Unpacking a World of Myths in " Columbus Discovered America" (4 articles.) (# of views) (Created by keith brooks)
This is part 2 of a 4 part series on Oped News on the 'Columbus Discovered America' myth. Part one dealt with the nature of the world and people Columbus intruded on, debunking the Eurocentric myth that Columbus 'discovered' a land that was barely populated, undeveloped, and an untamed wilderness despite millions of people already living there for thousands of years.Part 2 here debunks the Columbus-as-hero myth by examining how his genocidal attacks on the indigenous populations of the Caribbean led to the opening of the African slave trade, which is covered in part 3 and how and why all this has been justified over the centuries. Part 4 focuses on the indigenous populations of what came to be the United States and attempts to assess how the European conquest of the Americas can be judged.
green new deal (6 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Jack Lindblad)
First Nations Peoples Wisdom considers 'green new deal' as colonizing capitalist opportunismJACK LINDBLAD WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 201817 ReadsTen years ago, the term 'green new deal' was coined by myself in my oped news article. Indigenous First Nations Peoples took exception and expressed contempt for the term, rightfully so, since inferred was an imposition of a new deal with First Nations Peoples supposed inability to shepard their flora and fauna. That point was not considered in my coinage though it is my belief that we must learn from First Nations Peoples if there is a scintilla of hope to avoid #neartermhumanextinction.My coinage was intended to take after FDR's new deal to emphasize the world war ii level of effort needed, ten years ago. Arguably, it's too late now to sustain a resilient civilization in this 6th Great Extinction of all life as we know it.My urging of obama to move on transforming the oil based economy to a circular steady state economy, in a world war ii level effort fell on deaf ears, outside of token lipservice paid immediately prior to leaving office in 2016.Current scientific consensus is too cautious in stating the inexorably coming extinction. It's much sooner than 10 years out.A needed now system change to collectivism, cooperative groupings, and communalism stands in polar opposition to current governance by nazis, simply an advanced state of uber capitalism that brought us to unstoppable extinction and complete destruction of inhabitablity on this planet.Capitalism and its tools of societal conformance and order, being democracy and voting representative governance has failed. Unless we make a system chance and attempt to address #neartermhumanextinction, we will all go, subservient and obedient to the ism that extinguished all life on earrh.Running repeatedly as a registered and endorsed green found no real assistance from the green apparatchik, my 2010 campaign for California assembly ran up to 22% with significant support from Fernando Espueles.It was my realization in 2015 that running national green campaigns was a conscious act of enabling nazism. Four states that tipped the election to drumpf would not have, if greens did not run a presidential candidate as it became obvious nazi drumpf would snag the rethuglicon nomination.System change to collectivism Sorry to say, the capitalist system that we vote and layer over with pretensions of democracy with representative goverance is the ism that led us to #neartermhumanextinction. Nazism, that is uber capitalism, is the nail in the coffin of planetary habitability. A system change is needed for a scintilla of hope. The blue wave, as expansive as it is becoming with every new flip from red to blue, means simply we have only entertained a not yet crystallized glimpse of the enormity of the system change that urgently requires the First Nations Peoples guidance to survive as a species.https://www.facebook.com/notes/jack-lindblad/first-nations-peoples-wisdom-considers-green-new-deal-as-colonizing-capitalist-o/10156786001487118/

US/NATO Imperialism (5 articles.) (# of views) (Created by JACK DRESSER)
'Western' imperialism is directed from on high (the long-established transnational 'deep state') and protected by its military legions is ever active in naked warfare, covert warfare, 'color revolutions' and coup d'etats, economic warfare, propaganda warfare, cyber warfare, corporate predation, resistance suppression, and 'pacification' of target populations including our own by any means necessary. As a retired psychologist, Vietnam-era veteran and national vice-chair of the Veterans for Peace working group on Palestine and the Middle East, I write about this here and elsewhere as well as my weekly radio show at www.kepw.org on Thursdays at 7pm Pacific.

Defeating Trump: Election 2020 (5 articles.) (# of views) (Created by JACK RANDOM)
An ongoing analysis of the presidential election from the debates to the primaries to the conventions to the general election. We begin with 23 Democratic candidates and the process of narrowing the field. At every stage we will recalibrate the analysis. The object is not just to predict the survivors and winners but to guide the electorate to reach an informed decision. That decision should not be guided by the lesser of evils or some foolish notion of electability. The next president will be critical not only to the survival of democracy but also to the survival of the species.
Cui Bono? Who Benefits? (4 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Rob Kall)
Often the best way to understand why things happen, why the system works the way it does, is to see who benefits. Cui Bono is latin for 'to whose benefit?'Wikipedia says, 'It is the key forensic question in legal and police investigation to find who has a motive for a crime.'it works well when looking at politics, corruption, influence, laws, injustice, media and more.

Refuting the Biggest Lies Against Communism (5 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Revolution Newspaper)
Setting the Record Straight on Communism and Socialist Revolutionby Raymond Lotta The revolutions in Paris in 1871, in Russia in 1917 (to mid-1950s), and in China in 1949 (to 1976)--were all great historic breakthroughs. Hundreds of millions rose up and gained precious experience as to what it would take to get to a world without exploitation, without oppression, without destructive violent clashes among humans, without enforced ignorance and superstition. These first attempts to emancipate humanity were defeated. History is being written by the victors--the imperialists. The oppressors issue endless lies on what 'the wretched of the earth' were trying to do, what brutal forces lined up against these heroic attempts, and why there were limitations and even secondary errors in their theory and practice. Bob Avakian (BA) has not only defended these pathbreaking experiences, and shown a way to truly understand them, but most importantly, he has developed a new communism based on a much deeper and more scientific view of what is involved in emancipating ALL humanity. The new communism of BA breaks with and is a leap beyond the previous understanding of communist revolution and represents and embodies a qualitative resolution of a critical contradiction that has existed within communism in its development up to this point, between its fundamentally scientific method and approach, and aspects of communism which have run counter to this.' (From Resolution 1 of Six Resolutions of the Central Committee of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA, January 1, 2016) Along with bringing out the positive achievements of socialism and communist revolutions, and critiquing these previous revolutions through the prism of the new synthesis--how to do better next time around--there is a real need to boldly challenge the flow of lies, slanders, distortions, and phony representations of this history that has lowered sights and shut down discussions over how the world should/could be radically different. The lies serve to reinforce the rotten status quo and its conformist wisdom that the best we can do is adjust or reduce the misery in today's capitalist world order. This series aims to answer the most widespread lies about communist revolution. Raymond Lotta is an advocate for Bob Avakian's new synthesis of communism. He is a political economist and author of America in Decline and You Don't Know What You Think You 'Know' About... The Communist Revolution and the Real Path to Emancipation: Its History and Our Future. He writes for Revolution/revcom.us and is a spokesperson for The Bob Avakian Institute. He has written extensively on China during and after the Cultural Revolution and has, through the 'Set the Record Straight Project,' which he leads, fought to spread the truth--and refute the lies--about the experience of the communist revolution in the Soviet Union between 1917 and 1956 and China between 1949 and 1976.
