'Chomsky is the Poison of the Left'

Was Infrared right about Chomsky now that the Epstein connection got revealed?

>>491561
No. classic Leftypol, Infrared, Stupidpol, leftychan are basically the same sort of userbase.
.org is mostly 20 year old zoomers from r/thedeprogram and r/Greenandpleasant with a mod team who are a bunch of unhinged BPDs.

The thread about Abrahamic religions being compared to Nazism got gulag'd https://leftychan.net/gulag/ but here is my reply:



Xi Jinping's take is the following (from NYT article https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/11/16/world/asia/china-xinjiang-documents.html
, use addon like Bypass Paywalls Clean if you can't read):

In several surprising passages, given the crackdown that followed, Mr. Xi also told officials to not discriminate against Uighurs and to respect their right to worship. He warned against overreacting to natural friction between Uighurs and Han Chinese, the nation’s dominant ethnic group, and rejected proposals to try to eliminate Islam entirely in China.

“In light of separatist and terrorist forces under the banner of Islam, some people have argued that Islam should be restricted or even eradicated,” he said during the Beijing conference. He called that view “biased, even wrong.”



Furthermore, the Infrared stance seems to be not to disrespect people's religions because it is alienating or something. Infrared's Haz said something like socialism is not just about being right but to correctly articulate their class position.

OP do you have any idea how far ahead China is materially? VERY roughly how advanced a society is can be measured by it's energy usage.

They have 200x the naval manufacturing capacity. They have literally better chemistry and more powerful explosives. They produce half of the steel produced on this planet while the US produces 5%.

You mentioned Taiwan and the navy, but Taiwan is just off the coast of China, they can just sit there and send clouds of drones and whatever the hell else at Taiwan if they wanted to.

>This is why solidarity is so important. Supporting comrades in other countries isn't about kindness. It ensures you will not be attacked by brothers turned against you.
>Meanwhile, the global bourgeoisie has shown extreme amounts of solidarity amongst themselves, to great effectiveness. They are very unified, especially compared to the 1910s, unlike us.

I completely agree with this.
The situation is such that it's down to every single bit of solidarity that can be had.

I agree with the rest, too. The US would lose in a direct war with China - and a direct war against China, Russia, the DPRK, Iran, and whichever BRICS-aligned global south countries decided to join would completely destroy the US's grip on global power and end the existence of its vassal states. With this in mind, the Chinese strategy only seems to leave a huge opening for the US to consolidate global hegemony to such an extent that there are no trading partners who would disregard US sanctions or disobey US marching orders.

The US's strategy relies on mercenaries, proxies, and large scale economic warfare, so this approach which China takes, which seems to allow for individual countries more aligned with China to be attacked and destroyed one by one, seems really ill-advised to say that least. The US's reliance on mercenaries, and its willingness to spread itself thin and take on unreasonable debts… are all vulnerabilities, but not ones that China appears to even be that eager to exploit. Frankly, looking at the US today, it's not impossible to get the impression that the mercenaries took over running the empire some time ago, so I can't even rule out that the US would still be a threat if something like that occurred.

>a nuclear power would lose in a war with another nuclear power
Gee, ya think? All of humanity would. Anyone seriously entertaining the notion of a conventional war between nuclear states is a myopic fool.

It's just astrology but hating the evil narcissists. People eat it up. Half the time every disorder has a comorbidity.

DSM is so unscientific it actually can't be used to justify research funding lol.
The entire thing is hyper-political as well, the DSM is basically just a board of a handful of psychs who basically deem what is and isn't a disorder based on their personal feels and what way the political winds are blowing, hence why Gender Dysphoria is no longer considered a "disorder" while other Dysphoria's are, Psychopathy isn't treated as a disorder or even trait and DID is totally real despite no the vast majority of the field believing it to be at most a dissociative symptom of BPD.

>Now that Maduro is captured
Allegedly.

>is it likely that Cuba will be invaded?
Nah, they're going for Iran next.

>Will there be a civil war in Venezuela later on?
If by later on you mean immediately?
Maybe.

>This fits up with Israel's attack on Sinwar and the fall of Damascus.
The former took over a year, the latter took 13 years.

>Is warfare going to be shorter?
That doesn't seem to be the pattern outside of this. Iraq seemed to indicate that in the '00s, but then Afghanistan kept going for over a decade.

I talked to a friend this past year that said they potentially have to go back to Germany to do mandatory military service or lose their German citizenship.

What I think all this amounts to is that Europe is preparing for WWIII with Russia.

Do you believe it'll happen in a few years? Personally I believe Putin might resign after the war ends. Does mandatory military service apply to migrants too?

>>493122
I don't live in Europe so I don't have the answers.

It sure feels like there is a global military buildup however.

>>493122
>Do you believe it'll happen in a few years?
Not that anon, but personally I think that "it" will happen this year. Except I think that Iran will be the main target, and a lot of the European re-militarization will actually be (subtly or unsubtly) funneled into that front even before it's certain what course of action Russia will take.

Anon you've been proven right and it hasn't been a day

That's way too many data centers. Having 10 in a small city would already be weird.

I don't think even the average computer enthusiast really appreciates how fast a modern computer is. A top of the line personal computer would be considered a supercomputer in the 90's, like the ones used for rendering CGI for Jurassic Park, or performing nuclear simulations.

And they need that many of them? To brute force solutions to problems that probably aren't socially applicable, and only work 95% of the time at best?

Clearly there is something wrong here, and there is an incredible waste of resources.

Like after all that, can they even make a robot that will do my dishes? Even with a dish washing machine? I have yet to see that. They couldn't get self-driving cars to work after decades, so I think we're finally seeing this AI shit peak.

And you know what, I'm glad, because at first this AI stuff seemed like it would really might get to human levels of intelligence. I'm happy it's really just a toy.

And maybe I should be happy in the short term that this is where they're putting surplus value - into making computer chips that turn electricity into heat, instead of more weapons and war or something worse.

Nerdeen Kiswani:
This is deeply disturbing and not enough people are talking about it.

Zohran Mamdani just went to the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s Ohel in Queens, venerating the founder of the racist, Zionist Chabad movement.

The Rebbe’s movement has a long history that should make anyone pause. In 1991 a car in his motorcade killed 7‑year-old Gavin Cato, a Black Caribbean child in Crown Heights. The first ambulance to arrive was Jewish Hatzalah, which took the Jewish driver and passengers before treating the child, who was killed by the motorcade. The Rebbe never apologized or took responsibility.

Fast forward to April 2025: Chabad invited far-right Israeli Minister Itamar Ben‑Gvir to their Brooklyn headquarters. Outside, a mob of Orthodox men chanted “death to Arabs,” surrounded and chased a woman they thought was a protester, threatened her with rape, kicked her, hurled cones and trash cans, and another Jewish supporter of Palestine was hospitalized with a bloody head wound. Hundreds followed her for blocks before police got her to safety.

Chabad-Lubavitch is actively cheering on and materially supporting the Israeli military. Branches have raised tens of thousands of dollars for the IDF, a Chabad charity in the U.K. was officially warned for buying military equipment for soldiers, and senior rabbis in Israel lobbied the government on war policies and settlements, framing military action as religiously mandated. Their “Moshiach” messaging and flags are everywhere — on Israeli tanks in Gaza and across NYC streets — signaling a messianic justification for this violence.

So Mamdani is venerating the leader of a sect that:
• is politically and rabidly pro-Israel,
• has tolerated violent, anti-Arab racism,
• never reckoned with a racist tragedy in its own motorcade,

As the far right grows, so should the all-people’s front – Communist Party USA


The few socialist legislators serving in Washington, D.C., and Albany, NY, who refuse all capitalist contributions are the exception — some capitalist funding goes to nearly every progressive legislator.

Communist candidates cannot accept money from billionaires and monopolies. But we can’t impose our position on every progressive and left-of-center liberal candidate. If we do, we will end up with only a few candidates to support. The task of halting the extreme right requires a much broader electoral front. How does our Party march side by side with anti–extreme-right elected officials from a capitalist party? Primarily through the mass movements, nearly all of which are involved in every election we have.

Our tactics must jibe with our strategy. What exactly do we mean by “tactics”? Lenin answered, “By the Party’s tactics we mean the Party’s political conduct, or the character, direction, and methods of its political activity” (Two Tactics). At the least, we must not be sectarian. Instead, we should be broad in our approach. We should not hammer on the shortcomings of elements of the all-people’s front. Many forces of the front do that already; there is no need for us to pile on. Communists, more than any other political force, must work to build up the coalitions involved.

This is true especially after primary elections are over and voters face the choice of a decent liberal candidate or an extreme rightist. Harsh criticism of a Democratic candidate, who will either defeat or lose to an extreme-right Republican, serves no positive purpose. Some on the left think they must cleanse their brains and souls by telling the masses how flawed the better candidate is. In an age of rampant misinformation, which hits people from many sides, this is an especially poor tactic. Nearly half of the population gets its news sometimes or often from social media (most likely Facebook) (Pew Research).

WTF did I say. Straight out the gate, Ziohran issues an Exec Order that appears to give Commish Tisch license to establish “no protest zones” including 60 ft perimeters around houses of worship during “non-religious activities” to protect freedom of speech (meaning settlement recruitment drives at synagogues), the exact proposal that Rabbi Schneier of Westhampton Beach was lobbying the transition team to impose lmfao. They’re basically going to proscribe protesting outside Isntreal related events held in synagogues, dress it up as combatting antisemitism, while also pantomiming enshrining free speech by creating designated corrals out of the way where people can hold their signs in a non-intrusive fashion, out of the sight of the aggrieved genocidaires, god forbid they be challenged or have their street view blotted out by angry people…

Incredible. Just as I predicted.

DSA has no leash on its candidates because it doesn't run them on their party ticket. Their condemnation and lobbying of their former darling AOC has done nothing to her. They just provide free canvassing for Democrats who hold their cards, that's it. That's all they are.

>Anyway, it's really the state propaganda machine and crackdowns which make garnering sympathy difficult.
Yeah, and they have the upper hand by being out in the open. It's very difficult to counter this stuff from the underground.

>revolutionaries have to operate underground unless they already have established military support
Isn't 99% of what an org should do, they can do above ground?
I don't see how you can do any sort of community work underground, like what the black panthers did with meals and healthcare.

Of course the panthers were met with force and assasinations - so it's either be safe but be underground or be out in the open and clash with the state. But directly resisting the state is going to come sooner or later, and what activities would you even do underground?

>>493060
The Black Panthers kept their militant and political wings essentially separate.

Community programs and services obviously have to be above ground - I mean, you could do them underground, but that would obviously be a pain in the ass unless you were already in open hot war with the state. I guess when I said "revolutionaries," I primarily meant militants, which was admittedly a confusing way to phrase what I meant since a revolutionary party's political wing is still composed of revolutionaries.

Although, actually, I kind of think that any western revolutionary group maybe should work on an underground political wing. Organizing masses of people in a community simply to do ordinary mutual aid stuff without detection is an extremely good idea.

Latvia, a disappearing nation
January 5, 2018

Since it joined the EU, the country has lost one-fifth of its population.

To be sure, economic migration is not the only reason for the country’s declining population. The small Baltic republic’s comparatively low birth rate and high mortality rate are also contributing factors.

“Borders are open, information about life in other EU states is available and everyone is doing it. So, off our young people go to England or Ireland or Germany” — Aleksandr Rube, journalist

https://europeannewsroom.com/latvia-completes-fence-on-border-with-russia-2/

Maybe Latvia can employ their remaining population as border guards.
