The Fool Who Moved the Mountains Still Walks Among Us: China’s Long March to Socialism and the Emergence of the Multipolar World Order

From Mao’s seizure of sovereignty to Xi’s effort to discipline capital, China’s modern history is neither a fall from revolutionary purity nor a smooth ascent into capitalism, but a protracted socialist struggle through contradiction.

Cuba Will Not Kneel: Trump, The New York Times, and the Contradictions of the American Pole

The New York Times launders U.S. regime-change demands into the language of negotiation, masking domination as diplomacy. Beneath the narrative, a coordinated campaign of economic strangulation—especially through energy chokepoints—reveals deliberate coercion, not Cuban failure. This pressure is part of a broader imperial recalibration: the consolidation of Fortress America as a hemispheric bloc under U.S. control.... Continue Reading →

NBC’s Cuba Narrative and the Siege It Refuses to See

Capital’s Emergency Exit: Michael Parenti, Fascism, and the War on Class Memory

When Empire Smiles, Check Your Pockets: The Myth of a Trump–Rodríguez “Reset”

CNN wants the reader to see a new partnership forming in Caracas: a phone call, oil talk, CIA photo-ops, deportations back on schedule.

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 →

Who Owns Venezuela?

Trump’s claim that Venezuela “stole” U.S. oil is not a gaffe or exaggeration—it is an imperial verdict. This essay dismantles that claim by tracing the conflict over Venezuela’s resources through international law, the neoliberal wreckage of the pre-Chávez era, the Bolivarian rupture, Maduro’s Plan de la Patria, and María Corina Machado’s restoration blueprint. What emerges... Continue Reading →
