A marxist state will never exist in the US without reparations and land back being major platforms, and without the broad support of poc and the indigenous.

And why put words in their mouth? People usually don’t read the articles (read the articles btw people, I CAN TELL YOU JUST READ THE HEADLINES THEN POST), but you didn’t even read the entire tweet

I really hate the anti-work left. I’m disabled. I cant work. I WANT TO, but literally can’t maintain consistent schedules and long hours w/o time off for my health. The only job I could get would be at Goodwill for under a dollar an hour (this is done so disabled people can work without losing their benefits, but are still stuck in forever poverty, and ofc so Goodwill doesn’t have to pay their workers). From my reading of the ussr they largely helped the disabled actually work (within accomodation) and feel productive w/o making them slaves. That’s cute af

Does sex count? Otherwise Animal crossing has like a 1minute stretch session daily that I use as a warmup for a longer session. I wish more non-vr video games had wiifit mechanics

Saints Row* kiiiiiiiiiiiiiinda has this. Good cc and play a girl and you’re canon trans (tho it’s just people saying wow the boss sure looks really different since the last game)

I read Anarchy works on recommendation of several anarchists. Peter gelderloo is like the anarchrist parenti ig. Its working examples of anarchism are all primitive communism and it shrugs its shoulders at the end, acknowledging that if your anarchist society did win, they would then be surrounded by hostile armies. Like it ends with zero solution to these problems, but anarchy still works somehow

Why are they a mixed economy and not just a socialist market economy? Or does the latter mean the former and I’m a dope

Can someone post that clip of Hillary where she admits the problem with china is literally who owns the means of production. Like she even uses the phrase

100. Goddamn.

Piggybacking this, what about Haiti? Like a year ago Usians sent in their special forces to remove the revolutionaries and “gangs”

Like if you hadn’t I was about to lol

Late Phases is about a werewolf in a retirement home, with a blind senior protagonist. It’s great lol

Slay qween

What if my wishful thinking is true

Afaik they all signed a document to be in this debated saying they’d support whoever won

Liberal = supporter of capitalism. I suggest reading lots and lots on liberal and especially marxist theory, I used to be a centrist like you, because I only trusted what was trusted by liberal media, because ofc I wantdd to be correct, and it took years to realize they were lying and acting in bad faith. I was also hardcore falling for the golden mean fallacy

No one has suggested any readings yet (being a marxist is 50% reading and learning 50% trying to organize), so I’m recommending On Authority by Engels (this is a page long but very necessary, I highly suggest reading this future comrade!) After that dive in to State and Revolution by Lenin or Kapital by Marx, depending on how skeptical you are on supporting capitalism

On Authority, which is only a page long!

Lemme know if you have any questions too

Since communism isn’t illegal in western countries, and there’s literally nothing stopping a bunch of comrades from starting a business where the workers maintain control over the means of production,

Yes, this is called China, Vietnam, Laos, Cuba, North Korea, and the former USSR (and many others)

E: also not being snarky, mondragon and basically all co-ops are working as you suggest. Did you not know what a worker co-op was??

Read marx! Like actually google marx and read kapital or better yet Lenin’s State and Revolution. Or google On Authority by Engels (this one is just a page long, read this and you can get out of reading the others, report back afterwards if you want!)

Why does the west spend millions trying to topple China if they’re not communists. Why is China immune to recession if they’re not communist. Why have living standards risen for decades in China if they’re not communist (which meanwhile hasn’t happened in the west also in decades, with even the Nordic model going downhill)

You don’t even have to read theory. This should be obvious

But if you could read theory (your reading level might actually be too low to understand Lenin or Marx or Mao, this isn’t an insult, most westerners have a 6th grade reading level) you’d see thousands of pages of theory as to why capitalism was introduced.

You don’t want to read or think tho, you wanna say gommunism no. No gommunism. You also won’t read liberal theory to discover how bloodthirsty it is either or anarchist or really anything

I suggest starting with State and Revolution by Lenin if you’re actually able to read better than a 19th century peasant. You’d be shocked how accurately he just describes reality as it is now

Also stanning Sonic. I just beat Mania again and that + the animated shorts are fire
