No, he’s not. Although he is not a bootlicker like his opponents (Vox party) who openly call for US intervention in Spain.

Housing speculation in Spain is a very serious problem that has not been addressed. The party he belongs to (PSOE - Partido Socialista Obrero Español) is a progressive party. Let’s remember that progressivism is a tool of liberalism, and therefore, also our enemy.

The fact that he has severed ties with Isntreal and strengthened trade relations with China does not automatically make him a comrade. At this point in history, cutting ties with Isntreal is the bare minimum, and strengthening relations with China is the most advantageous thing any non-sovereign nation (in practice, not on paper or in speech) can do.

Call me when Spain consists of a single Marxist-Leninist party and they start socializing major industries and, even more importantly, the land.

Sorry for the confusion. 😭

Yes, I also disagree with that part of the tweet that specifies they don’t wish harm on the ruling class. I would say more like “I do not wish harm only to the ruling American class…”

putting all of the blame on the people and siding with the ruling class.

Oh, no. Absolutely not. The American ruling class is still American people.

The alienation of the working class is not the product of a conscious will of the bourgeoisie.

you got me. <3

A reference to reality. There is no irony behind it.

The title is indeed a phrase said by Michael Parenti: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/11292604-communism-ladies-and-gentlemen-i-say-it-without-flinching

One of my all-time favorite works is “It Has Come to Pass” by Sergei Lukin. Imagine contemplating the opulence of the palace, knowing how the peasantry lived outside. Knowing that the revolution had triumphed and that it was time to build a future for everyone.

Some honorable mentions:

There’s a user named Fan Wennan who does concept art. It’s truly amazing:

“China: 2098”

Edit: some places where you can find socialist/communist/propaganda art:

• vietnampropaganda.com
• sovietposters.com
• soviet-art.ru
• chineseposters.net
• East German Visuals
• Regime Esthetics

Several come to mind, like the Soviet film Come and See, or some of Abbas Kiarostami’s films, but I’ll always recommend Amores Perros (2000) first. In the latter, the protagonist, Mexican actor Gael García Bernal, also plays Che Guevara in The Motorcycle Diaries (2004), a film that recounts Che’s motorcycle journey through Latin America, a journey that radicalized him and led him to study Marxism.

Free Iranian women from the oppression of studying at university, being doctors, scientists, and nuclear engineers, so they can dedicate themselves to OF!

While it’s not an answer to your question, I recommend Hepsima’s videos. He’s a Finnish guy who speaks in Mandarin with people from China. His videos motivate me to learn Mandarin, and maybe when I reach a more advanced level, I’ll also speak with people from China like him to practice.

You mentioned you’re studying something you don’t like, so what do you like? I think exploring this is extremely important. If there’s something you’d really like to do and have the potential to pursue professionally, you could eventually help your mom with some expenses. Unfortunately, depression and anxiety can ruin any motivation you have.

Sending you a hug.
