“We are witnessing the emergence of the material basis for transnational solidarity of a new type, one conducted not between national parties but between global cities in struggle against a common foe. As we’ll see, this new type of solidarity was predicted by revolutionaries decades ago.”

The Black Panthers had the best dialectic of communism under the ideology of revolutionary intercommunalism. Google it.
The Black Panthers weren’t just infiltrated because they were Black, they were infiltrated because their communist ideology had began to influence not just Black people, but other groups within this country
Communism was working and the FBI and CIA went through great lengths to stop the spread

I really like what the Black Panthers termed Revolutionary Intercommunalism, which to me ends up being a very Marxist dialectical argument for international anarchist communism being the only way our world could truly thrive and that it needs always be our fight

Elite Capture by @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social is a good one but also like, technofeudalism by yanis (I forget how to spell his last name) and also Intercommunalism by Huey p newton. For the last one you can just go read his speech when he introduced it.

Case In point, Black Panthers Marxist Leninist and had the best understanding of dialectical and historical materialism as described by Huey P Newton in his speech about Revolutionary intercommunalism. Being completely anti ML would keep one away from that important work

You probably already found this, but this text I think is key for understanding the philosophical underpinnings of Newton's thought. I have an article on his idea of intercommunalism coming up in the Dutch edition of Jacobin.
