These images of the Soviet people defending the USSR are not something you'll see in the West's "documentaries"... They're from November 7, 1991, in Moscow, a month before the USSR was dissolved.

In Romania, a young white racist harassed and insulted a Black streamer because of his skin color, even spitting in his face, believing he wouldn't dare react live. The racist was knocked unconscious.

Fencing response in da house.

I hope the streamer doesn’t get fucked by the system. In “duty to retreat” states in the US, this might not go well.

China wouldn’t have made it this far without “opening up,” the purpose of which was to accelerate the development of the productive forces by importing capital, technology, and knowledge from advanced capitalist states.

The capitalist states didn’t realize this at the time, though. They thought China’s “opening up” was the “liberalization” of China, as happened to the USSR. China punked them. The West de-industrialized itself for “cheap” labor, and now China holds the cards.

People who use the term “Dengist” are talking about us, when they’re not using the term “tankie,” anyway.

We will see whether there will be peace in the Middle East within 10 days

I’m not sure it’s so unlikely.

I still think it might be a bluff.
Two or three weeks is enough time for a haut bourgeois coalition come to their senses and pressure the hawks into standing down. Some of them must not want to risk a war stretching from Hyderabad to Haifa, with support from China & Russia.
I keep hearing that the Ford is in no condition to engage.
I’m not sure they’d be willing to risk Fattah missiles sinking two carriers and laying bare what a paper tiger the US actually is.

That reminds me, I keep meaning to take a stab at Zettelkasten using something like Logseq or Org-roam.

Okay sure, the present moment is not ripe for revolutionary defeatism, which the CPRF probably understands; not that they’re in a position to mount one right now.

Russia staying stable as an anti-imperialist counterweight is more important than bringing back local socialism.

It’s a false dichotomy, and a resurgent indigenous socialist movement would be no less anti-imperialist, as evidenced by the CPRF’s stance on the war in Ukraine.

New York Times SEETHES in snarky Parenti obituary

Jump

davel @lemmygrad.ml 6d ago

They never printed a piece by Parenti, did they? They blacklisted Hedges over the Iraq war. But Chomsky they platformed as recently as three years ago, the only one of the three to be found in the Epstein files.

Beyond algospeak: active stylometry to bypass Imperial Core Great Firewall regex filters

IA Wayback Machine is also specifically denylisted CIA/NSA/NED/USAID/RFA/OTF/OSF, Zionist and associated NED/Carnegie/Rockefeller endowment organizations

I’ve always suspected this, but have never looked into it. This is where archive.today sometimes saves the day.

Reddit AI stylometric filtering is still in primitive eras

If the spooks aren’t doing it already, one day they’ll be de-pseudonymizing us on social media, by stylometrically matching our pseudonymous writings with our known writings.

How many ML’s are actually doing investigative journalism? Nearly none, AFAIK. We have to get our facts from wherever we can. We can take the information without catching liberal cooties from the messenger.

Unfortunately Blumenthal seems to own the project. I wouldn’t go so far as to paint him as a reactionary, but he’s a weird dude with some awful takes, like those which @Makan@lemmygrad.ml mentioned. Klarenberg & Maté continue to stick around, for better or worse.

Edit to add: The Grayzone never really was ML, so I wouldn’t say they lost that.

I’d never heard of Stoat/Rovolt, thanks. The iOS app isn’t generally available yet, only via TestFlight.
