To Confront Rising Neofascism, the Latin American Left Must Rediscover Itself - This dossier presents a broad overview of the Latin American far right’s political, economic, and cultural programmes and how the absence of a real left political project that secures better living conditions has thrown different fractions of the working class into the grip of neofascism.

Even in Palestine, the Birds Shall Return: The Thirty-First Newsletter (2024) - As the situation in Gaza worsens, Netanyahu was applauded for demanding more arms in Congress. In contrast, Beijing hosted Palestinian factions, pushing for unity and peace.

Venezuela Is a Marvellous Country in Motion: The Thirty-Second Newsletter (2024) - Venezuela’s opposition yet again cries fraud in the 28 July presidential but fails to provide evidence. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Chavistas, their frustrations grounded in the understanding that the US-hybrid war is the root of the crisis, take to the streets and chant no volverán: they [the oligarchy] will not return.

LA has the olympics in 2028, this was going to happen. Every Olympics the host city fucking destroys homeless people so the city looks nice for the cameras.

The Country of the Rust Belt and the Broken Road: The Thirtieth Newsletter (2024)

From the 1942 ‘American century’ to Trump’s ‘American carnage’, the US has shifted from a post-WW2 boom to decline, facing political divides, economic crisis, poverty, and social decay.

How Latin America Can Delink from Imperialism

This dossier explores the possibilities that the current crisis of global capitalism creates for sovereign regional development projects in Latin America and the Caribbean and the importance of South-South alliances in this struggle.

During the cold war, the anticommunist ideological framework could transform any data about existing communist societies into hostile evidence. If the Soviets refused to negotiate a point, they were intransigent and belligerent; if they appeared willing to make concessions, this was but a skillful ploy to put us off our guard. By opposing arms limitations, they would have demonstrated their aggressive intent; but when in fact they supported most armament treaties, it was because they were mendacious and manipulative. If the churches in the USSR were empty, this demonstrated that religion was suppressed; but if the churches were full, this meant the people were rejecting the regime’s atheistic ideology. If the workers went on strike (as happened on infrequent occasions), this was evidence of their alienation from the collectivist system; if they didn’t go on strike, this was because they were intimidated and lacked freedom. A scarcity of consumer goods demonstrated the failure of the economic system; an improvement in consumer supplies meant only that the leaders were attempting to placate a restive population and so maintain a firmer hold over them.

They can’t. Every single one of these libs keep saying they have sources but at most will link fucking wikipedia then say that anyone who disagrees just isn’t discussing things in “good faith” or whatever bullshit
