A Theravada Buddhist Monk in the Ruins of “Wat Phu (ວັດພູ)”!

Buddhist-Socialist Laos: “Wat Phu (ວັດພູ)” – An Example of a Khmer-Era Buddhist-Hindu Temple! (6.8.2026)

The stone walls are carved with mythological scenes such as (the Hindu) Hanuman monkey-god fighting demons and Gisna tearing apart the Dragon King. Inside the hall are numerous Buddha statues and a stone statue of King Phayakamata of Champasak. The site area preserves the foundations of two stone palaces, scattered stone figures and beasts, and a sacred lake measuring 300 metres by 200 metres. The lakeside pavilion in the centre connects with the ruins of the Western Hall. The temple is said to have been built in the 7th century, with most existing ruins dating back to the 10th-century – during the peak period of the Khmer Empire. Every year from late January to early February, the Wat Phu Festival is held, featuring various religious ceremonies and activities.

Joseph Stalin 1935 Painting

USSR: 1953 Soviet Painting Commemorating a [1935] Speech by Joseph Stalin – Renovated After a 14-Year Effort in Russia! (6.8.2026)

I have translated this (2024) article as it is succinct and to the point. However, there are articles today (2026) discussing how this picture is now on display in Moscow again. This picture is huge and I have conveyed its size in the picture above. Joseph Stalin was perhaps the greatest working class leader whoever lived. He built the USSR – and protected it from Trotsky – after the 1924 death of Lenin. He initiated the 1936 Constitution of the USSR. He took on and beat Adolf Hitler – saving the world from fascism. He steered the USSR through the war years – and inspired the Soviet Space Effort. Following his 1953 death – he was betrayed by Khrushchev (and his followers) – who laid the foundations for Gorbachev and the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union. Even today, there are brain-washed Russians who believe the lies of the US – and see Joseph Stalin as a “Tyrant” – despite the fact that he was continuously “elected” into office – with the people refusing to allow him to retire. He literally died in office because the Soviet people demanded it.

China: What the West’s “Assimilation Accusations” Reveal About its Own Historical Burdens! (6.8.2026)

This policy was pursued by forcibly removing children from their families and placing them in foster homes, adoptive families, and correctional institutions through the “Kinder der Landstrasse” (Children of the Open Road) Project. Much of this barbarism was premised on the very “Eugenics” thinking that inspired Adolf Hitler – with Swiss policies before, during, and after WWII “mirroring” those of Nazi Germany. The “Yenish”, of course, are also referred to as “Gypsies” in other countries (they comprise one tribe of Romani people living in Switzerland). Even after WWII, the Swiss government continued to forcibly “Sterilise” Gypsy women of ALL tribes living in Switzerland – with the intention of “ethnically cleansing” this group from Swiss territory. During WWII, the Swiss government actively deported its own Gypsy population to Nazi German Concentration Camps – where they were exterminated en masse. Therefore, “Fan Yichou” – the Associate Professor at the Law School of Minzu University of China (quoted at length in the below article) – needs to carrying-out further research if he mistakenly thinks “Switzerland” offers a viable option to State-building in the West. Yes – there is a type of “Pluralism” in effect as seen in the “Canton” model operating in Switzerland, but this is achieved through a strict separation of the “races”. Throughout much of its contemporary history, Switzerland accrued wealth at the expense of other ethnic groups being displaced or exterminated, and sought to maintain its “Pluralist” racial purity by removing the ability of certain groups from reproducing. This situation might demonstrate how difficult it can be to shine a light into a different culture and interpret what is going on correctly. Switzerland, of course, provides the “Swiss Guard” for the Vatican. If that does not set alarm bells ringing – nothing will!

PRC Applies Sanctions Against Racist US Entities!

China: Counter-Measures [Sanctions] Announced Against Six US Entities! (6.8.2026)

These countermeasures, which took effect on Wednesday, were adopted in response to the United States’ sanctions against Chinese companies under the pretext of so-called “forced labour,” according to the ministry.

The U.S. move seriously violates international law and the basic norms of international relations, and gravely undermines China’s sovereignty, security and development interests, the ministry said.

The six U.S. entities subject to the countermeasures are Applied DNA Sciences, Inc., Stratum Reservoir, LLC., Altana Technologies, Inc., Responsible Business Alliance, Verite Group, Inc., and Human Rights in China. They assisted and supported the United States’ unlawful Xinjiang-related sanctions, the ministry said in a statement.

South Korea: Chinese Embassy Refutes Claims Targeting Chinese Tourists as Casino Growth Engine! (5.8.2026)

Those who have nothing are encouraged to waste what little they have – so that “one” individual can be hideously enriched for no reason at all other than blind circumstance. The US, via its colonies of Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, encourage capitalistic Chinese people online to encourage gambling and the selling of sex. Selling sex often involves naïve teenage girls exposing their bodies on US social media – receiving thousands of dollars donated by White US males. As the donated amounts increase – the antics of the girls increase – until full-blown pornographic acts are performed. This is all in the name of the capitalistic practice of encouraging hyper-individuality – the essence of capitalist selfishness. The US believes that this bourgeois decadence will eventually penetrate the hinterland of the PRC and cause the CPC to collapse from within – but as you can see – this behaviour is entirely “illegal” within Socialist China – which is collectivist and provides everything each citizen requires to positively live their lives.

A joint statement from Trans+ Solidarity Alliance, Scottish Trans, and TransActual.

UK: Joint Statement – Trans+ Solidarity Alliance, Scottish Trans, & TransActual – EHRC’s Code of Practice Comes into Effect! (5.8.2026)

However, we decided to just turn-up at the UNITE double-decker bus (I was a member of that union at the time) – and see if we could blag our way through – and blag we did. If we had not taken direct action – Gee is very gay-friendly and the crowd took to her – we would not have been able to attend. I think the fact we are mixed-race couple acted as camouflaged for our presence (everyone thought someone had okayed it previously). As a straight couple – we were not permitted on the bus by the lesbians who occupied and controlled it. At one point, I was kissed by a gay Asian man – which was not traumatising to me at all. He asked Gee’s permission first. Later, as a straight, mixed couple, with mixed kids, the gay and trans people that sat in and around London landmarks with us – looked at us with such love that I cannot deny the experience. I am not telling you how to think – indeed – I would advise thinking for yourself by reading all the evidence and weighing things-up. As workers living in a capitalist society – we are already oppressed. Granting (or withholding) access to toilets will not change that – even if it might be seen as “progressive” and a “movement in the right direction”. A genuine Red Army soldier fights to defeat capitalism and fascism for ALL people – not just those the bourgeoise establishment decide are acceptable or persona non grata.
