Elections Won’t Defeat Fascism, Only We Can

"As the election looms over US political life, from the unemployment lines, to the immigrant detention facilities built by Obama and Biden and made a home for eugenics and family separation by Trump, to the wealthy suburbs Biden and Trump both focus their campaigning on, we say that the slogan of “defeat Trump” is insufficient. As Malcolm X said in 1964, and as the Bolsheviks argued in 1917, the ballot can be a tool for revolutionaries, one that shouldn’t be ignored. But we should never, particularly as fascism grows in power in the United States, reduce our slogans to the old electoral games of “this election is too important.” Our lives as working people are too seriously imperiled by resurgent state and right violence to refuse to see, as the whole country did during this week’s debate, that we lose in either case—without a real popular movement."

Strict Emergency Anti-Epidemic Measures Taken in DPRK

Pyongyang, October 31 (KCNA) -- Stricter anti-epidemic measures for thoroughly checking the inroads of COVID-19 are being taken in the DPRK.

At the same time, anti-epidemic workers are encouraged to enhance their role in keeping with the concentration of manpower on restoring structures like wharves and bulwarks.

The inspection and quarantine units have fully prepared individual protection equipment and various disinfectants to carefully disinfect imports and vehicles, while pushing ahead with making our style sterilizers.

The public health organs pay deep attention to thoroughly establishing the system for medical checkup and examination and the system for notifying those with fever and enhancing the sense of responsibility and role of medical workers in charge of communities and households, and urge inhabitants to take good care of their health against seasonal change.

The emergency anti-epidemic units across the country are dynamically conducting public information activities to let builders, volunteers and agricultural workers fulfill their duty as masters of anti-epidemic campaign, given that the recovery campaign and harvesting are coming on apace. -0

Hydro-electric power generation in the DPRK, thoughts?

Kim Jong-un seems to have inherited his father's love of hydroelectric power production. What are comrades thoughts on this?

Images of the large power generating dams are seen all over DPRK, on billboards and posters, military badges and stamps. The small nation generates the majority of its electric energy through these dams.

"While taking measures for generating electricity to the maximum at existing power stations, we should draw up correct prospective plans for radically easing the strain on electricity supply and exert ourselves to carry them out. It is important to produce more electricity with priority given to hydraulic resources, and by using wind, geothermal, solar and other kinds of natural energy." - Kim Jong-un, 2014 New Years address

So is the DPRK paving the future of energy generation or is it stuck in its own past?

Given the problems and difficulties endured over the last 70 years since they occupied the first early model hydroelectric dams from imperial Japan on Korean land, to the completion of the newest and most modern small Kumyagang power plant, why do they persist?

Personally I've loved the idea since I first learned of it and the concept that man can live in relative harmony with nature and still generate modern and ample amounts of electric power is very attractive to me. Living in Southern Ontario I've seen Niagara Falls many times, its massive amounts of water flow unendingly and provide a large amount of force to power dozens of plants from Niagara to New York.

Globally, hydropower generates 16.6% of the world's total electricity and 70% of all renewable electricity and is expected to increase by about 3.1% each year for the next 25 years. Hydroelectric generation was a big priority for the late Kim Jong-il and the majority of Pyongyang's power comes from the Huichon Power Station on the Chongchon River, this is a multi-tier system with a dozen or so small similar plants each using the river's power.

How do the comrades of North Korea feel about this? Is hydroelectric considered "clean energy"? Does it actually work in harmony with nature? Do any of you live near hydroelectric power stations?
What is your ideal form of power generation?

Revolutionary regards;

V Ming

Billionaires are buying up rural land and creating luxury bunkers for a reason: they know that one day, they’ll have to retreat into fortified doomsday compounds to escape the turbulence of the coming decades. In this event-which won’t come about all at once, but through a gradual process of destabilization-most countries will end up becoming sacrifice zones for these plutocrats. And the U.S., with its severe risks of climate damage in most places, brewing potential for civil war, economic deterioration which surpasses that of much of the rest of the developed world, and exceptional vulnerability to pandemics, is prime to become one of those zones.

Comrades, today November 7, we commemorate the day the October Revolution broke out. This glorious revolution marked the grand entrance of communism to the world stage, and the birth of what would later become the Soviet Union - the second homeland of proletariats all over the world!

The legacy of October Revolution is exceptional and unrivaled throughout history of all mankind, its importance can't be stressed enough. The October Revolution emancipated the working people of Russia from the shackles of the bourgeoisies as well as the capitalist system, and it has inspired countless other progressive movements around the world.

Long live Comrade Lenin! Long live the Bolsheviks! Long live the Revolution!

"Marxism and the Underdog" by Katherine Perlo. ABSTRACT: Marxism has defined its key values in opposition to animals other than human in order to promote the interests of the most downtrodden human beings. Although it has characterized itself as a scientific historical and economic theory, sympathy for human suffering has provided its most powerful motivation as a political force. This capacity for sympathy, causing in modern times an extension of Marxist concerns beyond "class" in the original sense, is beginning to accommodate animals as are the theoretical concepts of alienation, surplus value, and historical materialism. Marxism's inconsistencies are being resolved in favor of the side that, for human as well as animal benefit, favors individual sentience and other pro-animal values. So, in a truly dialectical progression, the same quality of sympathy that at first caused Marxism to denigrate animals is now coming out in their support.

It's pretty clear that with this article the author is searching for marxism to incorporate a defense of animals into its characteristics. However I think the end result is a just big mess that doesn't achieve very well that goal, butchering a few marxist concepts in the process of trying to apply them to animals, as well of relying too much on views of "modern marxists" (Orwell? Really?) to defend their position, attributing the popularity and spread of marxism to "sympathy" and some weird views against industrialism to finish the recipe.
