ProleWiki has been made aware that there is a severe lack of ML theory in Japanese. To that end, we are interested in opening a Japanese-language instance of ProleWiki and are looking for people to join this project. So far we have one, maybe 2 interested comrades.
In the first phase, we are interested in translating, proofreading and then uploading marxist theory on the new instance.
Down the line you can also of course make other content pages for this instance, such as party pages, but maintaining a language instance is a lot of work so that’s why we’ve reduced it to the most fundamental aspects (the three tasks above). We can set up the instance for you and explain how to upload books (it’s really easy once you got the hang of it), I just need to know if some people are interested and able to put in some time for this.
Pro-tip: you can easily translate whole books with AI (I can explain how if you join the discord, it’ll be easier to do this with everyone). But you still need to proofread it, especially with a language like Japanese. But at least it cuts down on like 90% of the work.
If you’re interested --> join the discord and mention this post in vetting (you will still have to answer the questions) https://discord.gg/ZQTBNRU9v5
They’re last I heard absolutely neutered. Follow the US imperialist line and are a joke. I am not an expert or Japanese this is just from recollections on discussions I’ve seen about them in the past.
It makes sense, Japan has been occupied by the US since 1945 and they crushed and killed the original communist movement and have kept a veritable dictatorship of the LDP or whatever running for quite some time.
