    The allegations made by Donald Trump about China controlling the canal are not valid. China is building its own commercial route by creating the Peru megaport . The real Chinese influences is thru commercial trade which is around 480 billions dollars and getting closer to the USA commercial trade

    The biggest capitalist deal with China is the Orinoco basin, and area which has petroleum and rare earth minerals and China signed a commercial deal with the government of Venezuela.

    Inter class disputes for world market

    As the world waits to see how the return of Donald Trump will reshape relations between Washington and Beijing, China has just taken decisive action to entrench its position in Latin America.
    Trump won the US presidential election on a platform that promised tariffs as high as 60% on Chinese-made goods. Further south, though, a new China-backed megaport has the potential to create whole new trade routes that will bypass North America entirely.
    President Xi Jinping himself attended the inauguration of the Chancay port on the Peruvian coast this week, an indication of just how seriously China takes the development.

    PS: There are rumors that China might also build a Megaport in Central America

    It look like Donald Trump is not going to get whatever he wants this time despite the fact Republicans are controlling both houses by a narrow majority

    The conditions for better living and a better society already exists, and everything has been created by the working class, and most peoples continue marching behind and tailgating the stupid leaders, worshipping state ministers , fighting for reformism, and begging for crumbs of bread We are just a bunch of masochists

    The socialist party has resources to record the articles of the socialist standard every month in a podcast, many Leninists organizations are doing that every day.

    It was a suggestion made many years ago and nobody paid attention, as well, there are better platform than this one for discussion forums

    The articles of the Socialist Standard should be translated to different languages every month.

    The ICC was born in France and they have branches in different countries around the world and they publish their articles in different languages .

    The IMHO started from zero a few years ago and they have branches and contacts in different parts of the world

    That could prove to be counter-productive from their own point of view. Being taught about “communism” may lead some to go further and seek out what the word originally meant and so to realise that the so-called “communist” countries aren’t communist. Actually, as Lew points out here, they don’t even claim to be.

    ——————————————————————————————————–

    Precisely, that is what really happened during the 60 and 70, when government prohibited the reading of Marx, Engels and Lenin works, youngsters and workers started to read them, and they were carrying pamphlets inside comic books and playboy magazine as camouflage, and workers listened shortwave radio with broadcasting ( they were prohibited too ) from Russia, Cuba, China and Albania, but with the only difference that many peoples became attracted toward China and Albania instead of real communism

    The real concept of socialism/communism was never learned, and the real conception of Leninism was never learned either, when the WSM forum in Spanish was established it was a surprise and shock for many of them to read about Lenin state capitalists conceptions, and the real true that none of them were socialists or communist, and that the real socialist was Martov, for most of them based on the propaganda distributed by the Maoists and the Stalinist, Leninism was considered a communist conception

    Several organizations dumped Castroism in order to adopted Maoism and Hoxhaism during the controversy with the Soviet Union and the so called soviet social imperialism, now the case with the USA might be different because workers might learn that those so called communists countries never established communism and also those countries never said that they were communists either, and in our time the access to Marx and Engels works are widely distributed in the Internet, and they might also learn that socialism/communism in one country it is just a fallacy from both sides

    No wonder, workers are so confused about the concept of socialism/communism. A so called communist group defending the so called democratically elected government of Syria, and a religious fanatic resistance. Al Assad was a brutal dictatorship who left Syria with billions of dollars and he is living like a king in Russia while peoples are living in poverty. The same situation is taking place with some groups in Latin America supporting the government and the leadership of Iran

    Christians in Syria

    I have read that under the new situation in Syria Christians are having some difficulties. Syria was the last secular state in that area, and Christians have existed in Syria since the first century. Paul was not a jew,( in the traditional sense ) he was a Syrian converted to Judaism ( proselyte ) and he had Roman citizenship

    The left-wingers are the first ones who think that killing a CEO will resolve the problem, as well, they think that the main problem in the US is Trumpism, or that the main problem in Russia is Putin . They should know better that the problem is capitalism or the profit system
