Anarchism was always anti-imperialist while Marx and Engels supported 19th-century liberal imperialism.

I have noticed that in relatively recent times the sex worker rights movement has grown significantly. I expect this to escalate in the same way that the gay rights and trans rights movements did previously and, like the TERFs vs trans conflict, the SWERFs vs sex workers conflict […]
This post from a social media site nails it as far as how the level of “freedom,” “democracy,” “human rights,” etc. of the USA should be evaluated. While it’s true we also have a large lumpenproletarian “underclass,” anyone in the USA who is middle class or above in […]
What’s interesting about this case from England is that the offender is not some football hooligan with a BNP membership but a young African woman who is probably either an immigrant or the descendent of very recent immigrants. Look for more conflicts of this kind as the size […]
The woke vs. anti-woke back and forth is so reminiscent of the 80s’ rendition of culture war politics, pitting the moral majoritarians who were convinced America was becoming Sodom and Gomorrah against the liberals who thought the US was on the verge of a theocratic revolution led by […]

I generally agree with Gramsci’s theory of revolution even if I don’t share many of his political views.
