wondering if that org is even real at this point tbh


yeah they’ve essentially made a color revolution factory, an interesting take ive seen is that a big failure of communists is that we’ve failed to be able to “manufacture” communists in the same kind of way


this is some good ass copium, finest ive seen in a bit. however its copium i desperately need so i will also be choosing to partake, trust the plan!!!


article from 2023: https://cpiran.org/the-history-of-the-communist-party-of-iran/
…From the revolutionary Kurdistan, where the Kurdistan Organization of the Communist Party of Iran (Komaleh) is the leader of a mass movement and organizer of a revolutionary movement…
…
… the Kurdistan Organization of the Communist Party of Iran – Komaleh, is also doing its part in preparing the red army of proletariat for the revolution and socialism by organizing Peshmerga (guerrilla) forces and a revolutionary base in Kurdistan …
is the “Komaleh” connected to Komala?


i do agree that if you’re a principled comrade attending a PSL event and you’re not actually a part of the org it wouldnt hurt to gently try to encourage these people not to bring those flags


i will take your word for it ig, but it still leaves the question in how many chapters actually have both the amount of dedicated cadre and integration into the community to actually carry out that order


im not aware of any advertised civil disobedience, but my impression is they have a big hand in the ICE watch community defense stuff in areas they have a strong presence along with other various mutual aid programs. if there were any PSL agitators somewhere in any protests they’ve kept it to themselves


it’s not rocket science but it’s not actually that far off imo? i dont really disagree that these peaceful protests will ultimately do nothing besides try and connect principled anti-imperialists together, but im also not the one risking the hammer of god coming down on my head by making the call to escalate at a protest im responsible for, so i think if we’re going to suggest they escalate we should be very specific in how we think they should escalate. get up on stage and call for a march on a police station? use your cadre to try and start a riot? do you send your safety marshals with rifles? there are a lot of different ways to escalate


i think doing it directly during a speech would be kind of dumb and waste of your speech time. you are a lot more likely to have success if you have your organizers try to gently encourage some of them to bring a different flag to the next protest after a generally antiamerica speech on stage


it sounds like that PSL chapter just sucks which supports my earlier comment


i definitely think they should not be posting libshit on their own official instagram


i think you and your chapter do good work from what you’ve described on here but you need to admit that not every PSL chapter is even 1/10 as effective or principled as yours, it wouldnt be surprising at all to me that lunchfiend’s local PSL chapter is either libbed up or just too weak to actually meaningfully contest the dems’ message at these protests (which unless it is a relatively new chapter probably reflects poorly on the chapter’s leadership)


i think the issue is that PSL kinda has the same problem as DSA to me: some chapters are 100x better than others and im not actually sure how much control the national PSL organization has over the individual chapters. if PSL sent an order down saying to escalate, how many chapters would actually be able to meaningfully escalate? hell, how exactly should they escalate? encourage protestors to riots? start arming their safety marshalls? etc.


i thought he just wasnt online very much anymore, would be funny if ive been reading 72T comments and not realizing it lol


wait really wtf??? i thought they were just using molotovs, cia/mossad is giving “protestors” flamethrowers???


appreciate it! i think there could be some use for counter protestors; but i think that you are right that allowing counterprotestors would make identifying the saboteurs much harder.


ah that makes sense.


do you know if the government is encouraging these pro gov rallys only to happen during the day to protect the civillians from the western backed groups who are going out at night? like im trying to ask if there are any counterprotests at night? @oliveoil@hexbear.net


i miss the 72T news roundups so much tbh, idk why but calling him commisar 72T made me think of those lol
i dont think you can draw any absolute conclusions from this, couldnt it just be that cia was running bot farms in Iran to try and make this activity look more legit ?
