From New York to Berlin, the socialist alternative is winning!
Heartiest congratulations to Comrade @ElifEralpBerlin on leading @dielinkeberlin to a historic victory. Hope that you will be able to fulfill your promises centered on housing rights, social justice, and dignity.
Berlin’s clear mandate against conservative rule proves that a programmatic alternative can push back the right wing. Your victory is an inspiration to all those who pursue class politics. More power to the working people!
Strongly condemn the attack on Iran by the United States and Israel. The statements of US President Donald Trump leave no doubt that US and Israel are deliberately imposing war on Iran. This will endanger millions of lives and draw the world to the brink of a catastrophic conflagration with devastating consequences for humanity, threatening international peace and security on a scale unprecedented in recent history.
It is deeply worrying that the attack comes immediately after PM Narendra Modi's visit to Israel. Government of India should unequivocally condemn the attack on Iran and demand the immediate cessation of hostilities. STOP THE WAR NOW!
"History never ends. The last page is never written, and the best pages are written not by the princes, presidents, prime ministers, popes, or even professors, but by the people. For all their faults and shortcomings, the people are all we have. In fact, we are they."
Michael Parenti was one of the foremost public intellectuals from the West who stood unapologetically with the people, confronted power, and unmasked the false narratives manufactured by media and academia that sought to legitimize imperialist wars and capitalist exploitation.
The people will remember Parenti, and his legacy will be celebrated by those whose realities he made impossible to ignore.
Prof. @RadDesai & I argue in this @frontline_india article:
"The kidnapping of Nicolás Maduro shows that Washington can no longer mount serious regime-change campaigns, so it stages small, theatrical raids to impress domestic voters".

The entire international community must speak out to end the reckless and unlawful aggression of Israel against Iran. Backed by the complicit support of the imperialist power bloc led by the United States, Israel continues its brazen and belligerent onslaught across West Asia.
No peace-loving, dignified person can remain silent in the face of such atrocities, especially the ongoing genocide in #Gaza. The time has come to stand up, speak out, and hold this rogue state accountable. Only then can we hope to restore peace and normalcy in the region.
Liberals celebrating Grok's ‘anti-Modi’ responses as some kind of AI resistance are missing the point.
Fascist Musk’s AI doesn’t ‘oppose’ Modi — it metabolizes political antagonism into engagement, ad revenue and data extraction.
The book is extremely precious to me & i will be really grateful if you can find it. The cover was off-white in colour and it had a picture of Vladimir Lenin.
On the back side, top left corner, pictures of marx, engels and lenin were there.
An optimistic thanks in advance.

I was travelling from Kochi to Delhi yesterday on your flight 6E-2382.
My seat number was 15A. While deboarding i left a book in the seat pocket in front of me.
The title is Against Dogmatism and Sectarianism in the Working-Class Movement. Author: Vladimir Lenin

The Soviet Union was the only country in World War II that immediately granted Soviet citizenship to any Jewish refugee from any country who reached its territory and claimed asylum. Stalin declared, "Whatever we eat, you eat, and wherever we live, you live," without restrictions.
In contrast, all Western countries had strict quotas and deported refugees back to Nazi-controlled lands. One example is the MS *St. Louis*, a ship that sailed from Hamburg to North America but was forced to return to Europe, where more than 900 of its Jewish passengers were exterminated. 🫠
These hoarders of vulgar amounts of wealth have absolutely no shame in demanding more blood and sweat from those who create that wealth at the cost of their own lives.
Shame!
We are not ready to die for your profits.
L&T Chairman S.N. Subrahmanyan's remark advocating a #90hrWorkWeek reveals nothing but the insatiable thirst of these capitalists for profit through the ruthless and inhuman exploitation of the Indian working class.

@narendramodi@narendramodi ji,
Hope you haven't forgotten these images. It all happened on your command & by your police.
Dont forget that @b_bhushansharan is a member of BJP & he is the one against whom these brave fighters were seeking justice which they never got.
Stop this Hypocrisy !
Wage workers constitute more than 40 per cent of the total workforce in India. 65 per cent of these wage workers live in rural areas. The question of rural employment, therefore, is a key question for India's economic development.

More than 40 innocent civilians—mostly women and children—were brutally killed in a bombing by Israel yesterday. Approximately 14,000 children have been killed in Gaza since October 7th in such attacks and many more are trapped in a cycle of inhumane suffering. This is a stain on humanity. The time calls for us to rise above politics, the bondage of historical beliefs of "right and wrong," or religious and ideological divides to protect our children.
As you may recall, in October 2023, we, as a group of 103 Nobel Laureates from across the world, had collectively made an appeal to stop this mayhem. All Israeli children are our children. All Palestinian children are our children. They must not pay the price for a crime they did not commit. Let us Globalise Compassion.
