        We’re approaching the point of: grillman “damn hipsters with their skinny baggy skinny jeans”

    the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry

    Internet leftist co-opting aside, this is about as naked a genocidal argument I’ve seen. Usually it’s couched in “right to defend”, “hostages”, “human shields”, etc., but this sticker says that a basic cultural expression of Palestine is tantamount to Naziism.

    The equivalent would be what, saying a kippah is a genocidal symbol?

    At first I thought this was a billboard on the side of a building which would be really yikes-1 , but maybe it’s just a sticker on the back of a road sign?

    Ok, I’m going to ask the silly question: What is the origins of Maoist Standard English?

      I think the earliest consistent uses I can think of in print are Pantherist writings, and there’s a fair bit of blending of Pantherist thought in US Maoist currents.

      The first time I came about something similar was reading Settlers by J Sakai, but I think its current form is just exaggerating the settlers style.

        Question: since Lula is a Global South socdem, is he a lib?

          Yes. He’s a Lib with a neoliberal government, barely even socdem

          Technically yes, but he talks about building wealth evenly through social programs in his own country, which improves people’s lives and goes against historical austerity imposed on the global south, which could facilitate decoupling from western hegemony. This makes him theoretically better than a socdem in the west, who is limited to making wealth more evenly distributed, but ultimately still derives that power from plundering the global south. Being better just because of your geopolitical conditions is not guaranteed, however, as we have seen in recent years in Chile and Peru.

            Yeah, there are global South allies who are technically libs (eg. Ta Nehisi Coates)

            and

            libs who definitely know they depend on the hegemonic western capitalist base, with its unequal ‘exchange’ and imposed IMF austerity, dollar rule, and interest rates…

        There is a difference between liberals and fascists. Its slight and the liberals do tend towards fascism but they aren’t there yet.

    It seems unwise to conflate yourself to victims of the KKK when your main supporters are the ones who think the brown people abroad are inferior and gross.
