The Free Man and the Human Commodity: Britain’s Liberty Grew Inside a Slave Order

Britain’s slave trade wasn’t a barbaric side story to the rise of modern freedom. It was woven into the property system through which merchants, investors and institutions accumulated wealth while African captives were turned into human commodities. Parliament widened access to the trade, slave-linked fortunes entered industry, science and philanthropy, and abolition later compensated former owners while forcing the formerly enslaved through apprenticeship. The deeper contradiction wasn’t simply freedom versus slavery, but a society where the freedom of property holders could expand through the unfreedom of the owned. Today, reparations movements are reopening that buried ledger.

Marx and Engels Against Their Own Ghosts: The German Ideology and the Fight to Keep Materialism Inside History

Marx and Engels' The German Ideology brutally uncovers the egregious folly of detaching philosophy from material conditions. They weaponize critiques of German idealists, exposing how revolutionary thought that ignores the tangible, lived experiences of class struggle morphs into mere ideology. Highlighting the perils of alienation, they assert that human powers can unwittingly turn oppressive when subjected to capitalist structures. Moreover, they admonish socialists who, by elevating abstract ideas above real movements, dilute the revolutionary essence of their theories. In a world increasingly interlinked yet profoundly unequal, their insistence on rooting ideas in concrete history remains a clarion call for genuine transformation against ideological hauntings.

The New York Times’ China Guy: How Kevin Rudd Manufactures an Imperial Xi Jinping

The New York Times promises to explain what Xi Jinping wants, but its interview with former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd performs a far more revealing task: it manufactures imperial expertise while burying the history that produced modern China. Through credential laundering, great-man theory, the caricature of Marxism, and the erasure of colonialism, China is reduced to the psychology of one leader instead of understood as the product of revolution, socialist construction and a century-long struggle against imperial domination. This Weaponized Propaganda Excavation dismantles the interview piece by piece, exposing how liberal media transforms ideology into common sense while presenting it as objective analysis.

The Political Economy of Imperial Feminism: Iran Beyond the Propaganda

The West does not give a damn about women in West Asia. It cries for Iranian women because Iran is an enemy, then sells bombs to kings, bankrolls apartheid, protects dictators, sanctions civilians, and calls the whole rotten business human rights. Iran has contradictions, but those contradictions belong to Iranian women and Iranian society to struggle over — not to Washington, NATO, or the white ruling class. Real internationalism starts at home, against the empire that turns women’s suffering into ammunition.

No Pride in Empire: Seattle’s Rainbow Classroom and the World Cup War Machine

The Seattle Pride Match is not just a progressive celebration but a vehicle for imperial propaganda, co-opting the cultural struggles of predominantly Muslim nations like Iran and Egypt. This event frames the West as a moral authority while masking the brutal realities of sanctions, military finance, and surveillance that underpin these dynamics. The local organizers, corporate sponsors, and FIFA collaborate to transform a football match into a colonial lesson, undermining the very values they profess to uphold. The real challenge lies in recognizing this manipulation and reframing the narrative: embracing genuine solidarity and resistance against imperial structures, rather than succumbing to an illusion of moral superiority.

Farm Raids, Forced Displacement, and the Colonial Border Regime

Politico’s sentimental framing erases the system behind the raids. Deportations function as economic warfare, not law enforcement. ICE is the front line of a technofascist labor recalibration strategy. Real resistance means land back, abolition, and working-class insurrection.

Erasing Justice, Reclaiming Land: The USDA, Technofascism, and the War on Black Farmers

Capital B’s coverage launders settler policy as neutral bureaucracy, masking a colonial offensive. The USDA’s rollback is not reform—it is the continuation of a land war to suppress Black nationhood. Bureaucratic neutrality and algorithmic governance now serve as tools of settler-colonial pacification. Internal colonies are organizing across digital, agricultural, and political fronts to reclaim sovereignty.... Continue Reading →
