Today I’m talking to Joti Brar, one of the leaders of the Communist Party of Great Britain, the editor of the party’s publication, and the Spokesperson for the World Anti-Imerialist Platform.

Joti Brar of CPGB-ML is the daughter of the late Harpal Brar.

“Neutrality Studies” is some Swiss nonsense, but at least they’ll listen to communists and anti-imperialists.

What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power?

I dont think I agree with you here, when we post any large news org its with an understanding that its just a single slice of perspective on an issue - we should know better as communists that these orgs are always highly biased. Al Jazeera just tends to be the one we goto because it at least presents something closer to the center with the Palestine/Isreal conflict and has some inherent, but narrow value in understanding a vector of the situation. This doesnt excuse anything else they have done, and im sure most of us agree with that.

But with the CPG-ML party when we post stuff thats meant to be 'on side' it is seen more as an endorsement of an orgs views and should be held to a higher standard of critique otherwise we're open to opportunist reactionaries trying to do entryism into us, our party lines are non-negotiable when it comes to trans people and that should go without saying.

These orgs are not only highly biased(which is to put it mildly) but mouthpieces/collaborators of fascist governments that have done great damage to plenty of the oppressed in the global south. These western media are as dangerous as the Patsocs because they have even a higher audience to reach to. Al Jazeera is one example and other examples are the BBC, Sky news and other western media. If the goal is not to allow reactionaries trying to do entryism into us or any fascists as mentioned by Red_Scare, I don't we should be lenient with any of these western media as well.

Maybe, a warning might help to have a heads up of the author's(such as CPGB-ML) disgusting views or to make this more productive you could share an alternative to keep the focus on the topic at hand.
