I want to live in a nation where revenge killing is legalized where parents live in fear of their children where everyone just gives up on each other and treats each other like a lost cause broken down and defeated where cell ownership is the law where if a parent treats a child like a slave they are killed and the government and the society celebrates it because they want people to actually be free not slaves they don't value life they value Liberty it would be aspd friendly where people can be blunt gritty open and honest and as long as you don't violate the non-aggression principle you can do whatever the fuck you want but when somebody tries to control you they're violating in the non-aggression principle so you have the right to kill them

f I could use a spook to benefit myself interest and stop discrimination against me I will gladly do it because that's what egoism is to me doing everything to work in your own self-interest your own greedy selfish inconsiderate desires my egoism isn't fully based off of Max STurner it's based on the concepts that I've individually adopted so my egoism isn't traditionally egoism it's a personal interpretation of what it means

This book sucked. It's basically just whataboutism, non sequitur arguments and intellectual wankery (e.g. namedropping Hegel over and over again). It actually made me think that maybe there's a reason Stalin was demonized by post-Stalin USSR and that maybe Trostky was right. Idk why leftists recommend this book so much, it's embarrassing.

>look at le epic based anti-imperialism
>look inside
>kill gays because of “muh western-decadence”


Sorry Leftychuds, I don’t have masochism fetish letting them kill me and spreading reactionary ideologies, just because they are “anti-west”

Reading and fully understanding these two Stalin quotes are is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL. Anyone who thinks Socialism is about Rooseveltian trust busting of monopolies in order to restore petty bourgeois production MUST read and understand the first quote. Anyone who has ever uttered the word "campist" or has said something like "why would I support Russia against NATO or Iran against the USA? That's just inter-imperialist conflict!" MUTS read and fully understand the second quote.

90% of circular arguments on leftypol.org are caused by insufficient understanding of these two quotes.

Why has the glorification of heroism completely disappeared from contemporary society, and what effects do you think this will have for leftists?

I often times hear right-wingers make the argument that heroism has all but disappeared from society today. We no longer champion bravery, courage, conviction, determination, moral integrity, the ability to push through the tide even when the odds are stacked against you. These are all traits that should be greatly admired. As a kid, I remember watching films from the 90s like Schindler's List, Dances With Wolves, or even The Lion King which all emphasized this type of heroism. When I look at contemporary literature and film from the past 10 years I see none of this.

I often wonder to what extent a large part of this has to do with cancel culture, the #metoo movement, and now the Epstein files and their subsequent revelations. People who were once seen as heroic in some form or another are revealed to have been abusers, rapists, oppressors, etc. Think about how Noam Chomsky, one of the most beloved figures on the American left for the past 55 years, had his entire reputation destroyed after his Emails to Epstein were made public (I think back to how Norman Finkelstein said the first thing former leftists do when they become right-wing is attack Chomsky, because Chomsky is the epitome of a moral leftist or something). It's like we take it for granted that the people we love and revere are actually monsters behind closed doors. So the "answer" to this becomes simply: don't put anyone on a pedestal, don't admire anyone, "kill your heroes" lest your heroes be exposed as bad people.

I'm not trying to invoke the Great Man of History bullshit, but I thought this was an interesting topic to talk about. Does the death of heroism or "heroes" have any effect on the left? How are the left supposed to build morale if we reject heroism?

What do comrades make of Anatoly Fomenko and his "New Chronology" thesis regarding world history? Personally, I'm not even autistic enough for this crap. He makes many wild claims, that ancient history as we know it was entirely fabricated during the Medieval era (Phantom Time Hypothesis).

The reason I'm asking is because Fomenko is a hardcore Russian nationalist and many of his claims are clearly rooted in his Russian nationalist sentiments. For example, he claims Genghis Khan was akshually Russian. Also, he's one of the main people behind the Tartaria conspiracy theories (Tartaria is just WE WUZ KANGZ for Russians, after all). He published his work on the New Chronology in the mid 90s, when Russian nationalism was at an all time high and Russian morale was at an all time low. There are a lot of claims that Fomenko's theories are nothing more than ways of proving Russian legitimacy as the rightful owner to the entirety of Eurasia. It makes sense that a lot of Duginites love his works.
