“evil see see pee has breadlines”
What? You mean that there are dedicated community services fully financed by the state to feed the community actual shelf-stable food that isn’t spoiled or expired? It’s free too and accessible to anyone not just church-members or specific townships? Sounds better than America.
“people disappear in evil see see pee”
woah, wonder what ICE is doing these days.
“You don’t have freedom in evil see see pee”
Don’t make any Charlie Kirk jokes or your employment is subject to scrutiny!
“social credit score”
economic credit score
“apartments are only 15ft by 15ft big, standing room evil see see pee”
sounds better than a closet you pay 200 dollars a month for to live in
Why is that evil china propaganda sounds better than most living conditions American proles live in?
Glad that CPUSA candidates won in local elections, especially in places like Texas.
Pushing the overton window left!
Always a good thing to see.
Our party has a magazine every once in a while and for this season’s issue they had an analysis on the increasing military spending and how young people are lured into the army. One point they make is that not necessarily Russia is the main goal, but China. And I think that’s interesting and I’m glad they are daring to say it out loud.
There is a general increase in pro China sentiment within the party. Which is nice.
That’s great to hear. I was afraid that maybe they would go in the wrong direction
Is this DKP? or KPD I don’t remember the name exactly but I read their bulletin and the subject is interesting. European countries especially Germany are actually struggling to get people to enlist.
It’s Workers Party of Belgium
No DKP in Belgium yet (unless Germany decides to do another gamer move through the Ardennes at some point in the future). And no KPD anywhere anymore, sadly…
I’ve started reading through some of my lefty books the past couple of days again, currently reading Immovable Object: North Korea’s 70 Years at War with American Power by A. B. Abrams, from 2020. I have two other Abrams books, but next up might be either The Jakarta Method or Killing Hope, I haven’t decided, and also a re-read of Blackshirts and Reds.
I turned 32 yesterday, and I just want to at least have a better background knowledge than I currently do on some countries, and I’m on a bit of a DPRK-binge right now, having read Gowans a couple of months back.
Police deployed water canons and tear gas on us yesterday while protesting for Palestine. The reason given was that we were not protesting on the right place. We were at City Hall instead of on the Riverside where nobody will see us.
If you aren’t getting pepper sprayed or blasted with water cannons you aren’t really protesting.
The imperialists are attempting color revolution in Mexico.
What kind of grievances can one even concoct against Sheinbaum? Homework? The bus system? When I call my relatives they seem convinced she is a saint vs Maduro who flip a coin that day may be fentacularly terrorizing wee landlords in Chicago
They have been incompetent handling insecurity and last week some city politician got whacked and the opportunists are trying to use that as a weapon.
Figure this is what they want Vz to look like, neck chainsawers running arnd massacring mayors while they bomb shit The power of Chavismo is too great however, the will of the people to fight is there
happy anniversary of the october revolution!
Have a good week, comrades, stay safe.
As always, communism will win.
Some typical candy from Russia:
I am not immune to advertising… I would buy the Lenin candy…
Kamala is the most honest politician I’ve ever seen because she can’t help but reveal that she has no principles and no actual plan everytime she speaks.
bleh
Jon you look pathetic here! Pull yourself together! Grown ass man looks like he is going to cry
You wouldn’t want to cry if you had to listen to kamala blathering?
My exact reaction to waiting for someone on pills trying to form statements tbqh but I’m not in showbiz
There’s this neolib politician in Belgium who from time to time makes based comments by accident. He fully supported Palestine at one point and now with the new government failing to form he told the prime minister to call to Vietnam to see how they did things some time ago as he saw that as a great example of what to do.
Please, do adopt Vietnamese mindset.
Well, this definitely sounds based, and if they were serious about it, it would be great, whenever a first world country talks about imitating the success of a country whose development they have systematically sabotaged on every level while they themselves subsist from neo-colonialism, I can’t help but get angry, even for Belgians. These people are completely unwilling to implement capital controls, which would to curtail the people who are ruining their own societies.
It will be nice to see Vietnam engender the sort of cope China does as infrastructure, agriculture mechanization, urbanization, even semiconductor manufacturing in time take shape. Maybe BAP crew will discover Aryans created Vietnamese civilization
What’s happening right now is really exciting and trying to trim it down to a few sound bytes for you all would be as much of a disservice as the western Abundance guys saying when China has trains it’s Abundance bro
So my union might be taken over by capitalists. The member parliament didn’t vote for a plan by the supervisory board that would basically turn the union into a company where the supervisory board would appoint the board of directors instead of the member parliament. So now the supervisory board is suing the member parliament. One of the people in the supervisory board is a former politician for the socialdemocratic party who helped implement austerity policy. Proves that socialdemocracy serves to destroy the workers movement from within.
During the allied occupation of Germany, the us basically removed socialists from union leadership and put conservatives in their place, so nowdays unions just rubber stamp company policies. And remember it was polish unions that brought down their socialist republic.
Most unions (exceptions?) in the imperial core are not revolutionary in the slightest, their goal is securing overtime + wage stabilization for a select group of workers. You guys need land reform, capital controls + expropriation measures, employment & education provisions. None of that is a part of western leftist politics, including the stuff that postures as radical and antiimperialist. If it doesn’t even educate people on the economic structure of imperialism, how can it be revolutionary because it quotes Sankara? Mamdani is easy to criticize. People need to see what the PSL, the FRSO, and others are doing by repainting failed Vietnam War era sheepdog tactics that coincided with the repression of armed movements and the successes of Ho Chi Minh, taking credit for the sacrifices of the latter
Yeah. Remember when the dock workers union shutdown for a while but carved an exception for military shipments lol. America is a joke with zero class conscience.
Local socdem party made a video in which they send a honorable membership card to Mamdani saying he could be one of them but they are also in the government who wants to cut all social security down to a minimum, among other right wing things.
They got rightfully flamed for it.
Everytime a new drone pops up in Belgium, which is several times a day right now, I can’t help but play 99 Luftballons in my head
Still no photos or videos of these alleged drones? And i don’t mean just random civilian drones in civilian neighborhoods or out over random fields, because we know that regular people use drones all the time nowadays to film videos, you can see tons of drone videos made by regular people on YouTube in lots of different countries. I mean these supposed super advanced stealth drones over airports and military bases.
And if they are so worried about these civilian drones that they needed to call the military to deal with them, why did they allow them to be sold in these countries in the first place? Ban drones from civilian ownership if you are so paranoid!
No clear footage of them. They are mostly there are night and mostly around military bases or airports. Not even the military knows what to do. Apparently just shooting isn’t an option.
