some perspective from @vijayprashad.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMuW...

peoplesdispatch.org/2026/01/03/t... “Trump will get his standing ovation at the US Congress, but the price for that has already been paid by hundreds of dead civilians in Venezuela and millions more who are struggling to survive…” - Taroa Zúñiga Silva and @vijayprashad.bsky.social

así como para establecer su dominio de todo el hemisferio americano mediante la Doctrina Monroe de 1823.» Noam Chomsky y @vijayprashad.bsky.social en 'La retirada. Irak, Libia, Afganistán y la fragilidad del poder en Estados Unidos'. capitanswing.com/libros/la-re...

Tiempos de reconfiguración geopolítica trumpista son tiempos de leer a dos de los mejores analistas de la política internacional estadounidense del mundo; Chomsky y @vijayprashad.bsky.social. Sobre Cuba y sobre las injerencias armadas de EEUU en las últimas décadas y sus resultados y consecuencias.

The Chavistas are on the streets in Venezuela. The US can blow up cities, but it cannot build a popular project.

No to War. Yes to Peace. No Cold War condemns US Attack on Venezuela (nocoldwar.org/news/no-cold...) (x.com/NoColdWar/st...) No a la Guerra Fría condena el ataque de EE. UU. contra Venezuela (nocoldwar.org/news/no-a-la...) (x.com/NoColdWar/st...)

The rules-based international order? No, no. It is really the US commands-based international order. That's my three minute idea, www.youtube.com/watch?v=BY6s...

Memories of the First Intifada, which began today in 1987, thirty-eight years ago. Onward the fight for Palestinian liberation.

"In China you have capitalists, but you don't have a capitalist class. They are not allowed to create their media, they are not allowed to control political parties" Great answer to a question I'm asked a lot when I try to explain the difference between markets and capitalism.

Neuri Rossetto, one of the leaders of the Landless Workers Movement (MST) of Brazil, and I with the passion fruit - 百香果 (fruit of a hundred fragrances) - of Rongjiang. Learning about cooperative production, a part of China’s socialist process.

<Chinese countryside> after a long day documenting rural revitalization experiments in Yuezhai, Toutang, and other villages in Rongjiang, I was plied with drink at a long table banquet with the entire village of Toutang that included singing and dancing (even Bhangra!).

Is China still a socialist country? Is China interested in taking over the world? These are the questions the journalist Li Jingjing asked me to clarify. And so I did (over our 30 minute conversation): www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnoe...

The United States is a paper tiger. It does not dare to invade Venezuela or Colombia.

Long road from Santiago to Seoul to speak alongside the APEC summit.

Ceasefire? Israel has already annexed more than half of the territory of Gaza. This is a war crime based on the UN Security Council Resolution 242 (S/RES/242) of November 1967.

Working on three essays: 1. Gramsci as a Communist intellectual and not as a cultural studies icon. 2. On Gramsci's grave. 3. On the Marxism of Defeat. Trying to excavate the Marxism of class struggle & not of desolation. These are preparing me to write a book on the Marxism of National Liberation.

I really hope that the Irish people elect Catherine Connolly @catherinegalway.bsky.social as president. She has shown her commitment to human dignity by not flinching on the imminent question of Palestinian life. Viva.

European elite are truly the vassals of US elite. That they'd go along with the New Cold War is remarkable. Latest example: BMW struggling to get cars off the line due to the @nexperia.bsky.social problems over rare earth minerals & chips. Good luck Europe. finance.yahoo.com/news/bmw-say...

The Communist Party of India was founded on 17 October 1920. Today is a day of celebration & reflection. How far have we come? What must we do to go beyond the present? To that end, please re-read the Tricontinental dossier (thetricontinental.org/dossier-32-c...)

With Jyotisman on the popular channel India and Global Left, we spoke about Gaza, Ukraine, Venezuela, the US military project, and the unused potential of the BRICS. What a ride, as usual. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlnC...

Trump has no right to have a 'Gaza plan' and sending tomahawk missiles to Ukraine is madness. Once more, a very nice conversation with my friend Zain Raza on AcTVism Munich - www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_a0...

The genocide will not end until the Palestinian political leaders are free. My Globetrotter column on the political situation imposed by Israeli apartheid and occupation on the Palestinians. Read it here: peoplesdispatch.org/2025/10/16/t...

The @nobelprize.bsky.social is a vassal of the US elite, just like the NATO leadership. www.presstv.ir/Detail/2025/...

The United States is flying B-2 bombers next to the boundary of Venezuelan air space. This is a very serious provocation and contrary to international law. And the @nobelprize.bsky.social committee is responsible. If there is war, there is blood on the hands of the people in Oslo.

للحرية الحمراء بابٌ بكلّ يدٍ مضرّجةٍ يُدَقُّ And for the red freedom there is a door, that is knocked upon by every blood-stained hand. [Ahmad Shawqi, 1868-1932] The Palestinian prisoners walk out of their cells and into the struggle's other battlefield....

Nora Haddada at the Frankfurt Book Fair spoke of a 'discourse psychosis' in Germany that prevented an open condemnation of the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza. 'The shit is really going down', she said. 'Silence is just one step down from cowardice'.

There is no revelation here but only a confirmation. The Republican Youth are basically like the Hitler-Jugend. Read this for illumination: www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Before apartheid Israel released the Palestinian political prisoners in the prisoner exchange, why did Israeli occupation forces raid and ransack the homes of these prisoners in Nablus (in the Balata & Askar al-Jadid refugee camps), in Salem, in Aqraba, in Zeita Jamma'in, in Hebron, & in Deir Samet?

(FACTS) Israel's genocide over the Palestinians in Gaza destroyed: a. 190,115 buildings (330,500 houses are badly damaged). b. More than 85% of water and sanitation facilities. Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, 6 October 2025, www.pcbs.gov.ps/post.aspx?la...).

On the road to socialism….

Trump didn’t make the ceasefire. Resistance of the Palestinians ensured Israel couldn’t ethnically cleanse Gaza. Salute to the Palestinian people. Continue the struggle to end the genocide, the occupation, and the apartheid state. Let the Palestinian children thrive! Viva to Palestine viva.
