Remembering the Naval Mutiny of 1946

The 19th of February 2026 would mark the 80th anniversary of the naval mutiny, the event which shook the British Raj to its core and made British rule in India impossible. The uprising of the mutinying naval ratings of the British Indian Navy was not one isolated incident, it was the culmination of the rising class consciousness of the people of India, and it was the culmination of the growth of class struggle in British India.

Will Erdoğan’s new ministers guarantee his reelection?

Will Erdoğan’s new ministers guarantee his reelection?

Drug trafficking is a capitalist business, convenient for imperialist intervention

It’s no coincidence that Trump and Colombia’s far-right Uribismo agree on anti-drug policies of military repression and forced eradication of illicit crops, as well as the defense of “cooperation” between the United States and Colombia.

Despite its rhetoric “in defense […]
