Prediction (pessimistic): The US government will be overthrown, not by "social fascist" DSA members or by "True marxist leninists" (they don't exist since they are an impossible standard for a westoid to meet) but actual fascists like patriot front or proud boys. The US government will triple down on ethno-nationalism but will recede from the world stage. "Multipolarity" will bloom but will prove to be a farce. "Free trade" will collapse and all countries will be forced to become "self sufficient". This will lead to a period of basically universal Juche style self reliance mixed with ethnonational zionist kibbutz style "socialism." Neofeudal schemes will tie neo-peasants to agriculture since countries will be forced to produce surplus, but neo-peasants will double as neo-proles through digital office jobs. Basically they will grow crops for the state but also be responsible for digital maintenance of statistics. Hyper surveillance will prevent people from hoarding or hiding what they produce. Climate change will make everything harder to grow, the end of free trade will mean that all countries become isolationist and produce for themselves, and ethnonationalism and hyper surveillance will create a self reliant neofeudal national socialist dystopia in each country with its own characteristics. Each country will become an open air fallout vault. Transhumanism and gene editing will result in speciation of humans into several new sub species meant to specialize. Mind altering substances and technology will be used to enforce obedience, and transform pain into pleasure. This will entrench artificial castes and turn life into a hell disguised as heaven.

You are more likely to have a Bonapartist/Putinist takeover before you see the patriot front ever getting power in the US

Imma be honest, yeah, communism as we know it has been reduced to an aestethic. Nobody really cares anymore about eating the rich. Very few countries have independent bankies systems, and those that do are unlikely to survive 20 more years. The rise of the DSA is just more stupid fucking idpol ragebait, there's no need for actual oomph, actual rioting like we saw in 2020, when you can just put on a keffiyeh, walk up to cop, and farm views as they punch you into the ground. It brings the same value as larping as a nazi or a satanist. It's fucking madness

Bonapartism is completely alien to the US and its political culture

Israeli occupation forces detained Palestinian journalist Mohammed Awad during an early-morning raid on his home near Ramallah on Wednesday, as the number of Palestinian media workers held in Israeli custody continues to rise.

In Christian village of Taybeh, Israeli military order fails to stop settler violence
Local residents documented fresh settler attacks on several families east of Taybeh on Tuesday 11 August, including the Naif al-Kaabneh family, who have been subjected to violent assaults in recent days, despite the decision to close off the area under the pretext of protecting Palestinians. Taybeh is a predominantly Christian Palestinian village in the West Bank, and its residents rely on agriculture, olive groves and olive oil production, among other sources of income.

July 27, 2023: Idiots, No Longer Useful by Boris Kagarlitsky
“They can, but we can’t.” We had to repeat this for many months, when left-wing and liberal oppositionists were detained and sent to trial for the mere word “war” uttered in connection with military operations on the territory of Ukraine, while Igor Strelkov and his associates criticized words of the military leadership, complained about defeats at the front, and talked openly about the terrible state of affairs in military units. Of course, they got away with it because they did not question the very need for military action. At first, Putin was not called by name and was not directly scolded. The government was reproached only for not being severe enough. With regard to Ukraine, they strictly adhered to the opinion that a country with such a name should not exist. But everything has changed. On July 21 at 11:30 they came for Strelkov, FSB officers detaining the founder of the Angry Patriots Club. Earlier, charges were brought against retired colonel Vladimir Kvachkov, another well-known member of the Club. He is to be punished for discrediting the Russian army. Angry Patriots can justly be accused of aggressiveness and bloodthirstiness (and against the background of his comrades-in-arms, Strelkov is even one of the most moderate). Yet their main problem is not with their views per se, but in their monstrous political naivety and economicPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Why does the left not focus on cooperativization rather than nationalization of industries? If we did manage to replace every company with a cooperative, would that not still be some kind of proto-Socialist position, albeit with markets still intact?

China and Cuba have been quietly expanding their coop sectors if Richard Wolff is to be believed

Anyways, half of this question should be answered with a history book in hand, but I dont have that data. But regardless, iirc there are many academic studies that show cooperatives can be more competitive than regular firms. In principle it makes sense, since a pyramidal system with some random dude at the top and different layers of PMC at the bottom seems less rational than an actual board of administrators that can check and balance each other and which are subject to change in case of failure.

Yes but the moment it is actually building up the state will put down it's boot on your neck.

We're allowed some coops to use as proof that there is some economic liberty present, the moment it means anything else it's bonebreaking time

>>2891048
Market competition itself creates winners and losers; the logic of debt and profit inevitably recreates capitalist conditions. The Yugoslav experience demonstrates that this leads to conflict between cooperative managers and the workers within those cooperatives—who may blackmail the rest of society by manipulating prices and pressuring the state to relax regulations, thereby facilitating exploitative dynamics that restore typical capitalist relations. Furthermore, there is the conflict involving the many unemployed and indebted workers from failed cooperatives who require constant state intervention. Another issue is the rise of nationalist opportunists who exploit the individualism fostered by competing cooperatives to deceive the masses. A crisis is inevitable; just as the Proudhonists in the Paris Commune—through the very process of practice—transformed into Marxists and spontaneously abolished the cooperative market, a similar shift toward economic planning occurred within the CNT-FAI in Catalonia. This proves that there is no stable state of competing cooperatives; such a situation inevitably generates conflict that leads either to the restoration of typical private capitalist relations or to the nationalization and coordination of these cooperatives under an economic plan designed to meet the population's needs and ensure remuneration based on labor, free from competition.

>>2891277
You are overlooking the fact that bank nationalization is a crucial requirement for a successful communist revolution, according to the critiques Marx leveled at the Paris Commune and all revolutions that established the dictatorship of the proletariat. If a country possesses the means of production—moving beyond backward peasant farming—then the nationalization and socialization of all industries, natural resources, energy, transport, communication, land, housing, healthcare, education, childcare, pensions, technology, and food supplies become necessary; or, at the very least, it is essential to end competition among cooperatives in sectors that cannot yet be fully socialized due to technological limitations or isolation.

Because the professionalization of the army wasn't as widespread.

The 3k are never going to become communists. Out of the 30k, a good chunk might. See the difference? Different material conditions means also different theory you dumb bookish nerd. Muh comintern.

Under the proposed reform, spies working for Germany’s foreign intelligence agency, the BND, could carry out acts of sabotage, conduct offensive cyber operations and pursue more aggressive espionage operations. Until now, those spies have been limited to information-gathering operations due to intentional restraints put in place after World War II to prevent a repeat of the abuses perpetrated by the Nazi spy apparatus.

Hospitals push for upfront payments as patient deductibles and out-of-pocket costs rise
Medical providers are collecting larger shares of what patients might owe at a time when rising deductibles mean patients are owing more for care. The preservice charge could be all or part of a remaining deductible, for example, or a sizable percentage of what the visit or treatment might cost. Those deductibles go up when hospital prices, drug costs, and labor expenses increase, as insurers try to slow premium growth by shifting more costs to patients.

Fidel Castro at 100: History Has Absolved Him!: Nikos Mottas Editor-in-Chief of In Defense of Communism
It is against this background that Fidel Castro’s stature comes fully into view. The Cuban Revolution was not the work of one man. Revolutions are made by masses, through organized struggle and under concrete historical conditions. But denying Fidel’s exceptional role would be as absurd as reducing the Revolution to his personality. He became one of the giants of the revolutionary movement of the twentieth century not because history granted him some mystical quality, but because his life became inseparable from a revolution that overthrew Batista, confronted the Cuban bourgeoisie and U.S. imperialism, defended socialist power through extraordinary trials and placed a small Caribbean island on the side of peoples fighting colonialism, apartheid and imperialist domination across the world. Nor does Fidel need to be transformed into a saint. Marxism has no use for saints. He made mistakes; the Revolution made mistakes. Policies were corrected, experiments failed and contradictions were sometimes underestimated. The decisive historical question is not whether errors occurred, but which class interests were being fought, which power was being defended and in which direction Cuban society was struggling to advance. That question remains decisive today.

The black panthers were LARPERS like any other maoist leaning group, but they were so good at LARPING that the neocon government believed them, and killed them. I believe LARPERS eventually get cointelpro'd, back then, and now, because the government is based on right wing lies, and being disconnected from what it means to be a leftist, and the LARP of the left fufills the fear fantasies of the right-wing idea of what it means to be leftwing. antifa is a huge example.

The thing with the "oligarchic world" is it's extremely easy for both state actors even at their weakest point or just lone wolf types to litteraly kill said oligarch and their family therefore to submit them, and they are well aware of that. I mean look at what Putin did.
Nobody is actually ready to die for Elon Musk or Peter Thiel, they can't buy honor and fidelity just mercenaries, nobody was even really ready to die for Walt Dysney and Henry Ford and these guys were actually geniuses.

It doesnt matter if Trump is a retard if he want he can litteraly ask his supporter both in the civilian population or the federal agencies to murder wathever billionaire he dislike and theyll do it and hell get away with it, likewise for a lib president. The power of the oligarch is extremely fake and gay, there's a reason Tyler Robinson freaked them out so much recently to the point of implicitely backing down on their RW signaling, they litteraly did nothing as a response for a reason.

I remember reading this book which had graphs on Maoist industrial development showing it was actually the beginning of the "economic miracle" the counterrevolutionary state had, and that the country had modernised in the Maoist era. I'd like to find it to cite, but I don't remember the name and I didn't have a pdf in my computer library that has those details exactly nationwide, so I had to resort to a book by a liberal historian called Chinese Economic Development by Chris Bramal, that has some of the statistics (especially when it comes to human development), but not the industrial statistics. It is a good book but it is not what I am looking for and it is limited because it is liberal history not socialist history.

Could anyone help me find the book I am looking for?
