tankies are campists

and the russian journalist mentioned wrote about it himself: www.sport-express.ru/olympics/win...

Big shocker that the brownshirt militia created by the Russian puppet is made up of Russia supporters.

"Russian journalist walked through the stadium and the mixed zone wearing an Ovechkin mask. He asked the Canadian players about Russians and their (non)participation in the Olympics. We heard Russian even after the Slovak matches; they asked Slafkovský about Ružička, and someone" -

Today will be CZ's first men's ice hockey match and it always reminds me of how Czech (or rather Czechoslovak) hockey history is full of pain at the hands of USSR/RU imperialism - from Russians learning hockey from forced Czechoslovak instruction to sending a championship team to uranium mines

I wanted to start a podcast ages ago. But it takes a village (literally!) to make one. YurtJurt is a dream come true project that unites the coolest voices from Northern & Central Asia to speak up of our decolonial journey. Please share! We are hitting a milestone with this first season ❤️

You’re right, anti imperialism isn’t just “vibes.” So I’m sure you’ll understand that when faced with Russian imperial threat, those of us in Eastern Europe don’t have much of a choice. There’s plenty wrong with NATO but stop pretending the alternative for us is survivable, you ghoul.

I had the chance to watch the doc, "Mr. Nobody Against Putin" and I highly recommend. Particularly for people who refuse to believe the level of brainwashing and state militarization that goes on in Russian society and for Americans to see what's awaiting them www.youtube.com/watch?v=9150...

I see that Iranians are getting acquainted with the segment of the western left that believes that only massacres committed by US allies are bad. The way they're gaslighting victims while criticizing those who were doing the same elsewhere...Exactly the same as their right-winger counterparts.

the horrors persist but at least michael parenti died recently. imagine crying over a monster whose career was built on being a PR agent for Soviet ruling class and having an uncomfortable crush on Milosevic while denying Bosnian genocide

Defend Rojava

Rojava, the largest actually-democratic project in the world, has entered what might (or might not) be a last desperate stand.

Just because a lot of people are cruel, bigoted, and brainwashed doesn’t mean we have to find a “middle ground” with them or a “compromise” that satisfies some of their racist delusions. We just don’t.

Roger Waters tells Piers Morgan the Iranian police is defending shop keepers from violent thugs. A new set of people are finding out Waters is a vile idiot who always apologizes for non-Western dictatorships and deserves nothing but contempt. No one should be asking him about his political opinions.

The author copy of American Communist History has arrived, with a special issue on revisiting the free Angela Davis movement and its global impact - and in it, our paper with Selbi Durdiyeva On Collateral Damage, Selective Anti-imperialism and the Path to Liberation. It’s good to see this on paper…

1/ re: Current events The pattern isn’t new, but it’s getting more embarrassing. Every time a group of people decide to rise up against authoritarianism or suffer under invasion, a particular faction of the Western (mostly American) left rushes in to impose its suffocating binary worldview.

hi, again. it’s been awhile. substack is dead, working on a website instead so I can be free of algorithms. ✨

I read about those two families from Texas (incl down the road from where I grew up) who moved to Russia. I've been saying for years that Russia is Janus-like in its foreign PR. It acts like a land of white civilization for white Americans/Europeans and like a decolonization beacon for Africans.

and with that, i'll be taking a break from long form posts. i have plenty of drafts and ideas, but i am tired of trying to explain things to all the bad actors. the tankies, the faux moralist western academics, the nazis, the MAGA fanboys and fangirls, etc.

I wrote about how the western far right often tries to appropriate Ukraine for its own agenda. Featuring Charlie Kirk, sexpats, JP Lindsley, NAFO, and Visegrad 24: substack.com/@dumplingrad...

this whole thread but especially this

In the end, conversations about race, whiteness, and imperialism demand more than slogans or surface-level comparisons. Acknowledging conditional whiteness in Eastern Europe doesn’t negate Western racial hierarchies or the ongoing realities of anti-Blackness… open.substack.com/pub/dumpling...

Unfortunately once again we are ending up being excluded from Anarchist Bookfair event in Berlin. And again we find ourselves in need to address the issue that come from that exclusion. The full text of the statement is available at in english and russian abc-belarus.org/en/2...

I wrote about how the western left is delusional to believe there's really some great choice between NATO and Russkiy Mir for the CEE Region. And it's not a defense of NATO, either. dumplingradical.substack.com/p/the-wester...

why are weird racist europeans obsessed with the nyc mayoral race?

I wrote this with people like Zarah Sultana in mind. How can you ramble about Russian negotiations with working class rhetoric when the working class in Ukraine is being murdered systematically? dumplingradical.substack.com/p/no-war-but...

⚡️🔎 Visegrád24 built its fame on anti-Muslim rants, anti-migration posts, and disinformation waves. A new report unmasks the people, money & political forces behind this Central Europe-based—but globally connected—propaganda machine. @vsquare.bsky.social

Honestly the Russian government mustn’t believe its luck of how easy this has been.

i don't know why i try to fit my articles into bsky threads when i could just link them like a normal person 😅

1/ It's funny that what I wrote has been paraphrased or shared by people who in the past have accused me of "being russian" because i don't agree with excuses for the far right. anyway, i wrote about how "no war but class war" is basically the lazy leftist equivalent of thoughts and prayers -

I don't know why people keep saying that. It isn't true. Not even a bit. Dictators last as long as people with guns support their rule. That's it.

Just cracked myself up remembering the time the pro-slum side of this website argued that kitchens aren't a necessary component of housing because the Soviet stolovaya was invented

Anarchists from #Belarus and #Dresden organized an exhibition about the protests against the dictatorship in 2020. The exhibition tells the story of those who fought and are still fighting against Lukashenko's regime and Russian empire. #Anarchism

1/ a letter to the western left - I’d say we need to talk about your silence, but really, we need to talk about your noise. Specifically, all the noise you make about empire, liberation, and solidarity, while finding a thousand reasons to avert your gaze from Russian imperialism.

Czech politician Filip Turek—rumored candidate for Foreign Minister—once praised the near-fatal burning of a Romani toddler as a "mitigating circumstance" for neo-Nazi attackers. 📲 Read the full report via Romea.cz: 1url.cz/@turek-racism

1/ remember how i said things were bad but could be a lot worse since both SPD and Motoristé got lower numbers than expected in the elections? well, unfortunately it is getting worse. filip turek of Motoristé is who the new PM wants to appoint as the minister of foreign affairs.

Besides the unsurprising antisemitism, it’s further proof that Kirk was fine with changing positions based on who was funding him

Good to see in print this text that Maria Sonevytsky read at our RUTA conference in Ukraine this Summer, on the meaning of house keys for Crimean Tatars following 1940s Soviet deportations and genocide under Stalin, and the Palestinians since the Nakba www.londonukrainianreview.org/posts/everyd...
