What happens here? I feel like I hear a lot about China, Cuba, North Korea, and Vietnam but never Laos. Are they actually communist? Is it just my American ignorance showing?

They sent mercs to participate in the ukraine russia imperialist war so yes

Laos has a gigabrain strategy.
>Take IMF Loans
>Use them to pay for infrastructure investment
>Pay them back before time
It is the only country that can use the World Bank as an actual bank.

The Giant huntsman spider, the largest spider in the world by leg span, is found ONLY in Laos. It has a leg span of 30 cm (or 1 foot).
For that reason, I will never, EVER, vist Laos even if they achieve a post-scarcity Communist utopia.

>The system is rigged when 4.5 million children live in poverty in the sixth richest country in the world. The system is rigged when giant corporations make a fortune from rising bills. The system is rigged when this government says there is no money for the poor, but billions for war.

>We cannot accept these injustices – and neither should you.

>We will only fix the crises in our society with a mass redistribution of wealth and power. That means taxing the very richest in our society.

That means standing up to fossil fuel giants putting their profits before our planet.

>Meanwhile, millions of people are horrified by the government’s shameful complicity in genocide. We believe in the radical idea that all human life has equal value. That is why we defend the right to protest for Palestine. That is why we demand an end to all arms sales to Israel. And that is why we will carry on campaigning for the only path to peace: a free and independent Palestine.

I think there is a confusion among some first world communists who cannot imagine an anti-imperialist position following their own class interests, regressing them to some moralistic position of blaming an identitarian privilege to blame other workers for remaining passive as an alternative to liberalism, reformism and other types of class conciliation instead of fighting together with the workers of the world so that the rate of profit of the imperialist capitalists falls more quickly and this is not contradictory to fighting for the labor rights of native and immigrant workers along with solidarity in not tolerating imperialist exploitation in the world outside the country that will eventually be used for pacification, co-optation, bribery and repression to intensify exploitation.

>>2401802
>>2401803
The labor aristocracy is a small minority where some class traitors opportunistically try to co-opt workers so that they do not organize and have solidarity among themselves, leading to an ideology of class conciliation with the national bourgeoisie that deceives workers to weaken the movement collectively.

The communist movement is not a proletarian identity but a radical movement for the proletarian class to gain supremacy in order to abolish private property and profit, thereby abolishing social classes and the proletariat as a proletariat to be organized by the community on a common plan as workers. The working class is the most revolutionary and needs a movement independent of the bourgeoisie, but this movement has to be from the perspective of the revolutionary class so that the other working classes that do not have a direct connection with the means of production can act with what they have in common with the revolutionary class to socialize and advance the movement and not get into anarchist or reformist confusion of class conciliation.

All other classes can become communists if they do not forget the perspective they are fighting for and they must act with what they have in common with the radical movement of the working class to abolish the present state of things so that there is no confusion, therefore youPost too long.

I can't find a source, but I saw a youtube short claiming Daiwa Scarlet's trainer only let them on the series if they made her tits bigger to reflect the musculature of the irl horse, and in game is pretty noticably a different build than most of the others.

Each character I've looked into so far seem to have a distinct in-game model, they just evened the height for some of them / certain screens so they can look eachother eye-to-eye without fancy dynamic animations to account for eachother's height. Maybe some of them looked weird when looking up / down.

Minecraft horses often freak me out when playing past the time I should be sleeping because I've never interacted with them as a mechanic so I don't see them often, and they have an imposing silouette so the small mammal part of my brain registers them as a predator until I get a good look at them and realize they're a horse.

Wait, are they saying Black Feminism says "actually staying in Plato's cave is a good thing"?

I, uh, I'm pretty sure the whole allegory of Plato's cave is you're essentially imprisoned within the cave your whole life, you're given projections of things from a guy with a candle outside the cave, and then one day you escape your bonds and see the world for what it is, not dictated by the blurry impressions of their senses. Like, "leaving the cave" is fundamentally a rejection of privileging just "base" senses and coming to perceive things through reason.

So how the fuck do you get "Go back to the cave, wear the chains, look at the pretty pictures" as some emancipatory belief? Like I'm pretty sure that's unironically the argument of the bad guy from The Matrix.

It reminds me of when I learned in uni that "Whiteness" included "showing up to work on time". Just it seems like the worst possible way one could try to express the dignity of colonized people. It's using flowery language to just say, well, "Ignorance is Bliss."

>They have a monopoly, but also a problem monetizing it because it works too well. It's harder to get people to pay for premium features to expand the geographical range or whatever when they download the app, upload a pic, and then start getting dick pics sent to them in five minutes.

My man here got his ideas thrown from the III International for being sorelian.
Although I haven't found online many books about sorel in spanish online. In english there are some

>>2403518
Also every Peruvian leftist claims him, from Senderistas to liberal catholics

>>2402797
Sorel changed his views alot, marxist to syndicalist, to monarchist, to eventually praising Leninist Russia. The only real consistency is his antil-liberalism so naturally fascists would find some solidarity in his works especially due to his rejection of materialism in favour of myth over mass movements which either leftists or rightists could adapt in their favour

>>2402797
>sorel was stupid tbh
How dare you insult the shining red sun in our hearts Georges Eugène Sorel, may the swift and moral sword of Sorelianism strike you down where you stand.
>Did fascism originate from marxism + proudhonism?
Fascism, excluding the ephemeral time when it was a general term for a group of Italian left-interventionists, is just an ultranationalist form of corporatism with Proudhonist diction. It has nothing substantively in common with either Marxism, Sorelianism, National Syndicalism, or Proudhonism.
>>2402974
Good litmus test for whether someone knows literally anything about Sorel or if they're just regurgitating whatever they've heard secondhand is whether they think Sorel was a natsynd (he wasn't) or an integralist (he really wasn't, in fact even warning Berth to not too closely associate with the monarchists in the Cercle)

I know two professors at the University of Tehran, and one at the Islamic Azad University. One teaches American Studies with Professor Mohammad Marandi, who everyone should know from alt media. The other is my uncle, who is a retired Professor Emeritus. The one who teaches at Islamic Azad University is a female literature professor who was my dad's roommate when she was doing research on Deleuze and Shakespeare at Harvard.

In my conversations with them, I've come to realize that Iranian academics have far more academic freedom than academics in the west. First, there's no "cancel culture" or "safe spaces". My friend who teaches American studies said students would openly ask questions about "black crime stats" that would result in disciplinary action in an American university. (And it's not because they're actually racist, it's more just how their perceptions of American society are shaped by pop culture and the mainstream media.)

There's the opposite of a Zionist lobby in Iran, so academics have unlimited freedom to critique Israel and the global Israeli lobby. My own uncle is familiar with the concept of the "ZOG" and NOI's The Secret Relationship. These texts can be openly discussed in Iranian classrooms. This isn't an endorsement of Holocaust denial or actual examples of antisemitism, it just goes to show that there are no concepts or ideas that are off limits.

Alexander Reid-Ross once wrote an article sperging out about an Iranian academic conference that he called "The anti-Semitism Fest Where Russian Spies, Code Pink, David Duke and the Nation of Islam Make Friends and Influence People". In the article he says, "At how many conferences can you be guaranteed to meet Iranian Revolutionary Guards, Russian imperialists, anti-Ukrainian fascists, Chinese spies, Qaddafi devotees, Corbyn fans, Assad apologists, neo-Nazis, Trump devotees, French Holocaust deniers, Western anti-war feminists, African American separatists, Venezuelan socialists and anti-Semites of every conceivable form and type?" (Link: https://www.haaretz.com/world-news/2019-03-14/ty-article-opinion/.premium/russias-role-in-an-anti-semitism-fest-for-fascists-feminists-spies-and-neo-nazi/0000017f-e321-d38f-a57f-e7738c060000)

>Promiscuity in sexual matters is bourgeois. It is a sign of degeneration. The proletariat is a rising class. It does not need an intoxicant to stupefy or stimulate it, neither the intoxicant of sexual laxity or of alcohol. It should and will not forget the vileness, the filth and the barbarity of capitalism. It derives its strongest inspiration to fight from its class position, from the communist ideal. What it needs is clarity, clarity, and more clarity. Therefore, I repeat, there must be no weakening, no waste and no dissipation of energy Self-control and self-discipline are not slavery; not in matters of love either. But excuse me, Clara, I have strayed far from the point which we set out to discuss. Why have you not called me to order? Worry has set me talking. I take the future of our youth very close to heart. It is part and parcel of the revolution. Whenever harmful elements appear, which creep from bourgeois society to the world of the revolution and spread like the roots of prolific weeds, it is better to take action against them quickly. The questions we have dealt with are also part of the women’s problems.

ITT We discuss about our favorite Vtubers, corpo and indie alike. Liveposting, (Spoilered) Porn and Rateposting are all encouraged.

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

Anarchist here. It's not a question of applying anarchism to the Levant, but just a simple matter of "the genocide of Palestinians is monstrous and we should do whatever we can to stop it", even if that means offering support to Hamas or whatever. Most anarchists, myself included, are more concerned with applying anarchist ideology and praxis in our own localities where we can actually make a difference, since at the moment there is no group of free territories with enough manpower or firepower to intervene in Gaza or anything similar.

Ideally I'd like there to be no borders or nations and Palestine just being one of many regions in our global civilization, but for the Palestinian people right now there are more pressing concerns than hypothetical future federations

As time goes on and the tasks of the industry undergo automatization, most jobs are left to the part-time workers. Hasn't anyone else noticed this trend? We call them petite-bourgeoisie and yes variably but mostly tend to be since the nature of their work is not collectivist and is akin to the statuses of small business owners (individual entrepreneurs), shopkeepers (of small businesses), small-scale merchants (without a proper shop), semi-autonomous peasants (now just semi-autonomous poor entrepreneurs), and artisans. I feel that class relations have changed and nobody has bothered to do a concise analysis of it, instead clinging to the same labels, looking back and trying to reapply or justify the changed situation with outdated concepts. For example the "peasantry" Marx described is not the same as the poor jobless homeless, they were literally farmers with limited land-ownership and yet I see people calling hobos and the general poor as peasants. I am lead to believe the term proletariat barely applies anymore, the industrial proletariat is being scaled down and once society no longer relies on its labor then nothing makes it a revolutionary subject since it cannot bring about change through strikes or anything - it will just disappear once its no longer needed anywhere. My thesis is that the majority of the current workers are in the sphere of services and that the revolutionary subject may be IT workers, programmers, generally technicians and scientists which can understand the machinery and affect it. Machinery has already enveloped most of society, so any change that comes upon it will affect it and whoever can affect it can take control of the social order.
Most workers don't work a single job anymore, they do part-time jobs here and there to live by. In the historical situation for which Marx was writing, workers generally lived and died the same profession they took up.

And yes we've had this thread before, though there is a different response each time so I'm trying it against to see what comes out as a response. I present it in a different way and with a different flag that may or may not even be related.
My current thesis is that the movement of the declassed (as Bukharin labeled it) might have the upper hand with the growth of capitalism, the contradictions within the capitalist mode of production do lead to a sort of decomposition, but generally don't appear to be able to lead to collapse on their own unless it brings abouPost too long.

in marxist theory communism is a society where there is no class conflict and thus no need for a state
the countries where communists govern are called socialist. for example, the bolsheviks considered themselves communists and the soviet union a socialist country

you conceded on the universal. as you seemed to understand in your previous post, you only need a single counterexample to disprove a universal. it is all or nothing

>so its socialism where the state controls everything?
socialism is when the working class has more political power than the capitalist class. usually when communist govern they claim this to be the case. taking the soviet union as an example again, you had policies like the NEP where the government allowed and incentivized private ownership of factories and businesses. it was socialism because capital didn't directly translate into political power, this is, the government would continue to pursue a communist project instead of just acquiescing to lobbies, bribes, and all the other mechanisms that allow capital to dictate policies

on the other hand, you have fascist italy where the state, through it's "Istituto per la Ricostruzione Industriale" was the nominal owner of most of the industrial sectors in the country (capitalists could buy "IRI bonds" and receive dividends). it still wasn't a socialist by the marxist criteria because political power was still overwhelmingly in the hands of the upper classes

>>2403517
>you conceded on the universal
no, i am affirming the universal in place of the particular. property will always exist, but not all kinds of property, since it is deemed illegitimate.
>socialism is when the working class has more political power than the capitalist class
in a democracy, dont the workers' votes outnumber the capitalists'?

So /edu/ this site is full of threads debunking standard chicken headed talking points but what are some legit criticisms of leftist thought?

I found this book Black Marxism by Cedric Robinson and his thesis runs as following. Marxism and European socialism, instead of being an ideology of the proletariat, was a petty bourgeois ideology born out of a ressentiment for the bourgeoisie and the belief that the proletariat could be better managed. Leftists falsely understood capitalism as a rationalizing force which would create a homogenous proletariat, while in truth capitalism exacerbates racial differences to manage pops more efficiently. Leftists mistake nationalism and racism as essentially reactionary, while in truth it has always played a huge and sometimes preponderant part in history.

Second Kolakowski's book Main Currents of Marxism makes two important claims. Terms like "materialism" and "dialectics" are not well defined leading to ambiguity and confusion. This is why Lenin and the Russian Marxists misinterpreted Marx's materialism as an ontology of matter. Second leftist materialism is determinstic and offers a telological history in which outcomes are predetermined. This undermines human creativity and autonomy and is why the Soviets and "actually existing socialism" became totalitarian in practice. The party led by masters of Marxist theory and technocrats can guide society through more and more bureaucratization cancelling out the need for democratic participation and subordinating individual agency to the needs of the bureaucracy itself. I believe the Maoists saw this and tried to break from it but China ended up producing the same results because even the red guards embraced the same interpretation of historical/dialectical materialism.

I want bring out Carl Schmitt here for all the leftcoms and anarchists. If you have a radically open society you can easily get invaded by an influx of new people. /pol/ stormfaggot colonization of online spaces proves that anarchic environments are highly vulnerable to this type of invasion or the emergence of extremism within. Anarchist societies would not have the means to resist these invaders. Probably why the Zapatistas are scrapping their communal autonomy model because of cartels moving into Chiapas and causing trouble. The anarchist army could resist an external military force. Its been done before. But an anarchist society is prone to collapse and reversal through inabiliPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>Marx gives us a stage theory of history where human societies evolve from more simple modes of production to more complex ones like capitalism. This entire model is empirically false and it assumes there's some linear tech tree that all human societies must advance through.
No, that's just your misreading of Marx. There's a tendency that people reduce dialectics to the triad thesis-antithesis-synthesis. Well, I also think that there's a tendency that people reduce Marx's analysis of capitalist to the triad slavery-feudalism-capitalism. Looking back, everything does seem linear.

The message you should get from Marx is that capital is univeralizing and history during and after Marx proves this - capital is international, it spread with sword and fire of colonialism and imperialism. Where there is capital, there's a working class and vice versa. Capital reproduces the working class and the enslavement of the working class under capital. The working class has vested historic interest to overthrow this system. That's the big story.

In general I think you're arguing a Marx strawman. With some Twitter ML ghost that ratio'd you earlier in the week.

>>24727
I'm not talking about dialectics. I'm talking about historical materialism and his theories of historical development. Marx is a social evolutionist: all societies should eventually develop the same social and productive structures, regardless of how he thinks this development happens. This really could be a side thing to his whole critique of capitalism which mostly holds up even if its dated. You can accept some of Marx's ideas without being a Marxist and you don't have to believe in X or Y thing Marx said. Marxists try to clobber you into this dogmatism.

That's why I say that free will is not the same as true freedom.

I have come across the most insane and disturbing thing. It's a screen recording on I found on another imageboard, buried somewhere deep with no traction or replies, of a deepweb forum called "The Playground".

The contents are extremely disturbing. People are freely discussing child rape, trading children, and discussing child murder. And beyond that, it seems like there's a whole christian fundamentalist pedo agenda ("Creating a Future for Child Lovers"), where based on some biblical stuff, child rape is normalized, and which is actively fermenting outrage against LGBT in order to prevent sex education in schools - all so that raping kids becomes easier, like it was in the times before Sex Ed. And even more disturbingly, it seems these people are in powerful positions, extremely affluent and have a lot of access to power.

The insane thing is that these are the exact people who are spreading the pizzagate and QAnon conspiracies and hysteria, and several right paramilitaries seem to be involved, eg. Oath Keepers (one guy even posts that they were acquitted for January 6th) and Proud Boys, offering human trafficking services on this board.

There is a lot of mention of the MAGA figures, Bondi, Hesgeth and Tulsi Gabbard - in her case there's even a thread ostensibly containing some sort of videos of her. There's talk of Heritage Foundation and their president Jim DeMint. There's mentions of Silicon Valley figures such as Curtis Yarvin, Musk and Sheryl Sandberg (her supposed "personal collection"). There are several references to Orban and trips to Hungary are advertised. This is just scratching the service of everything that can be seen in the screen recording, which was anonymously uploaded to archive.org by a woman that found this page open on her father's computer.

The leak seems pretty recent, dated to March 2025. I did some searches, but I can't find anything else on it, so it must be extremely secretive. It seems that this has gone completely under the radar, so I'm bringing it here for your consideration. And frankly, I'm scared, because I do think it's real. This is too far out there to be fake, I don't think anyone has an imagination wild enough to come up with this.

Here are the links to the screen recordings and screenshots of the board. There's no graphic content in the videos but a lot of graphic discussions.

The person on dread said they contacted the FBI, but the current director is Kash Patel, who is one of Trump's henchmen.

I don't know if big figures in the American right-wing actually have any ties to the forum. But even if they have no ties, it doesn't make the right look good at all.
So, I worry they would ignore it or cover it up.

Is there audio missing from the video on the wayback machine?

They had a Little Saint James and jeffrey subforum. For those who don't know, little saint james was the island that was owned by jeffrey epstein.

We can see that subforum on the front page in this screenshot.

its money printing in relation to the rate of production, as i have stated many times - thats why USD can afford a cumulative price increase of about 1,700% over 80 years, since real prices have fallen approximately 1,100%. so its an inverse ratio: USD is 17 less valuable, yet wages purchase 11 times more. this is nominal versus real value in the economy.

the great depression was largely caused by bank runs where fractional bank reserves were emptied out and so all the money vanished. it was largely a monetary phenomenon. no money then meant no consumption, and so a declined productive capability. thats why the new deal was largely oriented around redistribution, to stimulate the economy, with keynes as advisor. during the great recession of 2008, there was a quicker recovery since you can just print money.

Given that even in the post-war US R&D was dominated by government investment.
(This is following the replacement of tariffs following the failure of the Smoot–Hawley Tariff Act with R&D expenditure.)
It seems reasonable that an economic system could be developed on the basis of firm cooperation in science.
This is similar to what was advocated in the reduction of "excess competition" in Japanese economic planning.
And interestingly much of the time of high speed growth MITI (the Japanese planning agency) operated effectively as if there was a "national patent trust".
By negotiating acquisition of foreign technology and encouraging sharing of this technology between firms.
In this context there is little reasons for competition in the sphere of the advancement of science, by contrast to application of this science.
(Imagine there'd be a ton of reverse engineering, and the like; and super-profits from rent-seeking with intellectual property would go way down.)
Am especially interested in software with respect to this, would firms eventually give up on obfuscation, of would it be necessary to somehow restrict access to uncooperative actors.
Given free-software is already an extremely common phenomenon even among corporate actors, such as Microsoft.

Feel free to discuss other aspects of R&D.

what do you think would happen if IP was abolished?

>>2403190
That's the question, without financial incentives the government would have to step in to a greater degree.
That is it would have to go back to the way it was like in the 60s, but more so.
That they have to already to cover basic research and long-term investments in the national economy which short-term profit seeking can't is also relevant.
But am not sure that it would workout without some mechanism to coerce cooperation among actors, that is to prevent free-riders.
Am also not sure it would work in industries of pure IP creation like software, and yet very often it does, or software is part of an embedded system anyway, etc.

>some mechanism to coerce cooperation among actors, this is to prevent free-riders.
Isn't this just copyleft e.g. register all technology which uses technology in the patent trust.

Was there ever any advocacy from pic rel. concerning a patent trust or similar?
Know they're actually interested in technological progress that would ensue from removing patents.
But does that apply to other countries as well?
This is hard to imagine.

lolwat? no. sociopathy and psychopathy are both associated with antisocial behaviour and a lack of concern for others. even narcissists if you are confusing them here, can be cruel to animals and babies even with relatively few psychopathic/sociopathic traits

>>745
already got a lot of good replies but I bet repressing will make you a weaker and unhealthier and less helpful communist than the other way around

>>3563
Animal cruelty is not the crystal ball pop psychologists pretend it is.

>>3563
depends
antisocial people sometimes try to justify their behavior by feigning empathy for the most weak (animals and children)
not all the time tho
tony soprano is a famous fictional example of this, btw

Transitioning itself is anti-materialist

Russia is a fascist country. Leftypol sucking Putin's dick like bolshies sucking Hitler's dick in the 1930s and 1940s.

No doubt the fascist mods here will ban me and delete this thread for pointing this out. Nothing can penetrate the cosy fash bubble you have online here.

Are there any genuine leftists here? Or do you all just larp and dress-up whilst espousing fascist ideology?
Miss me with that shit.

>"Russia is EVIL for following what Americans and Zionists have pushed to achieve free market neoliberalism"
So they are objectively not fascist just like every NATO finance imperialist country is objectively not fascism

If Fascism is an European phenomenon then it doesn't apply.

However, if Fascism is a more general reactionary movement of capitalism in crisis. And it's defined by the historical circumsntances in each case…

Then pretty much any liberal democracy qualifies because they are all experiencing the crisis of globalized liberalism in the cold war.

If making Israel look more morally decrepit than Nazi Germany is the intent, what's the point? Sudan is arguably just as bad right now. 600k people died in ~a year just four years ago in Tigray. What now? Some people care, many others won't, now what happens? The bourgeois apparatus stays the same and the potentiality of more conflict, asymmetrical or otherwise, goes untouched. Now what happens?

>Thailand says 12 people killed in most deadly border clashes with Cambodia in more than a decade

>At least 11 Thai civilians and one soldier were killed in artillery shelling by Cambodian forces, according to Thailand’s health minister, Somsak Thepsuthin, while 24 civilians and seven military personnel were wounded.
>Somsak said the Cambodian shelling included a strike on a hospital in Surin province, which he said should be considered a war crime.

>Those killed included an eight-year-old boy, according to the Thai military, which said people had been killed across three provinces. There was fighting at six locations, it said.

>The Thai military said its air force had launched airstrikes on military targets in Cambodia.

>Cambodia has not said whether it has recorded any fatalities. The Cambodian defence ministry said Thai jets dropped two bombs on a road, condemning what it described as “reckless and brutal military aggression of the Kingdom of Thailand against the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Cambodia”.
