Like Israel is going to give a fuck. Stupid decision making an athlete defect to another country for no reason. Complete shoot yourself in the foot move.
The 2021 National Defense Act gives the gov. power to exclude funding to Universities that host even the most simple of organizations like the Confucius Institute, so.. Desperately clinging to convince people China is bad by doing whatever they can. Frustrating for sure.
I'm not here to tell you to join any particular political organ.. was just including it to point to my relationship in regards to the bigger picture. And at no point did I imply that colonial contradictions don't exist either.. just simply a venting of the constant futility and negativity on the subject. Thanks for contributing your thoughts :)
I may have been to rosy with my including of the CPUSA in my original post. I was more just including it as to my relationship with it.
This wasn't really meant to be some glaring spotlight on how great everything is now and that everyone should shut the fuck up and just tow the line. Rather it was meant to try and fight the constant futility and negativity I see when it comes to the potential of organizing in the US. Is everything where it needs to be? No. Is the CPUSA the most principled and disciplined Marxist Leninist institution? No, they release plenty of dogshit and I would know as I read People's World constantly and listen to the Co-Chairs. But is it still possible? Absolutely, we just have a harder road ahead. That's all.
Thanks for contributing to this discussion :)
I'm sorry you feel that way and my intention was not to reduce any shortcomings or problems people may/do have with the communist movement in the US. I hope you also didn't feel I was attempting to reduce the problems we face to a simple 'class revolution'.. Nothing is that simple as we both know. This was just simply me venting my thoughts and hopefulness/pragmatism.
I do know however that you are obviously not alone in your way of thinking and hope that in time, through external forces such as black and other minority liberation and social struggles as well as internal evolution and reaction to those struggles that the party and the movement proper is able to regain the hope of those who have lost it (And by that I do not mean they will see that white majority CPUSA as their savior.. rather it is able to evolve and adapt to be the multi-racial, anti-settler force that it will need to be to resolve these issues).
Here is primarily where Mr. Norton is sourcing everything from if you are all interested.
Some other interesting notes:
- Majority support Russia as the most 'trustworthy foreign actor', this includes China
- Majority support military junta staying in power, separate pluralities for 'an extended period' and 'until new elections are held'. 54% do not want military intervention from ECOWAS
- Data is from 'Premise data'. a crowdsourced (??) polling aggregate from users in various countries. https://www.premise.com/why-premise/
- Typical 'new and amazing breakthrough company' bullshit lingo aside, they seem to just have a ready crowd of 'volunteers' in various places that they can send questions to at any time, idk if they posted anything about demographics or specific polling data as I can't find the poll itself.
https://tass.com/world/1658013 This outlet claims that 'The poll was conducted among highly educated male citizens, 62% of whom were residents of the capital.'
On reddit, the article received a few comments about how Africans dont want democracy and then was deleted on /r/worldnews.
That's essentially what I've found on this specific topic.
No, you misread the news article.. Niger is removing the terrorist army from their lands.
