Wrong again. The working class is the owner of production, and elect and delegate managers dedicated to this task.

Name me a single grouping of any kind that doesn’t have managers, leaders, or organizers.

But that implies that the members of the party are actually part of the proletarian class. This supposed class membership is purely idealist.

You are incorrectly defining class. This essence of class is: who controls the means of production, and who decides what to do with the surplus value created, and who it goes to benefit.

State administrators (uncharitably bureaucrats as you would call them) are not a class. They do not privately owns means of production, nor collect the surplus value of workers, deciding privately what to do with it. What to do with the surplus, and production decisions, are determined by decision making at the collective, political-level, not at the private level. This means they are not driven by profit motives, since increasing exploitation personally gains them nothing.

Monopoly means that only a small amount of agents get access to it.

That was precisely the case. Durruti’s column especially found that any “decentralized” command structure breaks down quickly into interminable squabbles, and like any revolutionary army, had to institute a strict hierarchy and centralized control. Most but not all anarchist groups accepted this centralized control as a necessity.

I suggest reading the tyranny of structurelessness on why “anti-authoritarian” groupings always end up either destroying themselves, or in cults of personality due to their individualist rejection of rules, organization, and structures of authority.

Authoritarianism: The degree to which a power structure monopolizes control over the total social implementation of some power.
Domination: The degree to which some power structure utilizes coercion, violence, and/or deception to achieve its ends.

What existing collective doesn’t fit this definition? Because by this definition, the anarchist controlled areas of republican spain then, were deeply authoritarian.

Giant list of US atrocities

delet this

When reading / practicing I never use the pinyin, so I can get used to recognizing them. Ya it def helps, otherwise I’d rely too much on pinyin.

This post has like 50 downvoters from the NATO stans. Is there a reason you’re all not coming out to defend your boys?

I banned after this, reading further down and seeing them get more and more virulently racist.

Do you think Lenin would spend his time attacking a socdems that wanted to stop genocide while ignoring their further right opponent?

Platner does not want to stop genocide, he went to Iraq multiple times to help carry out one.

And Lenin literally spent most of his life in polemics against socdems. Platner’s probably even worse than Kerensky.

Going straight to the epstein class, and bombs for Israel.

I do agree that we could learn from China, but there’s also a damn good reason why their phones are banned in multiple countries.

Yes, because the US started a trade war with them because they can’t compete (in EVs also), and a few of their vassal states followed suit.

Considering that China is known for its heavy censorship and is in good cahoots with Russia

Sources on this? The PRC only blocks western surveillance platforms because they’re incredibly dangerous to let them loose in your country. They’re one of the few countries not naive enough to let facebook and google take over their social media landscape.

so people will not accept the new system might cause real problems, so it will need more repression

Capitalists are a tiny minority of the population, and only got there through exploitation of labor power. You can call this “repression” if you like, but its basic self-defense. People are righteous in resisting exploitation.

The democracy needs concessions, needs to accept in parts the other side, this why Nordic countries have a better social equality and a very capitalist oil extraction

Capitalist countries, including the nordic ones, aren’t democracies. They are capitalist dictatorships:

• What about social democracy / democratic socialism / the Nordic model? Isn’t Sweden socialist?
• On the unraveling of the Nordic welfare states: increasing inequality and forced austerity.
• Scandinavia’s covert role in western imperialism

This is the state of US democrats right now. Literally willing to vote for an abu-ghraib torture camp candidate as a “lesser-evil”.

She isn’t a middle-easterner, so the white-supremacist killing function doesn’t activate.

Adorable

Also the top left barely exists. They have no idea that the US couped Ukraine’s government in 2014, and since then started killing thousands of people in the Donbass, and pushing NATO expansion eastward. There was no peep from the anti-war ppl then about stopping the killings. The rhetoric from them has been dehumanizing slavic peoples, and against any negotiations with Russia to end the war.

The US has demonstrated that it will fight this war down to the last Ukrainian, and are the “anti-war” are mostly proud as long as its not western european or US blood being shed for NATO expansion.

Numbers stay the same, but the words for “collection/group” change depending on the object. It goes [number] [measure word] [noun]

I’m not familiar with Japanese so I can’t say.

We can have the solace that the US empire cannot last forever, and with all the atrocities it has and continues to commit, in the long term its digging its own grave. The people of the world refuse to be kept in chains, they have risen up and will continue to do so. Class struggle will rear its head until class society is abolished, and the contradictions inherent to it are resolved.
