🏢Brutalism

“You can’t do it without us,” the intellectuals who are accustomed to serving the capitalists and the capitalist state console themselves. Their arrogant calculation will not be justified: educated people are already standing out, going over to the side of the people, to the side of the working people, helping to break the resistance of the servants of capital. But there are many organizational talents in the peasantry and working class, and these talents are just beginning to recognize themselves, to awaken, to reach out to lively, creative, great work, to take on the task of building a socialist society on their own."

- Lenin

"The first step towards freeing the working people from this hard labor is the confiscation of landowners' lands, the introduction of workers' control, and the nationalization of banks. The next steps will be the nationalization of factories and factories, the forced organization of the entire population into consumer societies, which are at the same time companies for the sale of products, a state monopoly of trade in bread and other necessary items."

Artist - M. Mitryashkin - 1958

Deadly clashes continue to grip Bangladesh, where the death toll rose to at least 14 as police opened fire on protesters. With more than 7,000 government paramilitary troops deployed, more than 500 people have been injured since the protests turned fatal earlier this week.

Witness testimonies, video, and photographic evidence analyzed and authenticated by Amnesty International and its Crisis Evidence Lab have confirmed the use of force by police against the protesters.

Amid the escalating violence, the government announced that it would engage in dialogue with the students protesting the reinstatement of discriminatory quotas for government jobs. The students, however, have rejected the government’s proposal for talks.

The students continue to call for a nationwide shutdown of the South Asian country as protests spread to other parts of the country beyond the capital, Dhaka.

For those who missed it the first time: Harpal Brar and Caleb Maupin talk with each other (and with me) about the inextricable link between the present imperialist system and war.

One may become a demagogue out of sheer political innocence. But I have shown that you have descended to demagogy, and I will never tire of repeating that demagogues are the worst enemies of the working class. The worst enemies, because they arouse base instincts in the masses, because the unenlightened worker is unable to recognise his enemies in men who represent themselves, and sometimes sincerely so, as his friends. The worst enemies, because in the period of disunity and vacillation, when our movement is just beginning to take shape, nothing is easier than to employ demagogic methods to mislead the masses, who can realise their error only later by bitter experience.

Lenin - What Is To Be Done

Hans Baluschek (German, 1870-1935) - Ironworks, 1925,

"We should be prepared for both words and actions. However fair-minded and just we are, we may become a bargaining chip for the strong and our precious history inherited with blood will loose its shine in a moment if we are weak"
KIM JONG UN

Party members should not only work well but also study hard. Only when they gain knowledge can they look ahead and fight on confidently.

For 15 years the anti-Japanese guerrillas steadily fought Japanese imperialism and attained victory in the face of great hardships. They had to push their way through deep snows and cross countless steep mountains; they had to fight grim battles every day with the army and police of the Japanese imperialists, who were armed to the teeth. Our soldiers had no warm shelter and lacked clothes and food. But they always lived optimistically and fought bravely.

What, then, enabled them to have such conviction and courage?

The reason is that in spite of the severe handicaps facing them, they studied hard and grasped the righteousness of their revolutionary cause and looked confidently ahead to the day of victory. The greater the hardships, the more they studied, and this invigorated and encouraged them. Our Party members must study harder if they are to fight on with a firm conviction of victory, just as the anti-Japanese guerrillas had done previously.

Only when Party members study hard can they correctly analyse and solve any problems that arise and lead the masses. They are the vanguard fighters of the working masses. If they are to play the vanguard fighters’ role properly, they must study more than anybody else and raise their political, ideological and professional levels. When they attain considerable knowledge, they can then educate and guide others.

Having Party members intensify their studies is essential also to the qualitative consolidation of Party ranks.

The Palestinian-led movement Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) has called for "maximum pressure on all states to impose immediate targeted sanctions on Israel" following the unprecedented International Court of Justice ruling that Israel’s settlement policies and exploitation of natural resources in Palestinian territories violate international law.
