After 2008. Tiabbi was one of the few journalists I can think of who gained a large audience by reporting on the crimes of the financial sectors and their government accomplices. Him doubling down on "cancel culture" debates right as the Fed is again using the money printer to give billions (at this point it might be trillions?) to bailout their friends is either incredibly stupid or suspicious. Maybe he just realizes bullshit culture war writing is an easier day job than picking fights with the entire banking sector.

I think a large part of the appeal of Anarchism in the west is that it allows you to believe in socialism without confronting anti-communist beliefs that the population holds. In the Chomsky article that I linked earlier, the author mentions that one of the reasons why Maoism was so big amongst 60s radicals was because it allowed them to Marxists without confronting their anti-Soviet indoctrination.

I think we should do something to increase awareness of the rising communist sentiment in America. Something to freak out libs and conservatives who aren't terminally online. Shift the Overton window and have it be a discussion point as we get closer to November.

Whatever it is needs to be visible. Maybe we could get an ad company to print up some door hangers with a few brief statements about the benefits of communism and put them on the door of every home in a major suburb. Most of the people will just ignore them but it'll put the idea in their head that communism is trying to make a comeback.

a very quick look at the map of europe at the time and the most basic knowledge of the principles of military strategy ought to make it clear why france wasn't exactly in a position to have a revolution that could make any lasting gains in '68

unless you think that the soviets should have started world war 3 over france once the inevitable counterrevolution and foreign intervention hit, of course

that isn’t “class first” marxism that’s racist dog whistling and american exceptionalism combined with anime villain monologuing. his mistake was taking it a few steps too far in revealing alt-right bullshit. if rudatron used to not be as bad, then he definitely got a lot worse and absolutely deserved the ban

you could get a lot of mileage by making an account calling the PRF-MLM revisionists and insist that another, smaller clique is the authentic bolivian MLM force. also insist in very strong terms that a country that's actually already led by a socialist party (or hopefully will be) under assault from the global hegemon -- and winning -- is bad. we need another group of chodes in the forest to wage war on them. obviously communism will benefit from that, not the hegemon. it worked in peru, right?

FRI has, I believe, moved significantly to the right since that period, and is now a liberal party to the right of MAS.

to be slightly optimistic, I don't sense the same kind of jubilation you got with obama in 2007. I don't know if the democratic party is ever going to be a real vehicle for change but i think people are digging in for another fight to not die penniless from the plague. I don't know what that means in the long run, the easiest answer is "nothing" but who the hell knows anymore.
