Really? That's incredibly disappointing to hear. I will unsuscribe but I actually liked to listen to some of his more academic presentations...

That's a real shame

I like what everyone else said and then also I dont think anyone mentioned these:

• Empire Files
• It's the Butcher!
• Red.
• Redspark Radio
• The Michael Parenti Library
• Paul Cockshott
• Danny Haiphong
• Marxism Today

Here are the current results of the poll. It will be fun watching Claudia run circles around all the libs in the future 3rd party debate

🗣🔊 Unlimited hostages on the first world 🔥 🔥

He is a white midwestern liberal American that is an active member of the US airforce.

I don't mean to get "third worldist" or "adventurist," and maybe I am just out of my mind right now, but he gets the wall for sure.

I love that quote, never seen it before.

My father and I were actually arguing for over two and a half hours straight. As you can expect, with him lazily going through narratives from the NED, Amnesty International, "human nature," and "authoritarianism." All the while blaming Russians for Amerika's racism, praising the democratic establishment, and defending the first gulf war. We hung up after he conceded on the gulf war.

I don't think their is a single family member of mine (other than like, my cousin) that doesn't deserve the wall.

"I did not have sexual... relations ... with that woman." ?? I honestly have no frickin clue.

Their position is almost similar to the social democracies. Many Nordic countries were under the threat of revolution during the time of the USSR, so the ruling class(es) set up concessions to appease and prevent a full-out revolution by the working classes.

Cuba and Vietnam are still being run by people's parties, but they are appeasing the national bourgeoisie and international bourgeoisie for economic development in productive forces, consumer goods, not being harassed by neoliberalism as much, etc. I am under the impression that most of the "capitalism" allowed is petit bourgeois style -- there is capital owned and worked by the same people. The important thing, however, is that the government is actually democratic centralist or whatever...

(verb) to ally: combine or unite with (another) for mutual benefit.

"temporary ally" and "left unity" are obviously not synonymous, but it would be disingenuous to ignore any overlap

second paragraph

To carry on a war for the overthrow of the international bourgeoisie [...] and to renounce in advance any change of tack, [...], or any conciliation or compromise with possible allies (even if they are temporary, unstable, vacillating or conditional allies)—is that not ridiculous in the extreme?

The Black Panther Party in America, for example, had many anarchist comrades within it, a "rainbow coalition," and so on... For COINTELPRO, however, it is known that Feds have used ultra-left newspapers and anti-AES-focused stories in anarchist papers for psy-ops. Feds mainly targeted the leaders and most outspoken members of the Black Panthers (mostly ML or ML oriented), and many major past members that remain alive are anarchists. Take that as you will.

also, I have an account on both Lemmygrad and Hexbear. All this infighting is making me

"I grew up in a liberal (in the American sense) family, and I identify now as a socialist, though a lot of the liberalism I grew up in has stuck with me"

to

"The GOP is directly inspired by the homophobic attitudes in both countries [Russia and China]. Have you been living under a rock?"

in the course of a few hours. "ummm actually Americans are homophobic because of foreigners sweety, and I care about LGBTQ+ rights more than you"

Oh yeah, lol. I absolutely lost it when the lemmy-er said that "the GOP is homophobic because China and Russia"
