  • No you're not understanding what I'm saying. "ML" is not a group in the fashion of Ansar Allah or Hamas or so on. It's a descriptor applied to an individual who is then a member of a group with others who may or may not also fit that descriptor. That group then does things and takes credit as a group.

  • An important distinction here is that Ansar Allah is a militant group while "ml" is simply a political descriptor. There is no group or party called ml. ML's make up a large portion of communist party and other groups membership alongside others who describe themselves with other labels.

  • I don’t see mls driving out ICE from MN.

    Well the server you are on ends in .ml to mean marxist lenninist, so yeah they are kind of labeled.

    Didn't really answer my main question since that doesn't really apply in the situation described.

  • Ok just to preface I am not amerikkkan so outside looking on on your many issues.

    But genuine question how do you see an ml? Can you read their mind? Or do you expect them to label themselves as such on a name tag or sign? What of the people who are for all intents and purposes ml but simply don't take on the label for one reason or another? Feels like you're making a lot of assumptions based on vibes.

    Also another question. Voting isn't just voting under your system as I understand it. It's a multi year process of canvassing and related work. So if bourgeois-democracy has been shown to be a dead end repeatedly throughout history it feels like wasting the hundreds of hours to prep and do it is a real misallocation of resources no?

    Spreading agit-prop, showing up for "protests" (parades in the American case from what I've seen (this is a whole separate tangent I could go on)) and generally teaching arming and doing socialist work seems much more valuable use of time. Not hyper familiar with American orgs so I would defer to the likes of cowbee to explain in detail what the orgs are actually doing with the saved resources.

  • There was a lot of talk of Chinese weapons systems but all we’re seeing is Shaheds and Iranian domestic missiles.

    Both of these are made using materials from China. Rocket fuel precursor and duel use drone components (also SAM components which seem to have had some luck downing Israeli drones).

    Or those hypersonic anti ship missiles.

    Iran are using their old stock they haven't even started using their own hypersonic FATTAH-1s what makes you think they'd bring out the even more advanced Chinese stock they might have?

    Meanwhile NATO is sending troops and weapons from every country including the European ones. And they even participate in intercepting Iranian missiles. Looks like Capitalist international solidarity is far superior.

    Almost like when the current hegemon and it's vassal's have nuclear weapons and they decide to take direct action against non nuclear powers MAD makes it near impossible for rival nuclear powers to step in personally.

    Please don't take this the wrong way I'm not trying to call you out or any of that nonsense, but from the 2 of your posts where we've had brief interactions it feels like you have a set outcome in mind (China bad) and are twisting yourself in knots to to reach that point irrespective of facts or material reality.

  • Most large Chinese companies, especially high-paying tech firms, requires a work schedule of 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. from Monday to Saturday

    Gross overstatement. It was an issue affecting ~40 of the largest tech firms during peak tech boom.(2016-2019) Was ruled illegall in 2021 and further protections and enforcement are being put in place on 996 and illegal overtime in general with the 2025 Consumption Boost Plan alongside further solidifying a more comprehensive social safety net and worker protections.

  • Didn't read the link, did you? Classic. China is already supplying Iran with advanced radar, Beidou satellite access, rocket precursors, and dual-use components for SAM sites and drones. That is not "empty words", that is tangible military hardware moving right now. But sure, keep screaming "actions not words" while ignoring the actual actions you were too lazy to click. Cope harder.

    You genuinely think slapping rare earth restrictions during a trade spat is the same as cutting off the US and Israel cold in a wartime ultimatum? One is calibrated economic pressure, the other is lighting the fuse on WW3. Did you think your reply through at all?

    Also wild that you demand China "prove" support by throwing citizens into a US-proxy meatgrinder. China already handed the US military its first strategic defeat in Korea with volunteers and bolt-action rifles when America had nukes and industry at its absolute peak. Today? China's defensive industrial base outproduces the US in drones, rockets, ships, and jets. In a non-nuclear defensive war, China absolutely wins. And if you are still daydreaming about the US "coming after China militarily", maybe google DF-61 before you type.

    Lastly, spare me the lecture on "supporting oppressed nations" from someone whose entire foreign policy knowledge comes from Western headlines. China lifted 800 million people out of poverty, builds ports and railways across the Global South without colonial strings or regime-change footnotes. China has done more for oppressed nations than any other group or nation that still exists. Again I say cope harder.

  • To start China is supporting Irans war effort.

    China not wanting to get into a hot war with the US is bad? You people are so unserious. How many Chinese citizens should the PRC sacrifice in a meaningless dick measuring contest with the US to satisfy you people. And before you say Israel isn't the US that's just not true Israel is effectively the 51st state any act of aggression against them will see American retaliation.

  • Elevating Kim Jong Nam as some poor detefector who was killed for speaking out is kind of funny given he was a CIA asset. And on all those who "disappear" for speaking out you wouldn't happen to have a source? Ideally one that avoids the ROK defector industrial complex, ROK tabloids or RFA. "It is known" isn't really enough to assert claims like that

  • The theory of Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin is universally applicable. We should regard it not as a dogma, but as a guide to action. Studying it is not merely a matter of learning terms and phrases but of learning Marxism-Leninism as the science of revolution. It is not just a matter of understanding the general laws derived by Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin from their extensive study of real life and revolutionary experience, but of studying their standpoint and method in examining and solving problems.

  • Iran's strength is that even with its old stock of short-medium range missiles and cheap shahed drones they can already strike through multi million dollar interceptor swarms.

    Iran's trump card is that they have stocks of Fattah-1 hypersonic missiles in reserve and that the USIsrealis are already running out of interceptors.

    Also again if the gulf are "selling" under monopoly conditions to Russia and China who support Iran they will absolutely be getting cents which is economy crushing when you rely on oil if China or Russia buy from them at all when they already have massive oils deals with Iran. This is massive speculation that it will happen at all as again I pointed out already their production capacity has been targeted and some of it is already shut down.

  • We're back to this point which is as I already pointed out is ruled irrelevant by the fact that when 2 countries hostile to the west hold complete control of flow from the region they get to set the price. "Market price" isn't real in a monopoly situation.

  • Outside the fact that the USIsrealis barely have enough stockpiles for themselves. Iran is striking the gulf production capacity. Qatar for example has shut down it's LNG. Do you think smuggled oil if any even is smuggled (big speculation) will be getting a fair price?

  • So? That's completely different than what your post is suggesting. Even if Chinese or Russian vessels "smuggle" gulf oil it's not really relevant. Do you think they'll be bailing out the west with it?
