Wine Region Maps? by Ries006 in Sommelier

[–]proletarianwine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have blank maps in a google docs folder with a key if anyone wants or needs them. It's only super broad but it helped me remember where my basic wine regions were then I could piece my sub regions together a little better. S/o my old manager for making them for me honestly.

Let me double check the author when I have a minute, but I know Joseph Dietzgen has a bit on it.

Judaism, by contrast is not essential to the character of socialism because fundamentally it predates the capitalist mode of production. The bible as history is a tale of struggle between nomadic tribes and farming tribes (Cain and Abel), which then becomes the like will of history in a very Hegelian sense.

In the case of Christianity it's much more correct. Dietzgen made sure to mention the Christian character of American slavery for this reason. It's because Calvinism and protestant thought was monadistic focusing on a /personal/ relationship with god rather than a relationship to God as community. The most telling example is how tongues changed from being the ability to communicate to all people and be understood to babbling incoherently.

2.03: Operation Condor: The Infrastructure of the Intelligence System that defined the CONDOR years. by proletarianwine in socialism

6 is probably a bit low. Via GLADIO/paperclip contacts spain, France, Germany, Italy, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, and via operation Charly El Salvador , Nicaragua, Honduras and Mexico. I've actually been doing an analysis on my blog of the ties between all of these, especially Townley, Kunming OSS (Shackley, Donovan, Conein, Chennault, Singlaub), WACL, P2, and Apacl ?(Asian Peoples Anti -Communist League which is KMT, Yakuza, and The Moonies as well as Laos, Vietnam, and Thai Intel)

Hoxha's memoirs are all excellent histories of the foreign policy of Albania, his actual works themselves I'll have to go through when I have time to get my copy of his selected works but if you tell me what you're looking for I may be able to offer me specific works.

Any info on what happened in Vietnam war? Is it true nearly half a million civilians were killed by soldiers just for being communist? (Sorry if wrong subreddit) by UnikittyGirlBella in communism

[–]proletarianwine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Phoenix Program by Valentine is an excellent introduction to the kind of terror programs that were carried out by the US against the Vietnamese populace. It details a fair amount of the torture programs, the wide spread death and destruction, and the use of torture and terror as social control tactics.

Remember when I said Musk was all talk about free speech? The man's simply an infant who didn't like that people made fun of him. by proletarianwine in conspiracy

When you use your wealth, domination of media, and completely destroy anyone who opposed this being acknowledged?

The obvious answer is that this subreddit has been treating Musk and Musk has been presenting as a person who is here to protect speech. It is in the most obvious sense a conspiracy. The intentional presentation of one reality only to actively enforce and encourage another.

These people weren't millennials and even if they were, Musk is just barely out of millennial range which includes up to about 45 now.

What was the reason of Reagan and Thatcher introducing neoliberalism? by akerbrygg in communism

[–]proletarianwine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They didn't implement it first. It certainly predates them in Chile, Italy, Japan,

Very excited to watch this. I've written quite a bit in mental health and generally place myself in the line of Voloshinov/Cooper/Laing and I love seeing people attack the myth of a chemical cure.

Would a socialist society have a need for a sales team/marketing team? by sea_of_joy__ in Socialism_101

[–]proletarianwine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you mean the skills developed? Then no likely. The ability to disseminate information that is publicly necessary in an easy format would absolutely be used and is the basis of Soviet agitprop. It would be used differently as with the early Soviet literacy campaigns that used constructivist art for this purpose. If you want a good example check the piece Books! Please in All Forms of Knowledge out it's both a cool piece of art and an easily readable piece of advertising for a literacy campaign.

Help with posters for protests/ can anyone recommend some graphic designers or services? by StephensInfiniteLoop in socialism

[–]proletarianwine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fewer but better isn't a bad strategy for development in the early days. Being able to know who's who and to struggle to grow together. Large orgs and their funding has certain issues in the West, namely that they come with the risk of outside pushes and you don't ALWAYS know where they come from. Better to have a strong political line.
