  • rainpizzaOPtoEurope•🇫🇷🪧❌🇺🇦 "Macron, we will not die for Ukraine!": A massive national peace march takes place in Paris.
    2·
    15 小时前

    The amount of people getting active now around the western world is truly a sight to behold.

    More and more people are getting aware that their material conditions are declining due to the enormous amount of resources and money(that increases as much as the warmongering from the EU) being sent to Ukraine.

    The ideal here will be for a worker’s party to channel that dissatisfaction into dismantling NATO, into dismantling the imperialist system and into creating strong solidarity for the people of Donbas. However, we know that solidarity orgs like the one from Anna Novikova are being actively persecuted by the French.

    What remains is that french comrades(or the EU comrades as a whole) need to help the masses avoid falling into the opportunist lies that are coming from the right wing. If Free Penguin is right about the organizers, then the goal is just to redirect that dissatisfaction into changing their gov’t into a more fascist one instead of actively dismantle NATO and the imperialist system in the EU.

    There needs to be more grassroots organizations from our comrades to channel that dissatisfaction into the proper objectives.

    The fear has sometimes been expressed that photography would in time entirely supersede the art of painting. Some people seem to think that when the process of taking photographs in colors has been perfected and made common enough, the painter will have nothing more to do.

    Would you look at this! Interesting how we are seeing history rhyme nowadays. If only capitalism didn’t exist and if we were in a socialist state, we will openly embrace new tools.

    From my humble perspective, that religious belief will only cease to exist when the material reality that supports it disappears. This will be very painful for people like this pro-EU user. It will be similar to an ego death when their own inflated identity collapses.

    This is exactly what is happening to the pro yankee latin american crowd. Now, lots of them are treated like trash and humiliated by the same “hero” that they held in the pedestal. Hunted down by those white supremacists yankee group that they thought they belong to.

    I just remain hopeful that, when the collapse of their material conditions and the humiliation that will come afterward happen, they will finally empathize with the oppressed. They will finally look at us as human beings and not their lessers.

    I just hope it happens before it is too late.

    It is sad how desperate you are to deflect your imperialist country’s blame to others. You are trying too hard to preserve that “rosy” and “civilized” image of your country and that is moving you to cynically dismiss plenty of valuable arguments that have been shared to you that proved your understanding is not accurate.

    All I can say to you is that it won’t be Putin or Russia that will tear your privilege and material conditions apart but your own ruling class. It won’t be some external enemy that you dehumanized to the extreme that will make your country people suffer but your own regime’s greed.

    Putin has been quite consistent in attacking countries every few years.

    Meanwhile in the real world instead of the fiction that you have in your head:

    Some of these invasions were done with the aid of Europe. Examples: Iraq War, Libya… From my standpoint, the countries that consistently attack others are the US and their European vassals and not Russia.

    This thread was tough to read and made me sympathize with comrades from the EU. Reading this felt what I usually experience with the pro Yankee liberals/fascists in Latam that openly praise the imperialist boot and brag about being spit on by their “heroes”.

    Those pro EU bootlickers that are in this thread sound very privileged to the point that they are unable to see the suffering of people outside their own circles(example: the brutality that the pro Palestinian protestors receive from the German police )

    From my standpoint, these people will only learn how undemocratic and brutal the EU is when their own material conditions deteriorate to the point that no amount of lies will ever be able to put makeup on it. That reminds me of the pro Milei Argentinian crowd that are feeling the brunt of Neoliberalism. Maybe, european liberals as a whole have to feel that humiliation and destruction done by their rulers through inhumane neoliberalism to wake up.

    Just like the post that you shared before, the West must learn a humility bordering on humiliation.

    I am glad that it could help. Another way that I see Russia is the two internal identities that they have: The soviet Identity(that grows stronger by the day as referenced in this article) and the liberal identity(Yeltsin liberalism that came from the 90s and it is weakening by the day thanks to the strong organizing of our comrades in Russia).

    Using as a guide Mao’s “On the Correct Handling of Contradictions Among the People”, both identities within Russia have non-antagonistic contradictions as well as an antagonistic aspect. In this case, the non-antagonistic contradictions is Western Imperialism while the antagonistic aspect, it is the internal exploitation produced by the liberal identity that Russian capitalists favor.

    With the war in Ukraine, the non-antagonistic contradiction became the priority for both identities which forced them to collaborate into solving those.

    Someone else could throw a better analysis but that is my understanding so far.

    They are even bragging about it as if they were “heroes” in this story. -> https://xcancel.com/AGPamBondi/status/1998875795151024337#m

    From Pam Bondi:

    Today, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security Investigations, and the United States Coast Guard, with support from the Department of War, executed a seizure warrant for a crude oil tanker used to transport sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran. For multiple years, the oil tanker has been sanctioned by the United States due to its involvement in an illicit oil shipping network supporting foreign terrorist organizations. This seizure, completed off the coast of Venezuela, was conducted safely and securely—and our investigation alongside the Department of Homeland Security to prevent the transport of sanctioned oil continues.
