This transatlantic grouping of the Fabians & their 'left' adjuncts & the DemParty/DSA & their many 'left' adjuncts are key to marketing imperialist reaction under guise of 'progress' in all fields, from NATO's mercs to the anti-feminist eugenicist lobby: Particularly on infantilized forms of media such as twitter, where 'the debate' can easily be reduced to a pantomime of guilt-by-false-association, tribal group-think, crude memetics & banal platitude.

Calling for an arbitrary #internationaldayofpeace in a world ravaged by imperialist war & exploitation is the imperialists call for the oppressed to renounce fighting back.

The blood-drenched British Foreign Office is responsible for much of the war in the world today, far from 'solutions for peace', they only seek 'solutions to increase imperialist domination' under guise of 'peace'. -

"A Historic Institution of the Transatlantic Left", yes indeed.

A historic institution of the MI6-CIA 'Left' wing of bourgeois power, ie: the DemParty & the Fabians.

"Tribune was founded by two wealthy Labour Party members, Sir Stafford Cripps and George Strauss. It was independent but usually supported the Labour Party..."

Nowt's changed.

Often perplexed by white individuals who generalize 'white people' as if they are the Godly exception among us, happens a lot in the 'intelligentsia', cos its much easier for them to denounce amorphous racial generalizations than their concrete petty-bourgeois class privilege. A class privilege that is no doubt afforded to mostly whites in the core, 'labour aristocracy' etc, but ofc not all by a long way, as the many white workers in prisons, on the streets, suffering extreme poverty, unemployment, destitution, etc, are testament to.

Russia brokers a halt to Syrian ops to liberate NATO-Turkey occupied Idlib, and NATO immediately respond with yet another heinous aggression on Syrian army sites in the north... 'israel' can't scratch its own arse without Yankee direction & support, ofc the US-NATO are behind the attack as they are with all others, they work in concert under US command not independently.

There isn't a Party on earth more loathsome than the rotten British Labour Party, precisely because they are such arrogant imposters. I hate them even more than the Tories, because the Tories could not survive without them. When workers start to see the whole of parliament & the capitalist State as their enemy, the rotten Labour Party steps in with its 'radical' reformist platitudes to give said parliament & State the appearance of 'new life', splitting & diverting revolutionary self-organisation.

Wow, three years of King Corbyn and what has changed? Nothing. Corbyn's councillors continue to impose austerity, social-cleansing, universal credit etc etc, while the King merely spouts parliamentary platitudes & tells us to wait for the next election...

These Labour Party sycophants are really such pathetic creatures, screaming plaudits for mere parliamentary platitude. Tories aren't 'failures', cos they dont intend to serve 'the people', they are successful capitalist robbers.

Getting quite bored of people pretending its somewhat shocking of US-NATO to be 'protecting Al Qaeda' in Syria, they created 'Al Qaeda' ffs, and have been using them as cannon fodder for 40+ years. The only thing that's shocking is the mass-ignorance of well-documented history. The general effect when this faux 'shock' is delivered en-masse is to bolster the false historical distinction between US-NATO & death-squads like 'Al Qaeda', but the latter simply wouldn't exist without the former.

So the puppet zionist colony of America & Britain says some foul things, and a certain American's immediate reaction is to demonize China being 'tainted' by economic relations with America & the zionist poodle. What is the motive beyond deflection & demonization of China? One can only assume their noble aim is to 'educate' western audiences in the Great Global Scheme, where all nations, even those referring to socialism, are neatly denounced as 'equal parts of the imperial pyramid', solely on account of economic relations.

Primark didn't keep you clothed, slaves in sweatshops did. Cheap western goods are largely the product of western-enforced slave labour in foreign countries. Its not just your mother's hard work, but also the hard work of the people who created your clothes, ie: the sweatshop slaves that primark exploits. Primark as a company did nothing for yours or any other working class family. -

Jez could put 100,000 more coppers on the streets, but crime will continue to rise for as long as those coppers serve the rich exploiters in power responsible for the rise in poverty. - In actual fact, under crisis-stricken capitalism, the more capitalist coppers Jez puts on the streets, then the more poverty-stricken workers will be arrested, sent to court & convicted for petty 'crimes', costing the public purse even more money.

Surrounded by parasites in the belly of the beast, nay, embedded with them, the downwardly mobile core petty-bourgeois takes refuge in pretending they're leading the struggle of others, only to mask their coddled impotence & wild vacillations. The petty-booj screeches "HOW HOW HOW!? REVOLUTION IMPOSSIBLE!!" precisely because they are detached from anything resembling the revolutionary classes, precisely because their lives consist of empty vacillation, ill-discipline, disillusionment & despair.

Notice 'these people' never ask themselves: "how will we overthrow the US ruling class?" Which should be their primary concern being US 'workers', instead they invoke the much harsher difficulties faced by oppressed nations only in order to render themselves impotent. Here's how American 'communists' can help Palestinians defeat 'israel': by organising the American proletariat and struggling for State power in the US, in case that wasn't obvious for people supposedly familiar with Marxian methods.

Oh great, Losurdo's book on Stalin is being translated by a student called "PornDVD666", and a publishing house that calls itself "Left", a liberal abstraction that Losurdo himself had no fondness for. - 1) You being a student = inexperience, immaturity, i would prefer an adult with some Marxist credentials translate such an important book.

2) Your crude username only further proves this.

3) Verso is also a shitheap, but at least they're run by adults.

Comrades & friends, we urge people exposing the war on Yemen to primarily identify the British-American leaders of that heinous war, and not simply point at their Saud puppets. None of the latter's crimes are possible without the former. Western workers must know that it is 'their own' rulers slaughtering Yemeni children, there is no use in hiding the master behind the apprentice, rest assured this only enables the master to commit more atrocities by-proxy.

Now this is gonna upset the super-radical ultralefts, but despite the obvious 'commie troop' psyops & propaganda, Communists will have to recruit members & former members of the armed forces if they ever wish to wage a successful revolution in their own countries. All the ultralefts achieve in this sense is to mask their impotence & practical feebleness, their shying away from a real problem with florid language & petulant outbursts of righteous denunciation. Read Lenin, or any Bolshevik for that matter, on fraternising with the enemy.

Never really looked into the publication before, but 'monthly review' is evidently nothing more than an intellectual talking shop which seemingly rose to prominenece during the CIA-sponsored 'New Left' era. "Monthly Review remained true to an independent orientation throughout its history and never aligned with any specific revolutionary movement or political organization." - Non-partisan 'Marxists' eh...

China has many problems, but socialism is no synonym for Utopia. Problems will persist in any socialist country for as long as imperialism reigns. The point for western Marxists is not to piously pore over China in alleged attempts to solve their problems, but to solve your own. Why, for eg, are there literally hundreds of western 'left' intellectuals, some even calling themselves 'Marxists', being paid a handsome fortune to sit in the US-UK poring over China's problems? To simply provide anti-China to China's western enemies & competitors.

"Racism is not racism!" - @jeremycorbyn

"The European colonisation of Palestine, the extermination & enslavery of the indigenous population (aka Zionism) is not racist." - @jeremycorbyn

Not surprised to learn that ignorant westerners think it strange of Chinese people to be somewhat offended by their leader being compared to a yellow cartoon animal. Today's orientalism requires subtler forms of 'othering' and dehumanisation than the crude 'yellow peril/fu manchu caricatures of the 20th century. A sorry shame people who claim to be anti-racists don't apply it in this case.

Spineless @jeremycorbyn cows to the imperialists & retracts his comparison of the genocidal Nazi seige on Leningrad with the genocidal Zionist seige on Palestine, when they are exactly the same in political content. news.sky.com/story/jeremy-c… The Nazis aimed to exterminate & enslave Slavic peoples of the USSR, just as the Zionist's policies seek to exterminate & enslave the Palestinians. They are both genocidal expressions of European colonialism pure & simple.
