GenZedong

Don't you provide an XMPP account for users along with a community room?

I think there's a minor typo in the Ho Chi Minh tagline:

If means to study the universal Marxist-Leninist truths in order to apply them creatively to the practical conditions of our country.

I've read that one so many times and only just noticed!

As expected my motivation to organize is back after a year of election stuff. Got to a meeting with my local group and I'm excited for our new plans. Guess vouching for electoralism just isn't my thing (what a surprise).

There's this famous Dutch Instagram page called cestmocro who posts a lot of pro Palestina stuff (among other non political stuff) and the government is seriously considering banning the account. If this would happen in Russia, China, DPRK, whatever we'd scream bloody murder.

Yogthos new pfp dropped. 👨‍🚀

Anthropic announced partnership with Palantir who are complicit in ongoing genocide.

fkn AI companies. Use free alibaba models from now on.

who is this guy Dan Bilzerian?

Why is he talking about high jewish people in Bolshevik leadership who killed christians during bolshevik revolution?

is this anti semitic propaganda?

Belgian media tried to make a shitstorm about my city's jewish population after what happened in Amsterdam. Antwerp has a very large orthodox jewish population and they live pretty secluded within one of the city's districts.

News reports came out about possible threats to their community which is strange because apart from very singular incidents none of the pro palestinian movement ever targeted them (obviously).

The community now came forward to the press themselves saying that apart from some calls on the street they are doing great actually and that this city is the place to be for them lmao.

Can someone add some context to the positive Milei news we are seeing? Apparently the monthly inflation in Argentina is down to 2.5% (annual inflation still 198%) and libertarians are falling over themselves to say he saved the world.

My back and neck hurt constantly from shrimping all day so I've been doing exercise about it lately, but now they hurt in a different way 💀

Was looking into options here in my city in Canada recently to take a Manadarin class. Specifically I was looking for beginner courses aimed specifically at english speakers, and was surprised at how limited the options were. Then I remembered that several years ago the government went on a racist tirade where they shut down most of the Confucius Institutes in the country for frivolous (racist) reasons. Very disappointing as most of the current options seem to be more aimed at Chinese diaspora who have a background from home but need to practice. I tried before a Mandarin class that was more similar to this when I used to be in uni and struggled heavily as one of the only non ethnic Chinese people in the course. From what I recall the Confucius Institute used to offer classes geared towards adult anglos similar to the way Alliance Française does, but now that option just seems to be gone. Truly this country sucks.

what’s is this YAKUBIAN? can anyone explain these meme or title?

Lol Bayer stocks are plummeting, couldn't happen to a better company 😞

I went bouldering today. One of my coworkers invited me to come to his local place and I figured it would be a nice change from my regular gym routine.

It was a super leftie gym. Lots of antifa stickers, pride flags, vegan food and whatnot. I expressed my desire to find leftist gym buddies here before and I think I have found just the place to get some organizing started.

Also, bouldering is tough shit lol.

My apologies to the GenZedong people for interrupting a democratic proces when it comes to the making of the weekly General Discussion post. I was not aware of the system behind the post making and I created one on my own initiative. I shall repent.

This picture is of girls in the Popular Front in Palestine, specifically Gaza, where the anniversary of the founding of the Popular Front Party is held every year in Palestine. This picture is from Gaza specifically in a football stadium called Palestine Home Stadium.Near this place.

I'm really enjoying "Class struggle" by domenico losurdo, i've been slacking on theory recently reading a minuscule amount of pages per day but ive enjoyed this one a lot.

The global capitalist system is not based in a single oppressive relation, but in a myriad of them and very often contradictory. An american worker, member of an oppresed class, can view with indiference the subjugation of global south countries and sometimes even support it and effectively side with the oppresors. mexican workers, doubly oppresed by being members of an exploited class and exploited nation, can be the "bourgeoisie" in the family by oppresing women to domestic slavery. And this woman, triply opressed nationally, in work and in house, can also take part in the "exploitation of children by their parents". Its a myriad of contradictory relationships that a binary view of things like class reductionism can not explain. We have to surpass the binary view of social struggle.

The violence against Maccabi fans in Amsterdam last week seems to have been a perfect event for the right wing government to restrict demonstration rights and to shift the narrative to the even more pro Israel side

I made a post some days ago about getting suspended on Instagram for insulting a nazi. Yesterday I reported a post on a hooligan fights page in which a guy was sieg heiling and had an SS tattoo. I got a message from Instagram saying that it doesn't break Instagram's policy.

I spend my weekend in the Ardennes part of the country, which has to be one of the most beautiful fall places in the world. Endless hills with brown colored trees on them, cute villages with stone houses, friendly people. I went there with my gf's family and I spend the weekend chopping up wood, lighting the fireplace, hiking and having fun with the family. It once again confirmed my desire to fuck off to a more secluded area and live in contact with nature and solitude. Until then I have to find my way in the city and spread communism I guess.

Our party send a volunteer brigade to Valencia to help with the fallout of the flood. My comrades keep sending me surreal pictures of completely wrecked streets, piled up cars, people's entire furniture collection spilled out onto the streets. It's complete chaos it seems.

Used a sick day to get out of work. I do not have the energy to put up with the holiday rush lol. I don't know what the plan is for the rest of the day now, maybe read some more? I started The Assassination of Julius Caesar: A People's History of Ancient Rome on my way home last night, so maybe I'll get comfy and read the next chapter of that. I've been meaning to watch Nosferatu as well, so maybe it's time for that. I don't really know anything about the movie other than the fact that it's an old vampire movie, so hopefully it'll be interesting.

Do you all prefer to go into media blind, or do you prefer to know what you are getting into? Personally, I like going in knowing as little as possible, but for movies/shows I sometimes end up learning a lot before watching anyways, because I like to watch with my wife if she's interested, but she can't watch really violent stuff and unfortunately there is a lot of that out there.

Haven’t checked on Lemmygrad in a while. How’s everyone been?

My life has been going better lately, just hoping I can continue this momentum into the future.

ngl, im feeling very depressed from work and family issues. The genocide in Gaza, Sudan and Congo also makes me feel more depressed and nihilistic. Some Revolutionary Optimism would go hard rn. (P.S is that image from the PFLP in Palestine? that's fire)
