Following the election of Donald Trump, there are multiple calls for change being issued regularly. Yet despite this desire to change the system, it is slightly bemusing to me that quite a few people have no familiarity with anything written about governance prior to the birth of Marx. I...

Jill Stein Sees Russia From Her House
In my previous article on the recount, I attribute some of Jill Stein’s faulty decisions to her advisors from NGO backgrounds. I pointed out how those NGO guns usually bring in a top-down view of organizing. An accurate, but incomplete picture. Credible Green Party members who were directly...

  • Democrats, Republicans -- Dump 'Em All! For a Multiracial Revolution...ary Workers Party! Fear, Loathing and the Primaries The following article is from Workers Vanguard number 1087 for 08 April 2016. Workers Vanguard, my favorite political newspaper, is published in the USA by the Spartacist League/US, US Section of the International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist). I'm a member of no political organization, but I generally endorse the political views of the International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist), the Spartacist League, Workers Vanguard, and their other publications, which I think are closer in spirit and letter to real Marxism than anything else published on planet earth; their writings are very educational and you can learn a lot from reading them. My link also links to other earlier issues of Workers Vanguard, plus to other educational resources.: Democrats, Republicans -- Dump 'Em All! For a Multiracial Revolutionary Workers Party!

  • 05-14-2016: FOR YOUR INFORMATION: JUST POSTED OVER ON MY JOHN BROW...N PROFILE PICTURE ALLAN GREENE FACEBOOK PAGE: 05-14-2016: FOR YOUR INFORMATION: Now 4:22 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. Just informed I'm now "restricted" from posting from this page to more groups-pages to which this page is affiliated through this coming Tuesday, 4:20 p.m. I had up to now been posting the post below on the Near East and Palestinian-Israeli conflict to different pages-groups affiliated to this page of mine. My ability to post the post below to groups-pages affiliated to THIS PARTICULAR Facebook page of mine is NOW EFFECTIVELY BLOCKED through this coming Tuesday, 4:20 p.m., by the corrupt, totalitarian, Facebook ownership and corrupt, totalitarian Facebook management. - Allan Greene, 05-14-2016, now about 4:25 p.m. Eastern Standard Time USA East Coast Time Zone.: "To understand the Near East, including the hell that so much of it has become today, requires at least a basic understanding of the long and bloody history of colonialism and imperialism in the region. The imperialist powers, beginning in particular with France and Britain and for decades now the U.S., have bled the region dry. They have played on every religious and ethnic division in the Near East, exacerbating these conflicts. Above all, imperialism has served to arrest and retard the Near East's economic development and with that its social development, fomenting the growth of nearly every form of reaction throughout the area." --First paragraph of forum presentation of Spartacist League/U.S. Central Committee member Alan Wilde reprinted in current Workers Vanguard 1089 for 6 May 2016. Here, for your information, is the link to the article.: For a Socialist Federation of the Near East! Defend the Palestinian People! The following article is from Workers Vanguard 1089 for 6 May April 2016, published in the USA by the Spartacist League/US (SL/US), US Section of the International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist) (ICL-FI).
