Its clear to me that there is genuinely no possibility radical politics that is both effective while being mainstream, modern service economies in the first world have made such organising/educating so herculean that it's pointless and the surveillance state alongside the lack of any void of radical politics in the mainstream has made any revolutions that occur merely radical reforms
>Bangladesh'e spontaneous revolution against Sheikh Hasina just resulting in a more liberal government
The only thing I think is politically radical without being preachy to the average prole is being positive of suicide
<wait really?
Yes. Everything in our modern culture rebels against pro suicide messaging even when we were at the peak of "wokism", that truth held up. Telling people when it comes up in casual conversation (of course) that if life literally becomes too impossible that you'll just end it all is something that cannot be rebuked
>It's your own choice, anyone making moralistic arguments against will be painfully aware they're forcing their views on you
>It is a perfectly rational response to the current economy of stagnant wages, decaying welfare, 0-hour contracts and rent-based digital services
>Opposed to emotional suicides taken up in the height of the moment which is what most proles thing about
>Positions the injustice and lack of action by the masses as the forefront of your decision
I speak from experience since this has genuinely worked out well in radicalising coworkers and other acquaintances. This is all I can offer to the current issue the left face which is the death of mass politics as a whole. Id recommend reading Benjamin Studebaker, he's been a great help.

fuck yall im bumping this this thread out of spite

>>2357970
I dislike the way you phrase this point, better to just say "yeah I'm sorry that you're having such a bad time, the world is pretty messed up but maybe you can find meaning in trying to make it better"

>>2359322
You started out really good with class analysis but devolved into this suicide martyrdom. Shame really that you dont put your talents into better use but instead post schizo shit.

>>2359413
this is just a suggestion mate, of a radical conversation to give to other proles. its not martyrdom as much as it is something i emphase because of how much it transgresses modern capitalist values and thus draws them into question. the unspoken point here is obviously if you are a revolutionary you must not kill yourself because thats oneless person who could be doing anything for the movement
>>2359326
is this the person your speaking to saying this to you (royal you) or is its something you (the poster) is saying to me (op)?

>>2359413
also i do do shit irl, i dont even post here that often

I think it’s a myth that Mao single handed kill 80 million people that is a complete fabrication the healthcare system in the USA kill more people than any communist country ever did that’s my opinion though

>>2358303
>that’s my opinion though
Dude grow a spine and stand on that shit. What you said is an objective fact. There is hard research backing you up. The US healthcare system alone is a far greater crime than anything a socialist state has ever done. This is even more compounded by the billions who have been left to starvation, whose potential has been stolen by imperialism and exploitation, and the enslaved who not only had their lives stolen but their culture, language, and heritage would be stolen from them and all their descendants. On an objective level there is no comparing capitalism and socialism in terms of carnage. Capitalism in the stage of imperialism is the most brutal and inhumane system the world has ever known.

question for the oldhead users but was anticommunist propaganda always like this? just straight up slop and a fairytales based on pop culture depictions of old propaganda loosely based off real events? Even most serious liberal historians would look at your typical Mao ze stalin lenin killed a gajilion peasants as great man theory. iirc even Stephen Kotkin lsays holodomor wasn't some wicked plan made up personally by Stalin because those Ukrainians are just to speshul and individualistic. Didn't they at least have shit like the calculation problem and muh huemon nature back in the day? at least those are something that kind of resembles a systemic critique instead of what amounts to a grimms fairy tale abt how everything outside the western bloc is liek witterary 1984 guise so nevar question capitalism ogey. Maybe thats why they teach social studies instead of history in burgerland now cuz even a cursory understanding of the early modern period to now along with a brief section on why great man theory is hot dogshit would cause a decent amount of the USian superstructure to fall apart.


>>2358303
>>2359474
my advice for OP is prepare there own sources and then just ask whoevers making these kind of claims for theres, in my experience one of two things will happen
>they dont have any sources at and you can just point out how they're regurgitating anti-communist slop they don't even understand or know the origin of
>they do have sources and there either mainstream lib historians or the occasional reactioid(this usually happens if falun daifa or the ukraine is involved). If reactoid just shit on em for spreading around fascist propaganda if lib its more of a case by case basis
>they become legit upset at the idea that someone might actually ask them to back up there claims with evidence and provide no source, if this is the case just mock them as they are probably a /pol/yp

Mao deserves all the hate times ten. Easily one of the worst socialist leader after Gorbachov and Pol Pot.

Anonymity is an important part of imageboards. It's important for our freedom on the Internet. The problem is that anonymity has to be bought. Bitcoin has become speculative in the financial world. An asset hoarded by states. People don't understand the purpose of this crypto-currency. Even people who explain Bitcoin find themselves up against a crowd of people who understand that it's an innovation, but these people are going to buy it thinking it's a revolution. This is unfortunate… as they risk losing a significant amount of capital in order to achieve their pecuniary goals. Bitcoin has a supply of 21M BTC, the problem is that the network lives from the exchange of bitcoin. If it remains stored by people, the miners will not be able to make a living on the network. Admittedly, the problem may seem remote, but it can't be ruled out, and then the quantum threat looms over BTC: if it isn't resolved, it will be relegated to the rank of former cryptocurrency great.
Anonymity is an important part of imageboards. It's important for our freedom on the Internet. The problem is that being anonymous
For these reasons, which seem problematic to me, we need to move towards libertarian assets that are not subject to corrupt finance, as Bitcoin is. Monero appears to be a solid, clearly anonymous asset that outperforms BTC, which acts in decorrelation to it. What's more, it has a clear plan for its transition to quantum. Monero is bigger than you'd think: its assets have risen from around $65 in 2020 to over $350 today, demonstrating the relevance of this cryptocurrency compared with others. It's gaining ground, but I don't expect it to emerge as BTC's rival in the years to come. For libertarians, however, it possesses the qualities that would enable it to defeat speculative finance as well as the states - it's out of control, like the Anonymous group. As a result, it frightens the latter, since citizens the world over deserve this breath of anonymity in a world where everything has to be checked.

shitcoins are not revolutionary sybau 🥀🥀

It can help ya get HRT and move out when in a bad situation, but that's as far as I'd throw it. It's still very much a meme coin pushed by YouTubers.

I mined monero during the first day. That means you should create a personality cult around me.

I honestly think the world would be a better place if nazi Germany still existed to act as a 'white Japan' to counterpoint neoliberalism, there would be much less racial conflict and concern about degeneracy, infact it would probably encourage anglosphere and western Europe to fully embrace immigration and degeneracy because all the rightoids would just become wehraboos.

OP is just Bordiga's ass stained armchair.

>>2357017
it is childish understanding of the world to think that 'financial capitalism' would die with UK-USA
Germany would simply take over their fief and replace them
Bordiga just hated brown and black people sweetie

Ethics and such aside Nazi Germany was not a stable state
There is no world where they sit on their ass for nearly a century not instigating a global conflict
The entire root and foundation of their ideology was around conquering, enslaving and genocide with an unstable power structure that reflects such short sighted goals
They took out HUGE loans before the war, of which their only plans to pay it off was just invading other countries
Even if they did chill the fuck out, they'd probably have to liberalise just for a chance to not implode in on themselves. Also consider that a chunk of their ideology was also a return to agrarianism which doesn't necessarily lend itself to industrial dominance which could further exaggerate economic issues
IM like talking out of my ass here but I don't think the nazis as we know them existing all the way up to today seems like a very coherent idea.

it's so fucking tough because she's genuinely a good cousin and I enjoy her company, but it annoys me to deal with someone so close and mature yet so heavily brainwashed at this point in life. What are some ways I can aid her with disillusionment? She's heavily against corporations, so I feel like that could be a potential starting point for it

You don't get to convince reactionaries and the only point in arguing with them is to show normies how they're insufferable assholes.
Point out how what they want is various levels of "lacking compassion", "mean" and "hateful".
Most people, especially americans like to perceived as nice.

There is no aid. Her life will just get worse and worse.

Keep cordial relations with your cousin. Trying to debate or change her views will just piss both of you off. Shes going through her own political journey and may come around one day. You can respectfully disagree, but don't spend all day clashing over politics. I'm sure there are other avenues where you can find solidarity with each other.

It's probably better to sow seeds of doubt inside her brain using that one starting point instead of arguing and debating directly over Trump's corrupt, greedy & deceitful nature. Point out all of the corporate CEOs who backed Trump and the GOP and showed up at his inauguration, point out all the tax breaks they're going to receive from this big beautiful bill of his and how much taxes will be raised for the working class by that very same bill, and point out how many regulations to keep corporations in check have been neutered or removed by his administration and his Supreme Court thus far & how many more the GOP in the legislature are planning to water down or remove.

it's over, introduce her to pot smoking.

Alternative title: Why you shouldn't need to read theory to know what's up under global capitalism. Start doing populism you idiots.

Many here have taken issue with me in the past when I have said that 'in order for investors to get what they spend, the workers must spend what they get', or with my claims that this can explain:
- Capital Accumulation
- Boom & Bust Cycles
- Political repression of workers

I hope to expand upon what I mean by these statements and convince you of their truth, and thus show you that my argument is sound and based on trivial intuition, thus no need for any fancy theory.

First of all, on the simplest case. Whilst I do not generally approve of 'simplifying assumptions', here I think they are valid since I am making a monetary argument: I hope to show the logical necessity of the simple case, and show that the more complicated cases of our real world are simply emergent properties of this base case and do not invalidate it.

We will start with an economy that has fixed capital and four economic 'functions' an actor can take: To 'invest' the money one has available (by spending on productive assets), to 'spend' the money they have available on assets which are non-productive (though perhaps which are vital to subsistence), to work (which brings in income) and to receive income from investment. In the case of the investment function, it is obvious that the productive asset yields surplus, and that this surplus returns to the one investing. From our assumptions we see, this surplus must come from other actors in the economy.

Anyone who is familiar with Kalecki will immediately see where I'm going with this, and I hope it is obvious to you that no one will 'invest' unless they reasonably believe they can get surplus value from their investment, which means that everyone else in the economy must be, in aggregate, spending money into the hands of the one investing. This is in fact, Kalecki's basic two-sector model. Since the total capital flow in the economy must be made up of investment and consumption, then we say

well the dialectical and historical materialists argue that socialism is not possible before at least some part of the world passes through capitalist society. stalin even argues in his 1930s work on diaectical materialism that slavery was historically necessary to build up agrarian society. so it's less about debunking the arguments in favor of exploitation and more about explaining how forms of exploitation arises materially and then self-sublates through historical evolution of society
