history phd at ucsc studying colonial monetary policy in south asia / marxism, money and labour

and then comes in the racism accusation like poison. there were “white leftists” on the flotilla too? and presenting him as a underprivileged black man is ridiculous given the context that he represents workers!! most labour leaders in history were!!

[tanvi @femceleras]

the chris smalls controversy has basically demonstrated that american leftists are completely swayed by sensational politics. taking the flotilla to cuba and palestine is very admirable but it doesn’t make you a good labour leader in the slightest. how is this debatable?

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

For the first time, the original Pakistani cypher — cable I-0678, the document that triggered the removal of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan — released in full by Drop Site.

The classified document, known as a cypher, shows that State Department diplomats had threatened in 2022 that Pakistan would suffer greatly if Khan remained in office, but that “all would be forgiven” if he were removed in a no-confidence vote.

The Biden administration was infuriated over Khan’s refusal to grant rights for U.S. drone bases in Pakistan, as well as his neutral stance on the Russia-Ukraine war.

So what's worse: the cynic who believes they're in academia to pursue a narrowly construed self-interest or the deluded who believes the pursuit of academic career is advancing collective liberation?
