It is so depressing when housing is a guaranteed right.
So many articles from liberal sources are like this and it is always frustrating. With the c*nadian ss member being the source of many recent examples.
I have done this for as long as I can remember.
Vijay Prashad perhaps, and his book Red Star Over the Third World.
I was just about to comment this. It is very similar. Ukraine is very economically and militarily dependent on the NATO imperialists, so it would be very easy to orchestrate regime change.
Especially when contrasted with what was posted today about China’s solar power developments.
Putin has broken into the White House and taken Joe Biden’s form.
Certified paper tiger moment.
Fr*nce has fallen. The croissants have been seized.
If a large marxist-leninist party does not exist, this may be the next best option given your cirumstances. You are also in the imperial core, so I think it would be very difficult to find a party that does not have at least some large issues in this regard… If we do not have the means to have our own organization yet, it would seem somewhat reductive to try to create one, given how much time and energy that requires.

Anuradha Ghandy’s book on feminist trends has been immensely useful for me in navigating a lot of idealistic tendencies which exist. Her statements regarding anarchist organizing particularly is something I think of often. It is a very short book, so it may be easier to go through as well.
And Vijay Prishad writes constantly. He is in a lot of leftist outlets being interviewed, or writing articles The books I can think of from him are Washington’s Bullets, and Red Star Over the Third World.
“Israel is alleged to be using internationally banned White Phosphorus bombs on Gaza. The use of this weapon in civilian areas is universally recognized as a war crime.
