ParticipantPanama was not only used to transport commodities thru the commodities. It was also the country where the School of the Americas existed and used to train military, terrorists and torturers

In DJP’s link, at around 2mins30secs we get a clear explanation from a US senator of the need for ‘humanitarian aid’ – it’s about attempting to protect raw materials supplies, trade routes etc. Who’d have thought it?
==============================================================================================================All that crap about undermining USA democracy for the peoples is false, the founders of the USA never believed in the rules of the majority, they were also a bunch of oligarchy, the domination of an oligarchy in the USA is not new, it is more than 200 years old, Joe Biden made a new discovery and he is part of that class.
To dismantle and to eliminate federal agencies is nothing new, it has existed before the time of Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump is the culmination of that process, it just proves what has been said by the socialist party that taxation place a heavy burden on the profits of the capitalist class, the idea about workers being a taxpayer is just a USA fallacy to make workers believe that they are part of the capitalist state and they control the government and that politicians and presidents are their employees.
The capitalist state is the executive apparatus that exists in order to manage the affairs of the capitalist class, and a capitalist society without a state is only an illusion, and there are some anarcho capitalists who support Donald Trump, that is the reason why he is a buddy of the president of Argentina, they following the same route of Argentina. Pensions and retirements are just deferred salary and they are part of the class struggle, it is not a right or gift from the state, and entailment, they also place heavy burden on the capitalist profits and the USA is becoming a society of elderly peoples.
All that thing about Panama, Greenland, Gaza, and the USAID is only a show, a distraction from the real purpose which is capitalist expansions and struggle for world hegemony against China and Russia, and the struggle for mining and raw materials, Ellon Musk and the USA capitalists class need raw materials, specially rare earth, and the Latin America region has what they want in order to be used for the modern technological industry including space ships, electric cards, and chips. If the USA wants to apply to itself the slogan from the river to the sea in the Middle East, it will need an army that they do not have and might be defeated again like in Iraq and Afghanstan
The whole east cost of Latin America, has lithium, cobalt and other rare earth and Orinoco basin has everything that they need including gold and petroleum, as well, Joe Biden was doing secretive talks with the government of Venezuela in order to lift certain restrictions and Chevron obtained several permits to be able to export oil toward the USA, the release of prisoners is not deal made by Trump is part of the process initiated by Trump and the agreement was signed in Qatar and it was published by the Venezuelan government.
The new government of Chile made a big campaign about nationalizing the lithium and the Cooper and putting it in the hands of the peoples and it was only a show, that raw materials belong to very powerful corporations, there are rare earth in the Dominican Republic and Haiti, and they are sending they new emissary and hawk known as Marco Rubio to protect those natural resources for the USA corporations and the USA is trying to become the leader on chips production. They confiscated two presidential planes of Venezuela like pirates, but it is part of their struggle against those governments that are allied with China and Rusia, and China does not control the Panama Canal, and if they do, it has been the decision of the government of Panama who owns the canal, and the USA pushed a revolt in order to build the canal when Panama was part of the Great Colombia, the used the tactic that was used in order to take the territory of Texas
It is known for many years that the USAID has double purposes, one is presenting itself as an agency of humanitarian aid, and the other one is in order to impose the USA purpose in Latin America and the third world country, to promote coup, and armed government that have been placed by them in power, and in the old days it was part of the struggle with the soviet union, against the so called communism, and against Cuba, Several journalists were also in the payroll of the USAID and now it has been exposed

Attacking Trump as a “Fake Billionaire” Is a Dead End
The real scandal isn’t that Donald Trump is secretly poor — it’s that our system let such an obvious fraud get so rich.

ParticipantHe did not have the money to place a bond bail and some companies did not want to provide insurance him. Most of his attorney fees were paid by his supporters, and probably someone else put the money to obtain a bail for his New York civil suit for frauds.
PS Peoples sometimes suffer from historical amnesia, with the emerge of large real estate business, most working class neighborhoods were completely wipeout and workers were kicked out from those places. Houses and apartments became super expensive, most of them were blacks and latinos, and some of them voted and elected the same class that kicked them out from those neighborhoods.

ParticipantThe civil suit showed that all that was inflated, he did not have the money that he said that he had. There is an articles on The Washington Post indicating that he lied in order to be reported on Forbes as a billionaire. His liabilities are more than his assets

ParticipantProbably, his parents and the atmosphere where he grew up was his biggest problem. This is the biography written by his niece. His brother was different, he wanted to be a pilot, he did not want to run the family business

ParticipantThis is a journalist who knows Donald Trump and has investigated him for more than 30 years.
He has written three books and all three described what Trump really is.
I have read them and he is very accurate, probably, more accurate than Trump niece.
Too bad people did not pay attention to his remarks, but in the USA most peoples do not read books, they prefer bottled news and commentators, and there is a big idolatry about leadership, class struggle is completely hidden within the working class, and class consciousness practically does not exist either
Trump is not a successful businessman as he has always presented himself, and he is not a billionaire either.
His father left him the money that he also made by cheating poor workers in New York during the real estate boom and during the gentrification, he is not like the traditional US capitalist family who have developed the business left by prior relatives such as the Rockefeller, Morgan, Dupont and Ford
He is not a career politician like Joe Biden, he is a con artist, and he has been associated with all kind of peoples and businesses including mafiosos in order to make money.
Trump was legal prosecuted because he was a dangerous opponent to the Democratic Party, but he has been a legendary criminal, without his political challenging he would have never been prosecuted because he has done what others have done, and are doing at the present time, putting him on jail would have open a pandora box, it was like prosecuting Al Capone for his real crimes who had judges, politicians, senators, lawyers, bankers, and policemen on his pocket.
Donald Trump is just administering a capitalist society that is falling apart from its economic base, infrastructure and superstructure, and its hegemony has been challenged by other economic powers, and he is been supported by the most reactionary sector of the US ruling elite,
He is a lame duck and he can not run again unless they amend the constitution, and they are not going to do that, and he is going to be challenged again on the partial election and his opponent are going to take control of the congress, he is like a bull in a ceramic store, and he is going to fall badly.
He is not the problem, the real problem is the actual condition of the world capitalist society
The so called founders fathers of the US created the mechanism to avoid the control of the majority
PS: This is not a progressive journalist, he is the normal US citizen who believes in the so called American dream, and think that the USA government is a government of the peoples and that presidents works for the peoples, and that president are employed by the people, but his recollection on Donald Trump are correct

ParticipantThe Italian fascists took the military idea from the Roman Empire,( Combattimento ) and the USA is going thru a similar process like the fall of the Roman Empire, but the actual government of the UsA is not equal to the Italian Fascism or the German Nazism, and the characteristic mentioned by the left-wingers already existed before the emerge of fascism, and the Soviet Union is included too, indeed the Soviet empire was racist, xenophobic, colonial, and warmonger, but it was not fascist or nazis either, brutal violence is not exclusive of the fascists or the nazis, it is a proper distinction of the capitalist society and the capitalist state is violent. The USA, Japanese, British and French empires were/are racists, warmongers, xenophobic, and homophobic
The Nazis salute did not come from the Roman Empire , it existed in other cultures before Fascism and Nazism, despite being often called a “Roman salute,” the Nazi salute did not originate from ancient Rome and there is no evidence that such a gesture was used by the Romans; historians believe the gesture likely originated from 19th-century art depicting Roman scenes, particularly Jacques-Louis David’s painting “The Oath of the Horatii” which featured a raised arm gesture, and was later adopted by Fascist leaders like Mussolini and then Hitler.
The book cited by DJP is very good, and we are going thru that process when reading and trying to get self educated is been thrown away,, culture are been rejected and denigrated, I grew up under a different environmental where we were bibliophile, we loved cultures, the renaissance, the enlightenment, , before the emerge of online school we already had the discipline to educate ourselves thru correspondence schools because reading was our hobby, and the reading of Marx and Engels gave us better political and social education, it was a new world of new ideas. Those days are gone, I hope young peoples take the same road again, and bookstores and libraries become popular again
Ideology are the prevailing ideas that prevail in a class society, and the prevailing idea in our society is the bourgeois ideology, and most ideology has their origin from an economic base, and fascism/nazism was a form adopted by capitalism in Germany and Italy, and it worked in Germany and it produces beneficial consequences for the German capitalist class, but those economical conditions do not exist in our time, instead of burning books, we need more books, although sometimes bookstores is not the only solution because Buenos Aires is surrounded by bookstores and workers fell in the trap of anarcho capitalism, and it is not a new movement, it started before the presidency of Muaricio Macri, even more, Domingo Peru flirted with Nazism
Fascist and Nazis were completely defeated and overthrown by eternal forces, ( included those that continue repeating the same nazis scare ) and it emerged under a weak economic infrastructure, in our time with the establishing of strong capitalist limited democracy the capitalist do not need fascism, and rightwing movement can not be associated with fascism/nazism, and at the present time right wingers are very popular among the ranks of the working class, millions of workers love them, and they have established the cult of the leadership.
The article written by Adam about fascism is not his exclusive idea either, even more, some Trostkyists writers have had the same ideas but they continue defending the concept of the dictatorship of the party to lead. There is a book review of one of them in the SPGB/WSM website, but that is the best definition of Fascism/nazism

ParticipantThe Maoists can write and say whatever they want, they are all wrong.
The asiatic mode of production was described by Marx in this notebooks. The Institute of Marxism-Leninism of Moscow did not dig into them because they describe the same society that they were defending in the Soviet Union and around the whole world

ParticipantSo the collision was nothing to do with diversity after all….
——————————————————
Only idiots and imbeciles can believe that
The helicopters pilots were white women and highly trained
More than 75% of the Air controllers are white men and white women
The secretary of defense is a white man who replaced a black man with a long military career and the other one was a newsman and a torturer in Guantanamo Bay prisons,
Most Air controllers employees received an email proposal to quit or be fired
The same pretext used during WW 2 at the airforce with the black pilots and they became the best P-51 pilots and now they want to erase them from the books of history and all the reforms and gains obtained by the civil rights movement. Jim Crow is back again, and the precedent separated but equal is back again too

https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/selected-works/volume-5/index.htm
That is volume no, 5 which some of his military writings. He recognized that state capitalism existed in China
The whole Chinese revolution was a peasant revolution, and the main objective of that process was toward a land reform like the Bolsheviks and most third world peasant revolution including the Mexican Zapatas revolution, and the cuban revolution.
Guerrilla warfare is the way to take control of the state and the economic base, like Castroism and Guevaraism, Ernesto Che Guevara was a Maoist who advocated for a society without monetary system.
Maoism is chinese peasant nationalism
Feudalism never existed in China, or Asia, it only existed in Japan but it was also different to European feudalism, China was based on the Asiatic despotic mode of production, similar to Russia state capitalism
Enver Hoxha called Mao and Maoism the new Chinese Confucius, There is not any Marxist phraseology on Maoism which is different to Lenin, and Stalin, Trotsky permanent revolution could have been applied to China too,
Maoism ramifications is more than Mao Red book, and the Three World Theory is the culmination of Mao Tse Tung thought which was an anti marxist theory propagated as a Marxist conception and negated by the supporters of the gangs of five and they were saying that they overthrown by a coup
Maoism was very popular in Latin America because it is third world theory and some organization rejected Castroism in order to adopt Maoism, when they applied the third word theory to Chile and others dictatorship there was a split and Albania took a big chunk of the Maoist movement.
One benefits of the Chinese revolution was the creation of the Institute of foreign language which allows them to publish and propagate the works of Marx and Engels and the printing was very affordable, and China books and periodical was their main distributor

ParticipantI had read that article but it does not cover everything about the so called Mao Tse Tung thought. This book written by a Leninist known as Enver Hoxha cover more about Mao Tse Tung. We must read both sides, the red book of quotations of Mao is not enough, his five volume of collected works include more, it is like just reading one or two pamphlets of Lenin, even more, most Leninists have not read Lenin either
https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/hoxha/works/imp_rev/imp_ch6.htm
https://www.marxists.org/history/erol/ncm-5/red-dawn.htm
The three world theory was developed by Mao Tse Tung and it is part of the so called Mao Tse Tung thought and it was the foundation of several Maoist parties around the world and members had to study that theory, in the same way that What is to be donde was the foundation of most Leninist party

ParticipantI do not think that Fascism is going to be established in the USA, or in any established limited capitalist democracy like England, France, or Germany.
The left-wingers ( Stalinists and Trotskyists ) see fascists/nazis all over the earth. and they have been singing the same lyrics for several years,( post fascism ) but they have been approving the vanguard party to lead since it was created by the Bolsheviks, and they have supported third world” dictators for several decades.
Fascism was a form adopted in Germany and Italy in order to manage capitalism, like state capitalism was a form adopted in Russia in order to manage capitalist development
In our time racism, authoritarian governments, xenophobia, homofophia, and wars are considered as elements of fascism, and those characteristic are totally wrong, that is not fascism or nazism, those elements existed before the emerge of fascism in Italy and Germany. Austerity plans and monetarism is not fascism either
The Socialist Party has explained very clearly what fascism really is
The government of Donald Trump is not going to take the USA toward a fascist society, some of the measures that he is carrying were already implemented by prior administrations, even more, the massive deportation bill was also approved by the Democratic Party, the war in Ukraine was started and finance by the Democratic Party and the massacre in Gaza was also approved and financed by the Democratic Party, both parties have approved bipartisanship bills in detriment of the working class
