Hello leftypol, we noticed an under-appreciation for the theory that upholds our political ideologies: As such, we have decided to revive the reading sticky! This thread will be dedicated to the sharing, discussing, and general banter about various leftist thinkers, theories, and political outlooks.

But, other than that, we believe there are other important reads that must be addressed, especially, for beginners and those just now getting into leftism.

Don't forget to check out >>>/edu/ for more reading and discussion!

Haven't read it but there's a book called Savage Peace by Ann Hagedorn that covers the chaos of 1919, including race riots and the red scare

I have often heard it said that the FBI took over Communist Party USA back during the Cold War, and that the organization is now used as a honeypot to trap socialists. Is this true?

The lack of a sufficiently underground, militant wing of CPUSA is arguably why the party got so thoroughly wrecked by the feds' purges. It's how we got to the point of having an 'army without a party' in the 1960s and 1970s with groups encompassing the NCM.

get fucked and try harder, you know what is meant: the CPC successfully seized the means of production. they're not a plucky little band of Chileans who were elected to office in an already capitalist country. there's a major private sector in China today because they chose to incubate it long after they'd taken power, not because they were stuck with it due to the conditions under which they took power.

not even anti-china, just think you ended on a fucking stupid note

>Over the following weeks, Himmler's Gestapo, driven by a furious Hitler, rounded up nearly everyone who had the remotest connection with the plot. The discovery of letters and diaries in the homes and offices of those arrested revealed the plots of 1938, 1939, and 1943, and this led to further rounds of arrests, including that of colonel general Franz Halder, who finished the war in a concentration camp. Under Himmler's new Sippenhaft (blood guilt) laws, many relatives of the principal plotters were also arrested in the immediate aftermath of the failed plot.

>More than 7,000 people were arrested and 4,980 were executed. Not all of them were connected with the plot, since the Gestapo used the occasion to settle scores with many other people suspected of opposition sympathies

Oppose the right-wing campaign against vaccination!
>Under conditions of the global pandemic of a lethal virus, mass vaccination is an elementary requirement of public health and for the self-defense of the working class.
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2021/07/29/pers-j29.html

As this statement indicates, particularly in its concluding section, there are definite social and historical conditions under which the right-wing and libertarian campaign against vaccination finds an echo within layers of the working class, including its poorest sections. There is ignorance and social backwardness, there is also growing alienation, and tendency to reflexively distrust authority, to make no distinction between the government and the scientists. This feeds a general fatalism. It can only take root in the absence of any class consciousness. As the statement indicates, the struggle is not simply a medical issue. The last few paragraphs here are really crucial.

I'm not exactly sure if i can post this here, since it might just be disregarded as idpol, but what would be the anarchist solution to abortion? It sounds simple to say that it's within the freedom of the woman to abort, but isn't it also taking the freedom away from the fetus?

Just because the whole “Anti-Lockdown” ideology is a petite capitalist one Dosent mean you can just discredit every person taking part in these demonstrations as some some sort of “Far-right bad orange man supporting C H U D”.

because our governement is absolutely hated,and they were doing a big "you can choose if you want to take the vaccine" to cover up not having enough of them,and are now making it mandatory to go to most public places,and basically treat mediatically all people who aren't sure about vaccines like they're retarded children who should do what they're told.
If you can't see why this ends up in being strongly anti-vaccine even if it's not the correct stance to take,I don't know what to tell you.
For myself I have been convinced by actual studies that some e-celeb affiliated with one of our more niche "left" newspaper actually gave talking about the delta variant and how vaccines interact with it,there is no longer any pretense of educating anybody in our traditional media,it's pure hammering of the truth into your skull until you uphold reactionary tendencies or accept it unconditionnaly.
Also having to take multiple shots,while they're is talk about new variants that could mean you have to take another one after,and dealing with our current circus one more time is not tolerable by one part of it.
Unironical critical support for the anti-vaxxers,it's the governement fault they don't want to be vaccinated and the only one who is at fault,not "alternative medias" who are actually willing to educate (wrongly) people instead of treating them like dirt.

Weißt du wer sich die Idee der "Kulturellen Aneignung" (Cultural Appropriation) ausgedacht hat? Die Nazis! Die Nazis haben auch jüdischen Musikern verboten, "deutsche Musik" aufzuführen! Die Nazis haben "undeutsche" und "unarische" Musik verboten, um die deutsche Kultur "rein" zu halten! Aus exakt dem selben Gründen verbieten die Wokies Weißen Dreadlocks zu tragen. Sind die ideologischen Parallelen zu den gestirgen Nazis und zu den woken pseudo-linken Faschisten der Gegenwart nicht offensichtlich?
