Damn sometimes I forget how intellectualizing Americans will talk about the largest socialist country on the planet. Literally doing the “at what cost” meme lol

I’ll say it, even if what you’re saying is true, it’s true of all states, and it’s good and proper that the PRC reinforces a socialist worldview through it’s education. What’s the alternative?

Lizard freak

I usually really respect your posts, but no, the only chance for socialists to distinguish themselves in the US is to divest from the two party system, publicly and loudly. Everyone here who we can work to pull to our side fucking hates both parties, and in my knowledge the most prominent ML party in the US got a lot of positive, free press by being clear about divesting from the two party system.

A gun won’t do anything for you, you need a party. Start organizing and making connections, now, there’s no time to waste.

Is this seriously the picture that’ll be hanging in every school…

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Marxist Leninists are defined primarily by two principles:

• Anti Imperialism / Internationalism
• Defense and Construction of Socialism

It means that the Soviet Union was chiefly responsible for ending the Holocaust and supporting liberation struggles around the world. It means Cuba was able to transform itself from a strip-farmed slave and prostitution hell into a Democratic republic governed meaningfully by the Cuban people with dignity and education for all. All across east Asia it’s secured home rule and governments who meaningfully care and are comprised by regular working and peasant peoples. Marxism Leninism is the historical force which has been shown to be most able to grapple with the complex realities of our world dominated by white supremacy and capitalism, and fought back.

It’s the reason that the supposed atrocities commuted by socialist countries are minor compared to the grand historic crimes of empires like France, Britain, the US, Germany, Japan, etc. Mistakes are made and have been made by socialist countries, sure, of course; but they were the first nations to attempt to meaningfully house people for the sake of housing. They were the first projects to successfully overthrow colonialism, and to raise literacy rates to an absurd degree even higher than in the United States today. These socialist projects need to defend themselves because very few other historical forces have shown anywhere near the potential to make a better world.

So call it whatever you like, it’ll never erase the monumental good it’s done for the world.

THIS is why people have a problem with Anti-Communists

This is fucking horrifying, the worst part is knowing that people like this exist and are out there. Having to go through stuff like that, with self-righteous abusers, it really fucks you up.

Gone and Forgotten

One time I was walking down the street with an ice cream cone and a propeller hat and Maduro was sitting on a public bench. As I walked past him he tripped me, he lowered his face down to mine on the sidewalk as tears streamed down my face and called me a little “piss baby” and walked away. I am not a piss baby!

It’s very common he does this a lot.

I been hearing about HMPV, is this real or a fake scare?

Cool desktop, but the term ricing has roots in anti-asian racism, you should change the title or else your post’ll probably get taken down

Maybe I’m telling on myself here but most people don’t have so many cookbooks this is a problem, it’s better for people who’re trying to get into cooking

How did you make this???

Death to America

I think you raise some interesting points but I think that this just falls back into the failures of prefiguration and expecting resistance and revolution to grow out of an “organic” movement.

If we require prefiguration for our organizational forms, i.e. that we try and create the world that we want in miniature in the organizations we create, then we’ll largely fail without a greater strategic basis. This is the thesis of If We Burn by Vincent Bevins, which goes into how these tenets of prefiguration for our organizations lead to them being ultimately too flexible and loose to take hold of national revolutionary crisises which better-led movements are able to take to their advantage.

This just sounds like the age old problem of relying and requiring “organic” growth to happen. It’ll happen, it’ll get us far, but it has absolutely never been shown on a large national scale to get us far enough to lead to a revolutionary overthrow of society. The party justifies itself by being a conscious organ for working class people to collect knowledge, theory, and practice under one roof which is able to coordinate itself and operate outside the bounds of what would be “organic” or occur naturally otherwise. It doesn’t exist at the exclusion of organic left-wing growth, as that’s very necessary, but instead represents a section of this organic growth which is then conscious of itself and able to operate outside the bounds previously thought possible.

Am I understanding this all correctly?

I have to say my familiarity with NVNH is very surface level, as in I have no familiarity with it, but this concept of trying to create a “protocol” for safe, effective, and strong communication and cooperation between different people and groups sounds like the purpose of a socialist party. For example, a reason for a socialist party to exist is to give people from these different groups to sit down in one space, talk, compare notes, resolve tensions within working class communities for greater cooperation, etc. Am I wrong in saying that?
