I think you should read the article. The title sounds a bit libby but the piece itself is quite good and has, i would say, overall a correct analysis.

The only thing i'd criticize is the title, because Trump is just a symptom, he's not what needs to be defeated but the entire system that put people like him, Biden, Harris, Obama, Bush, Clinton, etc. in positions of power. The corporate uniparty is what needs to be defeated, regardless whether it dresses itself in red or blue, whether it wears its fascism openly or disguises it with liberal platitudes.

Then again i suppose you could argue the title is clickbait to get more people to read the piece... Makes it something you could share with a liberal friend or relative and trick them into reading a real materialist analysis for once.

Same thing.

Fair enough. You're not wrong and your reaction is valid, but i guess i just don't like seeing strife in communist spaces. I think we can afford to have a little more patience for our comrades than we typically do with others online, make a conscious effort to be charitable and if they are wrong about something first explain rather than rush to condemn and dismiss them.

We could all stand to be a little less judgemental, and we should remind ourselves that most of us were not always communists. We grow and we learn. Not too long ago most of us probably had plenty of bad takes. It's to be expected that some of us still have some liberal impulses that need to be unlearned.

Why not? Who else has a better ability and interest to uncover and expose what the US is plotting in Ukraine? Doesn't necessarily mean that it's true but it's a possibility and one that has been discussed by independent media for a while now. It's interesting to have a state source say this explicitly.

Could this just be information warfare? Of course, but that goes without saying about anything that any side says in a war, and that includes the western mainstream media which for all intents and purposes serves as the mouthpiece of the intelligence community and the military industrial complex.

Another banger video. I know The New Atlas isn't exactly politically aligned with us (sadly he's not a communist), but i really do appreciate how professional and how well sourced his content is. It makes for great educational and propaganda material when confronting liberals. In that context the fact that he uses almost exclusively Western sources (usually not something i appreciate) becomes quite handy, it makes the arguments much harder to dismiss.

This is quality work, comrade! Too bad the anarchist that this is responding to will likely never read it...

Exactly. Some of the people who were involved in top level discussions years before the "Arab Spring" events kicked off have since come out and said that the plan was to topple several regimes in the Middle East that the US was looking to get rid of in short succession. I don't have the interview on hand where this was said but maybe someone else remembers and can link it. In essence what they planned was to get rid first and foremost of regimes that were left over from the cold war as former Soviet allies, all within the span of a few years.

They would take out Libya and Syria and work their way up to Iran. Imo what was unsaid is that the logical conclusion of this chain points directly at Russia. I believe they always wanted to eventually take another stab at taking Russia apart with a Chechen-wars-like conflict. And they would have free reign to do this once they had completely cleared the Middle East. Anyhow, for the Arab Spring the CIA prepared the ground with their NGOs very thoroughly. They were training color revolution operatives on how to employ social media and other destabilization methods years in advance.

Where color revolutions wouldn't work they would either resort to bombing or dirty war via CIA created jihadi proxies.

Edit: here is the clip where a US general talks about the "seven countries in five years" plot. CGTN and Al Jazeera have also reported on this.

No, the email from 2011 said AQ. At the time the groups that would eventually become ISIS were not yet branding themselves as such and were still just an outgrowth of Al Qaeda. But it's the same thing as if they were to say ISIS today.

They're liberals, so not great. They're also highly opportunist and have been edging closer and closer toward betraying Serbia and piece by piece accepting the theft of Kosovo. But given that the West has just tried to instigate a color revolution to overthrow them they must at least be less terrible than the western backed alternative.

It seems that even when you go along with 90% of everything the West wants it's not enough, and the West cannot tolerate that this government has not completely turned against Russia yet. So a blueprint very similar to the one used in Ukraine on the Maidan was deployed, but the Serbs were warned beforehand (allegedly by the Russians) and were prepared. And unsurprisingly it came out fairly quickly that there were Nazi-collaborator sympathizers among the anti-government forces, and that the fingerprints of western intelligence services and western funded NGOs were all over the violence and other subversive activities.

TL;DR: this is not a good government but it could still be worse

That's an excellent comparison.

Sad but predictable. Everyone warned that if Azerbaijan won there would be ethnic cleansing on a mass scale. I know westerners don't give a shit about this, but how can the traitor Pashinyan who sold out these people still have a base of support left in Armenia? Incomprehensible and reprehensible...

Hindustani is a language spoken by both Hindus and Muslims (in both India and Pakistan) as Hindi and Urdu are essentially variants of it. Thus technically Hindustan is a religiously neutral term. The problem is that it only represents north-west India where this language is predominantly spoken. The rest of India would therefore not identify with this name which is also the problem with Bharat. Unfortunately due to India's extremely diverse multi-cultural, multi-ethnic and multi-religious composition there is no optimal solution to this problem.
