Dredging of Puerto Rico port begins as environmentalists warn of threat
In August 2022, the Arizona-based nonprofit Center for Biological Diversity filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. government, saying the project threatens to destroy corals and seagrass beds and suck up turtles and other marine life. The lawsuit is pending at a U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., with a hearing last held in January.

Company helping immigrants in detention ordered to pay $811M+ in lawsuit alleging deceptive tactics
The officials said the company promised to secure immigrants’ release on bond while their immigration claims were being processed but concealed and misrepresented the true nature and costs of its services. They said the company collected thousands of dollars in fees above the face value of the bonds and forced immigrants to wear painful ankle monitors.

Surpassing Goal, 47,000+ Wisconsin Democrats Vote 'Uninstructed' in Primary
Campaigners with Listen to Wisconsin had hoped they could convince 20,000 Democratic primary voters on Tuesday to select "uninstructed delegate" on their ballots to send the message to President Joe Biden that he can't yet count on their votes in the November general election due to his support for Israel's bombardment of Gaza. After organizing for less than a month, the campaign far surpassed its goal, with more than 47,800 people voting for the uninstructed option.

Argentine Communist Party: Milei’s chainsaw against the Argentine working class
On March 1, Javier Milei took advantage of his speech at the opening of the Ordinary Sessions of the Argentine Congress to put forward his line of adjustment and surrender, after the great defeat of the «Omnibus Law I», that officially was named Ley Bases y Puntos de Partida para la Libertad de los Argentinos, but was dubbed «Omnibus Law I» due to the numerous areas on which it was intended to legislate. Following the same line as Sergio Massa, his electoral rival ─but class partner─, Milei proposed a «great national agreement»; a new «social contract» ─as he was dynamiting bridges between possible allies─ whose purpose is to guarantee governability and that the different bourgeois factions unite around their adjustment, surrender and repression projects. That is why he is relaunching the «Omnibus Law II», the supposed battery of «anti-caste» measures and the so-called «May Pact», a 10-point agreement which, according to the president, would establish «the principles of the new Argentine economic order». However, these are nothing more than anti-worker, anti-popular and openly surrenderist measures. One more step in their offensive against the Argentine proletariat.

The Supreme Court May Give Us Another 2008 Financial Crisis
The United States Supreme Court will soon decide on a case that could decimate consumer protections against abusive banking practices — potentially allowing banks to disregard state laws meant to prevent the kind of predatory lending that led to the 2008 financial crisis. Legal experts say that the case, Cantero v. Bank of America, could invalidate a host of state laws that protect people from predatory lending, junk fees, and other financial scams. The case is ostensibly about a New York statute that forces banks to pay interest to consumers on certain mortgage accounts — but big banks are fighting for the court to rule they are exempt from that law and many others in states across America. The banking lobby has thrown its weight behind the case alongside corporate-backed conservative legal groups and the US Chamber of Commerce, a powerful business trade groPost too long.

Christianity condones slavery just as much as Islam does.
According to Paul,
>Bondservants, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. For the wrongdoer will be paid back for the wrong he has done, and there is no partiality.
Yes, Christianity says to treat your slaves and bondservants nicely, but every slavemaster thinks they treat the slaves justly or that the slaves are better off in slavery.

>Do you think they'll ever have a revolution?
Some Arab intellects think so.
At least they think that Dubai will have its secession due to its huge population of foreigners.
The only thing that makes it a bit harder for a revolution due to the laws of how expats see themselves as foreigners just here to work and go back, or work until they can move to Western countries. Most don't have the idea that they might stay and live there for their entire lives, and so they see it as an opportunity to make a better living than back home.
Also, there is enough racism among the mix of foreigners to make idpol be a vital tool against it.

However, you gotta look into the geopolitics and how the UAE is a vassal state of Western interests in the region. The UAR is whoring itself for the West to get any speck of recognition and admiration, it's quite nauseating to watch.

I dunno. Make up your own mind. Aren't you guys supposed to be the social scientists who can figure this stuff out? I'm being a jerk today, but it always comes up when Burger King tweets "gay rights" (which is cringe and doesn't mean anything) but what am I supposed to do about it? It's a dumb sideshow and probably 80% of gay people complain about it or know how transparently fake and performative that stuff is – it's the trad-workers who are falling for it more than the libs are. "Damn, Adidas really believes this." They use corporate PR as an excuse to call LGBT people degenerates. Like, ok. The trad-workerists then have to say that the emancipation of the proletariat from the chains of commodity society can only happen once we embrace straight up gay-panic politics Southern Baptist grandma style.

Capitalism has done this kind of thing for a long time. Back in the 90s the oil companies started "greenwashing," trying to cultivate a environmentally friendly image. It's not like trying to stop climate change is some sellout position now. When Amazon says they are prioritizing the safety of their workers, do you also take this slop at face value with no contextualization or critical thought? That's Marxism, baby. Well, for some people. You know, telling people what to think and not how to think.

Not always, Benjamin Israeli and some conservatives in Europe and even in America during the 1800s supported things like health care, public infrastructure, etc. to improve the lives of workers, granted these came from the angle of increasing profits for industry but I would still consider these things progressive for its time, and even now considering our backward neoliberal era.

OP I really think it's as simple as: some monkey brains just really just don't like things. There's an environment in which they'd feel most comfortable and are simply trying to craft that environment through philosophy or force. Some people REALLY don't like anything that they haven't been preconditioned to accept. If they were raised into a christain culture they want to maintain that, if they were raised in a muslim culture they'd be equally fine. Hell some liberals are probably crypto-conservatives: they were born in a liberal-area with a liberal family so that's simply the environment they adapted to; it's why they push against leftism as "too far".

>when the 32 county Irish socialist republic is established
It won't be, not in the foreseeable future, and that is preferable. It does no good to anyone to force a people (in the north of Ireland), who as a majority don't want to be part of a country, to be a part of that country. The status quo, with a power-sharing Stormont, international cooperation between Britain and Rep. Ireland, and disarmed paramilitaries, would be overthrown by forced reunification, which would have the streets burning.

'Possible' is probably the wrong word. It's been shown possible to rehabilitate KKK members, and children of cult members and neo-Nazi compound owners (Kelvin Pierce).
But whether it is a difficult struggle or whether it can be achieved as scale, that might be another problem.

In an understandably limited respect, loyalist workers are intensely class conscious–historically even more so than today, of course. Industries like linenmaking and shipbuilding were concentrated in the north, and northern Irish workers have watched the south transformed from an agrarian reactionary Catholic nightmare into a plastic neoliberal shithole with nary an industrial revolution in between. On this basis, a more appropriate question would be: What possible class consciousness has ever existed in Ireland, outside of the northern workers? The UWC strike could not have succeeded without a high degree of class consciousness. Likewise, there's a reason the most substantial document to emerge from the far left in Ireland was the Workers Party's "The Irish Industrial Revolution"–which, rather than a retrospective look at the industrial revolution on the island, was a carefully considered program for its eventual implementation.

Deindustrialisation has devastated loyalist communities just the same as their counterparts in the north of England. Protestant workers traditionally left school early, got apprenticeships, and learnt on the job. Barred from the same kind of jobs, Catholic families put emphasis on education–intellectual habits that have seen Catholic kids excel, whereas the death of the mills, shipyards, tobacco factories, breweries that were the lifeblood of communities like Sandy Row have left nothing in their wake. Yet I return to estates like that when I go home and I still see greater levels of class consciousness, discipline and autonomous cultural activity than I see in the grim wastelands of the English midlands. Kids learn to march, learn to play the flute or the drum or the bagpipes, build architectural marvels and burn effigies of their ancient enemies every summer. Reactionary, certainly, but there's a life to working class estates back home that's entirely absent across the Irish sea. And they take no little pleasure in watching their bonfires smoke out the luxury apartments that encroach on the outskirts.

Prior to the Good Friday Agreement, expressions of class consciousness in the loyalist community took interesting political forms. (Morbid forms, for sure–like the UWC strike, class consciousness expressed by a 'planted' working class naturally expresses itself morbidly. I am sure the same exists among Israeli workers.)

I agree with the first part anon, but I don't believe necessarily the comparison is the same- from my understanding Russia believes Ukraine has always been historically Russian and is simply a breakaway state, where as "Angoland" never believed that this nation of Celtics was somehow their ancestral home, but instead a colony for the Crown. Even Northern Ireland has origins as a settler colony.

The mediterraneans saw northern europeans and steppe people as low autism score subhumans that poop in the streets, live in mudhuts and have sex with their horses (and are of course gay because they ride their horsies too much, teehee), just like you see the other peoples of the world.

<Those swarthy Arabs will never conquer the Middle East, Iran, Central Asia, North-West India, Indonesia with their language and religion!

History repeats itself. This is the end times of 500 years of european domination, before that other peoples dominated this world. Give way, anything else is reactionary and will be swiftly defeated in the coming centuries.

I'm sure they did, but they were wrong, they were just other white people living in colder areas which were not suitable for agriculture at the time. l hope you don't think i'm a sperg when l say this but even in prehistory, europeans really punched against our weight in worldwide influence. The country with the most people in the world today speaks a language that comes from white bronze age invaders who then proceeded to crreate a caste system a few hundred years later where the whitest of society dominated it. This idea that every people have their turn in the spotlight is just not true

I'm having a lot of trouble trying to understand what you are saying. Are you saying that the black communist who was disgusted by how english people were not hard enough since they didn't live in a hellhole? What exactly does pampered passivity mean here? Is it the virtues of living in a functioning society? Do we need mandatory bouts in the thunderdome for every citizen? You're identifying problems without really connecting the problems with the things you're talking about. Can you explain what spiritual problems are you talking about too, like do you mean the mindset of white people or something?

White people didn't submit to liberalism, we just allowed liberalism to do its thing and liberalise. I'm not against liberalism and i'm not a fascist, and tying liberalism with our own decadence seems very wrong. We are not decadent people, and in the past we were more decadent than what we are right now. In the past we killed each other more, raped more, oppressed more, constantly making decisions with lead poisoning etc. Only good thing was we had higher T. Do you mind specifically telling me which rising powers are going to overtake western powers like america for example? Could you also paint me a picture of how an alliance of based races are going to coexist in a fascist nation? I'm sure u know how many spergy white identitarians exist out there, as well as fascists, but black AFUN tier people are even worse

>Are you saying that the black communist who was disgusted by how english people were not hard enough since they didn't live in a hellhole?
Yes, to put it succinctly. But "hellhole" here is a loaded term. The basic point is that even in domination, races can have mutual self-relation, where in a liberal society, people live by the rule of property and exclusion, not by any holistic principle of belonging. This happened after the american slaves were "liberated" too, where they were just left in the wilderness, and of course, so many went back to their masters. I'm not saying we necessarily need "masters", but we need a self-conception of a society; an identity.
>Can you explain what spiritual problems are you talking about too, like do you mean the mindset of white people or something?
Yes. While other peoples are developing a sense of political subjectivity by simulating their histories, whites have become nihilistic and cowardly. Complacent.
>In the past we killed each other more, raped more, oppressed more, constantly making decisions with lead poisoning etc.
Theres nothing wrong with these things in principle. Its the program of universal peace that makes us so hopeless. We are still violent, but we externalise it to imperialist ventures. It would be good to turn that tyranny inwardly so we are fashioned into the order we impress on the world.
>Could you also paint me a picture of how an alliance of based races are going to coexist in a fascist nation? I'm sure u know how many spergy white identitarians exist out there, as well as fascists, but black AFUN tier people are even worse
Think of a military. You have all races there who are made to conform to a common excellence. Thats my vision. Think of our artists today. We have all races making great things. Its already in process, this "aristocratic" class interest.
Like i say, the wignats are peasants, they like their trailer parks segregated. But a NATION must be built on higher causes. Think though of the bourgeois concerns about blacks. They say its about crime; its about protecting property. Its not an ontological discrimination, but a civil one.

Freight railroads must keep 2-person crews, according to new federal rule 2 years in the making
There has been intense focus on railroad safety since a fiery February 2023 derailment in Ohio, but few significant changes have been made apart from steps the railroads pledged to take themselves and the agreements they made to provide paid sick time to nearly all workers. Such changes include adding hundreds more trackside detectors and tweaking how to respond to alerts from them. A railroad safety bill proposed in response to the derailment has stalled in Congress.

Biden is still the best US president Israel could wish for
United States President Ronald Reagan’s order to Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin to put an end to his “holocaust” in Lebanon is perhaps the best-known political anecdote from Israel’s 1982 invasion. Less known, however, is the enthusiastic defence for that very same “military operation” – dubbed “Operation Peace for the Galilee” – offered by a young democratic senator at a private meeting where Begin was being grilled by US lawmakers over Israel’s disproportionate use of force. According to Begin, 40-year-old Delaware Senator Joe Biden delivered “a very impassioned speech” in support of Israel during a closed Foreign Policy Committee meeting in Washington, DC and said “he would go even further than Israel” and “forcefully fend off anyone who sought to invade his country, even if that meant killing women or children”. Begin, a former leader of the Irgun, the notorious armed group that carried out some of the worst acts of ethnic cleansing during the creation of the state of Israel, including the 1948 Deir Yassin massacre, was by his own account stunned by Biden’s chutzpah. “I disassociated myself from these remarks,” Begin later toldPost too long.
