the "national Bolsheviks" were a fringe political party in Russia that only existed for a few years in the 1990s.

There's a formerly popular theory amongst some political Christian circles that Palestinians are actually the real Jews and that the Israeli Jews were fakes.

And I'm leaning more on that side.
I honestly believe that Palestine may be the real Israel and it's destruction will trigger the end times.

I mean. Look at how many people are protesting against Zionism.

>>489058
Yea I know. I used to browse there in the last two years of that boards existence. And people didn't change.

>There's a formerly popular theory amongst some political Christian circles that Palestinians are actually the real Jews and that the Israeli Jews were fakes.
It's not really much disputed that Palestinian Christians & Muslims are mostly descended from Jews and Samaritans who converted to Christianity and Islam, which is true even without the "who are the real Israelites?" prophetic/religious speculation.

What about it?

>Go look up who funded Hitlers political party and mercenary gangs.
By the way, I really wish lefties would bring up more often the fact that the Azov Battalion was literally funded by a Ukrainian-Israeli billionaire. It brings to bear so many amazing points about the nature of fascism, Zionism, and ruling class interests.

no dude, seriously? im literally just telling you about the dilemma that zizek is raising, i never gave an argument in favor of one conclusion or another, why are you just assuming what i believe
please god im begging you people to just engage with zizek here instead of treating this like some kind of breadtuber debate ffs

When I'm general secretary of the United Socialist States of America we will have a secret program that is basically a staged repeat of covid. Creat a panic, rush out a vaccine, don't publish trial data, make up bullshit public health protocols, stage an illegal transfer of wealth.

Then question, strip of title, and re-educate anyone going along with this. Oh you're a doctor and you were okay giving this vaccine? Lose your license. Oh you agreed to give this vaccine to your kids? Maybe you need to take a class.

You're a community leader and you didn't organize against this? Step down.

In fact a socialst government should practice changing leadership by force: every so often people will be required to arm themselves and storm the parliament and depose of the previous government. If they're willing to step downw it will all be staged. If not the people will have practiced for this.

Neoprogressivism is 21st century progressivism, third- and fourth-wave feminism is mainstream feminist theory from the 90s onward (radfems, radlibs).

>>488914
Third/fourth wave feminism actually started in the 1980s

>>488916
>Third/fourth wave feminism actually started in the 1980s
Yeah, my bad ig.

>>488914
i think it would be more accurate to talk it about a degenerated reprisal of the american left in the form of the millenial left, haunted by the failure and collapse of the left at the turn of the century
we saw the same militant identitarianism and youth fetishization of the new left plus its battles with old labour (think eugene debs) reemerging in sanders, but in a weirdly detached hipster way
its a cheap borrowing from history (a.k.a. a LARP) that doesnt match the same conditions which is probably why it comes off as so hysterical

Third wave feminism is way better than the abomination that was second wave.

You can literally use the same reasoning to say that all that shit is contained to /lgbt/ and to keep it off /leftypol/ and other boards.

I'm honestly not sure what gay people need a board for but I don't see the harm.

>>488796
I agree with you. I am already of the opinion that we should join liberals in those issues in which we all agree, such as being anti-Trump. But one could say that leftists should simply start their own demonstrations, and not participate in liberal protests while not opposing them either. I am asking a question of strategy, not of principle.

>>488795
I reject the basic premises.

Firstly, the implication of signs like in that image is foremost that Trump is "Russian," with the "Communist" imagery mostly being used as a dumb "gotcha!" and appeal to nationalism. That doesn't mean that no liberals believe it earnestly, but even of those it's not the majority. So basically you have a minority who hold up "Trump = Soviet Communist = bad!" signs and then a minority of those people who earnestly believe, on an intellectual level, that Trump is a Communist. It's a minority of a minority of liberals. I don't deny that that minority of a minority are stupid in that specific way and are holding stupid signs, but every time a guy on an image board is like "look at this one guy in a group of 10,000 people, is this everybody?" it seems odd.

secondly,
>What I ask is this: do you think it is fruitful for American leftists to join liberals in anti-Trump demonstrations? Or should we instead have demonstrations of our own? Could liberal protests become an opportunity for educating liberals, or would attending merely make them more secure in their current ideology?
I reject the premise of all three of these questions.
It is liberals, by which I mean the DNC specifically, who have sought to co-opt the existing protest movement. Under Biden there were massive protests, under Trump they continued. Even these recent "Hands Off!" protests, which have been something the liberal establishment have heavily aimed to direct and co-opt (to avoid the Palestinian genocide and crackdown on anti-Zionism which is a project of both the DNC & GOP) have seen participation, and in some cases continued local dominance, by the anti-genocide demonstrators who people like Pelosi seek to drown out or infiltrate. The left has not stopped protesting. The momentum is something the DNC has lost and is cynically moving to steal. It is not ours to reach out to liberals or to segregate ourselves from opposition to Zionist tyranny and repression by the American state, it is ours to continue to build the movement which the liberal voters, by increasing discomfort at their material conditions under a psychotic American failed state, are now compelled to meet on the streets.

Where protests are concerned, we literally only have to keep doing what we'Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Are you american though?

>>488805
Yeah.

MAGA's working class base is more class consciousness and Communist than 99% of ""leftists"" out there. They associate Trump with Communism for good reason (his working class base which wants popular sovereignty, not Trump himself).

Anon, it doesn't matter what you think. I know I'm 100% correct but I do not expect stupid gaijins to understand me since this is practically impossible because of the infowar going on. Cassandra truth and so on.

>the current Russian president made his initial political career unfucking the Russian economy by switching it from neo-liberal shock-doctrine capitalism to state capitalism
No, he switched it into paternalistic conservatism with a corrupt welfare state that is quickly getting replaced by insurance companies and private business.

>>488863
I dunno anon, the Russian war economy is really looking an awful lot like state capitalism again. Just like the state capitalism of the German Empire.

>>488864
>I dunno anon, the Russian war economy is really looking an awful lot like state capitalism again.
Mixed economy is not "state capitalism." Russia has a very strong private sector. Sure, there are welfare and the public sector but they're so fucked and underfunded that many people would rather pay money to private businesses. Many public buildings that aren't in major cities like Moscow or Saint-Petersburg or whatever weren't renovated in decades, their paint literally wears off. But living in a major city is expensive as fuck so not that different from the US. People are forced to go into a giant dept just to own an apartment (again, not that different from the US).

>>488865 (me)
I mean, I'm not saying it's Mordor or whatever. It's not LDPR. But still, Russia has paternalistic conservatism, poor public sector and expensive housing. It is what it is.

‘Cop City’ legal case could cast spotlight on US police foundations’ activities
In the Atlanta case, a judge is considering 12 hours of testimony, related case law and evidence in a lawsuit that concerns whether records such as board meeting minutes from the Atlanta Police Foundation (APF) are subject to the state’s open records law. If they are, they must be released to plaintiffs: a local digital non-profit news outlet and a Chicago-based research organization.

The Social Security Administration Is Gutting Regional Staff and Shifting All Public Communications to X
“We are no longer planning to issue press releases or those dear colleague letters to inform the media and public about programmatic and service changes,” said SSA regional commissioner Linda Kerr-Davis in a meeting with managers earlier this week. “Instead, the agency will be using X to communicate to the press and the public … so this will become our communication mechanism.”

ORIGINALLY RELEASED Apr 20, 2019
What is to be Done? is a classic work on the role and organisation of the revolutionary party in the communist movement. Lenin criticises economism, revisionism and spontaneity, and argues persuasively for a centralised and professional vanguard of the proletariat. On this episode of Red Menace Alyson and Breht explain and reflect on the text, and then extract the core lessons for revolutionaries today.

(HOUDINI) Update on Malhoud Khalil: They Bet We'll Choose Fear. Let’s Prove Them Wrong.
This man is a permanent resident. Green card holder. His wife's a US citizen. By every measure, he's American. Doesn't matter if he wasn't born here—he's as American as I am, as American as anyone whose family's been here five generations. And they're deporting him. Not for crime, not for violence—for protesting. The US government's excuse? That letting him stay would "weaken efforts to combat antisemitism worldwide." Translation: The regime's ability to do imperialism depends on silencing criticism of Israel. They’re using "antisemitism" as a shield for genocide, for propping up a colonial outpost. And if saying that out loud puts me in legal danger, if it means I could get black-vanned next—then we’ve already lost. Let's be crystal fucking clear: Criticizing Israel isn't antisemitism. Jewish Voices for Peace—actual Jewish anti-Zionists—are defending Khalil. If they’re "antisemitic," then the word means nothing. (Side note: HOUDINI Magazine is named after a Jewish person, so miss me with that shit from the jump.) This is about ideas. Khalil's being deported for his beliefs, same as Italian anarchists during the 1st Red Scare. They’re making up excuses to disappear him because he spoke out. And if they can do it to him, they can do it to you. To me. To anyone.
