既要革命,就要有一个革命的党。没有一个革命的党,没有一个按照马克思列宁主义的革命理论和革命风格建立起来的革命党,就不可能领导工人阶级和广大人民群众战胜帝国主义及其走狗。

  • WSJ: China Sent 1,300 Missile and Drone Shipments to Iran

    The Wall Street Journal has reported that Chinese entities and companies sent approximately 1,300 shipments containing components suitable for drone production and missile guidance systems to the Islamic Republic’s Ministry of Defense during the first six months of 2026.

    According to the report published by The Wall Street Journal, the newspaper analyzed Iranian customs data spanning from January 1 through the end of June 2026. As the Journal detailed:

    “Chinese entities sent around 1,300 shipments containing ‘dual-use’ components and chemical compounds to Iran’s Defense Ministry through the end of June…”

    “Records covering January 2025 through June 2026 show thousands of shipments to Iran’s defense ministry and Iranian companies. They included GPS tracking equipment, electric motors and aircraft-engine components.”

    The recorded consignments consisted of “dual-use” parts, a designation referring to goods and technologies with both civilian and military applications. Many of these shipments carried references to Article 119 of Iranian customs regulations, which provides tariff exemptions for defense imports. Kate Koren, deputy director of the economics program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), noted to the Journal that “some of the components being traded are known to be used in Iran’s Shahed drones.”

    According to the Journal, a Chinese cargo aircraft landed in Tehran on the very day a temporary ceasefire took effect between the Islamic Republic and the United States, carrying electronics for Iran’s Ministry of Defense:

    “On the very day the truce was signed, a Chinese aircraft landed in Tehran carrying electronics for Iran’s ministry of defense…”

    Two days later, more than a dozen additional shipments containing drone-capable parts, valued at over $6 million, arrived in Iran. The Wall Street Journal also reported a sharp surge in flights operated by Mahan Air, a carrier under U.S. sanctions. Flight-tracking data showed that Mahan Air increased its flights from Chinese cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou to Tehran from four per week in early March to about 27 per week by late April, establishing a critical supply route for Tehran’s military efforts.

    This report comes as Chinese President Xi Jinping travels to Washington for a summit with U.S. President Donald Trump, where Beijing’s relationship with Tehran and its role in supplying Iran’s military and economy are expected to loom over the talks.

    Previously, reports indicated that Iranian vessels set sail from China’s Gaolan Port carrying shipments of chemical precursors, including sodium perchlorate, which can be used to make solid-fuel propellant for ballistic missiles.

    China has denied selling weapons to the Islamic Republic, maintaining that it enforces strict export controls on dual-use items. As noted in the coverage:

    “China has said that it strictly controls exports of dual-use goods and that it rejects unilateral US sanctions on trade with Iran.”

    Simultaneously, Beijing considers U.S. sanctions against Iran to be “unilateral and illegal” and does not consider itself bound by them.

  • none of the High Command got away with it.

    If only that were true

    Johann von Kielmansegg, General Staff officer to the High Command of the Wehrmacht, 1942-44, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1967-68.

    Some more names I found:

    – Sturmführer Dr. Eberhard Taubert worked with Goebbels in the Nazi Ministry of Propaganda where he was responsible for designing the yellow badge for Jews. After the war, he eventually became an adviser to ex-Nazi Franz Josef Strauss, German Minister of Defence from 1956-62, and was assigned by Strauss to NATO’s “Psychological Warfare Department” .

    – Nazi Admiral and U-Boat commander Friedrich Guggenberger, whose U-boat sank 17 allied ships, later served as Deputy Chief of Staff in the NATO command Armed Forces North (AFNORTH) 1968-72.

    – Johannes Steinhoff, a Luftwaffe fighter pilot, was made Chairman of the NATO Military Committee 1971-74, holding other NATO positions prior to that.

    – Ernst Ferber, a major in the Wehrmacht, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1973-75.

    – Karl Schnell, First General Staff officer of the LXXVI Panzer Corps, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1975-77.

    – Franz Joseph Schulze, Chief of the Third Battery of the Flak Storm Regiment 241, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1977-79.

    – Ferdinand von Senger und Etterline, Lieutenant of the 24th Panzer Division of the German Sixth Army, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1979-83.

    And this is all just NATO not to mind other positions of power such as:

    — West German Chief of Staff Hans Globke, Globke drafted the legal commentary on the 1935 Nuremberg laws, legalising the exclusion of Jews from public life, the theft of their assets and opening the door to their eventual murder. It was Globke’s idea to put a “J” in every Jewish citizen’s identity papers, alongside their new middle names: “Israel” for men, “Sara” for women. Globke’s fingerprints were also on laws outlawing “racial disgrace” – relations between Jews and “Aryans”. After the war, Globke confessed that he knew all about the Shoah, the industrialised murder of European Jews.

    — Kurt Georg Kiesinger, served as the chancellor of West Germany from 1 December 1966 to 21 October 1969. Before he became chancellor, he served as Minister-President of Baden-Württemberg from 1958 to 1966 and as President of the Bundesrat from 1962 to 1963. He was chairman of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) from 1967 to 1971. In 1940 he was appointed to the broadcast policy department of the Foreign Office by Joachim von Ribbentrop, and became deputy head of the broadcasting and propaganda departments in 1942.

    — The brutal Butcher of Lyon, notorious Nazi Klaus Barbie spent the Second World War torturing children and sending whole families to the death camps. But when the conflict ended, the Gestapo captain didn’t face instant arrest and swift justice. Instead, the US allowed him to start a new life as a CIA spy, smuggling him into Bolivia where he helped hunt and kill the revolutionary Che Guevara among other atrocities.

    — General Reinhard Gehlen, the German army’s intelligence chief for the Eastern Front during World War II. At the end of the war, Gehlen established a close relationship with the U.S. and successfully maintained his intelligence network (it ultimately became the West German BND) even though he employed numerous former Nazis and known war criminals.

    And also on Eichmann specifically:

    The CIA concealed the whereabouts of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in the 1950s for fear he might expose undercover anticommunist efforts in West Germany, according to documents released


  • Dude, tried to give this a second chance, but you fucks are just regurgitating AI while accusing me of doing the same, with no fucking point.

    Entirely untrue but if it makes you feel better about your self you can feel free to believe it. Also no one accused you of using ai? Are you hallucinating? You were accused of being arrogant, unintelligent and there was an implication of you being annasshole (which I feel is quite accurate given the crash out) nothing about ai that’s all you.

    Spend all the money that you would inherit to pretend to be smart. Fuck all social media.

    This is just a nonsense random non sequitur.

    In reality, I am actually a rather nice guy, and I buy dinners for the homeless.

    Hard to believe given you’ve been nothing but artogant and an asshole this entire time, but even if true so what? Do you want a standing ovation for doing the bare minimum of allegedly having human decency?

    This was supposed to be a network that would protect against bots. And now we have meat puppets

    More dehumanising nonsense fantasies so you can shield yourself from the fact that you are as unintelligent as you are arrogant.







  • Where are you from?

    I invite you to take a guess given the obvious context clues.

    I am only speaking to what the manifesto was proposing and nothing more.

    You’re speaking to what you imagined it was proposing not at all what it actually proposed not to mind when you take into account the wider writings of both Marx and Engels (as is necessary to truly understand the pamphlet that the manifesto is) both consistently differentiate between the state as an instrument of class rule and what we would call the government as an institution providing a necessary function of administration in advanced societies.

    While the merely repressive organs of the old governmental power were to be amputated, its legitimate functions were to be wrested from an authority usurping pre-eminence over society itself, and restored to the responsible agents of society itself."

    — The Civil War in France

    State interference in social relations becomes, in one domain after another, superfluous, and then dies out of itself; the government of persons is replaced by the administration of things, and by the conduct of processes of production. The state is not ‘abolished’. It dies out.

    — Anti Duhring

    I am also certain that you can provide nothing to back up the one world government claim (unless you choose to cherry pick and misinterpret harder than an evangelical) as it is simply not a position that Marx Engels or even any later Marxists have ever advocated for.


  • Truly don’t understand why we went to Lemmy to get away from pointless internet warrior kids/idiots and bots,

    I don’t know about you but I came to Lemmy because my friend recommended the communist side of it as an interesting place to practice English without the racial abuse of non self hating Chinese that is normalised on Reddit and RedditorLemmy.

    When now we have pointless internet warrior kids accusing people of being bots.

    Sorry to hear that but I did no such thing I simply found your comment to be far too wrong and completely divorced from the material at hand for how confidently you were saying it.

    Do you have a fucking punching bag, because I am not it. Why write so much to literally say nothing? Is your life so bleak?

    I think I said the main things that were on my mind when I saw your comment. Honestly I don’t even know where to begin to try explain this to you given that you didn’t seem to be able to grasp such a base concept as the difference between the state and government not toind the complete strawman invention of your mind of the one world government idea or complete lack of understanding of the USSR and it’s many achievements compared to where it actually had issues.



  • The entire system depends on building a one world government with the hopes that the dictator of the proletariat, once they gain world domination, will simply step down and destroy government once and for all.

    The fact you have such a shallow understanding of the material as to have this be part of your takeaway of what Marxists advocate for while speaking with such unearned confidence truly boggles the mind. A worse grasp of the material than your average Chinese school child. Not to mind the pure mind numbing nonsense of the rest of this word vomit.




  • If you’re not going to engage even with academic papers provided and continue to bang your head on an idiotic strawman of internal parties as opposed to the outside pressure which lead investing the spoils of plunder in buying off the proletariat at home such that socialism would remain fringe I think it’s best we leave this here. I thought Europeans were supposed to be more politically competent and capable of reasonable debate than Americans but perhaps that was simply a rumour.
