I'm pretty doomer about the times to come in regards to socialist revolutions sadly

I really hope I'm wrong but I believe that, save for some very few exceptions, the proletariat of most western countries today is so disorganized, so effectively mindwashed, that revolutionary conditions will not be acted upon and fascism will win in a lot of places.

As with the Bolsheviks, it's the weakest link that starts the wave of revolutions and can inspire things to change rapidly in the global proletariat, and I hope that this will be the case in the coming decades, but it's going to take a lot to turn upside down the popular sentiment in most of the west.

If Iran gets nuked even once I wouldn't be surprised if Russia replies with a nuke as well, Iran is too good an ally to let the USA take them out without mutually assured destruction

Glad to see the CIA is embracing open source software now instead of Reddit, good for them

Notice how it's not AI slop unlike the passionless ghoulish abominations that the US shits out for propaganda

If Iran pops the AI bubble and triggers a market crash it would be golden

Morale is not low enough, you gotta make it stink much more, make it truly uninhabitable

I hope the flotilla aid missions are also close to arriving by now, I haven't heard anything new of it

The empire is always gonna prioritise Israel (look at Ukraine rn, or the Gulf, both of which, despite being more "important," are getting no arms).

Why do they put so much weight on Israel though? I know their sole existence is being the USA's feral dog in the Middle East so they are always a good bet for the USA, but don't Gulf states also matter a lot to them since they're already puppet states that unlike Israel also have a ton of oil to provide them?

Ideally for the USA they would spread power to Israel and also a number of their protectorates in the area so there isn't a single point of failure and is also easier for the US to surround Iran.

I suppose the reason is that they lack the resources to do this efficiently so they fully commit to keeping Israel powerful instead.

Fucking love this guy, we need one like him but for every communist party everywhere

 

We are literally a bomb target because we host US bases from which most if not all planes pass for Iran in order to go and murder innocents, but people are still like "yeah but if we weren't in NATO we'd be worse off".

Fuck the privileged west, you could make them face the wall for the profits of some pedophile American billionaire and they would still feel like they're getting a good deal out of it.

May the bombs wake some people the fuck up

I remember some time where this account actually posted Marxist theory in a fun way, now it has completely devolved into turning class issues into man issues and openly calling for matriarchy in all seriousness. She even agreed with a commenter who said that if Marx was alive he'd be in the Epstein files (he would tbh, but in the Fidel kind of way, not the Chomsky way). I hate how many of these influencers who achieve large audiences and could really raise class consciousness just throw it all in the trash and take the easy route of distraction and opportunism. I used to follow her but I can take no more of this shit.

 
 

I'm sure Ticket Tailor will personally capture carbon from the environment calculated exactly to match the carbon produced by the energy plants during the time they supplied energy to the server processing my order with the overpriced fees

 

There's one wishing OP gets fired over this

These people bitch and moan about gulags but they wouldn't notice if capitalists put them in one

 

When reading through Marx I can't help but think that capitalism has gotten even worse today than it used to be back then, meaning that the actual mechanisms that drive capital now need much more exploitation and in more forms than they used to.

Also I wonder if some changes of capitalism have also caused the working class to be so completely numb. Workers of the 19th and 20th century knew that the capitalists have opposite needs to them and only through fighting them could they stand to improve their situation. However today people just seem uninterested to really fight for themselves despite the proletariat being a much larger percentage of society compared to the past. I know I'm leaving out some important struggles going on when I'm saying this, but it still makes me wonder what made workers in the past centuries so much more class conscious.

I don't believe that much, if anything, that Marx critiqued about capitalism has changed on a structural level, but the flow of capital is so complex today, and the collected capital has become so much larger, that it begs the question if this has created some superstructures of capitalism today.
