Several universities across the USA and the world are currently protesting pro-Israel administration and politics. This will be a recurring theme as the days and weeks go by with no end in sight. Police brutality and arrests are going to reach an all-time and shills will continue to justify the expanding police state while turning a blind eye on innocent protesters being abused and arrested.

Comrades, does it ever make you sick how confusing things are and how fast things are moving? Just 6 years ago I assumed anyone who said "Zogbot" was the type of loser who had a username like kekistan1488 and now i have to assume in good faith it's probably a pro-palestine comrade using cringe language. Just 6 years ago the debate was whether Amerikkka could be made better through electing reformist succdems, now the whole empire seems to be unraveling at marvelous speed. The old world is dying, and the new world is struggling to be born. Now is the time of monsters. There are so many new comrades, but they are so bright eyed and bushy tailed, enthusiastic and zealous, but undisciplined in both theory and practice. The media slanders and lies and mixes us up with rightoid neo nazis on purpose. I don't know how I'll even begin to explain these tumultous years to my daughter when she is old enough. I'll never trust a textbook to cover this period of history.

>Why did a bandit like you show up?
I ( >>1842255 ) have been here since 2019, I am a Marxist. I am an active member of a major communist org and supply insider information to help my union. In fact, I'm visible in televised footage of Palestine rallies, including unlawful rallies, in my country. The only way one could consider me 'not a leftist' is to claim the concept of 'left' is nonsense in itself.

One of the funnier obscure things about this situation is that the French have been shitting and farting about what appears to be a non-existent red-green-brown alliance for decades. So the west in its blundering pigheaded incompetence basically forces them all together like they did with Russia, China and Iran.

What we're seeing domestically is now like what we're seeing internationally, where western governments have made themselves the prime antagonist of a bunch of ideologically, ethnically and religiously disparate groups to the point that they have been given a unifying common enemy that sees these Zionist governments as the highest priority.

A lot of the language suggests that people are at least cribbing notes from a bunch of them, but the actual organizations seem to be absent though their members may be present. The numbers of communists, Nazis and jihadists are pretty thin realistically, so it makes sense you get ideological soup as soon as a large bunch of apolitical people become activated.
The Houthis are a good example of this broad anti-western ideology that has matured since they absorbed everyone else in Yemen basically, including a lot of the communists so you will sometimes see stuff like Fanon quoted in their propaganda. It's also not unheard of to find communist Houthis.

uyghas don't read shit and suffer from terminal larp syndrome.
In current reality, religion is dead or at best dying. The current material conditions simply don't push people towards mythological explanations of the world, which is why "evangelical conservatives" and "liberation theology" exist in the first place. People who already are religious clearly understand that religion doesn't do a good job of explaining the world. Back when religion made sense, there were no "Christian communists" - there were quakers, hussites, and others. The Pope is trying to save religion by pandering to socialists in Latin America, for god's sake.
Wicca is a funny larp, as are all religions like it. The role of religion was taken over by naked liberal idealism (which grew directly out of Christianity) during the Enlightenment. You personally are liberal idealists, by the way. This is the correct description of people who say shit like "abrahamism is a death cult".

>explanations of the world
Apples and oranges. Natural gods should not be conflated with world gods nor with natural science. Their roles in society are totally different.
Other societies' cosmologies do not necessarily say much about the origins of material objects or with the sort of explanatory rigor that positivists would like history to have. In fact, early religion-bureaucracies were not concerned very much with useful knowledge relative to things on Earth, so much as with metaphysical names, relations, and successions. So with the Kwakiutl cosmology, a collection of episodic encounters with the spirit world by which the tribe historically gained access to natural or (mostly) cultural properties, almost all well in the past, or the Christian cosmology which doesn't explain any natural forces, and well before positivist science existed to displace it.
Even then, world-religions don't purport to explain what is when there's world-history for that, so much as they propose to create what isn't. They place the adherent into a half-finished story (or dance, or dream) and oblige the believer to extend it, through commitment to the religion's defined relations to action (value). People's relation with natural gods, on the other hand, was performative and transactional, not normative and moral. Nature gods did not presume general command of human affairs, which was the sole business of the king (which total command only really extended about 100-200m from his person, and dropped off rapidly thereafter). Those not looking to enhance their love or riches, or had not recently come into a bounty thereof, weren't bound to render service unto Venus, but good luck being seen by her when she comes around to Earth to distribute her blessings.
