I sometimes regret not having bought a Lenin matroushka doll I saw featured in the window at an Ukrainian shop. I bought a regular one for a present (beautiful, hand painted, natural wood ones), but now I think the Lenin matroushka would have been a really cool one to have.
RIP I'm in a small town in Tennessee. I wanna get in touch with my neighbors, but it feels like if they knew my political beliefs, they'd blow my head off
Excellent episode, with bonus points to Hakim for his section. Love the episodes with just you three, although the episodes with other guests are also often great.
Just an idea; you guys mention cool art that the community makes at the end of the podcast. Might be cool to see some of those shown on screen (with permission and credit of course) during the outro, to share with the people who might not be in the discord
thank you for mentioning this - I've been looking for economics-specific content for a long time but it's so hard to find any that aren't / neoliberal pilled / or wtfever
As a Romanian Marxist, I did not expect to get called out this early! 😂 Tbf linguistically Romanian is a massive hodge-podge (we even have Arab and Persian loanwords mostly imported through the years of Ottoman dominance, but some of the Persian ones go all the way back to the Iranic Scythian nomads who roamed the southern and eastern Romanian steppes 2500 years ago), but the vocabulary is about 70% of Latin origin and only about 15 to 18% of Slavic origin. Furthermore, Romanian is actually the only major romance language that kept sone Latin grammatical features, such as the existence of a neutral grammatical gender and several others, make of that what you will. (are we more roman than the Italians? Are we Eastern Scythian "hordes"? Both??? 😂) That said, culturally Romania is definitely Balkan, and comrade Hakim is 100% spot on - hell, I was personally gifted an ancestry DNA test and I'm apparently 30 to 32% Eastern Slavic (so Russian, Bielorussian or Ukrainian) and also 1% Greek, 1% North Indian 🤣 (this would get Romanian racist bigots to disown me even though I'm white af) and 3% German. Of course there has been Balkanic and Eastern Slavic admixture, as well as far more significant I would argue cultural influence from all over the Balkans and in general the Christian orthodox world. Anyway, even though neither Romania, Hungary nor Albania are linguistically slavic, they're all still definitely integral parts of the Eastern European cultural milieu, and Romania and Hungary especially are a bit of bridge between the proper Balkans and more northern Eastern Europe. We're not "special" in any way except that the proto-Romanian space got oppressed by so many empires since the dawn of time, (starting with Scythian horse nomads, then Romans, then Byzantines, eventually Hungarians, Mongols, Ottomans and several others) that they all left a genetic and linguistic "footprint" on Romania, which you'd think would make a lot of Romanians who study our history ultimate anti-imperialists, but instead we get anti-vaxxer homophobic pro-fascistic nationalists like Calin Georgescu... 🤦♂️ Tbf Romania doesn't have as bad of a far right problem as Poland, Ukraine or Hungary, but we don't really have a political left either, (not even a social democratic center-left, as PSD are just corrupt opportunistic centrists) so there isn't much of a grassroots opposition to Georgescu's ilk. (hopefully that idiot doesn't get elected, but unfortunately there isn't much revolutionary potential in this country)

The tariffs makes strategic sense if you want to actually boost the local manufacturing and can source all the materials domestically as well. There might a be goal to prepare for war with near-peer countries and get the manufacturing back to the country in preparation of that or just because they realised they can't just be a services-only economy.
except they've absolutely put the cart before the horse, in true american fashion. the tariff package just cores out the economy without the requisite industrial capacity to actually participate in something more than just shuffling numbers around, the US already divested itself of all of that and rebuilding that would take decades as well as essentially neuter the US technologically, considering every piece of high-tech equipment comes from elsewhere and requires inputs from elsewhere, especially places like China. this is why every trade war ultimately just makes things worse for the US without any real benefit. they think they can strongarm other countries while forgetting they're reliant on every country they deal with and subjugate for, well, everything.
So, there is some misinformation here. While yes an end to us hegemony might create an opportunity for socialist movements, we should not, as socialists, be supporting any capitalist state as the power dynamics shift. Lenin was very clear on this, especially in reference to WW1 and how socialists abandoned the international labor movement to instead support one bourgeois state over another. We must not play lesser evilism with bourgeois states as while they may temporarily support workers movements in a rivalling nation, they will only do so as a means to weaken said rival, and will, in turn, target any successful revolutionary movement. A multipolar world merely means a change in the dominant capitalist states, not a socialist world.
To me its more like everybody are just being optimistic that by the time that becomes its own big problem, then another solution would appear by then. Its like everybody have a feeling that Taiwan is getting invaded someday by China, and it probably will, but you know, by the time we get there, hopefully things won't be as bad as we think it will be.
@1:05 yes yugo. These dudes hang out in twitter right-wing circles and hate "diversity" (let's not even talk about how the roman empire was diverse). These guys are actually quite loud and plentiful in that part of the internet
Romanians are extremely racist these days Also, they don't think they are the Romans inheritors, but their antecessors. They literally think that the dacians (an ancient people nearly wiped out by the Romans, that have very little continuity with modern Romanians) were the original civilization that the Greeks and Romans sprang from. Plus an RFK- esque idiot who praises the iron guard (Romanian WW2 fascists) is leading the presidential elections. So we're pretty fucked
It is decently common for Romanian nationalists to think they were a surviving bit of the Roman empire. There's no way for me to tell for sure, but it feels it also exists outside of far-right nationalist circles as a belief in Romania. I definitely know that ethno-nationalist narratives against Siebenbürger & Szekler are commonly held by every Romanian I encounter online.
21:51 - yes, sure that is true, but it's about citizenship first. It's the institution that enables the concept of the citizen, which creates the appearance of all classes having equal rights through the vote or through anyone having the right to stand for election, and of the imagined concept of homogeneity through national identity, what Hadžidedić calls a multi-purpose social glue by illusion.

*I really appreciate your clear and simple breakdown on financial pitfalls! I lost so much money on stook market but now making around $18k to $21k every week trading different stocks and cryptos*
You work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires
Most rich people stay rich by spending like the poor and investing without stopping then most poor people stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing like the rich but impressing them. People prefer to spend money on liabilities, Rather than investing in assets and be very profitable
I just laughed far too hard at 'das lower case'
Congrats since you're top comment you spoiled me

That only works with a govt also determined to build up local industry, like Iran, China, Russia.
And to build up local industry effectively you need infrastructure, And we all know the usa ain't getting that anytime soon lmao
