  • Internal Dissent, High-Profile Resignations, and Donor Anxiety Have Shaken the Heritage Foundation

    Internal Dissent, High-Profile Resignations, and Donor Anxiety Have Shaken the Heritage Foundation

    Resignations, Rebellion, and a Right-Wing Rift: Heritage Implodes Over Carlson–Fuentes Affair Folks—let me have your attention for a moment. Because I’ve been hearing some rumbling, some grumbling, a downright thundering from deep inside one of Washington’s most conservative policy halls. Yes sir, trouble. Trouble with a capital T, and that rhymes with C, that stands […]

  • The Proof is in the Pudding: A Few Comments on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics

    Anyone interested in socialism in the twenty-first century must take into account what is happening in China seriously. It’s future economic supremacy will either shape global capitalism, which socialists worldwide will have to respond to or the future of socialism will be determined by China’s planned transformation toward a socialist economy          […]

  • Defend Popular Will, Struggle for People(s)-Centered Human Rights!

    This past Human Rights Day illuminated what Gaza has relegated to the dustbin of history: the oxymoron of “Western values and human rights.” Western civilization stands as a living negation of human rights, a truth illustrated by the ongoing atrocities in Palestine and the brutal legacies of Western intervention in Haiti, Congo, and Sudan. The […]

  • Where is it Leading?

    Note: This article was being completed just before the attack on a Jewish holiday celebration at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. A previous article ─ The Radical Left Meets the Extreme Right: Allied against Jewish support for Israel ─ remained unfinished. The connection between hostility to apartheid Israel and the strengthening of the extreme right, […]

  • The Russian Wolf Speaks: Alexander Dugin and the Fourth Political Theory

    The Russian Wolf Speaks: Alexander Dugin and the Fourth Political Theory

    Rise of the populist right In two previous articles I pointed out that the 18th century political spectrum makes no sense in the world today and it hasn’t made sense for at least the past 10 years. Today the leading forces against global monopoly and finance capital in the West are coming from the right […]

  • BRICS Will Fail to Deliver Anti-imperialism

    BRICS Will Fail to Deliver Anti-imperialism

    Multipolarity — the idea that there are more than one decisive economic actors in the global economy — is an important fact. More than anything else, the rise of the People’s Republic of China demonstrates that fact. The size and rate of growth, along with the expansive Belt and Road Initiative, establishes that the PRC […]

  • The Great Revolutionary Divide

    The Great Revolutionary Divide

    Europe, mid-1800s: Two men stood at the center of a storm that would shape socialism’s future. Karl Marx, a German-born philosopher, believed in seizing the state (central government) and wielding its machinery to crush the ruling class. To him, power was a tool, not a curse. Mikhail Bakunin, a Russian anarchist strategist, saw it differently. […]

  • The Highest Form of Democracy: The Grassroots Campaign of Yves Engler

    The Highest Form of Democracy: The Grassroots Campaign of Yves Engler

    The farce of Western regard for democracy has been revealed in several countries. Well known are the machinations of the Democratic National Commission to prevent the social democrat Bernie Sanders from becoming the leader of the so-called Democratic Party in the US. In the UK, there was the coalition of Labour Party insiders with Israeli […]

  • Nayib Bukele and the Working-Class Struggle in El Salvador

    Nayib Bukele and the Working-Class Struggle in El Salvador

    This article analyzes the emergence of Nayib Bukele as a political figure in El Salvador from a Marxist materialist perspective. Bukele’s ascent is the result of both the failure of capitalist neoliberalist policies and the lack of a working-class struggle instrument. The author concludes that the only alternative lies in constructing a democratic political movement […]

  • Major Collision or Fender Bender? Is MAGA Splitting over Israel, Anti-Semitism, and Neo-Nazis?

    Major Collision or Fender Bender? Is MAGA Splitting over Israel, Anti-Semitism, and Neo-Nazis?

    Will Tucker Carlson’s interview with far-right activist, Nick Fuentes, tear MAGA apart? Did Tucker Carlson’s softball interview with white supremacist Nick Fuentes ignite a full-blown MAGA civil war? Is the latest dust-up — over Israel and anti-Semitism — between powerful and popular conservative voices, another family feud or a marker of End Times MAGAism? Is […]
