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.

I quick scanned the internet for the for the jingoist's response to sailors jumping off of ships. Their responses are typically "weak generation" to 'lax standards' as compared to the past. Everyone in my extended family that returned from both world wars (I'm old) was irreparably damaged and failed to fully assimilate to civilian life. Looks like history rhymes and repeats after all. Reactionaries are always motivated by fear and a willingness to sacrifice the welfare of others for the sake of their own perceived security.

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.

If you subtract the retarded addition of 'benefits' to the guy on the left (in the original he's a "foreigner" and wouldn't necessarily be eligible for benefits in the US anyway), which is clearly overcompensation on the part of the person who edited it (also, as the least relevant nitpick, the original was clearly set, if loosely, in the UK or Australia, so adding an EBT card and Section 8 voucher is incoherent in addition to the fact that this stuff wouldn't be applicable to many migrant workers), then they're the same image. The individual who edited it, an idpol-brained retard, had to add in extra, irrelevant, allusions to American right-wing talking points because otherwise it would be obvious that they hadn't actually changed much of anything about the message. The original is arguing on class, but the person who edited it clearly did not even understand the message of the original and seems to have thought that it was about race rather than the futility and fraud of racism and xenophobic idpol; and, unsurprisingly, the editor also doesn't understand how meager and drained the American welfare system has been since the '90s for anyone who isn't already rich, and also, equally unsurprisingly, doesn't understand how the meager remaining assistance programs work at all (the single largest racial group that receives government assistance is still poor and unemployed white people, the only connection to race at all is that black people in the US are disproportionately poor and unemployed, which makes sense when you consider that they were targeted with systematic economic discrimination for centuries right up into living memory, even long after the end of the civil war when they were emancipated with zero property or wealth of their own - IE it's about poverty and unemployment, not skin color).

From AJ:
Libya’s National Oil Corporation warns it may halt operations at the country’s largest operating refinery if drone attacks continue.

Firefighters in Libya are battling a massive blaze at the Zawiya refinery following a drone attack, with the country’s national oil company warning it may declare a force majeure and shut down operations if attacks continue.

Libya’s Ambulance and Emergency Service said in a statement on Tuesday there were no “serious injuries” from the fire, with most patients treated for smoke inhalation.

Footage verified by Al Jazeera showed huge flames and thick black ‌smoke billowing over the facility, the largest operating refinery in Libya with a refining capacity of 120,000 barrels per day.

It is located about 40km (25 miles) west of the capital, Tripoli.

The National Oil Corporation (NOC) said in a statement on Facebook that the fire broke out on Monday evening at tank number 402-T, belonging to the Brega Oil Company.

It said the tank, which contained about 4.5 million litres (1.2 million gallons) of gasoline, was “directly targeted, resulting in a severe fire before the tank completely collapsed”.

Aren't tactical lasers actually extremely expensive and inefficient?
They're already deployed by "israel" after decades of US research, and they appear to have been completely useless not only against actual ballistic & cruise missiles, but even drone swarms. See >>>/777/1564
The US seemingly hasn't even bothered deploying tactical laser systems at its own bases.

>>498328
>The question is how to combat them, worded in a joking way. What don't you get?
I wasn't sure what you were asking, maybe in part because my angle is totally different - drone warfare is cheap and accessible, and incredibly difficult to combat, so when I think of a solution in relation to it, what I think of is a workers' movement which modifies agricultural drones for warfare and sabotage. The potential here is incredibly high and hasn't been met so far, and I would prefer a solution which involves maximum drone warfare striking at US tyranny while the iron is hot above anything else. There's more than enough money floating around in western socialist orgs to do it, but, unfortunately, none of them seem willing to take risks like that.

Drones can bypass advanced radars, escape or drain interceptor systems, resist or even (in the case of FPV) bypass jamming entirely, enable quick low-cost reconnaissance, and enable military forces with little money and few resources to suddenly be able to launch aerial attacks against tanks. Today they are becoming the air force of the poor, and it doesn't look like there will be an efficient counter which doesn't solely benefit the rich.

Dimitri Lascaris | The New 'Sunni NATO' Is Aimed At Iran
On August 7, 2026, in Mecca, the Western-backed autocrats of Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Türkiye announced the formation of the Mecca Join Defence Agreement.

Under their new agreement, the three states say they'll treat an attack upon one member as an attack upon all three members.

Some describe this pact as the new 'Sunni NATO'.

The three regimes claim that this pact is not aimed at any particular country, but as Dimitri Lascaris argues in this report, the pact is almost certainly aimed at Iran and not Israel.

Dimitri also discusses breaking news about Iran's new demands for reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

Hadn't even heard about this one. Stuff is happening so fast. I did hear that people were trying to jump off the USS Abraham Lincoln.

I've been meeting ex US military guys for years now and almost all of them have bad stuff to say about it. Vietnam, Panama, Iraq, US Navy - it's incredibly normal to privately hear stories from them which revolve around confusion over why they were ordered to do certain things (crimes), confusion over who, exactly, it served, and regret at having been a pawn in this bullshit. Defectors would be entirely welcome, and I hope that those who really believed in fighting for people and country will choose to defect instead of serving against their own people in the Epstein Regime. Those who realize the truth before they have been injured and discharged can be great heroes.
