/leftypol/ - Leftist Politically Incorrect

Why is it that Islam, not Communism, remains the last bastion against imperialism?
And it can also be argued that communism was never anti imperialist to begin with because the Soviet union helped establish Israel, invaded Afghanistan and so on.

Is Islam the only true anti imperial creed?

I hear RCP people say that they are training professional revolutionaires
Wtf is that man I have read a shit ton of theory
They also say the job isn't to just gain membership its to make a harden vanguard

Why do ziggers - who are socially rightist (Russian ethno-nationalists + homo/transphobes) and economically rightist (supporting Putin's oligarchy) - constitute a privileged class on LEFTYpol?

I made this without a hint of irony.

I like natural rights, Leninism, Hoxhaism, and my philosophy is heavily influenced by Mishima.

And there is nothing you can do about it.

Does anyone remembering all those communist meme pages on Facebook in 2015-2018? I had a philosophy meme page that would just post vaguely leftist content and existentialist memes, until it petered out in 2019. I used to be an admin on this page too and got kicked out by some ecelebs like Pierre Trudanke.

Does anyone else think the whole "NVE" thing that popped up a year or so ago is a dedicated psyop? It came completely out of nowhere despute the fact that violence with obscure motives has always been a thing yet recently all the news outlets are drumming about it and acting like its an ISIS tier threat. Is someone trying to start a new satanic panic or is this a way to make political attacks look likejust mentally ill people schizoing out?
Plus they dont even know what nihilism even means.

So, I'm about to become a manager's assistant, and hopefully after some time a manager proper, which is to say – in classical ML lingo, – I'm climbing the ladder from a productive worker's position to that of an overseer, which inevitably means that in terms of objective class positions, I'm moving from the run of the mill prole to one that is in service of capital, namely, my new function will essentially be to ensure an optimal production process, which inevitably involves neat things like "keeping the workplace clean" but more importantly, heightening the rate of exploitation, etc.

Yet, I'm a fucking communist. And I need this new position, I desperately need a better wage, so I took the job without a moment of existential crisis, or whatever.

So I would like to axe you guys if you've faced such a dilemma before, and how you resolved the contradictions between the individual and the social, meaning still being a fucking communist, yet having to order proles to "properly" submit to the rule of capital, WHILE trying to maintain… sanity…

On the one hand I feel that I earned this position through my blood sweat n' tears: I was always among the best workers, no matter the job, and I differentiated myself from the rest by delivering the highest quality product, doing it the fastest, being reliable and punctual, etc. Just so it happens that this particular company noticed it and said, "Hey, we need this guy," or, "Hey, what about this guy for this position?"

On the other, I understand – to a degree – being called a "nerd" or an "asslicker" behind my back by my fellow proles. To their criticism (or parody, morelike) I would say that I'm simply not "built" in a way that I could ever possibly do the absolute minimum at a job, so that I get paid what everyone else AND not get fired. It's just not an option for me, on a subjective level. Even at my most boring conveyor-belt job, while working, I was constantly thinking about the work I was doing and how to improve my speed, agility, whatever, while I saw my fellow conveyor-slaves dreaming about whatever, or talking about how the company provided dinner "better be good this time," or whatever. (And I'm not blaming them, tbh. It's an alienated existence, but I think there are cracks and there's luck and then you can break through.)

I'm an intense person, an intense personality.

First major victim of radical liberalism?

I've personally approached marx from a more economic perspective and I was surprised to see that some authors treat Marx as primarily a philosopher rather than a social critique.

From the few bits and pieces I've read on it, their work seems completely irrelevant and stuck in philosophical qualms with no relation to the real world. The hegelian interpretation of Marx reads as a bunch of messianic and idealist garbage that Marx would've condemned.
But what's /leftypol/'s opinion on the matter ?

I hope these guys win the coming elections in Israel.
Because no matter who wins the elections, the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians will continue. If one of the liberal Zionists wins they will spin somehow to make it seem less evil. With these two they won't be able to pretend that they're not genocidal freaks. Thus hastening international intervention.
I'm totally accelerationist in this regard.

What do you think of this?
