website used to have a lot of good stuff on it and i'm wondering what they mean by the website being "transferred" as i cant find it anywhere. im using web.archive to look at it rn but i cant access any form of direct action training or anything else on their really

i think most of us already know that you cannot blindly apply soviet or chinese socialism to our respective states without considering the underlying reasons for reform and opening up and the rapid industrialisation of the soviet union. you can't just create a sez in fucking malmo and expect to become a socialist paradise in a month, this is obvious. once a socialist state or multiple pop up in europe or north america, in the near future, the first thing that would happen is, most likely, a complete blockade. the remaining capitalist states in europe or nato if thats still around would either invade you or sink any ships sailing into your ports. any semblance of socialism in the west, especially in the core, would be seen as an existential threat (correctly so, actually). and you dont have any manufacturing capacity at home and definenetly not enough to resist the combined military effort of the west. like, what the fuck do you do once you, as a deindustrialized state with an aging population, have your trade cut off and have to fight a war without any nearby allies? maybe the billions of climate refugees can aid any reindustrialization effort if thats on the table, but thats really not gonna be on the table as intervention would happens as soon as you take control, you just dont have the time. this is ignoring any russian or chinese interference or an unforseeable change in the global economic system within 10 or 20 years, of course. that could change a lot and would be desirable. but i cant and we cant predict exactly how that would change the equation here, so i dont know how i could consider that in the scenario.

many of these states and their governments are openly hostile to communist elements, but a communist party actively opposing their government would risk destabilising it and then playing themselves directly into the hands of the imperialist states. an indefinite "united front" would be desirable, especially in countries like iran, but it seems all leftist organisations in these states have either decided to fully support the government in everything, becoming controlled opposition (KPRF in Russia) or western puppets like (MEK) or whatever the fuck the "leftist opposition" in russia, belarus is.

The power of the Jews even today, especially in America, should not be underestimated. And therefore I have very deliberately and very consciously – and that was always my opinion – put all my strengh, the best I could, to bring about a reconciliation between the Jewish people and the German people.

Not gonna "dox" myself by giving out where i'm from, you can probably surmise it from my post history if you really want to know. My country doesn't have that large of a pro-Palestine movement, not to say there isn't one, there is. Just not on the same scale as neighbouring states. Our largest military trading partner in terms of imports is Israel. the total value of the arms and munitions we purchase from them is around 30-50 million a year and ever increasing as we further militarize to fight against the evil Russians. I know legalism will never work and it will be impossible to halt the import of weaponry through those means but it is good grounds for protest as the ones we see against Elbit abroad. It would be a good way to galvanize opposition to the genocide and Israel in general here as we are dominated by the same kinds of liberals and conservatives which love to couch their rhetoric with legalistic justifications. You hear constant whinging (rarely justified) about breaches of international law in countries that to do not align with the western interest. We are dominated by this kind of liberal monoculture and thus it would be easier to broach the subject with the same kind of framework than without it. The problem is i'm not well versed in international law and would not know how to properly formulate that type of argument, it's like a whole different language to me. I don't know where to even start.

multi-party bourgeois democracy has proven to be too much of a hassle in both instances. there is heavy foreign interference, primarily through fostering the opposition and by direct coup attempts. if you attempt to work within the capitalist system as a socialist you'll associate every misfortune caused by the economic structure of society with socialism. eventually as us sanctions continue to strangle your economy and destroy your nation you'll be voted out and it'll all have been for nothing. i genuinely do not see how allowing the current state of things continue is in anyway beneficial to their programme. seizing power would prevent any overturning of the present reforms and allow for the cementing of revolutionary control. the west will never consider you legitimate as long as you are in opposition to their interests, they'll consider you a dictator no matter what you do.

heard of redact, kanary, easyoptouts, but they all have important services locked behind a paywall

i don't want to detach myself from the current situation dreaming about the possible horrors of the future while sitting in the midst of a genocide, but i feel this is one of those things you kinda have to think about especially considering the scale of its consequences. this isn't a 'nothing matters we're gonna die in a nuclear war anyway!' kindveof here, this actually is something that we know will happen and are already seeing """""gradually""""" take form. my worries here are primarily the response to the migration. we are already seeing far-right governments take hold all over europe and the west in general and as material conditions worsen the need to further act on their racist class-obscuring rhetoric will increase as they push people into a genocidal frenzy, blaming their woes on the hundreds of millions if not billions of refugees. gaza will be as herero and nama genocide was to the holocaust. the chicken must come home to roost and we will see the methods pioneered by our imperialism brought home. no longer will you be watching a holocaust on your phone, because it will be happening right in front of you, or more accurately, to you.

don't think we should be wasting a lot of time pondering this considering the issues at hand but we have to at least prepare for something along these lines as i do not see a future different from the one i depicted being possible without a radical reconstitution of the west. which isn't an impossibility like some doomers seem to think but not within 10-20 years when it really becomes a problem. maybe our only hope is Hezbollah al-Biritaniu like in children of men
