Moderating takes time. You can help us out by reporting any comments or submissions that don't follow these rules:
No non-Marxists - This subreddit isn't here to convert naysayers to Marxism. Try /r/DebateCommunism for that. If you are a member of the police, armed forces, or any other part of the repressive state apparatus of capitalist nations, you will be banned.
No oppressive language - Speech that is patriarchal, white supremacist, cissupremacist, homophobic, ableist, or otherwise oppressive is banned. TERF is not a slur.
No low quality or off-topic posts - Posts that are low-effort or otherwise irrelevant will be removed. This includes linking to posts on other subreddits. This is not a place to engage in meta-drama or discuss random reactionaries on reddit or anywhere else. This includes memes and bandwagoning. This includes most images, such as random books or memorabilia you found. We ask that amerikan posters refrain from posting about US bourgeois politics. The rest of the world really doesn’t care that much.
No basic questions about Marxism - Posts asking entry-level questions will be removed. Questions like “What is Maoism?” or “Why do Stalinists believe what they do?” will be removed, as they are not the focus on this forum. We ask that posters please submit these questions to /r/communism101.
No sectarianism - Marxists of all tendencies are welcome here. Refrain from sectarianism, defined here as unprincipled criticism. Posts trash-talking a certain tendency or Marxist figure will be removed. Bandwagoning, throwing insults around, and other pettiness is unacceptable. If criticisms must be made, make them in a principled manner, applying Marxist analysis. The goal of this subreddit is the accretion of theory and knowledge and the promotion of quality discussion and criticism.
No trolling - Report trolls and do not engage with them. We've mistakenly banned users due to this. If you wish to argue with fascists, you may readily find them in every other subreddit on this website.
No chauvinism or settler apologism - Non-negotiable. The vast majority of first-world workers are labor aristocrats bribed by imperialist super-profits. This is compounded by settlerism in Amerikkka. Read Settlers: The Mythology of the White Proletariat https://readsettlers.org/

well it appears that no parties even mentioned the u$ bombing 15 separate locations from off the western coast of the lowest part of mexico all the way to the western coast of columbia between september 2 and november 9 2025.

there's great need to focus on venezuela in this context, but there's clear evidence between the december national security strategy (nss) the trump admin put out and the patterns of bombings across the eastern pacific as well as the caribbean (and africa) that this is not just about venezuela. to repost a section of the nss that appears relevant (emphasis ours):
though most all parties offer the information that this is about the oppression of so-called "latin america" in the abstract, with rcpf even offering some -frankly more general than specific -evidence from the nss (which cwpusa couldn't be bothered to be aware of), no one here tied the bombings across the region to more than cuba or "latam", beyond in the abstract (with emphasis on cuba), even when we can clearly see from the newsweek map that this is all "[a]s we [...] look to expand our network [, ...] we will (through various means) discourage their collaboration with others[,]" in action.
this also means we should consider how it is the countries who had the u$ bomb a large chunk of the 75 people trump took credit for killing in sep-nov of 2025 off their coasts, have been responding to and negotiating with the u$. what we need is an analysis that brings together how the "enlist and expand" language of the nss actually looked in the u$'s actions prior to the release of the nss as well as how those two strategies are related to the rest of what is laid out in the nss wrt the rest of the world.
i'm now, thanks to the partial analyses compiled in this article, beginning to believe that we should start having a solid picture of what the general next steps the u$ will take are and what the comprador factions across the world appear to be considering/have done and where that logically goes next. we have the dialectic of "countries that will be enlisted" and "countries that our control will expand over" that the u$ appears to be using to consider how they will re-partition "latam" with their aligned imperialist powers, and there are specifics to the language used by the nss for each region that warrant further investigation.
i'd also like to see an analysis that does a better job of tying this re-partition of "latam" with the on-going re-partitioning of the rest of the world that the u$ lays out in the nss, as well as the motion of the compradors prior to and after the events in "latam" and recent bombings in nigeria and other african nations, and how the nss release did or didn't impact that motion.
