NATO’s Self-Fulfilling Prophecy; How Encirclement Forged the Russia–China Alliance

DER SPIEGEL's investigation into military cooperation between Russia and China is more than just a mere report; it's an embodiment of the West's narrative that casts these nations as the new "axis of evil." This framing is less about honesty and more about justifying aggressive military posturing and sanctions against perceived threats. The true danger lies not in an orientation towards war, but in an imperial system that, in its quest for domination, fuels the very alliances it fears. The article critiques this perspective, urging a grassroots movement to challenge militarism and push for a redirection of resources towards societal needs instead of war machinery.

Democracy With a Gun to Your Head: George Jackson and the American Fascist Order

George Jackson wrote from inside the cage and exposed the system beyond it. In Blood in My Eye, prison, property, racial domination, monopoly capital, and imperial war appear not as separate problems but as parts of one American order. Jackson’s theory of secure fascism revealed how counterrevolution can rule through elections, reform, consumerism, surveillance, and controlled opposition as effectively as open terror. His strategic errors matter too: revolutionary potential is not consciousness, and militant initiative cannot substitute for organized mass power. This review recovers Jackson as a living weapon—one to be studied, sharpened, corrected, and returned to the struggle.

The Dream on Layaway: How Capital Repossessed American Adulthood

The "Great Postponement" isn't just about delayed dreams; it signals a devastating structural collapse for young adults trapped in a never-ending cycle of dependency and disempowerment. Despite holding jobs, many remain shackled to their parents' homes, unable to participate fully in adulthood due to spiraling rents and crippling inequality. The system deliberately obscures the true nature of this crisis, homogenizing individual struggles into mere statistics while upholding a status quo drenched in inherited privilege and racial disparity. The solution lies in organizing tenant unions and collective action—because waiting for change is no longer an option. The American Dream is not postponed; it's been stolen.

The World Got Richer, You Didn’t: Capitalism’s Quadrillion-Dollar Balance-Sheet Lie

Fortune says “global households” became $40 trillion richer in 2025. But when the richest 10 percent already own three-quarters of the world’s wealth, that headline is less a report than a magic trick. The new abundance came largely from rising equities, inflated asset values and expanding financial claims—not from productive investment or improved living standards. Behind the quadrillion-dollar balance sheet lies a system where private fortunes swell while public wealth stagnates, workers lose power, tenants lose security and the Global South services the debts of the imperial core. This is not shared prosperity. It is class power written in the language of accounting.

Free Trade Behind Barbed Wire: Europe’s Treaty War on China

The Council on Foreign Relations claims Europe must “take on China” to save free trade. Behind that contradiction lies a wider campaign to turn tariffs, export controls, investment screening and trade agreements into a coordinated architecture of containment. Western governments subsidize their own industries while treating Chinese planning and technological advance as violations of the market. This essay exposes how “free trade” becomes selective access for European capital and selective restriction for China, tracing the struggle back to imperial domination and forward to the danger of economic war becoming military confrontation. The answer is organization before the fine print becomes a front line.

The Empire Calls Resistance Subversion: Cuba and Washington’s War on Revolutionary Consciousness

The State Department's report conflates documented espionage with a sweeping indictment of social movements, branding students, revolutionaries, and dissenters as part of a conspiracy orchestrated from Cuba. This narrative denies local struggles against oppression, instead framing resistance as a foreign-directed plot, thus erasing historical context and the material origins of dissent. The document's loose connection between Cuba's influence and contemporary activism serves as a McCarthyite tool against American dissent. By equating genuine political engagement with espionage, it aims to squash revolutionary consciousness and reinforce the status quo, revealing the empire's fear that the oppressed might unite and resist independently.

Public Money, Private Command: The State Returns to Rescue Capital

Washington's recent equity stakes in key corporations like Intel signal capitalism's failure rather than a shift towards socialism. While the government assumes control over critical industries, it simultaneously excludes workers from labor and decision-making roles. The stated objective is national security, but this forms part of a broader imperial strategy that intertwines military needs with corporate interests. The public funds the industrial system while remaining marginalized, illustrating a profound contradiction: social production is maintained under corporate control. As America grapples with its economic decline, the push for a more equitable structure is vital. It's time for public investment to translate into worker empowerment and community authority.

The Foreign Enemy Fraud: From Russiagate’s Thought Police to Chinagate’s Electoral Cage

David Corn's resurrection of Russiagate in response to Trump's accusations of Chinagate exposes the absurdity of electoral politics in a billionaire-dominated America. By framing the discourse as a conflict between foreign adversaries—Russia or China—Corn obscures the true culprits: a corrupt ruling class manipulating the political system to protect its interests. Both narratives serve to distract the populace from the reality of a plutocracy masquerading as democracy. The ongoing chaos is but a struggle within the elite, each side reinforcing the structures of oppression while preventing real power from reaching the working class. True resistance demands unity against this imperial façade.

The Guardrails Are a Cage: AI, Surplus Humanity, and the Technofascist State

Hundreds of economists warn that artificial intelligence could displace millions of workers, but their petition mistakes a ruling-class offensive for a technical oversight. AI is already being used to reduce workforces, intensify surveillance, automate discipline, exclude applicants, restrict public benefits, and strengthen military and counterinsurgency systems. The real danger is not that machines may escape human control, but that monopoly capital is using them to reduce its dependence on labor while expanding the apparatus needed to manage those it renders surplus. Against this technofascist future, workers are organizing to seize control over deployment, data, productivity, and power.

Communists and Patriots: The Flag, the Class, and the Lie of Imperial Nationalism

Trump says you can be a communist or a patriot—but not both. This essay exposes the historical fraud buried inside that slogan. By reconstructing the nation through historical materialism, it shows that nationalism has never possessed a fixed political content. In oppressed nations, communists repeatedly became the truest patriots because the struggle for national liberation demanded the overthrow of colonialism, imperialism, and comprador rule. In imperialist nations, however, nationalism serves the opposite function: binding workers to the ruling class and its global system of domination. The real contradiction is not between communism and patriotism, but between imperial patriotism and the liberation of the people.
