Neglect of optics on the left? Anonymous 21-12-25 23:07:47 No.2608087[Reply]

I'm asking sincerely, how much of a problem is this? Most people are not class conscious and reactionary politics based on vibes is extremely common. I present as fairly "socially traditional" in my personal life while still being a progressive and my politics have surprised many people I know due to their associations with "the left", that being some variation of the "blue haired feminist (or trans woman in 2025)" or whatever boogeyman they have. Being a socialist does not mean what it means to me for these people.

While I obviously find it laughable to not base your politics on material factors and don't subscribe to socially regressive sentiment myself I still feel worried about how much impact this could be having on the movement. I don't know how you would deal with this though because I don't think promoting reactionary politics within the left is a good idea but large swaths of people who will definitely never read theory are also being alienated due having socially regressive views that clash with the "vibes" they're getting of the left, regardless if they're true or not. There's of course also the other side of this where people who are clearly liberals identify as "socialists" due to their own associations with the left and social progressiveness while also never reading theory which makes organizing IRL harder (I have personal experience of this honestly).

Maybe there's some kind of "class reductionism" (despite being used as a derogatory term by some) one could adopt but I also don't know how you'd do that properly since reactionaries weaponize optics anyway.

It's not about the adventurism in itself but you do in fact need to look tough, cool and have the potential for violence = vitality & collective empowerrnt. We are not in 1910 where material conditions defined most of politics, not in the post-welfare threats first world at least. Rightists understood this decades ago.

After the kidnapping of Maduro Trump has been mask off about imperialism, unlike Bush he hasn’t said “Oh this is for the good of Venezuela” he has just said “Oh they have oil and we want that oil for me and my pedophile oligarchs to make super-profits from.” There is no way that any population of any country would want to be treated this way, even if there puppet governments do.

Focusing on our hemisphere is hardly "anyone anywhere". The capture of Maduro was absolutely a show of force more than anything else. They left the government in power, have no boots on the ground (for now), have no intent of putting opposition in power (for now), and Trump said he didn't intend to cut off oil flow to Russia or China. This administration is retarded and all of the aforementioned conditions could change at the drop of a hat.

Trump Brags About Imperialist War in Venezuela and the New “Monroe Doctrine”
We have to fight back. Already, working people across Venezuela are rising up against the United States’ imperialist offensive. Here in the United States, it is urgent that the working class fight against this neocolonialist offensive, and say, “not in our name.” Unions, social movements, and the Left must mobilize together against imperialism; but it must do so independent of Maduro’s government that has undermined, with authoritarianism and austerity, the capacity of the Venezuelan working class to resist the current imperialist offensive. This is evident in the thousands of political prisoners from the Left and working-class sectors in Venezuela who should be on the front lines in the fight against U.S. imperialism. Maduro has been responsible for negotiating with imperialist powers to ease sanctions, but always within the confines of economic subordination, while blocking the working class from building itself as an active class with real power.

DP World
>According to Middle East Eye: “The UAE’s allies, including Israel and the US, have been instrumental in creating and expanding these bases. Israeli officers have been deployed on the islands, and Israeli radar systems and other military and security apparatus enable the UAE to monitor and thwart attacks by the Houthis—the Iran-aligned group that has fired missiles at Israel in solidarity with Palestinians and targeted ships traversing the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.”
>The UAE and Israel also maintain a joint intelligence-sharing platform known as Crystal Ball, which “designs, deploys, and enables regional intelligence enhancement” in partnership, according to a promotional slideshow.
>“The relationship between the UAE and Israel was very developed even before formal diplomatic relations were established, but it was kept quiet. Not secret, just quiet,” said Alon Pinkas, an Israeli diplomat who served as an adviser to four foreign ministers, in an interview with Middle East Eye.
>DP World advertises operations in ports or facilities across several African countries, including Angola, Algeria (Djazair), Egypt, Mozambique, Rwanda, Senegal, and Somaliland. In October 2023, DP World added the massive port of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania to its portfolio.
>The BBC reported that details of the $250 million deal first surfaced in July, provoking opposition criticism that it “violated Tanzania’s constitution and endangers national sovereignty.”
>These concerns are clearly valid. The likelihood that Mossad and the Zionist military are neither integrated with nor actively operating at these bases and ports is highly remote.
>This UAE-Israel axis sometimes acts as a satellite of US power but now also pursues its own expansionist interests (as in Socotra, or power projection bases, such as South Sudan and Somaliland).
>These interests can also be seen in the aggressive lobbying used by the UAE to pursue its own interests in the US and UK.

Practically speaking what's the difference between Marxism and Anarchism? Both as Lenin puts it require "Smashing the State" its just under the guise of Marxism the state will be rebuilt to be dictatorship of the proletariat run by armed workers with goal suppressing the bourgeoisie so they can head towards socialism. While with anarchism when the state is smashed they do not rebuild it and instead head straight into socialism. But I would argue that both large scale anarchist projects, Anarchist Ukraine and Revolutionary Spain, reestablished the state in the form of the dictatorship of the proletariat. It's just anarchists didn't call it state because to them a state is a highly centralized organization with a monopoly on violence, with both projects being federalism as opposed to a centralized body. But to Marx the state is a tool for one class dominating the other. It seems the main disagreement between mainline Marxists and anarchists is semantics.
