UK: Arday – Who Art in Heaven – Hallowed Be Thy Name! (21.8.2026)

I respect Dawn Butler, and have listened to her opinion over the years, but I was forwarded a video of a speech she made at a pro-Arday rally recently, where she firmly mounted the bandwagon and claimed that the act of “unmasking dishonesty” amounted to a “racist attack” – on the grounds that the right supported the exposure. Who cares what the right thinks? It is this kind of flawed logic that permits corruption to become normalised and whistle-blowers to live in fear. If this bourgeois game is all about “equality” – then surely “equality of accountability” is a part of this process? As you can see, the days of a united front between Black and non-Black people has not existed for sometime. Just as long as Black people align themselves with establishmentarian capitalism – then these sociological ruptures are bound to happen. There is no point digging the hole you fall into – and then blaming “Whitey” for inventing the shovel. You are being manipulated by a ruthless class-system. It is designed to make us hate and fight one another. Toughen-up, sort your life out, and get your mind straight.

India: Fascist BJP [Anti-China] Racism Displayed in “Anti-Intellectual” Tome! (13.8.2026)

If this is what these idiots are writing in English – what are they writing in Hindi? These Western “wannaby” Hindu-fascists and Neo-Nazis – about 10% of the Indian population (those that can read and write) – live in gated communities but deceive the illiterate 90% of India into mistakenly thinking that karma is their dharma! No. Being the anti-intellectual lapdog of the US is not a good look (just look at the highly negative attitudes Westerners have to Indian migrants) – but these degenerates are so inverted in their outlook that they are not even aware of just how stupid they look to the rest of the world. Even the ridiculous author of this piece admits (in the last paragraph effectively contradicting his own assertions) – that the Indian Army – (that is the Army of India – his own country) – “denies” any and all allegations he has just made in the body of the article. The reality is that the 90% of illiterate India desperately need a Socialist Revolution to throw-off the yoke of US Imperialism and the utter stupidity of Hindu Nationalism. Meanwhile, the BJP morons better hope and pray that the PLA does not really come over the border and teach the Indians yet another “1962-Style” military lesson once again!

UK: I Once Ran a Half-Marathon over 1 Hr 40 Mins [13.25 Miles] in Hereford During the 1980s – and Neither of My Legs Were Broken! (8.8.2026)

I was born in Oxford (Hitler bombed my mother’s family out of working-class Lewisham in 1940) – and I love the history and “learning” associated with the place (I can walk around with a book about Marx on open display and no one bats an eyelid). I did attend Oxford – but I paid to do so – as I could not attain a place due to my own limitations when I was young. It just so happened that my intellectual abilities matured at the same time when I experienced a decade of wealth. Although Oxford does discriminate, I “paid” to access a “Philosophy of Mind” course – which I passed despite not fitting-in (I was in my late 30s at the time and was surrounded by BBC executives, Guardian Reporters, and UN employees – but my family was proud). However, I was told a story of a young woman who was born into a poor working-class family and brought-up on a housing estate.

The Hula-Hoop was Not New - But the US Tried to Turn into a Fitness Fade!

USSR: Modern Russians Lying About Soviet Russia – It’s the Hula-Hoop All-Over Again! (2.8.2026)

Years later, I learned that at least Republics of the USSR were “Buddhist” and of various ethnicities (including “Tibetan”). More to the point, the 1936 Soviet Constitution guaranteed racial equality for a) everyone born in the USSR, and b) for everyone visiting the USSR. Even today, I am often mistaken for “Russian” of the Soviet-era – as this explains my “Chinese” partner. This often happens in and around the Soviet War Memorial in London. Modern Russian people, at least those in the pay of the US, should stop lying about the glorious past that is the USSR. It was – and still remains – the US (not Russia or the USSR) that is the most racist country on earth. Even their Black President Obama instigated Neo-Nazism in Ukraine – destroying the Slavic people both sides of the divide. I wish young Russians would think about what they are writing – about the false narratives they are buying into. This is why I have carried-out a lot of translation work for the Communist Parties of Lugansk and Donetsk – as that is my ideological doorway into modern Russia. Of course, I am not Russian – and do not pretend to be. I am a Sinotised Celt – and that’s about it. I value historical truth other disinformation. The world could learn much under a USSR under Lenin and Stalin. After-all, 41 million Soviets were killed and wounded assisting the UK as allies during WWII.

Kampuchea: The Narrative the US Does Not Want You To Know! (16.7.2026)

Given that the PLA had defeated the US in Korea – surely China could have defended its ancient ally of Khmer without too much difficulty? Deng Xiaoping wanted to “open-up” and make money rather than pursue or protect the old order. As a consequence, very little genuine research is carried-out in this area as China simply ignores it – and the US is quite happy to associate Socialism with mass killing – a fabrication the capitalists have perpetuated for decades (virtually no one died during the Russian Revolution – but between 1918-1921 the collective West during its invasion killed 10.5 million Soviet Russians). The US (and the West) are the mass killers – and it is their habitual crimes that they like to protect upon their ideological enemies. Ironically, since betraying Ho Chi Minh’s vision of a “New Vietnam” – that country has struggled – particularly after the fall of the USSR in 1991, being as it is estranged from China. Only very recently has Vietnam approached China for a far more profound and deep economic relationship. Cambodia is merely left to rot – with its pointless monarchy and capitalist system. Indeed, whereas Polpot declared all women and gorls equal to men – Cambodia is today the world centre for filming paedophiia and trafficking children. Of course, there are no Hollywood films about this, and no catchy soundtracks – as that would be telling the truth and not peddling mindless entertainment.

Israel: ‘We Were Ordered to Kill’: The 1967 Nakba That Israelis Don’t Know About! (16.6.2026)

The expulsion of the three Palestinian villages in the Latrun area – Imwas, Bayt Nuba, and Yalo – with their 8,000 residents, was one of the most prominent expulsions during the war. So too was the destruction of the villages immediately afterward and the establishment of Canada Park by the Jewish National Fund in 1971.

The villages were captured without resistance on the second day of the war, and hours later, residents were ordered to evacuate to Ramallah. Israel claimed that a significant portion of the structures in the villages were destroyed during the battles that took place there. This was a false claim.

Ze’ev Bloch, a Six-Day War veteran and a former member of Kibbutz Nahshon, located near the three expelled villages, told Akevot Institute researchers that “no one leaves their home willingly. There’s no debate about that. Certainly, certainly they were expelled. War. There are those who expel them, there are those who leave, there are those who survive, and there are those who die.”
