Venezuela: Trump Fascism Opposed Through Socialist Sporting Excellence!

Venezuela: Trump Fascism Opposed with Socialist Sporting Excellence! (25.9.2025)

23/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

“We beat Brazil in the final! I celebrate that we qualified for the World Cup for the first time in history in this category. Bravo, girls, for such a commendable performance! What a pride!”

We are dreaming from the grassroots, investing and making real Marxist efforts and actions so that our youth – and our people – can realize their hopes and expectations. We are the victorious generation of Venezuela!

The future is ours! Sicialism is self-strengthening! We depend on no one but ourselves!

Omwards to Victory!

UK: Lenin Was Right – Keep Out of Bourgeois-Leftist Movements! (22.9.2025)

22/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Lenin was right – think for yourself – as a proletariat heart must not be misled by nefarious forces external to it. Stalin was a great leader – as was Mao Zedong and Ho Chi Minh. We must not forget all the great Black thinkers and leaders. Do not sink into the swamp of mediocrity – but stand-up straight and proud! Corbyn failed use twice in 2017 and 2019 – and he is failing us again. Young people should rise-up and a new generation of genuine Revolutionaries should take their place in the political frontlines. We stand-up to racists – left or right – to us they are exactly the same and we will be joining neither!

China: History of the Advanced Stealth J20 [歼-20-Jian-20] Fighter-Jet! (22.9.2025)

22/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

In addition, the stealth fighter is able to team up with early-warning aircraft and unmanned planes to form a combat system, according to the designer.

“The J-20’s deployment enables the Air Force to carry out not only defensive tasks but also offensive operations. The jet’s excellent solo and joint combat power has resulted in the creation of new fighting patterns by the Air Force,” he said.

He also noted that the integrated aerodynamic configuration of the J-20, which features a lifter body and two fully movable canards, also known as foreplanes, is an internationally pioneering design.

Code-named the Mighty Dragon, the J-20 made its public debut in November 2016 at the 11th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition in Zhuhai, Guangdong province. It entered service with the Air Force later that year, becoming only the third stealth fighter jet in the world to enter service following the F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II of the United States.

Sutton: St Nicholas Church – Feeding Squrrels & Pigeons! (21.9.2025)

21/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

We visited the Church-yard of St Nicholas Church on the 14.9.2025 – a pleasant Saturday afternoon in South-West London (formerly East Surrey). At the moment we are experiencing what we use to call an “Indian Summer” – providing this is still an acceptable analogy (who knows – the ground upon which we stand keeps dissolving into loose sand). Either way, communing with wild animals teaches children empathy, sympathy, and kindness. This is inter-species communication – a very important aspect of a civilised upbringing and education. From a superstitious Buddhist view – all life is karmically inter-related following endless cycles of rebirth (bundles of life-habit living through all different life-forms until the realisation of enlightenment breaks the cycle). Is this real? I have no idea – but the Buddha seems to think rebirth is a Brahmanic myth – but it is a myth which he uses to convey his teaching and make his point, etc.

UK: Sultanas & Lemons – Corbyn & Co Head to the Elephant’s Graveyard! (21.9.2025)

21/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

I have seen this cycle of political abuse unfold in the UK liberal democratic system so many times – that I am beginning to think that there must be an elephant’s graveyard somewhere near Westminster where old, wounded, or decrepit far-left leaders go to die. Perhaps Johnny Weissmuller’s “Tarzan” will follow one of them into that special grove – just over the rainbow bridge – where all the Red Ivory will be neatly stacked. Having lived as long as I have, I watch the faces of the innocent youth with sympathy as they discover (for the first-time) how UK political corruption works. Seeing the sorrow and disappointment on their fresh-faces is heart-wrenching to say the least. As a person with experience – all I can tell them is to a) get use to betrayal, and b) learn to hold the line in the face of adversity. Giving them undue comfort now – would prove disempowering for them in the future. In the future they must be stronger than they are now to face the challenges they will have to face – when my generation is gone.

Netherlands: Dutch Parliament Votes to “Outlaw” Antifa! (19.9.2025)

19/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

How many British soldiers died freeing Holland from its brutal Nazi German occupation? How many Dutch people collaborated with their Nazi German oppressors? This just shows how easily fascism can spread when the human will is no longer there to oppose it. Anti-fascism is one of the golden threads that runs through all civilised societies – it is a concept, a principle, that cannot be “outlawed” anymore than the principle of gravity can be disrupted just because a favourite object once broke when dropped. Oppression can be applied, yes that can happen, we know this, because the bourgeois do it to us all the time. It is environmental pressure (such as capitalist oppression) that causes ALL evolutionary development. Therefore, the greater the societal pressure – the greater the working-class response to it will become. The more we are oppressed – the greater will be the eventual working-class response to it.
