>prolly it'll be another redlining policy, which will accentuate the income gaps between the already rich kids and the poor.
Correct.
Humorously they stated that the policy would be for families in neighborhoods with median income under 150k a year. So like
>segregated by neighborhood ✔
>means tested ✔
>inclusive of the high end of families ✔
and of course
>additional contributions (max 5k a month) are subject to discretionary stock distribution by the corporations ✔

This is how they're reinventing white neighborhoods with special privileges.

Additional layer of fuckery: Ethan Klein built his entire brand on doing reaction videos and was personally involved in the landmark legal case that ruled reaction videos are fair game.

'The trots' are literally the ones who have secured collective leadership and everything good so far, but ok.

>>2581878
collective leadership is gay and means the party will be dysfunctional

Can't purchase violent, sexy or scary games on Steam in the UK anymore despite being an adult in my 30s, all because of the damn internet safety law.
Why is our government like this??

>After a weekend of despair i've decided your party is actually going to be cool we just need to struggle against Trots and such
based. Thinking of joining but want to let it all pan out and for the factions to form first, to know what i'm getting into and who to align with, so to speak.
>>2581878
for entirely self-interested reasons.

>>2581878
Collective leadership will mean little in reality, it was already ruled by committee, that committee was always going to end up elected.

More or less everyone wanted more democracy in the party, you didn't invent member lead calm down, all you did was introduce a back door to the swp with the dual carding thing.
>>2581913
nah mate if you're cool join now and start shouting loudly. There is a lot of whack stuff happening it needs to be challenge before it can procreate

The don't want us to know this, but helium comes from the inside the earths mantel and naturally bubbles up along fault lines. We have infinite helium.

>>2581160
it comes from natural gas as a byproduct. not mines.

Good. I hope we run out. If it leads to societal collapse all the better.
Communism isn't ever happening if we don't shake society up somehow, and this seems preferable to nuclear war.

>>2581610
It will only lead to less scientific advances

>>2581822
Correct. We need to stop the capitalists from wasting any more, and preserve whats left for advancements.

Actually the Bolsheviks were majority proletarian and the october revolution was a revolution of the peasants and proletarians, that's why their symbol has both a hammer and sickle on it. Unfortunately the USSR was eventually defeated and dissolved, but still they were the longest lasting and most advanced experiment in socialist construction, proletarian dictatorship and revolution in history.
Hope that clears things up for you <3

>>2581830
You should use opera instead of chrome or firefox as it is owned by a Chinese megacorp so all your data will be owned and sold by proletarian managers

I have a feeling that you can't be anti-dengist without critizicing all other Warsaw pact countries. Like East Germany, Czechoslovakia and Poland had firms that weren't publicly traded, but had join-stock ownership. For example the SDAG Wismut was a 50% German and 50% Soviet joint-stock company.

>Well it seems to be, i didn't bring in any personal arguments, it was you who brought up ego and whatever else. Unless you're saying it's my tone that brings in the ego, but I would say that's more of a you issue
>Hm yeah I mean you might be a super special boy who lives outside of history with his big brain that just takes in information and objectively analyzes it, who'd have been a marxist even if the bolsheviks didn't take power
Stop coping
>Im simply saying that it is Lenin and the Bolsheviks that popularized and made Marxism historically relevant, in actual history
And I am simply saying that’s egoistical Leninist bullshit
>They were only able to do this because Marxism is correct, independently of them
It was also popular and international independently of them.

>Idk I haven't been on 4chan in years
I find that hard to believe, but sure
>from what I remember they'd mostly just talk about how Marxism is a jewish thing
They do that too
>idk where this idea of yours comes from that 4channers are Leninists
That isn’t what i’m saying. It’s not an idea either. They this exact phrase:

MLibs be posting this not knowing that the average age there is 60 and people tend to miss their youth

It only proves nationalist illusions about le glorious past they had under that socdem monarchy

>Old who Lived under socialism:Its nostalgia
>young who has a positive view: you dont know your history
Also Ceaușescus popularity is in the youth as well to the point the Romanian government is clamping down on it. Look at this anti-commie burger get upset about some young university students saying positive things about the socialist period. These are supposed to be the most pro-EU

>If you are poor: You are envious.
>If you are rich: You are a hypocrite.
>If you don't have a don't have a degree: You are ignorant.
>If you do have a degree: You are disconnected/utopian.

Anyone care to add to the list? Maybe:

>If you are an incel: You are bitter.
>If you have big family: You had too many kids.
>If you are a worker in the public sector: You are entitled.
>If you are a worker in the private sector: You are resentful and/or lack entrepreneurship.

because the pink tide failed to address the problems of wealth inequality. they could ride the commodity boom wave to avoid the problems of the 2008 financial crises but when the boom ended they were left in a rut. The latam lumpenbourgeoise no longer benefited in helping conciliatory social democrats now that there was a profitablity crises.

>They already have all the SAM sites mapped out and even those in bunkers since they have been using starlink and palantir to track locations of vehicles around venezuela
what if their data is dogshit?
> I truly hate the way war is conducted in the west. No honor, no heroic fight,
why would the ruling class be "honorable" or "heroic" in its desperate scramble to maintain imperialism? The point is to be as ruthless and sociopathic as possible. Not to make things "fair" or "honorable." The entire purpose is to keep things as unfair as possible for as long as possible, so that they can die in their bunkers at the age of 150 in their medbeds with their sex slaves gathered around them after the surface has been made uninhabitable by climate change.

>No honor, no heroic fight, just turkey shoot police operations. Fucking shit show. I wish america fought wars like russia, with massive casulaties and manliness

I'll go to jail before I do a damn thing for uncle sam

>>2581827
>The point is to be as ruthless and sociopathic as possible. Not to make things "fair" or "honorable."
It's why they're in this mess in the first place. They want an empire, but have zero intention to actually go and do what it takes, forgetting what it took to carve one out. In a way, no other empire declined, like the American one. They didn't even seriously fight for their hegemony, it was just handed to them.

everyone is still gonna vote Democrat because 3 years is not enough time to establish a workers party that can get to that stage.
Maybe some local elections some small socialist parties can get but that's where you start.

Any idiot with a discord account or a minecraft server can "create community", and they'll doubtless create a more meaningful one than "small circle of historical losers licking their wounds over world-historic organizing blunders, relitigating debates from 20 years ago over and over and over again, pausing only for the occasional funeral"

2017 called and wants their take back
Pretty much every idpol stereotype group has drifted leftwards to class-based demands, even if they're naturally still focused on how it benefits their group specifically. The girlboss feminist has been dead for longer than she was alive, and so far as she and all the other idpol bogeymen were ever alive, their existence is the product of capitalists responding to bottom-up pressure for social justice rather than applying top-down machinations of their own free will. A university does land acknowledgements because it's cheaper than giving the land back, yes, but it also does them because someone is demanding they do something. One winds up with a very wrongheaded view of the world if they misinterpret (largely failed) co-option for creation.
(And because it failed, you see the present administrative backlash against all these groups! They gave the proles some carrot stickers for their laptop, that wasn't enough, now they're going to try and beat them down with the stick until they remember their place.)

More than half of Americans have an associates degree or higher, and nearly 40% have a bachelors or higher. This gets even more aggressive as you account for age.
And America's on the lower end. Having a degree is incredibly common thanks to the massive expansion of higher education to cover up youth unemployment, and one of the markers of the fundamental unseriousness of the "serious" left is that they continue to fetishise the aesthetic of the high-school educated factory worker in an economy which has made that stereotype about as relevant as the cowboy.
Indeed, since being more educated generally correlates with being more left-wing, one should see ominous tidings in America's decliPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Pay reparations to CSA survivors.

Social media has normalized self-righteousness and turning your entire personality into a brand centring around “I’M SUCH A MORAL PERSON”. Don’t bother with recruiting the self-righteous do-nothings.
