What are your thoughts on the RCP/RCA/RCI? They seem to be the only communist group that's actively trying to organize near me but maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.

Such a mystery why Trot organisations are allowed to exist; alongside anarchists, but ML parties strangely enough are missing

>>2726734
That's because being an ML is political suicide, nobody is going to join the stalin simps after decades of red scare and le gulag archipelameme so all of them just started calling themselves troskyite

The US only had one Communist party with potential, which was the ACP.
The rest of the Communist parties are just glorified social groups out outcast freaks and autists that basically treat protest and selling newspapers as social activities. They are not seriously doing anything, they will never actually do anything because they have no real interest in actually taking power or representing people or engaging in serious politics.
ACP at least got the idea that they first need to build trust in local communities first and be a function that builds local communities which they can build off.
Too bad the ACP is run by another Muslim ""Communist"" who thinks Islam is AES and they think functional Anti-Imperialism is going around waving Russian, DPRK and Iranian flags while calling Putin based. Doesn't help that most ACP people I've talked to over recent years are just as insufferable, arrogant and have the same tunnel vision attitude towards constructive criticism as Tumblrite Leftards.
So no, the ACP fucked it as well.

I'm a troskyist btw. I like selling newspapers

>>2726858
That's some cool surface level insight you have on the ACP. Completely unrelated to this thread though. Especially since the US Section of the RCI is even more of a laughing stock compared to it's european counterparts.

MARXIST-LENINIST GENERAL
Founder's Edition
Esteemed comrades, revolutionary greetings.
This is a thread for Marxist-Leninist to talk among Marxist-Leninists. By that, we mean actual, real, complete Marxist-Leninists, not those who appropriate the heritage of Marxism-Leninism, but then proceed to denounce Lenin and Stalin from anarchist, left-deviationist and right-deviationist positions. Be not afraid to mercilessly bully the trotskyist, the leftcommunist, the anarchist, the social democrat and all the other saboteurs and lackeys of imperialism.

Hey /pol/. It’s come to my attention that a known Zionist music producer is coming to my town of Montreal this summer. The Alchemist is a known Zio who has produced songs for “Israeli” artists and even made an instrumental album a few years ago entitled “Israeli Salad” ;after a stolen traditional Palestinian dish). Him being invited as part of Montreal’s Jazzfest is a BLATANT violation of BDS. It is an insult to all the Palestinian musicians who lost everything in the genocide. I need help organizing something against this guy when he comes. I’m thinking a protest outside the venue but I don’t know how many people will show up. Any suggestions?

Note: Montreal has sone of the most trigger-happy cops in North America so I would prefer something that won’t get us into legal trouble.

Now that's just a straight up brain-dead argument. How many people in your country speak Spanish? More likely than not <1-2% of population, so throw out all the signs, shirts and banners about Cuba and LatAm and stop chanting "Viva La Revolución, Viva Che!"? How many Arabic speakers are there? None, so stop caring about Palestine and wrapping yourself in a keffiye. If you're not in an Anglophone country, stop using English at all. Stop caring about events from other countries all together actually.

<One Australian woman responded that she was proud of mateship and community spirit: "Australians are known for their friendliness, resilience, and willingness to help each other, especially in tough times."

<Australia's social programs were also mentioned by those surveyed — particularly Medicare. One man responded: "Free universal health care would be my #1 point of pride in Australia."

Dialectical materialism is bullshit because the world itself is not dialectical. The world is made of forces/particles that interact with each other. They bump in on each other imposing their wills, evolving and there is enough of them that sometimes they appear to be moving dialectically. Instead we have a world made up of difference, these differences do negate each other when they interact but instead affirm their differences.

Now inertial mass is the measure of the resistance of a body to a force acting on it. If I were to push a cart, the speed with which it will move and the increase of speed (acceleration) would depend on how massive it is. The more massive the cart, the less will be the acceleration when I push it. This mass, which measures the inertness or laziness of an object, is called its inertial mass.

The effects of inertial mass can be seen in several common place phenomena. If the train in which we are travelling suddenly stops, we are thrown forward. This is an example of an inertial force acting on us. While travelling in a bus, when the bus makes a sharp turn, we are thrown sideways. This is also an example of an inertial force acting on us. These inertial forces are seen to arise from the acceleration of our frame of reference. In science, some examples of inertial forces are centrifugal forces and Coriolis forces.

Newton’s theory of gravity says that the gravitational attraction depends on the masses of the objects. Here we are speaking about the attractive power of the masses. This gravitational attractive power of the object is called its gravitational mass.

The weight of a body is the result of the attraction of the earth on it. It expresses the gravitational mass of the body. We can measure gravitational mass by the weight of an object.

In 1890 the scientist R.V.Eotvos performed an ingenious experiment designed to test the ratio of inertial mass to weight. On the basis of this experiment it was concluded that the two masses, inertial mass and gravitational mass, are equal to each other within one part to 108 (that is, one part in one hundred million). Further experiments have improved on this result. So the equality of inertial mass and gravitational mass had been well established.

Einstein realized that the principle of equality of inertial mass and gravitational mass was to be placed at the centre of any theory of gravitation. He says in his autobiographical book The World as I see it: “This law, which may also be formulated as the law of equality of inertial and gravitational mass, was now brought home to me in all its significance. I was in the highest degree amazed at its persistence and guessed that in it must lie the key to the deeper understanding of inertia and gravitation.”

On the basis of this principle of equality of inertial mass and gravitational mass Einstein argued that there was no diffPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

We have seen that the field equations of general relativity do not rule out such diseases as causal pathology. You can have in the GR closed time-like curves. In order to avoid such problems, additional postulates are required. The root of this problem is the treating of space-time like a sheet of paper, or as a manifold. The manifold structure which treats space and time as equal, abstractly, gives rise to problems. It can be proved that the manifold topology is inadequate for avoiding such causal pathologies. Roger Penrose has shown that the Alexandrov topology does not pose such problems.

He has shown mathematically that the space-time described by the Alexandrov topology is free from causal pathologies. He shows that if the manifold topology does not suffer from causal pathologies, then the structure it defines coincides with Alexandrov topology. Conversely, if the manifold topology agrees with the Alexandrov topology then it is strongly causal (that is, there are no causal pathologies).(For details see DRQ)

To sum up this discussion, we can say that from Einstein’s work Minkowski constructed space-time through the process of abstraction, where the differences between space and time were ignored. We had an inverted structure where you could travel into the past, kill your own grandfather and ensure that you were not born, so that the original journey does not begin! Alexandrov, by recognizing the diverse qualities of space and time in concrete reality, reconstructed space- time on a material basis.

With Minskowski space-time was standing on its head. Alexandrov did to Minkowski the service Marx rendered to Hegel when he set his dialectics back on its feet.

According to the general theory of relativity, the final stages of certain types of stars can only be structures called black holes, with some amazing properties, that go against the principles of dialectical materialism. Some such properties are: of matter disappearing into a point, structures having no internal contradictory motion but only inward motion, or of matter entering a so called ‘event horizon’ from which no information is in principle possible to obtain.

Of all the laws of dialectics the central one is concerned with the unity and struggle of opposites and the corresponding category of contradiction. Astronomy provides ample examples of the operation of this law of contradiction in the processes of nature. One example is the constant working Post too long. Click here to view the full text.



This situation calls for the defence of dialectical materialism. In this case, we examine the postulates on the basis of which mathematics inexorably draws the conclusions about space-time around such an object. One postulate, of course, is that the general theory of relativity is absolutely valid even in the situations where matter is assumed to have densities which have never been dealt with observationally, and no occasion has been present where the principle of equality of interial mass and gravitational mass has been tested in such circumstances. Another postulate is the so called energy condition, which is at the basis of all the theorems on black holes. We shall not go into details (Please see DRQ). But let us take the first assumption about the absolute validity of the GR.

The Marxist scientist V.A.Fock had put Einstein’s general relativity to a detailed criticism. In 1959 he wrote a foundational book, The theory of space,time and gravitation. He showed how Einstein was mistaken in assuming the identity of the geometry of space-time with the physical gravitational field. By doing so he had reduced gravitation to a matter of the coordinate system, and technically the result was that in his gravitation theory there was no law of conservation, as in the case of electric and magnetic fields. Thus a gravitational field could be just switched off by taking up new system of coordinates. The identification of inertial fields with gravitational fields was also shown to be faulty.

From the point of view of mathematics, Fock showed that the number of equations in Einstein’s field equations (which is ten) was not enough to actually determine the structure of the geometry and the coordinate system. He also debunked Einstein’s belief that he had proved the equivalence of all frames of reference, including accelerated frames, which had made Einstein call his theory the general theory of relativity.

Drawing upon Newton’s theory of gravitation, where the gravitational field fades away with distance from the attracting body, Fock considered the case of island universes, with the condition that at infinity, the geometry should be flat. Hence there was a natural coordinate system, the harmonic coordinates, which held a cardinal place in the theory. With the four conditions for the harmonic coordinates, now the theory was able to determine the structure of space time associated with the gravitational field. He gave a new structure Post too long.

Everyone right now should be hoping and preparing for AI to be successful in replacing large amounts of knowledge labor. It will probably be the thing that genuienly kicks off the start of a true resurgence in the communist movement. 2008 revived socialism theoretically and planted the seeds of the movement to come. The post-war blip of high-paying white collar jobs in first world countries was in hindsight a historical blip and AI is setting things back to how they once were in a desperate attempt to save the rate of profit.

The conditions for it are really perfect. Displaced white collar workers are educated and socially progressive so they are unlikely to be swept up into right wing populism, unlike displaced manufacturing workers. They'll be forced into low wage and precarious work pushing down wages in those sectors.

Social Democracy isn't an option this time. Social democracy requires a large domestic manufacturing base to tax profits to fund a welfare state, in the age highly mobile, extremely liquid capital any attempt to fund a UBI will at first be met by intense fury by the capitalists likely killing it before it ever even is passed, and on the off chance it is passed you will see capital flight like never before. Additionally govenments are already up to their necks in debt so they cant fund it with deficit spending.

keynsian monetary policy by central banks would also have little effect, if employment is structurally lowered by AI then lowering interest rates doesnt bring back jobs it just makes credit cheaper to invest in more AI.

Fascism is also a much smaller threat then people realize, for aformentioned reasons displaced white collar workers are unlikely to be drawn into fascism, additionally the class base for fascism just doesnt exist anymore. Fascism was born out of the petit bourgeoisie ruined by the great depression, and the bourgeoisie allowed them to take power in order to crush the workers movements. While they succeeded in the that, it also led to massive destruction of capitalist wealth in ww2, so capitalists are going to be unlikely to want to give power to fascists again, additionally the modern petit bourgeoisie is weak and not a threatening force in politics like they were in the 1930s.

So if Social Democracy can't work as a compromise anymore and fascism is no longer possible then that makes the conditions for socialist revolution much more favorable in the coming decades.

LLMs and generative AI are not magic futuristic technology that will usher in a golden age, all they do is just turn massive amounts of stolen data into rearranged slop. The end-goal is to make it profitable, though they have yet to manage it. They want to replace all workers, cover the entire land in data centers, and turn anyone with a net worth under seven figures into biofuel.
You're not going to reach socialism from that.

the value of AI isnt created at the data center level, unlike a factory that produces goods is. Its created from the subscriptions and the cheap business services that AI enables. Taxing rent on data centers is capturing next to none of the value, and data center also employ very few people, no more than like 20 usually.

Hi comrades,

I propose we set up a fund, that leftypol can collectively put money into, and then we donate what we raised towards the Nuestra America Flotilla. Comrade Hasan Piker is also participating in the flotilla!

I know that for myself and many comrades Che and Fidel are heroes, it is important if we can help keep alive their legacies, and embrace the idea of the New Socialist Man (or the New Cuban Man) by showing comrades this humanity.

It is also important that the socialist exemplar that is Cuba which had sent many healthcare professional the world over during the Covid Pandemic, continues to show socialist governance as a model to many nations.

I'd advise sometime we set a similar thread for Palestine, I'd recommend 'The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East'.

It is likely best to be discussed here and on our matrix, where details finalised on the leftypol matrix and updates here too, so as to ensure comrades money can properly get sent across. If not, then independent donations can made, relevant links are down below.

So post in this thread to think how we can make this happen and join the matrix!
