Anti-HIV PrEP remains $2000/month in the US, two years on from generic FDA approval. In Cuba it’s now free:
In March 2019 Cuba began a pilot scheme to supply the only effective HIV prevention drug PrEP (pre-exposure prophylactic) free of charge to those in need. Following on from their successful 2015 drive to completely eradicate HIV and syphilis transmission in utero, Cuba’s National Centre for Sex Education began a program in conjunction with the Pan-American Health Organisation (PAHO) to distribute the drug for free.

The Long Game and Its Contradictions:
China has overcome colonial oppression, emerged from “100 years of humiliation”, and is now developing its socialist power on the world stage. Through mutually beneficial relationships and a policy of peaceful co-existence, China under the leadership of the Communist Party is actively assisting in the independent economic development of the over-exploited nations of the Global South, eliminating the primary contradiction of our age — inter-continental inequality. Alleviating poverty, promoting trade and learning, and building alliances based on respect and cooperation, the aim is to displace Western hegemony, break imperialist cycles of violence, end capitalist domination, and pave the road toward global communism.

As per this viewpoint of the role and nature of modern China’s nature, which I disagree with, where does China buying out Piraeus, and COSCO, a state Chinese company, being detrimental to the workers there and enforcing horrible working conditions, doing exactly what any other company of any other state would in their place, fall in? Is it another of the contradictions, among the many others?
Because imo, it makes sense from a capitalist perspective and it makes sense from a geopolitical perspective of a modern Great Power working on expanding influence, following the example of the other Great Powers of the world. But from how I see it, not from a socialist perspective.

Here's a somewhat last-minute reminder because I've been busy with real-world duties, but today at 21:00 CET, or in ca. 45 minutes there will be a radio event. You can join the Discord server where this will take place via the following link: https://discord.gg/UbqFnM

What actually happened to the Internationale? I've been gone for more than a year.

In a masterfully designed agitprop program to demonstrate to the world that socialism/communism/anarchism/etc. is a source of unbridled joy, we have been doing a hop, skip, and a jump around... Jump around! Jump around! Jump up, jump up, and get down! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XhzpxjuwZy0

Excellent news, everyone: We have successfully refounded our home region of The Internationale. As such, we can now move back to our original region. I would here like to thank Zulanka for allowing us to stay in Grenada for the duration of our time outside of TI.

Hurrah our Long March is a victory.
