  • probably some of the real names of his compatriots he ratted on

  • tupac was a new afrikan communist

  • Judeo-Bolshevism and Islamo-Communism theories exist in the world at the same time, notably, no "Christian agenda" is antagonized like this.

    They have a website (link is in arabic it might look funny without rendering).

    I don't have a good collected source but some bullet points about them:

    • The symbol is a merger of the Christian Cross and the Islamic Crescent, creating a pinwheel iconography, has nothing to do with the Nazis. The party is secular but these are the two largest faiths of Syria and Lebanon and wanted to bridge religious sectarianism and antagonize the partition of governments by faith.
    • They were founded during French-ruled Lebanon I believe, one of their main points is that they want to bring Syria and Lebanon back together under one state. They were partitioned into Christian dominated and Muslim dominated states from effectively one historic country/region. The Social National party is secularist and views the division on religious grounds as unnecessary (for instance, the president of Lebanon must be a Christian). So this aspect, of bringing together a reunited Syria, is their main claim in Syrian (and Lebanese) politics.
    • Not fascists, take no inspiration from fascist movements.
    • Not Marxist, though some members are (but in practice most Marxists in the region were usually Communists or Baathists). They are mostly secular vaguely left liberals, some conservatives, kinda like a KMT-type coalition (which can obviously devolve into something nasty/reactionary).
    • Their main main allies have historically been other Syrian Nationalist parties, including the Arab Nationalists. SSNP believes in a historic and unified Syria, but recognize Syria is an Arab nation, and wants to first build a Syrian state and then a greater Arab state. Their disagreements with states like the United Arab Republic then are, order of operations based. They often had issue with Syria being dictated by a power centered in Egypt. The Baathists (Arab Socialists) then, sat in the middle, viewing either route more from a Scientific Socialist lens, i.e., what is necessary to get the job done of defeating Imperialism. This made the Baath party and SSNP fairly good allies and they dominated the United Front in Syria basically until last year. They had some beef with Iraq Baath because it used the Neo-Colonial Iraq borders and didn't align its interests solely with the historic "fertile crescent", historic Syria. The Baath trying to exercise a more practical reality with sharing a country with Persians and Kurds gave them real differences. SSNP had decent ties to the Palestinians and the Communists, or rather, they often had enough common cause to work together.
    • Like basically every major party in the region, they have an armed wing distinct from the Syrian Army.
    • They generally do not like the new regime, are critical, and will likely dip in and out of armed struggle with it, but are willing to work with it to secure Syrian interests (in practice -- combatting Zionism mainly).
    • One last thing, their party interests might seem quite niche, and it is. They are quite institutional, and being coalition members in the previous state, they maintained a lot of independent power alongside the Baathists. They were also big historically in diaspora communities. In the region, a lot of parties basically propose a model of government, more-so than a specific ideology. Or rather, main distinguishers of their ideology is their vision of statecraft, because these are countries that sprang into existence during anti-colonial resistance or overthrow of monarchal regimes. Though, this may not be foreign to Leftists after all.
  • Investigated deeper into this so-called "basket of American dream essentials":

    1. Housing that "guarantees safety" (segregated)
    2. Insurance premiums, laundry services, hygiene and cosmetics
    3. Eating out
    4. Driving 15k miles and getting hotels and food on the road
    5. Year round babysitter for children under 4, seasonal for school age

    1. College degree for each child without student loans (lmao?)
    2. Toys and youth sports (haven't checked the quantities)
    3. Smartphones, computers, television sets, streaming services
    4. Running shoes + "clothing"
    5. 6 movies and 2 MLB games every year for a nuke family

  • Besides their "War on Russia" and multiple times hacking the PRC, a big example would be them attacking Syria for claims that the government took out communication infra during a "crackdown". It turns out, it was the US NSA that took down Syria's telecoms during an ISIS invasion so Anonymous went out of their way to prevent any messaging between the government fighting ISIS and the civilian population.

  • No, and they aren't even "anti-Auth", the US isn't on their chart, Britian ain't there either. They are basically middle class moralists and join their colonial governments in terrorizing the infrastructure of states oppressed by Imperialism. They are little digital missionary rats.

  • Tamils have lived on the Island for over 2000 years and their angst against the Republic is for issues in the last two centuries with land grabs and displacement targeted at them. Referring to them being "colonizers" is very irrelevant to the struggles in the country.

  • i've been saying this, and Canada is just a front for the Hudson Bay Company

    the settlers are along for the ride

  • Zelensky has been ruling unelected for like a year now, and the president before him was unelected. The president before that was impeached by a Parliament that blocked his party from voting the day after neo Nazis tried to assassinate him.

  • And complacency

  • Rural land is organized in communes, you can move to the countryside from the city, but you must be invited into the commune or rent from it as a tenant, costing you for the privilege of using their land.

    The cities are only so big as they are developed, and growth takes time and energy. Due to the market, living in the cities costs more, so you can move from the countryside to the cities, if you can afford it (i.e. stable job), which is hard because the city can only plan for so many jobs in any given time.

    Moving like that is difficult, and is more expensive than staying put, because the real economic cost of such a move has an expensive impact on the whole economy. This applies everywhere, which is why some lineages haven't left Southside Chicago or South Central LA since it those neighborhoods were redlined, and the life expectancy is almost a decade shorter than the metro average:

    Movement only "feels free" in the US, because much of the population is able to pay for the freedom of movement (using surplus labor).

    This system is also partially why many of the big cities are provinces in their own. It gives provincial, and hukuo powers to the urbanites to decide how they want to grow (within the constraints of the overall state plan). In the US, instead it's often people with freedom cash pushing out existing urbanites, sometimes into the outskirts, sometimes into more concentrated enclaves, sometimes onto the streets.

  • Red Nation Rising: From Bordertown Violence to Native Liberation is a required reading for Chunka Luta Network. You can find it in the Chunka Luta Library: https://mega.nz/folder/cuMwjRyK#eDPayQSdYFwaCh9qr8zzPw/file/cvUg1BxR

    This reading is required because we need every communist in North America to know the current violent conditions for native communities and individuals, as well as the structure of White Supremacist occupation.

    It describes the overall process of what this is showing a slice of, ongoing genocide.

  • Colonialism involves incorporation of a foreign territory into the political-economy of the metropole, and this is a physical occupation. Imperialism is about breaking into, by threat of force (or sanction), the economy of a distinct political territory not claimed by the Imperial power. The US was colonizing the Philippines until they won independence, now the relationship is Imperial, the US does not claim the PH but they exert control over the economy of the PH through implied force (and other means). The US broke into Edo Japanese markets with Imperialism.

    Colonialism is not exclusive to Capitalism, and neither is Imperialism (the tributaries of Roman and the Aztec empires extended beyond their "borders"). It's actually Colonialism that birthed Capitalism. The slave trade and colonization of the Americas gave the merchant class of Europe the wealth to buy titles and in-debt the feudal lords and kings and fund their wars. This is the creation of the bourgeoisie as a class.

    Can socialism have Colonialism? Yes, but most always inherited. The Russian SSR still had a settler colonial relationship to the Siberian peoples, even while they were protected behind autonomous SSRs, due to the history of settler colonialism under the empire, Russian settlers in the east had communities built with stolen wealth (and even the proletarianization of Russian cities in general!), much wealthier than locals. These relationships through history is what Mao calls an "abnormal" relationship between the Russian majority nationality, and the minority nationalities of the USSR. It wasn't enough to address the abnormal relationship with words alone, i.e. nominally autonomous regions, but through actions (decolonization), economic sovereignty as well as "paying back" the wealth stolen, and cleaning up the scars of extraction. The USSR was trying this stuff but by Khrushchev's time progress was halted on addressing these things.
