The fireworks have faded. The speeches have ended. Once again, the American ruling class celebrated another Independence Day beneath the familiar banners of liberty, democracy and the "American Dream." Yet beneath the official anniversary lies another America—one that rarely appears in presidential speeches or television retrospectives.

The referendum was hailed as a historic democratic exercise, a choice that would supposedly determine the country's future.

"Keir Starmer is a symptom of Britain’s political crisis, not its cause. His successor must realise that unless Labour ditches Starmer’s toxic cocktail of austerity, economic insecurity and war, the next political crisis will bring a far-right government to power. Starmer’s resignation less than two years after a general election in which Labour won a parliamentary majority of 174 seats, confirms the failure of his authoritarian New Labour tribute act, and the increasing instability of Britain’s ruling class.

No Greek armed forces mission to the Strait of Hormuz
Before the fragile agreement between the US and Iran has even been signed, the government is already rushing to assert its presence by deploying naval vessels to the Strait of Hormuz.

At the center of the debate is a proposal submitted by the Greens in the Berlin state parliament concerning the Soviet war memorials that commemorate the Red Army's decisive role in the defeat of Nazi Germany. The proposal calls for additional measures and forms of "contextualization" regarding the memorials, under the pretext of preventing their alleged political "misuse" in the context of current geopolitical tensions.

"If a man tells you he got rich through hard work, ask him: 'Whose?'"
The old remark by Don Marquis has never been more relevant.

Communism has supposedly been reduced to a relic of the past for more than three decades. Bourgeois politicians, media commentators and professional anti-communists have spent years assuring us that Marxism-Leninism belongs to the past, that socialism was decisively defeated, and that history has already delivered its final verdict.
