  • There are many people speaking against russophobia and warmongering, we don’t need to post the ones who also speak against “the gays”.

    When writing the effort post above I skimmed over that RATWM article again, and this stood out to me: “considering the people most impacted by US imperialism and imperialist war have been organizing against it long before these Mises people came along, why haven’t I seen most of these white Latte Leftists engaged in organizing with us? I mean, Black, queer, trans, disabled, Global South, African people will certainly all die should there be a nuclear war”

    There are better voices to lift out of obscurity than Joti’s.


  • CPGB-ML are right deviationists so I’ll keep reporting them for breaking the rule “no right deviationists”. Joti is a prominent “socially conservative” figure on the British “left”, posting an interview with her is no different to posting an interview with Hinkle.

    From MoreTankieChapo to GenZedong to Lemmygrad there is a cycle of nazbols / patsocs / whatever you wanna call them swarming the space looking to normalise their ideas, getting pushed back, and quieting down for a bit until the next cycle, and I think this is why there’s a rule specifically disallowing this content.

    I’m not sure why you want to report Al Jazeera, there is no rule against posting from mainstream media.




  • FYI I reported this post:

    Rule 5: No right-deviationists. CPGB-ML is “socially conservative” and Joti herself is a Caleb Maupin collaborator (she went on his show to spew transphobic hatred).

    (Edit) CPGB-ML expels members for “propagation of LGBT ideology”:

    Congress therefore resolves that the propagation of identity politics, including LGBT ideology, being reactionary and anti-working class and a harmful distraction and diversion from the class struggle of the proletariat for its social emancipation, is incompatible with membership of the party, rendering those involved in its promotion liable to expulsion.

    Examples of their reactionary rherotic:

    LGBT ideology wants more than equal rights

    But, to return to the question of the demands of the self-appointed LGBT activists. Unlike ordinary people who happen to be gay or transgender, they are not happy with simply being allowed to live their lives in peace and without discrimination; it is not just a question of men and women wanting to be accepted even though they’re different.

    For the so-called activists, it is a question of going far further than that, to the point of absurdity. Transgender activists want us, for instance, to encourage little boys and little girls who prefer the lifestyle that society offers to people of the opposite sex to the one that accords to their own sex to actually physically mutilate themselves in order to achieve the appearance of a person of the other sex.

    The reactionary nightmare of ‘gender fluidity’

    Are ‘sex’ and ‘gender’ synonyms? Well they are synonyms, but a certain group of academics in the seventies in the United States decided that they weren’t synonyms. They were going to use ‘gender’ in their own way; they were going to use ‘gender’ to mean the social construct of behaviour surrounding what was expected of the biological differentiation among human beings (men and women).

    But biological differentiation between male and female is a real thing. It doesn’t just exist in humanity, it exists in many species throughout the natural world. Sexual reproduction is a natural biological process that has persisted in nature due to the diversity it engenders; it is a phenomenon encountered in the natural world.

    Why deny the material reality of gender?

    Why did it become a fashion to say there’s no such thing a male and female?

    Who is pushing this ideology that there is no such thing as gender? That there is no such thing as sex? That it’s not real?

    There is even a movement termed ‘ableism’ or ‘trans-ableism’. There exist people who say: “I look as if I’ve got two arms and two legs, but actually in reality, I feel like I was born disabled.”

    https://thecommunists.org/2019/03/23/news/the-reactionary-nightmare-of-gender-fluidity/

    ‘Transgender rights’ are bourgeois ideology. The whole issue confounds reality. It is pure idealism because the reality is that we cannot choose our identity at will. It is an illusion, a mistake and a crime to teach people to think that they can choose like this, under capitalism.

    https://thecommunists.org/2018/12/07/news/the-only-thing-that-unites-us-is-class/

    They also voiced their opinion on JK Rowling:

    The author’s brave stance in defence of reality must be defended, and her hysterical detractors exposed as the reactionary bullies they are.

    And here’s them openly promoting US patsocs:

    Working-class antiwar rage sends US woke mafia into a head fit

    Unlike other self-identifying (and self-neutering) antiwar movements (essentially middle-class ‘left’ rackets in hock to the Democratic party in the USA or the Labour party in Britain), the Rage movement might actually pose a real threat to the establishment.

    If you missed the whole RATWM thing, here’s an explainer: https://www.blackagendareport.com/why-rage-against-war-machine-rally-antiwarsowhite

    And lastly here’s the YT video I referenced in the report: youtu.be/5v7bWFFLzUY?t=1666

    Last time I looked into CPGB-ML was like 5 years ago, but I can see since then Caleb released plenty of interviews with both Joti and Harpal Brar (CPGB-ML chairman) so the collaboration is very official and not a singular lapse of judgement on Joti’s part as some people tried arguing back then.

  • Ah the Korean War, also sometimes called “the Forgotten War” by pundits and journos who’s fucking job it is to not allow shit like this to be “forgotten”.

    They won’t let you forget Tiananmen square for a minute, but the war with the highest percentage of civilan casualties in history, with over 10 million deaths which is higher proportion that Soviet losses in WW2, the bombing campaign so genocidal that by the US army general admission there was simply nothing left to bomb when they were done… Oopsie, we forgot!
