The UK Labour Party’s “Antisemitism Crisis” and the Likud Supporters in Its Leadership
The Labour party’s “antisemitism crisis” keeps dragging on.What can the Labour leadership do about it?The Labour’s leadership has tried appeasing its critics, but this has not worked. Appeasement has only emboldened these critics.Jeremy Corbyn’s detractors, both inside and outside the party, are adept at moving the goalposts, and will never be satisfied until he is gone as leader, and Labour once again becomes a “natural” home for opportunists like Tony Blair and his followers, and their friends in the Zionist lobby.Best just to have a proper process of scrutiny in place, with a complementary disciplinary framework, and place the onus on these to deal with the charges of “antisemitism”, most of which have no merit.As far as I can tell, and speaking as a party member, this is what Labour is doing.

Hezbollah’s ban in the UK is a badge of honour
Hezbollah has earned a formidable reputation for military prowess on the battlefield and political nous off it. It’s no wonder ‘they’ want to ban it.Attaining to the status of rule of thumb is that whenever a military and/or political organization is proscribed in the West, prudence demands a closer look; this on the basis that in most cases (though not all) what ‘they’ deem worthy of being proscribed and banned is in truth worthy of support.Take Hezbollah, for example, and the British government’s decision to criminalise the Shiite group’s political wing. Previously only the group’s military wing had been banned in the UK. Is there anyone left in the room that seriously believes this constitutes anything other than another feeble manifestation of the UK’s servile toadying to Washington?

Enemies of the Left
It was spring 1968 when Gerald Kirk and “Herb” met one evening at the Hyde Park Theatre on the South Side of Chicago. Kirk was a young student and Communist Party (CP) member. Herb was several decades his senior. He argued to Kirk that the time had come to break with the party.The CP had become “anti-revolutionary” and “revisionist.” Herb was part of the “Ad Hoc Committee for a Marxist-Leninist Party” and was seeking to recruit true revolutionaries out of the CP’s cadres. Kirk declined, but not merely out of party loyalty. He was a paid informant tasked with keeping tabs on the CP for the FBI.Unbeknownst to Kirk, Herb was also an informant. In fact, the entity Herb was supposedly part of, the “Ad Hoc Committee for a Marxist-Leninist Party,” was almost certainly a creation of the FBI. Kirk was tasked with spying on the CP; Herb was tasked with disrupting it. Neither were aware of the other’s efforts.The revelation that the FBI went so far as to invent a fictitious Marxist organization in their efforts to disrupt and destroy the American left came to light through the research of Aaron Leonard and Conor A. Gallagher, who have written two books on the FBI’s harassment, infiltration, surveillance, and disruption of Maoist organizations.

EFF would be less electoral toxic if they try to branch out to poor whites (if they exist) or just stop making it about race all the fucking time and make it about class

As someone who worked for Dollar Tree for 5 years and was a manager at one for 3, this is pretty surreal.

Also fuck retail lol I hope it all burns.

Deepfakes and voice imitation technology is a thing

From what I understand it it is almost impossible to hold a company criminally liable for anything in the US.

You probably think people landed on the moon.

you prolly believe the soviets went to space HA i gotcha in your own game

They do exist, however, the white working class/lumpen in SA are not as poor as the poorest part of the black population. If the figures are correct most South African whites are not very wealthy but because Africans are so poor I can see how it might seem so.


I doubt this very highly, because English is the preferred lingua franca of South African blacks.

There is no such thing as 'space'.

kant pls.
