Am I the only one who remembers that Joe Biden was Vice President during the 2014 US coup in Ukraine? Or that his kid joined the board of Ukraine's largest gas company shortly thereafter? Or that Dems orchestrated a false "Russian disinformation" narrative to cover this all up?
Since SimpliSafe is trending, it's a great time to remind folks not to participate in the police state. Don't use home security cameras or video doorbells. These devices are poorly regulated, & tens of thousands of formal police requests are approved each year for these data. 1/5
Police departments around the country, literally thousands of them, have partnered with Amazon, Google, and others for easy data sharing. Mass surveillance in the US is out of control. Even police body cams are owned by private entities (that partner with other private entities).
These devices invade the privacy of everyone who has ever been in their vicinity. Doorbell cams can even pick up conversations up to 25 feet away. These conversations are sent directly, usually via unsecured connections, to the owner company as well as partner companies.
Our phones, our Google searches, our doorbells - all offer data to the police state &, imo, the much bigger beast: private non-state actors with more money than most countries. We're all far too old to be tattling on others. Never trust a company more than you trust a person. 5/5
You might've seen that France seems… upset. Strikes, protests, riots.
Why the outrage?
Well, it started early this year when President Macron proposed changing the pension system, which would essentially raise the retirement age from 62 to 64.

I was reminded of this thread and wanted to offer two images that immediately demonstrate that black American soldiers are in fact American soldiers who feel entitled to Korean women's bodies just the same as whites. Imagine crying discrimination over unequal raping privileges.
The only people I've genuinely ever felt bad for are the poor black/hispanic/indigenous sent into these senseless wars. They were made to carry the injustice and violence of empire affecting them everyday at home, and impose it on an innocent population abroad.

I dug around the internet a bit and learned that this photo *does not* depict Che Guevara. This photo is actually from a performance by a theater group in Atlanta, Georgia, nearly 22 years after Guevara’s death.

The criticism Jackson is receiving from his right-wing (former) supporters & associates is predictable. As a Southern communist, I know very well how ostracizing & threatening conservatives can be. I'm grateful to see Jackson stand on business even in the face of public scrutiny.

Idk which book that is, but it's not quite right. "Confessions" albums were a sort of trendy visitor's log in the latter 1800s in England, kind of like a Myspace or Facebook survey. Karl Marx completed that one with his daughter Jenny. I've added one from Engels too just for fun!

Joseph Stalin was one of the greatest leaders in human history who successfully defeated some of the gravest threats ever created by man. Stalin continues to inspire the world's working peoples and elicits fear and reactionary contempt from the rapidly declining exploiter class.
At age 13, I went for a night walk in Dallas & was tailed by a van until cops lit them up. While walking in Baltimore at 19, I was advised by a kind homeless man to turn around. One early morning in Austin at 21, I walked past the body of a classmate who'd been raped & murdered.

No disrespect to Ukraine or Russia, but it's been wild losing friends over the conflict. Bc I have the audacity to believe Russians are human, I've been screamed at & ostracized by folks who *still* can't find Ukraine on a map. My opinion of Americans declined sharply this year.
Hello again, former neuroscientist here: the scientific community never endorsed the "chemical imbalance" pseudo-theory. It has always been a marketing ploy. The chemical imbalance theory of depression is categorically false.

I'm getting ratio'd on this, but I stand by it. If you're a Marxist-Leninist, then you can't support sex work, because according to both Marx & Lenin, prostitution is NOT WORK. This is a fact. To Marx, prostitutes were Lumpenproletariats, & Lenin punished them as labor deserters.

Prostitution is absolutely, unequivocally not "real work." This tests our understanding of the central tenet of Marxist theory: labor.
Prostitution is an exploitative social phenomenon that has thrived under capitalism and in the era of private property. 2/
Never in my life have I been called submissive. I say what I think, and I do what is right. The American Communist Party was formed by the men in the photo. You are welcome to create your own party. What you will not do is project your feminist fever dreams onto me.
Men who have sex with men (MSM) have shockingly high rates of STIs — shocking until you study their sexual behavior+geographical isolation. Gonorrhea rates are 42x higher among MSM than straight men. MSM are less than 2% of the US population yet make up 67% of new HIV diagnoses.

Some of you know my early criticism of Haz. In 2022, I felt he was underdeveloped as a person & unserious as a thinker.
People change. Haz is now among the leading American communist minds. He understands his responsibility as a leader.
@ACPMain
offers communists an opportunity.
Watch some early Haz Al-Din debates then watch his most recent stream if you want to understand why this man is now someone I call a friend & comrade.
I always thought Haz had a deeper grasp on Marxism than 99% of the left. I just didn’t know what he wanted to do with that.
Porn is capitalism personified. One of the most intimate of human acts has been conflated with sexualized terror and forced onto every person in this country and beyond. Once unimaginable atrocities are broadcast to children before they've even developed, (1/2)
Foucault, who died in 1984 of HIV/AIDS, paid children in Tunisia to have sex with him and lobbied against age of consent laws in France.
I will never pass up an opportunity to remind people of this.
The four great political thinkers of the 20th century are Arendt, Foucault, Rawls, and Hayek. Deal with it however you want - I am no fan of Hayek - but that’s the way it is.
With porn, the sexual encounter is commodified, & intimacy is abolished. The 2 halves of the human whole are disunited in the name of sexual pleasure — an act designed to bring men & women together. Porn is an unproductive societal drain that threatens working class camaraderie.
how about I try this again, can the clique of Jackon Hinkle-ite cunts refrain from responding to this and instead can I get responses from people who don't hate women with dyed hair who work at coffee shops?
When I was 22 years old, I received a $40,000 dental bill. I had been unable to eat most food for years, and I finally had no choice but to get the work done. My insurance refused to cover it. This is not the American dream. Americans cannot prosper under Capitalist parasitism.
Communism is not equal outcomes. Communism is not wealth redistribution. Communism is not Medicare for All or free degrees or whatever other liberal slogan. Communism is the conscious, positive restoration of man to himself as a social being. It is society freed from itself.
My notifications have never been so swamped as they are now after the launch of the
#AmericanCommunistParty
. People are engaged, energetic, curious, and compelled. This is the dawn of a new era.
Male & female are the two halves of the reproducing whole. A man cannot make a child without a woman, & a woman cannot make a child without a man. God created man & drew from his side a woman. From woman, man is born. We are pairs. We complement each other. Stop making it weird.
In 1981, the NYTimes first published a report about HIV/AIDS. HIV entered America in the early 1960s but went unnoticed by our health agencies for nearly 2 decades. While the FDA began domestic regulation in 1984, US companies continued to export contaminated blood until 1986. 🧵
Do I support sex workers under capitalism?
Yes, because they're an oppressed proletariat.
Should sex work exist under socialism?
I think the correct Marxist response to that should be "no".
@Aella_Girl
Just off the jump, your survey can't actually answer the question implied by the title & conclusion, i.e. "Do women prefer violent porn?" 1) The question implies that you're comparing women's preference for violent porn vs non-violent porn, which is not what you actually did. 2/
When Russia marched through Germany they rapped every girl ages 8-80
If someone tried stopping their mother or sister from being raped they would be shot
There would be 10 men lined up to rape a 9 year old girl
Many were badly beaten
But we were the good guys so we don’t
Historically, fascists, not communists, are drawn from the lumpenproletariat. Targeting the declassed, degraded, & degenerated masses is the work of demagogues. The commodified class which sells its labor power, in direct contradistinction to Capital, is the revolutionary class.
The doctor's story strikes a chord with me. I worked in PTSD research at Johns Hopkins University. Every case told a tale of human horrors — a child set on fire, continual near-fatal beatings, sexual brutality of every kind. PTSD was the only logical outcome. 1/4

"Human beings aren't born wishing to buy commercial sexual services or visit lap dance clubs any more than they're born wishing to play the lottery or drink Coca-Cola. They have to learn that paying a stranger to dance naked is 'fun' and a signifier of their social identity." 1/2

The audience here is clearly right-wing. They have no interest in the minutiae of communism. Trots and MLs alike will be tossed out of helicopters. The better argument is that the US legally protects freedom of assembly and expression, and pro-censorship is anti-American. 2/2

Your conclusion instead seems to mean that women's preference for violent porn is somehow greater than men's preference for violent porn, yet you didn't construct your "experiment" (in this case, setup, survey, and analysis) in such a way as to be able to answer this question. 3/
Communists insufficiently understand that you cannot create anew without the old. There is no pure present or future. The world is and has been dominated by Capitalism. The next economic order must be built, and it will sublate, not replace, the old. 1/3

Rando dropping by to mention that prostitution is *not* the world's oldest profession. The colonizer Rudyard Kipling, an English man occupying India, coined the phrase in 1889 in a short story about an Indian prostitute and "the inability of the East to manage its own affairs."
"But when in the course of events, a Communist Party proves itself to be incapable of meeting a new development of history, it evidently must be reconstituted..."

2) The data you did collect indicate that neither women nor men like violent porn. In fact, very few like it at all, as evidenced by the rest of the Substack article. You seem to derive your "conclusion" from the respondents' subjective violence rating of the porn they watch. 4/
I cannot convey how grotesque I find the caricatured female form for the entitled male gaze. Those drawings are commonly found on women's body positive blogs, intended to demonstrate the variety of non-pornographic breasts, yet here you are, a man & his mommy, fetishizing them.

The goal is not to transform Americans into communists. The goal is to increase the capabilities and prosperity of the people. We do not need shallow, vacuous positive sentiment towards "communism". Meaningful impact requires improving the material conditions of the masses.

You used the phrase "world's oldest profession" as evidence that prostitution is somehow "normal." I wanted to point out that this premise is untrue, since the phrase was actually only recently coined by a British colonizer in India, which nullifies your argument. 🤷🏻♀️
For the past year, I've cooked nearly every meal at home from scratch. My health is better than ever, I look better than ever, and I've never eaten more delicious food. However, it has cost an inordinate amount of time, money, and energy. We must socialize food + meal production.
Matthew is a perfect archetype of an American communist right now. He is taking a video that communicates a message that is virtually unsaid entirely in the West about a country we have tried to destroy and turning it into a petty personal beef that isn't even articulated.
I will be going live at 9:30pm EST to address the most common questions and concerns I've observed about the American Communist Party.
I recommend anyone curious about the new Party to tune in tonight.
To reject your national identity is to reject reality. The process of nation-building is a historical & material fact. The development of nations as the unit of global cooperation through international affairs cannot be denied. Understand and utilize reality; stop fighting facts.
hurricane katrina was a radicalizing moment for me-seeing people left to die-painting help on the roofs while the helis whizzed past. people getting food were shot by the same mercenaries hired in iraq-katrina woke me up-that could be me on that roof-they will leave us all behind
The fact that this perspective can appeal to men highlights the apathy, cynicism, & despair we are currently experiencing as a society. Enjoying your wife is not some unachievable dream outside the realm of possibility. Why would you follow a guy who promises you misery at best?
