France got it right with 70% nuclear.
There is no reason America cannot go 70% nuclear with the remaining 20% split between solar, wind, geothermal etc, and 10% you can keep as fossil fuel just as a safety backup measure.

Okay dude. When local councils have to pay extortionate prices for things that shouldn't cost too much to produce, which affects more working people than an oil rig in the ocean and hires less people, I'll remember it was a worse evil.

Jolani got locked up in a CIA cock and ball torture facility and then released. He is 100% compromised.

Also you are wrong about Ukraine, they are literally just that retarded the liberasts running things can’t make sensible compromises. The neo-Nazi eastern branch of Azovites are more reasonable.

The function of ISIS as a controlled opposition is to be maximally radical, but to mostly direct that against enemies of the US/Israel. If they started telling these wannabe martyrs “yeah nah mate don’t carry out an attack on the Jews in Australia” they’d be supplanted by other radicals.

In other words those running groups like ISIS have to accept a degree of collateral damage.

I think being forget that ISIS got it's funding from Saudi Arabia and Turkey in order to eliminate Shia and Kurdish elements from Iraq and Syria. Everything outside of that is outside of the scope of what they really care for.

>>2600798
propaganda of the deed is one of the motives of all time but if that were the case wouldn't isis have claimed responsibility by now? put out a statement? they haven't. which is odd because they usually love claiming stochastic terror attacks.

this suggests the bondi shooters are copycats, but the feds have stated there's a whole cell of them. weird shit.

I watched the first 20 secs of friendly jordies video about Bondi. God I hate that guy.
He immediately pulls out the moronic take of "this is Australia, paradise on earth, these people broke our social contract by bringing their overseas problems to our shores.".
Forget that the guys are Indian, India has nothing to do with Palestine. Also implying that Australia is somehow completely removed from global affairs. Such a brain-dead take.

Why do so many on /leftypol/ take imperialist pinkwashing propaganda at face value when 10 years before Obama it was the Christian fundamentalists and conservatives who were saying "kill all the ragheads, bomb the entire 3rd world" and the whole "gay liberal imperialism" thing is a fairly recent development in American society, rather than some kind of eternal truth going back to the Monroe Doctrine?

File: 1764840058518.png (669 KB, 618x3568, haz_lgbt.png)

furthermore, why do LGBT people get singled out as somehow uniquely imperialist when the vast majority of cishet reactionaries also support imperialism?

1. because they want to leftwash their anti-LGBT feelings
2. because they're stupid, superficial thinkers allergic to real material analysis.
3. because they project themselves on to foreign countries, which are sometimes anti-LGBT
4. because their aesthetic preferences derive from a point in time when being LGBT was less publicly accepted

this all combines to give you the ridiculous farce of them imagining that when Deloitte has a pride float, that means they're the ones "pushing" things rather than them being pushed to respond to bottom up pressure. (until it was counteracted by top-down pressure from the US government)

You have to keep in mind a lot of leftypol users were far-right less than a decade ago. Eventually they realized some of what they believed was retarded, but to acknowledge that EVERYTHING that believed was wrong would cause ego death, so they're still clinging onto what they can. This leads to all kinds of mental gymnastics and laundering reactionary ideology as leftism.

I’m honestly curious to know what exactly makes the PMC (university professors, doctors, lawyers, engineers, scientists, artists, those types of people) adhere to the belief system they do. Namely, the psychology behind what’s often termed as “petit-bourgeois radicalism.”

I recently read through two of Caleb Maupin’s books (The American Years of Lead and the one on Trotsky and the Neocons). Maupin asserts that intellectual elites (PMC) are heavily into salon culture and edgy things that have aristocratic connotations. For instance, intellectual elites (PMC) are the ones who hold an overly-romantic view of revolution and romanticize terrorism and political violence. They’re the ones that conjure up images of a big apocalyptic revolution similar to the Christian rapture whereby every little aspect of the existing society is destroyed. He also heavily emphasized that the PMC hates the genuine working/class, because they see them as a threat to their power, so they deliberately manipulate working-class movements in order to offset and eventually dissolve them. Plus, they love sexual promiscuity and use “leftism” in order to promote it.

Last night, I watched a video on Sublation Media between Doug Alain and Chris Cutrone. Cutrone made the point that the PMC romanticize terrorism, mass destruction involving killing and raping, and the “noble death” because the PMC are “gangsters.” Not gangsters the way the ultra-rich capitalists are, but gangsters nonetheless.

My understanding is, intellectual elites love these things like violence and terror for the exact same reason they love modern “art” like Jackson Pollock and jazz and rap “music”: it’s all deeply irrational. They reject historical progress, favour the lumpen and those on the margins of society over the genuine proletariat, and promote destruction because they hate rationality. All of the things they promote as “leftism” are actually deeply aristocratic values: it’s the aristocracy that loves violence, sexual indulgence and a rejection of logic and linear time. I see it like this: intellectual elites, being Nietzscheans at heart, hate rationality and linear progress because they see those things as boxes that limit their ability to indulge, but also the fact that they already have their privileged positions and don’t need a proletarian revolution to have their basic needs met. In fact, a proletarian revolution would mean they lose their privileges and end up working in the fields.Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

>The Professional-Managerial Class (“PMC”), as we will define it, cannot be considered a stratum of a broader “class” of “workers” because it exists in an objectively antagonistic relationship to another class of wage earners (whom we shall simply call the “working class”).  Nor can it be considered to be a “residual” class like the petty bourgeoisie; it is a formation specific to the monopoly stage of capitalism.  It is only in the light of this analysis, we believe, that it is possible to understand the role of technical, professional and managerial workers in advanced capitalist society and in the radical movements.

*              *              *

>We define the Professional-Managerial Class as consisting of salaried mental workers who do not own the means of production and whose major function in the social division of labor may be described broadly as the reproduction of capitalist culture and capitalist class relations.

>Their role in the process of reproduction may be more or less explicit, as with workers who are directly concerned with social control or with the production and propagation of ideology (e.g., teachers, social workers, psychologists, entertainers, writers of advertising copy and TV scripts, etc.). Or it may be hidden within the process of production, as is the case with the middle-level administrators and managers, engineers, and other technical workers whose functions, as [Andre] Gorz, Steve Marglin, Harry Braverman and others have argued, are essentially determined by the need to preserve capitalist relations of production.  Thus we assert that these occupational groups – cultural workers, managers, engineers and scientists, etc. – share a common function in the broad social division of labor and a common relation to the economic foundations of society.

The Central District Military Court in Yekaterinburg has handed down a verdict to members of a Marxist group from Ufa. This was reported by an EAN correspondent from the courtroom.
The defendants in the case are Bashkir Communist Party deputy Dmitry Chuvilin* and his comrades: otolaryngologist Alexei Dmitriev*, pensioner Yuri Efimov*, and two volunteers who fought in Donbass in 2014-2015, fighters of the “Prizrak” battalion Pavel Matisov* and Rinat Burkeev*. Before his arrest, Matisov* was the chairman of the Ufa branch of the “Union of Donbass Volunteers.” The members of the group are accused of preparing for the violent seizure or retention of power (Article 278 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), creating a terrorist community (Article 205.4 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), and preparing to steal weapons (Article 226 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). In the end, the judge announced the verdict:

o Dmitry Chuvilin* — 20 years imprisonment;
o Alexey Dmitriev* — 20 years imprisonment;
o Yuri Efimov* — 18 years imprisonment;
o Pavel Matisov* — 22 years imprisonment;
o Rinat Burkeev* — 16 years imprisonment.

At the same time, an investigation is underway into the case of Left Front leader Sergei Udaltsov***. He was arrested on January 12, 2024, after publishing several posts on his Telegram channel in defense of the Ufa Marxists, which the investigation considers to be justification for terrorism.

The entire thread is an ode to shouting "ERM REVOLUTON NAO PLS" from a position of irrelevance.
The goal for the vast majority of western leftist parties is just to get representation in their respective parliaments (even if that's via liberal bourg parties), but their critique of foreign communist parties that do have representation in parliament, is that they're fake because they're not using their access to said parliament to smear shit over the walls, rig offices with firecrackers, fill up everyone's desks with Marxist literature or anything that would get them thrown out of parliament and then probably outlawed.

The KPRF aren't scribbling "Eat the Rich" over Putin's notebooks, but lets face it, the "vote blue no matter who"ists and the "we campaign for elections but don't even WANT to win"ists, aren't going to do that either if their bid for representation ever works. THEN of course a party needs to be smart about how that representation is utilised.

Never lend money to friends, family, or significant others. If someone asks, just say you’re broke blame a credit card bill or another excuse.
On Relationships and Risks

If you’re debating whether to "wrap it," think carefully. Even if she claims to be on the pill, mistakes happen—and 18 years of child support is no joke. That money won’t just go to the kid; it’ll fund her nails, hair, vacations, and car payments while you’re left with no say.
On College

>Get In, Get Out: Pick a practical, high-paying major early and stick with it. No indecision research careers, choose one you can tolerate (or like), and graduate in 3–4 years max. Dragging it out wastes time and money.

>Speed Matters: Graduating at 21–23 with a master’s puts you years ahead in salary, seniority, and benefits (401k, health insurance, etc.). The longer you take, the more debt you’ll rack up and the higher the chances of bad decisions (like accidental pregnancies or failing classes).

>Live at Home: Stay with your parents during college if possible. Avoid working; focus on studying, lifting, and having fun. You’ll graduate with far less debt.

If You Skip College

No degree? Get a job and work hard. Plenty of non-grads (e.g., construction workers) outearn art history majors working at Starbucks. But stats show grads usually earn more over time—so if you go, do it smartly.

>Never lend money to friends, family, or significant others. If someone asks, just say you’re broke blame a credit card bill or another excuse.

Or you could just say "No, I don't feel comfortable with that." You don't have to lie to your friends and family and significant others, you can just tell them honestly that you don't feel comfortable loaning them money. Sometimes I have chosen to give money to people I care about when they needed help and I was in a position to help them, but I didn't lend it - I didn't expect to get it back or get anything in return, I just gave it to them. In some cases it helped them and in other cases they squandered it, but either way I don't regret anything.

>If you’re debating whether to "wrap it," think carefully. Even if she claims to be on the pill, mistakes happen—and 18 years of child support is no joke. That money won’t just go to the kid; it’ll fund her nails, hair, vacations, and car payments while you’re left with no say.

Why would it be an internal dilemma whether or not to wear a condom? If you don't feel comfortable consenting to some sexual act, you are not obligated to do it. You realize that, right? You should never, ever let yourself feel pressured into having sex, especially unsafe sex, and it doesn't matter if the pressure is external or external, whether it is your own fear of missing out or her feelings of entitlement or insecurity that are pressuring you into having unsafe sex, either way it is coercion and you should never let yourself be coerced into sex by anyone.

>No degree? Get a job and work hard. Plenty of non-grads (e.g., construction workers) outearn art history majors working at Starbucks. But stats show grads usually earn more over time—so if you go, do it smartly.

Or you could also go to college and get a degree - there is no age limit at colleges, you can go there and get an education at any time, you could take a couple of online courses part-time while holding down some job and earn money and get an education at the same time, it doesn't have to be a binary choice whether you want to be a "college guy" or a "blue collar guy" - you don't have to live your live according to these rigid simplistic social identities, you can just do whatever you want, it's entirely up to you and it's your life after all.

Whilst this is happening, Trump has pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking offences whilst going off about how conveniently the whole Venezuelan military high command is full of alleged drug traffickers. Honduras is of considerable strategic importance to the United States. With several U.S. Army bases situated there. Trump has also gone off about how the electorate must vote away from the Libre "communists" and vote anyone else.

many such cases (actually all such cases)

Election protests in Honduras as Congress panel vows not to validate result

Officials of a Honduras Congress panel threatened on Wednesday not to validate the result of a Nov. 30 presidential election, citing an "electoral coup" and "interference" by U.S. President Donald Trump, as counting stretched into an 11th day.

While the ruling LIBRE leftist party has no chance of winning the election, it is throwing its support behind Salvador Nasralla, of the center-right Liberal party, who has also alleged fraud and said he has won the election.
It is unclear if Wednesday's declaration by the permanent commission of Congress, which escalates the election crisis, could be enough to annul the results, which must be validated by two of the three members of the National Electoral Council.

With more than 99% of ballots counted, conservative Nasry Asfura of the National Party was about 40,000 votes ahead of Nasralla of the Liberal Party, while LIBRE candidate Rixi Moncada was a distant third.
But inconsistencies in roughly 15% of the tally sheets require further review, heightening the political suspense, as those could be sufficient to sway the election outcome.

>Then redo for Cuba now that they aren't gonna get any Venezuelan fuel I guess, I'm just dooming.
Yeah. Also there's another problem that is being made worse by fuel shortages.

>Cuba today is indeed a country of sick citizens who do not know exactly what they are suffering from. All they know is that they are being infected by “the virus” – a sinister ghost that has drifted across the entire island, wiping out its inhabitants. First come the high fevers, then red spots develop, or else peeling skin. Vomiting, diarrhea and headaches are inevitable. The hands and knees swell. Victims can barely stand on their feet, and there are those who have not walked again even after the worst is over. A limp indicates a virus survivor. Citizens who drag their legs or complain about achy joints have likely also been hit. According to Maidelys Solano, 38, who was ill at home in Bayamo along with her two children, her father and nephews, every morning in every Cuban neighborhood, people are saying, “It hurts here, it hurts there, today I am a little better, or I could not get out of bed. That’s how all the neighbors are, it’s what they repeat daily.”

>Almost all families in Cuba have had someone sick at home due to the country’s epidemiological crisis. The disease is in fact a combination of several mosquito-borne viruses, a model of “combined arboviruses” that includes dengue, Oropouche and chikungunya, as well as other respiratory viruses such as H1N influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and Covid-19. According to figures published by the Ministry of Public Health, 5,717 new cases of chikungunya were reported in the last week, bringing the number of patients suffering from it to 38,938. As for dengue, the ministry said the disease remains active in the country’s 14 provinces and 113 municipalities.

[…]

>The reasons why Cuba became a hotbed of mosquitoes and disease overnight is what many today are trying to figure out. The authorities have come up with the fact that Cuba has a “virgin” population in the face of a virus such as chikungunya, which was discovered on the island for the first time in 2014. They have also attributed the causes to the months of heat and rain that create favorable conditions Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Are there any reactionary or non communist figures that you kinda support respect or like? And not the I like them because they are a meme or because they sabotaged themselves and their movement. Im talking more so about genuine respect towards them but still disagreeing with most of their policies. It doesnt have to be full like either just some degree of respect.

revolting is one thing
ruling after the revolt is another

I do not mean this as a shitty4chan troll, but we saw similar things elsewhere (Mugabe in Zim, Idi Amin in Uganda). One must be able to honor and approve of the anti-colonial struggle while disapproving of the the governance post-independence.
I would assume that would be the case for most people. Rarely do you get a man who is equally good at fighting and governing. These are the exceptions.

Shout out to Napoleon, Julius Caesar, and Oliver Cromwell for recognising the historical moment and doing what needed to be done

It's easy. Those "american communists" he worked with were soviet aligned socdems. So the socialist movement was surpressed. FDR is a classic fascist.

Why is leftypol not throwing massive support behind Mamdani?

No one believes he’s an actual socialist, however his victory will be the most important victory of the American left of the past 90 years. Why? Because it shows the Zionist Lobby has NO POWER compared to the power of the MASSES OF PEOPLE and we can defeat the satanic Zionist entity not with a violent revolution but simply with voting. Nobody believes Mamdani is a perfect candidate but that’s not the point.

So why aren’t we backing him en masse? His inevitable win will be the biggest blow to US-Zio imperialism in modern history.

If you live in a NATO country then there's functionally no difference between a pro-Russian and an anti-campist position as long as you are promoting revolutionary defeatism against your own government.

As long as the miner's heart beats in the chest,
And the blood of sons runs warm within that heart,
I want the song to be the coal-cutter's friend,
To forge the steel and lead deep into the shaft,
To rivet cages, and to raise up buildings,
And on the scaffolds of great creation
To be an example of the highest valor.

Donbas shall live! Siren calls to siren
The steel good news of miners' friendship:
No one has brought Donbass to its knees,
And no one ever shall!

And there is no land more beautiful, more inspired,
Where all is created by the people, the makers.

If I had divine powers, I would have all Liberal Arts Colleges self-combust immediately.
The SAT-acing nerds with their big glasses create a literary bubble and lull themselves into an alternate reality. When time comes to work and earn money, they pop the revolutionary bubble and join corporate and become HR ghouls.
Of all the 'circles' which are supposedly socialist/communist in America, how many actually have workers in them? If not as cadres, then do they atleast have a worker audience?
While the Bolsheviks were a bunch of lawyers, writers, poets at first, their audience was absolutely proletarian. Which is why Lenin, Stalin and Trotsky managed to conjure up a Red Army of millions seemingly overnight. They had been using the Workers and Soldiers Soviets as Roman 'forums' for many years before 1917. They constantly took the temperature of workers and soldiers.
That is the difference between a vanguard and cringe LARPers.

What is the benefit of trying to reform the CPUSA from within? They are a moribund organization and a totally irrelevant caucus of the Democratic party that sells out what little credibility they have for absolutely no benefit. They have very few members, no resources of note and no power.

like I said, my question was less about CPUSA specifically. the question came to mind because I was looking on their website to see if they said anything about browderism, band they did have negative things to say about it. You're correct in saying that it's just rhetoric and you have to look at their actions, but it got me thinking about the more general question of changing organizations from within. Obviously you can't do that with bourgeois parties, but can you do it with degenerated communist parties? It's a theoretical question meant more generally. You are probably right that it's not worth doing it with CPUSA specifically.

Why is China willingly wasting it's time and resources with the AI thing rather than continuing to develop the productive forces while they're still ahead?

Is the idea that they can lead the west into going all-in on something fruitless with the knowledge that China can tank the damage, merely leading the AI race to get the west to hurdle faster at it? Like the AI race is a tunnel painted on a brick wall? Why would western tech companies knowingly charge into a brick wall like that? Like I know they're stupid but surely not that stupid.

Aethetically S teir for making the robot have a bike helmet aethetic rather than trying to do the android thing like some of them do.

Like I know it's not the uncanny valley, which is a pseudoscientific statistical fallacy, that drives me to dislike the android thing. My guess is human faces are just inherently unnerving. Seeing a human mouth means you get plauge in nature. A masked/hidden/non-existant face is clean and safe. And a screen can do all the smiling and stuff that made faces semi-tolerable. Screen face robots are comforting to me.

No you always play as the US marines. Because it’s meant to be pro us military propaganda. Just like Starship Troopers hides behind fake bullshit “anti war” veil that doesn’t mean anything because it’s still a pro us military movie. Do you get to play as the bugs in the Starship Troopers game? Nope. Yeah it’s all chinlet us military propaganda. Same with that gay Helldivers game.

>Now my first exposure to WH40k was Dawn of War, there I fell in love with joyful band of murderous lunatics that composed Chaos forces

You'll probably like the Word Bearers trilogy then, because they're all pretty gleefully evil and sadistic while also being competent at the same time. The trilogy is a textbook case of bad guys getting shit done and the main character in particular outplotting others by factoring their own plots into his.

>The problem with Chaos is that the writers misguidingly attempt to give characters depth, which goes completely against their fundamental concept as cartoonish evil. Ironically in the process writers even made them evil in ways they shouldnt be. Like in the book Chaos warriors were still xenohobic and discriminated against protagonist due to his gene seed not being "pure". Which, how the hell do you square those beliefs with praying to extra-dimensional entities to reassemble your DNA helix?

There's actually a pretty good reason for this and it's rooted in the general doctrine of Chaos Undivided and the Horus Heresy itself. The First Heretic covers it in detail, but to give you the gist of it the followers of Chaos Undivided believe that the gods are special patrons of humanity, previously patronizing the Eldar before they fucked up. Now the mandate of heaven so to speak has passed to humans, and it is up to the Word Bearers to enlighten mankind to the truth of the Ruinous Powers or otherwise they will be driven extinct by hostile aliens, which according to the doctrine are usurping humanity's divine right to rule the galaxy. All of this of course comes from a daemon princess so the truthfulness of this shit can be called into doubt, but followers of Chaos believe it which is what matters. While the Black Legion and Iron Warriors are a bit looser about the rules depending on what suits them, the Word Bearers especially are even more xenophobic than the Imperium and consider them too soft on aliens. Factor that in with Chaos encouraging internal feuds and rivalries as a method of culling the weak and allowing the strong to ascend and you have a faction full of nasty folks that will look for any reason possible to discriminate against you. Hell the main character of the Word Bearers trilogy, Marduk, faces discrimination within his own Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

>"I shouldn't be shamed for not living up to capitalist society's expectations of me, I should be allowed to be my authentic self without being criticized and I shouldn't have to change myself based on some arbitrary capitalist standard"

This seems to be the sentiment that dominates the minds of zoomers and most millennials that drives them towards the left whether we want to admit it or not. This is what makes a lot of younger people under 40 embrace anti-capitalist politics, question social norms that are the superstructure of modern capitalism, become anti-eugenics, embrace new identity groups, and so on. Look no further than Tumblr from the mid 2010s or TikTok today. My question is, why haven't any communist or socialist parties been able to gather these types of people up? The DSA's entire strategy is simply economistic "healthcare and unions" babble that they weaponize to push the Democrats further to the left. Yet we shouldn't forget that the millennial left (namely, the people who participated in the anti-war movement in the 2000s and Occupy in 2011-12) all folded into DSA by the end of the 2010s. So why can't the DSA bring in those frustrated zoomers from TikTok, the ones who make videos on queerness and unmasking autism and mental health and why nearly all romantic relationships are inherently predatory or whatever? Maybe if the people on that platform were in a political party they'd have actual pragmatic political goals.

the socialist orgs in britain would rather march with the british supreme court and government against transhumanists than shut the fuck up on the issue and risk appealing to people under the age of 40.
and you would too, given you're citing data from "more in common", a starmerite think-tank who exist solely to argue that labour should reject "progressive activists" (e.g. young left wing people and - yes - milquetoast social liberals) and should instead focus on trying to win over hard-done-by working class patriotic landlords who curently vote reform but who'll definitely go labour if labour just announce total transhumanist death, comprehensive remigration for everyone outside Haplogroup R1b, and war with russia.

even then it slips out that they're the only group in britain that isn't entirely classcucked. forget a strike, the rest of britain draw the line at an anonymous employee petition!

>>2599949
in britain the odd situation has arisen that reform UK, the far-right party, accidentally announced a more trans-friendly policy than the governing (very much nominally)-socdem labour government. you can't make a clean distinction between TERFism and the people actually implementing policy. as our china-flagging friend will tell you, the reason that Britain is TERF island is because of our very advanced feminist movement
(consisting of upper-middle class newspaper columnists primarily seething that in 2012 serfs on twitter talked back to them after they joked about ladyboys in a column, engaged in feminist activism on such important issues as "can a transwoman join a woman's birdwatching group?" and "it's finally time for the upper-class men's garrick club to let upper-class women join too")

Revolution almost always requires a brutal civil war so that a new society emerges from it. But the ideal of a new society never emerges immadietly after. We see it with the french revolution, and then the russian revolution. The american revolution seems like an exemption from this. Why is that?

>There isn't much of a question of "what is to be done" or executing loyalists en masse or what have you because the loyalists could just fuck off to Canada and the Patriots who could risk turning on the revolution could be bribed with further expansion.

This is true but honestly when it comes to the American revolution people do downplay the violence between Patriots and Loyalists more than they think due to a lot of American Historians wanting to make it out like the US was the best kind of compromise while the French Revolution "went too far" even though there were a lot of lynchings and land seizures of Loyalists. In fact, the word "lynch" comes from the judge Charles Lynch who went out and did extrajudicial violence against the Loyalists at the time.

While the American Revolution wasn't that revolutionary it was much more violent and would have been much more like being in a Civil War at the time then modern people realize due to how it's been written about by historians. In fact, there's a good argument it has a lot more in common with the English Civil War then many people realize.

So why does the left never talk about "socialized relations of production" being dominant and held back by a reactionary capitalist class?

If those relations don't exist then communism isn't possible and the question of revolution/civil war is irrelevant.

Revolution is dialectical way for accumulated (quantitative) changes to shift to new quality, so if anything doesn't happen then was no material foundation for it

Nobody cares about "revisionism". Nobody cares if you think socialism ended in the USSR in 1953 or whatever. Nobody cares about your position on debates and splits that took place decades before they were born. What people *do* care about is that socialism and can solve the problems that face them, like poverty and colonialism. I've seen people here ridicule the notion that socialism is helping people but there is really no other way to build power. People did not follow Lenin because he had the right ideas but because the Bolsheviks were the only conceivable solution that didn't end in what would later be known as fascism. Why does the CPC have near-universal approval in China? Because their system works and it provides for the people. Almost nobody there wants to return to the days of the Cultural Revolution. And where is anti-revisionist cause celebre Albania today? Now just another NATO puppet state. The entire concept of "anti-revisionism" is anti-materialist because it puts ideas before people. It doesn't matter if you have the right ideas because Marxism was never about having the right ideas. What matters is having the right practice. Here's another truke: If your system can be undone by a single bad actor with mere decrees, then maybe it was useless and was never going to make it in the first place.

it is sufficient to say "i don't care about X" but even that is not worth saying at all because it adds nothing. narcissists always have to pretend their personal dumbass opinion is universal which is why why they'll bludgeon you with "nObOdy cArEs" instead of just quietly moving on from subjects which do not interest them

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.

How about you read this translated article from the actual Nepali youth, who were situated at the centre of the movement? They sobrely analysed the situation they found themselves in and came to a nuanced and intelligent conclusion. Of course, they should have read this months ago, and they should have followed the social media of the Maoists engaged in the struggle who showed the revolutionary potential of the conflicted youth who needed people working within them in order to realise said revolutionary potential and avoid falling to the CIA reactionaries, but these people do not follow any real people and only these CIA/Mi6/FSB/MSS plants like HinKKKle, Greyzone etc., but they didn't so now they must be educated today.

https://redherald.org/2025/09/13/revolutionary-students-front-context-nepal-imperialist-plot-vs-revolutionary-potential/

The "leftists" who call everything CIA are not really communists because they do not see revolutionary potential in the people, but only dumb sheep who would be lead astray by any CIA agent. They do not understand there is great contradiction in any movement and in any body of people, and do not have it in them to work with these masses. These "leftists" are only communists in aesthetics, while in actuality they support maintaining colonies for their favourite imperial power. They are truly the worst of the worst. They are not identifying that the CIA is working in any uprising, but instead they are just angry that the opposing imperial block might be trying to steal away a colony from them, without seeing the genuine potential of the people stuck in the middle. These anti-communists need to be thrown away into the latrine.

Nepal’s Gen Z uprising, born from rage against elite corruption, promised a new dawn of sovereignty….well, just slogans.
Instead, it’s being hijacked by a U.S.-orchestrated color revolution, with Tashi Lhazom’s potential appointment as Minister for Women, Children and Senior Citizens as the smoking gun. Her USAID-tainted resume and murky affiliations reveal a Western plot to install a puppet government, undermining Nepal’s delicate balance with China. As Prime Minister Sushila Karki finalizes her cabinet, Gen Z Karnali leaders demand answers, warning that Lhazom’s role—overseeing NGOs via the Social Welfare Council—could serve as a Trojan horse for American agendas. Nepal’s youth revolution risks becoming a footnote in Washington’s global playbook.

Why Lhazom’s Appointment Screams U.S. Meddling:

- USAID Connections Run Deep: Lhazom’s work orbits NGOs flush with American cash. Girl Rising, which named her a “Future Rising Fellow,” thrives on USAID grants for girls’ empowerment. The Aga Khan Foundation, a USAID partner, funded her documentary No Monastery, No Village. Her Mountain Youth Hub ties to UN Mountain Partnership players like ICIMOD, awash in USAID dollars.

- Free Tibet Ties Threaten China Relations: Educated at a Tibetan Dharmashala in India, Lhazom’s rumored links to the Free Tibet movement raise alarms. “We can’t have a minister pushing Tibetan independence,” says Gen Z Karnali’s Supriya Shahi, stressing Nepal’s need for stable Beijing ties.

- Color Revolution Blueprint: Nepal’s protests mirror U.S.-backed upheavals in Ukraine and Georgia, where USAID and NED fund NGOs to weaponize youth rage. Peaceful marches turned violent, with parliament breaches and arson hinting at infiltrators steering chaos toward a pro-West pivot.

- Embassy Meddling and Gen Z Betrayal: Former lawmaker Gyanendra Shahi alleges U.S. Embassy lobbying for Nepal’s Gen Z uprising, born from rage against elite corruption, promised a new dawn of sovereignty….well, just slogans.

The US government’s National Endowment for Democracy (NED) spent hundreds of thousands of dollars tutoring dozens of Nepalese youth on “strategies and skills in organizing protests and demonstrations” prior to a violent coup which overthrew the government of Nepal in September 2025, leaked documents show.

The documents reveal a clandestine campaign organized by an NED division known as the International Republican Institute (IRI) that sought to cultivate a Nepalese “network” of young political activists explicitly designed to “become an important force to support US interests.” The leaked documents note that the IRI’s program “connects vibrant youth… and political leaders” and “provides comprehensive trainings on how to launch advocacy campaigns and protests.”

The demonstrations organized under the NED’s umbrella would relate to “issues selected” by the Institute and its local collaborators, thereby “ensuring the U.S. concerns with Nepal’s democracy [would] be resolved,” an IRI report statedNepal was rocked by so-called “Gen Z” protests in September 2025 after authorities blocked access to social media platforms including Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter/X, citing the companies’ failure to abide by local regulations requiring them to register with the government. At least 76 people were killed during the resulting violence, including multiple police officers, leading to the resignation of communist Prime Minister K. P. Sharma Oli less than a week after the violence began.

Days later, he was replaced by an interim leader chosen in an anonymous poll which registered fewer than 10,000 votes from Discord accounts.

.Nepal held particular importance for the IRI, the leaks show. The Institute gushed over Nepal’s “strategic geographic location” between China and India, which they said “makes the country core” to Washington’s “Indo-Pacific” ambitions — namely, encircling Beijing with pliable governments and US military installations. IRI initiatives to educate Kathmandu’s youth to “use their power for policy intervention” and to influence “national decision-making” were forecast to have an impact “beyond the life” of the underlying projects. Alumni would not only be primed to cause street-level havoc, but create political parties and run for office.

The leaked files show the IRI drew inspiration from the so-called “Enough is Enough” protests which unfolded in Nepal in the summer of 2020 in response to the government’s COVPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Anyway, answering the question, assuming you’re American and wanting to do low level shit, just be a mall cop and eventually find a stateside role in the defense industry. You’ll get a security clearance, and with that you’ll find low level overseas work. Keep in mind you probably won’t find six figure work (although I did lmao) and just be checking IDs at a hot ass gate in the Middle East for 12 hours with one day off. It won’t be glamorous. If you’re expecting warfare, go volunteer in Ukraine retard

Just have a BBC and shoot BBCs out of your BBC

If your life feels hollow and empty now, having hundreds of bodies on your conscience is not the thing that's going to turn your frown upside-down. Go talk to some war veterans and see how happy and well-adjusted they are.

MODERN DAY BRUTALITY ON A WORLDWIDE SCALE

The policy (the so-called 'War on Drugs') is built on a gross deception: that drugs other than alcohol, tobacco and caffeine comprise a unique group of substances that present an unacceptable risk to health and welfare. This is wholly incorrect: alcohol and tobacco are the most dangerous drugs in existence. The criminalisation of associations with substances other than alcohol, tobacco and caffeine creates a criminal underclass that is the resource for the strategy.

The so-called 'War on Drugs' has absolutely nothing to do with drug use or drug-related harm of any kind: it is purely a worldwide economic system based on intentionally-created crime.

It results in mass imprisonment, fining, asset forfeiture, execution, wars, state-sanctioned murder and endemic violence etc. It provides the pretext under which huge sums of public money are allocated and sustains a massively profitable black market in substances other than alcohol, tobacco and caffeine.

The US oppresses its own citizens under the name of the policy and this oppression extends worldwide, with governments forced to oppress their own citizenry or be chastised and threatened by the US through the United Nations.

Those who profit from or otherwise wish for the so-called 'War on Drugs' to continue constantly proffer the falsehood that the strategy is related to substance use and the prevention and minimisation of drug-related harm. Those who profit from the oppression of others include but are not limited to enforcement organisations and the prison industry, the legal and welfare systems, academia and a plethora of other industries.

The phenomenon continues due to the power and ruthlessness of the US and its ability to generate economic activity. Its true motives are kept hidden via the mass complicity of governments, the press and those who profit from it.

Dreamt my dog upon a glass table, shifting into an arctic wolf, then a polar bear. This occurred in a very light green-white room, faint light entering one corner.

Awhile back my girlfriend did a ritual using Tarot cards to gain insight into the thoughts of people she knew. Ever since she has had horrible nightmares with those same people.

What should we do? Would doing a ritual to remove this work?

The original ritual worked, she has been having dreams from the perspective of her old friends as if she can see into their thoughts but it’s causing the nightmares. Can this be reversed? Should she seek some kind of exorcism? Do some sort of cleaning ritual? Sorry for typos my phone is broken

So this is the multipolarity that was promised

The UAE's strategy is to create interdependence on global, often conflicting power players in order to carve out its little colonialist enterprises in Africa and Yemen. So they submit to US military dominance in the gulf, help Russia avoid sanctions and just signed a new trade deal with China. They also offer a safe haven for oligarch money. This way they can fund this arab supremacist, genocidal RSF and no one tells them to stop

South Sudan army moves into Heglig after ‘tripartite deal’

South Sudanese troops have entered the Heglig oil field in West Kordofan after an agreement with Sudan’s warring parties. The field processes some 130,000 barrels of South Sudanese crude for export via pipelines in Sudan.

The deal requires both Sudanese parties to withdraw from the field and allows South Sudanese forces to protect oil installations to prevent sabotage, Nang said. The aim is to “completely neutralise” the area from combat as battles intensify across the Kordofan region.

South Sudanese troops will not participate in any military operations inside Sudan and will maintain strict neutrality, he stressed, adding the SSPDF’s mandate is limited to securing oil infrastructure vital to both countries’ economies.

The deployment follows the RSF’s takeover of the strategic site on Monday, which forced SAF units to retreat across the border into South Sudan, where they surrendered their weapons.

Economist Wael Fahmy told Radio Dabanga that the RSF’s capture of Heglig is significant but will have limited economic effect. Revenues from the sector have become marginal and “consequently, oil is no longer a vital resource for domestic consumption for the government.”

Heglig’s production has fallen from 65,000 barrels per day to around 20,000 since fighting between SAF and the RSF escalated in April 2023. As reported by Dabanga yesterday, the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) withdrew from Sudan after three decades, citing deteriorating security in the West Kordofan fields.
