Hello /leftypol/, we noticed an under-appreciation for the theory that upholds our political ideologies: As such, we have decided to revive the reading sticky! This thread will be dedicated to the sharing, discussing, and general banter about various leftist thinkers, theories, and political outlooks.

But, other than that, we believe there are other important reads that must be addressed, especially, for beginners and those just now getting into leftism.

Don't forget to check out >>>/edu/ for more reading and discussion!

This thread will detail some of the changes made to the site in the past year, as well as our plans for the future.

New i2p Address
As requested by several users, and in accordance with our general ethos of encouraging online anonymity, leftychan now has an i2p address which can be found here:
http://leftychmxz3wczbd4add4atspbqevzrtwf2sjobm3waqosy2dbua.b32.i2p or http://leftychan.i2p/

Moderation Changes
* New spam filter - Thanks to the hard work of our dev and admin Zer0-, leftychan now has an effective countermeasure against the automatic bot spam that plagues alt-chans. Dubbed as the 'spam noticer', the implementation of this system has led to a dramatic fall in malicious advertisement threads being posted to the site.
* New mods & dev - In order to better cover european and asian timezones, two more mods have been voted onto the team. These are sindikat, who has previous moderation experience, and jon, who is also acting as a dev and has made many valuable contributions in this capacity.
* Removal of Zul - In line with the rule that if a mod is inactive for over 15 weeks their status as a mod is called into question, Zul was voted off the mod team.

Basically, Caballo was refusing to follow his own rules and constantly stepping out of line so there was an attempt to create some democratic methodology by Comatoast, Zero, and Watermelon with the supprt of some other users, but, they had a backdoor in Krates which had been inactive for like a year at that point.

Can't believe that's you, what a twist.

One Year of Genocide

Continued from >>484995

Updates since the start of the last thread:
The (largely civilian) Palestinian death toll has now passed 61,000. Excess deaths have been estimated by The Lancet to plausibly be upwards of 186,000.

In early January 2025, Israel agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza and a prisoner exchange. Despite all of the killing, Hamas's military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, appears to have largely replenished its numbers, and threw parades celebrating the exchange. The ceasefire is on terms Hamas had already agreed to in May 2024.

Following Hezbollah strikes on Tel Aviv, a ceasefire in Lebanon was agreed to on November 27th. Israel proceeded to violate this ceasefire more than 600 times, and has refused to leave the country at the agreed-upon 60 day deadline, prompting unarmed civilians to stage protests and drive them out of parts of south Lebanon.

Lebanese Army leader Joseph Aoun was elected president of Lebanon.

Syrian president Bashar al-Assad was overthrown by US-backed al-Qaeda operatives. Israel proceeded to steal more land from Syria and launched a massive bombing campaign on Syria and Syria's arsenal without any resistance.

Fires continue to blaze near Jerusalem: Reports

Weeklong wildfires continue to burn across Israel, including near Jerusalem, as 155 firefighting teams work to contain the flames, reports The Times of Israel.

The effort comes after Israeli PM Netanyahu’s warning yesterday that the country is facing a “national emergency”, with fires threatening to reach the city of Jerusalem.

Israel’s fire chief Eyal Caspi described the blazes as the largest in a decade.

On Thursday morning, Israel’s Fire and Rescue Service said it had “not gained control” of the outbreak, according to The Times of Israel.

The European countries are set to dispatch eight firefighting planes to Israel today to support its emergency efforts, The Times of Israel reports.

Houthis says they targeted ‘vital and military’ sites in Tel Aviv

Houthis said in addition to “vital and military” sites in Tel Aviv, the group also carried out a military operation targeting a US aircraft carrier called Vinson in the Arabian Sea.

The operation was conducted with “a number of drones”, the group said.

There has been no immediate comment from Israel on the purported firings.

The Houthis have been carrying out attacks in what they say is a show of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, promising to keep up their strikes until Israel ends its war.

The US, Israel’s top ally, has responded with a campaign of aerial bombings against Yemen that have killed many people across the country. A recent strike hit a migrant detention centre in the Saada governorate, killing dozens.

What positions were the left in your view, completely wrong on and took positions that overwhelmingly harmed our political movement? I think now the left is in the wilderness after the Pink Tide collapse, the 2015-2020 left populist era, Occupy, it's time for some self-reflection.

>Immigration
The right were correct, go to anywhere in Europe and it's clear as day mass immigration is a fucking slowly unrolling disaster. "Great Replacement" honestly seems more true than not in many European cities that have frankly just turned into Ethnic enclaves. I've noticed as well the complete lack of integration, the hostility migrants have towards locals and frankly, the complete lack of giving a shit that minority have towards upholding any standards or quality of life. Go to any Ethnic enclave area and just see absolute fucking trash everywhere, run down buildings, third world tier wet markets etc. Another issue is when these groups seize power in areas, they tend to trend towards the far-right. They basically just use the left as useful idiots when they don't have power to capture councils and mayorships.
>Gender issues.
Enough said. Literally denied material and biological reality and tried to rip away the identity and safety of women and children for a group that frankly acts completely cultish. Slippery sloping, bad faith arguments non-stop, constant contradictiory positions from one sentence to the next, a complete rejection of common sense and materialism. All while never actually being able to answer a basic question "What is a woman/man?". Polling came in showing Gender Issues is one of the top reasons people are abandoning the left.
>Defund/BLM/Racial Idpol.
Just poorly thought out Identity Politics that mostly empowered establishment middle management grifters, refused to have real conversations about the behavior and state of certain minority groups, ended up pushing extremist Neoliberal solutions to issues (Defund/Land Back = Privatize). Spured a massive victim identity complex among minority groups, especially black people who are now are acting worse than ever with black youths just engaging in mass scale antisocial behavior justified with wild victim complex narcissism. Ethnic Victim Complex almost always end up as Ethno-Narcissism. It also is just a loser for the left. The Establishment have shown numerous times they instantly Post too long.

Well, that's the matter of translation and education. Hire a translator, organize free language courses for immigrants. Plus there are more immigrants worldwide who know English and the language of the country they live in on some basic level. While it may be difficult to communicate without a translator, it's not impossible. You can communicate ideas in simpler terms. You can hand leaflets to immigrants. Heck, you can use a translator app on your phone, there are many solutions.

Unions warn teachers, councils and NHS workers may go out on strike after government says it won't fund pay rises
The sectors’ bodies have recommended rises of about 4 per cent for teachers and 3 per cent for NHS staff to ministers, according to the Times. The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) responded, saying that any award must be fully funded. The National Education Union (NEU) and NASUWT teaching unions threatened strike action if schools do not get extra funding to pay for the salary increase for teachers.

Massive power outage in Spain and Portugal leaves thousands stranded and millions without light

BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — An unprecedented blackout brought much of Spain and Portugal to a standstill Monday, stranding thousands of train passengers and leaving millions of people without phone and internet coverage and access to cash from ATMs across the Iberian Peninsula.

The sudden crash of the power grid also left authorities searching for its cause. Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez addressed the nation and said that almost 11 hours after the nation ground to a halt, government experts were still trying to determine what happened.

“We have never had a complete collapse of the system,” Sánchez said, before detailing that at 12:33 p.m. on Monday Spain’s power grid lost 15 gigawatts, the equivalent of 60% of its national demand, in a matter of five seconds.

Spanish power distributor Red Eléctrica’s head of operations Eduardo Prieto said the event was “exceptional and extraordinary.”

Spain had recovered more than 92% of its power by 5 a.m. on Tuesday, according to Red Eléctrica, and the prime minister pledged that the entire country of 48 million would have lights back on by the end of the day.

It was the second serious European power outage in less than six weeks after a March 20 fire shut down Heathrow Airport in the U.K., and it came as authorities across Europe gird against sabotage backed by Russia.

The Portuguese National Cybersecurity Center in a statement said there was no sign the outage was due to a cyber attack. Teresa Ribera, European Commission executive vice president in charge of promoting clean energy, indicated the same to journalists in Brussels and called the power outage “one of the most serious episodes recorded in Europe in recent times.”

Groan. Sigh. Not this again.

Most electrical grids only have fly-wheel momentum of large steam-turbines from large thermal power-plants as energy buffer. And that's not a lot. Many Solar and wind-power parks were installed without batteries, and that's not particularly helpful for grid stability either. So without knowing what Spain's energy grid looks like, i'm guessing this is most likely a case of too many unfavorable conditions happening all at once. The solution probably is to install more buffer capacity.

If this was foul play, i wonder who's got motivation to fuck with Spain. I don't have any real guesses, the Spanish show a lot of solidarity with Palestinians, maybe Israel ? IDK

There's simple explanation, maybe they just over-taxed the system, and they have to expand it.

>>489127
I'm for nuclear plus renewables too, but we have to be realistic, renewable energy sources cause grid instability if they lack sufficient battery buffer. There's a lot of smart-copium, where we pretend that we don't have to install buffer capacity if only all the stuff was smart. We're not doing our selves a favor trying to cheat.

On March 9, 2025, US permanent resident and Columbia University graduate student was abducted without charge or trial and sent off to a shady Louisiana site on White House orders over his protests for Columbia to divest from Israel's war crimes.

From DropSite:

NEW YORK CITY—On Saturday night, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents entered a student residential building at Columbia University in uptown New York and detained Mahmoud Khalil, one of the lead negotiators on behalf of pro-Palestine protesters at 2024’s Gaza solidarity encampment. In a sweeping attack on the First Amendment, the Trump administration said this week it would begin revoking visas of “Hamas sympathizers,” specifically citing Columbia University students. The detention followed a two-day targeted online campaign against Khalil by pro-Israel groups and individuals, including Columbia’s high-profile pro-Israel professor, Shai Davidai.

Khalil, an Algerian citizen of Palestinian origin and an American green-card holder, was detained by DHS officials around half past eight as he was entering the Columbia residential building he lives in. He was returning from an iftar, breaking the day-long fast observed by many Muslims during the month of Ramadan.

Khalil’s wife, who is eight months pregnant, was with him at the time. A statement by the pro-Palestine group Writers Against the War on Gaza (WAWOG) stated that he was “abducted and detained without the physical demonstration of a warrant or officially filed charges.”

Khalil was detained at a DHS facility in New Jersey, according to a database for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But when his wife went to try and visit him she was informed he was not there. "He is not at the ICE facility in New Jersey. I can confirm he is not there,” Khalil’s attorney Amy Greer told Drop Site. "At this time, we have an idea [where he is] but we cannot confirm that 100%.”

According to WAWOG, the DHS agents told Khalil that the U.S. Department of State had revoked his student visa. The group said this was “despite the fact that he has a green card, not a visa, and is a lawful permanent resident.”

In response to a request for comment from Drop Site, the DHS first stated, “You need to reach out to the White House.”

US judge orders pro-Palestine student be moved to Vermont

A US court has ordered immigration authorities to transfer Turkish student Rumeysa Ozturk to Vermont, where her legal petition to be released from detention could be reviewed while she is present in person.

Ozturk – a graduate student at Tufts University – was arrested by plain-clothed, masked immigration agents last month over her support for Palestinian rights.

A federal judge found that Ozturk has constitutional grounds to challenge her detention, dismissing the Trump administration’s argument that federal district courts cannot review its actions on immigration.

Ozturk was moved to Louisiana after her detention in what critics say is part of a government effort to keep detainees away from their supporters and lawyers – and in conservative-leaning legal districts.

“For the foregoing reasons, the Court concludes that this case will continue in this Court with Ms Ozturk physically present for the remainder of the proceedings,” US District Judge William Sessions said.

Mahmoud Khalil denied release for birth of son, says wife

Mahmoud Khalil, the pro-Palestinian activist who has been detained in the US pending his deportation, has missed the birth of his son after being refused temporary release to attend the birth, his wife has said.

Noor Abdalla said on Monday that she gave birth to the couple’s first child in New York without Khalil present, after US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) made the “purposeful decision” to make her family suffer.

“My son and I should not be navigating his first days on earth without Mahmoud,” Abdalla, a US citizen, said in a statement.

“ICE and the Trump administration have stolen these precious moments from our family in an attempt to silence Mahmoud’s support for Palestinian freedom.

“I will continue to fight every day for Mahmoud to come home to us,” Abdalla added. “I know when Mahmoud is freed, he will show our son how to be brave, thoughtful, and compassionate, just like his dad.”

Demographics are no more collectivist than biological species are, this is just a classification. A classification often done by collectivists themselves (nationalists, conservatives) to demonize these demographics.
>socialist economics (collectivism)
Capitalism is often more collectivist than socialism is (nationalism, conservatism, wage slavery, ochlocracy, etc.). It's possible to build socialism on individualist principles since the main things socialists object to are class society and (in the case of communists) money.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen meets with Kilmar Abrego Garcia as Trump fights to keep him in El Salvador
The Trump administration has said Abrego Garcia was mistakenly deported. El Salvador’s president said he will remain in custody “now that he’s been confirmed healthy.”

Sen. Chris Van Hollen confirmed Thursday night that he has met with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the man whom the Trump administration said it mistakenly deported to El Salvador in March.

"I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return," Van Hollen, D-Md., wrote on X.

Images of Van Hollen’s meeting with Abrego Garcia were first posted online by Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, who has rebuffed calls to return Abrego Garcia to the United States.

Bukele said on X after the meeting that Abrego Garcia will remain in El Salvador’s custody “now that he’s been confirmed healthy.”

President Donald Trump lashed out at Van Hollen Friday morning in a post on Truth Social, saying the Democratic senator "looked like a fool yesterday standing in El Salvador begging for attention."

At an Oval Office meeting with Trump on Monday, Bukele argued that he didn't "have the power to return him to the United States."

Today we received formal confirmation that US anti-terror legislation and immigration policies are a total sham.
Itamar Ben-Gvir was formerly a member of the Kach and Kahane Chai parties, proscribed terrorist organisations in the United States and even in Israel. In 2007 he was convicted, by an Israeli court, of supporting a terrorist organisation. The Israeli military previously refused to conscript him on account of his views and positions, at the time considered extremist even by Israeli standards. Ben-Gvir is also a close associate of Benzi Gopstein, who in addition to involvement in terrorism established Lehava, an extremist organisation that seeks to prevent marriage between Jews and others (the Zionist version of the anti-miscegnation movement).
What has changed is that such positions and activities have not only become mainstream in Israel and represented at the highest level of government, but have also become completely normalized in and by the United States.
Rather than being refused entry or shunned for his record, and for his consistent incitement to genocide and participation in genocidal policies and decisions since October 2023, Ben-Gvir is being welcomed in the United States as a conquering hero.
This despite the additional fact that the supremacist party Ben-Gvir leads, Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power), is the successor to the proscribed Kach and Kahane Hai terrorist organisation.
In sharp contrast to the above, students activists who campaign against Israel's genocidal policies, or so much as co-author an article in a student newspaper criticising Israeli policy, are snatched off the streets by plainclothes secret police, incarcerated indefinitely in the US prison system, and are on the receiving end of deportation proceedings.
Next time you hear US officials pontificating about anti-terrorism legislation and immigration/visa policies designed to keep radical extremists outside their country, don't forget to remind them they're a total sham.

If you are not posting on 4chan you are failing as a leftist in the most fundemental way possible. Right now there is a huge opportunity to use the market crash and consequential recession that is coming to turn a lot of dissolusioned right wingers over to our side. To the side of truth, reason and sanity. I post on /b/ at the very least when a thread comes up revolving around trump and go on pol daily. We have to be where they are. We cannot just keep sequestering ourselves off in our hug boxes all the time. You have to be posting on 4chan as well.

It's none of my fucking responsibility, tankie. And not like I hasn't been told that before but with something else in place of "posting on 4chan," I don't give a shit.

One of the most bizarre aspects of the left is to leave any mainstream hangouts and hide away in little, extremely gatekept echo-chambers that always slippery slope down more and more abusrd purity tests.
Like look at Sigmarxism. Why in fuck does that even exist? .orge is also now just a super gatekept hangout of Idpol leftists.
/pol/ is pretty much a lost cause (they just spam every leftist thread with gore and schizo ramblings killing discussion), but /his/ could easily become leftypol on 4chan, and /lit/ is where leftypol was born from.

How much do you agree with Peter Coffin's main thesis that "The left" these days basically does not functionally exist in any real materialist fashion, and what presents itself as the ""left"" is mostly a consumerist "fandom" not all that different from people who are Star Wars fans or Trekkies or 40k nerds etc and that much of the ""Left"" actually end up purpetuating Capitalism, Capitalist goals and the system, by just draping red over largely Neoliberal positions. He brings up how BLM funnelled billionare money to rich liberal NGOs and how "Land Back" movement is trademarked and run by a Real Estate agency who want to privatize public lands and National Parks.

Peter Coffin used to be ultra-radlib defending le sex workerinos against "SWERFs" back in the day.

He also was on the Steve Harvey show where he kicked himself in the balls

Many radlibs are SWERFs tbh. If radlibs think men are rapists then why should they defend sex work?
