I’ve just published a new essay on my website, an argument against fetishising power, in favour of a grounded, revolutionary optimism.

I’d welcome any and all feedback, this is my first large piece I’ve written post-university, hope you guys enjoy.

An article by General Secretary Xi Jinping titled "Pursuing a Financial Development Path with Chinese Characteristics to Boost China's Strength in Finance" was published in the English edition of Qiushi Journal, 2nd issue of 2026.

It explained fundamental issues related to boosting China's strength in finance and clarified how to understand and carry out financial work in the new era. Full text: https://t.co/H6Db5TjkvA

these people are legitimately fucking insane. their ultimate fantasy is someone actually giving a shit about Britain enough to invade it, just so they can sit back and go ‘that’s what you get when you feed hungry children’

@maybeornotaria I agree that the material conditions are the cause of non-revolutionary thought, that is precisely Losurdo and Rockhill’s argument!

[labour time @labour_time]

@After__History @swishyism Just because Losurdo happened to say “China looks like it is on the right trajectory” before he died, and said that the continuation of the Chinese Revolution is part of the same historical tradition as Stalin, doesn’t mean he twisted history into a grand ideological narrative

[labour time @labour_time]

@After__History @swishyism I’ve enjoyed other articles from you but I think the framing of “both sides of this debate are extreme, the truth is in the middle” only works when both are genuinely extreme in their claims: Losurdo’s writings are more subtle than “Stalin never recognised Western thought”

@afrocosmist Patlabor 2 - it’s a tense political thriller about a false flag perpetrated by America to remilitarise Japan.

It also has mechs in it.

Directed by Mamoro Oshii, who did Ghost in the Shell.

@_The_Wub_ No worries, ur one of the best accounts on this site

Your post was an “aha!” moment, it articulated things in a very clear way, after arguing with Rev from the ACP about gold and the nature of money-commodity in a random group chat (luckily these days I am a lot less online lol)

These planes take off from England, bomb Iran, and come right back to refuel and rearm before leaving again.

If the British public allows this to continue it will be a stain that never washes off.

@FungibleWorker @primarycatdad I wrote an essay about this a while back :)

@ChrisCWright1 @NinaFarnia @norabf Chomsky was a pseudo-leftist who constantly criticised Marxism, admitted he didn’t understand it, and didn’t advocate for any actually-existing socialist projects.

He also regularly hung out with a billionaire pedophile, calling him his best friend.

Shut the fuck up.

@NiaFrome Why Sheinbaum? (honest question)

@ImmaKrazyKat @JeanGreige Why would you let western-funded, CIA backdoors into your infrastructure? A sovereign internet (like China) is the sensible way to go in the face of imperialist aggression

[barry with the NED @bonzerbarry]

Padrino López, Minister of Defense:

The Bolivarian National Armed Forces strongly condemn the cowardly kidnapping of Nicolás Maduro Moros, Constitutional President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, our Commander-in-Chief, and his wife, First Lady Dr. Cilia Flores de Maduro; an act perpetrated yesterday, Saturday, January 3, after the cold-blooded murder of a large part of his security team, soldiers, and innocent citizens

Likewise, in accordance with the decision of the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice dated January 3, 2026, by which Ms. Delcy Eloína Rodríguez Gómez, Executive Vice President of the Republic, was appointed to assume, in an acting capacity, all the powers, duties, and faculties of President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela; and in strict compliance with the provisions of our Constitution, the Organic Law on States of Emergency, and the Organic Law on National Security; we fully support the Decree of a State of External Disturbance throughout the national territory, previously signed. In this same vein, the Bolivarian Government will guarantee the governability of the country, and our institution will continue to employ all its available capabilities for military defense, the maintenance of internal order, and the preservation of peace

Therefore, we activate, throughout the entire national geographic space and in perfect popular-military-police fusion, the Full Operational Readiness, in order to integrate the elements of National Power in the mission to confront imperial aggression, forming a single combat bloc to ensure the freedom, independence, and sovereignty of the Nation.

The FANB is the United Liberation Army of the 21st Century!

Chávez lives!... The Homeland continues! Independence and Socialist Homeland!... We will live and we will triumph! The Sun of Venezuela rises in the Essequibo! Independence or nothing!... Always loyal... Never traitors!

"This book is not advancing a simplistic argument that the intelligentsia has been remote-controlled by the CIA. Examining the material reality of intellectual production dialectically, it foregrounds all the various types of agency at work."

If you think the CIA funding the Frankfurt school doesn't matter, you're a fucking mark. Grow up.

[smoker of cryptic weed @WASJAPPIN]

there's something so funny about the imperialist running dogs in anglo media often in the same breath complaining about an imagined 'stalinist' threat or explicitly whinging about tankies while both referring to someone as Comrade Gamma and demanding we respect their authority
