The Communist Party of India (Marxist) just ended extreme poverty in Kerala. Meanwhile, in the US — the richest country in human history — 40% of people are poor or low income.

🚩 The Workers’ Party of Belgium (PTB) By re-inventing itself as a “party where ordinary people feel at home,” the PTB has become one of the most successful socialist organisations in all of Europe 🧵

The Global North is responsible for 86% of emissions in excess of the 'safe' planetary boundary. Hurricane Melissa is the outcome of atmospheric colonisation, a form of imperialist appropriation that imposes permanent de-development on the South.

☄️ We’re excited to share that we will be running Comet again next year. Comet is a 4.5-month training programme for youth organisers in Britain who are seeking to understand the world and how to change it. Applications open on December 1st. More info: drive.google.com/file/d/1p8P9...

📃 NEW: Debt, a tight job market, poor wages, and left-leaning politics. In our latest brief, we analyse the extent to which downwardly mobile graduates in Britain can be cohered into a bloc for eco-socialism. Read here: www.climatevanguard.org/publications...

"We are anti-imperialists because we are Marxists, because we are revolutionaries, because we oppose capitalism with socialism" - José Carlos Mariátegui

Not good. Carbon sinks appear to be failing, driving a record CO2 emissions increase in 2024. Capital continues to apply unbearable pressure on our planetary life support systems. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Real efforts to transform Your Party into a democratic instrument for anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, eco-socialist struggle - a very promising sign from the grassroots Left. prometheusjournal.org/2025/10/13/f...

Mamdani’s liberal capitulation is a clear lesson of what happens when left organisations do not maintain power over their elected members. Without mechanisms of accountability, they will inevitably cave to the pressures of the status quo.

Breaking: Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Maria Machado, a US-Israeli asset calling for the overthrow of her own government. This is the imperialist definition of “peace.”

Bourgeois politics is just a bunch of right-wing parties calling each other socialist or communist.

Imperialism is the root cause of so-called “illegal” immigration. Let’s look at some case studies 🧵

We produce enough food to meet the needs of 11 billion people. But each year, 733 million people go hungry. Capitalism creates artificial scarcity.

The far right is obsessed with so-called “illegal” immigration. But at the same time, it remains deeply committed to the system driving it: imperialism. 🧵

Shipping companies continue to fuel Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people. Here's a closer look at the most complicit firms 🧵

Since 1990, the British public has paid almost £200 billion to the shareholders who own privatised industries. Common Wealth exposes the utter insanity of this ruling class theft.

🌏 War destroys communities and the planet. We need a new system that centres social needs and ecological health. 🧵

✊ Last weekend, at the People's Conference for Palestine, we joined hundreds of other organisations, like the Palestinian Youth Movement, YCFA, and @codepink.bsky.social to discuss how Gaza is the compass of our movement for collective liberation.

Fueled by the hyper-imperialist strategies of the US, the risk of nuclear war is increasing. In the 2nd part of this 2-part series, we investigate the catastrophic impacts of a thermonuclear exchange. 🧵

“China has not fired a single bullet in international warfare in over 40 years, while during this time the US has invaded, bombed or carried out regime-change operations in over a dozen Global South countries.” open.substack.com/pub/jasonhic...

From 1971 to 2021, unilateral sanctions killed 564,000 people per year. This is 5x greater than the number of battle-related casualties in the same period. 🧵

Colombia has severed diplomatic relations with Israel. It has also begun a phase out of fossil fuel production. This is, as President Petro calls it, a "politics of life." jacobin.com/2025/08/colo...

☢️ In part 1 of our 2-part series on nuclear war, we explore how the US plans to use nuclear weapons as part of its quest for eternal unipolarity. 🧵

Young people are getting crushed by late-stage capitalism. In the UK, people under 30 spend more than 30% of their income on rent. The share of young people living with their parents has increased by a third over the last 20 years 👇

On this day in 1953, the CIA and MI6 staged a coup against Mohammad Mosaddegh, the democratically-elected leader of Iran. 🧵

A whole generation has become anti-Zionist.

The reason the US supports Israel is *not* because of the Zionist lobby. The US supports Israel because it is an outpost of Western imperialism.

Summer is a time for political education. Here are some of our book recommendations 🧵

❓ You’ve likely heard the terms “US hegemony,” “unipolarity,” and “global superpower” — but what do they actually mean? ☠️ How did the US gain its position as the most powerful country in the world, and how does it maintains its dominance? 🧵

An effective left party must (1) unite a people's bloc (2) provide strategic direction (3) endure in a protracted struggle for state and popular power. More in our brief: www.climatevanguard.org/publications...

🇨🇳 Let's take a look at China’s poverty alleviation efforts, which have been characterised by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres as “the greatest anti-poverty achievement in history.” 🧵

🇵🇸🔗 The US state is abducting and deporting students for resisting genocide. As contradictions sharpen, the ruling class exposes their morally bankrupt self-interest to preserve the status quo at all costs.

✊ In our contribution to the ongoing series 'What Is The Party?' by @prometheusjournal.bsky.social, we propose key functions and activities of a revolutionary party that are necessary to advance our collective struggle for eco-socialism today. prometheusjournal.org/2025/04/09/t...

Climate Vanguard @climatevanguard.bsky.social present their perspective on the mass left party and its functions and how it can intervene and agitate for eco-socialism. prometheusjournal.org/2025/04/09/t...

Since the Paris Agreement, Morgan Stanley has invested $183.5 billion into fossil fuels. Now, the bank “expects a 3C world” and projects profit opportunities in air conditioning. This is disaster capitalism.

🔥 Last night, Max Ajl joined us for the second training of Comet on imperialism. 🌍 We discussed ecologically unequal exchange, dedevelopment, delinking, anti-imperialist organising within the imperial core, and much more!

🛢️🔥 Has anyone else noticed that the climate criminals have gone full villain mode recently?!?

☄️ Last night, we had the first training of Comet on revolutionary philosophy! ✊ Alyson Escalante joined us to speak about dialectical and historical materialism and their relevance to our movements, drawing on her experiences in tenants, workplace, and antifascist organising.

☠️ Maersk is more than just a merchant of genocidal war. It is also wrecking the planet and exploiting its workers. ⚠️ From pumping the atmosphere full of toxic pollution to “reprehensible” violations of worker safety, Maersk’s socio-ecological destruction is the source of its mega profits. 🧵

"Microplastic pollution could increase the number at risk of starvation by another 400 million in the next two decades" Capital is thrashing the web of life. We must restore conscious control over the productive forces to secure a dignified future for all.

Europe’s rearmament is a desperate attempt at relevance in a multipolar world. It’s as delusional as it is dangerous. If its political class had a spine, it would punish the US by reorienting itself to the emerging pole of the world system: the East and South.

☄️ We gathered in Bristol this weekend for the Kick-Off Gathering of Comet, our new cadre development programme! 🔥 We are thrilled to spend the next four months of collective learning with these incredible youth organisers!

❗️The mask is off: Maersk is complicit in genocide and settler colonialism. 🔎 Here we explore critical new research by the Palestinian Youth Movement about the role of the shipping and logistics giant in facilitating mass death and land theft. 🧵

Check out this incredible political education programme by the @progintl.bsky.social, commencing soon! act.progressive.international/academy/?lin...

✊ We endorse Mask off Maersk, an incredible campaign by the Palestinian Youth Movement. 🇵🇸 Maersk's position as a critical node in a global industry of death makes it a strategic target in our struggle for a free Palestine and collective liberation. 🧵

❓ What does the rise of the far right have to do with preserving capitalism? 👉 Everything. (1/3)

Coming off the hottest January on record, Equinor announces that it will halve its renewable investments in favour of a 10% increase in oil production (2.2 mn barrels/day by 2030), a move CEO Anders Opedal says will "create shareholder value for decades to come." 1/2

❓ What does “Make America Great Again” really mean? 🇺🇸 In this second post on the North Atlantic far right, we analyse the real essence of Donald Trump’s MAGA movement. ✊ If we are to erode the power of the far right, then we must understand it. 🧵

The contradictions of monopoly capitalism are rapidly deepening. In 2024, billionaire wealth surged by $2 trillion, with 204 new billionaires - almost 4 a week. On average, each billionaire saw their fortune grow by $2 million daily, with the top 10 gaining $100 million/day.

🏆 In his inauguration speech, Trump proclaimed, “The golden age of America starts now.” This promise of national renewal by breaking from the old is emblematic of the far right's politics in the North Atlantic. But is the far right really a populist force challenging the neoliberal consensus? 🧵
