El Salvador has proven the only way to solve rampant crime is through mega prisons and zero-tolerance laws.

What’s stopping Detroit or Chicago from doing this?

How do I become comfortable with the prospect of violently opposing the settler scum who are closest to me? Prime example being my wife, she’s not particularly sympathetic to communism on account of her petty bourgeois class status and complacent antiintellectualism, and I know she would rather keep herself comfortable than side with the proletariat in the event of an emergent revolutionary situation. Also my mom.

How do I get myself to the point where if a representative of the people’s army handed me a weapon and demanded that I do what is necessary to these vile parasites, I would be willing to do so without hesitation? I know that’s an absurd scenario but I’m not sure what else to use as a litmus test. I guess this is disgustingly liberal of me but the thought of shooting my wife and my mom in the face really really bothers me even if it would be in the best interests of the proletariat to do so.

I know this place is full of settlers who used to feel the same way I do. How did you get yourself to the point where you’re willing to enact extreme violence against almost everyone you know? How do you live day to day surrounded by these people and pretending you don’t want to hurt them?

lol k

suppousing you are the chosen one proletarian hero you'd be far away from your petty bourgeois wife and mother when revolution erupts i.e. the revolution won't find you in the fascistic suburban dwellings but in the industrial centers of the country. so someone else would do it. stalin and lenin loved their mothers.

Dump all the seemingly pointless, dubious, and frivolous questions that don't deserve their own shitty threads.

Got a question that's probably been asked a million times before? You're in the right landfill, buddy. Post it here.

Threads that otherwise might go in here will eventually find themselves become merged to this thread.

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but I am a us coast guard veteran, now commercial diver, looking to join the iww. I've always had union politics, but am worried that my mixed military and law enforcement background would prohibit me from joining. I was a boatswain's mate (sailor), which entailed conducting search and rescue missions and ship boardings for illegal salvage/fishing etc. The iww's constitution permits membership regardless of veteran status, but excludes law enforcement and prison guards. My service was military, but the coast guard is the only military branch under homeland security making some of the work I did "law enforcement". Does anyone have any suggestions?

Who was in the wrong here? The Soviets supported the more moderate Parcham but also wanted both of them to reconcile. Did the Khalq push the situation over the edge by ignoring Afghanistans material conditions. Thoughts?

I don't see why it's fundamentally different from Ethiopia or Angola or even China. Every single place socialist revolution was successful in the 20th century was comparatively pre-capitalist and some were enormously pre-capitalist/semi-feudal in absolute terms. You either think that is surmountable or you don't. Treating Afghanistan as a special case because of supposedly unchanging tribalism seems vaguely racist to me (certainly more than saying religion is incompatible with Communism, which is factual and the original Leninist position). They had four cities with comparatively (compared to the rest of the country) well-developed capitalist relations, which is more than some revolutions that lasted longer.

>>2114696
I can't comment on Angola since I'm not especially familiar with it, but from my limited knowledge of Ethiopia they encountered similar problems did they not?

Bolivian Police Clash with Protesters Demanding Arce’s Resignation Amidst Growing Social Unrest
The protesters, who have vowed to maintain a vigil near Plaza Murillo until their demands are met, are calling for the resignation of President Luis Arce and a reversal of current economic and social policies. According to teleSUR correspondent Freddy Morales, the protesters believe Arce has betrayed the mandate of the people, and are demanding a shift towards more equitable and progressive policies.

Why do you hate China?

>>2114431
>Can you explain why Chinese people should have "broad ideological opposition to the Chinese state"?
They are slaves under a capitalist system
>So its better for regular people to do it, not for the government to execute billionaires and CEOs? Why?
I didn't say it necessarily was, I was simply using it as an example of American opposition to their ruling class in contrast to Chinese. For the record though, the fact that their is billionaries in China in the first place TO execute reflects highly on the character of that state.

"We must not always attach too much importance to violent attacks on the bourgeoisie; they may be motivated by the desire to reform and perfect capitalism." G.S.
>Why?
It is a dictatorship of incapacity, it inculcates a condition of decadence into both classes by which they lose all class energy, it is a circumstance in which a ruling class of philanthropic politicians control a mass lost in hedonistic self-gratification. Read Reflections on Violence.

Why does it feel like the western communist always overlook Yugoslavia and Bulgaria and Romania while always talking about Cuba, Burkina Faso, Vietnam. I do respect these nations and their accomplishments but it just feels like westerners only care about the Soviet Union, China, Cuba, Burkina Faso, Vietnam, While the rest are forgotten like Benin or Laos. Or who knows i might be wrong.

>Cuba is small but is unique as the only communist state in the Western hemisphere
It's often overlooked, but in the U.S., the Cuban Revolution had particular resonance with African-Americans. When Fidel showed up to give a speech to the U.N. he dipped into Harlem, and gave another speech there in the 90s (in the background of the second pic is Charlie Rangel, a long-serving Democratic politician). Diaz-Canel has also done it.

Cuba practiced segregation before the revolution, like in the U.S. South. Then during the Black Power movement, ther were black radicals in the U.S. who'd escape to Cuba when the government went after them.


i guess we all had that hoxhaist phase

people dont really know much about Bulgaria while Romania just always gets associated with ceasecu as the 'worst' of the eastern bloc countries

How do 'third worldists' rationalize opposing 'third world' proles in the name of lesser evilism?

I know that opportunism, hollow bourgeois moralism and alienation are the political, emotional and psychological reasons respectively. I'm still inclined to ask perhaps in the hope of agitation and evoking a moment of self reflection for Kautskyites. Why? Why support the reactionary and imperialist forces that are brutalizing and tormenting the working classes here, which function as the vanguards of capital in our regions? While I don't believe in the inevitability of communism, I hope to at least live and see revolution crushing our bourgeoisie and to smash your false pitiful idols with it while making its way to your own bourgeoisie. May the endless coups under the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie (like the recent one in Syria) be put to an end by revolution. Glory to the boot of the worker which will trample the bourgeoisie, its lapdogs and all their tendencies with it in its invariant path towards communism.

It was the junta that stoked ethnic conflict by targeting minorities. Any future Balkanization of Myanmar would be entirely their fault.

Yeah, no thanks. Might as well just critically support Israel atp, like many multipolaristas unironically do.

I'm asking this sincerely, please don't bully.

How would a hikikomori neet lifestyle function under socialism/communism? Are "workers who don't want to work" even allowed in such systems? What if they're autistic and genuinely don't want to interact with others?
Sorry if I'm rambling I'm just confused.

>it never totally disappears though right? it just feels like an assumption to me that everything will be completely voluntary.
No, it would eventually be completely voluntary because people would want things to do. This only seems strange from the perspective of people today where we are forced to do way more labor than needed to sustain society, because capitalism demands consumption maxxing and therefore production maxxing.
