Welcome again to everybody! Make yourself at home. Sit down on the floor over there. No, it hasn’t been cleaned for a few weeks. What? No, there are no chairs. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is our weekly discussion thread!

We have our own Matrix homeserver at https://genzedong.org; you can make an account with any Matrix client (e.g. Element). We have a GenZedong Matrix room (see the sidebar for more information), although it’s not very active at the moment, and there’s also a general Lemmygrad Matrix room at #internationale:genzedong.org.

If you should happen to be interested in doing such a thing, you are able to join our Discord server through a process which will be initiated after clicking on this hyperlink

Short reading list for new MLs here. To find theory (and other books), you can use z-lib, libgen, or Sci-Hub (for scientific articles). If an article is unavailable, try the Wayback Machine.

    CNN publishes article revealing truth about Bakhmut and Soledar:

    A Ukrainian soldier fighting in the eastern town of Soledar told CNN that the situation is “critical” and the death toll is now so high that “no one counts the dead”.

    The soldier is from the 46th air mobile brigade, which is leading Ukraine’s fight to hold onto Soledar in the face of a massive assault from Russian troops and Wagner mercenaries. . . .

    He described a dynamic battlefield where buildings change hands daily and units can’t keep track of the escalating death toll. “No one will tell you how many dead and wounded there are. Because no one knows for sure. Not a single person,” he said. “Not at the headquarters. Not anywhere."
