because gendering into "manhood" is about sex (and the control over it generally) so they project it at the victims of patriarchy
cell cooperation
It wouldn't be called cooperation if that system itself didn't have contradictions like cells sacrificing themselves to clot blood, overriding their self interest to remain alive. Cells are also marked for death and if they break that system they can bring down the whole structure (cancer, auto immune disorders). Cells have to balance their self interests with their communal interests and that contradiction creates a higher level of organization than the simple parts (cooperation).
Another, more basic contradiction is requiring energy to be alive because living (action) requires energy, so we always need to be using energy to find energy (it takes energy to produce and consume food). If we don't get enough energy to sustain ourselves we waste away into death.
They are absolutely petty bourg and many hire writers, editors, videographers, marketers, managers in either semi-prole waged positions or as inter-bourg contract services. Many are outright capitalist to Imperialist when enlisting proletarian, colonized, or neo-Colonial labor to produce their merchandising.
None of them are proletarian (unless they primarily support themselves with wage labor for a capitalist).
The petty bourgs, semi-proletarians and labor aristocracy (so-called middle classes) in the core are crowdfunding a petty bourg strata of micro-celebrities with their Imperialism bucks
Apartheid went down without pressing the button. The Zionists will sooner flee.
It doesn't, sorta? Jong-un has an older brother who is not in politics. Jong-un was selected because he formulated a state-building ideology around how his grandfather and father operated the state and their wins and misses, anyone could have done that but he was the one who did the work and became leader of the party. As I understand Jong-un was also the leader for the nuclear program as an officer in the military and this has basically earned him immense respect in the DPRK.
Jong-un is the leader of the worker's party and the leader of the military, he's actually serving two functions that could be occupied by different people, both are appointed positions though iirc leader of the military (president) has to also be elected on in a confidence vote with the masses.
Jong-un is not the leader of the legislative body, that role is selected by the legislative body (which is elected locally like a congress). The current VP of state (2nd in line) is also the appointed chair of the legislature. The legislature is the highest organ of state, though the president is the highest ranking individual.
This is not dissimilar to how other ML states have been run. It's often that the next leader is the most advanced Communist (whether that's theoretically or organizationally though you need both). Deng was educated and shaped into the successor of Mao by Mao himself. Lenin had also trained Stalin among others. Xi similarly was such an advanced theoretician and organizer that he also earned his way to the top. It's not surprising that Il-sung and Jong-il had both trained their children to be advanced communists, though it's clear that not all of their kids wanted and worked to become leaders. So I'd say it's mostly coincidence, the "fixed" aspects are being the child of the leader you are being raised by the most advanced Communist in the nation, that's certainly an educational advantage, still Jong-un's older brother is apparently just a random musician (according to an exiled statesman).
I think it's best for the whole piece to be taken in to discuss the current party ecosystem within the Anglo settler states, PSL is in the section on revisionist and Trot orgs as its structure and issues are similar to the CPUSA. USU views FRSO as a potentially better org at least ideologically, even though it is a "pre-party" formation rather than a true party like PSL.
In my opinion, PSL has wealth that allows it, at least right now, to better serve organizers. However, the ideological development of the mass and leadership of the PSL is very lacking (and deeply Americanist), which is a crit you'll see from myself and Chunka Luta Network members a lot (some are in PSL too). PSL has money to do things that FRSO just doesn't right now since it is not a party organization at this time, so actions are coming out of the expenses of individuals. If FRSO's ideological development had the resources of PSL and CPUSA the movement in the Imperial Core would be a lot more interesting.
