Communism means humanity, global peace and complete destruction of class-based ANTI-society. The Red Banner will win!

[Paweł Wargan @pawelwargan]

Imperialists keep having to invent socialist massacres to deflect from the reality that capitalism is one continuous, world-spanning genocide.

We often hear about the 140 people who died trying to cross the Berlin Wall over a period spanning 28 years. But we never hear about the 9,900 people who die every single day because they lack access to healthcare — a direct outcome of imperialism's denial of sovereignty to the global periphery.

We often hear about some number of people who supposedly died at Tiananmen Square in 1989 — a highly-contested narrative. But we do not hear about the 1,545 people who die every single day because of Western sanctions — 38 million people in total over a fifty year period.

Given the sheer barbarism of the imperialist world system, we should marvel at how mild the actions of socialist and revolutionary projects are by the standards of the systemic and unrelenting violence they are forced to confront. And there is certainly no need for progressive forces to be apologetic or ashamed about these measures.

North Korea is far more democratic than the USA is.

Don’t think so? It’s because you’re brainwashed.

Vean la democracia que la OTAN dejó en Libia, estos son campos de concentración de inmigrantes en Tripoli.

La UE paga a terroristas para evitar que estas personas lleguen a sus costas, los secuestran en alta mar y luego los meten en estos agujeros.

Esta es la "democracia" occidental, no lo verás en sus medios de comunicación que tanto apoyaron invadir Libia y asesinar a Gadafi.

🇨🇺 If Fidel Castro was such a “failure”, why does Cuba — a small, sanctioned island nation — still outperform many capitalist countries in healthcare, literacy and life expectancy?

🔴Before Castro:
• Cuba under Batista was a US-backed dictatorship
• Huge inequality, mafia control and rural poverty existed
• Large parts of the population lacked education and healthcare
• Opposition was brutally crushed

🔴After the revolution:
• Literacy campaigns made Cuba nearly 100% literate
• Universal free healthcare and education were established
• Cuba achieved one of the world’s highest doctor-per-capita ratios
• Infant mortality became lower than even the United States in some years
• Cuban doctors were sent worldwide for humanitarian missions

Yes, Cuba has political restrictions and economic hardships. But pretending Batista and Castro were “the same” is historically dishonest.

One regime protected elite interests and foreign corporations. The other transformed social indicators despite decades of US sanctions, blockade and constant destabilization attempts.

You cannot seriously discuss Cuba without mentioning:
➡️ Free healthcare
➡️ Free education
➡️ Land reforms
➡️ Massive reduction in illiteracy and poverty
➡️ Independent foreign policy
➡️ One of the best public health systems in the developing world.

It’s crazy how the actual, serious hasbara narrative about all these reports is that there’s a giant global antisemitic conspiracy in which all humanitarian institutions are collaborating with mainstream news outlets in a sinister plot to make Israel look bad.

We are living through a moment of a defining moral choice: will you stand against the genocide in Palestine? Or will you surrender to the forces of darkness and repression.

We have made our choice. We had no alternative. Free Palestine ✌️🇵🇸

Ukraine is the prototype. This will happen in Poland, Germany, France and Britain in the not-too-distant future. By 2028?

Comrades keep telling me no men in Britain want to fight against Russia for our corrupt govt.

Who thinks the 1.5M dead Ukrainian men wanted to?

The Soviet Union went from peasant backwardness to space exploration in one generation. That’s a strange definition of failure.

Declaración del III Foro Internacional Antifascista, organizado por el Partido Comunista de la Federación de Rusia

Exigimos con firmeza que Estados Unidos cese sus intentos de imponer su voluntad a la República de #Cuba. Durante décadas, Cuba ha sido un símbolo de dignidad y fidelidad a su camino elegido. Las numerosas sanciones contra la Isla de la Libertad y las acusaciones arbitrarias de Washington contra el líder de la Revolución Cubana, Raúl Castro Ruz, deben terminar de inmediato. El bloqueo a Cuba es un acto de terrorismo de Estado contra todo un pueblo. El deseo patológico de castigar a países enteros por su elección de camino de desarrollo es un ejemplo de política irresponsable y criminal.

[Arturo Dominguez @extremearturo]

Marco Rubio once claimed his family fled Cuba's Revolution in 1959 after Fulgencio Batista was ousted. When that was debunked with official documentation proving his family fled the U.S.-backed Batista regime, which was killing its opposition in the streets, he responded by saying his story was based on family lore passed down by his parents and grandparents, not official accounts.

And that, my friends, is how many Cuban Americans derive their opinions about Cuba. Hyperbolic “family lore” that when faced with even the slightest scrutiny, doesn't add up or jibe with historical records. That's why they get mad at you and call you names when you meet them with the slightest push back.

And I get it. Challenging decades-old false narratives that they lived their whole lives believing and accepting they were lied to my family is hard.

But it's absolutely necessary.

Listen to my people on the island. Give their stories more weight. They are no one's enemy. They just want to be left alone and to live without penalty.

The Ukrainian regime has normalised Nazism to such an extent that they managed to piss off the biggest supporter of the proxy war against Russia. Notably, every other European country seems totally fine with it.

The first part of our investigation into the modern South African economy is out now! In this one we look at the structure of the South African economy and argue that other than the creation of a black bourgeoisie, very little has actually changed since 1994. What happened then was that the South African white borugeois realised that they could keep things pretty much as they were as long as the dealt in a small layer of black, wannabe bourgeois into the bargain. The South African working class has been paying the price for this ever since then.

[Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez @DiazCanelB]

Ahora dicen cínicamente que no existe bloqueo petrolero a #Cuba, que todo lo que sufre nuestro pueblo es culpa del Gobierno cubano.

Mienten una y otra vez sin ningún pudor, con una desfachatez alarmante, sin presentar una sola evidencia que sustente sus afirmaciones.

La culpa es de quienes ordenan cerrar todos los accesos a recursos materiales y financieros.

¿O acaso se suspendió la orden ejecutiva del 29 de enero del 2026 que penaliza con aranceles irracionales a cualquier país que provea de combustible a Cuba?

¿Cómo entender entonces que el Departamento del Tesoro siga restringiendo los envíos de combustible a Cuba en sus sistemáticas actualizaciones?

Solo mentes muy retorcidas podrían negar ante el mundo ese castigo colectivo que se ejerce contra todo un pueblo y ya se va convirtiendo en acto de genocidio.

Ha sido la práctica de ese imperio, armar guerras y exterminar pueblos sobre la base de la mentira.

Hechos y no palabras son las respuestas que Cuba y el mundo reclaman.

Quiten el #Bloqueo y vamos a ver a cómo tocamos.
