If its possible to have video streaming through the darknet, it should be possible to livestream as well. Especially if they are willing to tolerate a little latency.

Another possibility is the hidden service doesn't directly host the streams. There was a thread with a list of Facebook live.

Isn't it normal for discussions of news stories to mostly be around the dates the news stories took place?


Anyways, that's not the case for all of the events. A user made a thread on February 4th about receiving a pardon for jan6.

I think you guys are missing the larger point, which is that troons make up a statistically negligible portion of the population. The media, including social media, exposes you to them constantly because it's profitable to make people angry and beneficial to the bourgeois to keep people divided over culture-war issues, since they ultimately aren't affected by any of it. But if you put down your phone and take a look at the world around you, you'll notice a very interesting trend; you almost never run into actual troons in real life.

Discussing transgenderism as if it were a meaningful social issue, getting obsessed with the integrity of women's sports that you don't actually watch, freaking out over transgenders being pedophiles, is the equivalent of freaking out over pagan animal sacrifices. It's a non-issue that has been made a thing to distract from the class struggle.

the world works on looks. looks are important. we human will always fully think and associate people with lighter skin color as looking better, better to look at, and is more beautiful/pretty/handsome.
we all also associate lighter skin color with being more feminine for women consider feminine. we can never change this. not a single thing anyone do and say will ever change this. you can never change how people think like this. man or women everybody think like this.

now then have and obvious answer. for the sake of use call it the “Blond Path". we need to produce white people with blue eyes and green eyes and blond hair and ginger hair. the quota would be 10 times the world population including the world population of whites with natural color hair and eyes. To do this we ignore or erase things that are a hindrance such as marriage, monogamy, family unit, relationship, and romance. Production does not stop there, we also need to group ethnic whites together with the same ethnic whites (Ex: Scotts with Scotts, serbs with serbs, and etc). Although this one is of a different program. This program also require us to get rid of the same hindrance the former program have. Both program do not see heigh, body or looks. As long as your face are not horrendous you are good, so even if your not handsome and beautiful you will still be in the program.

As part of the Blond path and to prevent dehumanization and other such unwanted idea,we will educate people. Specifically we will tell them about that one zoning infrastructure real-estate thing (I forgot the name of it) that put black and brown people in place were the chemicals,paint ,water ,walls and environment in general are doing things to their head (mind and brain) and body. In general everybody need to be educated about racist laws and myth and other such things. Other then that we need to eliminate race science and race bias in science.

In short. The world need to have industry level production of ethnic whites and more importantly whites with blue eyes, green eyes, blond hair and red hair because the world work on looks. But we also educate people so they don’t believe in race science and race biased science.

we must advertise this to every rightoid, boomers, and whites.

I am speaking as a brown.

President Donald Trump on Monday ordered the National Guard in each state to create a quick-response force to quell protests and deter crime after using troops to assist with security during immigration protests in Los Angeles and patrol in Washington, D.C., as part of a crackdown on crime.

He said other cities, specifically Chicago, should be asking him for help.

“I think we should really let them have their city, let their city go to hell” and then they will ask us for help, Trump told reporters at the White House during a news conference announcing several executive orders.

“These people [troops and federal law enforcement], eventually, they’re going to have to be appreciated for what they are doing, and they’re going to have to be appreciated by the officials that are really happy when we go in because they’ve lost control of their place,” he said.

The executive order about the National Guard signed Monday calls on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to oversee “each state’s Army National Guard and Air National Guard are resourced, trained, organized and available to assist federal, state and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety and order whenever the circumstances necessitate, as appropriate under law.”

Each state should find an appropriate number of troops to be reasonably available for rapid mobilization and have the resources and training needed to serve nationwide, according to the order titled, “Additional Measures to Address the Crime Emergency in the District of Columbia.”

More than a week ago, Trump deployed 2,000 troops from the D.C. National Guard and six supporting states onto the streets of the nation’s capital to stop what he has referred to as an emergency crime wave. However, D.C. police data stated violent crime is down in the city by 26% compared with last year — which had the lowest levels of violent crimes in 30 years.

Since Guard troops have been on patrol in Washington, there have been no killings in the city, Trump said.

The minimum wage increases ($15 now campaigns etc) started way before Sanders and were almost entirely kickstarted on the group by orgs like Socialist Alternative Party and Working Families Party.

Pretty much nothing else Sanders wanted has come to fruition and minimum wage increases happen in many states without public pressure anyway. Hell, even George Bush raised the minimum wage.

Instead what we got was a two time primary loser, and a two time billionaire as president, exactly what he didn't want.

I attended a few Bernie campaign meetings and it was very depressing. Mostly super old Democrats pushing 50+ mulling about and doing nothing. They'd hire a college student wanting debt relief, who in turn would bring in a few more college students to do phone banking. The social atmosphere of the campaign was dismal and there was no excitement.

Immediately after Sanders would lose and election, my local Sanders campaign office became a de facto Clinton campaign office. The upper class phone bankers who came for a bit of student debt relief were then ordered to start making calls for Clinton.

Both campaigns basically funnelled people into Clinton and Harris' campaign, the latter of which was the most right-wing Democratic campaign I've seen since Gore. She punched left and down, ran ads against even the smallest competitive left-wing electoral organization, and promoted a bill that defined "affordable housing" as $400,000.

The only organizational remnant of his effort weren't intention. The DSA seems to have benefited the most, seeing a 16x increase in membership over years. Even a cursory look at the organization shows a highly dysfunctional group of former Tumblr users who have no idea why they are there or what they want. Because they aren't a party, they just bicker about who to endorse all day, and now most of their alliances in state legislative bodies and Congress or either gone or dying.

Lastly, the Socialist Parties that do run their own candidates ran into larger non-socialist parties and there's probably only like a few hundred people in actual socialist parties nowadays.

question. I've seen a bunch of "scandalous" rumors thrown at this party specifically by twitterite dramaratis, and to date none of them have proven to hold any water. It comes across as the typical "Sanders supporters are misogynist" or "Labour has an anti-semitism problem" tier nonsense.

>Normal people take one look at that and see cult vibes, not politics.
I've been talking to folks in the PSL and about the PSL for over a year straight, and I've never even heard the specific stuff you're talking about. The idea that "normal people" are even seeing these rumors is laughable, although I'm sure that the drama people would like everyone to see the rumors.

>That’s why PSL is capped below 3rd or 4th place in presidential elections
The primary problem for the PSL has nothing to do with internal party policy, and everything to do with the way media institutions in the US deliberately ignore or slander parties outside of the two party system, and the way in which the electoral system is purposefully rigged to shut them out.

For those who don't know. And I guess most don't know since this board is like 'lmao weed' gen 'zer former 4channers, America used to have a Socialist Party that won partisan elections on their own ballot line.

This included two Congressmen in the early 20th century.

The party eventually committed suicide for many different reasons, after a slow decline in success, and those committed to continuing to run candidates formed SPUSA or Socialist Party USA.

While those familiar with SPUSA today may consider it among a basket of small socialist parties, for decades, the media used "Socialist Party" interchangeably to refer to SPUSA exclusively, mostly for historical reasons.

Their electoral history since their refounding in the early 1970s is dismal. Since then, they haven't won a single partisan race. Each time they won a local seat, which hasn't been more than 12 times ever, their party name wasn't on the ballot cuz it was for some school board or some shit.

tl;dr NO ONE is electing socialists under a true socialist party banner and haven't since at least the 1970s.

It's a political failure, and the whole socialist label is clearly a curse.

I completely agree, in fact it is my tireless crusade to get people to stop using the braindead term "ranked choice voting" which easily conflates the two. An important poiint can be made which is reflected in the graph: Countries which use a combination of IRV and STV such as Ireland and Australia tend to have only a bit more overall party representation because their IRV bodies function to undermine the party-enriching aspects of their STV bodies.

>regional politics
Your observation is also true of Canada and UK, but the thing to understand is the trend actually still holds at a smaller geographic scope. While these countries have not yet degenerated to absolute two-party domination at a national level, if you look closer what actually occurs is there are typically still only two parties vying for power in a given discrete region.

>there are typically still only two parties vying for power in a given discrete region

no, and that's why it's not a law

In India, politics usually doesn’t follow the “only two parties vying for power” models. Elections in discrete regions are frequently multi-party races where three or more parties compete seriously.

For example, in Uttar Pradesh, the BJP, Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party, and Congress all contest elections, making it a four-cornered fight.

In West Bengal, the main battle is between Trinamool Congress, BJP, Congress, and the Left parties.

In Tamil Nadu, both DMK and AIADMK are strong, but Congress, BJP, and smaller regional parties also play key roles.

Because of these dynamics, India’s democracy is considered a multi-party system, directly contradicting the idea that only two parties dominate a given region and a very powerful argument against what is just some guy's theory.

Blocked from Bolivia’s election, ex-leader Morales not sure how to respond to threats of arrest

Bolivia’s charismatic, long-serving ex-President Evo Morales told The Associated Press on Saturday that he didn’t know what to do about threats by the right-wing presidential candidates to arrest him if they came to power.

From his stronghold in Bolivia’s tropics of Chapare, where he has been holed up for months under the protection of die-hard supporters, he repeated his call for voters to deface their ballots in Sunday’s high-stakes elections in defiance of the race from which he is barred due to a contentious constitutional court ruling.

“What are we going to do? Not even I know,” he said in response to questions about how he would respond if either of the right-wing front-runners, multimillionaire businessman Samuel Doria Medina and former president Jorge “Tuto” Quiroga, wins the presidential election and fulfills their threats to arrest him. “I am in the crosshairs of of the right-wing empire.”

Morales, 65, was charged last year with human trafficking and accused of impregnating a 15-year-old girl when he was president.

While he has not outright denied having sexual relations with the underage girl, he has described the charges as politically motivated. A judge issued the arrest order as he and his former finance minister, President Luis Arce, bickered over the control of their long-dominant Movement Toward Socialism Party.

As a result of their bitter power struggle, the party splintered. With the Bolivian economy undergoing its worst crisis in around four decades, the implosion of the MAS party has given the right-wing opposition its best shot at winning at the ballot box since Morales first came to power in 2006.

The Kent State massacre was a regular crime.

I seems I have read war account books of these types of torture accounts more of interrogation room stuff.

India’s opposition parties protest against a controversial electoral roll revision
India’s opposition accuses the Election Commission of India of rushing through a mammoth electoral roll revision in eastern Bihar state, saying the exercise could render vast numbers of citizens unable to vote. The revision of nearly 80 million voters involves strict documentation requirements from citizens, triggering concerns it could lead to the exclusion of vulnerable groups, especially those who are unable to produce the paperwork required to prove their citizenship.

Israeli Tourist Boom in Sri Lanka’s Arugam Bay Stirs Local Unease
The opposition political parties criticized the government’s alleged tilt toward Israel, pointing to visa-free entry for Israeli tourists as proof that the traditionally pro-Palestinian National People’s Power (NPP) has changed its stance. But the same opposition would likely hit the streets if firm action on Israeli tourists sparked a U.S. tariff snapback or a slump in arrivals. The government is squeezed between values (nonalignment, empathy for Palestinians) and vulnerabilities (dollars, debt, and jobs). In that gap, symbolism often beats substance and enforcement gets deferred.

Largest US socialist organisation passes resolution supporting Palestinian resistance
Sunday’s resolutions contained both political and practical commitments for DSA. Politically, the resolution supports al-Thawabit, or the Palestinian red lines, the unifying principles outlined by the Palestinian Liberation Organisation in 1977. These principles include the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine, the Palestinian right to resist and the right to self-determination. The resolutions also make publicly and consistently opposing the BDS movement, taking money from pro-Israel lobbying groups, and supporting the transfer of funds or weapons to Israel an expellable offence. Elected officials are expected to be held to similar standards by DSA.

Trump to deploy National Guard to D.C. and federalize city police
The news comes on what Trump is calling the "Liberation Day" of D.C., which he has said is "one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the world," despite violent crime trending down in the District for the second straight year. 800 National Guard members are being called to D.C., Trump said at a Monday press conference, adding that he may bring in the military "if needed." The D.C. Guard is the country's only National Guard unit reporting exclusively to the president.

Waste from agricultural plant poisoned US town’s water with Pfas, lawsuits allege
Perdue Farms acknowledged that its 300-acre Salisbury, Maryland, operation is polluting local waters, but the chemicals’ sources have not been confirmed. It appears the Pfas is in part also coming from some combination of sludge used as fertilizer and pesticides, attorneys for plaintiffs say.

Interview of Reem Hazan, Politburo member of the Communist Party of Israel, to Rizospastis: "Reactions within Israel are growing"
The weekend 9/10 August edition of “Rizospastis”, Organ of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), published an interview with Reema Hazan, member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of Israel (Maki) and head of its International Relations Section. Read below the interview translated into English: “Last night (Thursday) the Israeli cabinet approved the beginning of a full-scale occupation of the Gaza Strip. We warn of the continuation of ethnic cleansing, the war of extermination and the further destruction of Gaza,” Hazan says and continues: “This government, motivated by racial supremacy and messianic fanaticism, must stop. Even those in the Israeli leadership who hesitate to expand the war do so out of concern for their soldiers and their prisoners, not out of concern for committing war crimes against an entire people. Israelis must not accept the continuation of this war and this criminal government. The protests demanding an end to the war and the overthrow of this government must continue. Only with an agreement and a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces can the cessation of the extermination of the Palestinian people be ensured.

Ballard Partners Is the Lobbyist King of the Trump Era
The Securities and Exchange Commission, overseen by crypto millionaire Paul Atkins, just agreed to drop its lawsuit against the cryptocurrency exchange Ripple after Biden-era regulators sued the firm for alleged securities fraud. Ripple, which will still have to pay a $125 million fine, gave $4.9 million to Trump’s inauguration in January and paid nearly $800,000 to lobby the federal government in the first half of fiscal 2025. That included $260,000 spent lobbying on issues related to crypto regulation paid to DC’s newly crowned lobbying king, Ballard Partners. Ballard Partners was founded in 1998 by wealthy conservative donor Brian Ballard — a major MAGA fundraiser since Trump’s first cPost too long. Click here to view the full text.
