"When Africa becomes economically free and politically united, the monopolists will come face to face with their own working class in their own countries, and a new struggle will arise within which the liquidation and collapse of imperialism will be complete."-- Kwame Nkrumah
Czechs are surprisingly good at being pioneers of hatred, but they are not very good at doing something about it unless the victims are defenceless. Like when they forcefully sterilised Roma women. Their hatred for Roma can only be matched by how much they hate Ukrainians.
Western Marxism at its best: blind to reality, anacrhonistic in analysis, ignorant of solidarity, and idealistic about the objectives. Or maybe they are just part of the labour aristocracy and defend what's good for them.
The idea that workers in wealthy countries like the United States are part of a “labor aristocracy” bought off with the fruits of imperialism is nonsense. The best way to build a movement against US imperialism is to build the labor movement domestically.
When I was his age I was watching my country disappear in a bloody war, our living standard vaporase due to sanctions, and household income drop to a few dollars due to 1000% daily inflation.
Folks in the West do not realise that the their concepts of left and right do not make much sense in the post-socialist societies. In the West, the institutional "left" and "right" are just two poles of liberal spectrum that share common ideas ideas about the role of the state...
Er, what? “East Germany”’s right-wing turn has nothing to do with “communism”; it’s a reaction against the disastrous impact of the East’s colonisation and dispossession by West Germany upon reunification — and the subsequent collapse in living standards.
The denial of multi-polarity as the theory of "two imperialisms" is a privilege of those that are cosily settled in their imperial mode of living, so they this luxury to put all the weight of the risk of their idealism on the shoulders of the Third World
These Olympic Games are proving to be a disgrace exclusively because the increasingly-isolated colonial West is treating its Global South guests — from Algeria to China — with levels of incivility and arrogance that besmirch the very spirit of the Olympics.
NАFО posts about the end of WW2 be like: “Heartbreaking: this beautiful German couple tragically took their own lives to avoid being attacked by the evil ruZZian hordes rаping and pillaging their city.”
Zak Cope can renounce his past but it will forever haunt him as it is the only meaningful and valuable contribution he made to this world (regardless the maths). He will not be remembered by the new work, but the old one and esp. by how he turned his back on it.
"We, the knowers of Marx and Lenin, the protectors of the Ways of Revolution, condemn this act of Palestinian imperialism against the toiling masses of Israel and against the unity of Jewish and Arab working class. We support the fictitious Third Way to the imaginary liberation."
Western Marxism of today is what Second International's Social-Democracy was 100 years back: the way for working class to become petit bourgeois over the backs of peripheral labour. Except for the fact that Western Marxism is organisationally incapable of building a welfare state
Чак иако је само церемонијалног карактера, ни један европски дипломата, а још мање глава државе није показао ни десети део поштовања према Србији као председник Ши. Уцене, пони��ење, физичко и економско уништење, распарчавање и колективна кривица.
When talking about Palestine and you hear "it's complicated", it means the person saying it is struggling to find politically correct terms in expressing support for genocide.
Genocid se osuđuje uvijek i svugdje, i u Gazi i u Srebrenici.
Podržavatelji osude genocida u Srebrenici svoju iskrenost trebaju pokazati zaustavljanjem genocida u Palestini.
Bliži se i dan osude genocida u Gazi, ako Bog da.
By far the best address was that of Nicaragua. Their voice was that of Third-World its: genocide of people of America and Africa, colonisation, looting and the hypocrisy of the West.

The time has finally come.
We're excited to announce that we will be releasing a brand new and official translation of Domenico Losurdo's Stalin: History and Critique of a Black Legend in spring 2025.
Underrated Emmanuel moment is when he fantasizes about a de-linked Third World "brutally re-proletarianizing" the labor aristocracy via international price-fixing
Žižek, the epitome of Western Marxism, the intellectual wing of imperialism wrapped into leftist rhetorics. Against racist Eurocentrism in support to racist Eurocentrism.
My single worst memory is understand how happy and carefree my family was. Why worst? Because I realised that once it was lost together with socialism.
If you fled communism & now live in a western country, drop your worst memory of what it was like living under a Communist regime.⬇️
I'll start: Standing in line in the winter outside for 2-3 hours for a chance to buy basics like butter, sugar, eggs.
We want to remember these
One can disagree with Iran on many points but the fact is that the little organised and armed antiimperialist resistance that exists in the world, wouldn't have been possible without it.

One thing is for sure. Whenever you need a left-wing apology of Western chauvinism and social-imperialism, Jacobin is there with the worst possible take.
Levica, a recently formed leftist party in North Macedonia, has veered right toward ethnic chauvinism after a contentious takeover by one of the party's first MPs.
@JayTharappel
There is no reason to be confrontational. If you have faith in European masses that's fine. I don't because I've seen, for instance, in Spain that workers openly chose to build war ships for Saudi Arabia (that would be employed to kill Yemenis) so they do not lose their jobs.
Xhemajl caught into the complexities of the randomness of Global Apartheid divisions, when all he wants is to be one step closer to the Global North but has to be careful whom in the Global South he's going to spit on.

population that provides the basis for their core lifestyle. Of course, they would deny any privilege obtained by the structural position of their society in the global core-periphery hierarchy and call for unity under _THEIR_ lead... everyone else is a liberal and revisionist...
@ShoahUkraine
It prides me to say I am a grandchild of a Yugoslav partisan. But it also puts me to shame that our parents. the children of partisans, are those that destroyed all their parents fought for.
In technical terms, the split within the anti-imperialist movement could be explained by how the hierarchy of the world is organised. Most of the people think in bi-modal terms: imperialist and oppressed or dependent countries. This sometimes leads to a vulgar oversimplification:
@JayTharappel
I would disagree for the following reason: imperial privilege is based on the amount of surplus that core countries are able to drain from the periphery (in this example France from Burkina Faso). The protests in EU in the past were all about more equal distribution of those
The practices that the civilised EU reserved only for illegal immigrants (i.e. non-citizens) are now crawling into general population. The burden of production costs known as informalisation is becoming more generalised and whereas in the past it served to support the middle
@BalkanComrade
Yugonostalgia is double edged sword. Many of them do not really want socialism back and much less fight (and die) for it like their grandparents did. They just want petty luxuries they had. In Serbia, a number of those that celebrate Yugoslav antifascism were liberals
What is going on with the Niger situation right now.
Niger has suspended all diplomatic ties with France, the United States, Togo and Nigeria and is withdrawing its ambassadors.

In the imperialist world Lumumba made a great sin: he dared challenge imperialism and bring prosperity to his people. The imperialism will collapse when Africa unites and liberates itself
@gpeyrol16
While I was living there, well before the SMO, I would (very) often hear Czechs qualify Ukrainians as: "They are not humans, they are animals". All this love for Ukrainians now strike me as hypocritical, to say the least.
Lol, did you really think we’re gonna allow some First-Worldists

@Huck1995
It is a bit misleading. For example Serbia is marked as red but China has never been Serbia's main trading partner. It was EU, and USA was never a partner anyway.
Na današnji dan pre 70 godina rođen je beloruski predsednik Aleksandar Lukašenko. On je danas za brojne narode i države koji se nalaze pod udarom imperijalizma jedan od simbola suvereniteta i otpora hegemoniji Zapada.
Tim povodom delimo njegovu izjavu:
Vučić standardno malo kme kme, malo moralisanje, malo demagogije, a najviše jeftinog spektakla. I Kalimero bi ga se postideo. Posle nek se šlihće Jevropi, a kad treba da se brani suverenitet onda mu jedino pomogne Titova zaostavština
OK, now that we have reached the first phase of arguing that Africa is a victim of intraimperialist conflict, the next phase is to have whitemansplaining of Marxism and national liberation to Africans.
It is not the communist past of DDR that turned East Germany into the arms of fascism. It was the policy of West Germany to turn the East into internal periphery.
The irony of outsourcing: one emigrates from the Third to the First World to get more money, and then your job emigrates back to where you came from to pay the salary you escaped from.
