I’m paying off my debt, take my partner on a few nice dates, and buy some books

Honestly they work well together. I get a story about American natives being stolen from a life of relative freedom to serve as chattel slaves for colonizers. Which of course, is what actually happened. My books are “Twelve Years a Slave” and “The Conquest of New Spain”

All states are authoritarian my friend. I would simply rather authority be wielded by the working class.

You should really give The State and Revolution a read. It’s not, “make a state and dismantle it later” it’s, “we should construct a state that eventually makes itself unneeded and whithers away”. The state is first and foremost an organ of class oppression. It exist for the purpose of exerting the authority of one class over the other, it is a dictatorship of that class. A bourgeois state seeks to maintain the existance of class but mitigate its contradictions as long as possible while a proletarian state seeks the elimination of class entirely, making that state itself a tool without a use. The actual execution of this is obviously very difficult but the elimination of a state without first the elimination of class is begging for a bourgeois counter revolution. You would be shooting yourself in the foot to attempt this. So, should we do nothing because doing anything is risky? Or should we die like dogs?

Big fan of her work

Are you organizing politically? Are you part of a revolutionary party? If so, why are they letting you continue to think in such an idealist manner?

Real shit

😔

Deleting this post actually

My opinions about it are obviously great actually thanks

Fuck is it ai? How could you tell?

Edit: Oh my god the jacket would deform 😔

Sorta, its the belief that capitalism can (and should) exist without the state, which is what makes me call it an unserious ideology. Seeing as the state arises from class contradiction and capitalism cannot exist without class. There are people who seriously believe this but that doesn’t make it coherent.

Granted, but that doesn’t make liberals on the left. The left right divide is primarily defined by the property question and liberals agree with conservatives on this matter making both of them on the right.

They most certainly are?

Maybe you are thinking of anarcho-capitalism which is not a serious ideology

I guess it gets understood a little different when it is not posted in explicitly communist spaces :/

Common refrain from capitalism fans is that communism can never work because humans are inherently selfish/greedy as proven by their observation that humans are selfish and greedy in the system that rewards selfishness and greed.

Begging you to click on my profile this is meant to be a joke 😭

Yeah of course, this meme is meant to be making fun of the idea that “human nature” (whatever that may be lol) in any way disproves communist or anticapitalist theory

The people who live in them are usually not very nice to me

Yes, unfortunately
