I think we can all agree the spirit of the Empire has changed or shared hands many times throughout history. We can all agree a fundamental root of Western imperialism is the Roman Empire. We can also point to the United States as the clear holder of the title today, and more recently to the British, French, Spanish, and the like. The Nazi Empire was Germany's attempt to seize the reins.

However, it is hard for me to pinpoint the missing link between the Romans and the developed Christendom/ renaissance/ colonial/ industrial Western powers. Could one be the Vikings?

I am not an expert on the Vikings, but at a glance, it seems to check out. They are romanticized by white culture despite being a violent society--I understand they also foraged and farmed and made art, but they were famous for raiding, raping, murdering, pillaging, burning, and enslaving. There is reasons the Nazis popularized and the middle class whites of today maintain the idea that blonde-haired blue-eyed pale people are the ultimate human form, and the Nordic countries are seen as paradise, the ideal all leftwing imperialist liberals aspire to, despite to this day being functionally aspiring ethnostates. Vikings are not only celebrated in mainstream media, but all the white supremacist fascists love adorning themselves and their imagery with Viking aesthetics. Many Neo Nazi narrators invoke the Vikings as inspiration to the spirit of the legendary White Man™️ they must uphold. It seems their pagan religion was subsumed into the imperial Christian Church, but how did imperial Christianity subsume its neighbors? By integration, perhaps in this case, by taking warlike aesthetics from paganism and cutting off the harmony with nature.

My history knowledge here is a little vague, but didn't they essentially invade and take over England? So, would that not make the British--the closest to a post-Roman pre-USian singular pilot of Western hegemony--spiritually a lovechild of the Romans and the Vikings who both colonized them? In this way, Britian was much like the United States; original inhabitants slaughtered or subjugated, with a myriad of wicked societies forming a ghoulish beast together, no?

I am definitely no expert on the various histories at play here, so I wanted to see what comrades here think about this narrative.

We saw about this time a year or two ago, that the USA was manufacturing a lot of propaganda to manufacture consent for war in Haiti.

Like all good Machiavellian strategists, they have let the first wave of propaganda sit and ferment, allowing some people, some mass conscious pioneers that act as emissaries to the public with the will of the Empire, to familiarize themselves with Haiti's existence.

Now, a second wave has begun, and with greater reach and intensity. I think we can expect more tangible actions intended than a smattering of Kenyan militia being sent to Haiti--after it is established that the American public and its bleeding heart liberals have expressed approval of a "humanitarian mission."

Now is the time to educate ourselves, our comrades, and those within our sphere of influence as individuals and as a group about Haiti, its long past of brutal invasion consisting of mass murder, rape, and looting by the USA, the UN, and European powers, the actual situation of the "gang problems" cited by the USA as justification for military action, and the Haitian leadership.

The white supremacist empire has never forgiven Haiti for freeing itself by the blood of slave masters, and they have spent a century punishing them for their bravery, audacity, and dignity.

This is the exact blueprint for "cartel violence" the the USA is creating and then citing to build casus belli against Mexico.

If we can get ahead of the wave, it will save us a lot of headache in fighting the psychological war for American hearts and minds, not just for Haiti, but for Mexico, and all the other last-ditch-effort blundering invasions the dying empire will lash out with in the final act of its existence.

I have no idea why I've never shared these! I attended a meeting last year, all the speakers were charismatic and knowledgeable and the Black-led ML group is targetted by the FBI (a sign of their effectiveness, to me).

What do ya'all think?

Here's the latest I got:

Uhuru!

Will you join us tomorrow?

Got an ask on my Tumblr:

And honestly, I have not a clue. Does anybody know how to answer this?

I will be giving anonymous credit to anyone helping me with this, unless you'd like explicit credit, but I know most everyone here values their anonymity.

Obviously, there is nothing to celebrate about a far-right leader vowing to make the lives of everyday Germans worse, and to treat Arab refugees like Undesirables. But Germany being such a core component of the EU, them leaving would be a blow to US consolidation and use of them and the greater EU as vassals, no?

I don't know if ya'all have heard much of or used Tumblr, but a user on there called Worker Solidarity posts high effort nitty gritty Ukraine war updates like this one which have been really interesting and informative to me. Thought it was time I shared!! Check out their blog for more!!

A good collection of some general tips, despite the speaker not being our friend.

Going off the "prepping" topic a week or so ago, I think we in the West should try to learn and train these sort of skills, even lightly, now, while collapse/revolution is still likely some ways off.

I will admit I learn piece by piece through being in ML spaces. So, I know a basic amount about Lebanon and Syria and their situation with Palestine/Israel/etc. But, I know nothing about Egypt or Jordan.

I've heard people here say that Egypt is some form of a puppet, and I've heard people elsewhere (that I don't trust to have the whole picture nor tell the truth if they did) saying that Egypt and Jordan are rejecting Palestinian refugees because everybody has been alienated from the PLO/Hamas.

Anybody that can shed some light on this?

I understand that even countries that like Palestine refrain from being too aggressive towards Israel ever because Israel is a psychotic dog with rabies that will nuke the entire Middle East if it feels the consequences of its evil action coming home to roost. But I always enjoy having a better understanding of countries, especially ones we're barely exposed to here in the West.

🌩🌩BRAINSTORM SESSION!🌩🌩

There was a recent post reminding us to organize IRL. While that is essential, most of us spend time online and off Lemmygrad. And there is ALWAYS small opportunities for radicalization.

Social media is terrible and often a terrible waste of time and energy. However, for those of us on it, it is undeniably, in this age, a major way that people form opinions on political matters.

We in the Western Left have a lot of work we need to do. It can seem overwhelming at times because we don'tknow where to start. The populace is intuitively sympathetic to our analysis and even our proposed solutions, but they are completely innoculated against it, which makes it very difficult to recruit for IRL organizations, to agitate, to even have simple conversations with people. Even those who might be receptive are simply living in a reality that is completely different from ours, because they have never even been exposed to our narrative at all! Small bits of exposure is what will be the groundwork towards radicalizing many people.

Whether we like it or not, we are essentially Nazis in terms of censorship...no, worse, actually! I see people talk about Jews or Blacks etc. pretty regularly with little consequence, but it's gotten to the point where anytime I try and say "America" I get censored.

So, it got me thinking, and I used some emojis instead.

Suddenly, I could talk about the evils of 🦅🇺🇲🪖🕵‍♂️🐷🇪🇺🤵💰🇺🇦 all sorts of things, and my comments, posts, etc. were censored less (keyword less). It certainly worked better than when I said things like N@tzees, n4yto, or similarly self-censored words that probably get flagged as spam (?).

It sucks that we have to stoop to the actions of Nazis, such as dogwhistling. This truth should be sung from rooftops. But we must accept the reality that we are a targeted demographic in every sense and that we could learn from the social engineering successes of the goblinoids on 4chan that played a small part in popularizing Trump, "race realism," Jewish Cabal conspiracy, and many other psychosocial parasites that have persisted to this day.

What do you think? What are other good dogwhistles? Have you noticed any particular things that get you censored or any tricks to bypass it?
