The Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) condemns in the strongest terms the brazen US military takeover of the Oyster Bay in Palawan. The once peaceful community of small fishermen has now been overrun by US soldiers with their giant war arsenal.
The Oyster Bay now serves as a forward base for US imperialist provocations against China. It is just one of the latest in the long list of locations the Marcos regime has handed over to US armed forces, putting Filipino lives and livelihoods in even more danger.
Since 2020, the US has been quietly upgrading its facilities in Oyster Bay. Working with the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), the US developed the Oyster Bay Naval Detachment where it can dock, repair and resupply its naval warships. On March this year, the US Congress authorized the release of up to $5 million to complete repairs to the naval detachment so it could fully serve US manned and unmanned surface vehicles.
Hundreds of local fisherfolk have lost their sole source of livelihood as US warships and military exercises turn Oyster Bay’s waters into a toxic playground for US war games. Rich marine life and fragile coral reefs, the lifeblood of Palawan’s fisheries, are being destroyed. The environmental damage from US naval waste is both permanent and unacceptable.
Oyster Bay is now being used as a launchpad for so-called “freedom of navigation operations” of US military forces in the South China Sea. It serves the joint naval exercises being conducted by the US with Australia and Japan, in conjunction with operations from Subic Bay.
Oyster Bay now serves as a key node in the sprawling US military web across the Philippines—a network of military bases and facilities, ports, airfields, as well as storage facilities and factories for war. The recently announced plans to manufacture drones and produce ammunition in Aurora and Subic will further deepen US military entrenchment in the country.
The rapidly increasing US military presence in the Philippines is absolutely not about defending the country’s sovereignty. This is about turning the Philippines into a fortification for US imperialist hegemony and a springboard for the so-called Indo-Pacific Strategy, positioning the country as a key link in the US “first island chain” strategy to contain the growth of its imperialist rival China.
The Marcos regime’s gross subservience to US geopolitical strategy has allowed the US to drag the country into its hegemonic schemes and war plans. Marcos’ betrayal of the nation’s sovereignty has placed the country’s security in jeopardy. Regional security is under threat.
The Party firmly unites with the Filipino people in the fight against US imperialist aggression in the country. It is imperative that we raise our voices to make a powerful demand for the immediate dismantling of all US military bases, and the expulsion of all US forces from Oyster Bay, all of Palawan, and the entire Philippines. We must hold Marcos accountable and make him pay dearly for this betrayal.
The Filipino people must act now as nation’s sovereignty and future are at stake.

BREAKING: Trump has privately encouraged Ukraine to 'step up deep strikes on Russian territory' and asked Zelensky if 'he could strike Moscow', according to Financial Times report.
“Reform #Capitalism: Tax the Rich”
Well, let’s see what “reform” means, but we’ll analyze it with an example.
#Slavery.
Towards the end of slavery in #US, in the North there were two trends.
The #revolutionary one that called for the complete abolition of slavery and then there were the “reformers”.
What did they demand?
Better food and better clothing for the slaves.
But there would still be slaves.
So?
Are you still in favor of the petty-bourgeois reform of Capitalism?

latest #distrochallenge candidate idea for me,
keeping my no-systemd rule, thus keeps many distros ruled out,
if i also add, none of my standard dependable 4 (artix, devuan, gentoo, void),
what would i go for?
yus, still bedrock... but perhaps also could limit it to static libs distros and bsd style packaging and init...
CRUX, i imagine as the hijack core i'd build around, as i figure out what other exotic lesser-known distros fit.
KISS, Carbs, joborun, spring to mind too. As does stali, but, that's not really a distro, and long abandoned.
maybe if i limit respins and distros based on other distros, so even carbs and joborun are out. i know carbs is independent, and has its own package manager, but, it's nearer KISS than guixsd is to nixos, or funtoo is to gentoo. joborun too, impressive and appealing an independent direction it's taking, is still basically an arch derivative, not sufficiently distinct again from the likes of parabola, artix, obarun and the arch respins for my tightened criteria here (~ otherwise, it'd make a strong 2nd most used stratum).
and i've had the idea of all the little distros already (my post on this just prior, 19 days ago)... so it's not that kind of thing i'm going for here.
would be looking more to independent distros ( distrowatch.com/search.php?ost… )...
they may be little, but, not the cute little, if you know what i mean. (not slax, slitaz, puppy, dsl, tinycore, etc)
like ideally they're focussed on a solid core, and their minimal system's top priority, and comes available as a rootfs tarball ready to deploy as a stratum. ... heh, maybe that should be the only criteria.
well, it's fun to think about, but shant be making any hasty moves on this today.
... okies, food will be burning if i dont hop afk to it now.

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio #Lula da Silva has defended #fossilfuel exploration, saying he would not unilaterally halt exploring #Brazil ’s riches to the detriment of the nation’s development.
In June, Brazil’s oil regulator agency ANP auctioned off 34 blocks for exploration, largely to multinational corporations, including Chevron, ExxonMobil and China’s CNPC. More than half the blocks are in the #Amazon Delta.

"According to ICE datasets analyzed by the Los Angeles Times, during the first 10 days of June, ICE arrested 722 undocumented immigrants in California. Of those, 70% had never been convicted of a crime. The trend undermines claims that the raids are targeting 'the worst of the worst.'”
"Instead, the arrests disproportionately affect working-class immigrants with no criminal records. Among them is the father of a U.S. Marine, who was beaten and detained at his landscaping job. In another case, a Marine’s wife, Paola, who arrived in the U.S. as a child seeking asylum, was arrested during an immigration appointment."
"These are not hardened criminals. They are street vendors, day laborers, and families struggling to make ends meet. In Los Angeles’ Koreatown neighborhood, many undocumented immigrants now face a dire choice: stay home to avoid arrest or risk their freedom to put food on the table."
