Socialism today splits into reformists, anarchists and Marxists. Reformists give up on breaking with capitalism and settle for minor adjustments and class cooperation. Anarchists start with the individual, believing free communities will emerge naturally. Marxists put the organized working class at the center. They argue that only a united proletariat taking control of production can end exploitation. The real divide is between building from isolated individuals or from the collective strength of workers.

Real change is not gradual. Conflicts within society build up until they trigger a fundamental break. This is the idea of quantity changing into quality. Revolutions happen when the old order decays and new forces grow strong enough to replace it. Or as Lenin says it, when the old cannot rule in the old way, and the new is not strong enough to rule in the new way. Ideas develop out of real conditions. How people produce and who owns the tools of production shape their worldview. Change the material base first and thought will follow. In a word, this is the theory of dialectical materialism. Ignoring this is chasing illusions. Anarchists often misunderstand or dismiss these insights, treating them like empty words instead of tools for understanding how power shifts.

A small ownership class controls land, factories, machines and raw materials. Workers must sell their labor for a wage, while owners keep all the extra value. This setup depends on private property and state power. But a socialist revolution will make productive forces common property. Classes, wages and markets will gradually disappear under the proletarian dictatorship. Production will be organized to meet people’s needs. The old state apparatus loses its purpose and it withers away. This is, in a word, the theory of revolution.

Practical goals are clear. Build mass unions and cooperatives to sharpen class awareness, but don’t mistake them for the final goal. Form a disciplined workers’ party that can win political power. Use that power to expropriate the capitalist class, protect gains with proletarian red army, and reorganize production on a social basis. Strikes, elections and protests prepare the ground. Only a full socialist revolution, led by a communist party, can uproot exploitation.

Ahem.. Nique la france!
Ceci étant dit, nous pouvons maintenant avoir une discussion.
Il s'agit maintenant de tranquillement mépriser le pouvoir en nous branlant les uns les autres, en cercle peut être.

Know thy enemy. Know how the glow operates, how it plans, how it thinks, how it manipulates.

A thread dedicated to posting declassified CIA documents, preferably of their anti-communist activities and their involvment in imperialist policies.

Let's start with the CIA's recommended actions to be taken after Khruschev's famous anti-Stalin """secret speech""" at the 20th congress. It's an interesting document because it showcases that
>yes, the CIA (and burger policy makers) do actually believe their own propaganda, even when they are completely conscious of the fact that they just "made it up, lol". It's a truly scizophrenic institution.
>yes, they prefer to control "both sides" of any topic, instead of just lamely chosing the obvious side to take
>yes, the M-Ls are always right:
<Leon Trotsky in his book The Revolution Betrayed, alleged that the rise of Joseph Stalin to power was a Soviet Thermidor for 'not restoring capitalism', yet still being a 'counterrevolutionary regression' within the regime of the USSR, as Thermidor did not restore a monarchy, etc. Marxist-Leninists and Stalinists have periodically argued that Nikita Khruschev's rise to power and the implementation of De-Stalinization as the Soviet Union’s Thermidor. A CIA document considered Khruschev's "On the Cult of Personality and Its Consequences" may have 'marked the "Thermidor" of the Russian Revolution'.

Every experience I've ever had with a major American org, be it PSL, DSA, SALT, CPUSA has left a profoundly disappointing impression. They uniformly have no militancy, no coherent program for building power, and no pattern of success. Often, their strategy invariably finds itself expresses in mindlessly tailing the activist cause du jour, recruiting from liberal protests, then creating their own nonviolent liberal protests and book clubs to fundraise off of ad infinitum. Usually their electoral strategy involves endorsing the Democrats or trying to launch a presidential run for some figure with no national profile who receives 0.015% of the vote. At best they'll make a mild contribution to local tenant organizing on a micro scale. At worst, they're fed-filled cults run by sex pests. Anarchists, who lack the political organizing capabilities to accomplish anything of note, usually somehow lap these orgs in actual militant activity. At least they're capable of creating some minor property damage.

If this pattern isn't isolated to a single org but seems to infect the whole field of them, DSA, CPUSA, PSL, and so forth, then it's indicative of a structural problem. These structural problems of systemic uselessness seem to be pervasive well beyond just the United States. What's going on here? How do we fix the formula?

Genuinely, would we have better results in these kinds of conditions if our orgs were fully underground to begin with? I suspect that one advantage the anarchists have is the lack of a publically visible, legally sanctioned, easy to target organizational structure. Every fed knows the leadership of the PSL, or the DSA, and anyone who's ever paid dues, so there's a very strong incentive to stay safely within legal boundaries. Infiltration and cooption is painfully easy. On the other hand, the anarchist model is also obviously a failure, given that they simply function along lines of pure spontaneity without much coherent organization to begin with.

How dig ourselves out of this common trap, and the resulting malaise?

The ideal of democracy is always saved by comparing it to the horror word fascism, so no one has to deal with what democracy actually is, the perfected form of class rule. Its elections, freedoms and rights don’t oppose capitalism, they organize its smooth reproduction.

Retarded PBs can't see this because theyvve internalized the form of rule itself they only oppose features of class domination through the very constitutional, parliamentary and electoral mechanisms designed to preserve that domination. Their socialism ends where critique of the state begins. It's even funnier with "MLs" who minequote Lenin misunderstanding the whole basis and context of Lenin's fight for democracy, like he was actually fighting in democracy's stead and its appraisal, and not something to do with what early 1900s Russian proletarian movement was contending with.

Webm Thread. The old one seem to have disappeared.
Try to keep it to as much 'OC' as possible, including just things you cut yourself.
