Friedrich Engels: Fifthly, there is absolutely no mention of the organization of the working class as a class through the medium of trade unions. And that is a point of the utmost importance, this being the proletariat’s true class organization in which it fights its daily battles with capital, in which it trains itself and which nowadays can no longer simply be smashed, even with reaction at its worst (as presently in Paris). wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.

I think one of the major engines of disintegration in the West is our media establishment.
From normalizing Israel's genocide to platforming fascists to burying plagues, they've done the real heavy lifting required for all the worst effects of the run-up to Trump's regime and the rise of Maga.
As the mid-term effects of Trump's EOs start accumulating, they'll avoid the ground floor and talk only to people who are doing "alright". They'll "balance" their coverage so that the misery seems okay.
Their attitude reflects our society's attitude toward data: absent context, it's without substance, but still incredibly useful.
The context of suffering in the US skyrocketing under Trump will be lost, but the "data" that people are "both succeeding and hurting under this administration" will be first page shit.
In this way, the media normalizes Trump's horrific acts. And will continue to do so until the impacts are so widespread and terrible that even their smoothbrain blindness is pierced.
Bir çok erkekten duydum ki, hayatında akıllı bir kadın arıyormuş.
Ben her zaman bunun gibi insanları düşünmeye teşvik ederim...
Akıllı kadınlar kendi kararlarını verir, kendi arzularına sahip olur ve kendi sınırlarını belirler.
Asla onun hayatının merkezi olamayacaksın çünkü onun kendi merkezi var. Akıllı bir kadın size asla onu manipüle etme veya şantaj yapma hakkını vermez. Sorumluluğu üstleniyor.
Akıllı kadınlar tartışır, analiz eder, savaşır. Bir yerde durmazlar, ilerlerlerlerler.
Akıllı kadınların senden önce de hayatı vardı ve bil ki sen gittikten sonra da yaşayacaklar.
Seni uyarıyor, izin isteme.
Çiftlerde akıllı kadınlar takip edecek bir lider, hayat sorunlarını çözecek bir baba, yetiştirecek bir çocuk aramıyor. Ne seni takip etmek ister, ne de ileriye yürüyüp senin için yol açmak.
Tam yanında yürümek istiyorlar.
Şiddetsiz bir hayatın ayrıcalık ya da lüks değil, hak olduğunu biliyorlar.
Öfke, üzüntü, sevinç ve korkuyu dile getirirler, çünkü bilirler ki, korku onları zayıflatmaz, öfkenin de onları "adam"a dönüştürmez. Bu duyguların ikisi de, diğer her şey de onları insan yapar. İşte bütün mesele bu.
Akıllı bir kadın özgürdür çünkü özgürlüğü için savaşmıştır. O bir kurban değil, o bir hayatta kalan.
Asla onu yakalamaya çalışma çünkü o mutlaka kaçmasını bilecektir.
Akıllı bir kadın değerinin vücut şekline göre olmadığını bilir. Bu yüzden yaşı, boyu, şekilleri ve cinselliği hakkında bir şey söylemeden önce dikkatli düşünün. Çünkü bu duygusal istismar ve o bunu biliyor.
Yani "hayatında akıllı bir kadın arıyorsun" demeden önce kendine onun hayatına yerleşmeye hazır mısın diye sor.

**Pour rafraîchir la mémoire de notre présidente du Sénat, Yaël Braun-Pivet, mais aussi celle de tous ces acteurs-réalisateurs artistes franco-israélien comme Yvan Attal, Gérard Darmon, Patrick Bruel, Enrico Macias , Bernard-Henri Lévy ( philosophe et cinéaste ) et d'autres toujours prompt à crier à l'antisémitisme dés que l'on critique et condamne le Gouvernement Netanyahou , et qui se sont abstenus le jour de l'ouverture du Festival de Cannes de signer la Tribune des 400 personnalités du monde du Cinéma pour dénoncer la politique criminelle de Netanyahou à Gaza et en Cisjordanie : OUI il y a un apartheid criminel en Israël ! **
Quand l'ancien directeur du Mossad , de 2011 à 2016, Tamir Pardo , déclare , d'abord à l'agence Associated Press début septembre 2023, que " Israël impose un régime d'apartheid aux Palestiniens à la hauteur de l'ancienne Afrique du Sud ", l'ancien chef du Mossad sait pertinemment que sa déclaration va marquer la fin d'un consensus national en Israël, compte tenu de l'estime qu'ont les israéliens vis à vis de leurs services secrets et de renseignements comme le Mossad. Tamir Pardo réitérera cette déclaration à la chaîne de télévision israélienne Canal12 en ajoutant que " l'apartheid en Israël a toujours été dans l'intérêt des colons et des partis d'extrême -droite qui entourent Netanyahou et qui s'efforcent d'anéantir toute perspective d'un État palestinien indépendant ". Or , ajoute-t-il " l'occupation permanente menée par Israël menace son existence. La priorité du gouvernement devrait être la question palestinienne ". L'ancien chef des services secrets israélien se joint ainsi à un nombre croissant de personnalités juives en Israël et aux États-Unis, comme l'ancien président du parlement israélien Avraham Burg et le célèbre historien israélien Benny Morris ( cité par le journal de gauche israélien " Haaretz" et le journal britannique "The Guardian" ) qui ont signé une déclaration publique avec plus de 2000 autres personnalités pour dire que " OUI les Palestiniens vivent sous un régime d'apartheid ... et que si Israël veut se faire respecter dans le monde , il faut qu'il règle d'abord la question palestinienne en créant un État palestinien " à ses côtés et en se lançant dans un vaste mouvement de réconciliation ... #FestivaldeCannes2025
Claim of Action by Provocateurs of the Social Peace: We Do Not Forget – We Do Not Forgive The State Capitalist Murder at Tempi
Following the large rallies for Tempi that took place on 28/2 and the riot outbreak, especially in Athens, in the early hours of Tuesday 4/3 we carried out a symbolic attack with colors at the branch of the Ministry of Transport in Piraeus, at 5 AIGALEO Street, at the building of the Attica Regional Administration-Regional Administration of Piraeus and Islands.
The Ministry of Transport is the relevant state body responsible for the train collision in Tempi, as the ministry responsible for all transportation infrastructure.
The issue of the state-capitalist murder of 57 people in Tempe and the injury of at least 87 others came to the fore again two years later, with the publication of expert findings, which refer to the presence of flammable (illegaly transported) materials on the train, which are related to the explosion that followed the collision of the two trains.
Subsequently, public discourse was flooded with petitions “against the (government) cover-up” and with the demand “for the truth to shine” and “for justice to be served”.
However, the cover-up, although obvious, is not something new and does not only concern this specific case, but constitutes a permanent and timeless practice of every authority. Along with deception, concealment, manipulation, blackmail, oppression and exploitation, to secure and perpetuate the privileges of wealth and power. That is why, as a political slogan, the “NO COVER-UP” directly refers to populism.
And who will make the truth shine? The officials of the state and the institutional network, among them the prosecutors and the judges? The government or opposition members? The party and journalist bureaus? All those who speak the language of lies at all times? All those who seek “social peace” for the smooth functioning of the state/capitalist system? Or perhaps those who seek the mediation and representation of the social base, advertising their experience and mechanisms as administrators of the social-class struggles?
Language and words have long since lost their social meaning. With the latest leap into the void, the spread of social media, where the circulation of all kinds of nonsense and disorientation became an “undeniable democratic right” of a hypnotized social majority that avoids the oxygen and responsibility of social-class confrontation and liberation against a state/capitalist system that is increasingly barbaric and deadly. Ending up suffocating by limiting itself to complaints and protests, which refer to a request for the purification and gentrification of a system that cannot improve but can only be overturned.
Because how exactly will justice be delivered when JUSTICE constitutes one of the three pillars of the modern-contemporary state along with the legislative and executive powers? When it reflects and represents the Right of the Powerful? When it constitutes a basic institution-mechanism for the defense of the dominant -politically and economically- classes and their interests? The famous Rule of Law is nothing but the carrier and guarantor of social injustice.
The alternative to the issue of social justice is for the exploited and oppressed social groups, classes and individuals to assert their rights and confront injustice by developing our collective power, intelligence and vision that will seek to overthrow the oppressors and executioners and create a non-violent, classless, authority-less communal organization of life. Moreover, the essential indicator of the crisis of the state/capitalist system is the degree of development, consciousness,organization and action of the forces that seek to destroy it.
Until then, we will remind you that references to the murderous nature of the state and capitalist machine and the way they treat us as expendable cannot be limited and exhausted in Tempi. The dead workers in the so-called “work accidents” (179 in 2023, 114 in 2024 and many more disabled) cannot be missing and excluded. The Roma people murdered by the police cannot be missing and excluded, such as Michalopoulos in Thiva during a simple police check, Frangoulis in Thessaloniki for 20 euros of gasoline, Sampanis in Perama for a stolen car.
The hundreds of migrants who have drowned due to push-backs by the Greek coast guard or have been found murdered in police stations, such as Mohamed Kamran Asik on 21/9/2024 at the A.T. Agios Panteleimonas, a well-known hellhole of humiliations, beatings and torture of migrants, cannot be left out and excluded.
Have we ever thought about how the 600 migrants who were in the hold of the fishing boat off Pylos on 14/6/2023 must have felt in their last seconds? The feeling of suffocation and lack of oxygen when it capsized and sank to the bottom, at a depth exceeding 5000 meters, due to the mooring and the attempt to tow it out of Greek territorial waters by the coast guard?
Two years ago, a slogan for Tempi correctly stated: WE DO NOT HAVE NATIONAL MOURNING, WE HAVE SOCIAL-CLASS WAR. While an older slogan said:
ACTION REPLACES TEARS. We would add, with the background of our insurrectional sensitivity and the driving force of consciousness for the conquest of freedom. Against all authority. Against state, capital, racism, nationalism, patriarchy.

Stellt euch vor Russland dürfte beim ESC antreten und würde als Sängerin ein Überlebende eines Angriffes des Azov-Battalions auftreten lassen, um von ihrer traurigen Geschichte eines Nazi-Überfalls zu berichten.
Jede Person würde sofort erkennen, dass es sich dabei um eine politische Instrumentalisierung handelt, dass die Nazi-Sympathien und Vergangenheit des Azov-Battalions des ukrainischen Militärs zwar gut dokumentiert sind, aber keineswegs dieses repräsentiert und in großen Teilen nur aufgebracht werden um Russland's Angriffskrieg im Namen der „Entnazifizierung” zu rechtfertigen. Jede rationale Person würde fordern das diese Bühne zum Schutz vor Überpolitisierung und Legitimierung eines Kriegs nicht gegeben wird.
Aber bei Israel ist das etwas ganz anderes. Vor wenigen Tagen noch die Übernahme des gesamten Gazastreifens bekanntgeben, Vorgestern noch ~150 Menschen in einem Tag umbringen weil Nakba-Gedenktag ist, die Todeszahlen steigen auf 53.000 an und 2.000.000 Menschen sind auf der Flucht. Keine Nothilfe, keine Nahrung, kein Wasser. Doch auf dem ESC besingen wollen das man selbst das Opfer ist.

„Ich persönlich finde, es macht keinen Sinn, dass Israel im Moment Teil des Eurovision ist“, sagte Nemo der britischen „Huffpost“. Das Vorgehen Israels verstoße „grundlegend gegen die Werte, die Eurovision hochzuhalten vorgibt – Frieden, Einheit und Achtung der Menschenrechte.“

Er beklagte zudem eine zunehmende anti-israelische Hetze gegen israelische Künstlerinnen und Künstler und verurteilte entsprechende Aktionen.
