What exactly is wrong with independence and self-determination for all peoples? Why force a whole group of people to be part of a state they don't have any attachment to?

Nothing really, but your implicit argument is majorly premised in that there is consistency in what you're advocating for. In that major premise is the falsity of it.

I'm confused because what you're describing to me, is a peaceful transition from a bourgeois-worker government to a worker government.
You can see why, as a Marxist, I'm skeptical.

because to describe it as a "bourgeois worker government" is inaccurate. if the vast majority of the government is proletarian but also includes a bourgeois minority, that can transfer peacefully (because the proletariat is already in charge).

The real is rational and the rational is real. This is one of the basic pronciples of Hegel's philosophy. But this means, the downfall of the Soviet Union was a good thing, because the system was obviously not rational and therefore it had to vanish.

Bonus question: Doesn't Hegelianism justify imperialism? I would say "Yes". What do fellow Hegelians think?

It really doesn’t. The stages described by marx and engels are descriptive for western europe and what was important was the fact that internal contradictions within system will eventually cause it to change. Never mind that the dialectical nature of the struggle entails a constant back and forth and dynamic unstable equilibrium. Capitalism wasn’t immediately instantiated by the French Revolution as a world system either, much less bourgeois parliamentarianism.

Zionists frequently exploit past or present acts of anti-Semitism in order to deflect criticism of the acts of wealthy Jews and the Israeli state, conflating criticism with attack and particular Jews or the state of Israel with all Jews or even Jewishness itself.

That all sounds great.

Don't know much about Palestine, but what you suggested sounds interesting. If you're going to argue against the culturalist/islamist side to the activism, it would also be good to highlight where you think the positive activism is coming from too.

Definitely think the disability is understudied on leftypol. I think perhaps it's often just seen as a idpol optional extra. I think modern eugenics is an extremly important and grim area that needs bringing to the fore, especially when in all spheres of production, people are increasingly thought of in terms of their (capitalist) productive value.

World Systems Theory is also good. I don't know if you saw it, but we just published an article (https://newmultitude.org/friends-coffee-and-genocide-the-limits-of-globalization/) that looks at how cultural products connect to commodities in the world system. Would be happy to have any article that looks at these theories, are you familiar with John Smith too?

It might be easier to communicate via twitter if you want to, but no worries if you don't have or want an account. Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi, author of the Settlers review, finally back with my promised updated version. I think it's far, far better, especially as my other one was nothing more than a rushed effortpost. To the Editors of New Multitude, you have my full permission to add this article to your site, and I'd actually quite appreciate it if you replace the old review with this new one, particularly as I am not too happy with my old one. In this document, I also give the name I'd like used in place of "JTP", which was an acronym I had previously used in the spur of the moment. I hope you like it, and to any anons in the thread, I'd love feedback.

transhumanists make up .6% of the American population and Zoomers are 11% LGBT with only 2% of them identifying as trans. That's EVEN LESS transhumanists than there were for the older generation. Why do we get spammed with so much anti transhumanist shit here? Because it's edgy to do so?

I'm actually surprised by that statistic. While I am pro-trans, I was very much of an impression that they were way more prominent in zoomers, or that at the least a shit ton of zoomers pretended to be trans when they weren't as a sort of cultural expression thing, especially with how most breadtubers suddenly became majority trans over a year or so. Guess they just are a really lound minority.

Nazis literally kept records of fucking everything that went on in those camps, it was already documented that nazis had deliberately made propaganda films of those camps portraying them as resorts for jews to hide what was actually going on in their, starvation and rampant illness was one of the leading causes of death next to gas chambers in those camps especially late in the war when the nazis were running low on funds. Yes 6 million did fucking die in their along with another 9 million non jews comprising of soviet and north western european prisoners and gypsies, you have to be a complete spergeloard schizo to miss this
