Not sure, I don’t remember seeing them on the ballot.

Communist Party of Canada called it a genocide too, they got my vote. For Singh I think it was a case of far too little and far too late.

Jagmeet Singh, leader of the federal NDP in Canada, has officially conceded defeat in his riding which has been taken by the Liberals.

The NDP itself is also losing official party status as they were unable to gain 12 or more seats, and will be unable to access certain funds and lose special parliamentary privileges.

Since their high water mark of being the Official Opposition after the 2011 election under Jack Layton, the NDP has triangulated itself to what we see today: a party that refused to leave the shadow of the Liberals.

This piece of shit played every 5 minutes on tv during each Canadian hockey game and every time i saw it i got a little more

I’d say that historically fascism is a somewhat nebulous term that tries to cover a few disparate movements, but generally speaking has been a capitalist response to a rising domestic communist movement, and so in Marxism has a very specific/scientific meaning in that regard. So without that movement in the United States currently existing Trump doesn’t qualify in my opinion.

Really hope they aren’t trying to say that linguistic influence from other cultures makes a language “cucked”

Gonna go out on a limb and say you don’t actually hate the ultra right as much as us lmao

It’s not a whole book, but I would refer you to chapter 4 of Michael Roberts book on capital crises and profitability. That chapter deals specifically with the commonly defined western neoliberal era. If you like that bit, then I’d recommend the entire thing if you want to know why and how crises are generated as a baked in symptom of capitalism in its search for profitability.

Otherwise, I know David Harvey has a book called a Brief History of Neoliberalism. I read it a few years ago but can’t remember enough to specifically recommend it. Worth noting that Harvey doesn’t consider himself to technically be a Marxist afaik.

If you’re talking about the episode Three Slaps, that was actually based on a real event. (Cw suicide, abuse)

I would be surprised if prices went down significantly, seems like the oil corps operate as an unofficial cartel. There’s not much compelling them to cut prices unless there’s a huge drop in demand like a second pandemic, or some kind of government intervention (lol). There’s still much oil storage capacity left in Alberta.

At what level of Rule of Law™ (sponsored by Checks and Balances®) does the defendant get to sentence the judge/jury?

It would be more like fleeing to pei not Newfoundland/Labrador

how can you be fairly compensated if you don’t control the surplus value you have created?

also yeah it does sound like slavery, Marx wrote a lot about this thing called wage-slavery.

the (unfinished) cartoon in question

Yeah a lot of it is informed with his past neuroticism over his health and fear of death (justified in the end). I don’t quite get his afterlife beliefs, but I do like his characterisation of economic modes as essentially ways to manage who must feel pain in class societies.

Would you say Xi is the leader of the faction within the party most willing to reverse these conditions? And are there other movements in the country with this aim? I’m just curious if there’s an explicit timeline to transition away from the need for these kinds of special economic zones and the practices that come with them.

I think this is one of the fairer takes. I think what’s obvious is that since Deng the Chinese model is unquestionably the most effective growth model as far as global capitalism is concerned. They can beat anyone on those terms. But those terms have fundamental social and ecological limits and so we cannot afford to play by them any longer.

“this… is … heckin amazeballs!”

In the final analysis, chud is a flavour of liberal
