“Wokeness” is a campaign by the global classical liberal pette bourgeois, mainly orchestrated by Russia, and American and British classical liberals. The social reaction appears to be in response to multiculturalism with a particularly outright rejection of LGBT (lgb T <- !! ) culture instilled by neoliberalism. It’s an extension of their economic interests, however they confuse this popularization of the LGBT by neoliberal big bourgeoisie with LGBT itself. Unsurprisingly they do not study history. Why this is particularly dangerous is the relative success neoliberalism has had via LGBT virtue signalling, making the LGBT a comfortable scapegoat for the classical liberal pette bourgeois (the pette bourgeois in general being the historic base for fascism)

If you click on the “>spoiler” I provided context and a link

I wonder if Brian learned anything from this colossal betrayal of trust

Context:

→ “International con-man Brian Becker, another leader in the American anti-war movement, was a part of Muhammad Ali’s visit. His account emphasizes how much the visit was “a threat” to the US government and proved how “negotiations were clearly available as a means to prevent war.” Just because parts of the US government ‘denounced the trip’ does not prove anything at all.

This point is evidenced by a 1995 US Navy paper titled Persian Gulf Hostages: A Case Study in Terrorism, Diplomacy, and Strategy which details the United States hostage policy at the time. It had to maintain the facade of non-negotiation to “be tough on terrorists” while engaging in under the table diplomacy to release said hostages. The paper also details that while the US and UK publicly maintained rhetoric that they would bomb Iraq despite the presence of hostages, this was an empty threat. In essence, the United States needed the hostages released while also saving face. The reality is that these anti-war activists did the work of the US government by taking hard power away from the Iraqi government. This is regardless of whether they were acting on behalf of the US government (although, evidence indicates they likely were). Joseph Wilson notes in the same interview that:

“We were successful in getting one or two hostages out every time, and we would try to load up hostages onto every American who came out. It didn’t make any difference to us. The more, the merrier. If we could get 10 out with [boxer] Muhammad Ali, if they promised us 10 we’d go for 12.”

In December, Saddam Hussein let the remaining British and Americans leave Kuwait. We Are The Mighty magazine (affiliated with the US military) praises Muhammad Ali for “freeing the hostages” and notes that he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his actions.

Muhammad Ali (center) and the remaining 15 American hostages leaving Iraq on December 2nd, 1990.

Saddam Hussein gave up the hostages, his insurance against American invasion, based on lies. In January 1991, only six weeks after releasing the American hostages, under the guise of the United Nations Security Council an American-led coalition would begin a horrific bombing campaign and invasion of Iraq.”

We do as we’ve always done, and because it is our interests we represent, not the bourgeois’.

Get some sleep comrade, we all get this way some times

Study and play to your strengths. If you’re someone people lean on for help, help them understand the real causes of their misery. If you’re someone who is good at math, perhaps create propaganda which demonstrates the math of capitalism and socialism. If you’re someone who is popular perhaps educate your peers. Etc…

You are young and likely still requiring essential education and to develop experience. The job of the youth is always learn and socialize no matter what form society takes. Simply apply Marxism to this paradigm 👍

Which community is this? Are communities allowed sovereign control over their content or does this fall onto the shoulders of the devs since it is in the primary Lemmy instance?

Interesting…I wonder how the devs will respond to this situation when it unfolds

“As Marxists we must oppose everything the west approves of and approve of everything the west opposes”?

TIL Marxism is when contrarianism

“There is no flagship instance. The developers actively push sopuli.xyz and beehaw.org instead of lemmy.ml for multiple reasons.”

Lib is salty 😝

Perhaps they may come here and learn about and socialize with others who hold mutual views which the liberal faux left exclude (revolution, Russia, pragmatic material progress as opposed to performative optics and left aesthetics, etc…)

On the face, but you have to look at the history between “Taiwan” and China to understand their true purpose and thus intentions.

Thanks

Love the FBI one

Slogans

CIA: “Get in the -white- blacked out van, we have -candy- drugs”

DEA: “Where the cartels go to learn how to smuggle drugs!”

NED: “We love freedom and democracy” (snorts things which legitimize the concept of freedom in their minds, shoots democracy in the face)

Speaking of snorting things which create grandiose delusions…

Zelensky: “The victory is coming…just like the dragons in Game of Thrones, the victory is on it’s way…but I just need more money…for weapons…white powdery weapons of mass delusion…I mean destruction!”

CPUSA: “We’re definitely not reactionary opportunists in bed with the democrats…btw don’t forget to vote for the democrats!”

NATO: “We’re a “defensive organization”…if you obliterate the entire definition of defense and replace it with a picture of a monkey scratching his ballsack”

DPP: “WE ARE REAL CHINA!!..HEY! WHY IS NO ONE LOOKING AT ME?! …WHAT?! FUCK UKRAINE, LOOK AT ME!!! I AM ALL OF CHINA!!!”

Democrats: “Have you heard about this thing that sucks? Let me tell you how I’m not going to do anything about it. Actually, I’ll stop you if you try to do anything about it too…also fuck the republicans, they’re everyone bad from us to Putin to Satan except for when we’re talking about Putin then he is still Putin but also a republican/every republican and sometimes also the left who we try to make our base but could really give a shit less about because they aren’t bourgeois and those are the only people we even care to try and persuade with any real material concession…we just lie to the prols, then smack them on the noses like a bunch of stupid animals. Big dumb and stupi…wait is this thing still on?..Shit! Um…um…RUSSIA DID IT!!! Russia did it and I will gaslight the ever-living fuck out of you until you either believe it or there’s so much bullshit going on in the social strata that no one can organize an actual response to my bullshit. Yay, tyranny! Er- I mean dEmOcRaCy!!1!”

Republicans: “…What the democrats said/did but also fuck minorities. Guns and Jesus and stuff…”

Elon/Trump: “Let me show you why you can trust me” (sells a pile of bullshit then proceeds to fuck everyone over)

Gates: “This is why I’m NOT a weird anti-social sociopath” (proceeds to be a weird sociopath but in a social manner) “Welcome to my humble abode…whoops, mind the landmines! Have a seat on my couch made from refugee skins, you might feel a pinch, that’s just Cortana taking a DNA sample”

I like this. I’m going to do something like this.

Net is their new one, org got hacked

Christopher Helali, he’s a high-ranking member of PCUSA. When they attempted to bring politics to the masses they ran him for congress in 2020 I believe and the mainstream media tried this tactic on him. Suddenly anarchistic adventurists and imperialist soldiers who worked with him in the past (he “served” in the US in northern Syria) came out of the woodwork to call him everything from an asshole to a rapist when he wanted to platform Marxist politics in the US.

I wasn’t aware FinBol’s had screenshots. Do you happen to have any links? FinBol’s case doesn’t match the same pattern as the other 2 as there were no group of “insiders” with him, I simply threw him in there because he too is a leftist who was accused of sexual-based crimes and as from what I understood he was innocent.

From what I can tell it’s the same trick the state used on Redneck Revolt - a bunch of insiders accuse the leadership of sexual-based offenses, nothing is proven but it stokes enough controversy that the party implodes, and these “whistleblowers” lead a walk out to start a new party that never goes anywhere and really just exists to be a thorn in the side of the original party.

A few years back the state tried this tactic on them when they had “other comrades” accuse Comrade Helali of sexual-based offenses. Comrade FinBol has also received such accusations. Seeing a pattern here?

I don’t believe these accusations personally. The state has used that play far too many times in recent years. I would also not associate with this council of Bolsheviks either. As usual, this is my opinion, one should do their own research.

My thoughts? There’s not enough of it. Also that this type of media is new so it will take years for it to be finely tuned. The results from consuming proletarian media should be:

• increased class consciousness
• increased understanding of Marxist political theory
• reduced apathy
• increased organizing via it’s consumers

Lastly, organizations responsible for this content have a class responsibility to maintain their class membership. As commodities become popular under capitalism, companies which produce it grow and as they do so their class membership changes from proletarian to labor aristocrat or even bourgeoisie. Marxist economic organizing of these organizations are required to keep them “true to their word and goals” so to speak.
