Not in particular, though it became jarring to hear everyone across the political spectrum in the West repeat debunked claims such as Russian bot activity dropping after Ukrainian attacks.

The West has grown comfortable blaming foreigners for its decay.

More accurately, she grifts about the DPRK in return for funding and donations.

“China is cracking down on corruption, but at what cost?”

It was indeed interesting to read. I recommend following it up with his Philosophical Investigations, which completely breaks off from the Tractatus.

Reddit has long been compromised by zionists and hasbara accounts. It is not a safe space for leftists.

Perhaps Alexander Bogdanov’s notion of Proletarian Culture can be of value here?

Only a few of his works were translated from Russian, but there are academic articles available online written about this:

James D. White (2013) Alexander Bogdanov’s Conception of Proletarian Culture, Revolutionary Russia, 26:1, 52-70, DOI: 10.1080/09546545.2013.806081.

Maja Saboleva (2021) The Culture as System, the System of Culture: Aleksandr Bogdanov on Proletarian Culture and Proletarian Art, Cultural Science Journal 13(1), 2021, DOI: 10.2478/csj-2021-0016.

And you people wonder why you get banned.

Refer to United States involvement in regime change.

religion is a tool of oppression used by the bourgeoisie and that multifaceted oppression is used on the daily to keep us from fighting the class war,

Yes, and that additionally it can and has been equally a revolutionary tool to mobilize the masses against oppression. And to shun it completely would be reductive.

I am aware. My replies, however, were addressed to you. I am simply moving the conversation towards a wider scope that doesn’t mystify religion and reduce it to something inherently bad or irrational.

These are not two distinct oppressions. Religion is part of the superstructure (i.e. the state, the laws, the culture, etc.) which is held up by the class struggle and the socioeconomic dynamics of power. Religion, like the state, is simply the tool and not the cause of oppression.

In a capitalist society, the superstructural institutions are mobilized to protect capital. Those could and were effectively conquered by the oppressed class at times in recent history, including religion. An example would be liberation theology in Latin America, or the movements of Marxist Muslim scholars in Central and South Asia.

Sure, but it seems those same structures remain in place today but in a secularized form. Nation-States create this divisive sentiment which the bourgeois classes utilise in order to bid the oppressed against each others. The struggle between the state and the church is secondary to the material struggle between an upper and a lower class.

Yeah, because his library is full of Islamist and Salafi literature.

I heavily recommend The Blind Owl by Sadegh Hedayat. From Wikipedia:

Persian novella by Sadegh Hedayat that is about an isolated, unnamed narrator who recounts his obsessive love for an enigmatic woman and his gradual descent into psychological fragmentation, conveyed through a dark, hallucinatory narrative in which reality, memory, and nightmare become indistinguishable.

You could open gmail inside a separate firefox container. As long as you don’t use the email beyond school purposes it would be fine.

I’d like to imagine him gleefully watching people having fun in bed.

I’m afraid you’re being maliciously obtuse. There is no need to criticize my pretty regular vocabulary. And the fact that you think the USA hasn’t historically been at the center of the imperialist propaganda machine fruther confirms the need to end our conversation.

The comment above that I replied to had the effect, regardless of intentions, of dismissing and whitewashing the actions of past US administrations, in a way that reduces the illegal invasions of the current administration into an exceptional, idiosyncratic, and one-off behavior. The reality is the US has been hated worldwide for far too long, at least since the end of WW2. I hope I was informative and pertinent enough according to your standards.

The internet is not a neutral space. A country having its own social media platforms instead of letting American companies harvest their citizens’ data is not truly censorship.

their polling indicates they have no idea the level of propaganda they are being faced with every day.

You’re being solipsistic. Not everything you disagree with based on personal whims is “propaganda.”
