Western POWs Were Also Victims of Japanese Imperialism!

China: Lurch to Right Paints Japan as “Victim” of WWII! (17.8.2025)

Earlier this month, Hiroshima and Nagasaki held their annual atomic bombing commemorations. From Ishiba to local officials and citizens, speeches focused overwhelmingly on Japan’s suffering under nuclear attack, with little mention of Japan’s wartime aggression abroad. In Nagasaki, residents interviewed stressed the horrors of the bombings but rarely acknowledged Japan’s role as an aggressor.

The emphasis has shifted public perception. An NHK poll found only 35 percent of Japanese now see the war as one of aggression, compared with 52 percent in a 1994 survey.

In contrast, 67 percent of respondents said they “still cannot forgive” the atomic bombings, up 18 percentage points from a decade ago.

China: Welfare System Pays for Uyghur Educational Trip! (5.8.2025)

She stood on tiptoe, her gaze piercing through the crowd as she watched the slowly rising China’s national flag. Tears of excitement streamed down her cheeks. After more than 4,000 kilometres of travel from a small town near the Taklimakan Desert to Tian’anmen Square in the capital of China, the young girl witnessed the solemn scene described in her textbooks for the first time of her life.

Trump Deploys National Guard tin Support of Racism!

US: “shame on you” – Trump’s LA National Guard Deployment “Violates” States’ Rights! (9.5.2025)

Protesters at the scene also chanted “shame on you” at National Guard soldiers who created a perimeter around the federal building. Meanwhile, many locations have been taken over by more and more demonstrators and a main freeway running through the city has been blocked.

Shortly after the clash, California Governor Gavin Newsom urged protesters to remain peaceful.

“California — Don’t give Donald Trump what he wants. Speak up. Stay peaceful. Stay calm,” Newsom wrote in an online post. “Do not use violence and respect the law enforcement officers that are trying their best to keep the peace.”

National Guard troops sent by the Trump administration arrived in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday morning, according to the U.S. Northern Command. The 79th Infantry Brigade Combat Team from the California National Guard deployed approximately 300 soldiers to three separate locations in the greater Los Angeles area.

Dubious Examples of "Christianity"!

St Albans: Consciousness Does Not Exist – and Dubious Examples of “Christianity”! (4.4.2025)

The Church suppresses and disempowers the working class in every narrative it constructs. The Workers are viewed as the scum of the earth by the middle class that runs most of the UK’s institutions. The Church today remains silent as the capitalist countries it’s supports brings the world once again to the brink of war. The Church is the devil incarnate which expresses itself through the self-serving literature it’s conspired to print and circulate. The Church calls this lie “freedom of expression”. Of course, it is only freedom of its own expression. Perhaps the biggest joke is that those without theological degrees are considered “unqualified” to see all this! Oh dear, no working 90 minutes a-week (on Sunday morning if the CofE priest can muster a congregation) with a free house and income tax exemption for me, then! Abolish this subterfuge – and the Workers will be one level nearer freedom.

Ebony and Ivory!

An Ovis Aries Revolution! – My Contribution to “Unherd” – I Doubt It Will Be Printed! (31.1.2025)

Sheep are very sensitive animals. This includes goats and rams – not always the same thing. Under Labour, the manner in which sheep congregate together has subtly shifted. In the average flock today, the shepherds will tell you that their is a profound sense of fear seven-days a week – and not just on Market-Day – or when the “special” lorry arrives. The texture of the wool has diminished in quality – as has the production of milk and meat. As you know, sheep-milk is used to make a myriad of alternative dairy products – including niche cheese and yoghurt. Yes – such products cost a little more – but this reflects the greater extent of labour required to manufacture these products.

Ex-Labour Leader Arrested!

UK: Jeremy Corbyn “Interviewed Under Caution” for Israeli “Anti-Genocide” Protest! (20.1.2025)

The BBC and Sky News both colluded with the (unelected) British Establishment and Israel (which interfered in the internal functioning of the UK political system) to keep Corbyn out of political power because he wanted to a) recognise Palestine and b) return the NHS to the principle of “care” over “cost” (restoring the “Socialist” principle behind it – that Thatcher took away). Although Corbyn is a Trotskyite who has made numerous (false) anti-China statements – for many leftists, the restoration of the NHS was good enough to support Corbyn. The right-wing Labour Government today has not (and will not) reverse one single Tory cut or policy! Starmer’s idea for saving a collapsing (privatising) NHS – is more privatisation! The damage done by US and EU-demanded cuts to the Socialist NHS – is more cuts! What we are seeing below – is the consequence of a dictate issued by 10 Downing Street! The right-wing of the Labour Party wants to permanently “separate” from its traditional left-wing component (and then reform the left out of existence). The antics of Jeremy Corbyn (who had his fellow Trotskyite – George Galloway – “banned” from an earlier Pro-Palestinian march) is a damaging reminder for Starmer of what the Labour Party used to be! Although I quote the BBC and Sky News below – remember these bourgeois entities revel in the demise of the left and are thoroughly right-wing in nature!
