Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Are we sure that a revolutionary strategy developed in the context of WWI is relevant in 2024?
-The Defeat of One’s Own Government in the Imperialist War
Like, I don't think 2 or 3 are currently possible in the Russia Ukraine war, or most of the ongoing conflicts for that matter.
Well, you could argue a revolution will “stem” from the Ukraine-Russia conflict because it weakens the extremely counter-revolutionary US, and it is indeed impossible or extremely difficult for there to be any sort of mutual aid and cooperation between the two country’s working class movements, because of sanctions. Finally, it is a very reactionary war in general, literally headed by Nazis on one side and one of the people who helped collapse the USSR on the other, so this is seeming like a textbook case of proper use of revolutionary defeatism to me.
