Empire’s Favorite Lie: Michael Parenti, Anti-Communism, and the Moral Alibi of Capital

Wall Street vs. the Soviets: Sutton’s Banker Puppet-Show and the Class War He Tries to Hide
Sutton replaces workers, soldiers, and soviets with bankers and boardrooms, turning revolution into elite theater.

When Empire Kidnaps and the Left Blinks: Alex Callinicos, Venezuela, and the Politics of Conditional Anti-Imperialism
In his January 6, 2026 article in Socialist Worker, Alex Callinicos condemns the U.S. seizure of Venezuela’s president as a brutal assertion of hemispheric dominance, while simultaneously advancing a line that blames the Bolivarian process itself for its vulnerability. This essay takes Callinicos’ argument seriously—and then dismantles it—showing how a rhetoric of anti-imperialism can reproduce... Continue Reading →

Towards a New Political Science: Politics as the Science of Power
A rupture with procedural political science and canonical abstraction, this essay reconstructs politics as the scientific study of power—how it is accumulated, organized, enforced, and resisted—drawing on revolutionary praxis, settler colonial history, and imperial crisis to redefine what political theory is, who produces it, and what it is for.
