Wikileaks dumped a bunch of emails from the DNC, showing the Bernie supporters were right all along, it was all rigged...

Wonder how it'll affect the convention!

Can't wait to see Philly's protests!

Just returned from an event in Southall London held by the CPGB-ML. Its their Anti-Imperialist, Internationalist BBQ they hold annually. They had speeches from the newly returned Ambassador for Laos (The embassy has just reopened, it was previously closed in the 1980s), a representative of the Venezuelan Ambassador, the Cuban Ambassador, and the DPRK Ambassador, as well as from various Party Members. Unfortunately I had to leave just before the end of the Venezuelan Ambassadors speech, and missed the Cuban, North Korean and Party members speeches, but I very much enjoyed what I did see. I'm not a member of the CPGB-ML, however I am fairly cool with their party, and they were very accepting of a CPB member such as myself. Would very much reccomend attending if you ever have the chance.

Also, I managed to go from where I live to London and back (Going on 4 hours there due to changes, closer to 3 back), using 6 different trains, and my train tickets weren't checked a single time, meaning I could have done the entire journey for free without buying them, which is annoying.

Shockingly high number of terrorist attacks in Bavaria as of late, anyone over there at current and able to give any insight as to the happenings? Enclave of soviet germany, you are in Bavaria are you not?

Yes, I came back just yesterday. Though I wouldn't call those incidents "terrorist attacks", since they weren't carried out by terrorists. Last time we had frequent terrorist attacks in Bavaria was when Gladio still existed and funded the Fascist Wehrsportgruppen.
So it all boils down to "there is a shockingly high number of people going crazy as of late", and that's more or less a global problem at the moment...

True, they are just the spontaneous lone wolf type things as opposed to something that's actually planned and funded by a group. Are the streets not crawling with police, or even soldiers? I'd expect them to be by this point honestly.

Armed police are usually always present at major train stations, but the last time things like the subway etc. were swarmed with police with machine pistols was after the New Year's Eve incident in Cologne, I think... and although the military has increased training programmes for inner-Germany urban insurgency battles, they have only been deployed for helping with floods etc. So, no, there is neither an increased police presence nor military in the streets, most likely precisely because they were spontaneous lone wolf things. These have been happening quite often in Bavaria anyway, so with the influx of traumatised refugees and the resulting tensions it's to be expected that even more people are going insane.

Well, NOW the streets are crawling with police, at least where I live. Some guy posted on Facebook that he will do the same that happened in Munich here, they are still searching for him.

Wonderful[/sarcasm]. Well, let's hope he doesn't, nor anyone else for that matter, there's been quite enough bloodshed, and propaganda for the AFD this week already.

The Democrats' convention was chaos, every mention of Clinton's name booed. I can only wish them more chaos.

Now is the time for agitation.... Now is the time for communists to speak up and welcome the heartbroken supporters of Bernie. He let down his "revolution", so we must make it ours, and do much more with it than he ever would... The radical left is burning red hot now, the anger is stifling. We need to channel it. Now there's a brand new generation who know what this "democracy" will do for them... Lie and betray them, rob them blind, guilt them to fall to their knees, demand they give up their convictions.

Now's not the time for the American left to hang their head. Now's the time for them to show just how inevitable the plutocrats have made violent revolution.

I wish the best to you americans, the most oppressed people in the western world, i hope for an emancipation of the youth. A rich country without paid leave for maternity is absurd.

Would you not need the ticket to enter the stations or go through any sort of pre-boarding gates, similar to how a Metro (or "Oyster" in your traveling case) Card works? Or do trains still do the thing where some dude walks up and down and asks to see your ticket? Then again, there wasn't much verification involved during some train trips i took between London and Paris as far as i can remember.

There are gates at my home station but they keep them open when the ticket office is shut, which on weekends at least is before 8AM and after 6:30PM, Southall station had no gates, its only notable feature being the Hindi translations of the station signs. The trains I went on were a mix of driver only and those with a conductor. On the two trains with a conductor despite passing me multiple times he never actually asked to see my ticket.

Any opinion on Venezuela situation?
Hugo Chavez has been the main politician that influenced me deeply and that made me really passionated making him my biggest idol, and the next is Thomas Sankara. But after the actual situation i have to criticize two him, 1st he failed to create a self-reliant and productive economy, thinking that the oil money would always be a safe haven and so Venezuela would import everything well this is really wrong and the 2nd thing is his appointment as successor, Nicolas Maduro, an unprepared man, unable to manage such a dire situation and that is leaning every day more to authoritarianism, suppressing the gains of the bolivarian revolution. I recognize that in fact a kind of sabotage is in act from the borgueoise of the country but i think that an economical war is hard to had happen. I think is more probably that opposition cooperates with USA to take advantage of the situation and i think in fact that PSUV would be better to loose power for one or two presidential mandates so to renovate and clean itself, that makes me sad but this would be a solution. So now what's your opinion? Sorry for my english

When I was still in high school I took a Science and Technology of the Cold War class (only of its kind in the United States outside of universities/colleges) and we learned extensively about nuclear power and failures. The US has covered up tens of accidents that nearly ended up with a larger death toll than after Chernobyl melted down, especially the Fermi II reactor in Michigan which nearly melted down sending a radioactive cloud over Detroit and Toronto. Also, Chernobyl was not the only terrible nuclear catastrophe in the USSR, in the 1950s a reactor melted down in the siberia region killing tens to hundreds of people, but the Soviet union working with the British and US covered it up to preserve the governmental sponsoring ability of such a dangerous technology. Chernobyl just happened during an era where the world's populous realized the true nature of how terrible and deadly nuclear technology could be and began protesting it. however, case by case, the Soviet nuclear energy program was far safer than it's US counterpart who in the process of experimenting with new forms of nuclear power nearly had 10+ meltdowns that were only narrowly averted due to luck.

That means soviet technology of nuclear is safer than the US one. As I said, it is 30th anniversity since the worst disaster ever happened(caused Pripyat to be obsolete town and even though it was on April 26) Just reminding on someone.

Contrary to popular belief a lot of Soviet technology was safer than that of the US. The space program for example: many like to characterise it as a load of advancements but with huge accidents and no regard for human life. Although there were huge accidents, the US Space Program actually killed considerably more people before the fall of the USSR, and even went to the extent of denying at least one man recognition he died in the program because he was black. The Soviet Space program was more successful than the American one in every way, it was literally pure chance that the Americans landed the first man on the moon, with the Soviets beating them to effectively every other achievement.

I must say though, towards the end of the program, as safe as it was, it was a huge failure of a program, they repeatedly tried to build the N1 rocket, who's designer died before explaining the design fully to anyone, and decided not to use the functional rocket because the N1 was similarly sized to the Saturn. There were four launches, all failed, and one ended in the largest man-made non-nuclear explosion in all of human history (there's footage of it on YouTube). Henceforth why Russia didn't make it to the moon, their rocket literally couldn't get off the ground due to poor decisions in the space program. What would be comparable to an American system would actually be the aviation industry, not the space industry (Russian was safer but the success rate was far less after the 60's due to poor management). The west constantly bashed soviet aircraft when (besides Antonov) the West owned all but 2 of the top 10 most dangerous and murderous aircraft (biggest example being the 737 aircraft), when soviet aircraft built by Ilyushin and Tupolev far exceeded the safety rating than the US. However, due to capitalistic attack of the USSR and Warsaw Pact Nations, people thought Russian aircraft were more unsafe and therefore their sales were low. However, if you look at Russian aircraft the Il-18 is still flying with the DPRK and has been since the 60s I believe, whereas if an American made plane flew that long, it would end in catastrophe.
