I enjoy posting Soviet Art and propaganda posters. I love Marxism, and Marxism-Leninism in general.
He streams quite often, not continuously sadly. I think he said in some comment, that he’s afraid of being demonetized or something.
Makes sense then :). Not trying to be mean or ableist, it’s just hard for me to keep focus with the AI voices. Hopefully the AI based TTS-voices will get even better in the future!
The content of video itself is great, but I personally dislike the whole AI voice thing. It makes it a bit of a monotonous listening experience.
Who’s “Unlearning Economics”? Haven’t watched any of his videos. Watched plenty of BE’s, but his videos are very “hit or miss”. His newest take regarding Maduro seems very… Odd. I’m wondering if he’s doing alright.
Rest in peace, comrade Nguyen Phu Trong!
NYTimes is already out there wishing for a “less conservative communist leader”:
Mr. Trong represented a conservative Marxist-Leninist faction within the party, which includes another faction seen as more pragmatic and moderate. His death is likely to raise hopes in the West that a less doctrinaire leader could emerge. Mr. Trong, the only one in the 18-member Politburo who grew up during the Vietnam War, was a generation older than many of his peers.
Thank you comrade! <3
Unfortunately, I don’t know. But he has a lot of socials, and seems to be a nice bloke. You could probably send him a message. He’s been a tour guide for Koryo Tours, so he might have brought some books and resources back home with him :)
Hey, Danish guy here. It look like it’s advertisement placed on scaffolding. Apparently the ad companies don’t care about the laws/rules on advertisements on scaffolding, so the ad companies abuse that Copenhagen politicians haven’t enforced the rules regarding those ads.
In Copenhagen, the major has very recently commented on it, calling it “The Wild West” (link to article, use DeepL or other tools for translations).
So usually it’s not advertisements placed on a building itself, but on the scaffolds they use, when they’re renovating buildings, or doing roof-work/repairs, etc.
In Denmark the conflict in Russia/Ukraine has resulted in accepting American troops being stationed here, and of course a massive $20 billion USD investment in the military, over the next 10 years. The articles are in Danish, use a translator if you’re interested.
Denmark has for at least 70 years always said no to having American troops stationed in our country, so it’s quite a big move. Very few political parties have been criticizing it this time around, except for the most left-wing ones (obviously including our very-small communist party).

Ja, det var skønt at se så mange mennesker på gaden :)! Der kom mange flere, end hvad Politiet havde forventet 😅 . De var kun mødt 2 eller 3 patruljer op til at starte med.
Currently reading Inventing Reality: The Politics of News Media by Parenti :). A great book, but also somewhat depressing. Even though it’s quite old, it definitely still holds up. It kind of seems like nothing has changed.
The first few seasons are great. The 4th season is a bit of a mess. First it was cancelled, and later renewed, if I remember correctly.
What no theory does to a MF
You can read something China’s permanent representative to the United Nations, Zhang Jun, said here.
Basically saying to show restraint, to limit civilian casualties. And that the UN should push for a two-state solution.
Otherwise, you can follow the CPC’s official news paper, People’s Daily, and their “World” publishing here
And in general, Xinhua, the largest media organ in China: here. Also this and this.
Vimeo took the video down, obviously.
I uploaded it to LBRY/Odysee: https://odysee.com/abujamalpflpinterview:c
+1 for Sorry to Bother You. Just watched it today, fantastic watch. Didn’t expect anything else from good ol’ Boots Riley :)
I use the NewPipe fork with Sponsorblock as an optional feature. You can get NewPipe on F-Droid here and the fork with Sponsorblock here.
As a rule of thumb, I always check their respective GitHub pages for links, I don’t really trust the Google Store. There are too many spam duplicates of various apps, especially FOSS ones.
Yea. The entire comment section, and guy himself are going through all the DPRK-bad tropes.
Not really related, but I recently re-watched Avatar: The Last Airbender, the animated series. There is so much blatant anti-“communist” propaganda throughout. Like the whole “no war in Ba Sing Se” thing is clearly designed to mimic “communist brainwashing”, Stasi and everything related to bad/lib/western takes on non-western intelligence service(s). The same bad tropes are also repeated in Legend of Korra, with the equality movement, “the great uniter” and so on.
They’re all clearly written to be the bad guys, and everything they believe in is compared to the usual anti-communist propaganda - equality=bad, he’s actually a bad guy (liar) underneath the mask. The great uniter=bad, sends people to concentration camps while promising unity.
Again just reminds me of a classic joke:
