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

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!

Since there have been new doc releases and recent new exposures of notorious child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and his activities with Israeli intelligence, Donald Trump, Ehud Barak, (former) Prince Andrew, Peter Thiel, and various ops, corporate states, and world governments, and with new information now coming very fast, I thought I'd create a new thread just to collect more of this new stuff in one place, as well as to potentially add previously released info which might be getting memory holed.

BREAKING: Leon Botstein, the embattled president of Bard College, has resigned – one day after an investigation by a firm commissioned by the college revealed his longtime ties to sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, the Miami Herald has learned. His resignation letter, which makes no reference to Epstein, was sent out to students this afternoon by the college's PR department.

WilmerHale, the firm that conducted the probe, said that while it found no evidence Dr. Bard did anything illegal*, his relationship with Epstein showed poor leadership.

In his letter, Botstein said he was retiring after 51 years, but had elected to wait until after the Epstein probe was complete. However, earlier this month, he had been telling colleagues that he would be cleared, and expressed no intention of leaving – or retiring.

"I previously informed the Board of Trustees that in view of the completion of the endowment campaign, my 51 years of service as president, and my upcoming eightieth birthday, it has been my intention to retire from the presidency and focus my energy as faculty member, teacher, and musician. I will continue with the Bard Music Festival, SummerScape, and the Bard Conservatory and will live at Finberg House," Botstein wrote in his letter.

*The probe found that Botstein made over 25 visits to Epstein's townhouse, made a two-day visit to his island and made a flight to the island with a woman – while also inviting Epstein to various Bard events where he was accompanied by multiple women "who have since been identified as victims of Epstein."

A data center in Fayetteville, Georgia, drained approximately 30 million gallons of water through two industrial-scale hookups that the local utility did not know existed. One connection had been installed without the utility's knowledge, and the other was not linked to any account and therefore was not being billed. The discovery only came after residents complained about low water pressure.
The campus is still under construction with completion projected three to five years out. A separate incident in Tucson last week saw Project Blue's contractor caught trucking municipal water out of a city that had explicitly voted against the project, with Tucson revoking the temporary meter and demanding two acre-feet of water credits to make the city whole.

I'm an anarchist actually. It's just that your entire logic is retarded and based on copium, you automatically assume that Portman "wanted" to star in these roles instead of wanting money or to be an actress and being taken advantage of. You're on a leftist board and yet you don't even take economic coersion into account, and your dismissive and rude response is really telling. The fact that you equate criticizing sexual exploitation of children to fascism shows how much relation to anti-fascism you actually have (zero).

>That assumes MeToo was some proletarian revolt
Just because something isn't a "proletarian revolt" doesn't mean it doesn't address real proletarian grievances. Both the French revolution and feminism addressed real issues the proletariat faced but then got neutered by the bourgeoisie. And the reverse is true: just because it's the proletariat who's revolting doesn't mean they're revolting for valid reasons (they can express their national grievances instead of their class interests for example). And neither am I defending ochlocratic SJW movements like #MeToo. Just because #MeToo targetted Weinstein doesn't mean he didn't deserve it, and Epstein is hated by right-wingers too so it's not just "They're hated by #MeToo so they're based."

Iran monitoring treatment of citizens in UAE
On Iran-UAE relations, spokesperson Baghaei says Tehran is aware that its citizens were “harassed” in the Emirates over the past week.

“We have handed down clear instructions to our embassies and consulates in Dubai, and here we are closely monitoring the situation in the UAE. Any action required within our power, we wouldn’t falter or hesitate in order to serve our people,” he said.

When asked about US sanctions on an Iraqi minister for his alleged connection with Iran, Baghaei said it was “an act of bullying”.

“Each and every country should act responsibly and with good governance. They should pay respect to other countries’ sovereignty. It is the right of the Iraqi people and officials to take whatever position is in their interests,” he said.

“Demanding an end to the war, lifting the blockade and piracy, and ⁠releasing Iranian assets that have ⁠been unjustly frozen in banks due to US pressure,” he ⁠said.

Updates and current status since the start of the last thread:
(largely civilian) Palestinian death toll has now passed 70,000. 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 300 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 of Afghan nationals involved in sabotage, and multiple individuals reportedly linked to German & Indian spy agencies.

The US launched airstrikes against multiple Iranian nuclear energy sites, followed by Iran retaliating with a strike on a US airbase in Qatar. A ceasefire between Israel and Iran has been in place since shortly after this, with expectations being that Israel intends to recouperate and try again with more direct US invoPost too long.

I keep finding myself wanting to post MOATS episodes, but they typically cover so much ground that I don't know where to post them. So here's a thread for discussion of Mother Of All Talk Shows episodes, George Galloway, and the Workers' Party in general.

Today's episode attached - Galloway covers Venezuela, Yemeni retaliations hitting "Israeli" airports, speculates that Iran may respond to "Israeli" threats (in light of previous attacks) with a strike, and more!

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE | Day 68 | TACO - does Trump Always Chicken Out? | Hormuz hopes | Lebanon blitz
🚨 Trump talks tough. Then comes the retreat.

Day 68 and the pattern is becoming impossible to ignore.

Trump threatens fire and fury, then looks for the exit. As hopes rise around Hormuz, Israel intensifies its Lebanon blitz and the region remains one miscalculation away from catastrophe. Is this strategy, theatre, or another case of Trump always chickening out?

Tonight George Galloway asks the question at the centre of the crisis. Can Washington still dictate events, or is the empire bluffing its way through another failed war?

RENT ASUNDER | Starmer trial | Poll verdict | Rebel call | Gaza flotilla two freed | MOATS LIVE
Britain’s political establishment is shaking — and tonight on The Mother of All Talkshows, George Galloway goes live as pressure mounts on Keir Starmer from every direction.

From the Old Bailey to Gaza, from Labour infighting to the geopolitical earthquake unfolding between Russia, NATO and the Middle East, tonight’s MOATS asks whether the entire political order is being torn apart — rent asunder.

⚖️ Keir Starmer is under fire.
As criticism grows over Labour’s direction, free speech, foreign policy and internal purges, George examines the political “trial” now engulfing the Prime Minister. Is a rebellion brewing inside Labour? Has Starmer alienated the movement that put him in power?

🎙 Joining George:

Crispin Flintoff — presenter of The Crispin Flintoff Show and former organiser of the Stop Starmer campaign. A furious debate on Labour, censorship, the Old Bailey controversy and the widening split in British politics.

🌍 Then, live analysis of the global picture:

Chay Bowes — political analyst and commentator, joins George to discuss Russia’s Victory Day, Ukraine, NATO escalation, Trump’s positioning, and the shifting balance of power between Washington, Moscow and Beijing.
