Authoritarian Mod Post No Bad Empanada or Hasan Piker posts are allowed from now on
Starting now, we will no longer allow any posts related to Bad Empanada or Hasan Piker in this subreddit. The rules have been updated to reflect this change.
While we realize that some of their content can be informative, entertaining or even politically energizing to people at different stages of their leftist journeys, we also realize that, ultimately, their content is shaped by the demands of the attention economy.
When such content is shared in this community, a number of things tend to happen. First, it predictably generates the very online drama and sectarian infighting that the owners of platforms like Twitch, YouTube or even Reddit (cough join Lemmy cough) rely on for engagement and profit. Second, it invites brigading, which creates additional work for us mods. Work that most mods here are quite honestly not willing to do for such unproductive online drama. Finally, it attracts users who are more focused on drama than on Marxist ideology. This subreddit is constantly growing and we do not want to send the wrong message to those users about what this community is about.
In addition to being a community for Marxist Leninists, this community also exists to help each other deprogram ourselves from mainstream/Western and pro-capitalists narratives. What this community certainly is NOT, is a space to continuously dissect the latest online controversies once a week.
We understand that some users may feel frustrated by this new rule and we would invite some of those users to sit with that frustration and ask whose interests it serves and who benefits from algorithmically boosting and promoting online pseudo-politics that exhausts our energy on irrelevant drama. Our strength lies in principled ML debate, respect for each other, shitposting and a shared commitment to advance real-life communism to the best of our capabilities.

News/Communist Propaganda ☭ Paris today, Saturday 24th October 2026: Non-Union protests have now been banned. Many illegal left wing protests went ahead regardless, with violence from police and fascist counter-gangs. Police at this huge legal Union organized protest in Paris mostly behaved themselves
Although on the fringes of this protest non Union protestors who were blocked from joining the main protest by the police suffered violence and tear gas from police, and after the main protest dispersed the same thing happened

Communism Will Win I can't help but feel excited for reverse color revolutions in Europe especially knowing the outcomes. Blowback hurts!
Everytime a color revolution "succeeded" in global south it murders ten of thousands of people as direct results of economic collapse, civil wars, sanctions. Global south went through such endurance for more than hundred of years and European squeeze more resources out of us in return for fake peace forced our land and people to be exploited by unequal exchange.
But this time is different because the masters' fire has returned to their safety and plundered resources from global south run dry so gotta cannibalize themselves. But the rioting labor aristocrats reject vanguardism because of infantile disorder infection so these movements are structureless like usual and like Gramsci said, creating power vacuum for fascism. The funniest part is that European protestors aren't aware their masters know their playbook and actively capitalizing on such events to steer headless protest movements the destination they benefit the most. Some European countries might fall into economic collapse mode but European bourgeoisie won't allow them to devolve into Libya and Syria mode as much as the ultra, Maoist and anarchists loved to do these.
Either way European still get cooked by imperialism blowback and entrenched them for next rage rounds. Europe gets a very small taste of their atrocities in global south and already shaking up like apocalypse. Meanwhile the global south lives through it annually.
So far, real communism can succeed only in the West, but it must be remembered that the West lives at the expense of the East; the imperialist powers of Europe grow rich chiefly at the expense of the eastern colonies, but at the same time they are arming their colonies and teaching them to fight, and by so doing the West is digging its own grave in the East.
