The FBI Is Trying to Unmask the Registrar Behind Archive.Today
About a week ago, the X account belonging to Archive posted a link to a federal subpoena, which is dated October 30th. The subpoena, which was originally spotted by a German news site, is for a Canadian web registration company called Tucows, and demands that the company turn over “customer or subscriber name, address of service, and billing address” as well as an extensive list of other information related to the “customer behind archive.today.”

California Supreme Court strikes down warning on LAPD citizen complaint forms

Salted Field (TheIronFelix x CPUSAnon Dark Yaoi Fanfic) CH. 1

(Sorry for how long it took! I got the flu over last week and I've been having trouble getting my stimulants, I will have CH.2 done by either today or maybe thursday/friday!)

Felix’s breath hung heavily in the air; it was cold. Oh, so cold. The bitter January air had made these excursions increasingly painful, but Felix took it for what it was. It was a test of his resolve; he was hardening himself for the revolution. By the time he was done with it all, he’d be ready; he’d be Slovo resurrected. Besides, every cadre leader needed their own experience.

He was dressed head-to-toe in all black, even swapping out his signature white mask, which had made him so popular last Sizzle. There was no place for recognition here, even if his adoring followers would lavish the thought of getting an autograph from TheIronFelix. His clothes were heavy and obscured the dainty frame recovering from years of sedentary, skinny-fat existence. Only in these recent months had he gotten lean, possessed with a manic drive that he could only reason was the spirit of the ANC flowing through him.

His target came into view; that tall, familiar frame was silhouetted in the blinds. He could make out the size of his arms, the messiness of his short brown hair… God, Felix could picture him perfectly. CPUSAnon was a sight to behold. He’d been following him home from his shifts at the Grocery Store for the past week. During the day, he’d sit across the street, staring in through the windows as discreetly as he could. He'd had a perfect view of the cashier aisles. It’d taken Felix a while to pull all of this off, and in that interim, he’d had to forego namefagging on /USAPol/. He’d been yearning. He needed to triumph over CPUSAnon; he needed to humiliate him for the world to see. HE needed to see it, most of all. Only then could the revolution continue.

The small ground-story apartment that CPUSAnon lived in was quite small, but there was enough distance between the bedroom and front door that Felix could get in clandestinely. Felix saw his chance present itself as CPUSAnon turned his back and went to the bathroom. It’d taken him more than one try, but a few days ago Felix had finally memorized the lock’s pins. With a small sequence of clicks, Felix entered, and as he crouch-walked inside, he felt warmth envelop him. God, it smelled heavenly in there. It smelled of the decaPost too long.

is douglas murray a israeli asset?
YES

>The truth that Douglas Murray doesn’t want you to know is that he is directly an Israeli asset.


>This isn’t journalism; we’re talking about people who claim to be independent critical thinkers offering their services as assets of a foreign power. So much so that he received an award from the Israeli president for services in propaganda to Israel during the genocide in Gaza. Douglas Murray was gushing with pride when he said it brings him great joy to align with Israel.


>While Murray has recently become more vociferous in his support for the genocidal Israel, his relationship is far from new. Over a decade ago, in 2014, at the time of a genocidal onslaught against Gaza, Douglas Murray rallied around to provide his services to Israel.


>In a leak of emails from Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations at the time, Ron Prozner, it has been revealed that Douglas Murray was drafting speeches for this Israeli government figure. In the email, Douglas Murray wrote to Ron Prozner, “Dear Ron, very good to speak earlier. I am pasting in here my first draft ideas. It’s probably slightly long and I’ve put in some more diplomatic things than needed, but I think I’ve got all the points discussed. The title of the email was draft and it included a speech for Ron Prosner to deliver at the United…”

Nations are defending Israel and its activities in Gaza. In his speech, Douglas Murray even used the following phrasing: “We Israelis have learned to live with the realities around us.
We know who we are. Does Douglas Murray, the alleged British patriot, know who he is? He’s an asset of a foreign power.”

>There are more sickening emails sent from Douglas Murray to Israel’s ambassador at the UN. In these emails, he praises Prosna’s work and goes to great lengths to prove his loyalty to Israel. He boasts about his involvement in a fundraising campaign for Israeli military occupation forces with an organisation previously exposed here at Doubledown News, the Association for the Well-being of Israel Soldiers. This charity actively aids Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza by supporting Israeli soldiers.

Border patrol agents fired upon during immigration raid in Chicago, according to DHS
https://archive.ph/Txym1
>A Homeland Security official said someone fired shots at U.S. Border Patrol agents in Chicago on Saturday, the latest in a series of clashes between residents and federal agents during an immigration enforcement blitz that has now lasted two months.

>Officials said that no Border Patrol agents were injured and no one had been arrested. The incident happened on a day when federal officers were out in force in the Little Village neighborhood, an area southwest of downtown Chicago that has long been home to many Mexican immigrants


>A video posted on social media showed residents confronting masked federal agents who were detaining someone along the side of the road. Several minutes into the video, a burst of three apparent gunshots could be heard nearby, followed by another. The video did not make clear where the apparent shots came from.


>The Department of Homeland Security said that “an unknown male driving a black Jeep fired shots at agents and fled the scene.” The Chicago Police Department said its officers “responded to a call of shots fired at federal agents” and helped secure the area, but the department referred other questions to federal officials.

‘I don’t want to work; I want to join the party’: China’s viral cry for stability

<On Douyin, millions joke about quitting work to “serve the people”. But the humour masks real exhaustion — and a growing belief that life inside the system is safer than life outside it. Lianhe Zaobao’s China Desk looks into this trend.

But since they've gone full mask off, the hatred and paranoia that drives modern 'conservatism' will stress and kill its consumers at an accelerated rate.

It seems like most people idealize their upbringing and continue the cycle of dysfunction, but there are instances where children try to reason with parents after recognizing the destructive cycle. In this instance, spite has nothing to do with attempting reasoned dialogue. It's difficult if a child is afraid of guardians when they are still young but it is possible. Maybe being autistic makes me an exception, idk, but they raised us Catholic but didn't live it. When I asked why their observance was outward and performative, using kinder framing from Scripture itself, it gave them pause. Before they died they were different people, less indifferent and more compassionate. I mention this because of the movement to brand "empathy" a sin. Indifference and callousness are opposed to compassion / empathy. This is well illustrated by the parable of the Good Samaritan. But the right could care less. Now they're going full mask off with their hatred and bigotry. I think it's a good thing that they reveal who they really are.

>wow, maybe you finally get it. capitalism ≠ markets.
The existence of markets and commodity exchange predates capitalism, but what defines capitalism is the dominance of capital as a social relation, the subordination of production to capital for profit mediated through wage labor. Mercantilist monopolies like the East India Company were part of the transitional phase where merchant capital and colonial exploitation helped generate the primitive accumulation necessary for the emergence of capitalist relations.

>why are you asking me to remember when ive been the one to remind you that monopoly never originated from markets, but from state intervention?

Wrong. Standard Oil Company rose following the logic of capitalist competition; it acquired other refineries, built pipelines, created its own distribution system, and obtained secret rebates from railroads, giving it huge competitive advantages. International Harvester, 1902–1910s, was formed by merging five major agricultural machinery companies, controlling 85% of the U.S. farm equipment market. Cornelius Vanderbilt, as a railroad company, used predatory pricing, secret rebates, and collusion with Standard Oil for favorable shipping rates to push competitors out. Any capitalist who wins in competition will act to consolidate and dominate the market. This interest in accumulating capital also leads the largest capitalists to collaborate with each other in cartels for mutual benefit, manipulating everything to serve the interests of capital accumulation. There are barriers to entry for a new company; this requires initial capital investment. If there is already market consolidation, this becomes worse, with physical limits creating delimited zones where large companies will act oligopolistically. Not to mention that the difference in wealth will influence local politics, because private property and the circulation of capital require a state with courts, a legal system for judicial processes, bureaucracy to maintain this private property and capital circulation, and repression against the propertyless and other competing capitalists. Otherwise, the formation of armed paramilitary groups and militias that will act as the state will emerge, receiving funds from other capitalists, or these armed groups will begin demandingPost too long.

Unmasking Imperial Hypocrisy: Trump’s 2025 Venezuela Escalation Is a Sham for Oil

On October 16, 2025, Donald Trump’s second term ignited a reckless campaign against Venezuela, greenlighting covert CIA operations, deploying 4,000 Marines and F-35 jets to the Caribbean, and launching strikes on Venezuelan vessels that have killed more than 27 people—all framed as a fight against drugs and migration. This is no noble mission: It is a recycled imperial plot to seize the world’s largest oil reserves, draped in fabricated threats. The U.S. narrative paints Nicolás Maduro as the mastermind of gangs like Tren de Aragua (TdA), but the CIA’s history of enabling criminal networks tells a different story. Massive disparities in the global economy combined with selective policing contributed to these gangs’ spread, while U.S. banks launder billions in cartel cash, exposing the hypocrisy of Trump’s “security” crusade. In 2019, Trump hesitated without a solid pretext or figurehead; now, with tailored narratives and a charismatic proxy, he is poised to strike, driven by oil lust and geopolitical games—not justice. In 2019, Trump toyed with invading Venezuela but backed off. His (now indicted) adviser John Bolton pushed hard for regime change, admitting to plotting coups globally, including in Venezuela. Trump saw invasion as “cool,” viewing Venezuela’s 300 billion barrels of oil as practically American. So why the pause? He lacked a convincing excuse or a compelling opposition leader to justify the risks.

An invasion would have violated the UN Charter, barring force against sovereign states without Security Council approval, which Maduro’s allies Russia and China would veto. Domestically, the War Powers Resolution required congressional consent for sustained conflict, absent an imminent threat Venezuela did not pose. Regional allies in the OAS and Lima Group opposed military action, fearing refugee surges and anti-American backlash. Public support was weak—only 30% of Americans backed intervention—and Trump, eyeing 2020 re-election, could not afford a quagmire like Iraq. The opposition’s Juan Guaidó was a dealbreaker: an unknown “interim president” with no charisma or electoral legitimacy. Trump called him “weak,” and Guaidó’s April 2019 uprising flopped, exposing him as a flimsy U.S. proxy.

Without a strong pretext or a likable puppet, Trump previously relied on sanctions—economic warfare that slashed oil revenues Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Two issues. First: I can't cite anything off hand but Marx and Lenin sometimes spoke of old things returning with further development like ancient democracy or communal property except of course they wouldn't be exactly the same more like an echo. Second: As far as I know the radlib types misinterpret tribal gender models and two spirit was made up by some academic in the 90s. Seems to me most "third genders" is just a role for effeminate males which I don't think gender activists would like very much.

Anyway we should embrace some hunter-gatherer culture like singing and dancing around fires and wearing animal masks and honesatly who needs to count over seven there's way too many numbers please get rid of them thank you.

2. personal accomplices in crime

3. US soldiers who committed violence against 3rd worlders

I'm glad people here are going mask off on their support for ᴉuᴉlossnW but no, it's just liberalism turned on its head. It rejects all the bourgeois enlightenment ideology in favor of national mythology and facade of a great leader, which cannot sustain itself. It does not resemble any form of the Marxist/Hegelian positivism.

>Nietzsche was an innovator in this direction

Yeah, he loved religious fables, racial identity and nationalism. That's totally the gist of Nietzsche's work.

No, that's what you think it is from hearsay, which was born from his Nazi sister taking ownership of his work after his death and publishing will to power with weird Zazi shit injected into it that made it obviously falsified, especially since Nietzsche specifically criticized Wagner's nationalism, which served as the aesthetic foundation for Hitler's ideology, as entirely fake. He wrote an entire book on Wagner, because he knew him personally.


>There is literally nothing wrong with sex as transaction
>as a transaction
The point is to end that "transaction." Prostitution only exists as long as there is property to exchange. Without that, there's just sex-love or voluntary sex for pleasure. This is why when anarchists go on another pro-sex worker rant and how it will still exist in their commune, they don't know what they're talking about. If there is nothing to exchange, there is no "sex work."

>I believe in earnest the whole moralizing prostitution thing is really a mask for gender narratives

Not really. It's mostly a concern for the circumstance that cause a women to seek prostitution. Even in the developed world, the vast majority of prostitution is coerced by economic factors, like poor immigrants being funneled into sex trafficking. Poptimism does nothing to address this, instead trying to disguise the immiseration with yassss queen ideology.

Some reject it because they think it's icky and offends their moral system, but those people are libs that don't care about the broader social reasons for its existence. They're religious moralizers.

>No matter how the moralizers try to frame it as being about whether sex can be "work" or not, in reality, the activity itself, and its semantics, are irrelevant in terms of human suffering.

I agree that it's pedantic to argue whether they're proletarian or petit-bourgeois, but Marx and Engels specifically pointed at them as lumpenproletariat, or part of the dangerous classes. Engels went on to say that prostitutes primarily exploit men in his work "Origin of the Family," as they extract money from Johns and this is something that is true even for "lesser" sex work like strippers. They subsist on identifying rich clients and extracting money from them (something they brag about, if you've ever known any), which is how it's "exploitive" or in other words, not an incel argument. Read some stories from people who visited the legal red-light districts and they rob people just to walk in.

You could argue that Marx and Engels were too dismissive of prostitutes, but I don't actually see an argument against the transactional nature of their existence and so it would quickly go into moral grounds. Something else I noticed is that pro-sex work people never really defend street walking, betraying tPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Well he hasn't been in office for a year and we're already heading into a recession, which will turn into a full blown crash when the ai bubble pops. So he, and by extension the Republicans, is going to be taking the blame for it.


I'm genuinely interested in how the rest of Trump's presidency is going to play out. He went mask off in ways he never did in his first term that makes me wonder what kind of political fallout he's going to have later in his term.

I thinks Eco Umberto's text puts it pretty well. Some points I find disputable, but the most important part is
>ascism became an all-purpose term because one can eliminate from a fascist regime one or more features, and it will still be recognizable as fascist. Take away imperialism from fascism and you still have Franco and Salazar. Take away colonialism and you still have the Balkan fascism of the Ustashes. Add to the Italian fascism a radical anti-capitalism (which never much fascinated ᴉuᴉlossnW) and you have Ezra Pound. Add a cult of Celtic mythology and the Grail mysticism (completely alien to official fascism) and you have one of the most respected fascist gurus, Julius Evola.

So there is no point in making a rigid all-encompassing definition, but there is a list of traits which might describe this or that government/ideology/person to various degrees.
On the topic of current US government, I think at this point its pretty clear that mask of liberal democracy is off. More fascist than most agreed upon fascist regimes I would say, completely unbound by any pretenses of socialism or liberalism, as many fascist regimes were. The base is driven by pure cultural resentment, like even the classical scapegoating ala "you cant get job because immigrants are stealing them" seems to be barely there, there is just no effort to even pretend anything you do will improve lives of your supporters.

Boss of degrading sex-trade ring in Dubai's glamour districts unmasked by BBC

Charles Mwesigwa, who says he is a former London bus driver, told our undercover reporter he could provide women for a sex party at a starting price of $1,000 (£740), adding that many can do "pretty much everything" clients want them to.

Rumours of wild sex parties in the UAE emirate have circulated for years. The hashtag #Dubaiportapotty, which has been viewed more than 450 million times on TikTok, links to parodies and speculative exposés of women accused of being money-hungry influencers secretly funding their lifestyles by fulfilling the most excessive of sexual requests.

Our BBC World Service investigation was told the reality is even darker.

Young Ugandan women told us they had not expected to have to undertake sex work for Mr Mwesigwa. In some cases, they believed they were travelling to the UAE to work in places like supermarkets or hotels.

At least one of Mr Mwesigwa's clients regularly asks to defecate on the women, according to "Mia", whose name we have changed to protect her identity, and who says she was trapped by Mr Mwesigwa's network.

We have also discovered that two women linked to Mr Mwesigwa have died, having fallen from high-rise apartments. Although their deaths were ruled as suicides, their friends and family feel the police should have investigated further.

The short answer is that it's too soon to say.

The long answer is that the powers which subjugate Palestine and commit genocide there, and which subjugate Lebanon, Syria, Libya, and Iraq for the sake of uninterrupted genocide… also run the U.S., U.K., and EU. People in these places will find that allowing things to continue this way is not in their interests - "Israel" is a testing ground for, and global backer of, tyrannical state repression, destructive psyops, surveillance, and all kinds of nasty things like that… in addition to being a massive recipient of free stuff, an especially heinous situation for the U.S. which lacks public healthcare, welfare, & higher education. Trying to formulate what is going on as a distant spectacle is the wrong approach, because what we've witnessed is a result of global ethnosupremacist hegemony, and its impacts are felt even in the "first world."

In America, ICE abducts students off the street for "wrong think" about Palestine, the government intervenes to give TikTok to Larry Ellison, states suppress boycotts and education about Palestine, students are defamed and mass-arrested for opposing genocide. This is the tip of the iceberg in the U.S.
In the UK, grannies with signs are arrested for ""terrorism"" for holding placards saying they oppose genocide and support a group which periodically spraypaints weapons of war with discouraging messages. In Germany, protesters are battered by police, and large numbers of Jews are arrested, and have their assets seized by the German state for "anti-semitism" because they criticized the Zionist Entity.

If this is where it ends, then it isn't the fault of Yahya Sinwar. It's our fault for not intervening effectively to stop this tyranny even to save ourselves. By all means, this should be a tenuous situation - if we allow it to continue, then that is our failing. We are in an era of mask off Fascism (or "neoliberalism" or Zionist Imperialism or whatever you want to call it), and it necessitates things which are not easy or pleasant in response. There is little evidence that things will not continue to intensify again in western Asia, and the liberation of the "west" will be of great benefit to the middle east.

Thirty years ago, a peace-loving Austrian theologian spoke to Peter Thiel about the apocalyptic theories of Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt. They’ve been a road map for the billionaire ever since.

…to really grasp Thiel’s katechon-and-Antichrist schtick, you need to go back to the first major lecture of his doomsday road show—which took place on an unusually hot day in Paris in 2023. No video cameras recorded the event, and no reporters wrote about it, but I’ve been able to reconstruct it by talking to people who were there.

The venue was a yearly conference of scholars devoted to Thiel’s chief intellectual influence, the late French-American theorist René Girard. (Thiel identifies as a “hardcore Girardian.”) On the evening of the unpublicized lecture, dozens of Girardian philosophers and theologians from around the world filed into a modest lecture hall at the Catholic University of Paris. And from the dais, Thiel delivered a nearly hourlong account of his thoughts on Armageddon—and all the things he believed were “not enough” to prevent it.

By Thiel’s telling, the modern world is scared, way too scared, of its own technology. Our “listless” and “zombie” age, he said, is marked by a growing hostility to innovation, plummeting fertility rates, too much yoga, and a culture mired in the “endless Groundhog Day of the worldwide web.” But in its neurotic desperation to avoid technological Armageddon—the real threats of nuclear war, environmental catastrophe, runaway AI—modern civilization has become susceptible to something even more dangerous: the Antichrist.

According to some Christian traditions, the Antichrist is a figure that will unify humanity under one rule before delivering us to the apocalypse. For Thiel, its evil is pretty much synonymous with any attempt to unite the world. “How might such an Antichrist rise to power?” Thiel asked. “By playing on our fears of technology and seducing us into decadence with the Antichrist's slogan: peace and safety.” In other words: It would yoke together a terrified species by promising to rescue it from the apocalypse.

By way of illustration, Thiel suggested that the Antichrist might appear in the form of someone like the philosopher Nick Bostrom—an AI doomer who wrote a paper in 2019 proposingPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Hamas says it moves living Israeli captives to 3 handover locations
A Hamas source tells Al Jazeera the Palestinian group has moved the captives to locations in Gaza in preparation for their handovers.

The source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a Hamas delegation will meet the International Committee of the Red Cross tonight to agree on a mechanism for handing over the abductees, adding that the process will be carried out at three locations.

Hamas is in intensive contact with the mediating countries to refine the list of Palestinian prisoners to be released. Mediators are still working to reach a final prisoner list despite Israel’s rejection of several names, the source said.

Violent clashes at a pro-Palestinian rally in the Swiss capital of Bern this weekend left 18 law enforcement officers and two protesters injured and caused extensive property damage.

The unauthorised protest on Saturday afternoon drew more than 5,000 people including a large number clad in black and wearing masks who clashed with police and vandalised property.

“Law enforcement officers were also repeatedly attacked with dangerous objects” including construction equipment, furniture, rocks, bottles, fire extinguishers, fireworks and laser pointers, Bern police said in a statement.

so now its just an anti russian slur of the nafoids, and I guess they love how it roll off their tongue like the other word they're not allowed to say here
lovely how mask off they are, our mods must really love the polyps shitting up the thread


Israeli media commented on the spread of Hamas elements in the Gaza Strip: The movement has survived as an organization and authority.
Israeli figures and media outlets confirmed the failure of the war on the Gaza Strip, noting that Hamas has held firm as an authority and organization.

Avi Issacharoff, an expert on Palestinian affairs at the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper, told Israel's Channel 12 that "the number one goal set by the Israeli government two years ago, namely the overthrow of Hamas, has not been achieved." He added that "Hamas has held on as the authority in Gaza."

Issacharoff added that under the ceasefire, "Hamas militants are in the streets, deployed with their weapons, covering their faces with masks to prevent identification, wearing body armor, and demonstrating effective governance." "Hamas as an authority has held its own, and this is the reality we live in today," Issacharoff said.

In the same context, Israeli journalist and author Haim Levinson said: "Hamas has endured as an organization, and this is a proven fact. The organization remained organized from the ground up, with disciplined soldiers, and it did not collapse over two difficult years ."

Reserve Major General Yitzhak Brick confirmed in an interview with Israel News 24 that US President Donald Trump saved Israel from itself at the last minute, describing it as a "miracle."

He added, "Anyone who is talking today about continuing the war in Gaza, I want to remind you of what Eyal Zamir (Chief of Staff) said, and I said this before him: a death trap," noting that "the Israeli army was unable to defeat Hamas."

Brik pointed out that "the army cannot release the prisoners by force of arms, and we will lose hundreds of people," stressing, "We have lost the world and we will lose Israel's ability to confront the threats growing around us."

>I think "front group" is sort of how anti-communists would refer to them.
I think front group is kind of a universal description to describe when organizations make sub-groups to mask what org is behind it. I don't think it's really a bad deception either inherently and most importantly it works. That's why most religions and cults and stuff use this tactic because they know if they try to straight up recruit people with what their real beliefs or aims are, they might be put off. But then once you get people in on one level, you have more opportunity to indoctrinate them to be willing to accept the deeper levels. Again, I don't think there is anything inherently ethically wrong with the technique. It's a good strategy.

Availing myself of this opportunity, I am going to make our stand towards the relations with the ROK clearer.

We have no reason to sit together with it and will do nothing together with it.

I make clear that we will not deal with it at all.

In fact, we and the ROK have existed in the international community as two states over the last scores of years.

It is a stark reality that the two most hostile states on earth, two belligerent states, have been in acute confrontation on the Korean peninsula.

It was Syngman Rhee, the first president of the ROK, and his clique that rigged up a separate government on one half of the Korean peninsula in stubborn opposition to the aspirations of all the fellow countrymen to get rid of the tragedy of division imposed by foreign forces and live and develop independently on one territory.

In the first Constitution of the ROK fabricated and promulgated in July 1948, Syngman Rhee stipulated that “the territory of the ROK covers the Korean peninsula and its attached islands,” thus codifying its inborn nature which is the most hostile to our state.

Venezuela launches 'Barracks to the People' plan, offers military training to public amid Trump threats
Nearly a month ago, Washington deployed warships to international waters off Venezuela's coast, backed by F-35 fighters sent to Puerto Rico in what it calls an anti-drug and anti-terrorism operation.

Venezuelan Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino Lopez has accused Washington of waging "undeclared war" in the Caribbean, after US strikes killed over a dozen alleged drug traffickers off his country's coast.
Caracas also accused the United States of seeking regime change and stealing its oil and other resources.
In the crammed Petare neighborhood of Caracas, the main avenue was shut down for a day of mini-courses about weapons handling and other "revolutionary resistance" tactics.
"I'm here to learn what I need to learn to defend what is really important to me: my country, my homeland, my nation, Venezuela," said Luzbi Monterola, a 38-year-old office worker.
"I am afraid of nothing and no one."

<'Oil, gold, diamonds'

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro – who stands accused by Washington of running a drug cartel – has long sought to mobilize civilians in the escalating standoff.
The Petare neighborhood was once the launching point for protests against Maduro's reelection in July 2024, deemed fraudulent by the opposition and much of the international community.
After thousands of volunteers were summoned to military barracks last week for training, Maduro ordered the armed forces to go into the neighborhoods themselves.
But the show of force was subdued, with about 25 armored vehicles parading in the capital city and fewer trainees.

So the guy from that video who was shot in the head just died his family have announced.

Boniface Kariuki: Nairobi hawker who was shot in the head by police is dead
Boniface Kariuki, the hawker who was shot by police in the head in Nairobi during protests on June 17, 2025, is dead, the family has said.

The family spokesperson Emily Wanjira confirmed to NTV that Kariuki died on Monday.

Kariuki, a mask vendor, was shot in the head at point-blank range by a police officer during the protests that turned violent as the protesters engaged police officers in day-long running battles.

The demonstration was part of a growing call for justice for Albert Ojwang, the teacher and blogger who was taken from his home in Homa Bay and killed in police custody in Nairobi.

Kariuki has undergone two surgeries at Kenyatta National Hospital where he is admitted in ICU.


Protests are heating up in Kenya. a shooting yesterday and roaming armed gangs:
Kenya protesters clash with men wielding clubs
Kenyan protesters have clashed with club-carrying young men, believed to be loyal to the government, in the centre of the capital, Nairobi.
The demonstration, held in the wake of the death in custody 10 days ago of blogger and teacher Albert Ojwang, was called to demand the sacking of a top police officer.
Police initially said that Mr Ojwang died of self-inflicted wounds, but were forced to retract the statement after an autopsy found that it was likely he died after being assaulted. Two policemen have been arrested in connection with the death.

The protest comes amid simmering tension ahead of next week's first anniversary of the storming of parliament by demonstrators.
Earlier on Tuesday, there were pockets of violence in the capital's central business district when groups of young men riding motorbikes, armed with whips and clubs, attacked protesters.
Videos show the men - described locally as "goons" - seemingly working side-by-side with police, who fired teargas to try and disrupt the demonstrations.
The police have denied any link saying that it has "noted a group of goons armed with crude weapons, in today's protests… The service takes great exception and does not condone such unlawful groupings."

>Why the death of a blogger has put Kenya's police on trial

A vendor was shot during Tuesday's demonstration, sparking renewed outrage from Kenyans who accuse police of using excessive force against protesters.
Boniface Kariuki was reportedly selling masks when a uniformed police officer fired a bullet at close range, critically injuring him.
His father, John Kariuki, told local media that the bullet went through his head, just above the ear.

>are you suggesting Indian steelworkers are equally as productive as US ones? if so do you have any numbers to back that up?
Indian steelworkers are far more productive than American ones. Picrel 1 demonstrates this in vulgar bourgeois metrics cockshit would use. Jindal Steel's Odisha complex alone produces more tonnage than the 4 total rusted steel mills in ameriKKKa.
>it would help immensely if you named just a single example
All operations monopoly capital has set up in third-world. Read modern marxist theory of imperialism.
>are wheat farmers in say the Sahel region just as productive as those in the EU?
African agricultural proletarian is far more productive than the EU kulak who rake in subsidy and burn their product.
>if so, then why is Burkina Faso investing in MoPs for wheat production?
To break neocolonial dependency on massive subsidized French grain dumping.
>this is not the case in mining, nor in agriculture, nor in manufacture.
Utterly wrong. Capitalist everywhere sacrifice safety for maximizing surplus-value. You lie like capitalist workplace propaganda brochure. Proletarian subject to capitalist mining, agriculture, and manufacturing is forced to endure deadly conditions, grueling hours, and toxic exposures. I see proletarians bring own fans to factory. I worked at factory and had to dump toxic powders. They were too cheap to give us cheap masks. Every factory I've been, I sweating to death 12 hours long with no air conditioning. You are wrong. This is ameriKKKa btw.
The children and young people who are employed in transporting coal and iron-stone all complain of being overtired. Even in the most recklessly conducted industrial establishments there is no such universal and exaggerated overwork. The whole report proves this, with a number of examples on every page. It is constantly happening that children throw themselves down on the stone hearth or the floor as soon as they reach home, fall asleep at once without being able to take a bite of food, and have to be washed and put to bed while asleep; it even happens that they lie down on the way home, and are found by their parents late at night asleep on the road. It seems to be a universal pPost too long. Click here to view the full text.
