Proletariat Blogging in the Heart of (UK) Predatory Capitalism! Exploring the Interface between Matter and Perception, Chinese Buddhism, Daoism, Hakka Ethnography, and All Aspects of Radical Politics, History, Psychology and Philosophy – 全世界无产者联合起来!
The International Military Tribunal for the Prosecution and Punishment of Major War Criminals from the European Axis States (the Nuremberg Trials) found the leaders of the Nazi regime guilty of crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, among others. The acts of expulsion and extermination of the civilian population of the USSR by the Nazis and their accomplices, as established by the verdict of the Nuremberg Trials, must be considered genocide against the Soviet peoples.
How sad it is to see a “capitalist” Russia fighting a proxy war with the US in Ukraine – whilst attending cordial meetings with the current leader of that ogre – Donald Trump – pretending there’s no connection between the US and Neo-Nazi weaponry that is killing Russian soldiers and murdering Russian civilians. It is also disturbing to see Russia cosying-up to Zionist Israel – the high-level diplomatic meetings of which are being trumpeted across Russian-language media as being of a very “great success” – at exactly the same time as Russia removes the “Taliban” off the Terrorist List! What a long way we have come from the mighty (Soviet) Red Army entering Afghanistan in support of the democratically elected “Socialist” government chosen by the most progressive element of Afghan society! The US (in fact its CIA Operative – Osama Bin Laden) founded the “Islamo-Fascist” movement then termed the “Mujahadeen” – and now referred to by hundreds of splinter names – “ISIS”, “Al Qaeda”, “ISIL”, and the “Taliban” being just a few. Is Russia collaborating with the US – trading its own integrity for land in Ukraine? I remember the photographs of the heads of murdered Soviet soldiers which had to be “stitched” back on to the necks they had been severed from before being delivered back to their families – simply because they refused to “revert” to Islam whilst held prisoner in Afghanistan between 1979-1989. After-all, like Soviet Socialism – it is all in the past.
Everything is directed toward the sustaining and strengthening the selfish individualism of predatory capitalism – whilst perfecting the avoidance and suppression of the collective selflessness that represents Socialism. As the current Labour Party takes away our jobs, homes, welfare, medical care, elderly care, culture, identity, and education – we are brainwashed to think that our suffering is in fact our “HAPPINESS” – and if we dare to rebel, to defy our own demise, then a Judge will imprison us for carrying a Red Flag in public, or standing in a street during a process. A land fit for heroes indeed!
It encourages their involvement in care services for left-behind children, elderly care and support for people with disabilities.
The working plan also calls for assistance to rural left-behind women with disabilities or financial difficulties and their families, while supporting charitable organizations in launching targeted public welfare initiatives.
In addition, the state departments would strengthen the protection of rural left-behind women’s legal rights, work to prevent discrimination and domestic violence, and expand access to healthcare services for this population, according to the working plan.
Rural left-behind women are defined as those who remain in rural areas while their husbands work away from home for more than six months.
Yet one of the most unexpected tributes to the first cosmonaut lies far from space museums or bustling capitals — on the windswept Orkney Islands, off the north coast of Scotland.
Here, just steps from the Neolithic village of Skara Brae – a UNESCO World Heritage Site inhabited over 5,000 years ago – stands a carved stone that simply reads: “First Man in Space, AD 1961”. Nestled among markers of human milestones, it honours Gagarin’s place in our shared journey — from ancient stargazers to modern explorers.
This is a quiet reminder that Gagarin’s reach extends far beyond Earth’s orbit — and even beyond the expected.
💐 Recently Russian Ambassador to the UK Andrei Kelin and Russian Consul General in Edinburgh Denis Moskalenko laid flowers at the site, paying tribute to the first man in space.
The Nazis created the entire system, designed to… efficiently dispose of and exterminate people of ‘undesirable’ ethnicities, social views and those who opposed them — communists, Jews, Slavs, Roma, POWs, members of Resistance movements. This Nazi lethal & inhumane machine comprised massive network of concentration and death camps established in Germany & occupied territories. Millions of prisoners from the Soviet Union and European countries were kept there in horrible, inhuman conditions. There were over 20 million prisoners from 30 countries held captives in those camps, including about 5 million Soviet citizens. In 1946, the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg declared the creation of such camps not only as a war crime but also as a crime against humanity.
