When was the last time
When was the last time the entire globe was united under one world empire? Has it been that way before? Has it been that the mode of production matched the state entity? It hasn't, so why the fuck would you want a communist revolution in a world divided by separate bourgeois nations? You'd have to fight through every single one independently as opposed to a unitary dictatorship of the bourgeois which will carry some degree of centralization that can be overthrown, the point is to let the biggest imperialist entity actually take over the world so then be overthrown by the workers worldwide in one tendency. Of course regions will still be pockets and it may lead to the worldwide dictatorship of the bourgeois to become destabilized and have others break away due to destabilization as goes a civil war, but they breakaway parts will always be smaller than the larger more centralized entity and the worker's rebellion will be able to crush them easily once it has defeated the primary bourgeois regime. What do you think? Is capital bound to never be fully in one regime? Maybe the whole world should've gone through unitary fascism to give some centralized character even if not fully nationalized the workers would only be fighting against the state entities of one. What I'm getting at is that if the bourgeois nations go through a process of natural selection, if capital in crisis can come out as victor (fascism) then there will be almost no divisive factors to prevent an uprising besides the sole structure of the instrument of state power being held by the bourgeois (the singular instrument rather than the multitude).

The blockades, which also disrupted highways connecting Santa Cruz and La Paz, are part of broader demands against President Luis Arce Catacora's government, accused of causing an economic crisis with dollar and fuel shortages due to declining gas production. The demonstrators, waving both Bolivian flags and the multicolored indigenous wiphala, demanded Arce’s resignation, labeling him a “traitor.”

Toronto city council passes controversial 'bubble zone' protest bylaw
The original version of the bylaw proposed by city staff was for a request-based system that would allow vulnerable institutions to apply for a 20-metre buffer zone around them. For that request to be granted, the owner of an institution would have had to prove it had been affected or targeted by a protest within the last 90 days. Councillors amended the bylaw motion Thursday, instead increasing the buffer zone to 50 metres, and removing the provision that an owner would need to prove they had been affected or targeted by a protest in their application. Once a location has a bubble zone, it will last for a year.

On May 19, Next abruptly closed its only directly owned factory with a recognised trade union at Next Manufacturing Ltd (NML) Katunayake, without proper notice, consultation and in violation of Sri Lankan labour law. Next told more than 1,400 workers by WhatsApp message that they had lost their jobs. A joint statement on Monday from the Free Trade Zones and General Service Employees Union (FTZ & GSEU), Clean Clothes Campaign, War on Want and Labour Behind the Label slammed the factory closure plan.

Stalemate near Tishreen dam between the SDF and the SNA.
Insurgency developments & germination in the coast.
Israel announces it's not withdrawing from the newly-acquired Syrian territories.
Al-Julani forms a new government, formally dissolves the former SAA and declares himself president. New Ministry of Defense and army so far is barely cohesive and resembles one of those countless joint operations rooms we've seen before.
HTS attacks Lebanese areas under the justification of "combating smuggling". Withdraws quickly.
Clashes in the Druze Damascus suburb of Jaramana that were quickly defused. Suwayda (majority Druze region south of Damascus) is still de-facto autonomous and controlled by armed Druze factions.
Massive uprising by the insurgents in the coastal regions that was quelled in around 4 days. Hundreds of military casualties on both sides. Insurgents go back to guerilla mode after.
Massacres of Alawites in the coastal regions during said uprising. At least 1000 civvies dead. HTS and Julani blame undisciplined SNA units and say they're gonna punish the perpetrators.
HTS and SDF sign memorandum for integration.

I'm highly suspicious of the sites ability to stay up in the future for various reasons, and even if it does, I'd feel better storing it all on an HD or something and would be willing to self host it should the need ever arise.

Personally, I think the proletarianization of the media, the academy and tech is based.
I want every writer, professional and code-monkey to be an immiserated prole who hates capitalism with a burning fire.
It starts small with generic anti-capitalism snuck in here and there. A generic fight against "the system" which can easily hijacked by fascism. But how long can the pressures of ideology hold against the falling rate of profit? The industrialization of knowledge production is inevitable. And sure the bosses will try to exercise control (as they do) and plenty of workers will be fired and have their work rewritten. But why bother censoring yourself when you're making minimum wage anyway?
So how will the bourgeoisie hold power when the workers are exposed to blatant Marxist propaganda everyday?
When the propagandists are as immiserated as the coal miners then the propaganda will reflect the interests of the miners, not the bourgeoisie.

Fuck Debord, Deleuze, Guattari, Adorno, Zizek, all the Frankfurt school, all other postmodernist, critical theory, all these indecipherable philosophers. I despise these social fascist lickspittles. Why are they even considered remotely socialist? It's like they didn't take a single lesson from The German Ideology, they read Marx encyclopedically but don't even pay attention to what he's saying! All they see is the long winded style of writing he inherited from Hegel and replicate that rather than spending a moment to realize that their philosophy is useless. Like liberals they pick out a few 'radical' sounding things and ignore the real work on political economy!
Their understanding of socialism is completely liberal because it is just taking the aesthetics and going 'Well, they had some good points. But I think we need a new way'. Liberal scum. Always they end up supporting NATO and social democracy, or they become ridiculous anarchists. The post-modernists have had a terrible effect on socialism. It is the ideology of neoliberal capitalism, incompatible with Marxism and communism. Post modernists need their delusions beaten out of them to show that the real world does have meaning. Postism is completely rubbish. All 'posts' are ridiculous theories, that included Post-colonialism. Fundementally they are bourgeois, because it is rejecting real progress.
All these lickspittles say is the most radical things ever. "Let's abolish capitalism and all exploitation! Let's abolish time! Let's abolish the current way we see the world!". But then they don't do anything about it! And lots of what they are asking for and conflating with the class struggle is ridiculous like paedophilia and time abolishing. These ones are the ideological fault for postisms and identity politics becoming such a big thing. Nobody real can read their work. Even Marx tried to make his work readable even though at times it is difficult. But they revel in how complex and difficult it is. This is for a reason - their audience is the petit-bourgeois, not the working class.
There has never been a good philosopher. Hegel might have been useful to Marx, but once Marx transcended him he should never be read (Lenin is wrong on this). The only real philosophers are the ones who are working in the struggle. The fascists should be ostracised and their books burned. I despise them and I am angered whenever I hear one of their evil names.

<It's kind of strange to say the least… to write "death to Islam" when in the Middle East they are killing followers of this religion, Gaza, Iraq? and then trying to hide your dislike you add "like any other religion" 😡
The movement of the declassed is completely cucked by feudal religious garbage, literally flooded with authors sucking their own cocks over "islamic anarchism", "christian anarchism", "anarcho judaism", what's next? What's next? Just following that logic there is no contradiction on "anarcho-jehovah's witness", "anarcho-Aum Shinrikyo" , "anarcho-O9A satanism" and so on. Anarchoids have lost their principles, back in the good old days they used to shoot priests and nuns in the spanish civil war. They only work on retarded vibes, that's literally the only way they "determine" if a thing is legitimate or not so they're bound to get fucked by entryists.
This is not just an issue with anarchoids, the same with MLs, ultras are still completely spot on with their critiques.

How should the secular international Communist left combat these powerful spooks? Or should they simply ignore it and focus on building the labor movement?
Zionazism
Zionazism seems schizo at first glance but it is just the logical endpoint of White supremacism, Christian supremacism, and European settler-colonialism: Jews have been knighted as "honorary" whites, and have been enlisted as crusaders against Muslims by white European Christians. It is an alliance of the two older Abrahamic faiths against the new one, and an alliance of the "true whites" and the "off whites" against the browns.How should the secular international Communist left combat these powerful spooks? Or should they simply ignore it and focus on building the labor movement?

when it presents itself at first it appears like a swan duckling bcus like, it's cute and it feeds on happy thoughts
it often starts appearing as an owl which starts to feed on emotions in general shaped as rodents, snakes, etc.
in it's creepiest shape it turns into a crow that eats eyes (in the literal and metaphorical sense)
i want to keep it sorta mysterious and have it appear in different contexts
for example in one episode sorta inspired in Pet Sematary and Resident Evil Code Veronica where there's a character inspired in Alexia Ashford but better written as a trans character at the end one of the main characters who is also trans has to kill them (there's a nietzchean murder cult involved i still need to workshop that episode part)
the main character is supposed to empathize but also can't let them live
so it's supposed to be a very emotional scene and at the end we just see a crow dive in presumably for the eyes.
i know it's edgy but the overall story it's for a game that started a bit edgier
and it also sorta started as an excuse to make a gun customization screen that lets me put a Glock 38 super conversion on a long Glock and customizable calibration for optics (like in Delta Force)
Gender Dysphoria Kyubey for game
Making a character like Kyubey for a game which is like a sometimes cutesy, often uncanny, disturbing enough character that only trans people can see and i want some feedback from others experience and how to make it like a lovecraftian entity that cis people can get sorta spooked by and trans people can feel at a deeper level.when it presents itself at first it appears like a swan duckling bcus like, it's cute and it feeds on happy thoughts

In 2005, Öcalan embraced Murray Bookchin’s “ecological libertarian municipalism,” focusing on decentralized communes and environmental protection rather than class-based national liberation. This turn treats ecology as a substitute for the core Capital–Labor conflict and sidelines the broader Kurdish national question. It risks entrenching divisions between Kurds in Turkey, Syria, and Iraq, as oil‑rich Iraqi Kurds pursue state‑level leverage while others are steered toward small‑scale localism. Without a Marxist framework, communities lack the tools to counter state repression, plan economic development, or resist co-optation by Turkish authorities.
The PKK’s adoption of “eco‑municipalism” reflects both an ideological retreat from socialist class struggle and an example of how imperial powers exploit minority movements via “humanitarian” and environmental pretexts.
No wonder the movement collapsed.
big L for the kurds
The Kurds are the world’s largest stateless nation, spread across Turkey, Iraq, Syria, and Iran, with the majority in southeastern Turkey. Since the 1970s, the most influential independence movement has been Turkey’s PKK, founded by Abdullah Öcalan as a Marxist‑Leninist guerrilla group. The 1991 Gulf War saw Western powers carve out an autonomous Kurdish region in Iraq, using Kurdish aspirations to weaken Saddam Hussein—setting a precedent for fragmented “self‑rule.” Post–Soviet collapse and with Iraqi Kurdistan forging ties with Ankara over oil exports, the PKK abandoned armed struggle and Marxism‑Leninism.In 2005, Öcalan embraced Murray Bookchin’s “ecological libertarian municipalism,” focusing on decentralized communes and environmental protection rather than class-based national liberation.

No it doesn't. Zionists want to redirect all funding to Ukraine to Israel instead. Likely they're gearing up for a war with Iran and don't want the US to have other military considerations.
>"Donald Trump makes the Zios seethe!"
Trump is an agent of Chabad-Lubavitch and the Russian-Jewish mafia. The Russia connection was actually real along, only that the liberals left out the detail of the very Jewish nature of this connection.
There's a new political axis forming with the USA-Israel-Russia, and the thing that binds it together is Chabad. This is the actual, real Jewish power in the world today, not some liberal Jewish comedian. Hell, Trump's own children became Jewish through Chabad.
What's more important to understand is that the whole schizo Christian nationalism right wing is firmly controlled by this Zionist power, and it's weaponising it.
But don't expect Hinkle, Haz, or Maupin to touch this subject with a 50 ft pole.

I dont think a socialist movement is possible of servitude and service work is allowed to continue. It took ages to illegalize slavery and yet there is more of it than ever—mainly through the never ending flood of terrorist and kidnapping groups that make eradicating the problem fucking impossible without eradicating kidnapping.
Service work doesn’t fair much better as it is only barely above servitude and slavery in terms of dignity but falls back to that status if public services are ever bought out and stolen by private actors.
Outside of being undignified, these jobs just flat out and do not have to exist in a socialist society. They’re just bad jobs period and it would be better for everyone if they went away. No one really needs a consultant, housekeeper, motivator, receptionist, gig workers, restaurant service workers, or whatever other petty job that a person—a normal person—can do themselves without guidance.
Servitude and service work
I used to think differently about service jobs for years as I wasn’t one of those “if it isn’t blue collar it isnt a real job” socialist nut heads, but my feelings for that idea has shifted towards it for different reasons.I dont think a socialist movement is possible of servitude and service work is allowed to continue.

If those retards in the Mises Caucus could take over the Libertarian Party, I have no doubts 7-10 likeminded folks could turn "social democracy", a phrase that's open to interpretation in the United States, into whatever their hearts desire.

International Trade Union Confederation’s (ITUC) 2025 Global Index shows the average country ratings deteriorated in three out of five global regions, with Europe and the Americas recording their worst scores since the index began in 2014. Only seven out of 151 countries received the top-tier rating. The data shows a sharp rise in violations of fundamental rights, including access to justice, the right to free speech and assembly, and the right to collective bargaining.

Black Gold, Broken Promises: Basra's Youth Demand Justice Amid Oil Profits and Pollution
A peaceful protest by hundreds of petroleum engineering graduates in Basra turned violent on Sunday after security forces forcibly dispersed demonstrators demanding employment in the province’s lucrative oil sector. The protest, one of many over recent months, reflects growing frustration with widespread corruption, environmental catastrophe, and systemic neglect that has turned Basra’s wealth into a source of suffering for its people.

Israel declares West Bank village south of Hebron a military zone amid settler violence and forced displacement
Israel has declared the Palestinian village of Khillet al-Dab'a, in Masafer Yatta south of Hebron, a "closed military zone" for 24 hours, as part of what rights groups and local leaders describe as an escalating effort to forcibly displace residents and hand land to Israeli settlers. The closure order, issued Sunday morning, bans any presence in the area except for local residents and comes after foreign and local delegations visited the village in solidarity with those resisting eviction. The military sealed off the village after Israeli forces stormed it at dawn.

Serbian students rally to mark train station tragedy

23,000 workers on strike in Izmir Metropolitan Municipality, Turkey
On Thursday, May 29, 23,000 workers at the IZELMAN, IZENERJİ and EgeSehir companies of the Izmir Metropolitan Municipality (İzBB), which is under the administration of the Republican People’s Party (CHP), went on strike. Negotiations between the Social Democratic Public Employees’ Union (SODEM-SEN), representing the municipality, and the Genel-Is union, affiliated with DISK, had failed to reach an agreement for nearly five months.

No end to Birmingham bin strikes after council makes ‘watered-down’ offer
The union said that further negotiations will be necessary as the proposal is “clearly not in line” with figures discussed during meetings arranged by the conciliation service Acas. Bin workers have been on all-out strike since March 11 against plans to downgrade some roles which will see them losing up to £8,000 a year, Unite says. Unite general secretary Sharon Graham pointed out that for some workers the sum could be a quarter of their pay, putting their mortgages, rents and livelihoods at risk.

Petro criticizes Colombia’s security forces over alleged assassination plots
Petro turned on the security forces after the Bogota Police Department apparently downplayed the importance of two RPG-22 rocket launchers that were found at less than two kilometers from the presidential palace. The rocket launchers were found in the Martyres district in February, but not revealed to the public until Saturday. According to public television network RTVC, the rocket launchers were found along a road that is often by the president when traveling to and from the presidential palace.

Argentine Court Temporarily Suspends Milei’s Decree Limiting Right to Strike
Judge Moira Fullana halted the enforcement of Article 3 of Decree 340/2025, arguing that it could violate constitutional guarantees such as union freedom and the right to strike, which are protected by Argentina’s Constitution and international treaties the country has signed. … The ruling concerns the decree’s article requiring between 50% and 75% of normal services to be maintained in essential sectors, even during labor disputes. The suspension will remain in effect until a final judgment is issued on the matter.

I'll start with my own recommendation:
Rie Himemiya from Phase Connect [EN] Gen 2 Phase Alias. A Vsinger with great covers and original songs such as Love Potion #520 and ゲテモノ (Bizarre Food) / Utsu-P ♡ to give you two examples.
Her streams as of now center around variety gaming such as her recent playthrough of Pokémon HG/SS as her first Pokémon game although she is mostly focused on Limbus Company and Library of Ruina as well as community projects like Date Ideas for Valentines season or making a love song out of Schizophrenic Maros.
However I do recommend her older VODs as well such as Sandtrix or Gayraoke for her humor and great chat interaction. If you want something more recent check out her 100 songs for 100k Christmas Special from last year. Remember to do your reps and backreading

A good set of training-wheels for the bicycle of the mind.
However there's something extremely pathological about not wanting well designed and implemented features.
It's like cachexia from voluntarily avoiding healthy fats.
This isn't to advocate feature creep, which is ugly and doesn't add to the design of the system.
In rejecting big systemic components which integrate they may even make things more complex.
This is something like having a small standard library, avoiding RPC, or even loose coupling of components.
Implementing these can reduce duplication, and reduce complexity, while allowing more to be achieved.
Everywhere the minimalist takes something rich and make it small.

Even fascists enter into this line of argument, mistakenly calling it "cultural marxism" (in the last years the term "woke" has also gained track). According to them, a conspiracy has been launched to destroy Western culture, and this would be the implementation of this "cultural Marxism", manifesting itself as the dictatorship of political correctness, the control of the media and educational institutions, promoting through them pessimism, liberalism, and the degeneration of society.
Looking at their description of "cultural Marxism," one can see that Marxism has nothing to do with it; in fact, it is antithetical. Marxism seeks to transform society, to end capitalism, and to bring humanity to a higher, more evolved stage. However, postmodernists (in all their variants) only patch up the system, advocating for supposed partial struggles that, when used by them, serve as a brake, not a pedal for advancing society. Like fascists, they do the dirty work for capitalists. They distort Marxism, achieving disunity and the absolute disorganization of workers, leaving them at the mercy of exploitation in a decadent, putrid, and degenerate society. Thus, fascists should find another name to define the postmodernist movement that defends the system, since, as fellow travelers, both fascists and postmodernists have the same interest in maintaining the hegemony of capital.
Fascists pin the beginning of this movement on the need of the left to destroy everything Western in order to achieve revolution, since they failed to lift up all of Europe in 1917. Therefore, work focused on this need would begin in 1930. It would begin with the Frankfurt School and supposedly develop to this day. Although they are right that it began with the Frankfurt School in 1930 based on misunderstood ideas of Antonio Gramsci, we must analyze the material conditions that led to this, since on this point they are clearly mistaken.
In 1930, the labor movement was stronger than ever, especially in Europe. The USSR had consolidated; through the Comintern and its sections, it had more capacity than ever. Therefore, was it impossible to make a revolution in Europe when it was more present and closer than ever? Clearly not, so it makes no sense to claim that it was a response by Marxism to a supposed inability, but rather the opposite: in the face of the revolutionary offensive and the failure of fascism, stopping it required other methods that would maintain the capitalist system in Europe and around the world. This was the emergence of ideological postmodernism, following the Frankfurt School, to degenerate Marxism and destroy the communist parties from within and without. This thought reached its peak in May 1968 in France and periodically promoted the birth of similar movements that only confirmed the condemnation of the working class to exploitation. These authors set themselves up as defenders of "critical" Marxism when in reality they critiqued it with the intention of defenestrating, dumbing down, and destroying it. Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, and Jürgen Habermas were followed by Sigmund Freud, Louis Althusser, and, more recently, Judith Butler, Michel Foucault, Slavoj Žižek, and Immanuel Wallerstein. These are just a few of the most famous, but the list, unfortunately, is much longer.
A dictatorship of ideological postmodernism has been imposed. While economic control by capitalism has continued, the postmodern left has been allowed to set the pace of social "advancement," which in reality is nothing more than forcing consumption and behavior patterns in the way capitalism wants, degenerating society and increasingly oppressing the working class. Everything that isn't politically correct is subject to a media lynching that censors, or ("cancels") it. The old, working-class left has been overwhelmed by the "new left", by partial, meaningless, and aimless demands for progress. The old left has been dismissed as something old-fashioned and obsolete, something from the past that no longer makes any sense. They need to force the organizations that were once combative to adopt the new dogma, to the prevailing ideology, to not oppose that which is already a reality and can no longer be changed. For us communists, everything can be changed: nothing is stagnant, everything is in constant movement and subject to transformation. Since the destruction of the capitalist state is necessary for the construction of a new proletarian, socialist state, we should not leave any pillar of capitalism standing.
The persecution and influence of ideological postmodernism occurs at all levels of society, both individually and collectively: no association or organization of any kind is exempt from subjugation to the dogmas of postmodernism. Workers' associations and communist parties are no exception either, and they have suffered a major attack from these ideas and their champions. The saddest thing is that they have had great success in communist parties and organizations, which have introduced into their programs, to give just a few examples, a series of issues that clearly undermine the foundations of Marxism and that go against the transformation of society:
>Absolute renunciation of violence. Instead of seeing it as an instrument, they have accepted the discourse of the bourgeoisie so that it can perpetuate itself in power. A class that holds power will never give it up without a fight. They have fallen into the crudest idealism.
>Acceptance of liberal feminism's anti-communist, anti-worker, and anti-progress ideas, incorporating them into their "neomarxism", which perverts the ideology into a docile state, eliminating everything revolutionary about it. We're talking about illogical gender quotas, the promotion of queer theory, rejection of monogamy and nuclear family, support for prostitution and unhealthy promiscuity, the equation and even superiority of the so-called feminist struggle with the class struggle, and a long list of shameful issues promoted by the bourgeoisie and profoundly anti-Marxist in nature.
>Acceptance of bourgeois environmentalism, rejecting the concept of prioritizing production and industrialization so that the country can achieve independence and revolutionary development. Natural resources, and therefore the environment, must be protected, but not in a childish manner, without taking into account the country's productive needs at specific times.
>General demilitarization, one of the points of the program that all these communist parties and organizations have adopted at the behest of the bourgeoisie. How can a revolution defend itself without an army? It needs to be completely reformed, but thinking that they will be able to disband it without consequences is nothing more than falling back into the most absurd idealism.
>They completely renounce discipline, democratic centralism (some maintain it in name, but in practice only develop internal liberalism), and revolutionary vigilance in favor of assembly-based politics and the relaxation of militant life to the point of creating only amateurs who treat it as a hobby. With this, they have destroyed any capacity for combativeness in these parties: alcoholism and drug addiction are now accepted as something good or even, as something to be expected from a leftist.
(I say communist parties because they call themselves that; of course, they are not, they are merely part of the system and contribute to the disorganization of the working class.)
Class struggle is rejected with theories that are each more surreal than the last. Some also speak of a new phase of capitalism with the sole intention of perpetuating domination and oppression, but with a "human" face. Many of the defenders of these theories attempt to justify them by revising the revolutionary essence of Marxism. It is true that changes have occurred with the development of imperialism, but these variations do not affect its fundamental laws, and so we remain in the same historical phase. They magically transform the minority into the revolutionary or transgressive, the rare and marginal into the supposed vanguard of future transformations. They fail to realize that their scale of oppression is nothing more than a metaphysical construct destined to fail if its objective were to bring about real change and not to blur class consciousness and weaken working-class and revolutionary organizations. That a group, in this case a class, plays a revolutionary role is not due to the marginal, alien, non-normative, or minority character of certain individuals, but rather to the material conditions of that class, which inevitably lead it to play a revolutionary role in the transformation of society. The bourgeois class is a minority compared to the working class, and this does not make it revolutionary; on the contrary, it is parasitic and unproductive, while the working class is the one that produces wealth and is subjugated, since it does not own the means of production.
A new consumer culture has been created that presupposes individual liberation, as if it were possible to make changes individually and not as a collective entity that achieves progress by force. A culture of general depravity has been established in society, especially among young people, who, under the pretext of destroying tradition, are destroying everything to pave the way for the concepts of the new consumerism, drug and alcohol addiction, prostitution, pornography, and a life of excess and degeneration that instills a heightened consumerism that alienates and destroys consciences and identities alike. "We only have one life to live"; they don't realize that living involves being productive, educating ourselves, having interests, being healthy, reproducing our species, and contributing to the overall progress of society. Living is not being a nihilist who only follows trends and dogmas imposed by those in power. They've created the false illusion that communists who don't conform to this way of thinking are actually reactionaries, much more to the right than to the left. As if renouncing absolutely everything for the sake of social trends were more revolutionary. As if supporting the current general degeneration of society were something positive.
Being promiscuous, "lacking" a sexual identity, being a drug addict and advocating for it, dyeing your hair, or liberally claiming dogmas about partial struggles doesn't make you a revolutionary; what makes you a revolutionary is organizing yourself in a disciplined way to transform society. The new left continues their hidden defense of the capitalist system and the absurd justification of Western parliamentary democracies, which are the true drivers and defenders of the existence of such system. Unfortunately, we're all influenced by this postmodernism. It's normal to have fallen at some point throughout our lives under these dogmas, under the vices of consumption that they dictate to us. It's necessary to open our eyes, be self-critical, and see that they only want to destroy any possibility of transforming society and maintain current exploitation. Therefore, it's necessary to vehemently fight against this ideological postmodernism, realizing that postmodern revisionism is nothing more than another attempt by its proponent—the bourgeoisie—to eliminate working-class and revolutionary organizations, perpetuate their oppression, and destroy society.

About the complete dominance of postmodernism in the current left
Currently, one of the biggest and most important enemies of marxism is ideological postmodernism. This new wave of ideological decay has covered itself with a cloak of supposed modernity and progress, and they even pretend to give the image that it is a product of the evolution of Marxism itself. Nothing could be further from the truth.Even fascists enter into this line of argument, mistakenly calling it "cultural marxism" (in the last years the term "woke" has also gained track). According to them, a conspiracy has been launched to destroy Western culture, and this would be the implementation of this "cultural Marxism", manifesting itself as the dictatorship of political correctness, the control of the media and educational institutions, promoting through them pessimism, liberalism, and the degeneration of society.

Our hands are full with work in the struggle against executioner culture. Far too many hymns have been sung in praise of the noble gallows of the so-called European continent.
We gnash our teeth behind the iron bars of a plague-ridden freedom. We’ve had enough of the mud of smuggled culture and stolen civilization. Enough!
We howl from the ancient cradle of culture. We, from the Balkans, howl: anti-culture!… anti-Europe!…

We curse culture with all our might—don’t we!? After all, the fish rots from the head—and the head is the stinking shark called Europe! That’s why, in the name of barbarian purity and primal barbarian love, we want to tear the mask off all the lies of savage humanism. We no longer want to be hypocritical Christians.

Europe has outlived our youth—which it violently stole—and turned us, half-alive, into scattered graves. Europe, which rapes our minds, has imprisoned our bright intellects with its pornographic culture.

>Urgent Appeal: Stop the Judicial Coup in South Korea and Defend Democracy
<On May 1, 2025, South Korea’s Supreme Court issued a politically charged decision that overturned the acquittal of opposition leader Lee Jae-myung, the leading candidate in the upcoming presidential election, on charges of election law violation. Lee had endured intense repression under the administration of impeached former president Yoon Suk-yeol, having been subjected to investigation by over 200 government prosecutors, but despite countless allegations, these nearly non-stop investigations failed to result in a conviction. Now, with South Korea gearing up for a historic snap election on June 3, 2025 following Yoon’s ouster, authorities are once again attempting to convict Lee to remove him from the political playing field.

Now, with South Korea gearing up for a historic snap election on June 3, 2025 following Yoon’s ouster, authorities are once again attempting to convict Lee to remove him from the political playing field.

In my defense at least I bought my Shuten Douji figure from the cheapest seller.
Also, does anyone have any idea of who could be the original manufacturer or producer? I can't find an official name or even product page for this figure besides the storefronts from the various resellers.

They try to multiply to overrun civilization and a naive person might think of sparing their children but they are not thinking of how they will grow up to rape and wipe out anybody different to them.
They are basically parasites who just want to take over and exploit the whole earth until it becomes Mars, just like the Goblins from Goblin slayer.
Just like the goblins from goblin slayer people are naive about them and their biggest strength is that they exploit the empathy of compassionate people to be allowed to thrive in the world.
If you show empathy, possibly even to their children it just becomes a chance for them to cheap shot you. They want to weaponize and use their children as a weapon to take over civilizations until the Earth is infested and dying.
In the end the only good goblins are the ones that never show their faces to the light of day. There isn't a single reason to show them mercy.
Post-Enlightenment Conservatives are basically Goblins from Goblin Slayer
Almost every single aspect of the lore about goblins is actually based on them and how they view masculinity. If you are a man who isn't a goblin in mannerism and looks they will either call you "gay" or seek an opportunity to commit a violent hate crime against you.They try to multiply to overrun civilization and a naive person might think of sparing their children but they are not thinking of how they will grow up to rape and wipe out anybody different to them.

The bourgeois family–the family as it exists today–is creepy as fuck. Every parent I've known develops some bizarre predilection with their child's sexuality, which stems from a sense of ownership over the child. You don't "own" your child. You're mandated by state to raise them.
The fact so many people view children as a burden is exactly why we need to annihilate the bourgeois family. And folks with kids don't feel any different, and they treat their kids accordingly. Raise kids in state-run boarding schools. Let people who like kids raise them.

I'm a dude, but I dont like masculinity at all. I want to be more feminine and look prettier. I have a lot of gripes with my body, however its nowhere near as much as what most people describe as body dysphoria. This may be because I already have a relatively feminine body for a guy, but I dont know.
The main problem I have with being a man is the male gender roles and place in society, not so much the body itself. I hate being expected to be aggresive, emotionless, and be into "manly" things. I feel like if gender roles and gender norms didnt exist at all then I wouldnt have a problem being a man, but they unfortunately do exist. So does that make me trans? Or does it not count because im not dysphoric enough about my body? Am I just faking these feelings and confusing myself?

This is how a real socialist leader approaches the music question.
Most “narco music” is CIA-funded, identical to how the intelligence apparatus funds and promotes hip hop. Banning it is objectively the correct position for a socialist leader to take. China also bans rap and promotes classical music as a way of empowering the masses through culture.

How were sakaists wrong? Where do you even start with the reeducation of the white proletariat if a revolution succeeded right now, the internet is dominated by think tanks that push the white genocide myth, there were like 5 mass shooting cases the past couple of months where chuddies killed their classmates, insulting a black kid nets you $1 million bucks and its gonna get worse from here on out.
You can deny idpol all you want, but when brown people fear for their lives then they will react and defend themselves, and some anti-idpol leftist isn't converting those people over to their side with constant fence sitting when white people fantasize about a world wide genocide.
Or will the western left continue to huff their farts, while the fascist machine sends some more people to el salvador and bombs more palestinian children?

The US is still standing, China isn't bending and Russia's the same as before.

Nothing really matters and nothing is happening. If something had happened we'd all be right there and be able to go nowhere because the real movement is against the present state of affairs.

Of course, the Poles, being a classified reaKKKtionary group will cast their votes for the candidate that they (wrongly) believe is the right one, and while most likely the uninspired liberal Trzaskowski will win, this election also sees (so far) a rise in the popularity of a right wing agent of Satan candidate Mentzen (his name is German - that already is an ill omen)
I guess people deciding to caste their vote for the KKKlandidate from KKKonfederacja is bad enough, but currently he has 3rd place in most polls (which are a shit source of info, at least in Poland, but his supporters are loud at least). Like his memes say, he might actually have a higher chance of beating PO's Trzaskowski if he gets to the 2nd turn (which he likely won't). Of course the postulates are the same old rightoid spiel - low taxes, privatize stuff, shit that would never help any common prole (which is funny because common cis male proles are his biggest electorates, followed by teenagers and young adults with delusions of grandeur and entrepreneurial success)
In true Polish fashion there is no real good candidate, maybe Razem's Zandberg who actually has leftist postulates, criticized Israel (uncommon among Polish politics even though the population is like 80% anti-Israel at least), ran the pre-www Polish section of the Marxist Internet Archive as a teenager. But then, Razem is a socdem party through and through - unless Zandberg somehow gets elected and randomly brings back the Polish People's Republic.
His biggest supporters are actually among academic young adults, most of studentoid friends of mine actually vote for him.
Sometimes I wonder what CIA programming Poles went through to just go "jezu komunis" at any leftist postulate and causes them to react towards nazism (speaking of - plenty more nazi stickers around my place recently, being Polish and a nazi has to be a new suicide cult)
tl;dr the Poles have had it too good for long enough.
