Will do that.

Thank you. Your reading list and the resources from Dessalines that you shared are quite cool.

Not a Chinese person, and I don’t really know much about their style, but if random guesses are ok:

It may have been turned off, due to the risk that politically motivated actors may use it to print out something and then use it for propaganda, saying that a Chinese AI has exposed the CPC n all?

Especially since the U S is a trade war with them and there has been usage of genocide propaganda^* against them?
* - Considering that the same people have no similar level of concern about Gaza

I think you should ask in some Chinese community. If not, maybe most of the answers would be similar to mine, guesses, which will mostly be our views rather than the fact whether the average Chinese person has info on their leaders.

Why would you burn oil rigs tho?

Wouldn’t you want them to be used more carefully, with proper pollution control?

Or was it near people’s homes, who were getting health issues?

Thank you

I’m from Kerala, India. We do have communist parties here. The Left front govt, with very significant communist party presence was elected into power here.

Searching for their content on youtube, I see that they do discuss the theoretical aspects. I think the parties here are focused more on the praxis aspect and only teach the Marxist ideology to party members and not supporters or people in associated orgs. The local elders in my area seeg

Internet searches are tricky, since non-English content is relatively less indexed/recommended. Have found some websites of theirs tho, like Chintha.in
If you know any resources related to Kerala/India, please do share them

Cool. I remember following Dessalines on youtube for audiobooks. Are they available there too?

Also, I read/listened some of the books that you recommended. Probably didn’t understand or remember it all, but it was useful.

Thank you.

Tired to read Capital. It seems tricky/weird for me.
I’m not a native speaker of English. So maybe that too.

Is there any summarised Intro to Marxist Theory/ Dialectical Materialism book, that is relatively more recent(and freely available on the net)?

Do you want a state massacre of leftists?

I don’t know much of American history, but have heard of McCarthyism n all. They purged leftists based on doubts.
If one tried to take out someone who is now an elected leader, then they’d be doing the stuff they did in Indonesia and Guatemala, mass killings.

I have heard of Tankie.tube

Have only seen the official launch video
https://tankie.tube/w/qeBRT22NNfQvzoU82yrajg
It seems quite good

Maybe the ones with bras are able to allure more people?

Your response was cool

Is there more context?
Seems interesting

Even if the ends are the same, how it reaches there and how long it takes to reach there are also concerns

What about the intermediate results?

True
State violence should not be validated

A recent mainstream example would be the Jan 6 protests in USAmerica. The protest about concerns regarding the legitamacy of the USA’s elections was maligned as domestic terrorism and a coup-attempt by some, right?
A protestor got fatally shot and killed by the state appartus.

CW: Suicide
4 police officers involved who were involved in the suppression took their own lives too. Likely due to strain they faced from the state appartus.

Whether peaceful protests are allowed is a basic litmus for any modern democracy. All these incidents show how democratic checks and balances are required to discourage the violent arm of the state.

Would this be an example of how it could be seen in different pov’s?

I do oppose state violence, but I doubt Western narratives too.

In my case, it would be that

1. Stalin lived for a few more years
2. A leftist front would get elected to form the central govt in India
3. Land and Education reform happens in all states, while ensuring that superstition is reduced and the consitutional duty of developing Scientific temper is given a bit more focus

Wasn’t Poland at the time helping the Nazis, when they annexed Czechoslovakia in 1938?
They probably mistook that the Nazis would have left them alone, while they themselves had no issue with invading Czechoslovakia.

Isn’t it carcinogenic?

Eh?

Yes, I think I am bit more conscious about it

Though, I do live in India and our footpaths may have random unvaccinated/undomesticated animals walking/sleeping on them etc.

Recently saw news of a boy catching rabies
https://www.msn.com/en-in/health/health-news/kerala-11-year-old-boy-dies-of-rabies-weeks-after-stray-dog-attack-in-alappuzha/ar-AA1yMUnV

Although I know that rabies would not be passed along via an earbud n all, my general caution has been heightened

Thank you
