What does this mean? Practically, scientifically, it means that we overproduce by 70%. Liberating the productive forces means liberating these 70% and using them for free time, recreation and scientific advancement. Liberating the productive forces does not necessarily entail more industrialization, as some would have you believe.

>>2876694
This what serious people mean by degrowth. Stop/limit all the overproduction made by big capitalists. Nationalists foam at the mouth cause they think it means eating bugs meme and thirdworlists foam cause they seriously think every westerner is rich and they do deserve "degrowth".

lazy morons
we need to produce a lot more, just not this consumerist garbage. communism is about accompanying and guiding the transition of the the still-chimp homo sapiens into the truly, fully sapient Homo Sovieticus .

how will Timmy CPUSAnon have his 196 Terabyte NAS full of questionable hentai hooked to his 12,000$ sick rig on 10Gb connection then? Think about that burgerboy

Socialism is not about altering the social relations of production, it's about using the state to make sure everyone is comfy and has enough to eat (but not white westerners because that's "treatlerism")

I've been thinking about drones, especially small FPV ones. Everyone talks about how its going to change warfare yada yada. But the really disruptive thing is that it enables individuals to target the ruling class much easier.

Think about guns for example. Before guns, you needed to have expensive armor, swords, shields, spears, bows and extensive training to be a lethal soldier. Only the elites could afford that, and that's why peasant/slave revolutions were not only few and far between, but they all were brutally put down quite easily.

Once guns came into the picture, the elites were not so safe anymore, and there came about a change in political structures to accomodate the masses more both politically and economically.

Now I think drones are another step in this direction. Indivuduals can easily build drones, and with advances in AI, then can just create a program instructing it to fly and identify a wealthy elite and kill them. With proper op-sec, someone can release a drone a mile away in a forest, set it on its kill path, and then run away.

The elites can be killed en-masse with the security forces having a very tough time trying to counter it and identify the perpetrators. Now all of this is theoretical of course, but technological acceleration is going to make this a reality much sooner than you think.

This is why I think the push for mass surveillance is happening. The elites are aware that there is a material change coming in the relative military power of organized armies and disparate dissident lone wolfs. Mass surveillance is the only way to ensure they can counter the lone wolfs.

>>2876680
You already have /AKM/ for your retardo violent fantasies.
Off you fuck.

using "elites" instead of class terms shows you to be a pre-fascist

> But the really disruptive thing is that it enables individuals to target the ruling class much easier.
Lol, you mixed that up. Innovation in general tends to lead to concentration of power, not distribution.
The reality is:
  1. a prole can barely afford a decent drone, he can hardly buy one anonymously when everything is tracked
  2. elites live in private mansions and can easily get their own air defense
  3. elites in turn can afford endless drones, swarming with ai and allowing for more advanced surveilance on the poor, like they already have traffic control drones in some countries, China is even testing arresting people using drones, in the Ukrainian war "surrendering to a drone" has been a thing for a while now, it only takes adoption for that to become a reality in law enforcement


>>2876680
Start by training in virtual reality so you get muscle memory how to steer the drone. Its quite hard until you have done it for couple of days. You dont need VR-goggles but having a proper controller is a must. After buying first drone and flying it outside try to avoid trees as rotors easily tangle in branches and it can get stuck there. Cheap drones have terrible signal so focus on having good connection.

Comrades, the absolute refusal on this board to engage in electoral harm-reduction proves that 90% of you have never actually read 'Left-Wing Communism': An Infantile Disorder.

Lenin explicitly argued that revolutionaries MUST participate in bourgeois parliaments to exploit their internal contradictions and expose them from within. Voting for the bourgeois center-left isn't "capitulation"—it’s a tactical maneuver to buy time for the working class while developing the productive forces.

In fact, if you look at how modern AES (Actually Existing Socialism) operates, tactical compromises with global capitalism are literally standard dialectical practice. Demanding total ideological purity while material conditions aren't ready isn't Marxism; it's just utopian anarchism painted red.

Material conditions don't care about your feelings.

maybe if strasserites weren't gay they would have taken over the NSDAP in the end and then boom AES, which is why I put forward the motion to ban the homosexuals from the DSA

I just feel like the vast majority of leftists don't live busy enough lives to have too little time to fill in some boxes every 2-4 years.

We shall establish state control over them to eliminate poverty and enable everybody to earn a “decent” wage. We shall establish “social and industrial justice”. We revere all reforms—the only “reform” we don’t want is expropriation of the capitalists!


>The national wealth of the U.S.A. is now reckoned to be 120 billion (thousand million) dollars, i.e., about 240 billion rubles. Approximately one-third of it, or about 80 billion rubles, belongs to two trusts, those of Rockefeller and Morgan, or is subordinated to these trusts! Not more than. 40,000 families making up these two trusts are the masters of 80 million wage slaves.

The position held by Marx, Engels, and Lenin is not to vote for bourgeois parties. Their stance regarding participation in bourgeois elections is to organize communist candidates within a distinct workers' party—independent of the bourgeoisie—and to vote for these communists, even if they have no chance of winning. Voting for the center-left is intolerable according to their writings, because doing so constitutes voting for a bourgeois party.

This is what Lenin is referring to here:

I would argue that a crucial demand is the guarantee of public employment—a measure that would easily attract many people, preventing them from being co-opted by reactionary prejudices and fostering solidarity among all workers by directly undermining the industrial reserve army maintained by capitalists. This includes the right to radical unionization free from the control of capitalists and the bourgeois state; mandatory unionization for all workers; wage equalization across unions to encourage joint struggle and discourage betrayal or co-optation; and the legal right for workers to defend themselves and one another in solidarity. Furthermore, any worker subjected to intense exploitation would receive compensation for unpaid time—covering the gap between their actual pay and the average wage—with costs and penalties levied against the capitalists. State-owned enterprises should compete with private firms across all sectors, offering low-cost products to drive private companies into bankruptcy so they can be expropriated, nationalized, collectivized, and occupied by workers. All pensions must be removed from capitalist control and established as public guarantees independent of profit motives, with costs covered by the capitalists who exploited the worker, backed by a government guarantee. All banks should be nationalized and managed by a workers' council to provide affordable credit to the population and incentivize cooperatives, nationalization, and socialization. Laws mandating fiscal responsibility must be abolished. A legal minimum wage must be mandated—determined annually by a workers' statistical commission based on local food prices and living costs. Finally, regulations must ensure that immigrant workers are paid no less than native workers, with any violations resulting in penalties—including back pay and additional fines—levied against the capitalist.

All of these measures serve to advance the class struggle and prepare for a revolutionary situation, while simultaneously plunging the bourgeois state into crisis and squeezing capitalist profits to fuel further conflict. Naturally, the intention would be to abolish private property, the anarchy of production, and social classes during the dictatorship of the proletariat, wherein the proletariat acquires political supremacy in order to socialize the economy.

Japanese 'Arab resistance fighter' Kozo Okamoto dies at 78
Okamoto joined two other members of the Japanese Red Army in an attack on Lod Airport, now Ben Gurion Airport, near Tel Aviv on 30 May 1972. The three men arrived on a flight from Europe before retrieving rifles and grenades from their luggage and opening fire. Okamoto’s two comrades died, while Israeli forces wounded and captured him. The attack, organised with the PFLP, killed 26 people, including 17 Christian pilgrims from Puerto Rico, and eight Israelis.

TRUMP II: Trade War Gone Global
Trump’s trade war is back—bigger, louder, and somehow even dumber. Some say it’s different this time. But like most sequels, the plot is familiar. The characters are worn out. The filmmakers seem determined to shoot the same scenes over and over again. How does it end? Probably a hell of a lot like the original. While in Trump I, he fired shots at big trading partners like China and Europe, in Trump II, he’s opened fire on the global order itself, and this time, the system shoots back.

The Party That Saved British Capitalism: Labour from Attlee to Burnham By Nikos Mottas Editor-in-Chief of In Defense of Communism
Andy Burnham's arrival at 10 Downing Street has, once again, been accompanied by the familiar chorus of illusions. Britain, we are told, has entered a "new era." A new Labour prime minister promises hope, fairness and renewal. Yet beneath the new rhetoric lies the same old reality. The faces change. The managers change. The class character of the British state does not. For more than a century, the Labour Party has fulfilled a specific and indispensable role for British capitalism. The Conservatives have traditionally defended the interests of monopoly capital openly and unapologetically. Labour has defended precisely those same interests under the banner of "progress," "fairness" and the "national interest." Whenever British capitalism has entered a period of political instability or social discontent, Labour has stepped forward as the "acceptable alternative," promising change while ensuring the uninterrupted continuity of bourgeois rule. This is no historical accident. It is the very political function social democracy has performed throughout its existence.

The most sobering part about revolution is knowing that common people cant do shit against a government unless the military or police defect or unless they have massive outside support in terms of funds, arms and training and even then they need broad popular support. This is the reason that if any country today went overtly fascist the individual will have absolutely no agency in deciding their own fate unless they flee the country beforehand and if the country in question is a global power not even that qill save you. If the state is after you, you cant fight, you cant run and you cant hide. They will get you where ever the fuck you go and you cant even hide a single second of your life from them if they decide to go after you with the ir resources. Every single one of us is literal property of the government and you not experiencing death/torture/mutilation/inprisonment/rape and much more is the mercy of those that rule you. Soon we will have mind control and quantum computing so not even your thoughts will be sacred anymore. Nothing you own including your rights, possesions and even body is truly safe.

What is your "hire me as a revolutionary" resumé?

>>2875017
Wrong. Soldiers begin to desert when the bourgeois state is in crisis—during a revolutionary situation that drives it to collapse. Prior to this, the vanguard has already guided workers in building popular councils and a workers' Red Guard; this Guard will absorb many of the deserting soldiers to form the Red Army. So, the specific mindset of the soldiers beforehand is irrelevant; by pushing the bourgeois state to the breaking point of collapse, the entire hierarchy of the standing army will disintegrate. There is no need to appeal to soldiers based on some idealistic fantasy; simply championing economic sovereignty, anti-imperialism, the socialization of the economy, and the democratization of the military—organizing it into elective popular councils so that soldiers are not separated or alienated from the proletariat—is enough to throw the bourgeois state into chaos. How many must die or be sacrificed is irrelevant to me; only the supremacy of the proletarian class—to socialize the economy and abolish social classes—matters.

Everything I have written was put into practice during the revolutions that successfully established the dictatorship of the proletariat, and that is enough for me.

I am not from the imperialist core; I have never lived in the First World. You are merely trying to use guilt to co-opt the masses in the imperialist core, fostering apathy and discouraging them from desiring power; you will be punished as a counter-revolutionary if you do not cease your opportunistic actions.

popular revolution is a brute force move and in the modern age it's just not feasible under a wealthy and powerful and well-established regime. if you want to truly fuck over the system you'll have to be far more creative than that.

Of you’ve followed recent news, then it’s not hard to see that an increasing portion of young men are turning to the right whilst the left is greying its hair. Part of the reason is due to the “4chan-ification“ of mainstream social media which, depending on whom you ask, is occurring either because big tech has found that the best way to retain young males is by turning their apps into 4chan, or because of the right-wing turn within the big tech cartel that has successfully lobbied the US government on its behalf for years on end, itself since as liberal democracy falters so fascism is unleashed to protect capital and part of it involves turning normies into chuds and wignats to prep them into war mode jingoism.

But something else is at play, and that would be how the left (especially left-liberals) has often adopted ageism for opportunistic reasons, whether it’s by dismissing the concerns of young men even when they’re part of their own electorate, belittling their opposition by infantilising them, or when they dismiss criticism of them by using adultist language (e.g.,: “Let the adults in the room speak”). Now, not everything I mentioned is exclusive to the political left, as plenty of rightists and centrists use the same tactics I mentioned. Nevertheless, it doesn’t do mainstream leftists any favor when they do it too out of political and rhetorical expedience as well as to dismiss opposition against them in facile ways.

But it’s not the elders who are at fault, as younger leftists are responsible for the current predicament by either validating these adultist beliefs or by remaining silent on it. An example of enabling would be ”puriteens” who will vociferously try to shut down any discourse on sexuality (even if it relates to that of LGBTQ+ youth) based on ageist premises, and they’re partly the reason for the resurgence of purity culture among zoomers.

And then there’s the obvious unwillingness within most leftists to challenge ageist laws such as the voting age limit and the current age ID regimes that are spreading across the world. So their inaction isn’t just enabling the oppression of youths, but that of everybody else as well.

I could list many other problems, but you get the point: If the left really wants to gain ground among young people, they should campaign for the self-determination of young people too, for…

**More images I couldn’t post because the site wouldn’t resize it. It mostly goes against the ableist logic used to deny self-determination to young people by the left under the excuse of “science”. Also applies to other dumb age limits like those for voting and entering into political office.

it's not a left or right thing, it's just how most people are when they get old, they become self-righteous and cynical and bitter and they resent the youth and they resent the world in general for changing in ways that they can no longer keep up with because their neuroplasticity has atrophied from age and living a stable privileged routine life and not challenging themselves or questioning their reality anymore. just as it requires more and more work and discipline to maintain a trim youthful physique as one ages, the same goes for the brain.

>An example of enabling would be ”puriteens” who will vociferously try to shut down any discourse on sexuality (even if it relates to that of LGBTQ+ youth)
uygha the "puriteens" you seethe so much are only ~1-2% of youth population and offline they're a non factor. Plus they clam up when you tell them the crackdown on sex stuff would affect the gay romance and smut they like.

I understand a regular strike; you deprive a corporation of income and customers until they meet your demands. Makes perfect sense. But what does a hunger strike accomplish? You're doing the equivalent of holding your breath until your parents do what you want, except the parents in this metaphor don't give a shit if you die.

It seems like a completely infantile form of strike that would never produce any results, and yet there are numerous historical examples of it being used by even prominent political figures, let alone the cattle class. What's going on here?

Comrades,

The revolutionary movement has always understood a truth that the imperialist mind cannot grasp, when a conscious revolutionary with a mass movement behind them approaches the final threshold of life, it does not signal defeat it ignites a chain reaction of liberated energy that shakes the foundations of the oppressor's order.

History provides us with irrefutable examples. When Comrade Bobby Sands and his heroic Irish republican comrades faced the imperialist gallows of British captivity, their conscious decision to sacrifice their physical bodies for the cause did not end their struggle it detonated it. Mass riots erupted, coordinated attacks were launched, and all sects of the Irish left and republican forces united in righteous fury. The same revolutionary phenomenon occurred when Greek anarchist comrades undertook their principled hunger strike against the bourgeois anti-leftist prisons, the masses responded in support with militant action, with street battles, with the unmistakable eruption of collective revolutionary will.

This is not coincidence. This is dialectics of human consciousness. This is the science of revolutionary consciousness in motion.

The Juche idea teaches us that consciousness is not an abstraction or divorce from Marxist materialism, it is a real, material force. Human consciousness, when forged through struggle, when tempered by the fires of class conflict, becomes a tangible weapon. Energy is real. The energy of the conscious worker, the energy of the revolutionary fighter, the energy of the masses united in a single purpose, this energy accumulates, concentrates, and when released, it transforms the objective conditions of struggle.

When a conscious revolutionary nears death, that accumulated energy does not dissipate. It is transferred. It activates. It "opens up the breach for future energies" The martyrdom of a single revolutionary, fully conscious of their role in history, fully aware that their physical body is the last weapon they possess, serves as a catalyst. Their sacrifice is immortalized, and it focuses the scattered energy of the masses, crystallizes the contradictions of the system, and transforms passive sympathy into active combatancy.

This is the revolutionary dialectic at its most potent, when forced into a corner, the conscious workPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Repression Intensifies in Bolivia with Arrest of Prominent Peasant Leaders
On Saturday, July 17, one month after the government in Bolivia declared a state of emergency, right-wing president Rodrigo Paz arrested movement leaders David Mamani, of the Tupac Katari Federation, who was in hiding, and David Quispe Machaca, of the Unified Confederation of Peasant Workers (CSUTCB). The government has accused both leaders of “terrorism.” This is the same argument the government uses to criminalize and persecute those who mobilized during the more than 50 days of blockades. La Izquierda Diario (Left Voice’s sister site in Bolivia) demands freedom for David Quispe, David Mamani, Vicente Salazar, and all those detained during the May and June mobilizations! Strikingly, following these arrests, the Bolivian Workers’ Central (COB) quickly published its call for dialogue with the government of Rodrigo Paz. Not only that, but the commission for reviewing and monitoring judicial processes is no longer even included in these discussions. It’s important to remember that the Paz government was able to impose the state of emergency thanks to the betrayal of COB leader, Mario Argollo and the National Executive Committee (CEN) of the COB, through their signing of an agreement on June 19. These new arrests come amid the escalating persecution that the Paz government is carrying our, thanks to the impunity afforded by the state of emergency. To date, the La Paz Departmental Prosecutor’s Office itself has reported that 114 criminal cases have been opened, 75 of which were initiated ex officio.
