Fucking terrible news to wake up to.
Really hope the revolution can survive without him.
Since having kids I think I’ve been more sick in a year than 10+ years before kids and they aren’t even in daycare.
It’s probably a combination of kids immune systems are still developing so they spread stuff easily and they pick up everything since they touch and put everything they can into their mouths
Feel like that’s a bit of a straw man - Lenin didn’t claim that his contribution to Marxist theory constituted naming a new ideology after himself.
It was after his death that the idea that his work had advanced understanding of Marxism enough and that it had led to a revolution that that it should be an ideology.
There’s plenty of authors of Marxist theory that don’t end up in -isms but still have very valuable contributions.
This is coming from someone who thinks the “anarchist don’t read theory” thing is overplayed as most of the IRL anarchists I know do read theory.
Unfortunately I think the article is correct in that China currently won’t do much materially if the US attacks Venezuela. 😔
If it was closer in its sphere of influence (and more importantly closer where it’s navy could reach) it would be a different but with the distance it makes the logistics very difficult.
WSWS is run but trots, you can say a lot about trots but being pro CPC is definitely not one of those things lmao
You’re not helping them long term which was the point of the Sankara quote.
It forces these countries to be dependent on food aid rather than self sufficient which means that if they try to go even somewhat against neoliberalism and actually raise the living standards and wages of their people the US then pulls the aid (as well as likely aiding armed groups to kill the leadership) in order to force the government out and installing comprador regimes in its place.
Specific examples don’t match the best but it made me think of this!

Was interested in how similar to the original group they were and found their website here.
Skimming it over they are still explicitly marxist-Leninist and largely seem to uphold the same ideas and values as the original just updated to the current struggle!
