Battersea Park: Revolutionary Flags! (27.5.2023)

Buddhism – like Socialism – belongs to humanity! Violence in the outer world can only be ended when one dominant class stops oppressing another! Peace can only be achieved if the capitalist world (in its exploitative aspect) is vanquished and the Bourgeoisie stops resisting and oppressing Socialism! If we – as the working class – stop fighting then we abandon the field to our oppressors and encourage them to inflict an even greater injustice upon us! Genuine peace will only come when the working class siezes the mean of production! As Marx once said – peace is the state achieved when there is an absence to the process of developing Socialism! These photographs were taken at the (Japanese) Buddhist London Peace Pagoda which is situated to the North of Battersea Park!

US (1981): When the Vietnam War was Fought in Texas! (20.5.2023)

In 1981, the Vietnamese Boat People who had arrived at the waters of Galveston Bay – were granted the legal right to be there – and to make a living by fishing in the area. Most Vietnamese people were shocked by the level of race-hate aimed at them by the average ‘White’ (and ‘Black’) American person! Where was this ‘accepting’ and ‘forgiving’ country that the ‘White’ Christian Missionaries had described whilst teaching that Vietnamese culture and religious practices were ‘inferior’ – and that a ‘land of plenty and mutual support’ awaited them in the West! The Vietnamese who had fallen for these lies soon found to their peril that ‘White’ America had every intention of staying ‘White’ by resisting, preventing and expelling ALL non-White immigration!

Beef (S1-E3) – I Am Inhabited by a Cry! (13.4.2023) 

Ali Wong might want to consider that this might be ‘why’ birds – (along with every other living creature) were destroyed by the fascistic Americans! I suspect that this line was inserted into the Asian based US comedy drama ‘Beef’ to appeal to the White Americans who have allowed this programme to be made! The programme itself is racist in that it strives to justify and normalise US neo-imperialism by perpetuating the idea that Asians must conform to White racist standards of behaviour whilst actively supporting the US colonies of Taiwan, South Korea and Japan! This includes the destruction of Asian culture and the replacement of Asian religions with right-wing, Protestant Christianity! Asians can only be included in US TV dramas if they refuse to support the independent countries of the land of their ancestors! Long live North Korea, Socialist Vietnam and Communist China!

Philippines: Why the Vatican Ordered Attacks on The Beatles! (7.4.2023) 

In many ways this story of The Beatles exemplifies the era (and contradictions) inherent in the 1960s! There were definitely Revolutionary (dialectical) forces in operation not just in the West – but throughout the world! Paul McCartney would pen a song entitled ‘Back in the USSR’ (about a Cold War Soviet spy returning from service in the US – where he understood just how ‘bad’ life is for the average person living under capitalism) and John Lennon would write a song entitled ‘Revolution’ – and record at least 18 versions of it within which he ‘might’ or ‘might not’ support a violent ‘Revolution’ depending upon how he felt on the day!
