Bulletins and News Discussion from August 25th to August 31st, 2025 - The Limits of Electoralism - COTW: Bolivia
(hexbear.net)
A week ago, the Bolivian left-wing party, the Movement Towards Socialism (MAS), currently led by Luis Arce, decisively lost the round of elections against the right-wing. This comes after a prolonged period of "infighting" between Arce, and Morales, who previously led the MAS prior to the 2019 coup which briefly installed Jeanine Anez.
I put infighting in quotes because despite the nominal similarities between Arce and Morales, it is clear that this is not merely a counterproductive battle between two men - instead, the Bolivian left has arrived at a time of unavoidable conflict between two competing strategies. The electoral strategy is represented by Arce, who has aligned himself with a more middle-class-oriented campaign that is more economically liberal, whereas Morales represents a more working-class-oriented campaign that seeks to go further than tepid reform.
Such a conflict between electoralism and revolutionary action is inevitable in any and every developing country that 1) possesses a functioning left-wing party or organization, and 2) is under internal and/or external pressure by capitalists. This crisis must be resolved eventually - and this electoral failure is how such a crisis is manifesting right now. So while the Bolivian left has indeed lost the election, it is not yet defeated. The revolutionary campaign can, if it is willing, still ultimately stand triumphant. But what must be done is a real movement towards socialism, which goes beyond technocrats reforming from above, and instead transforms the state into a full political project of the working class, in which their movements, organizations, and protests are genuinely empowered. Such a project will involve repression by the forces of reaction, not least by the United States, but it is the only road left to take.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict
Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists
Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict
Sources:
Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map. Their youtube channel has substantially diminished in quality but the map is still useful.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have interesting analysis. Avoid the comment section.
Understanding War and the Saker: reactionary sources that have occasional insights on the war.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict. While he is a reactionary and surrounds himself with likeminded people, his daily update videos are relatively brainworm-free and good if you don't want to follow Russian telegram channels to get news. He also co-hosts The Duran, which is more explicitly conservative, racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-communist, etc when guests are invited on, but is just about tolerable when it's just the two of them if you want a little more analysis.
Simplicius, who publishes on Substack. Like others, his political analysis should be soundly ignored, but his knowledge of weaponry and military strategy is generally quite good.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent and very good journalist reporting in the warzone on the separatists' side.
Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.

Rare Props to Zelensky ,
He was under enorm Pressure from the (godless) West to Send the last intact Bracket of the Ukrainian Society to the slaughterhouse the 18-27 year olds (might be even just 18-22) .. and now he has even opend the Borders for them so they all currently "get the fuck out" , thereby ending this hole topic once and for all ..
Zalan's Key 👌🏾
Pretty sure he did this to stop under 18 olds from escaping the country while they still can. Also there propably wasnt that many 18 to 21 year old males remaining since they could have left during 3 years of war if they wanted to escape the draft. Also these age bracket werent that big to begin with due to the disaster of the fall of USSR.
Wow its been going for over 3 years now.
reports that israel killed yemen's pm (sorry if already reported here)
death to israel 
It is uncanny how good the zionist intelligence is.
They were able to bomb the bunker the Iranian president and command staff were in and only didn't target the supreme leader because he went totally off grid and not even the military or civilian leadership were able to find or contact him. They found and bombed Nasrallah's bunker and killed him. They've successfully killed most of Hamas senior leadership as they existed at the start of Oct 7th. And now this.
How do they do this? I get having deep penetration of a society like Lebanon because you've been at war with them for decades and plan to destroy them eventually anyways. I get the Gaza situation because of starvation, deprivation, turn-coats, blackmail networks. But how do they do this in Yemen? It really must involve signals intelligence and extensive hacking campaigns of an unprecedentedly sophisticated level.
The axis of resistance is going to continue to struggle as long as they can do these highly effective decapitating strikes.
An abundance of traitors and also most of these governments try to work with international institutions. Israel was able to kill Iranian civilian nuclear scientists in their homes with their families because the IAEA leaked the info to them. Working with the IAEA and following the nuclear deal was a huge mistake for Iran.
It's less that zionist intelligence is competent and more the fact there are several highly ranked traitors within the leadership of the Axis
This flows directly from the fact none of these orgs are socialist in nature and infested with capitalist mindsets, making them infinitely vulnerable to monied penetration, socialist orgs aren't immune but there's simply more buffer, as the inherent nature of socialist organizing repels people with severe lumpenprole character
A single well-placed 100,000 dollar bribe can lead to the deaths of dozens, western intelligence doesn't need skill or operational vision to pull this off, simply flood the communication networks of the axis with dozens/hundreds of offers worth millions
Don't forget the Saudi, UAE, Egyptian, Qatari, Jordanian etc etc etc collaborators and kapos who help with the process.
Israel is the west's testing ground for surveillance tech. They probably have the best intelligence in the world. Not to mention the US share practically everything they know with the Israelis
On the other hand, I'm also surprised that the resistance can still fight after all these decapitation strikes. It makes me doubt if decapitation strikes even work.
is it good intelligence or bad opsec?
May they blow up the Knesset in kind.
Axios: Scoop: White House believes Europe secretly undoing Ukraine war's end
Some people are going to eat this up, but it's literally what the US State Department wants you (and Russia) to believe. I bet this so-called "scoop" was deliberately planted in the media by them.
Europe has zero independence. They are doing exactly what the US tells them to, which is to bump up their military spending and keep the Ukraine war going for as long as possible, while the US shifts its focus elsewhere. It's all "division of labor" and "strategic sequencing," as Brian Berletic has been harping about.

A Hexbear fav makes a return.
Doesn't get any richer. Former self-proclaimed "interim president" Juan Guaidó, now living off of stolen Venezuelan money in some fancy condo in Florida, still pretends he speaks on behalf of the Venezuelan people. Where does the US even find these muppets?
Juan Guaido: "Venezuelans also recognize the effort to bring fugitive Maduro to justice. This targets Maduro and is an operation against organized crime, not against Venezuela or its citizens. It was Maduro who violated sovereignty by stealing another election on June 28."
I like how not even the US know who they fuck they recognize in Venezuela, they don't even remember Edmundo Gonzalez anymore lol.
Cuban president begins Asian tour of Vietnam, China, and Laos - Prensa Latina
Article
Havana, Aug. 30 (Prensa Latina) Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel has begun a tour of Asian countries that will take him to Vietnam, China, and Laos to accept invitations extended by his counterparts, the Presidency reported today.
According to the statement, the president will participate in events marking the 80th anniversary of the proclamation of independence and founding of the then Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.
As part of the agenda, the Cuban president will meet with the main authorities of these countries and visit places of political and economic interest.
The visits to Vietnam and China are of special significance, as they take place in the context of the 65th anniversary of the historic relations of brotherhood, solidarity, and cooperation between our countries, the source said.
The meeting with Laotian authorities, the statement said, will reaffirm the priority Cuba attaches to fraternal and friendly relations with that brotherly and socialist country.
The tour will promote the development of bilateral cooperation with these sister nations, the implementation of existing agreements, and accelerate the joint construction of the Cuba-China Community of Shared Future.
The delegation is composed of Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez, Central Committee member and head of the Communist Party's International Relations Department Emilio Lozada, and Minister of Foreign Trade and Foreign Investment Oscar Pérez-Oliva Fraga.
New polling this week shows that Lula is still underwater but has made dramatic recovery in overall approval ratings. Comfortably leads every major potential 2026 challenger. Lula allies reportedly giddy over the improvements they’re seeing in public support. still…..long way to go.
You think the Housecleaning has Started in Ukraine ?
Guy seems to have been the Intermediator beetween the Faschist Blackshirts and the Goverment so thats a pretty high profile Assasination
Could be CIA cleaning out, Could be the Ukrainian Army killing the hardliniers , Could be russia approving new Target banks.. Could be even Zelensky trying to get breething room , could be Lone wolf..
I don't think the Russians would kill him because he's a key witness to atrocities and subterfuge that could prove or provide evidence (even unwittingly in memoirs or friendly interviews) that would further Russia's case of Maidan definitively being a color revolution by the US. Frankly removing him from the picture this late after the Nazi coup, after the total take-over of government wouldn't help them.
On the other hand the CIA would really want to prevent him blabbing about and establishing more hard links to US color revolutions and support apparatus and the SBU would kill him on their orders or to tie off a loose end of their own for the afterwar period to prevent any real justice or establishing of facts and leave it a he said she said situation between Ukraine, Russia, and the west as to Maidan/2014 and all that followed. Ukraine is losing so doing this kind of work to prevent accountability, spare those who are currently more hidden who were part of the apparatus by cutting off the visible parts makes most sense.
Beyond that Zelensky doing things to remove threats who might want to kill him for losing and/or support the bandarite hardliner faction in the elections is also a plausible motive.
I just don't think the Russians have a reason at this late stage to do that when they're finally winning and there might be a reckoning and a lot of these freaks will be blabbing about how the fall of the reich was not their fault and how great they were at the start doing all these other things and others are to blame.
Ukraine is losing so doing this kind of work to prevent accountability, spare those who are currently more hidden who were part of the apparatus by cutting off the visible parts makes most sense.
that makes sense .
There's so many possibilities it's really hard to judge. There's thousands of reasons people would want to kill this guy.
The only thing that does strike me is that he was shot 8 times. That almost seems personal for a shooting that was carried out the same way the United Healthcare one occurred with just 3 shots.
Perhaps I'm wrong and it's indicative of "shoot until the target stops moving" style of training?
Zelensky has also allowed its last Reserves of Drone futter (18-22 year olds) to leave the Country instead of Forcfully conscripting them .. Now a Hardliner got got..
Maybe Zelesky saw god or something ?
I know sometimes operator types shoot people a lot in assassinations in order to ensure the target is definitely dead (operators generally being lunatics also probably factors in too, let's be real) but equally I could also buy the shooter being personally pissed off, as you say there's thousands of reasons so you can't really rule anything out.

Yesterday a friend of mine texted me a job offer he saw on Linkedin: A position for an "Expert on large-caliber automatic weapons" is open in... the Ukrainian Military, tactical knowledge and tasks are required as well (meaning the bozo who takes the post will get drone'd). The pay is around 1,100USD to 2,600USD, you will get to work "officially for the Ukrainian Armed Forces".
The issue? Apart from the obvious thing that the Ukrainian MoD is recruiting on Linkedin.., this job offer is for argentinians lmao. It was posted two months ago and it's still open to this day.
Ukraine is really pushing hard for south american mercenaries... so far only a few argentinians have travelled there to fight (about a dozen or two iirc), the vast majority are colombians. And while this might seem like a specialist role position, who knows what they can come up with in the future. Also, that pay is VERY good for south american levels. They prey on our low wages, as well as the general sentiment of "nothing to lose" for easy recruits.

Yes, they also have attempted to recruit some Central Americans and Mexicans (The Cuban goverment was notified by Russia about this, iirc). I don't believe theres a single english article on how Ukraine has, since 2014, trained and armed a bunch of far-right neonazis latinos, specially in South America. I vaguely remember a radical group of Bolsonaro supporters saying they wanted to "Ukranize" Brazil and that they were inspired by Azov, there were other smaller groups in Bolivia and Venezuela, specially around 2018 - 2020.
Yeah that's the worrying thing about this. Ukraine is allowing them to create tendrils of trained, battle-hardened fascist paramilitaries with contacts with others around the world for the CIA to use in the coming years and decades for all kinds of mischief all around the world. It's bringing together all the scum, radicalizing them further into reactionary politics, training them, giving them contacts and even after Ukraine ends these people will be carrying out coups, color revolutions, Maidan type false flags, etc for several decades to come in Latin America, in Africa, in Europe potentially, in Asia, etc. Even as the US loses one pawn it positions itself and builds a wider network for the next phase globally.
The pay is around 1,100USD to 2,600USD
per day it's too much for them too offer
per week could be plausible
per month this is bullshit wages for getting FPV drone'd
In Brazil they were offering 5k USD per month and that's life changing money.
Oh I forgot to say it was monthly pay, which for south american standards is much better than what you can normally get here.
surely it is per month
"poverty line" in USA is 1,300 USD per month so it sounds really ridiculous
the listing is targeted at Argentinians where that goes a lot further
yeah it just puts the inequality in very stark relief when the price for being targeted by a robot death aircraft is so cheap
Absolutely, there's no doubt about that. Imperial policy goes brrrrrr
1300 usd a month is comfortable middle class territory for a lot of Latin America, though.
Andriy Parubiy, one of the culprits of the Odessa Trade Union Massacre and a major organiser during Maidan was shot today by an unknown assassin. He is also accused of being part of the team that carried out the shooting of civilians that escalated Maidan.

Certainly but I am somewhat torn on my feelings of it, he deserves it but he takes so many secrets and answers to his grave. I would have preferred to see him captured.
This is my take as well. The US benefits more from his death than Russia.
🇾🇪 Yemeni Presidency: — In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
"Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah. Some of them have fulfilled their vow by death, and some are still waiting, and they have not changed their commitment in the least." This is the truth of Allah Almighty.
In triumph for the oppression of the Palestinian people, Yemen waged the battle of the Promised Conquest and the Sacred Jihad, achieving great honor and offering convoys of martyrs from the heroes of the Armed Forces and other sons of the great Yemeni people who carried the banner and pledged to Allah to remain steadfast in truth, no matter the cost.
Today, amidst the open battle with the "israeli" enemy entity, we announce to our people and nation a new constellation of great martyrs from the national leaders who represent the Yemeni people in all its spectrums. We declare the martyrdom of the fighter Ahmed Ghalib Al-Rahawi, Prime Minister in the Government of Change and Construction, along with a number of his fellow ministers. The criminal, treacherous "israeli" enemy targeted them in a regular workshop held by the government to evaluate its activities and performance during a year of its work. Others of their companions were also wounded with moderate and serious injuries and are under medical care. This occurred on Thursday afternoon, the fifth of Rabi' al-Awwal 1447 AH.
We reassure our great Yemeni people and pledge to them that the government, with the help of Allah Almighty, will fulfill its role in the framework of managing affairs, and institutions will continue to provide their services to the steadfast, patient, struggling Yemeni people. It will not be affected, no matter the extent of the calamity... and the blood of the great martyrs will be fuel and motivation to continue on the same path.
We affirm to our great Yemeni people, to the oppressed Palestinian people, to all the sons of our nation, and to all free people in the world, that we continue our authentic stance in supporting and aiding the people of Gaza, and in building our armed forces and developing their capabilities to face all challenges and dangers, just as our great Yemeni people are present in all fields and arenas with all determination, will, and faith.
Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return, and Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best Disposer of affairs.
Immortality and mercy for the martyrs. And healing for the wounded And freedom for the prisoners And glory and victory for our dear people and for all the free people of the nation. 7 Rabi' al-Awwal 1447 AH August 30, 2025
In response
“Today, the President of the Supreme Political Council issued Decision No. (6) of 1447 AH appointing Mohammed Ahmed Ahmed Miftah, First Deputy Prime Minister, to act as Prime Minister”
