The Future Of America?

With all the horrible things trump's done in only one day alone, and with Elon going full mask-off with his nazi salute, im honestly terrified about where my country is heading.

I'm really uncertain about the future of the united states and right now things seem incredibly bleak. What should I expect to come in the following years, and what should I do? Im scared.

Idiotic liberal parties of Europe

every single time it works like clockwork
>new elections come around in Europe
<wooah the polls look good this time, maybe we'll have a center left/centrist coalition
>in the month prior to the election youtube, tik tok and instagram get spammed by disinformation in said national language and far right shit
>the far right candidate gets 10 percent more votes than what he was supposed to
when will they ever learn that it's an obvious pattern at this point? the only way to actually """""fix""""" the problem would be to regulate social media companies which is impossible because
A) they're all based in America
B) they're the same people lobbying in the EU parliament and in national parliaments too
what choice remains for the liberal parties of Europe? are they going to get absorbed into the new fascist line? it feels odd because there's no imminent threat to the status quo so the rise of fascism seems very unnecessary. i'd definitely argue that the new rise of fascism is not supported by all porkies and it's mainly being pushed by the biggest porkies of all to safeguard their investements as much as possible.

Last thread: >>>/leftypol/1944320

But what is multipolarity? The emergence of China, the reassertion of Russia, the rise of regional powers like India, Brazil, and South Africa, among others, suggest a new global development, but is it towards a world where multiple powers exist in a state of relative equilibrium, hence challenging the unipolar hegemony led by the United States post-Cold War, or Capitalism 2: Electric Boogaloo - Neo-Dengism Edition?

To what extent is cheering on this developing state of affairs just capitalist nationalism? If the whole thrust of socialism is now simply competition between capitalist states, what becomes of the classical socialist goals of workers' control of the means of production, and abolishing class society?

Given that Russia/Iran (two of the 'multipolar' pillars) have thrown Syria under a bus, this thread is more important than ever. Syria was a secular socialist state that has been destroyed by jihadist terrorists. And no, it's not "campism" to support Syria. Syria was actually deserving of solidarity.

AMOC collapse

Several new studies with different methodologies suggest the AMOC will collapse by 2050.

https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.11738
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-39810-w
https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adk1189

This means massive changes in precipitation and temperature everywhere around the world. Attached are the effects on temperature and precipitation under an AMOC collapse with doubled Co2 ppm.

What are the political implications of this?

CONTRA BEHAVIORAL GENETICS

Hello, anons, I'm creating this topic because is something of a personal matter involved. I was wandering if it is possible to a person radically change their personalities, to a person becoming more intelligent _after childhood_, you see I read plenty of behavioral genetics books that pretty much says that we are who we are because of our genes, fair enough I don't fully deny that genes do nods us to certain behavior or capacity, but at the same time I think the implications of behavioral genetics are very powerful in a bad way, like we are fated to be who we are without much choice. Anyway, does anyone knows books or people that argues for the contrarian side? That argue that it's possible to change and that we are not set in stone, maybe I'm being delusional I don't know.

I want to understand female POV

Im a man but I want to understand socialism\communist\ far-left ,from a woman's pov. Who knows, maybe reincarnation is real and I'll get isakaid as a girl next time around…
For example I support Stalinism over Trotskyism merely because it's "much more manly" : stalinism conjures images of bearded men toiling in mines, oil fields, forestry labor. agrarianism is much more feminine tho, at least according to propaganda? the classic wheat-field peasant woman postcard. But when it comes to lumberjacking, landscaping, heavy forestry labor,it's a man, right?
What is it like being a woman who supports the far left? for me the (far left) is attractive because it's manly. capitalism, liberalism is effeminate: the weak ,and the fat, aren't weeded out, there's no secret police butchering traitors..

>raises the rent repeatedly in a short time frame
>family owned butcher shop that was loved by everyone in town is now barely scraping by after rent rises
>butcher begs landlord to stop
>lol k landlord increases rent anyway
>butcher shuts up shop
>the storefront stays vacant for SIX FUCKING MONTHS. This landlord would rather get nothing and damn near send an entire family homeless than not get the most competitive rent rate.
>new butcher comes in, making even less profit than the last guy, works absurd hours and can’t afford to hire full time staff.
>Every acquaintance I have asked about working retail/hospitality in this area, mentions that the small business they work for has a massive turnover rate bc they hardly train staff and they can only afford to hire the bare min peeps to stay open so they can pay rent.
>we went from having open markets to only franchise grocery stores.
>Even the big chain clothes stores have 70% turnover rates due to HR justifying their jobs by setting impossible to meet sales KPIs for brick and mortar staff.
>It’s not even profitable to be a business owner here, most owners buy in for 3-6 months, realise they are risking going into debt or scraping and sell their business to the next sucker.
>no consistent idea what each store is serving due to constant management changes, one manager might try to flog cigarettes at the minimart, the next opts to put in a crypto machine.

And for the absolute cherry on top.

The Revolutionary Criticism of Bourgeois Science vs. The Reactionary Attack on Science In General

The Revolutionary Criticism of Bourgeois Science vs. The Reactionary Attack on Science In General

Institutions responsible for empirical collection of data and construction of experiments, calling themselves scientific, pretend to be apolitical when really they are merely depoliticized. Apoliticality is an impossible ideal of being above all political bias, and self-described "apolitical" science is only capable of imagining itself outside the network of political and economic incentives constituting class society without actually being so in practice, subject as it is to the need for funding and grants from groups with interests, whether governmental or corporate in nature. This is called "depoliticized" because it involves individuals and institutions blinding themselves to the political and class (economic) content of their own work, and confusing that with the absence of objectively existing and difficult to get rid of bias, incentives, and interests. These biases, incentives, and interests cannot be gotten rid of through the simple process of depoliticization however, and can only be gotten rid of politically, through revolution, which is the heart of the paradox.

However, the revolutionary attack on empirical science as it exists in bourgeois society should not be confused with the reactionary attack on science, which criticizes science in bourgeois society from the standpoint of preserving traditions, superstitions, and forms of ignorance that have already been dissolved or are daily being dissolved. It is very easy for the former revolutionary criticism to be conflated with and accused of being the latter reactionary criticism, and for the latter reactionary criticism to disguise itself as the former revolutionary criticism.

This is a crucial distinction because there’s a tendency, especially in liberal circles, to lump all criticisms of contemporary science together as "anti-science." By framing criticisms of how science functions within capitalist society as a rejection of science itself, the liberal view deflects any meaningful engagement with the real issues at stake—such as who controls scientific funding, whose interests are prioritized in research, or how contemporary scientific institutions are a product of and used to maintain capitalism.

Mandarin can be a second kind of dominant language but there character system is awfully screwy, when the majority of the world works of the Roman alphabet. Whereas, the Roman alphabet employs no character marks, and English employs no character marks, thus for, English is the most perfect Roman language.

China has made AI open-source, cheap and efficient.

https://venturebeat.com/ai/open-source-deepseek-r1-uses-pure-reinforcement-learning-to-match-openai-o1-at-95-less-cost/
<Based on the recently introduced DeepSeek V3 mixture-of-experts model, DeepSeek-R1 matches the performance of o1, OpenAI’s frontier reasoning LLM, across math, coding and reasoning tasks. The best part? It does this at a much more tempting cost, proving to be 90-95% more affordable than the latter.
<Specifically, where OpenAI o1 costs $15 per million input tokens and $60 per million output tokens, DeepSeek Reasoner, which is based on the R1 model, costs $0.55 per million input and $2.19 per million output tokens.
https://xcancel.com/DrJimFan/status/1881353126210687089
<DeepSeek-R1 not only open-sources a barrage of models but also spills all the training secrets. They are perhaps the first OSS project that shows major, sustained growth of an RL flywheel.

Read the paper yourself. https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1
>Reasoning tasks: (1) DeepSeek-R1 achieves a score of 79.8% Pass@1 on AIME 2024, slightly surpassing OpenAI-o1-1217. On MATH-500, it attains an impressive score of 97.3%, performing on par with OpenAI-o1-1217 and significantly outperforming other models. (2) On coding-related tasks, DeepSeek-R1 demonstrates expert level in code competition tasks, as it achieves 2,029 Elo rating on Codeforces outperforming 96.3% human participants in the competition. For engineering-related tasks, DeepSeek-R1 performs slightly better than DeepSeek-V3, which could help developers in real world tasks.
>Knowledge: On benchmarks such as MMLU, MMLU-Pro, and GPQA Diamond, DeepSeek R1 achieves outstanding results, significantly outperforming DeepSeek-V3 with scores of 90.8% on MMLU, 84.0% on MMLU-Pro, and 71.5% on GPQA Diamond. While its performance is slightly below that of OpenAI-o1-1217 on these benchmarks, DeepSeek-R1 surpasses other closed-source models, demonstrating its competitive edge in educational tasks.

The newest model R1 is not paywalled and registration is free. Is there any doubt that China is socialist at this point? After seeing what's going on with Xiaohongshu, following what's happening since the centenary of the CPC (green energy production, 15-minute city policy, social cohesion and harmony, more and more automatization and great projects of transformation of nature, like the Taklamakan geen belt, liberation of productive forces and more free and leisure time for the Chinese citizens… I'm so sorry I ever doubted.

Greetings, comrades. Leftypedia, the radical encyclopedia, should be back in a usable state. We have more moderators, which will help with spam from now on, and images are slowly being repopulated for your viewing pleasure. The new domain has been up and running for a while at https://wiki.leftypol.org, and we've imported the vast majority of content that was on the old site while adding a lot of new stuff. I hope that Anons can come back and fill in any content that was lost.

For those unaware, Leftypedia is an original /leftypol/ project dedicated to combating the disinformation of mainstream media and academic sources, as well as discussing leftist history, theory, and practice from a multi-sectarian viewpoint. We welcome additions from different leftist perspectives provided that they are properly sourced and well argued.

Hello /leftypol/ users. This is a thread to post ordinances, i.e. ad hoc rules voted on by the modocracy, which are not covered explicitly by the rules in rules.html, though most are arguably applications or clarifications of actions prohibited by the existing rules. Any posts violating these ordinances will be removed, and possibly banned at the mods discretion. This post will be periodically updated to reflect new ordinances, or to remove old ones.
  1. H*z is banned. Any mention of, depiction of, video, audio, or image (including memes) of, or related to, the individual known as Adam Tahir (more commonly known as Haz Al-Din), including associated projects such as the media collective "Infrared", or the US-based "American Communist Party" founded in 2024, etc. are BANNED.

Hey everyone, so I was told it would be for the best to make a new thread and that's what I'll do. I'll upload some updated artwork too and some other stuff that I'm sure you'll like

Old OP:
Sup everyone, for a while I've been working on this comic idea and I would like to share some stuff I've been cooking up for it.

The setting is in Mexico City and the protagonist is a working-class, Nahua girl, living in a working-class neighborhood. This comic will explore issues regarding gentrification, child labor, systemic violence, class struggle, and different kinds of discrimination. Think of it as a social commentary and slice-of-life comic.

Sadly, I'm drawing this on my free time in between work and my studies, so the process is slow, but I'll try to release the first chapter sooner than later.

Here are the character sheets of the three protagonists, I posted them in the previous thread but they are now all complete and updated. Also, a neat drawing I did some time ago as an extra.

Finally, I will try to do the comic both in English and Spanish.

Fucked up report: the UN is actually fighting against terrorist for the first time

Apparently, the UN is working alongside the Congolese army to prevent the m23 terrorist group from advancing into Goma—a city near the Congo-Rwandan border. Reports have found that UN soldiers have fired artillery directly at M23 positions.

Other African countries (mainly Nigeria and South Africa) have confirmed that some of their soldiers have been killed trying to contain M23.

Personally, I think it’s kind of relieving knowing that the UN for once developed a spine to do anything right. I also am deeply concerned about another continental-scale war erupting in Africa like what happened during the Congo crisis.

As for the Sudan war, it looks like it’s going to see the RSF obliterated

Anime has lost its political energy

Anime, even as it is more popular and mainstream than ever before in the West, has really lost its relevance. What do I mean? Anime doesn't really inspire people anymore. It's not a statement about its quality, but I mean its real life impact.

In the 70s, 80s and 90s anime was almost a youth movement. In the Philipines, Voltes V was a symbol against the Marcos Regime and was banned because of this. Gundam inspired millions, it caused massive quasi-political rallies of young people who followed the show's idea of a new generation building things better. The police literally had to shut this down. Then by the 2000s there was Haruhi and so on which, if maybe not so political, really did get people out onto the streets and again got the police called on them. Conventions were a serious culture. Even if anime at this point was really inbred, it still brought people out. But nowadays there's no such thing. It's not really that subversive or exciting. Conventions go on but they aren't like what they were (no yaoi paddles). We do still get like loads of children wearing Demon Slayer cosplay but it's not like Yamato. There's this energy that just isn't there anymore.

Perhaps this is because in Japan itself the street movement has died down and become so neutered? It's sort of related to how anime has lost its left wing creators. The people working in the 80s grew up in a really radical time where socialism and anti-imperialism were normal and most people directly interacted with that crowd. Naturally, even if works weren't explicitly socialist, the attitude was reflected. Nowadays that political movement is completely dead. Radicalism is hated in modern Japan. Serious topics are still covered in progressive ways, but something is lost. I don't know, lets take season 2 of GITS SAC where Hideo Kuze is just openly right, the show tells you he is correct. And then in Psycho Pass which is only 10 years later but with a completely different set of people making it who have a different philosophy (the director only really started working in the 2000s), the bad guy just does bad things and is a psychopath, and then the only reasonable option is to uphold the system when given a chance to change it. Maybe the issue here is just GITS is much better written, but I think this can explain a sort of change in anime.

It's not that radicalism can't be shown since the 2000s, its just they are always single characters acting as lone terrorists. I think the shift happened around Code Geass and Death Note. It's a shift to lone wolf protagonist fighting against the system practically on their own and who is importantly 100% morally wrong (even if their grievances are understandable). The reason behind this is because radicalism in Japan has become lone-wolf, short sighted, and right wing. Basically incel radicalism. There's no more communist revolution or even Mishima to show in anime, only losers burning down animation studios and maybe doing something cool and killing the ex PM. Of course there still are anime that go against this trend. But if anime is the base and anime fans are the superstructure, anime as a whole has bent the superstructure away from collectivism and real life stuff.

Yes this is rather vulgar and not essay quality but I was just thinking about this and needed to write it down. Also I was thinking after watching a video, why did 4chan hate IBO so much. That show was actually really good but they despised it. IDK.

Scientific Anti-Inellectualism by Marxists

How do Marxists cope with the fact that despite trying to delegitimize “bourgeois science” it has successfully marched on to reveal the nature of reality?

Recently, I remembered Lenin‘s polemic against Ernst Mach. Mach inspired figures like Albert Einstein who was influenced by Mach‘s claim that motion of bodies should be conceived of relatively instead of absolutely and went on to create one of the most ground breaking theories that not only explained known phenomena in physics but also predicted various phenomena that were discovered only later on. How could people who subscribe to an allegedly materialist philosophy that prides itself with being scientific not recognize the anti-intellectualism of condoning a mere peasant (Lenin) only educated in political ideology writing a polemic against an actual scientist with a blatant political agenda? Lenin saw Mach as a threat to his conception of materialism and subsequently Marxism and therefore sought to invalidate Mach‘s claims. Poorly so, in my opinion. Besides the needless insults that made him look childish he simply misunderstood Mach. Mach did not deny the existence of a reality outside of the mind but that science can‘t meaningfully describe reality beyond in terms of sense experience. Matter to him was a useful construct of the mind but amounts to nothing more than a metaphysical stipulation. Mach‘s concerns were epistemological and had a prescriptive purpose for how to conduct science. He still believed that an objective reality independent of our mind existed, therefore it‘s not appropriate to call him a subjective idealist like Berkley was. In hindsight, Lenin‘s reaction is no better than the church attacking scientists as a threat response to their belief system but also political power. Cockshott himself spoke about how Marxism in the 20th century has made a retreat from science and focused overwhelmingly on philosophy precisely because of this fear that science’s alleged bourgeois influence makes it fake. And honestly, how many of you can claim to be thoroughly educated on science and don‘t merely rest on philosophical and political writings? Recently, I watched a video by TheFinnishBolshevist on Bukharin where he addressed a statement on physics based on dialectical materialism, stating things that are plainly wrong and solely informed by philosophy.

So I ask you:
Do you recognize the danger of scientific anti-intellectualism in Marxism that was already visible in your great figures and continues in supposed materialists having no scientific education to speak of?

Do you recognize the hubris in thinking that you are in accordance with science merely by virtue that your ideology labels itself as scientific?

Do you acknowledge the fact that Marxism has never achieved the status of a science and has only interpreted history and constructed various untested theories so far?

I'm here so you guys scream at me to try to convince me to use anything but a noobuntu distro.

After support for W10 ends I'm switching my 14 years old home desktop computer into something a bit more recent, and I'm genuinely considering using GNU+Linux as my "main driver" as kids say nowadays.

I have a lot of experience using Mint as that was my distro of choice for nearly 14 months, I think Cinnamon is an eyesore but otherwise it just werks and I could do almost everything I wanted to do except running Game Maker Studio 2 which is only available on Ubuntu according to the devs.

I'm considering using Kubuntu since KDE Plasma looks sick and it's basically Ubuntu so I can consoom my noob gamedev kit in peace.

As an addendum I hate "rolling distros". Manjaro is an abomination where things just werk against you if you're not a giga turbonerd who's on the computer 24/7 and derives sexual pleasure from fixing tech issues.

What's the difference between being a Communist and a Trekkie

Is Star Trek a valid leftist dog whistle?

Put another way, socialist and Communist ideas are unacceptable in Burgerstan, but Star Trek is one of the most quintessentially American shows, despite featuring as its hero a society that has effectively abolished need and want, and for all-intents and purposes, is classless.

If Rightoids can appropriate Pepe the Frog, can leftists appropriate Jean-Luc Picard?

/polyBRCIS/ - Multipolar economies and BRICS

QUICK RUNDOWN:
BRICS, an acronym for Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, is an economic bloc aiming to reduce dependence on Western financial institutions and promote a multipolar world order. This movement seeks to challenge the dollar-dominated global economy by fostering regional trade alliances, creating alternative payment systems, and expanding economic cooperation among developing nations. Sanctions on Russia, particularly after its actions in Ukraine, and policies during the Trump era—such as trade wars and unilateral decisions—accelerated the push for financial independence from Western systems like SWIFT and the IMF. This shift is reshaping globalism, as countries increasingly prioritize regional trade partnerships and economic self-reliance over integration into a U.S.-led global system. As BRICS expands and champions its own financial mechanisms, the dollar’s role as the global reserve currency faces challenges, reducing its dominance and potentially fragmenting the global economy into autocratic and regional economic blocs.

NOW & Trump's USA:
President Donald Trump's second term, beginning in January 2025, has been marked by a pronounced shift toward economic isolationism, exemplified by the imposition of 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, set to take effect on February 1, 2025.This protectionist stance is intended to address issues such as drug trafficking and illegal immigration. In response, Mexico has emphasized its sovereignty and independence, signaling a potential reevaluation of its economic strategies. Facing these tariffs, Mexican businesses are exploring alternative markets in Central America and the Caribbean to mitigate the impact of U.S. trade policies. For instance, companies like Cemex are considering significant investments in the U.S. to align with Trump's pro-business approach, while also seeking to strengthen trade ties within the region. This shift reflects a broader trend where countries are increasingly focusing on regional economic cooperation and self-reliance, potentially leading to a decline in globalism and a move toward more autocratic economic blocs. The imposition of tariffs and the subsequent realignment of trade relationships are contributing to a fragmentation of the global economy, with countries prioritizing regional partnerships over broader international agreements.

Is queer culture basically materialist LARPing?

I don't mean this to come across as an anti-LGBT post, it's just something I've noticed, The people queers "look up to"(such as po-stars for e.g) are not only just mostly dead, but they never actually had a clear personal image of them beyond a specific media image. It's not like growing up in a ethnic neighborhood where maybe a certain dialect and specific past times are internalized through osmosis as you grow up. There's no actual thread between anything that happens now and what it's aping.
In a lot of theoretical contexts, the idea of looking to the past for some kind of identity would be seen as intrinsically reactionary, And the fact that for gays, it's all this totally commodified postmodern hodgepodge of stereotypes distilled into a consumer identity just makes it worse. There's no organic process of a culture reproducing itself across generations and developing with the times. Instead, there's literally just images on a TV screen or in a magazine that some people decide to identify with.
The impression I get is that queers and such are just a modern LARPers rather then a genuine culture or subculture

Anyone else worried about mass repression against student activists in the next four years?

Trump already said he’s willing to deport any foreign university student who shows solidarity with the Palestinian resistance. Multiple colleges including NYU and Columbia have instituted extremist Zionist policies which prohibit Palestine solidarity activism (NYU even went so far as to make any criticism of Zionism equivalent to antisemitism).

Is there anything we can do to stop this? Do you think repression against students will get worse?

It's time for direct action against ICE

Leftypol, the situation for immigrants is reaching a peak fascist situation under the Trump regime. He has signed an executive order allowing ICE to raid churches, hospitals, and schools. His brownshirts are eagerly ready to report undocumented immigrants. We need to draw resources and manpower away from ICE by flooding the system with fake tips!
