My latest @NatCounterPunch assessing the opportunities and challenges of organizing a left politics among Asian Americans. This topic, I feel, still isn’t as explored as it should be. I include insights from left organizers that I think are amazing.

"Carpet bomb them all".
Speaking to The Guardian at an event ahead of Israel’s elections, a young Israeli woman called for Palestinians to be forcibly displaced from the Gaza Strip, saying they should be killed if they cannot be removed.

I’m a Jew. This isn’t antisemitic. But it is hilarious.
I’m sick to my stomach. I honestly never thought that I would witness such an antisemitic piece of American political propaganda in my lifetime. This is Nazi-Islamic antisemitism delivered against the Jewish collective in 2026 in the United States. By endorsing Abdel El-Sayed, the Democratic Party has crossed a threshold that signals a sickening decay of dangerous proportions to the American Jewish community. If this ad isn’t pulled with an explicit apology to the Jewish community, I will say Kaddish over my country of birth. I’m disgusted by what was once a great country. Voting Democratic is now like voting for the Nazi party. Anyone who rationalizes this ad as anything other than an Islamic-Nazi propaganda piece that scapegoats the collective Jew for cheap political currency has succumbed to antizionist brainwashing.
Man eff you Zohran
⚡️ Mayor Zohran Mamdani's NYPD is poised to sign a three-year, $750,500 no-bid contract with Israeli surveillance firm Cognyte for FalcoNet, an AI-driven device that mimics a cell tower to track phones and can be mounted on police cars and drones or hidden in a backpack, the New York Daily News reported.
Cognyte won a tender to sell intercept spyware to Myanmar's state telecom weeks before the 2021 military coup, Reuters previously reported. Meta banned the firm the same year, saying its customers used fake accounts to target journalists and politicians in Kenya, Mexico and Indonesia.
The firm is part of an Israeli surveillance industry that grew big as a result of the military's monitoring of Palestinians, whose phone calls Israel's Unit 8200 has intercepted and stored by the millions, including to carry out genocide in Gaza and enforce a brutal illegal occupation in Jerusalem and the West Bank.
I did !

"[This book] stands out in historically situating the most fertile period of Marxist dependency theory in the rise of Allende’s government in Chile... A perspective that is indispensable for organized resistance struggles in the 21st century."

If you must watch TV series, get off anything produced by Hollywood to smuggle Genocidal Yt Empire propaganda into the very structure of your thinking (yes, Andor too!) and start with this inspiring series that @OzmuC has most ably subtitled in English.

This is one of the most disgusting scenes I have seen in a while.
A humble Muslim delivery man shows up to do work at this Hindu woman's house in India. His azan app goes off at the prayer time. She proceeds to deliver him a humiliating lecture ON VIDEO and posts it to the whole world.
She yells at him that it's her Hindu festival today and that his azan went off, as if he did it on purpose. The service sector man hangs his head, apologizes repeatedly, and she harangues him ON VIDEO like a vile breed of creature unknown to humanity - then she yells at him "Stop this dominance!"
She yells at him for having consumed tobacco before arrival (what, now you're going to discipline every delivery guy for his personal habits??) She claims that the azan is all about dominance: when he starts to protest, she says "I'm a Kashmiri Pandit, I know Urdu, I know all about this."
This kind of genocidally hateful person apparently now constitutes a majority of India and if I were to say what should happen to her, I would be banned. This video is harassment and bullying and should be taken down. May God comfort your heart, Khalid, we stand with you. This is absolutely wrong and you do not deserve any of this garbage.
Flipkart delivery boy Khalid started doing azaan at a woman's home

URGENT🚨: We’re witnessing unprecedented voter suppression here in Brazil. Far-right governors are targeting the poor & the marginalized – & shutting down their access to polling stations. We must wake up! Whether it’s Trump or Bolsonaro, authoritarians fear the people’s voice!

Zizek's 'moderately conservative communism' is also somehow a communism that praises Biden and insists that American socialists remain steadfast reformers of the Democratic Party.
Fake "Marxist" celebrity Slavoj Zizek opposes the protests in France because they're violent, but he praises the violent US-backed, fascist-led 2014 Ukraine coup and violent protests in Iran.
He also openly supports NATO and the proxy war in Ukraine, after he backed NATO's wars on Syria and Libya.
Zizek is just another pro-imperialist socdem who uses "radical" rhetoric to cover up the fact that he is usually on the same side as US capital (going back to when he started his career as an anti-communist "dissident" in Yugoslavia, running for office with a right-wing neoliberal party).

I’m pretty happy USSR brought my grandmother down from the inhospitable Caucasian mountains and settled her in the plains and then gave her an education, a job, even a hobby (she made her own skin care line) and an amazing apartment in the city of Tbilisi.
(Her personality was still a bit harsh like the mountain environment though 😃)

Journalist surprised to find that some journalists actually do journalism
Did @DropSiteNews knowingly publish illegally obtained classified CIA intelligence?
On October 5, the outlet co-published Aída Chávez’s story claiming a secret CIA assessment warned Israel could descend into civil war.
That date is now in an FBI leak affidavit🧵
