The discordian operation is in full swing. Those who correctly understand motions of the Gates Foundation et al are being lumped in with discordian fascist propagandists. The COVID response is a coordinated pre-planned move by the imperialists, not a series of accidental failures At its root the discordian operation is simple (and an old tactic). Make up various conspiracies that are obviously fake, mix them with a bit of truth, and use it to smear those who correctly unravel the machinations of the capitalist class (aka 'conspiracy theorists')

Read @elleprovocateur's invaluable work. Act I: "This is the art of social engineering. Conformity and emotive content as tools of manipulation has been and always will be the most powerful weapons in the Mad Men’s toolbox." wrongkindofgreen.org/2019/01/17/the… Act II: "The 'clean energy revolution' doesn’t threaten big oil – it secures it. It doesn’t weaken capitalism. It strengthens it. It doesn’t inspire resistance – it quells it – into oblivion." wrongkindofgreen.org/2019/01/21/the…

Protests, strikes, boycotts. These are tactics. Tactics do not belong to one side in a conflict. There's a really common tendency now to fetishize tactics and aesthetics over material analysis, which is what led to 'socialists' supporting Solidarność for instance The CIA is very aware of this and promotes it heavily. Don't fall for this. Some of these 'socialists' would have been supporting the '73 Chilean truckers' strike, a tool used by the CIA to further squeeze Chile's economy under Allende. Image

Turns out the Congress for Cultural Freedom, used to push anti-communism in leftist circles and in culture/art, has interesting roots. Michael Josselson, the consistent leader of the operation, got his start in post-war Germany helping Nazis avoid justice He worked with Nabokov, a White Russian émigré composer, ostensibly on denazification. However, the program appears primarily aimed at promoting anti-communist culture, in the same line as his later project

CANVAS is a tool of US imperialism that we should be studying. It's an 'activist' training organization which grew out of OTPOR, the organization which led the overthrow of the government of Milošević. Currently they're closely involved in Venezuela and elsewhere (thread). Much of the information in this thread comes from the leaked Stratfor emails. Stratfor is a private intelligence firm which developed a close relationship with CANVAS. They admit that CANVAS is an 'export-a-revolution' group funded by various US imperialist slush funds.

Interviewer: "Can you be a democratic socialist and a capitalist?"
AOC: "Well, I think it depends on your interpretation. There are some democratic socialists that would say absolutely not, there are others... that would say 'I think it's possible'... I think it's possible." She goes on to say that private business is better for "a lot of things... a lot of consumer goods... You can be in the private sector and be a democratically socialist business" holy shit lmao

The meaning of words often evolves and changes over time, which poses an issue for us. Those who have the most control over language and other elements of culture in a capitalist society are, of course, the capitalists, and they know how to weaponize it There's a number of ways that language is weaponized, but a common one is rendering revolutionary language devoid of meaning by using it in unrevolutionary and even counterrevolutionary ways

Revisionism is not 'anything I disagree with' or even 'anything that disagrees with something Marx said'. Revisionism is using and mangling Marxism to hide political goals. Revising theory due to new evidence is the very essence of Marxism-Leninism. If you think that everything that Marx, Lenin, Stalin, or Mao said should be taken as holy writ, then you are the one mangling Marxism. We are scientific socialists, so we should be dealing in evidence, not deifying theorists.

The CIA doesn't need to do much to convince the right to hate China, to hate USSR, to hate communism, to hate anti-imperialism. But as the CIA realized almost from the outset, if they could convince the American left to hate those groups, well that's real control. They've been very successful. The anti-communist culture is so strong, some news probably match the CIA line perfectly w/o needing a single CIA asset in their midst. A thread on the Congress of Cultural Freedom, the first major CIA project in this area:

"Progressive" news sources that follow the state department line on certain issues such as Syria and China are incredibly useful to the bourgeoisie/government. They act to corral people who are starting to move towards socialism/anti-imperialism. By affirming some things these potential socialists already knew, they establish reliability. They can then draw a line in their coverage, portraying those who disagree to be dreaded "conspiracy theorists", "russian stooges", or "propagandists"

Seeing claims of Vietnamese imperialism in Kampuchea is honestly very sickening. It's quite similar to slander against the USSR as a tool to minimize the horror of the Nazis, but instead it's a tool to minimize the horror of the Khmer Rouge. The most oft-cited anti-communist mythology is the Black Book. Coincidentally the origin of much of the claims against Vietnam is the Black Paper, written by the Khmer Rouge. Much of the Black Book is from Nazi sources.

The FBI running a psyop to get the Sicilian mob to attack CPUSA might sound far-fetched. Meet HOODWINK, a COINTELPRO operation to do just that (thread) It all started in 1966, when the NY FBI office came up with the idea. Bureau leaders loved the idea and gave the green light to begin pitting the two groups against each other

I've had the misfortune of seeing white vegan bullshit on my timeline for some reason, and haven't seen a thread on it in a while, so here we go. First before the white vegans arrive, I am vegan so stop before you embarrass yourselves. First off, if you're anti-cruelty and aren't anti-capitalist, you're a fucking joke. You're not going to end the cruel practices of the meat industry without ending capitalism.

Today, September 11, is the date of one of the most horrific terrorist attacks in the history of the Americas. 45 years ago the US empire used proxy forces to execute a coup in Chile against the democratically elected gov of Marxist Salvador Guillermo Allende Gossens (thread) At some point I’ll write on Allende’s life, but today I want to discuss briefly the events leading up to the coup, and the brutal events of September 11, 1973 and the following months. It all began on September 4, 1970. Allende won a plurality of the presidential vote with 36.2%
