• The liberation of all those who are oppressed
• The end to the death cult that is Capitalism
• The establishment of a transitional Proletariat state
• The death of cars
• The greening of cities
• The end of all colonial projects

Also, on the idea of us Marxists losing the class war, that's also not true. In my major urban region, the anarchists have achieved no major feats and my organization(that only formed a little more than six months ago) has made incredible strides in mobilizing the people. (2/2)
Actually, quite the opposite. I used to be one. I read the theory, I engaged in the discourse. But then I did a few thought experiments trying to find out how to resolve the issues of the world and anarchism failed to meet even the basic standards. (1/2)
"Most communists that attack anarchists have never read anarchist theory, and only do so to hide the weaknesses and failures of their own movement. They attack anarchists because they know they're losing the class war and need someone to blame that doesn't indict themselves."
As Judge Reed O'Connor indicated, the egregious sentencing is to send a message to anyone with the same beliefs. We will continue to fight to bring our loved ones home.
Sentences are starting to come out:
Zachary Evetts - 50 years
Maricela Rueda - 70 years
Savanna Batten - 50 years
Autumn Hill - 50 years
We will not stop fighting for their freedom.
The US Empire does not care if Cuba gives in and privatizes its economy or not. It does not care if it makes its political system in the image of the US. No, unless Cuba is occupied or destroyed will the US cease its hostilities. This is a dying empire; there will be no mercy.
US imposes FURTHER sanctions on Cuba targeting the Mariel Harbour, finance companies dealing with international transactions, mining and steel.
That sick criminal bastard Rubio really wants to completely strangle Cuba.
#HandsOffCuba
absolutely disgusting. the US is going to continue to bankrupt cuba and makes its people suffer until the US takes full control. colonialism never ended
@AprilsBooks Forgive me for asking, but isn't that the same thing? I've been operating under the thought that ML, if done correctly, inherently includes decolonialism. Tbh, one isn't an ML if they don't pursue decolonialism as otherwise they would reject the sovereignty of the colonized.
It should be obvious by now that democracies anywhere are always under threat so long as the imperial system, headed by the United States, is allowed to continue to exist. This was no fair election.
Abelardo de la Espriella, a rightwing Trump-loving former criminal defence lawyer who has pledged to build mega-prisons in the rainforest to combat rising crime rates, won 49.65% of the vote with 99.70% of ballots tallied in an initial count on Sunday. https://t.co/Au6TsUV2VW
Also, if we're being honest with ourselves, the Democrats are just as much fascists as the Republicans, they just have different flavoring that is more acceptable for the progressive colonizers.
They're not afraid of you!!! You're still operating within the frameworks that they designed! Electoralism has, in the course of the 250 year history of this hellhole, never worked once! Any example of "victories" are hollow, limited, and dissipate with only a little bit of time!
The US empire is waging a neocolonial assault all across Latin America.
The US blatantly meddled in Colombia's election. Trump and Marco Rubio backed the far-right, multimillionaire candidate Abelardo de la Espriella (a defender of fascist paramilitaries), and there are serious irregularities in the results.
Colombia's current left-wing President Gustavo Petro has been very pro-Palestine and pro-China. He cut relations with the genocidal Israeli regime and joined China's Belt and Road Initiative.
De la Espriella vows to form a close alliance with the US and Israel, and minimize relations with China. Just a few weeks before the elections, he was in Florida, meeting with far-right US politicians who are close allies of Trump and Rubio.
The same thing is happening across the continent. The US carried out a blatant electoral coup in Honduras, to put a drug cartel-linked, pro-US, pro-Israel, anti-China puppet in power.
The US is currently trying to steal the election in Peru, to put the daughter of the fascist former dictator in power.
The US empire already has far-right puppets in power in Argentina, Chile, and Ecuador. The leader of Chile is the Pinochet-defending son of a Nazi war criminal. The dictator of Ecuador is the son of the country's richest billionaire oligarch.
Brazil is the next target of the US empire's neocolonial assault, in this year's election.
This is the colonial Monroe Doctrine in the neo-fascist era.
The US strangles Cuba for 50+ years and forces them to concede to *some* market reforms
Anarchists: "Just dissolve your state completely bro. You'll survive better against the US if you just make your society more disorganized than my chud-ass bedroom. Also, don't take showers."
No, but that’s the point. “Terrorism” is not a word meant to be used with any sort of function beyond undermining movements that challenge capital and imperial efforts. Wrote a piece on this a while back.
Me when socialism is a rigid and specific system instead of a living, dialectical process that must exist under the conditions of a global capitalist economic hegemon dead set on the complete obliteration of any form of sovereignty, especially socialist sovereignty.
@thelongmarch86 It's almost as if the idea of Socialism in One Country doesn't work and a revolution needs to be global to succeed.
Crazy.
Anyway sorry they got sick of the 'AES' and hit the button to recreate the Capitalist mode of production.
@AprilsBooks That's what I'm saying! That's why when I had to do my graduating paper for college, I focused on the BPP. They legitimately were really close to enacting revolution across the US, but unfortunately succumbed to internal and external pressures. We have so much to learn from them!
Not to say this is a bad example, but there are, in fact, many more options to choose from as examples of direct class warfare in the US. I mean, one blatantly obvious example is the activities of the Black Panther Party. Please take time to investigate before you speak.
