Nice to see Russia taking a page out of China’s book for once!
Now do “poverty eradication” and “crackdown on corruption” and maybe sprinkle a bit of “peaceful rise” on top and you’re cooking
It was completely banned, same as all other antisemitic propaganda. Here’s an interview in Russian about this specific question: https://www.svoboda.org/a/2077533.html
As a sidenote, this speech is 🔥🔥🔥: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_n_qtgUKnY
Hahaha yeah I’m in awe of how Wells is full of himself, my favourite quotes are “It seems to me that I am more to the Left than you, Mr Stalin” which Wells utters in the same breath he praises Henry fucking Ford who would later support NSDAP with such fervor Hitler wanted to make Ford the leader of the fascist movement in the US; and “I do not know if you are prepared yet for that much freedom” in regards to the PEN Club, which at the time of this interview forbid it’s members from using words such as “nationalism, inter-nationalism, democracy, aristocracy, imperialistic, anti-imperialistic, bourgeoisie, revolutionist or alike”, wow that’s way too much freedom for authoritarian Soviets to handle lol
USian “working class” is actually labour aristocracy / petty bourgeois. Those classes are always the driving force behind the rise of fascism. Case in point: Trump.

Copying my comment from another thread: when I need to discuss “change through bourgeois electoralism” with libs I love sharing this interview:
It’s so perfect; it’s a reputable Western newspaper so you can share it in almost any setting, just preface it for plausible deniability with something like: “It’s a hilarious read, one of the greatest modern liberal intellectuals debates a genocidal maniac frothing at the mouth!”
Libs love the idea and usually swallow the bait expecting funzies, they looooove them a stuck-up Brit “speaking truth to power” and handing out “hitchslaps”.
And then Stalin absolutely demolishes Wells and it really fucks with their world. Wells says FDR’s New Deal will bring about socialism in the USA and Stalin’s like nah cause the economy is in the hands of capitalists so at most you will get some concessions which capitalists will keep fighting to revert. Stalin’s arguments are so clear and concise, and his predictions are so plainly correct, while Wells is just being confidently wrong and terribly smug about it.
I had some success with it too, including one well-meaning lib literally telling me the next day, “Stalin was right” which are the three words I would not expect a lib utter under any circumstances.
Seconding Second Thought, also adding First Thought!
This series by Jacobin is IMHO a really good primer into leftism for libs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDg71ql7zQs&list=PLxlNhP2f0kULW8hdxvfF6ZcDbndpvF8Sb
It’s a Polish surname
It’s so disappointing, I shared some of GZ articles with a friend of mine, primarily about Xinjiang. I was getting through to them but then that friend sent me a link of Max going full antivax asking, “this your guy?” and since then they pretty much treat anything political coming from me as a lizard people conspiracy.
Also, Ben does good analysis but he doesn’t do investigative journalism which is what was good about Grayzone.
What do you make of Aaron Mate?

I see, thank you for the explanation comrade. It’s despicable to use someones breakdown for propaganda.
I’m from the USSR and I had a yank tell me I’d be speaking German if not for murica.
I said I only speak a bit of German but wish I spoke it better so he went on to painstakingly explain what WW2 was.
It was kinda funny but less so than I thought it’d be.
Thanks comrade!
Sorry, I don’t know the context. Did she do this as a protest do draw attention to women’s rights in Iran? If so, this drawing seems in support, depicting her as towering over her surroundings, and doesn’t seem particularly sexualised.
What did she do?
