TWSF is an attempt to cohere a certain set of political beliefs with a political practice; in short I sell clothes to raise funds for 3rd world social movements
It’s come to my attention that no one knows how to get twsf shit but you can DM me here or check out my Instagram where I post way more art and way less opinions
The largest non-governing communist party in history to this day. Millions organized in the party, millions more in mass orgs. Not a trace of them remains
A cautionary tale: the enemy does not perish by itself, beasts must be annihilated
Today marks the 104th anniversary of the founding of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) in 1920 –at one point the largest communist party outside of China and the USSR. The PKI was brutally wiped out during the US-led Cold War anti-communist frenzy. Top-secret CIA reports
Marxists need to avoid the trap of investing into the 'first world worker' identity. Not because worker struggles don't matter; the opposite in fact. What we call 'proletarian struggle' in the imperial core is really just dispute over the share of the imperialist pie
Marxists need to avoid the trap of investing oneself in the “Land Back” identity. Not because anti-colonial struggles don’t matter; the opposite, in fact. What we call Land Back in today’s online & activist spaces is something that separates Marxists from such mass struggles.
Fidel in his eulogy to Che drives home that being a guerrilla was only one small part of who Che was,
“For he was a student of all problems; he was a tireless reader. His thirst for learning was practically insatiable, and the hours he stole from sleep he devoted to study.”
What was your political ‘oh there is not reforming this’ moment for me it was the murder of Eric Gardner & hearing him say ‘i can’t breathe’ over and over and NYPD coming out in these shirts in response
Gerald Horne:
“The u.s. left has difficulty acknowledging that Mr. Trump has a mass base. You don’t get 75 million votes from the 1%… it is in the euro-amerika middle class & working class…
The left has no notion of settler colonialism and class collaboration.”
Urban Guerrilla Warfare APOLOGY FORM:
1. Media convinced me the heroic guerrilla was finished
2. I let the SSionists propaganda spread panic
3. I was jealous of people united in action against colonialism
4. I don’t study asymmetrical warfare
5. Mercury was in retrograde
This is completely inconsequential to the liberation of Palestine & to think otherwise is detached from political reality
This isn’t bad for the broader movement nor should we be upset by it. BDS is gaining momentum from the ground up, not from these careerists
It’s certain that many if not most of the people in this have been murdered by iSSrael in the interim, but for a brief moment, they were completely & utterly free humans & they wear it on their faces. This image will live forever
In todays Wtf is going on in Peru news:
Former dictator and convicted genocidaire Alberto Fujimori (86) has been pardoned on ‘humanitarian grounds’ & he has registered with his daughters party, Fuerza Popular, opening the door for him to participate in the 2026 elections
Their grandson started an organization that provides direct material support to the children of political prisoners, don’t forget those that fought for you!
June 19, 1953 Julius and Ethel Rosenberg are executed by electric chair at Sing Sing Correctional Facility at the peak of McCarthyist anti-communist hysteria.
“FREE CASEY GOONAN! FREE JACK MAZUREK, FREE THE COP CITY 61, DROP THE CHARGES OF THE MERRIMACK 4 AND THE MOUNTAIN VALLEY PIPELINE LAND DEFENDERS. FREE THE HOLY LAND FOUNDATION 5! FREE LEONARD PELTIER!
FREE PALESTINE; LONG LIVE THE INTIFADA.”

If you are for the collapse of the Iranian regime you are for the collapse of the entire Axis of resistance, which is responsible for the biggest crisis imperialism has faced in decades
These people are actually fighting imperialism not cheering from the sidelines
@CallaWalsh
Liking a group doesn’t mean I agree with everything they believe. Iran is fighting Zionism which is great but they are an extremism religious regime, I am against any government like that regardless of religion or who their friends and/or enemies are
Bolivia had overturned coups before, but this one seems a far more straightforward power grab. They’ve struggled peacefully, played by all the rules and still this. It will only convince more people in the region of the validity of armed struggle
I wonder how many people who crashed out of the New Communist movement in the 70s/80s to integrate back into the regular world to live regular lives are now like this to their grandkids
The students at Berkeley took over an abandoned building next to people’s park. What’s the administration going to say they’re disrupting? The building has been abandoned! A first of this movement I believe
As Gerald Horne is wont to point out, the settler colony seems to abide by Donald Rumsfeld’s principle that the way to confront a difficult problem is to enlarge it. That is, to create a new dynamic
Keep thinking about how Israel can’t win a war against a guerrilla force that has been hermetically sealed off for 9 months and is using recycled munitions and yet is marching confidently toward a large scale confrontation with the most powerful non-state actor in modern history
Hamas military victory is in fact the *only* viable path for Palestinian liberation
And to be quite honest, what would Hamas have to gain from a ‘United front’ with you? What exactly are you bringing to the table?
People mad in the QTs might consider actually reading the article. It upholds armed resistance and calls for a united front with Hamas against the genocide.
The tough reality is Hamas has no path to victory in the current war. There is a reason why Netanyahu supported them.
Actually the American empire is alive and well and we got nothing but green lights ahead. Best economy, culture, basketball/baseball/hockey/football, increasingly competitive cricket and soccer teams, hottest chicks, most lethal fighter jets, natural gas coming out our eyeballs
BREAKING | 8 Israeli soldiers burned to death after the resistance in Gaza targeted and destroyed their troop carrier 'Namer' with an ATGM, according to Israeli media.
ANDES fact of the day:
The Andean condor has a wingspan of over 10ft and is considered to be the largest bird of prey in the world. The Incas believed the condor was a sacred bird and represented the idea of heaven
White House press secretary denies that Joe Biden froze and had to be led off the stage by Obama at a recent fundraiser:
“[Obama and Biden] are friends. They’re like family to each other, and I think that’s what you saw.”
After a Weather Underground bombing of the capitol in 1971, Judy Gumbo famously proclaimed,
“We didn’t do it, but we dug it.”
To put a contemporary spin on this refrain:
We didn’t do it, but we’re down with it. Support political prisoners, there will only be more to come
If you do not think these actions are effective, or if you think they are not wise, you should still support the accused. The ethical content of these deeds is clear, and it is something we should all aspire to, tactics aside: selfless and urgent action to stop the war. 4/5
I think a lesson of the Peruvian civil war is that youre going to play one super-power off the other or you’re going to die alone— completely alone like the shining path did.
Those mfs went to war against the state, the legal Left, the guerrilla left, the USSR, the DPRK, China
ON THE FRONTLINES OF REVOLUTION: AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH CPI (MAOIST)
Red. media interviewed spokesperson Amrut about the party's founding, life in guerrilla zones, and views on political issues, including modern China's character. READ HERE:
One of the most bleak things is that money ‘works’ in amerikan politics? The big revelation is that the u.s. politics is dominated by money???
You already knew that before what are we even doing
easily one of the more bleak things i’ve seen. aipac spent millions of dollars to oust bowman making it the most expensive primary in country history and it worked. everything about the system is evil and does not work
I don't harp on this too much cause like it's not gonna persuade anyone but it's *extremely possible* Trump is experiencing actual cognitive decline while Biden is just old
What we did to Hawaii was absolutely criminal
Hawaii right now would literally collapse without tourism, though. Like, it'd be one of the poorest regions in the country
Most people in the imperial core are liberal, individualistic and yes, decadent by default! It’s impossible to live in an empire as rapacious as this one and not be marked by its features. The united states is a decadent society & it’s no surprise its citizens are as well
I'll be the first to defend my queer ppl but we have to stop pretending queerness (especially in the West) is inherently revolutionary. Some of yall are some of the most liberal, individualist, decadent people holding the revolution back. Imperialism = the primary contradiction.
@vinnywin3

@CPutzel
We don’t have to guess what if, we know the u.s. would immediately start depopulating the native people & import their settler garrisons
It’s still underway in Hawaii you can see it happening
Amerikkkans get to opt out of every war, every genocide, every sanctions regime their empire imposes. What this country needs is an anti-imperialist movement kind enough to ‘invite’ amerikkkans to partake in the suffering they export; not one that will coddle them
“If we speak of sorrow, we are saddened not only at having lost a person of action. We are saddened at having lost a person of virtue… at having lost a person of unsurpassed human sensitivity… at having lost such a mind.”
Nazis are back in power and are taking their revenge, says Colombian President Gustavo Petro.
Gaza is their laboratory but they won’t stop until they make all of humanity “into an enslaved robot.”
Che visited the Soviet Union in the early 60s and immediately saw which way the wind was blowing. And y’all doubt that man’s Marxist theoretician credentials
@vinnywin3
@zukosmadre
@CPutzel
I’m sure they do, and as you can see they have not ethnically cleansed the region like amerikans have done with every single state spanning a continent.
There is no comparison.
Perhaps I am the wrong messenger, but we do need to discuss how the u.s. was effectively able to defang and isolate the revolutionary movement last time around. Through a combination of crude and ever sophisticated methods, the revolution was in fact jailed and it was killed
And of course the most important thing is that the resistance in Gaza is in good shape. That’s what’s decisive to the liberation struggle, not how many demokkkrats are sitting in congress endorsing the butcher of Palestine
It must’ve felt so good to banish your political opponents to Kazakhstan back in the Soviet days.
Don’t let me sniff political power or a lot of mfs gonna find themselves here
What was the correct strategy the USSR could've feasibly applied? I don't think they were particularly thrilled by their near complete international isolation
Guy who has spent his entire life sucking from the teat of u.s. imperialism & the resources (human & natural) it steals/hoards:
I don’t think this is about resources
The amoral American empire only concerned with it’s own power and access to resources that these people think exists would have thrown Netanyahu to the wolves decades ago.
MUST READ STATEMENT FROM UCI Rank & File:
"UAW is a business union thats long acted as controlled opposition w/in the Amerikan racial capitalist-imperialist state to protect econ interests... we see that the ULP strike is another in a long line of calculated, diluted maneuvers…
The Russians ‘kkkolonizers’ went into Ukraine and Kazakhstan & left behind hospitals, literate people and employment
Shall we contrast with what euro & amerikan colonialism leaves in its wake? Shall we talk about Libya, Iraq, Grenada, El Salvador, Vietnam, or manifest destiny?
Twitter leftists are all certifier "kill the boer" KKKolonizer destroyers until it comes to Russians in former colonies like the Baltics or Ukraine or Kazakhstan, where suddenly they're all innocent indigenous smol beans fighting evil nazi collaborator descendants
A month or so before they were systematically wiped out, Mao met with PKI leader Aidit & told him bluntly,
“I think the Indonesian right wing is determined to seize power. Are you determined too?”
It’s not like no one saw it coming

A cautionary tale: the enemy does not perish by itself, beasts must be annihilated
The biggest crime in history is that the Nazi Europeans got away with reducing the death count for the Holocaust to 6 million people when they really killed 27 MILLION Soviets. No gas chambers, just mass graves and bullets to the head. 27 million
I’m just a humble screen printer but it seems to me that exacerbating the splits within the party instead of unifying after an attempted coup is not in anyone’s best interest except the CIA’s
The split in Bolivia’s left has reached catastrophic proportions, with the MAS Party accusing President Luis Arce of staging yesterday’s coup.
The national committee of the MAS, currently controlled by supporters of Evo Morales, made the claim today in a press conference.
This is my favorite thing Marxists do,
‘Gotcha! You’ve failed to use this trite, stale definition that has failed us for over half a century and gotten us no where.’
