Not panicking just yet but I’d be sad to see it disappear!

It’s not a textbook, if that’s what you mean.

Open it, ctrl+f your search terms.

If it’s not what you’re after, I may have other suggestions but it depends on what you’re after/why Imperialism isn’t helpful.

E.g. are you just after an account of corporate forms? An intro into companies? An explanation of how companies extract wealth from workers? Or how northern companies extract wealth from the global south? A history of the development of companies? A discussion of the role of companies in colonialism? An analysis of the relationship between companies and the state? Info on the role of the state in setting roles on stocks/shares purchases and transfers?

I’d say the bulk of Marxist texts cover private companies in some way. What is it exactly that you want to know?

Have you read Imperialism by Lenin?

That’s the thing, Russia cannot de-escalate unilaterally. De-escalation requires both sides to want it. We know that neither NATO nor the current Ukrainian leadership want peace. They want everything else, no matter how unrealistic or unreasonable but they don’t want peace. That doesn’t give Russia much room. It’s options are to capitulate or continue matching the escalatory moves.

Could you be more specific?

People say that Keir Starmer is ‘low-level cringe’. They don’t get it.

With my government, the perpetrators creating havoc won’t be able to get away with it anymore.

Is this the same man who just bombed Russia after Russia said if you bomb us we’ll hit you back? Deeply unserious.

Tfw you join the masons to find out what it’s all about and you find out that every other member joined for the same reason, except Melvin, who turns up to every meeting complaining about the good old days.

For that reason, if Putin had sneezed after the atacms launch, it would have been called an escalation.

Part of the circuitry is made of blue cheese. Lasts for ages but it does go off eventually.

Tbf we have been predicting that the empire might rather see the world burn than admit defeat. I kinda hoped it was a joke.

Russia escalated?

If not, it should be

the only way to bring about an end to the war

Sure, if you want yet another war to end all wars. When the dust clears, future generations will never forgive us for what we’re leaving them.

I like to see it like Rome. It’s the same Anglo European empire but the seat of power moved. Britain is now semi-provincial but it’s very much part of an empire. All those lords and ladies who moved to North America and rebranded as bourgeois haven’t forgotten who is in the family, and vice versa.

Spiteden

Scorched earth, scorched earth, everywhere

They’re reaching across the aisle

between the White House and hell.

And I’m supposed to believe Trump is some kind of uniquely evil threat to democracy? I really hope it doesn’t happen but he’s going to have to commit some seriously heinous atrocities just to catch up with 3½ years of Biden. This and firing long range missiles into Russia are death throes. Somebody please take decision making powers away from the Dems.

Did they poll in the east or have even the pollsters given up with the idea that the east is still Ukraine?

How should they be spelled, out of interest?
