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.

New Roulette Board
>>>/777/
After some discussion, we decided on /k/ as the new roulette board theme, replacing /CHAD/. Archived threads from previous roulette cycles can still be viewed here >>>/roulette_archive/
Any suggestions for future roulette board rotations are welcome.

The Hormuz Letter - BREAKING: Pakistan has rejected Saudi Arabia's request to join the fight against Yemen's Houthis under the Mecca Defense Treaty, with Islamabad arguing the pact "doesn't cover a pre-existing condition" such as the Yemen war, applies only to wars that began after it was signed, and only to state actors.

Pakistan's Foreign Ministry said "there is no such thing under discussion right now" when asked how Islamabad would meet its obligations under the accord signed with Turkey and Saudi Arabia, adding there are no plans to expand the alliance. Turkey, the third signatory, has not moved either.

Saudi Arabia has now been refused by Trump twice and by Pakistan under the pact it signed for exactly this, with the Houthis holding Bab el-Mandeb and the East-West pipeline shut.

Israel has been bombing Lebanon effectively extending it's ethnic cleansing into the country.

It's shitty to say this but did they not see this coming? They've been right there watching gaza get flattened, why didn't they go into debt and beg Iran, China and Russia for hardware to defend themselves? Why wasn't there a rifle every rooftop and an rpg on every balcony?

I'm actually serious, I don't believe such a small country couldn't fortify their defenses to the point where this could have been avoided.

I don't claim to understand the conflict between the Lebanese Armed Forces and Hezbollah, but if Communists in China could work with the Kuomintang to kick out Japanese fascists, they could have done more.

MintPress News - BREAKING: Israel Is Carrying Out Detonations In South Lebanon That Reportedly Triggered An Earthquake

The Israelis have detonated tunnel exits & entrances in the Ali al-Taher Hills area.

From the footage of the bombing, it appears as if the Israelis bombed a secondary tunnel in a low elevation area & some exits and entrances.

In other words, there's no evidence that the entire complex was actually destroyed, it is mainly a PR stunt to impress the Israeli public.

"israeli" media claims that this was the destruction of a sprawling tunnel network in Ali Al-Taher after a close-up clash with Hezbollah fighters inside, while MintPress says it was only entrances and exits destroyed. The Cradle has reported the "israeli" account (from Maariv), but I haven't seen anything from Hezbollah confirming anything about clashes there.

Hezbollah's behavior has been baffling. It's unclear why they would allow continued IOF advance and demolitions and occupation without any kind of largescale retaliation, especially after they were hitting the IOF very hard early this year.

Joseph Aoun came to Nabatieh under heavy military escort, putting on an extravagant display for the cameras while ensuring he never had to look a single Southern villager in the eye; it was a theatrical performance similar to when Nawaf Salam planted a Lebanese flag in Zawtar al-Gharbiya. This is how the Lebanese state thinks it will wash away the stain of this US-backed administration's complicity.

Updates and current status since the start of the last thread:
(largely civilian) Palestinian death toll has now passed 72,700. Excess deaths have been estimated by The Lancet to plausibly be upwards of 186,000.

Italian workers' unions launched a massive general strike in October over the shipping of weapons through Italian ports which are being used in Israel's genocide, and launched another strike in November.

In early January 2025, Israel agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza and a prisoner exchange. Israel unilaterally broke the ceasefire. In October 2025, another ceasefire and prisoner exchange was agreed upon in Gaza, and Israel has proceeded to kill over 900 Palestinians in Gaza since agreeing. Israel has also refused to allow the agreed-upon amount of aid into Gaza.

Israel attacked Iran utilizing a large number of assets embedded in Iran, killing multiple scientists and high ranking Iranian military officials, as well as targeting schools, hospitals, oil assets, and a TV station. Around one thousand Iranians were killed in Israel's strikes on civilian targets like residential buildings. Iran retaliated with a series of waves of missile and drone attacks which hit multiple Israeli military targets including IDF HQ, Mossad HQ, as well as an Israeli oil field. After an Iranian strike on Unit 8200, the number of online Zionist apologists conspicuously reduced for a while. The Israeli government, embarrassed by the damage to Tel Aviv, heavily censored footage and reporting of Iranian strikes on Israel, resulting in the Israeli police arresting journalists and citizens for filming sites of impact, while rich Israelis fled by boat due to the closure of Ben-Gurion airport. Iran began a crackdown on Israeli terror cells, finding and closing multiple Mossad-linked covert drone factories, as well as reportedly arresting groups involved in sabotage, and multiple individuals reportedly linked to German & Indian spy agencies.

Renewed US/Israeli attacks on Iran led to the destruction of multiple US bases in west Asia and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

The US mercenary front called the GHF has reportedly disbanded.

Palestinian Unions: Global Call for Worker Action Against Genocide this November

The Palestinian labor movement reiterates its solidarity with workers across the world resisting all forms of oppression and calls for global action to end complicity in Israel's ongoing genocide and apartheid from Friday, November 20th leading up to the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People on Sunday, November 29th 2026.

This coming November, we the undersigned Palestinian trade unions and federations urgently renew our call to unions around the world to:

   Uphold and defend the inalienable rights of the Indigenous people of Palestine as stipulated in international law, particularly the right of our refugees to return home and receive reparations, and
   Escalate BDS pressure to end all state, corporate and institutional complicity in Israel's illegal occupation, apartheid and genocide.

While approaching the third anniversary of the beginning of Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza and the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, and in light of Israel's accelerating ethnic cleansing, annexation, settler violence and pogroms in the West Bank, and depraved violent repression of our prisoners, we remind ourselves that an injury to one is an injury to all. Israel's livestreamed genocide, coupled with the wars and threats of aggression by its imperialist partners in Washington, is leading to the collapse of respect for international law, human rights and workers' rights, threatening humanity at large, not just Palestinians.

Today, the Palestinian struggle for justice is at the heart of the battle against a world order of "might makes right" that is being imposed by the U.S-Israel genocidal axis and enabled by colonial powers. As Israel's wars of aggression against the peoples of the region expand from Lebanon to Syria and from Yemen to Iran, and as the US threatens the peoples of Cuba, Greenland, Venezuela, Oman, among others, it is clear that hardly anyone is safe from this descent to the abyss.

The Israel-US axis is waging its war for Greater Israel without any consideration for the global recession (maybe even depression) it is potentially creating and its impacts globally. This includes the exacerbation of the cost of living crisis, austerity measures, the housing crisis, food insecurity, among others. Military budgets are swelling at the cost Post too long.

Peak liberal-epsteinism. I apologize "schizoposters", you were right.

Keeping this fight confined to chan culture is a mistake. These individuals need to be ousted and publicly shamed in the broader leftist ecosystem. I'm certain there are plenty of socialists, communists, and anarchists who would be horrified to know this kind of stuff is allowed to take root in spaces meant for anti-capitalist discussion.

My objections to loli/shota are not because it's CSAM (it clearly isn't). And although a moral objection is both valid and sufficient, the real reason why it's bad is two: the people who produce it do so with the intent of sexualizing minors, and the people who consume are low autism score retards with no impulse control.

Null talks about his time as staff on 8chan. Back then his position was "it's weird, but it's not illegal, and we should allow it because it's speech". He changed his position because the people who are into that shit were also into posting actual CSAM, and they would play dumb and claim 8chan was censoring them.

The people who consume this shit are antisocial (as Wvoblly show us) and thus a drag on every community that they participate in. They are not deep thinkers who liberated themselves from the chains of morality, they are rats who keep pushing the button that shocks them just to cure their boredom; "hedonistic" might be morally charged, but it's what best describes them, as they are people completely enslaved by their urges. Spiritually they are those obese people on motorized scooters buying ice cream at Walmart. There's nothing illegal about consuming ice cream, and yet the damages of doing so are made clear to anyone with eyes.

Ireland has gone to historically extreme resources-draining lengths to secure Trump's visit:

Approximately 10,000 police members, a huge cavalcade from the airport to his destinations, snipers, armed guards, helicopters, and armoured vehicles deployed wherever he moves in the country.

Streets and parks closed, unprecedented and frequent checkpoints, and traffic jams in the capital.

This is all to protect someone who mass murdered children, wiped out entire families, and waged illegal wars on innocent people. Someone who had a love fest with Epstein.

The world's a sphere, can't be done. Even ignoring the complications of geography, sphere's will produce at least 2 major centers of power. Power projection diminishes with distance to the center and if you live on the surface on a sphere, you get 2 optimal spots for a center of power. If you add in geography you probably get between 5 to 7.

this is the standard realist position, the dominant position
id argue that the US is the global state, though this may be changing
often we call "authoritarianism" or "dictatorships" are actually forms of anarchy, a lawless system of laws where disorder becomes a tool of control
what they call the "rules-based international order" might in practice be a reflection of that

Was thinking about this the other day - whoever came up with this phrase had to be laughing about it, right?
I mean, it's just very obvious that they were just coming up with some bullshit for western politicians to say instead of "international law" since international law is actually written down and people can just read it and see that they're all breaking it. There was no attempt to make the replacement roll off the tongue, just this clumsy, long-winded neologism which was dutifully repeated without hesitation by the entire western political & media class anyway.
