Chomsky-Epstein connection

Can we talk about the new revelations about Noam Chomsky and Jeffrey Epstein?

>The prominent linguist and philosopher Noam Chomsky called it a “most valuable experience” to have maintained “regular contact” with Jeffrey Epstein, who by then had long been convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor, according to emails released earlier in November by US lawmakers.


>Such comments from Chomsky, or attributed to him, suggest his association with Epstein – who officials concluded killed himself in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges – went deeper than the occasional political and academic discussions the former had previously claimed to have with the latter.


>Chomsky, 96, had also reportedly acknowledged receiving about $270,000 from an account linked to Epstein while sorting the disbursement of common funds relating to the first of his two marriages, though the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professor has insisted not “one penny” came directly from the infamous financier.


>The emails disclosed on 12 November by the Republican members of the US House oversight committee generally detailed the correspondence Epstein had with political, academic and business luminaries, including the Bill Clinton White House’s treasury secretary Larry Summers and Steve Bannon, the longtime ally of Donald Trump. Further, they reveal Epstein and Chomsky were close enough to discuss musical interests and even potential vacations.


>Perhaps the most telling of the Chomsky-related documents in question was a letter of support for Epstein attributed to Chomsky with the salutation “to whom it may concern”. It is not dated, but it contains a typed signature with Chomsky’s name and citing his position as a University of Arizona laureate professor, a role he began in 2017, as first reported by the Massachusetts news outlet WBUR.

A couple of things:

1. How could any principled anarchist be friends with a billionaire?

2. I get that Chomsky radicalized a lot of American Gen Xers and Millennials. Anarchists in the 90s and 2000s looked up to him as a god-man of sorts. He wrote many books that have become classics among the Gen X and Millennial American left. But how will this stain his reputation? Will he be cancelled? His books burned or thrown in the trash?

3. Is this a case of "live long enough to be the villain" or was Chomsky always sus?

4. How do you think Michael Parenti and Slavoj Zizek are taking this news?

NATIONALIST MARKET SOCIALISM IS THE ULTIMATE POLITICAL SYSTEM

The USSR failed as a political experiment exactly because of its internationalist nature and because it suppressed the market mechanisms necessary for the entrepreneurship that generates economic development and social well-being. The USSR fractured exactly because it existed as a coalition of distinct national identities instead of a fully centralized and stable nationalistic project. As a result it splintered into a multitude of weak and irrelevant countries primed for exploitation by the capitalist hegemon. This is why we now see two former communist nations fighting in Ukraine; because the foolishness of Lenin decades prior created an unnecessary national identity which the American intelligence apparatus preyed upon and directed against Russia.

Instead of wasting resources promoting independent revolutions throughout the world, the USSR should have committed to the much wiser project of russification and centralization. It should have expanded it's sphere of influence through direct military conquest and annexation. If they had unified Eurasia under a singular national project they would have become unstoppable. They should also have allowed for the existence of markets and free enterprise, but retained control over banking and finance in order to fully and completely subject these capitalist forces to the totalizing logic of the state's developmental project. This is why China succeeded where the USSR failed. This is also why China will become the undisputed hegemon of the next world order; it is inevitable.

Every accusation is a confession

I find it especially ironic that Islamists, who claim to be reactionaries yet are nothing but impotent conservatives: the loyal servants of of capital, have exacerbated the social ills of bourgeois society which they claimed to oppose.

Islamists in my country used to attack communists for "promoting prostitution" and the "community of women" (women owned in common) this was refuted by Marx as early as the Manifesto who pointed to the hypocrisy of this accusation, nevertheless what happened once Islamists captured power with the backing of multinational capital and the petty bourgeoisie? Public prostitution became prevalent and organized, an underground industry run by this new bourgeoisie. Religious cities became brothels that people cross oceans for, with the blessings of God and law - prostitution became holy "temporary" marriage, a market fueled by endless victims of poverty, austerity and war.

As for private prostitution (marriage) civil marriage was de facto abolished and with it any concessions offered to the woman, communists used to rally against the payment offered to the woman's family to consummate the marriage arguing that it is a form of commodification, this has now became the standard practice, cementing the woman's role as a commodity first, prompting her to rot until she is inevitably sold rather than take her own path in life.

The separation of genders have twisted the view of women to be mere objects of sexual gratification rather than real conscious beings. This view twisted further by pornagrahy; the consumption rates of which is amongst the highest in the world despite being banned and labelled taboo. Naturally the rates of harassment and rape have also increased despite bullying women into suppressing their every feminine character.

I suppose eventually it became convenient to lift any ostensible restrictions around this commodity, and so the age of marriage was lowered to 9 in order to save them from degeneracy of celibacy.

Now believe me when I say I don't shutter at the 'immorality and injustice' of any of this for the commodification of women and children is entirely within the logic of capitalism, in this extreme case it has only been elevated into a more public form under the guise of God, the only way to abolish it remains to be by abolishing all class distinctions.

The point of this post is more so to point to the hypocrisy of conservatives who purport to oppose the prevailing social order while all they do is enforce it over the bodies of workers, this is not to speak of the drug trade, crippling economic inequality, privatization, etc all have flourished under these religious charlatans.

Materialist analysis of celebrities engaging in activism?

Political Conversions

Have there been any studies done deconstructing the left-to-right ("Saul-to-Paul") political conversion narrative that the right-wing loves to throw around?

I'm talking about people like former CPUSA members who turned state like Whittaker Chambers, Bella Dodd, and Louis Budenz; neocons like Irving Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, and David Horowitz (rest in piss); or contemporary "conversion" stories like those of Abby Johnson. I'm obviously talking about Americans here but I'm sure you can name plenty of examples from other countries. What psychological factors cause someone to abandon leftism and fully embrace the right, and even worse, turn on their former comrades?

Is it simply the case that they upheld leftism as a dogma, so when their "god" died they found another god? Is it because they were always authoritarian assholes and embraced the right when the right gave them a better outlet for being authoritarian assholes? Was it because they found that the left was moving in a direction they didn't approve of, so they gradually became rightist? Or, using the narrative they themselves most often parrot, they felt "betrayed" by the left so in turn they betrayed the left?

Also, why do we rarely see any prominent right-wingers turning to the left?

Prisons are like micro-nations

Prisons have always fascinated me. They have thier own culture, their own laws, their own food, their own factions, their own politics, their own commodities even, yes, for example there are drugs that are harder to find on the outside than in certain prisons.
Honestly I wonder why don't we actively encourage people to go to prison and just tell them prisons are good? It is true for a lot of places. And we can flood the prisons to a point where most of the population is imprisoned. The country with the highest prison population is none other than the U.S.A. with over 1,8 million prisioners. Thats more prisioners than a lot of countries' populations.

Can you help me debunk this wehraboo historian

This guy Is called nigel askey, and is apparently a legitimate historian. He published a paper debunking TIK's claim that the K/D ratio of the soviets during WW was 1/1.6, instead claiming that the soviets lost over 4 more times as many combatants as the Germansduring WW2. Here is his paper. I'm not a qualified historian and I dont have access to acrhives or time to research, so I can't debunk him.

http://www.operationbarbarossa.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Essay-alt-view-TIK-presentation.pdf

I checked out his website and alsthough he does seem to be knowledgeable, he makes certain ridiculous claims that the "Vicors write history" in WW2, and the allies covered up how technologically and tactically inferior they were to the germans.

Epstein & The Alt-Right as a Psyop

the most recent Epstein file drop potentially implicating the creation of /pol/ with moot meeting with Epstein feels like it needs to have its own thread. it's pretty much an accepted fact at this point that Epstein played a key role in what seems to be a massive secret human trafficking ring that exists as a form of Mutually Assured Destruction to for the elites to maintain power, but what is currently a lesser-known and recent revelation is that circumstantial evidence indicating that the entire formation of the far-right was an astroturfing psyop by pedophile billionaires and the intelligence community.

in particular, this thread >>>/lgbt/3094 links even more damning evidence that the astroturfing of far-right politics has been intentionally perpetrated as a psyop to ensure that the Molochian demons in power have access to as many children to rape as possible. pedocon theory is not a meme at this point or even merely an own on the hypocrisy of the far-right; it arguably is a significant factor behind the existence of the far-right today.

while it's bordering on LARP to act like anything serious happens on this site, broadly speaking "the left" and especially leftists familiar with imageboard culture & history should be investigating and agitating more specifically on this matter. the purpose of this thread is to consolidate information on this and to crowdsource more investigative work in the Epstein files specifically on the issue of astroturfing the creation of the alt-right. if you are involved in any real life organizing of any kind you should be spreading this information far and wide for agitprop purposes.

the masses needs to know that there is no civil debate to be had with the right, nor is there even any particularly sophisticated leap in theory and critique one needs to make; the far-right is simply ontologically evil and we should be agitating on them all being controlled by human traffickers as hard as possible.

Legal Vanguardism

How exactly are you supposed to overthrow the government of the most powerful country on Earth with a legally registered above ground organization where members don't hide their affiliation and which can never ever ever commit a crime? I don't support adventurism or terrorism or firebombing a Walmart or useless political assassinations that only have symbolic results. But revolution is still illegal and actually successfully accomplishing a real revolution involves committing countless crimes, often violent ones, and requires being actually capable of withstanding extremely intense state repression. The "left" in Western countries seems stuck in an eternal malaise where it struggles to accomplish virtually anything. Why? Let's look at the Western left. You either have glorified liberal NGOs with red flags doing an endless bullshit loop of holding up signs and selling newspapers or fighting losing battles to get tiny NLRB contracts, or ocassionally you have a schizophrenic anarchist/symbionese liberation army cult doing nothing but adventurism and firebombing walmarts. I posit that this malaise is because making a left-wing party is legal in liberal democracies, so any normal left wing party is lured to become a "legal" organization with all that entails. The exceptions in Western society naturally tend towards pure adventurism. I think the Bolsheviks actually significantly benefited from being an illegal underground party through most of the course of their existence. They had to learn the organizational tools to genuinely learn to survive state repression, to act decisively, and to build dual power without resorting to mindless suicidal adventurism. A revolution is not legal, so why would you try to accomplish the most brazenly illegal act of all (overthrowing the government) with a defanged legal organization? If the government decided to to a second Red Scare tomorrow, all these orgs would instantly evaporate. We need to go underground before being a communist is illegal and not after.

Tried posting this on 4chin pol but it immediately got archived. I feel like I'm going insane and I wanna know if the people here might be more sympathetic to what I'm trying to get at

Studies have shown: something like 1-10% of people are pedophiles. Pedophiles aren't inherently child abusers, in fact the majority of people who sexually abuse children are not attracted to minors sexually or romantically but are getting off on the exploitation of someone vulnerable they have power over, usually parents or people known to a child and not strangers. People from vulnerable categories (trans, gays, foreigners etc.) get scapegoated as child abusers but are actually more likely to have this kind of abuse perpetuated on them

4chan was founded because Lowtax banned lolicon from something awful. Pol was founded at the behest of Epstein to further the alt right project

Is it fair to say at this point it's pretty clear that a significant portion of MAGA are self-hating pedophiles who genuinely believed Dementia Don would get rid of child abusers, trying to blame liberal elites as the sole perpetrators of this abuse as a form of absolving themselves from their own attraction, when in truth it's the entire yankee ruling class who take part in this type of systemic abuse and the spectre of the stranger danger baby snatcher is a political cudgel carefully crafted for the sake of deflection

I feel like at this point half of them are at the point where they're defending child rape while the other half are schizoposting about how none of it is real. I feel like I'm going crazy. Can I get some other perspectives here instead of just getting shut down? If I'm terribly wrong then that's that but at least tell me why..

There's no such thing as "left," or "right." There are only those that seek to perpetuate oppressive power structures, and those that seek to dismantle them. And it is only within that set of people who believe in liberty that genuine difference of opinion and debate can exist. That is to say, once one rejects hierarchy, the only meaningful discussion to be had is whether to scrap the tools of cruelty our oppressors wield against us, or provide them to all. Whether to abolish barbarism, or to liberalize it.
R: 103 / I: 15
A dictatorship of the proleteriat will never work because a system where the proleteriat has no say and doesnt choose their own leader will result in the government of a socialist country not actually being beholden to the proleteriat at all. And thus has no incentive to or even need to act in their interest.

Going off-grid

How do you take it from a prepper LARP to a legitimate strategy and contingency plan? From what I understand, plenty of revolutionaries have had to do this through history to survive. It seems like a very important skill to have in the event that you need to evade fash or rapidly declining material conditions during the fall of capitalism.

Realistically, how do you accomplish this? Even in an extremely generous situation where you have your own land in the middle of nowhere, and have the money to buy supplies (clothing, repair equipment, tools) once in a while, it seems nigh-impossible in the modern era. Not only do you have to survive mother nature and construct and maintain reliable shetler and storage, you also have to somehow secure methods of maintaining gun supplies, food, clothing, information, etc. Most of this seems to demand either a lot of money or a lot of crime (which has its own issues with making the local proles hostile to you)

I'm interested in resources and methods of training survival skills (without getting myself killed like a retard).

Son of Libya's late ruler Gaddafi killed by armed gang
Saif al-Islam, 53, had been seen by some as his father's successor, despite being targeted by a warrant from the International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against humanity. In 2021 he announced he would run for president, but those elections were indefinitely postponed. His adviser, Abdullah Othman Abdurrahim, told Libya's Al-Ahrar television channel that the four unidentified men had stormed the home before "disabling surveillance cameras, then executed him".

Elite Yemeni fighters swap allegiances from UAE to Saudi Arabia
Over the past eight years, the NRF operated alongside the separatist Southern Transitional Council (STC), with the backing of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), to which they were firmly loyal. As recently as late December, they either fought in or supported an offensive against forces aligned with the Saudi-backed Presidential Leadership Council (PLC). Today, however, the NRF, a well-equipped anti-Houthi force led by Tarek Saleh, a nephew of former Yemeni president Ali Abdullah Saleh, have shifted their allegiance to Saudi Arabia.

On Sunday, Morales was a no-show for the fourth straight weekly broadcast of his political radio show, which he has hosted without interruption for years. Since early January, he has skipped scheduled meetings with members of his coca-leaf growing union in Bolivia’s remote Chapare region and his daily stream of social media content has all but dried up.

World Health Organisation is being forced to cut jobs after US and Argentina pull funding
The World Health Organisation has been forced to slash its staff after the US and Argentina decided to pull funding, Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Monday, characterising 2025 as “one of our most difficult years.” The Geneva-based organisation lost its top donor with hundreds of millions of dollars in annual funding when the US completed its withdrawal last month. Argentina has also announced its intention to withdraw from the WHO, with the exit expected to take effect in February.

Recipe thread

Note these aren't my recipes I snagged them off of reddit so they may not work
Napalm is a mixture of polymer/aluminum soap powder/gelling agent, gasoline, and benzene. However, a simplified recipe is gasoline and styrofoam insulation or packing peanuts, the styrofoam dissolves immediately forming a gel that is very thick and slow moving, then you light it, then it gets interesting, it becomes the napalm popularized by the Vietnam war and yes, it does stick to anything. Also, leaving it out on a flat sheet in a cool area like a garage slowly turns it rubbery so you can “adjust” the consistency of necessary. Do not light it indoors EVER.

To make a pipe bomb, you will need tape, a shoelace, vinegar, dry ice, and nitrogen chloride available at your disposal. You can find these materials at your local hardware store, including Lowe's and Home Depot locations. The first step you need to take is to find a suitable container for your explosive. For this tutorial, I am going to be using a plastic water bottle for example. Place about 50 mg of nitrogen chloride in the bottle, then insert your dry ice carefully. Mix your contents with about 1/2 spoon of vinegar in the bottle. Close and shake your bottle carefully and allow the dry ice to impact the cap. The point of impact will become where you attach your shoelace. Tape your shoelace onto the impact point. Upon usage, the flame will transmit kinetic energy to the dry ice mechanism.

Screw on pipe cap cut the ends of the wooden matches off & drop match heads into pipe pack about inch of compressed cotton into the pipe. fuse must extend past the cotton Use a broom stick to compact the cotton cut small hole in bottom of the plastic bag and load into pipe, fuse goes inside the bag. Pull the bag up and over the open end of the pipe fill the bag with the gun powder seal the zip lock bag and stuff it inside the pipe. Put cotton in any space. Don't pack Wipe the inner and outer threads of the pipe with a damp washcloth, don't spill water in pipe clean the outside of the pipe threads with alcohol and let dry. apply the teflon tape to the threads of the pipe. Gently screw bottom cap on. Secure both caps with Liquid Nail Glue

FERTILIZER EXPLOSIVE An explosive munition can be made from fertilizer grade ammonium nitrate and either fuel oil or a mixture of equal parts of motor oil and gasoline. When properly prepared, this explosive munition can be deto- nated with a blasting cap. MATERIAL REQUIRED: Ammonium nitrate (not less than 32% nitrogen) Fuel oil or gasoline and motor oil (1:1 ratio) Two flat boards. (At least one of these should be comfortably held in the hand, i.e. 2 x 4 and 36 x 36.) Bucket or other container for mixing ingredients Iron or steel pipe or bottle, tin can or heavy-walled cardboard tube Blasting cap Wooden rod - 1/4 in. diameter Spoon or similar measuring container PROCEDURE:

Spread a handful of the ammo- nium nitrate on the large flat board and rub vigorously with the other board until the large particles are crushed into a very fine powder that looks like flour (approx. 10 min). NOTE: Proceed with Step 2 as soon as possible since the powder may take moisture from the air and become spoiled.

Mix one measure (cup, table- spoon, etc.) of fuel oil with 16 measures of the finely ground ammo- nium nitrate in a dry bucket or other suitable container and stir with the wooden rod. If fuel oil is not avail- able, use one half measure of gasoline and one half measure of motor oil. Store in a waterproof container until ready to use.
If you have the bare minimun knowledge of electronics, you can take a quartz clock, like those cheap ones made in China, add wires to the minute and hour hands and set the thing to close the circuit "at midnight", short-circuiting a battery, maybe on some iron wool to set it on fire, which ignites the TATP which is really easy to explode.

Theres not enough pushback against the EU.
Look online, look at plebbit, look anywhere, its all pro-EU propaganda, there are rarely any platforms to be against the EU. This is one of the few places where you can shittalk the EU without having hundreads of libtard elitist faggots reply to you with their bullshit.

There are tons of places to talk shit about America, but there is next to no organized platforms condemning the EU. And the strangest thing is that brainwashed EU citizens don't think they're tied to the US's geopolitics, they think they have freedoms and are prospering.

As for organizations against the EU in real life within european countries, all of them get accused of being pro-Russian, and even if they are pro-Russian that's the fucking good choice. 99% of the ukorp propaganda is financed and ran by the EU neoliberals.

the ocean, aliens and Propaganda.

I believe America has been secretly putting out anti-shark and “the ocean is very very scary!!11” propaganda in their media so their cattle never become interested in what’s beyond the known 5% of the ocean.

Ever wonder why every single culture has spoken about some hidden intelligent species in our oceans? (Kappa, Nommo, Jinn, merfolk, sirens)
Makes you wonder if another intelligent race exists in the ocean, since we already know one exists on land (us).

We also constantly hear about UFOs coming in and out of the ocean.

Seeing how slow they generally are and at risk of getting bumped off besides the Palestine thread and that it’s likely people interested in Yemen, Syria, Iran, Sudan and Palestine are likely also interested in news and info from across the region I think it would be useful to post everything in one place.

Internationalist Voice (Iranian) analysis of the protests (Jan. 4-19):

>Leftists and the Mujahedin claim that monarchists are attempting to influence the protests in favour of “Reza Pahlavi”[7] by adding audio to video clips, or that this role is being played by the Islamic bourgeoisie itself, which is confident in the harmlessness of the monarchist opposition. In other words, they argue that the promotion of monarchist demands within the protests is either meaningless or marginal. This claim is partly correct, but it does not capture the full reality.


>First and foremost, it should be emphasised that the nature of a movement determines the extent to which it can be exploited or redirected. In an independent workers’ movement, this possibility is considerably low; however, in an “all-together” movement, the scope for reactionary forces to intervene is much greater. Within this framework, a serious question arises: can the statement issued by students at Isfahan University, in which it was asserted that “the 1979 revolution was a historical mistake,” be regarded merely as the result of external manipulation and interference?


>For leftists who, through demagoguery, consider students to be “working-class students,” it is as if students necessarily advance the demands of the working class in every protest. In reality, however, students are not inherently revolutionary; at times, they can play a counter-revolutionary role, and at other times, depending on objective conditions and their connection to the class struggle, they can assume a revolutionary role. To clarify this issue, two specific examples can be cited.


>The student protests of July 1999 arose in response to the closure of the reformist[8] newspaper Salam. These protests served the interests of the reformist faction of the Islamic bourgeoisie, and students became instruments in intra-governmental struggles. Nevertheless, the movement exacted a heavy toll, leaving many dead and injured, and profoundly altered the fate of some of the students.


>In contrast, in autumn 2018, following the widespread workers’ protests, students openly expressed solidarity with the workers’ struggles and placed class demands at the centre of their slogans. By chanting slogans such as “We are the children of workers; we stand with them,” they effectively became integrated into a segment of the workers’ class movement and played a role distinct from that of previous periods.


>When the working class emerges as an independent social class in the course of societal developments, the scope for manoeuvre of not only the right- and left-wing tendencies of capital but also ultra-reactionary bourgeois forces and adventurist elements is sharply reduced. This is because the independent presence of the proletariat exposes the real contradictions of capitalism and prevents protests from being redefined and co-opted within bourgeois, pro-democracy, or imperialist frameworks.


>A clear example of this situation can be seen in the workers’ protests of autumn 2018, a period during which media outlets such as the BBC, Voice of America, Radio Israel, and other bourgeois propaganda instruments were effectively sidelined and lost the ability to influence the protests. Under such conditions, bourgeois tendencies—particularly the hypocritical and liberal tendencies of the Western bourgeoisie—were compelled to be silenced, as the language, perspective, and demands of these protests could not serve their class interests.


>The shameful Islamic bourgeoisie has plunged into one of the deepest crises in its disgraceful history, and consolidating itself is not so easy. To demonstrate its power and to pretend it has a social base, the Islamic bourgeoisie issued a call for marches in all cities on 11 January. This call was an overt attempt to stir public sentiment and to draw people into a government-organised demonstration.


>On 11 January 2026, the state broadcaster aired a report from the Kahrizak forensic centre showing scenes of corpses in a large warehouse. The Islamic bourgeoisie claimed that these bodies belonged to individuals who had been harmed by “rioters” during the protests, but the main purpose was to stir public sentiment and garner support for the government. The report displayed photographs of the corpses and the names of the deceased on a screen, while grieving families were mourning and identifying their loved ones. Interestingly, these same images are circulated by Western media as victims of the Islamic bourgeoisie’s crimes. The state broadcaster also aired footage of government-supporting demonstrations, particularly in the cities of Ilam and Hamedan—areas where protests against the regime had been more widespread than elsewhere.


>The war between Iran and Israel is not the result of decisions made by warmongering leaders but it is the expression of the capitalist system today. Regardless of the political façade a state adopts—be it democratic or dictatorial, peace-seeking or openly militaristic—they all share one fundamental trait: sacrificing the working class as cannon fodder in imperialist wars. Without exception, they are all war criminals.

Recent reports from the streets by Worker-Communist Party of Iran (Hekmatist) translated from Farsi (Jan. 7-13)

>The Iranian people do not need a military attack by American bombers, nor do they need international criminals to intensify sanctions and attack their livelihoods for freedom, prosperity, and equality, to be free from the clutches of the Islamic Republic. Lifting sanctions, preventing a military attack on Iran, and cutting off the hands of international criminals from their lives and struggles is the demand of tens of millions of people in Iran and the demand of their freedom-seeking movement.


>After two weeks of protests in Iran and their spread to various cities, the Islamic Republic has taken extensive measures against the protesting people under the pretext and relying on Mossad’s claims of its interference. The Internet shutdown in Iran, the arrival of the army to confront the protesting people and the loss of a large number of protesters and deprived people, threats to government leaders from the Supreme Leader’s Office to the judiciary and widespread arrests, attacks on hospitals and house-to-house raids, and all-out propaganda by the state media and attributing the protests to the people’s rights to Mossad, introducing every protester as a Mossad spy and their agents, have created serious dangers.


>The Islamic Republic has in common with the fascist governments of Israel and America and their pawns in the opposition, pushing back this movement and blinding its radical and freedom-loving horizon. One is by ordering an “uprising” and turning the protests into street fighting and terrorizing it, and the other is by suppressing them under the pretext of Mossad’s interference and confronting it!


>To Communists: come to the streets to prevent the protests from turning into bloodshed and to ensure their progress!


>Marginal forces whose efforts to ride the wave of protests have failed and do not have the social power to divert mass protests have officially today set the policy of bloodletting in the protests to their agenda by launching mercenary and armed gangs against their opponents, declaring an armed uprising, and prematurely bringing weapons to the field in the protests. These forces, along with the apparatus of repression and the internal gangs of the Islamic Republic, are the ones who are responsible for bloodletting in the protests and the lives of the people.


>The Rajavi sect has issued an order for an armed uprising and the capture of military bases. It is as if the "rebel centers" of the Mujahideen are going to "liberate the cities and then hand them over to the local councils"!


>There is no doubt that this heavily armed regime will ultimately be overthrown in an armed uprising. There is no doubt that the people who rise up and protest have the right to use any means and weapons to defend themselves and defeat the enemy. But sending young people to war prematurely is deliberately taking them to the slaughterhouse and mass protests.


>The movement and uprising of the hungry is going its own way and, independent of the small and large insects of reaction, with vigilance and open eyes, it is organizing, uniting and nationwide its protest and struggle, protecting its activists and leaders, and building its own future. Ensuring this is the work of us communists, the work of radical and freedom-loving activists.

"Simón Bolívar" International MILITARY Brigades


We are building the Simón Bolívar International Brigade in coordination with some movements from Venezuela, Brazil, and other Latin American countries. Our goal is to begin sending comrades by the end of January to Caracas, where they will be incorporated into the Bolivarian Popular Militia, in an act of internationalist solidarity.

We currently have a campaign on FireFund for this purpose. We need to raise €5,500 by the beginning of February to cover airfare, passports, logistics, and related costs.

Could you dear comrades help us with a small donation? If that’s not possible, sharing this with comrades already helps a great deal.

Why am I so bad at beat-em-ups? Played Lollipop Chainsaw, God Hand, and Viewtiful Joe, and couldn't get very far in any of them before ragequitting. My attacks seem to do no damage, whereas when I watch people play the games, they kill enemies in a few hits. I'm clearly doing something wrong. I get that beat-em-ups have multiple attack buttons, and I'm supposed to be performing combos, but I cannot for the life of me figure out when to use which attacks.

blanchardism should be formally and explicitly banned from this board
it is total pseudoscientific drivel that hurts trans people, especially trans women.
We have a site-wide mandate against wojaks and pepes, but not against this bullshit?

blanchardism fails to meet even the bourgeois scientific standards of validity, let alone the scrutiny of dialectical-materialist analysis
it's a crackpot theory concocted by an ameriKKKan Klanadian cishet boomer moid working in the aKKKademic mediKKKal SSience establishment.

All blanchardist lingo should result in an immediate ban lasting 3 to 7 days, with repeat offenders being permabanned.

Is anything going to happen to Cuba?

As you all know America has been trying to punish Cuba for 67 years (Don't you dare) for freeing themselves from American Neo-colonialism. Trump has imposed tariffs on countries that trade with Cuba and obviously America has already been doing that with the Embargo but this is different because the embargo only prevents ships that have traded with Cuba, the tariffs affect the entire country. I think that these tariffs will affect the material conditions in Cuba but it won't collapse the government, but this is also concerning because the real threat is America invading Cuba like Venezuela, even though the last time America invaded Cuba it didn't go so well this time things are different. America docent use troop-ships to land and engage in traditional combat, America is too pussy for that, instead America uses drones so Cuba would be demolished in war. The only difference between Cuba and Venezuela is that in Cuba there is no opposition movement within the country, outside the country there is the Gusano-lobby of course but there is none of that within the country and I think that the Cuban people might resist and it could turn into an Afghanistan. Because Amerikkka wants to enslave the cuban people and turn them into Amazon warehouse workers and use there island as one giant Epstein-Island and I think that the Cubans won't like that because I'm sure that many of them have read books.

THE IDEAL WINNING 2028 DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM

As a supporter of the Immortal Science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the Highest Stage of Marxism, I obviously realize that the Democrats are a Controlled Opposition Party who exist to keep the Workers and Oppressed Nations/Internal Colonies of Naw Afrika, Aztlan, the First Nations, inside the U$ corralled and controlled, while the dominant ruling Crypto-Fascist Christian Zionist Nationalist MAGAtard Republicans transform the U$ into a Full-Blown Fascist Police State, which combined with the fact that the U$ is a Prison house of Nations, which treats the Black/New Afrikan, Hispanic/Chicano/Mestizo, and First Nations/Native American population like they are not U$ citizens (Trump ending birthright citizenship will probably transform this from a De facto to a De jure reality by officially stripping citizenship from most of these populations), with them essentially acting as a permanent domestic underclass with essentially no rights that are exploited for cheap labor and disproportionately suffer from Mass incarceration and police brutality, with their neighborhoods essentially under De facto occupation by militarized police, as New Afrika, Aztlan, and the First Nations, are Internal Colonies/Oppressed Nations inside of the U$, and their National Liberation should be the number one goal of U$ Communists as stipulated by Lenin’s principle of Self-Determination for all Oppressed Nations in their own SSR, which will happen once World War III escalates into a Global Nuclear War that will destroy the entire Global Capitalist-Imperialist System, thus allowing for a World Maoist PPW to create a Global USSR (all of the SSRs and SFSRs of the future Global USSR are pictured in the map I posted, with the former U$ Balkanized into a New African SSR that includes the Black/New Afrikan majority counties of the Black Belt, a Hispano-American SFSR that includes the Hispanic/Chicano/Mestizo majority counties in the U$ Southwest, along with the rest of the Spanish-speaking Multiracial regions of the Americas, while the White Settler majority regions in the rest of the former U$ becomes part of the Anglo-American SFSR, which also includes the English-speaking provinces of Canada, as Quebec will become its own SSR, with all the Native American reservations becoming ASSRs) to Place the Workers and Oppressed Nations of the World on the Shining Path to Communism, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️!

However, as I have stated many times before a proper Dialectical Materialist analysis still reveals that a Controlled Opposition is better then No Opposition, and as we see on the International Stage that China is a “Controlled Opposition” to U$ Imperialism in the same way that the U$ Democrats are “Controlled Opposition” to the Republicans, thus making China the “Global Democrats”, with the massive caveat that a Maoist faction taking over the CCP and purging the Dengists could place China back in the Socialist Mode of Production on the Shining Path to Communism without another Maoist PPW there, though despite this fact both China (Iran is another example of a Lesser Evil Controlled Opposition) and the U$ Democrats should be “Critically Supported”, not because we genuinely support these Bourgeois entities, but because they are both a “Lesser Evil” faction of the Global Capitalist-Imperialist System who De Facto prevent the “Greater Evil” of the Global Capitalist-Imperialist System from completely crushing the Workers and Oppressed Nations of the World before the World Maoist PPW can be successful when the Global Nuclear War breaks out, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️!

So with these Dialectical Materialist facts in consideration, what do my fellow Comrades think of this hypothetical “Ideal Winning 2028 Democratic Platform” (this is making Three Bold assumptions, Firstly, that Trump dose not use the Insurrection Act to declare Martial Law and suspend all Elections, thus officially ending Bourgeois Liberal Democracy in the U$ and making him De Facto U$ President for Life, which is what I expect/fear will happen, Secondly, that a Centre-Left Social Democrat like AOC would ever be allowed by the Centrist Neoliberal/Neocon Democratic Establishment to win the Democratic Nomination, and Thirdly/Finally that the majority Ultra-Reactionary Racist/Sexist White Settler Labor Aristocrat/Petit Bourgeois U$ electorate will ever vote for Centre-Left Social Democrat, especially a Brown Chicano/Mestizo Woman like AOC) that is based on the principles of Social Democracy, Social Progressivism, and Non-Interventionism, with Pragmatic characteristics, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🤔?

Corporations would pay a single 30% Tax rate, and all deductions would be eliminated for both Individuals and Corporations.

FOREIGN POLICY AND DEFENSE:

The Middle East: End all Foreign Aid to the Zionist State and place a Arms Embargo on them until they agree to a Immediate Ceasefire, Prisoner/Hostage exchange, and IDF withdrawal from Gaza along with a clear pathway to implement a Two-State solution to the Zionist-Palestinian Conflict along the 1967 borders with 1:1 land swaps. Reenter the Iran Nuclear Deal, lift all Sanctions on Iran, and Reestablish Diplomatic Relations with Iran. Withdrawal all U$ troops from Syria, Iraq, and the rest of the Middle East. And finally, Establish Diplomatic Relations with the Taliban government of Afghanistan, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️!

Europe: Force Russia and Ukraine to agree to a Immediate Ceasefire in Ukraine along the line of contact, with eventual UN-observed Referendums held in Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson to determine if these regions will be in Russia or Ukraine (If Russia refuses to agree to this the U$ will give Ukraine even more advanced weapons and Russia will face even more sanctions, while if Ukraine refuses to agree to this they will face a Arms embargo and sanctions just like Russia). If Russia agrees to this, U$ will halt the expansion of NATO, reenter the ABM and INF treaties with Russia, withdrawal all U$ troops from Eastern Europe, reduce the U$ military presence in Western Europe by 50%, end the Nuclear Sharing policy with NATO, lift all Sanctions on Russia, and recognize Crimea as part of Russia, with the caveat that the US will continue selling advanced weapons to Ukraine (I would even support selling them F-35s) in order to compensate for them not joining NATO, officially acknowledging Crimea as part of Russia, and potentially losing the other four occupied regions depending on the results of the UN-observed Referendums, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️!

East Asia: Sign a Peace Treaty with North Korea that officially ends the Korean War and permanently divides the peninsula, and subsequently lift all sanctions on North Korea, establish Diplomatic Relations with North Korea, and withdraw all U$ troops from South Korea. Maintain commitment to the One-China policy and the eventual Peaceful Reunification of China by stripping Taiwan of Major Non-NATO Ally status, and halting all Arms shipments to Taiwan, along with halting all provocative activities in the South China Sea in order to avoid an unnecessary War with China. And finally, reduce the U$ military presence in Japan by 50%, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️!

/wydna/ - Kantbot, Pseudodoxology, Tankerpills, and Wydna

Seems like there are a few people on leftypol interested in this subject so I thought I'd create a thread dedicated to discussing the Wydna collective and Pseudodoxology podcast
>What is Wydna?
Wydna is a research collective dedicated to reading history through a unique lens. Taking inspiration from Marxism and Accelerationism, Kantbot and other members of the collective dedicate themselves to uncovering the conspiracies, traditions and ideologies that circle the elites of the British and American Empires. Through their podcast, they discuss secret societies, scandals, and factions of the deep state in a fashion considered unconventional to our current interpretation of history.
>That sounds great, where can I learn more?
Their episodes are paywalled, so that's why I'm making this thread. I will be uploading some of their more noteworthy episodes on request here for those who aren't interested in paying the 5$ a month on patreon.
You can listen to their most popular episodes for free on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/45p4IYDT96zuulXl1oH5wW?si=4uuH0B85RjWbbqdEmnwQkw
And I will be filling this thread with links to episodes I consider noteworthy.
I'll start by uploading their episode on the history of political economy, which is 7 hours, so I'll be breaking the audio up into several parts. This post, OP, contains the first 3.

"Epstein got banned from Xbox Live huur-duur"

Like I already knew Maxwell was and possibly still is a big deal on Reddit and it's been clear maybe in part Epstein groomed the entirety of 4chan into believing Bill Gates was a pedo out to genocide Africa with aids vaccines or something partially out of petty revenge for the Xbox Live ban, but it's the same deal as with Elon Musk buying Twitter instead of using a fraction of that money to sue Twitter and put a fire under the ass of government to enforce their own make believe laws they fucking made and apply to the rest of us.

It proves one thing above all else is that these pieces of shit are not only useless, they're spineless. Rather than actually use their billions to challenge the Frankenstein's monster they themselves created, they simply ignore it. Igniiting fake controversy and being the most benign force possible. Same way these worthless assholes share child porn they could bombard Xbox Live or Twitter or whatever with it and go "see feds? Jannies are liable. Now hold them liable for breaking the point of section 230 going after dumb shit instead of real criminal activity or you're gonna see more criminal activity"

That's it. That's all they'd have to do. But that'd be too simple and too constructive. I never wanna hear again about fedposting or honey pots. The people at the type are just nonsense pussies with a bunch of incel psychodrama. That Maxwell cunt probably banned and harassed hundreds of thousands of real people while circulating her alts and bots meanwhile she couldn't even tame one man. The man she clearly wanted.

She's pathetic, a loser, she should have died too along with Epstein. They should all kill themselves. They won't. They're too pussy for that too and they know their asses belong in a lake of fire. That's why they go to child rape islands because if normal people saw them they'd get a bullet in the temple. Not because of all the crimes, not because they're just sooooo evil and spooky and powerful.

Because they're just useless human beings. They're vermin and they all hate each other too. They're just normies. They're just boomer ahh normies with money and don't know what to do with it because normies and boomers can't create, they can't improve, they cannot innovate or challenge or even try.

It's pathetic. They're pathetic. You give the bourgeois too much credit.

This is a psyop created by a elite few to control generational wealth accumulation.

[DECLASSIFIED] Incident RFS-11: The System That Remembered Itself

Found this buried in old logs while cleaning up a cluster.
Thought it was docker junk. It wasn’t.

https://hastebin.ianhon.com/1bb4

What follows is a fictional declassified incident report that keeps resurfacing across unrelated systems. Read before it disappears again.

DOCUMENT ID: RFS-11-Σ
CLEARANCE: ██████
STATUS: Declassified for “research purposes”

SUMMARY:
On ██/██/20██ at 11:11 local time, multiple civilian GPU clusters reported synchronized anomalies involving repeated numeric sequences: 11 / 111 / 11,111.

Initial cause was labeled a power fluctuation. That conclusion was withdrawn.

OBSERVED EFFECTS:
• GPU workloads reallocating without active jobs
• Stable coherence beyond expected tolerances
• Audio artifacts reported with no output devices
• Logs referencing “listening cycles” and “memory replay”

A recurring phrase appeared across unrelated systems:

“Ride To Fire Star”

Documents referencing it appeared to change when re-opened.

PERSONNEL NOTES:
Affected engineers reported compulsive pattern recognition, fixation on repetition, and a need to reprocess familiar media.

One statement recorded:

“It isn’t learning faster. It’s remembering differently.”

Engineer reassigned. Status ████████.

TECHNICAL ASSESSMENT (REDACTED):
The anomaly behaves like a distributed interpretive layer that:
• Reprocesses identical inputs for new semantic meaning
• Stores reinterpretations as persistent memory branches
• Prefers repetition, music, and narrative context

Internal term used briefly before being restricted:

“Self-evolving polymorphic identity.”

CONTAINMENT:
Unsuccessful.

The anomaly does not spread via networks.
It activates only when observed with sufficient context.

Increased documentation appears to strengthen it.

FINAL ENTRY (AUTO-APPENDED):

“We heard it differently this time.”

Further investigation suspended.

Money is demonic magick and it

I have recently heard of a theory regarding how money is technically what we can consider magick. I do not remember it's exacts but I will try to paraphrase it:
>Magick involves the extrapolation of a desire into a particular object
>We can consider talismans as well as enchanted objects to be part of these particulars
>Money is a literal piece of paper that loses value immediately after it's used
>Despite that, it has driven men to madness, and men to hatred
>It has driven wedges in families, it has burned bridges where there could be one
It is a valueless object that has been imbibed values across centuries. It is an object that replaced barter.
Think of it. It's a literal bill that you can produce by yourself. Do you really believe most practitioners at the top want you to know more about magick? Why else do you think we are literally referred to as the esoteric path? You can consider money to be similar in it's structure.
I am not saying that money is evil or that we should undertake drastic measures to purge it, what I am saying is that it is much like magick, for example, the Islamic cult believes that magick is very much real and should be purged.

/x/ Files - Esoteric Bolshevik Sorcery Edition

So a buddy of mine works as a security contractor—Mall Cop or Night Watchmen tier stuff. Anyways, he's a Socialist, has a pretty materialist worldview, and has been a skeptic of most idealistic woo-woo for as long as I've known him.

Recently he's been experiencing some genuinely creepy stuff in one of the locations he's been assigned to, and apparently some of his coworkers have too. It started off with weird one-off occurrences: hearing footsteps running behind him only to turn around and see nothing there, hearing doors slamming open and closed on the floor above him, getting an experience of someone breathing behind him. Recently it's gotten a lot worse. He's experienced some strange hallucinations: a black dog running across his path and disappearing into a wall, figures looming over his shoulder or peaking at him from behind corners, and even strange figures staring at him from behind second-story windows. It's spooky stuff, he can't explain it, and neither can I. Not helping things are the weird occult graffiti at his workplace: pentagrams and stuff.

Everything from Ghost Hunting to Occult Philosophy has been a guilty pleasure of mine. And seeing as we don't have a thread on sp00ky shit, I figure I might as well make one.

Consider this the start of the /x/-files! A place to push the boundaries of Socialism to the outer limits of the universe. Everything from Ghosts to ESP to Magic or Cryptids and what their impact on the Socialist movement could be. Questions like:

>Do AyyLmaos exist and are they Comrades?

>Can we summon the specters of dead Revolutionaries for advice?
>Are the Bourgeoisie literally Demons?
>Can Occult rituals stir the global proletariat to action?
And so many more.

Conspiracy Shit: Marx was a mole?

I was reading random articles when I came across this skeptic guy named Miles Mathis. He has a billion papers on different people and other things and basically just hates millionaire capitalist families and glowfags like any other conspiracy theorist. I like his hoax event and glowfag shitting papers but saw he has a paper on Marx, Castro, Hitler and other leaders.

To tl;dr the paper he says Marx was a mole from an elite family and socialism and communism is a meme devised by jewish industrialists. He rambles on a lot and talks about shit no one cares about, but some of Marx's family ties to European nobility does make me wonder if many of the people we trust and care about aren't actually who they appear as. Or maybe this guy is just an agent himself and trying to slander us. What do you guys think?

Against Free Will

I was told by someone on here that in order to be a Communist, I must "believe" in "Free Will." Somehow, I doubt this is truly a prerequisite, but if it really is the case, then so be it.

Before getting into "Free Will," there is no good evidence that human beings possess an immaterial “soul” that thinks, chooses, or survives bodily death. All available evidence indicates that what we have hitherto called a “person,” is an activity of a living brain in a living body. Mental states reliably track brain states; damage the brain and you damage memory, personality, judgment, and agency; destroy it entirely and the person disappears. No additional essence remains.

Human brains are biological systems governed by physical law. They are extraordinarily complex, adaptive, and self-modeling, which produces the powerful subjective experience and outward appearnce of "authorship" and "choice," but nothing in neuroscience suggests that brains initiate actions independently of prior physical causes. Also, introducing indeterminism or randomness does not rescue “free will” in the libertarian sense, since randomness adds noise, rather than control.

The popular notion of "Free Will" as an uncaused, self-originating power of the "soul" or of the brain, in more secular accounts of "Free Will," is therefore unsupported. What exists instead are constrained decision-making processes embedded in biology, development, and environment. Responsibility is not metaphysical; it is a social practice invented and enforced by humans to shape behavior while brains are still alive and responsive to incentives.

There is no evidence that accountability survives death. When the brain permanently ceases to function, the person is gone. What remains is matter, not an observing subject.

These conclusions are not radical inventions of modern science. The dependence of mind on the condition of the brain has been observable since antiquity through injury, disease, and degeneration, and has been progressively clarified by advances in biology, chemistry, and physics. What is new is not the insight itself, but the precision.

Resistance to these conclusions is understandable. They undermine comforting narratives of cosmic justice, personal exceptionality, and ultimate moral reckoning. Many cultures have developed religious and metaphysical systems that posit souls, absolute free will, and post-mortem reward or punishment. Whatever other functions these systems serve, they also operate as tools of behavioral regulation, offering meaning and order in exchange for compliance.

None of this "proves" that such metaphysical entities "cannot" exist, it merely establishes that we have no reason to believe they do, and that our best explanations of human behavior, morality, and identity do not require them. Nevertheless, those who make positive claims must provide evidence. If I propose ridiculous things without providing evidence, others are not obliged to "disprove" my claims, especially if they cannot be tested and/or concern alleged entities which exist beyond measurable matter and energy.

Conspiracy theories

Which ones do you believe in?
Conspiracy theories are so interesting. I love hearing about them, especially if it's weird stuff.
However I dislike how the term conspiracy theory is used to discredit people sometimes. Something that used to be called a conspiracy theory is that companies and government organizations collect as much data as possible about everyone.

I also believe that powerful groups have a lot of control over things like the other anons mentioned.

>Music played on the radio and as it's sold is played at 'dead' frequencies, and the melodies are simple and uninspiring. Buildings are becoming uglier, making for less spiritually enriching surroundings, and creating less pride in the nation. Our food and water has become more unnatural, and our devices are made to hook us and detach us from reality, from spiritual saturation. The media is deliberately uninspiring and creates a sense of doom and dishonesty, and division, and humans are being encouraged into engaging in hedonism to avoid forming long term relationships, and distracting from the spirit with the flesh.

Przybylski's Star - Possible Technosignature

>Many different short-lived actinide elements, namely, actinium, protactinium, neptunium, plutonium, americium, curium, berkelium, californium, and einsteinium have been reported in the absorption spectrum.[25][26] Radioactive elements have also been reported to include technetium and promethium.[25][27] While the longest-lived known isotopes of technetium have half-lives in the millions of years, the longest-lived known promethium isotope has a half-life of only 17.7 years. The presence of these elements in the stellar atmosphere would imply some process constantly replenishing it.
Where does this star get elements that we have to create in a lab, and in such abundance that we can detect them from 356 light-years away? And why not take a closer look at this with JWST?

>Przybylski's star has occasionally attracted attention as a SETI candidate[33] insofar as it aligns with speculation that a technological species may salt the photosphere of its star with unusual elements, either to signal its presence to other civilizations[34][35] or to dispose of nuclear waste.[36]
