This is very true
Right? They just pull reality itself out of their ass, dust it off, and present it with glee
"As Marxists we must oppose everything the west approves of and approve of everything the west opposes"?
TIL Marxism is when contrarianism
I think Engels was more referring to building up the rural as opposed to breaking down the urban. And I support him in this. A chain is only as strong as it's weakest link, and the contradictions between city and country have caused far too much damage as seen in today's neoliberalist America. Maintaining this moving forward would be asking for trouble later down the line. We must balance the development to remedy the contradictions
Thank you for sharing this. Black Americans are forced down the race rabbit hole because the settler whites (MAGA, the middle class, the racist pigs, etc...) drag you down it. I understand you see things as race for survival. Do you recognize that the slavery economic mode of production from which their terror originates has passed and we are in the capitalist mode of production and with it capitalist relations to the means of production?
This means that the only escape from this terrorism this racist tyranny, is through a working class revolution. America has never had a feudal mode of production. It is likely that if we were to go the way of barbarism here at the point of capitalist crisis instead of socialism, we could very well see slavery come back. This being the backfoot of the bourgeoisie is likely how these settlers still persist similar to how the remnants of the Russian Empire (White Army) persisted in Soviet Russia.
I cannot simply waive my mouse and like magic this contradiction of needing the non-black working class and not trusting the non-black working class will be resolved. I simply as that you listen to the points I've made. The rest is a matter of struggle and solidarity within our class.
It won't be sacrificial once BRICS finishes their assault on the petrodollar as world currency and the trillions in debt become due. We cannot do all ourselves and thankfully we do not have to.
My thoughts? There's not enough of it. Also that this type of media is new so it will take years for it to be finely tuned. The results from consuming proletarian media should be:
- increased class consciousness
- increased understanding of Marxist political theory
- reduced apathy
- increased organizing via it's consumers
Lastly, organizations responsible for this content have a class responsibility to maintain their class membership. As commodities become popular under capitalism, companies which produce it grow and as they do so their class membership changes from proletarian to labor aristocrat or even bourgeoisie. Marxist economic organizing of these organizations are required to keep them "true to their word and goals" so to speak.
Never let them forget it. The time they brilliantly thought everyone is as shitty as they are on the inside. These supposed "leaders of the civilized world".
Yeah the irony is lost on them, they don't even have a leg to stand on with their propaganda.
A casual reminder of who runs Russia now, despite all their glamoring over their country's Soviet heritage when it's convenient.
Oh they're here. They're to us in our spaces as MAGA is to mainstream neoliberal spaces - they invade to sabotage, they seek to destroy. We could move to Mars and they'd send space drones with propaganda blasting from speakers.
