Nationalism was born from liberalism itself, with the bourgeoisie forming national markets to destroy local cultures. Nationalist ideology was born by destroying the very local cultures of the internal peoples within a country, constructing an invented abstraction for the bourgeoisie to create the modern state.

Traditionalism offers nothing but being a useful idiot for finance capital, to then be discarded. All the nostalgia you feel is merely a refusal to see the development of current financial capitalism as the inevitable result of the decline in capitalist profit rates, which cannot be prevented. The past you fantasize about or wish to return to does not exist and never existed. You should stop clinging to illusions of seeing other workers as competition, believing in the discourse that Marx debunked in "Value, Price and Profit"—myths such as the struggle for higher workers' wages causing inflation—when the truth depends on the class struggle of workers in solidarity with one another as a class, and not abandoning another group of workers to be exploited more intensively by the capitalist.

Any separatism you fantasize about in the southern United States is not possible because the entire southern economy is integrated with financialized capitalist imperialism, and there is no national or regional bourgeoisie to carry out this type of separation.

All third-position groups were born from gangs and paramilitary groups that attacked workers with the police who organized against the interests of their bosses (hence the emergence of the Red Guard for the self-defense of these workers and their communities against the bourgeoisie and their henchmen). The very concepts of neoliberalism in current states have embryonic origins in privatizations (such as the privatization of German workers' pensions by private entities for speculation), the flexibilization of labor laws, and the purchase of bank dividends, which were carried out by third-position parties as a prototype of neoliberalism.

Everyone should serve only the supremacy of the proletariat to socialize the economy in solidarity with the wPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

League of the South?

I was too.

I ain't much of anything anymore because, as others have warned, anything you find on the left is every bit as fucked up as anything you'll find among Michael Hill's goons. Suburban kids, sexual deviants, and fentheads sitting around pretending they're black panthers. I was an Occupy Anarchist before I was a Southnat, and the Left has only gotten worse since those days.

I'm not much of anything anymore. At the end of the day, I just don't think most of the problems facing mankind have solutions. I guess I'm sitting with Jackson Hinkel and rooting for the Iranians, but even that's less a matter of conviction and more me hoping to see a System I hate bleed.

I could have been a good Hinklist, I think, but it's been very hard to take him seriously ever since Russia's quagmire and Assad's ouster. And I don't have as much hope as I want to for Iran. MAGA communism/internationism/third-worldism just feels like a cruel scam intended to give ZOG an excuse to kill brown people.

In my anarcho (and before that, lolbertarian) days, I imagined that as the empire collapsed the South would be abandoned by Yankeedom and becoming a land of hardy Jeffersonian farmer-survivalist types. In hindsight, this seems unlikely. More realistic is that someone after Trump would pull a Constantine and pull an Eastern Roman Empire in Atlanta. Southeastern Roman Empire.

I did eventually grow up an put away childish things. Dixie's never going to fight ZOG. Dixie IS ZOG. Rothschilds funded the Confederacy, and you can't fling a dead cat down here without hitting a Mason's Hall.

I think there might actually be some merit to the idea of anti-Fed Southern seperatism that isn't directly tied to the Old Confederacy.

Central Zoo, a cultural and emotional base for the people
The Central Zoo, a cultural and emotional base for the people, has improved its service environment, adding joy to those who visit.
Recently, zoos have been making use of connecting vehicles for visitors to ensure their convenience by normalizing operations.

Each vehicle, decorated like a flower cart, is decorated with the characters of cartoons familiar to our children, so anyone who gets on this connecting vehicle will find their childlike heart revived and they will be immersed in a cheerful mood.
The connecting car, which is designed to carry dozens of people at a time, provides service by traveling from the aquarium to the gift shop, and people can comfortably sit in the connecting car and view the wide area of ​​the zoo.
The unique garden landscapes spread throughout the zoo add to the joy of people.

The Central Zoo bears the marks of Comrade Kim Jong Un 's devotion to the people.
On March 11, 2014, the respected Comrade General Secretary visited the Central Zoo, which was being renovated, and instructed that the newly built structures, including the penguin house, should be constructed in a way that suits the ecological characteristics of the animals and that the convenience of visitors should be maximized.
He said that all the objects under construction, including the aquarium, should be transformed into pleasant places of rest that bring laughter and joy to the people.
The zoo's staff, upholding the will of the respected General Secretary , who takes a deep interest in the cultural and emotional lives of our people , are continuing to work to create better service conditions and an improved environment. (End)

A rally of young vanguard members to implement the decisions of the 9th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea.
A rally of the youth vanguard to implement the decisions of the 9th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea was held on the 10th at the Pyongyang Youth Park Outdoor Theater.

Comrade Moon Chol, Chairman of the Central Committee of the Socialist Patriotic Youth League, gave a speech.

The speaker mentioned that all young people should take to task the implementation of the new five-year plan, bearing in mind the fundamental ideas and spirit of the Party Congress, which aimed to consolidate the achievements of the struggle that pioneered the era of comprehensive development and to lead to even higher results.
He mentioned that he cherishes as the greatest honor the great trust of his respected father , Marshal Kim Jong Un, who put forward the youth as reliable forces who will shoulder the future destiny and future of the Party, the revolution, the country and the people , and that all youth league workers and members should fulfill their mission and duty as the Party's reliable advance force and wing unit.

He said that we must continue to build up the momentum that has responded to the Party's call with a fierce wave of petitions, make leaps and bounds on the difficult and arduous fronts of socialist construction, and continuously create new miracles and feats in every great upsurge.
All speakers appealed to the public to redouble their courage and the honor of being the youth vanguard of the great Kim Jong-un era , and to vigorously display the spirit and dignity of patriotic youth in the struggle to realize the new prospective goals pointed out by the 9th Congress of the Party.

There were resolution discussions.
At the convention, an oath to respected father , Marshal Kim Jong- un, was adopted.
Then, the torchlight march of young students began.

The vanguard of every revolution has been disaffected intelligentsia. Despite how much Lenin praised the proletariat and how much Mao praised the peasantry, they never would have accomplished anything without the educated and underemployed. If masses of intelligentsia lose their jobs, that is a very good thing for revolutionary potential.

>>2729193
Sure, but the Western left has no shortage of intelligentsia.

I do imagine the "UBI" solution could backfire by giving potential revolutionary classes enough leisure time to organise instead of being perennially exhausted

The mode of production switching is what galvanizes revolution. The Marxists of the past were doing wishful thinking that the mode of production was switching earlier than it was in reality. But now with the rise of AI the mode of production is absolutley switching and the more superfluous the working class becomes it diminishes the exchange value that underpins all hirearchy. The bourgeois is outnumbered vastly by the proles and once all their monopoly money becomes worthless nothing can stop their destruction.

>>2727175
Couldnt these be doumbfounded expectations based on the fact that AI is currently the biggest financial bubble in, at least, recent history? I am asking honestly here. Certainly, there are a lot of piggies who really want that graph to be real, so i suspect that there is a lot of capitalist hope and optimism influencing these prospects

How could they be allied with both Assad and the USA. All of this was completely predictable. I've been telling you that allying with the US was not going to be a path to a longterm socialist project, but Rojava stans didn't want to listen. Now the US is throwing away Rojava like a used condom.

Now their only path is working with Pershmarga(which will require giving them more authority)

'Salih Muslim was a revolutionary for the Kurdish cause'
Yesterday, Salih Muslim, a member of the Co-Presidency of the Democratic Union Party (PYD), was martyred in a hospital in Erbil. His friends and relatives spoke to our agency.
Deputy Co-Chair of the Kobanê City Council of the Kurdistan Region, Mizgin Xelîl, expressed her condolences to the family of martyr Salih Muslim and said: "Yesterday, a national figure reached the level of martyrdom, we were saddened by his martyrdom. We extend our condolences to the people of Kurdistan and the people of Rojava, to the family of martyr Salih Muslim."

Mizgin Xelîl stated that Salih Muslim was always in the struggle for the cause of the Kurdish people and said: "Martyr Salih was in the struggle and resistance despite his advanced age and never abandoned the line of resistance. Salih Muslim fought for the unity of the Kurds his entire life. Everyone should support his cause."
Co-chair of the Kobanê Civil Society Organization, Nebo Temo, stated that it is not enough to mention the work of martyr Salih Muslim and said: "I have known Salih Muslim since the 1990s. From that time until today, he has been working and working."
Nebo Temo said that Muslim had educated himself on the philosophy of Leader Abdullah Öcalan and said: "We must also uphold the legacy of the martyr Salih Muslim and continue the cause he set for himself. Salih Muslim was the father of martyrs and was himself a martyr."

Comrade Salih Muslim Ahmed Pir said he was proud of Salih Muslim's martyrdom and said: "In the personality of comrade Salih Muslim, we see struggle and resistance for the Kurdish cause. When one looked at him, one's heart ached for freedom and one was happy."
Ahmed the Elder promised that he would be Salih Muslim's successor and said: "We will fulfill the dreams and aspirations of comrade Salih."
Salih Muslim's relative, Muslim Muslim, also said about the struggle of the martyr Salih Muslim: "We opened our eyes. Salih Muslim was in the movement and fought for the Kurdish cause. He spent his life in struggle and fought for the rights of the Kurdish people until the last moment of his life, and his dream and ambition was the freedom of the Kurdish people."

accelerationism had its revival moment from 2017-19 that was largely driven through unconditional accelerationism aka U/ACC (Vince Garton, Edmund Berger, Xenogothic, Vast Abrupt, various other blogs) and was less concerned with questions of praxis than with trying to develop on the analyses of the CCRU and early Nick Land for the current evolution of technocapital that had confirmed (and continues to imo) a lot of the predictions of the early theorists who would later be called "accelerationists". one of their main critiques of "left accelerationism" is that it didn't really manage to overcome the transcendental miserablism (http://hyperstition.abstractdynamics.org/archives/008891.html) that started to afflict the left after the collapse of the USSR and that L/ACC has always been an idealistic capitalist realism desire to go back to the good old days of centralized state planning instead of engaging in critique about why it didn't work while also being in denial of China's success in using the market to develop the productive forces within a socialist economy (hence the famous Nick Land quote "Neo-China arrives from the future").

acceleration-ism was always a flawed term because it implied a doing-things-ism ideology that completely misunderstands the nature of capital as a world-historic process that no single person or group of people is in control of. even in the case of China, its use of the market within its economic model (the "bird cage economy") specifically is designed to not try to control capital but to simply contain its antisocial excesses. it isn't that we can simply choose to accelerate the development of technocapital; it is simply the nature of the process for it to accelerate as a positive feedback loop.

>t. one of the U/ACC originalfags who was there for all this

>>2733259
Mark Fisher has a quote somewhere that I haven't been able to find for years where he describes the R/ACC people like late Nick Land and NRx as being essentially the ideologues of capital who are being used by a process that they don't understand except in an idealistic ideological sense and I think this has only become more true today as we've seen the terminal stage of capitalism mutate into a kiPost too long.

>a kind of technofeudalism that is just an updated version of fascist corporatism
honestly looking at things i sort of lowk think that corporations are the real revolutionary subject somehow or some shit idk. capitalism when it gets developed enough in the first world seems to want to turn into corporatism every time. we dont even know where corporatism really leads necessary since we have only seen the fascists and nazis annihilate themselves through a war where they underestimated how powerful the ussr was. maybe someone needs to write Das Gesellschaft or something
>which is why Thiel famously said that competition is for losers
that is the fundamental error in accelerationist, pro-capistalist, and marxist discourse. they elide the fact that no capitalist actually wants capitalism. capitalism is not about profit but controlling more production than everyone else. if you are actually competing you hate competition, you just want to dominate everything, and crises are a great way to rock the boat until all of your competition falls away. actually i think there might be a deeper reason why thiel might hate competition due to his influence from girard .. if we look at 'Battling to the End', we see girard point out quite intelligently how capitalist exchange and competition is a sort of sublimated form conflict. the issue is that as exchange intensifies, this leads to increased tensions between nations which inevitably lead to war. if we think about it, imperialism is not simply the conflict between bourgeois nations but also a conflict between bourgeois themselves. if they can even sabotage the national bourgeois's productive forces, then they have gained from the interaction. if the frontier of imperialism is somehow pushed to its limit, we will see western corporations sabotaging each other more directly through violence (as opposed to the many more covert ways they have hitherto attempted mutual sabotage)

>>2733273
Very good post. Not gonna lie, I liked the manifesto of Srnicek and Williams, and I think they had a legit critique of the post-left/The Invisible Committee, but let's face it, their solution was not very different from the kind of things Yaroufakis already talked about, demsoc with more machines. They didn't inherently solve any problems.
Vince Garton and Edmund Berger wrote pretty interesting things even if a lot of it went over my head. As someone who didn't study philosophy in college, that era of shitposting felt exciting as I was seeing people trying to develop new ideas and engage with the present. Nowadays it feels like we have stagnated, r/acc predictably got a relative victory, and we are back to watching the shitshow unfolds with our old ideas. The problem of accelerationism is that it remained pretty descriptive, while a cascade of unforseeable events kinda changed everything, it became harder to keep up ironically.

>>2733333
also something to add: this is actually the unintuitive absolute genius of the chinese communist party. it is not simply that they are stopping the market from doing things that are anti-social, they are preventing capitalists from trying to annihilate capitalism hence forcing them to continue accelerating the productive forces to continue competing
