The new Red Scare

Palmer 1919. McCarthy 1950. 2026: a faceless memorandum. How Washington declares its own opposition a foreign network.

Fascism? For what?

Fascism sought to suppress class antagonism by command and perished in the attempt. Democracy achieves the same through competition, voting rights, and consumption. Trump and the AfD have no need for systemic change.

Who Speaks for nature?

Marxism explains capitalism’s ecological damage, but socialism needs environmental ethics to value nature beyond human use and prevent all domination.

The Mass Line and Theories of Knowledge

Lenin, Spinoza, Althusser, Mao, Lazarus: Revolutionary politics needs theory, but must develop it further through the practice of the masses.

Europe’s Values and Their Victims – on deportations

The EU is tightening its deportation policy: “return hubs”, violence and pressure against refugees are not a break with supposedly European values, but the consequence of an order that sorts people by usefulness and sells exclusion as values-based policy.

The party of God: a history of Hezbollah

Hezbollah was, as former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak correctly recognized, “created only through [Israel’s] presence.” However, that does not change its Bonapartist development. Today, internal pressure is more dangerous to it than any Merkava tank.

Schumpeter’s Death: You’re Not Worried Enough About AI

AI will intensify the class contradiction and its outward effects to a degree that cannot be compared with any other crisis of the past decades.

The War Against Iran:
The Correct Position

Iran is a deeply reactionary class state. But that is not relevant to the rejection of this imperialist raid. A punch does not become dentistry just because a rotten tooth happens to fall out.

Cuba: Despite It All

The history, conditions, mistakes, and achievements of the Cuban Revolution, from José Martí through the Revolution and the blockade to today’s “Opción Cero,” and what awaits Cuba in its most severe crisis since the Revolution.

In light of recent events


No, it’s not “the jews”.

Hatred of Jews is the “socialism of the fool”: capitalist conditions are reduced to individual people, and criticism of capital is projected onto isolated actors. Historically, nothing has been more effective in securing power than antisemitism.

Jeffrey Epstein was not a real person

Jeffery Epstein was less a man than a legal fiction created for the elite. Despite lacking qualifications, he was hired at the Dalton School by former OSS (CIA predecessor) agent Donald Barr. This early link to the intelligence apparatus marked him as a tool for the international bourgeoisie. He was effectively grown in a test tube to serve power.

    Workerism sees the working class as the bearer of emancipation, but revolutionary subjectivity emerges through political practice and organization, not automatically from economic struggle or structure.
