    Trump and co. aren’t even pretending, which is precisely what they campaigned for as “being authentic” and “telling it like it is”. Liberals, on the other hand, are pretenders.

      Marx also railed against metaphysicians, who dogmatically try to apply one set of conditions to an entirely different context, ignoring the particularities. The concrete reality is that the CIA and Mossad were infesting and sparking the protests for the purposes of installing a reactionary monarchy. This isn’t worker liberation, the class interests served are the imperialist bourgeoisie. Without a strong and unified working class, revolution cannot succeed, and so the better organized factions like Mossad and the CIA would be able to take advantage of this.

    Strictly speaking, that headline and the articles I’ve read in the Western press, suggest the idea was to incite a rebellion by clearing a path. Meaning by weakening the regime and giving the protestors the opportunity to seize the government.

    It doesn’t suggest they were trying what they did in Afghanistan, finding all the incels and giving them money and guns.
