The Sangha Kommune (僧伽公社) – A Place of Spiritual and Physical Growth! (Founded 16.2.2010)

The Chinese Buddhist monastic community is referred to as a ‘Sangha’ (Sanskrit for ‘spiritual community’), whereby men and women form a voluntary association premised upon following a strict set of rules known as the ‘Vinaya Discipline’. Within this community, there is ‘equality’ between all members, with the leaders being those who have followed these rules for the longest times. This is because such people are thought to have more experience at adhering to the Vinaya Discipline (which includes celibacy and vegetarianism), and are therefore able to effectively advise all others through the difficult times they my face in their practice. As those with little experience have less to share, they are not considered leaders whilst more experienced practitioners live in the vicinity.

UK: Post-Service on Doomed [1912] Titanic – Still Better than “Privatised” Royal Mail Today – Auctioneers Confirm! (23.7.2026)

Hodges boarded the ship on her voyage to New York City from Southampton on 10 April 1912, having spent £13 on his second-class ticket.

His letter was postmarked Queenstown, the former name for the Irish port of Cobh, the Titanic’s final stopping point before heading out to the Atlantic.

In his letter, Hodges wrote about the “fine” weather and the atmosphere on the ship.

It said: “Dear Hector, very many thanks for the telegram and for the good wishes. It was a kind and thoughtful act and much appreciated, and you will please convey my thanks to the members of our association.

“Wasn’t it good of the President to come and see me off? I almost believe I could have persuaded him to come along. We have had a fine time up to now.

“You do not see anything of the movement of the ship, but the weather is very fine.”

He also described that everything was “quite different to what you would expect to see at sea” and said he saw about 200 boys marching round and singing, playing dominoes and cards on the top deck.

China: Japan on Brink of Manufacturing Nuclear-Weapons! (22.7.2026)

Imperial Japan – a fascist entity – was the enemy of the US both before and during WWII. Indeed, the Pacific War was brutal – and this brutality inspired the US to request that the Soviet Red Army and Mongolian People’s Army enter Northeast China and clear it out of all Japanese colonial and militaristic presence in 1945. Although the US dropped two atomic bombs onto civilians targets in Japan during WWII – the US has used a defeated Japan as a bulwark against the spread of Socialism in Asia – on the one-hand banning nuclear weapons in Japan – whilst simultaneously supplying all the constituent parts (and radio-active components) for such weapons to be assembled at short-notice (just in-case the US needs to fire said weapons from Japanese territory). This policy has unfolded whilst the US has hypocritically bombed Iran for Israel – and Israel has bombed everywhere else using US-supplied weaponry. To be clear, an unstable (far-right) Japan has been given a) permission to gather all the constituent parts that are used to manufacture a nuclear weapon by the US, and is b) under its current far-right government is agitating to assemble this gathered material into functioning nuclear bombs to threaten China (like the nuclear bombs in the UK – these weapons of mass destruction cannot be fired without the permission of the US – as this safeguard prevents these weapons being used against the US).

VJP Spokesperson States "Dog Acted in Seductive Manner!"

India: Naresh Chandulkar – Quite Literally “Shadow-Banned” – in Immoral BJP-Era Animal Abuse Scandel! (21.7.2026)

India is a filthy, backward country – with large swathes of the country still existing within feudalism where no capitalist economy has developed. People still live by traditional culture and barter. Hundreds of years of imperialist oppression has sucked the wealth (natural resources) out of India causing tremendous poverty. The India of sublime philosophy only exists in the very remote areas free of modernity. The minority rich, mimicking their Western counter-parts, live in purpose-built gated communities that possess every luxury – protected by heavily armed private armies. Outside these oasis of Western-style civilisation, the huddled Indian masses exist in shanty towns of cardboard boxes – relieving themselves in the streets, or local water supplies (as there are no sawyers). Poverty and disease are rampant. The rich Indians employ a vicious police and military to prevent the Indian masses from rising-up and triggering a Socialist Revolution. The educated think they are cementing their privilege by voting in the far-right BJP government – which is in the pockets of the US and Israel. The US funds India to be continuously racist toward China and prevent the spread of Socialism across the border! After-all, whilst millions of Indians still starve – the Communist Party of China has eradicated hunger in China and will soon land Cosmonauts on the Moon and Mars! From the details of the article below – it would seem that the privileged bourgeoisie in India are just as decadent as their Western counter-parts. Although this individual was caught in broad daylight raping a dog – paedophilia is rife in BJP India – and nobody cares! This is the nature of religiously inspired fascism!
