This is my opinion: War comes down to logistics. Russia has the manpower to win a war of attrition against Ukraine that will keep Putin popular enough to sustain his dictatorship. Russia's military failed to take Kyiv with the initial invasion; I do believe that Putin, being a former KGB agent, knows that a "rally around the flag" effect will take place in Russia (to an extent) long as there are battegrounds.
SHOCKING NEWS: American ruling class discovers: money helps people survive in capitalism!!!
having a hard time finding other leninists here. your name suggests your familiar with the Haitian revolution. What about the Cuban Revolution of '59? ¡Siempre poder a la gente! ml
Hell yeah! I wish that the US would get serious about rail for passengers and freight
I agree; like in any workplace, the machinists follow the orders for inspection as provided by their bosses. the employees are doing their best, i would guess, because they know if they fuck up that people die.

The political, military and economic collapse of Russia many in the West had hoped for never materialised.

Houthi attacks are reaching boiling point – but a US-led military response would be a grave error | Mohamad Bazzi
I believe this section explains the commercial/ capitalist forces that are pushing the US and other imperial states towards a broader war in the Middle East: “The Houthi attacks forced many of the world’s largest shipping companies to reroute freighters away from the Red Sea and Suez Canal – a route that shortens the trip between Asia and Europe by thousands of miles. Instead, ships are being detoured around South Africa, which can lengthen a freighter’s journey by several weeks and increase fuel and labour costs. The attacks are also causing economic damage to Israel, whose Eilat port has lost 85% of its shipping activity since the Houthi campaign started.”
for any capitalist to admit "vulnerability" is hard enough on its own lol
Satire is Political Comedy
Jeffrey Epstein hosted a conference for some of the world's most prominent physicists in 2006, including Stephen Hawking and three Nobel Prize winners.
Just like Jonathan Swift, the Onion uses satire to expose the absurdity of reality.

Hell yeah this is super normal!
He is America's Mussolini. He just was too dumb to even get as far as Mussolini did
FIRST POST
Hi all
I am making this community as a place for myself to post interesting articles that I believe do a few things:
ONE: Provide insight into the power structures that maintain the current world order
TWO: Offer a unique POV on world affairs
THREE: Align with a "realist" / "materialist" view of political philosophy.
Have fun, be nice, etc.
para decir la verdad, no creo que haya muchas personas que aprenden español aquí
I believe that moderation should allow debate between views. Genocide, for better or worse, can be interpreted to mean different things by different people. More so, the word itself can be used/manipulated by people, or the definition changed to suit a specific narrative.

This war seems to do nothing but kill innocent women and children at this point. Israeli government seems hell-bent on destroying Gaza and its people. lmk what y'all think
