We're seeing India regularly control a significant portion of the * whole world's labour* in general strikes; This is all while under a brutally militaristic and fascistic regime.

China is emerging as the leading international power, which even if we accept China as "not socialist" (a fair argument imo), this shift in global power is necessary to defeating US hegemony and in turn challenging the ingrained neoliberal idea that is the 'end of history'.

The entrenched imperial order is toppling and that is at least the first step in many to make shitposting centres like this obsolete.

    It is easier to imagine the end of the world than to imagine the end of the anglosphere.

    The failed coup against Venezuela and return of MAS in Bolivia are hopefully signs that the foreign influence of the USA is diminishing, and the BLM protests are a sign that the internal divisions are putting a strain on the state. And there's plenty of hotbeds for unrest in Europe, with a potential break up of the UK, nationalist sentiment in Catalonia, liberals, fascists and leftists clashing in Eastern Europe, the constant unrest in southern europe and the balkans etc. That, paired with the failure of western countries to handle covid and the oncoming recession, should show that nothing is set in stone. This next decade will be a lot more hectic than the last, and we have an opportunity to get involved. History didn't end when the soviet union fell, as much as neoliberals want to believe
