No, I read about them but didn’t try going through the actual files myself.

It’s pretty meaningless and unserious though. By “globalist” they probably meant neoliberal globalization which is basically the current stage of imperialism.

but you’re fine with “satanic”?

omg i understand nothing of this 😭 is this the official Ukraine govt account celebrating the death of Khamenei? that would track but why is there a picture of some sports team? whos the circled guy?

Yeah but is that defecting or just relocating?

Defect where? If you defected to the USSR as a nazi war criminal you’d have a bad time. I hope if any IDF butchers defect to Iran they get what they deserve.

His supporters are still handing out flyers claiming he was framed by the state for being a Marxist, I got one at the last national demo for Palestine in London.

I’m just answering a poster saying anarchism is a lot like democratic centralism. Some parts are similar (delegation and recall), others are not at all (vanguard party, dotp)

I am an ML.

I never said I’m an anarchist I’m just explaining what anarchism is and it’s not what a lot of people here think it is.

how do you expect to protect your revolution with no vanguard or DoTP?

This is literally what I wrote in my first comment:

My disagreement with anarchism is different: I think only a state with a strong coercive apparatus can survive sustained imperial pressure and capitalist encirclement.

Definitely!

Early Soviets maybe, before war communism, for like less than a year… There was a reason anarchists tried to assassinate Lenin as a counterrevolutionary.

The “delegation and recall” part of it? Totally! The “vanguard party” and “DotP” parts? Not so much.

You can call a federation of communes a “state” if you want. Anarchists are not against this kind of “state”. As long as power flows bottom-up by delegation and recall.

I’m not an anarchist, but a lot of people here are misrepresenting anarchism. Anarchists don’t reject coordination or planning, only hierarchical state control. Large infrastructure would be built by federated councils, unions, and communes, with common plans and technical bodies coordinated by accountable, recallable delegates. Central coordination without a state hierarchy is entirely possible.

My disagreement with anarchism is different: I think only a state with a strong coercive apparatus can survive sustained imperial pressure and capitalist encirclement.

It’s hilarious to me because it’s exactly the kind of “political” joke you would hear in the Soviet Union, where ideological proclamations of party leaders are put in absurd or sexual contexts.

Probably the most famous one:

Dzerzhinsky and Trotsky are arguing: which is better, a wife or a mistress?

Dzerzhinsky says: “A mistress.”

Trotsky says: “A wife.”

They can’t agree, so they ask Lenin.

Lenin replies:

“Both! Tell your wife you’re with your mistress, tell your mistress you’re with your wife… and meanwhile, go up to the attic and study, study, and study again.”

(“Study, study, and study again” was the most famous Lenin quote in the USSR, the placard with those words would hang in every single classroom of every school).

That’s not fair to Leon

When Russia took over Crimea, Ukraine cut water supply to the peninsula, depriving civilian population of water for drinking and agriculture (which is a human rights violation) and causing a humanitarian crisis.

So Russia built the longest bridge in Europe to provide water and other essential supplies.

On the first day of the invasion Russian forces reopened the water flow into Crimea, but on the third day of the Ukrainian counteroffensive the Kakhovka Dam was destroyed, causing massive flood in Kherson region and again water shortage and agriculture crisis in Crimea, so the bridge remains vital infrastructure.

Since the beginning of the war Ukraine is trying to blow it up, when they do, Western outlets report it with absolute fucking glee:

Pressure on Putin grows as his ‘jewel in the crown’ bridge to Crimea is blown up

Long threatened, the hated $4bn Russian symbol of Moscow’s occupation of Crimea – one that Russia had boasted was impossible to attack – had been blown up.

The symbolism of the moment – a day after Russian president Vladimir Putin’s 70th birthday and just over a week after he announced the illegal annexation of four more Ukrainian territories amid huge pomp in Moscow – was lost on nobody.

But it is not simply the fact this is Putin’s bridge that underlines the symbolism. The blast has real-term consequences too for Putin’s war, coming hard on the heels of a series of humiliating defeats on the eastern and southern fronts that has seen large-scale Russian retreats.
