observing humanity from beyond
I always throw a “historical and dialectical materialism” by stalin recommendation. There is a section that clearly explains why production is the chief determinant force in development, what are the productive forces (tools+people) and what are the relations of production.
The US is objectively in decline.
The rise of multipolarity is a clear sign of failed foreign policy, the rise of internal fascism+homelessness is a clear sign of worsening of material conditions for US citizens, the rise of “21th century socialism” in latin america is also a sign of failed foreign policy.
Empires do not simply collapse out of nowhere, it is an historic process where small quantitative losses lead to qualitative changes like the examples i mentioned.
30 years ago when the USSR was dismantled, the US seemed unstoppable and was even declared the end of history, yet here we are. The US will score victories here and there, but the sum indicates that the US is in decline objectively in my opinion.
how u survive 😐
What he is saying is not wrong, but i do think it’s the wrong answer to the question he was asked.
Not mentioning production on a question about transition to socialism is just a plain bad answer.
The US won’t betray Ukraine because they weren’t on their side to begin with 😂
Uncritical support for ben hodges thought
Jfc that sounds awful, 40C in high humidity climates is nigh unhabitable.
If i didn’t have a calendar i wouldn’t know its december lol. It has been the warmest december i remember, haven’t gone to any party either (my decision, for the better). But it has been a near perfect weather for my crops lol.
He is definitely a very competent politician, but still let’s not give him that much credit. He still inherited soviet infrastructure and a highly educated workforce.
Putin will never be a communist, he is as anti-communist as it gets. Being aligned with China is just a result of realpolitik.
This is my main problem with global south leftists and self-proclaimed communists, production is largely ignored. The right wing has managed to use this against the left, it is a common talking point throughout latin america that the “right is production and left is parasitism” and rarely does the left confront this narrative.
bro kind of forgot to mention that you also have to develop the productive forces, production is the chief determinant force of development of society.
you may be right, still i was pointing out that it is a misleading statistic even if it were true.
The 87% is based on the number of troops prior to the war, you know before recruiting policies for the war were issued lol. Its just a stupid stat, i wonder why they dont bring up Ukraines numbers, i bet theyre > 100%.
These pictures have nothing to do with socialism or fascism really. Now the way the image is framed is stupid and really tells how the poster has never read anything and just likes the aesthetics.
you are just a nerd
