Richard Schmitt criticized that ORF referred to the AfD as "far-right" in its morning news at 6:30 AM without explaining or providing evidence. He accused the broadcaster of having a leftist orientation and claimed that everything to the right of Marx is classified as far-right there. Schmitt demanded either neutral reporting or the privatization of the broadcaster. Since he believed that neutral reporting was no longer attainable, he advocated for privatization and said that leftist activists would then have to raise 800 million euros themselves to maintain their propaganda offerings. He also urged the AfD to file a lawsuit. #Sonntag #Medienkritik #AfD (translated)

Verônica Domingues stated that she never advocated for nudity as empowering or revolutionary and said that, as a Marxist, she did not consider any individual action capable of promoting a revolution. For her, showing breasts was an expression of sexuality or part of her work with adult content, and no work would be empowering under capitalism. The author said that blaming women for their objectification for wearing short clothes or posting nude photos was misogynistic, and emphasized the importance of consent. Regarding publishing images with a Lula sticker during the campaign, she assessed that this would probably not change votes, but argued that art did not need to have only a utilitarian purpose. Domingues also stated that she used other social networks, including Instagram and TikTok, to raise awareness and bring the left closer to Marxism. She criticized radical feminists who, according to her, treated sex as immoral and scrutinized the bodies of women who consented to appear nude. She also said that the revolution depended on the collective organization of the working class, not on showing or covering breasts. #Feminismo #Marxismo #DireitosDasMulheres (translated)

Karina Michelin stated that a large-scale fire destroyed laboratories and research at the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE) on the night of Wednesday, October 7. According to her, the rector Alfredo Macedo Gomes estimated the damages at R$ 100 million. The author said that, before the conclusion of an investigation into the origin of the flames, the case was already politically associated with supporters of Flávio Bolsonaro. She linked this association to the circulation of anonymous screenshots with threats attributed to Bolsonaro supporters, released by elected federal deputy Jones Manoel from the PSOL party. According to Michelin, he announced that he would request investigations from the Federal Police and the Federal Public Ministry, but there was no confirmed identification of the authors, public authentication of the conversations, or evidence presented that linked the threats to the fire. Michelin also mentioned protests organized by university entities at UFPE on October 6, following the results of the first round, which, according to her, consolidated the advance of the right in Congress. The author questioned who produced and published the screenshots and why political accusations emerged before the conclusion of the investigations. She argued that the hypothesis of a "false flag" should be investigated, including the possible fabrication of political accusations, and stated that using anonymous messages to politically condemn someone without proof could escalate tensions in the country before the second round. #IncêndioUFPE #LiberdadeAcadêmica #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)

Auguste Bardamu claimed that Karl Marx never paid Helene Demuth a regular salary, who had worked for over forty years for his family in exchange for lodging and food. He wrote that she took care of the laundry, meals, and children. According to Bardamu, Marx had gotten Demuth pregnant in 1851 and refused to acknowledge their son, Frederick. The author argued that Friedrich Engels publicly endorsed the paternity of the child at Marx's request, and then Frederick was placed in a poor foster family in London. He also claimed that Marx never gave her money and prohibited her from entering through the main door during visits to her mother. Bardamu added that Engels only revealed the true identity of the father on his deathbed. He concluded that Marx wrote "Capital" while Demuth worked in his home without payment. #Marx #Exploitation #LutteDesClasses (translated)

Steffen Larsen wrote that, in his opinion, it did not help to burn down a school if one was dissatisfied with it, and that it was easier to improve the school if it still stood. He added that he was not a Marxist, and related this to his understanding of causality. Larsen claimed that the left and the Islamists were united in a struggle to destroy France and Europe and the secular French societies as well as the norms on which the country's education was based. He wrote that it was crucial that they did not succeed, because in his view it would be devastating both in the short and long term. #dkpol #danskpolitik #uddannelse #samfund (translated)
