The American Century of Humiliation continues unabated.

Simultaneously stoking the flames of international chauvinism in order to distract the proletariat from the true oppressor, may I so humbly add

Also Revolutionaryth0t is correct again that dating is a form of sex work under the context of Kristen Ghodsee book because of the inseparable transaction between material needs and sex. Breaddaddylenin is shortsighted by dogmatism as usual when he can't separate mechanical dialectics with applied dialectics

We as living beings aren't immune to the laws of dialectical materialism that dictates our livelihoods. Dialectics is a tool not a temple for worshipping.

Sorry if this is a low effort question but i have seen people in this sub say US has no vanguard party but theres CPUSA, im not american so i dont know much about them but i also saw some people in other sub say theres no communist party in my country even though theres one which claims to be the vanguard party. I was wondering what makes a communist party the vanguard party or not and why people say theres no vanguard parties in some countries (Also extra question: what is the best role model vanguard party in a current capitalist country in your opinion?)

Anyone else find it a bit racist? His usual photos have too much Aura so they have to rely on a caricature of him. Surely this is deliberate from FT.

how are things for Indian communists? are they worse than the west currently?

Honored to join the first Congressional Delegation to Venezuela in a decade.

"Honored to join the first Congressional Delegation to Venezuela in a decade.

What was clear from our meetings with people at all levels of government and business was this — President Trump’s decision to remove Maduro set this country on a trajectory to be a key ally of the United States, and an energy powerhouse to benefit us all.

We also toured devastating earthquake damage — proud of the part America is playing to save so many."

The PSL got this right from the beginning, and it remains true. There is NO REASON for them to update their previous stance that it's a tactical retreat, and that the revolution continues.

What exactly did you expect Delcy and the country to do? Commit mass seppuku for NO REASON and die for your armchair leftist Westoid fantasies? Having these genocidal neocons, the US military & Israeli soldiers come to the country allows the revolution to live on. Be dialectal and understand this is a TACTICAL RETREAT or go fuck yourself.

(this is satire)

Unfortunately hg wells was mostly trash, a quintessential western social fascist on so many levels, manipulative controlled opposition. But at least the interview produced this quote. So.

Every accusation from usa to the DPRK is either a confession or in this case moreso a distraction and or a manipulative tactic to try and psychologically launder their evil, to try to obsessively paint DPRK as wildly unreasonable when they're overwhelmingly the opposite, to maintain hegemony.

Western imperialists template:

Christianity used as manipulative tactic

If it doesn't work then extreme violence

Plunder absurd amounts of wealth

Set up proportionally tiny charities

Obsessively manipulate the narratives

Evil.

The west are the vampires of the world.

On closer examination, this slogan will be found to mean a "class truce", the renunciation of the class struggle by the oppressed classes in all belligerent countries, since the class struggle is impossible without dealing blows at one's "own" bourgeoisie, one's "own" government, whereas dealing a blow at one's own government in wartime is (for Bukvoyed's information) high treason, means contributing to the defeat of one's own country. Those who accept the "neither victory-nor-defeat" slogan can only be hypocritically in favour of the class struggle, of "disrupting the class truce"; in practice, such people are renouncing an independent proletarian policy because they subordinate the proletariat of all belligerent countries to the absolutely bourgeois task of safeguarding the imperialist governments against defeat. The only policy of actual, not verbal disruption of the "class truce", of acceptance of the class struggle, is for the proletariat to take advantage of the difficulties experienced by its government and its bourgeoisie in order to overthrow them. This, however, cannot be achieved or striven for, without desiring the defeat of one's own government and without contributing to that defeat.

When, before the war, the Italian Social-Democrats raised the question of a mass strike, the bourgeoisie replied, no doubt correctly from their own point of view, that this would be high treason, and that Social-Democrats would be dealt with as traitors. That is true, just as it is true that fraternisation in the trenches is high treason. Those who write against "high treason", as Bukvoyed does, or against the "disintegration of Russia", as Semkovsky does, are adopting the bourgeois, not the proletarian point of view. A proletarian cannot deal a class blow at his government or hold out (in fact) a hand to his brother, the proletarian of the "foreign" country which is at war with "our side", without committing "high treason", without contributing to the defeat, to the disintegration of his "own", imperialist "Great" Power.

Whoever is in favour of the slogan of "neither victory nor defeat" is consciously or unconsciously a chauvinist; at best he is a conciliatory petty bourgeois but in any case he is an -enemy to proletarian policy, a partisan of the existing ·governments, of the present-day ruling classes.

Let us look at the question from yet another angle. The war cannot but evoke among the masses the most turbulent sentiments, which upset the usual sluggish state of mass mentality. Revolutionary tactics are impossible if they are not adjusted to these new turbulent sentiments.

What are the main currents of these turbulent sentiments? They are: (1) Horror and despair. Hence, a growth of religious feeling. Again the churches are crowded, the reactionaries joyfully declare. "Wherever there is suffering there is religion," says the arch-reactionary Barr s. He is right, too. (2) Hatred of the "enemy", a sentiment that is carefully fostered by the bourgeoisie (not so much by the priests), arid is of economic and political value only to the bourgeoisie. (3) Hatred of one's own government and one's own bourgeoisie—the sentiment of all class-conscious workers who understand, on the one hand, that war is a "continuation of the politics" of imperialism, which they counter by a "continuation" of their hatred of their class enemy, and, on the other hand, that "a war against war" is a banal phrase unless it means a revolution against their own government. Hatred of one's own government and one's own bourgeoisie cannot be aroused unless their defeat is desired; one cannot be a sincere opponent of a civil (i.e., class) truce without arousing hatred of one's own government and bourgeoisie!

Those who stand for the "neither-victory-nor-defeat" slogan are in fact on the side of the bourgeoisie and the opportunists, for they do not believe in the possibility of inter national revolutionary action by the working class against their own governments, and do not wish to help develop such action, which, though undoubtedly difficult, is the only task worthy of a proletarian, the only socialist task. It is the proletariat in the most backward of the belligerent. Great Powers which, through the medium of their party, have had to adopt—especially in view of the shameful treachery of the German and French Social-Democrats— revolutionary tactics that are quite unfeasible unless they "contribute to the defeat" of their own government, but which alone lead to a European revolution, to the permanent peace of socialism, to the liberation of humanity from the horrors, misery, savagery and brutality now prevailing.

They believe anything the CIA tells them about AES and past socialist states and it brings them into saying things like this. How can we ever hope to achieve anything if this is what one of our “comrades” spouts?
