  • The imperial core is harder to break because the material contradictions are well dissimulated. Modern Western societies have been historically maintained by the abundance and welfare that is provided from the subjugation and colonization done overseas (this welfare is shrinking as we speak and the European proletariat and subalterns are getting more conscious of the contradictions as we speak). Their democracies, human rights, constitutionalism and all of their institutions are dependent on the bloodshed abroad, which the average citizen rarely perceives beyond the obfuscated facades set up by the bourgeois press and media.

    On the other hand, the colonies that were set up by the Europeans showcased the most advanced stages of capitalism and fascism before they were properly introduced in Europe. It was a case of imperialist dominance and not mere hegemony, which unashamedly flaunted its contradictions.

  • In 1916 in the first South American [Football] championship, Uruguay creamed Chile 4–0. The next day, the Chilean delegation insisted the match be disallowed “because Uruguay had two Africans in the lineup.” They were Isabelino Gradín and Juan Delgado. Gradín had scored two of the four goals.

    Gradín was born in Montevideo, the great-grandson of slaves. He was a man who lifted people out of their seats when he erupted with astonishing speed, dominating the ball as easily as if he were walking. He would drive past the adversaries without a pause and score on the fly. He had a face like the holy host and was one of those guys who no one believes when they pretend to be bad.

    Juan Delgado, also a great-grandson of slaves, was born in the town of Florida, in the Uruguayan countryside. Delgado liked to show off by dancing with a broom at Carnival and with the ball on the field. He talked while he played, and he liked to tease his opponents: “Pick me that bunch of grapes,” he’d say as he sent the ball high. And as he shot he’d say to the keeper, “Jump for it, the sand is soft.”

    Back then Uruguay was the only country in the world with black players on its national team.

  • The discontent is directed at the admin team which is incessantly equating criticism to Israel as antisemitism.

    I'm also pretty sure that feddit-bashing won't improve the life of a single Palestinian one bit.

    We should always fight conflation between antisemitism and anti-zionism, the favorite tool of zionists to dissimulate their heinous acts in Palestine, Syria and Lebanon.

  • "AI-generated" works can be copyrighted. However, on the condition that the AI-generated elements are explicitly mentioned in the "Excluded Material" field. In other words, the parts generated by AI are not protected, only the parts that are expressed by human creativity. Courts in the U.S have already rejected registration for many AI works because of that. Regardless, it's still a contentious matter.

    P.S. I am completely opposed to (generative) AI as well as the copyright system. I'm just stating my findings researching the law and court cases.

  • Hi ex-liberal and ex-fascist, How did you overcome the Red Scare and learn about the truth on the USSR and AES countries?

  • By writing a book about the history and politics of my country. As I did more research for the book, I realized that historical and dialectical materialism seemed to be the superior frameworks to contextualize and explicate the events of the last couple of centuries. When I began writing it, I was a timid leftist; midway through, I had become a ML.

  • Why do the elites do everything they do to accumulate wealth?

    Jump

  • It all comes down to competition, the motor of any capitalist society. If an enterprise does not strive to increase productivity, and therefore not generate enough surplus value, it will fall behind and be driven out from the market by other enterprises.

  • It's not privatization per se, the state company will still operate normally, though not under a monopolistic framework.

    A private company "will assume full management of the activities at its own expense, account, and risk, after demonstrating its financial and technical capacity through a business plan approved by" the nation's Oil Ministry, according to the law. The legislation provides that ownership of the hydrocarbon reservoirs on which a company will carry out activities remains vested in the state.

    Though what I think is more flagrant from the articles I've read is that disputes between the state and oil companies will be resolved by international arbitration and not state courts, which undermines Venezuelan sovereignty.

    It's definitely a law that was promulgated under pressure by the US administration.

  • Sources about social democracy and Scandinavian countries. Do you have any good sources on this?

    Jump

  • There is a neat interview by Breakthrough News regarding this topic. Basically, Scandinavian companies participate in imperialism by outsourcing their labour to third world countries where they could exploit cheap labor and bypass the labor regulations in their own countries of origin. This is a phenomena that is common to all deindustrialized economies that boast about their progressive laws when in reality they are dissimulating exploitation done elsewhere.
