  • I can start a bit: workers.org is affiliated with the Workers World Party

    And for the suggested German ones: “junge Welt” is ranging from far left social democracy to classic ML.

    demvolkedienen.org seems to be some kind of Maoist (no surprise with that name)

    Indymedia is open to everyone so every part of leftism is represented

    taz is social democratic/left liberalism

    neues Deutschland is left wing social democrats

    I’d argue that it is fine to include the social democratic sites. If you’re aware of their position you can still get the necessary information out of their articles and they usually have a higher budget than far left ones.

    Also I can recommend to read a serious bourgeois newspaper (not pure propaganda rags like the Sun) to every comrade. The bourgeoisie isn’t stupid so they have papers that tell the truth on many things. Their analysis and “solutions” are obviously different but the information is still valuable. Also it’s good to know how the bourgeoisie judges the situation. Know your enemy.



  • To pay my 5€ into the Phrasenschwein/overused phrase piggy:

    “There is no ethical consumption under capitalism”

    As Marxists we’re not opposed to the individual bourgeois and landlord on a personal emotional basis but we oppose the bourgeois class and its system on the basis of class struggle and from the perspective that only the proletariat can abolish capitalism.

    So it’s not a question of who’s “a real Worker” or who lives an ascetic life but what you’re doing and who you’re supporting.

    Marx, Engels, Lenin and other great theorists of Marxism were born into wealthy/non-working class families. It’s only natural to a point since it’s easier to develop theory if you’re not working in a factory the whole day.

    Try to utilize the extra time to organize/read theory etc.
