he "kills himself," intelligence goons immediately walk out with the body, coroner signs or is ordered to fabricate this report. that would be my best guess.
he has had this same mostly pro dprk position for nearing a decade now for the record. there should be a clip around somewhere of him playing "chollima on the wing" for a cab driver a few years ago as well.
Western leftists expect a population with undeveloped consciousness to all get onboard with their preferred perfect project that doesn't exist before they will actually do or support anything.
i think that's basically the core of it yeah. criticism is of course an important part of understanding current actors, but the nature of that criticism has to be commensurate with material reality and based on actual facts. everyone wants to do what they think is agitprop (it is online debating) and no one wants to go do organizing and education (does not happen, by definition, in niche online forums for those of us that are already pretty radicalized). educating especially is incredibly difficult and frustrating. for myself, i'm not in organizing right now, but i try to stay aware of that. i know that if i want to complain about someone's consciousness raising project that i don't think is radical enough, i need to actually organize my own that demonstrates its utitlity. online campists effectively fail to understand that the context and audience for like What is to be Done? were other organizers in Lenin's political movement that he was but a part of. i could go on, but i'd just be rehashing your take less eloquently.
imagine trying to explain to any indigenous group on turtle island or in africa that the soulless mayoids that are about to invade, genocide, and enslave them are exclusively ruled by petulant children wearing silly clothes and wigs and funny hats.
pause. wtf does that even mean? is he wiping his ass with fucking fabric? is he just regularly annihilating plumbing everywhere he shits or something? i don't understand.
i am begging so-called MLs to stop doom-posting about a guy that is not subject to party discipline and is one executive, especially on the basis of active misinformation. it is making my mind ill. this is not useful agitprop and its not honest criticism. if you are upset about a DSA soc dem not organizing militant cadres, i don't know what to tell you, why would you think he might do that? as i have said before, i also wish that PSL's vanguard has been more successful, but the angle of this criticism isn't going to accomplish that. i appreciate your even-handedness mk, i've felt like i'm losing it trying to be even-handed myself.
i think this one's kind of interesting because at this point the judiciary seems to me to be playing the most pure distillation of the expression of the opinions of capital on trump admin policies, so this i think in some sense represents capital formally telling trump that they don't like the tariffs. it will be interesting to see how that develops. i think trump will probably just keep levying them one way or the other, but the tension with capital might be interesting. or maybe they'll just fall in line behind the fuhrer, not sure yet.
as not a new yorker that hasn't been following this closely, i'll wait to see before judging the budget negotiations. i'm not clear if this is taking into account the proposed wealth tax.
no, i think the much more obviously unacceptable betrayal is resuming homeless encampment sweeps. any more details on that? they glaze past that atrocity against human rights in this article.
what retreat from Minneapolis? i've heard this again and again, but a friend that lives there has said that the federal occupation continues largely unabated.
one step closer to
