The Beijing summit epitomizes the unraveling of American supremacy, as Donald Trump arrived not merely as a president, but as a messenger of an empire in disarray. The spectacle of diplomatic niceties belied a crumbling global landscape, where the U.S. seeks containment while its capital cravenly craves access to China's vast markets. The summit revealed profound contradictions: America, armed yet impotent, involved in a tech war while reliant on the very infrastructure it seeks to undermine. As the Atlantic order falters, a multipolar era teeters on the edge, with ideological fractures foreshadowing a future fraught with uncertainty—yet, fertile for revolutionary possibilities.
Code and Conquest: The Technological Republic and the Blueprint for a New Imperial Order
In Weaponized Intellects' scathing review of The Technological Republic, Karp and Zamiska unveil a chilling trajectory where Silicon Valley's crisis morphs into a blueprint for imperial tech dominance. They argue for an alliance between state power and engineering prowess to reinforce U.S. supremacy, shedding liberalism in favor of militaristic ingenuity. What transpires is a dissection of consumer capitalism’s futility, advocating for weaponized AI to restore glory. This critique masquerades as patriotic duty while advocating technofascism—a seamless marriage of capital and state. In rejecting this, the revolution must neither accept imperial myths nor a hollow liberalism, but fight for a world where tech serves humanity, not dominance.

Critics timidly label this brewing authoritarianism but fail to pinpoint the machinery at work. As anti-immigrant systems and military strategies fuse, resistance is evolving. It’s time to unite disparate struggles against this creeping technofascism, transforming scattered dissent into a powerful, coordinated force ready to dismantle the system that seeks to dominate us all.
Capital vs. the Commons: The War on Women, Land, and the World Proletariat
This Weaponized Intellects review of Caliban and the Witch by Silvia Federici excavates how capitalism emerged not as progress, but as a counter-revolution forged through land theft, colonial conquest, and the violent subjugation of women’s bodies. It traces the medieval struggles of peasants, workers, and heretics to show that another world was not only imagined—but... Continue Reading →
Precolonial Black Africa: Cheikh Anta Diop and the Destruction of Eurocentric History
Cheikh Anta Diop’s Precolonial Black Africa shows—through hard historical evidence—that Africa followed its own material pathway to complex civilization, disproving Europe as the universal model and exposing Western Marxism’s blind spots. For today’s revolutionaries, Diop arms us with the historical clarity needed to dismantle colonial ideology and rebuild a truly internationalist, anti-imperialist science of liberation....
