Israel isn’t going to last forever, the illusion of its indestructability has been destroyed and the resistance’s bravery and courage in resisting the entity are known around the world. Palestinians will not cease until Palestine is free, and Israel is going to crumble as more settlers flee and investments dry up.
The world doesn’t fear Russia, though, the world fears the west. It’s the west that fears Russia, and is harvesting Ukraine for resources and racking them up with debt for hand-me-down surplus to support the far-right Banderites in Kiev ethnic cleansing the Donbass region. The Ukrainian people increasingly want peace over war, not to fight to the last Ukrainian, it’s the Banderites that want to sacrifice Ukrainain people while they hide from the frontlines.

Godspeed, comrade 🫡
Awesome! I’d love to learn it too for that reason, I just have other languages that are a higher priority for me.
There’s so much that was never translated, as you of course know.
I do want to eventually learn Russian, but I’m already learning a second language and Spanish will be my third. Maybe Mandarin as my fourth. Russian as fifth? Doubt I’ll get that far, sadly.
It’s true, though. The various SSRs and SFSRs had national autonomy while being part of an internationalist socialist economy.
The PRC is not helping the US and Israel disarm the resistance. China has affirmed that Palestinians must control Palestine in their own state, and served as a vital mediator for the 2024 Beijing Declaration, where Fatah and Hamas were brought closer together and the resistance as a whole in Palestine came together to collaborate more closely, alongside China. In the 2024 Beijing Declaration, which China was a core mediator for, it was declared that the resistance must not be disarmed.
China has consistently only ever veto’d at the security council if it is willing to intervene millitarily in order to protect the veto’d outcome. The PRC has veto’d sanctions on the DPRK, and has enforced that veto by increasing trade with the DPRK. The US Empire has never been stopped by a veto, such as when it was determined to stop shipping arms to Haiti, which the US subverted. China vetoing the UNSC declaration on Palestine would mean mobilizing its army to directly prevent the US’s plans for the region.
If we look at how resistance orgs are responding, they aren’t blaming China. Instead, they have similar analysis to China, that is that the plan itself is unworkable and that they cannot implement it in the first place. China also adhered its best to both the PLO, who endorsed TRUST, and Hamas, the PFLP, etc that oppose TRUST.
Personally, I would rather China take a more millitant anti-imperialist stance than their current passive stance. There’s good reason to believe this will be the case in the future, as younger generations in China are more millitant and more overwhelmingly pro-Palestine. However, I don’t confuse imperfect allies for enemies, which is the western-leftist mistake you’ve fallen for. You did the same with Hexbear, calling them “transzionist” and claiming they ban critique of contrapoints because she’s trans. The reality is that Hexbear is anti-zionist and pro-trans, and regularly clowns on contrapoints for her awful liberalism.
China is contributing to a multi-polar world. China’s position in the global stage facilitates south-south trade, which bypasses unequal exchange, where the global north maintains monopolies on high tech industries so as to consistently charge monopoly prices in exchange with the global south. China charges non-monopoly prices, and this is why exchange with China, alongside the rise of the Belt and Road Initiative, has resulted in dramatic development in African and Latin American countries. This is ultimately the single greatest contributor to the downfall of imperialism globally, and is why right now there is such a large cold war with China.
Your confusion of imperfect allies with enemies is why the western left has continued to fail to meaningfully challenge the status quo. Jones Manoel was correct in Western Marxism Loves Purity and Martyrdom, But Not Real Revolution. Western leftists do the work of the US Empire by making the same mistakes you’ve been making with respect to China, thereby sabotaging allies and making the efforts of the ones actually arming, facilitating, and committing the genocide easier.
TL;DR join an org. Having a practical outlet to test theory to practice, and directly organize against arming and supporting Israel, is a much better use of your time. It will also help you form a more correct understanding of anti-imperialist struggle.
This is expressly being pushed by the US state department to undermine a popularly supported progressive leader. This is a fascist coup attempt:
Spending more doesn’t translate to actual industrial capacity. Why announce what you do?
No, Russia has tools like Oreshnik that just don’t make sense to use against Ukraine at scale.
China is socialist, the large firms and key industries are publicly owned, and the working class is in control. It’s left wing. They have markets, but that doesn’t make them a “hybrid,” it just means they are at the developing stage of socialism.
The EU is a cabal of imperialist countries. All of the niceties in the EU are founded primarily off the backs of exploiting the global south. Taking a firm stance against imperialism requires that the EU essentially give up its super-profits.
It wouldn’t. Russia is right wing, and so is the EU.
Definitionally, yes. The EU and NATO are right-wing, imperialist coalitions that expropriate vast sums of wealth from the global south. All of them are dictatorships of capital.
Yes, it’s a pro-EU, pro-NATO source.
Russia isn’t going to do whatever you personally want them to, especially when they are on track to get all of their stated goals accomplished. “Should” doesn’t mean anything.
Further, more sources on the west sabotaging peace talks:
Linking a right-wing website trying to depict everything as kremlin propaganda doesn’t overtake the facts.
It isn’t disinformation, it’s proven fact. You can’t just say reality doesn’t exist and that Russia is going to turn around while they are winning, life is not a marvel movie.
They were sabotaged. Ukraine was ready to make concessions, but the UK and US stepped in and said no. These were absolutely peace talks, as they would have ended the conflict.
I know full-well how to spot propaganda, anything trying to convince someone of something is propaganda. Reading through bias and analyzing the source facts is necessary.
And Ukraine is stalling the inevitable, when all of this could have been avoided had peace talks not been sabotaged months into the war by the US and UK.
This seems more based on capitalist-realism than on practical analysis. The US Empire is on its way out, and with it will go Israel.
