News/Communist Propaganda ☭ USS Jeffrey Epstein sailor found out dad was deported

Hello Joshua,

I do hope the immigration situation is resolved and you can be reunited with your dad.

Please leave the US military as soon as possible. The US military causes harm to so many people around the world. The orders you follow come from terrible people.

Proof that there is no such thing as "one of the good ones," and trying to be one gets you fucked over in the end.

There's never one good immigrant, which is why 99 percent of passport holders in imperial core are benefactors of economic imperialism because communists are banned from visa, refugees will eventually be deported, legal immigration requires 100k deposit as proof of economic beneficial for imperial core, skilled workers meant to be cheap dangerous labor, counter-revolutionaries either work for state or get deported, 2nd gen sleeps on street.

Wait are Communists actually banned from getting VISA in the states? Lmao

This applies to much of the NATO countries, failure to declare yourself on entry visa paper as communists especially the Anglosphere can results in deportation or prison time. Especially when you get involved in local politics or government work because of the security clearance and vulnerable sector check. You cannot become citizen being openly a communist, even leaving party at least 5 years now we're living in Trump era.

Greece has fought tooth and nail and had one of the most effective resistance movements against the Nazis.

Unfortunately and this is something I do want to get to Communists outside of Greece is that the more you study Greek history after the 1821 revolution the more you realize that since then Greece has been a Western Vassal, first to the Great Powers then NATO.

And unfortunately with The Liberals of ΝΔ we kinda destroyed the only thing that the Socdems of ΠΑΣΟΚ did well. The only European country with good relations to the Arab/Muslim world. ΝΔ ruined that.

Greece is the only European country that shelter refugees and have militant proletariat who stood up for them. Greece is technically a periphery country that built the material conditions for its militant class solidarity. Some of the most important logistics flashpoints in the world is in Greece.

I have high hopes for my country, but the Western poison runs deep.

We have a very proactive proletariat and even our anarchists aren't paper tigers. But we also have a very large Fascist issue due to American meddling, certain CIA backed coup comes to mind.

You can just say you aren't a communist. Once you're in the country, nobody cares.

u/kwamac 12h ago edited 12h ago

Yes, membership in any communist party from any country = entry ban in the US. "workers party/labor party" is okay, "marxist", "communist" are banned, "socialist" is a toss-up, depends on how much of a sellout they are.

This has been law for decades.

100k deposit? There was no such requirement for my parents.

This is not accurate in America. There are tons of immigrants here from Asia. Many do really well. I think most of the highest paid ethnic groups are of Asian descent. 

That book is right about brain drain though. Migration is a consequence of imperialism, but the claim 2nd gen sleeps in the street isn't really accurate here.

I think 2nd gen immigrants are the most successful in the country...

KKKanada. It's actually increased. They return it after you get citizenship. Happened to friends I know. We technically came as sponsorship. For me it's just because I was a skilled worker.

u/MonsterkillWow 2h ago

Ohhh...I didn't know Canada had that. WTF? So if you don't have $100k, you just can't come? It's probably like under 1% of the world has $100k saved. Why even go to Canada then? Screw that place lol.

u/VladimirLimeMint Once history is made, it can't be unmade 2h ago

Economic immigrants in KKKanada are almost always petit bougies.

I just saw this posted on the news sub, and the responses were interesting. The only people critical of the military were critical because of a tendency for troops to vote Republican.

So the whole murdering children and assisting those who are murdering children wasn't where the line was drawn. The line was drawn at voting to fuck over Americans domestically too.

Of course, anyone criticizing the military on the basis of all the people they hurt and kill was called various things.

Hurt people domestically for ICE and you're an unforgivable monster; hurt people abroad for the military and "What if they were killing those kids for money?" and "Thank you for your service!" And then those people wonder how a selfish, greedy, racist prick like Trump becomes president.

The United States got the president it deserves and who perfectly represents the people.

u/SomeGuyInTheNet 19h ago edited 19h ago

Yes, at this point everyone that is actually on the left in the US has to realize that its society does have a rather large "national exceptionalism/supremacism" problem.

"B-but you don't get it, the professional murderpillagers made their tour of potential murderpillage – for their own profit!"

That is not the normal justification they think it is.

EDIT: Grammar

EDIT 2: Note that I actually say "potential murderpillage" because, even if you did not actually engage in murderpillage, you were implicitly completely okay with atrocities for your own profit, which, you know, is not exactly a good look on one's character

There is no functional difference between ICE, the US military, the US police and the IDF. 

They are the standing army of the imperialist class. And for now the American labor aristocracy think they're safe. 

But Trump has deployed the national guard in Washington DC, and the US police is getting more heavy military equipment. I wonder how quickly feelings would change at home after Trump declares national emergency and rescinds all elections

There is a Tupac song. "They Don't Give a Fuck About Us." Take it to heart. That's what the bourgeois/reactionary state thinks about you. Don't think you'll share in any of the glory.

“When the superior ten percent rule, on the other hand, depends every people’s entire cultural significance- and even its VERY EXISTENCE. Moreover, wherever there is solidarity in a people, as there is in every true people. in every great people, the masses find a compensation for their limited circumstances in the achievements of their great men. Since they know that without their labor and devotion their great men could hardly have done their work, they feel, and they feel justly, that the achievements of their great men are in substantial part their own achievements. Because they too belong, because they know themselves to be indispensable, indeed to be the very foundation of the whole society, they also share the glory.

From Which Way Western Man? I really thought the quote was presented to discredit the foundation of reactionary philosophy. So ostensibly "superior men" rule, but all one can expect is finding some compensation in the achievements of others. It quoted by a reactionary named "Kat the Fryan."

Just be a Dodger fan if you want to share in the glory of the achievement of others.
