guillionaire, n.
Pronunciation: /ˌɡɪljəˈnɛə(ɹ)/, /ˌɡiːjəˈnɛə(ɹ)/
Etymology: A portmanteau formed from guillotine n. + trillionaire n. (after billionaire n., millionaire n.).

Definition
  1. Slang (chiefly derogatory, political).
A hyper-wealthy individual, specifically a trillionaire or multi-billionaire, whose immense wealth is viewed by critics as exploitative, unethical, or a direct symptom of extreme societal inequality. The term is heavily associated with anti-capitalist rhetoric and populist movements advocating for the radical redistribution of wealth.
  1. Historical/Symbolic.
An individual targeted for economic or social ruin (metaphorically "executed") due to their extreme financial status, often referencing the historical use of the guillotine during the French Revolution against the aristocracy.

Quotations
• 2021 Twitter 14 May: "If the wealth gap keeps widening like this, we won't just have billionaires anymore. The age of the guillionaire is coming, and it won't end well for them."
• 2023 Jacobin Style Mag. Oct. 42: "The tech moguls of today have transcended ordinary greed; they are guillionaires building private rockets while the rest of the world burns."
• 2025 Radical Economics Q. III. 115: "Taxing the guillionaire class out of existence is no longer a radical position; it is a baseline requirement for democratic survival."

>You completely miss the forest for the trees. That is only true from a narrow and partial aspect of what's at play here. It's forgetting Stalin's simultaneous perspective that class struggle were to be "over" after the liquidation of the kulaks and some cloistered intraparty purges, isolated from the wider populace. These political mistakes blahblahblah The entire point is for these collective farms to be temporary and then made state-run with time as the state matured and became capable.
That is exactly Stalin's position? The farms aren't yet properly integrated into the plan. There is still buying and selling between the farms and the state and so labor values continue to regulate things behind peoples' backs to some extent.

Only putting Mlm as THE communist movement seems to me the most reductive way to see history in the last decades. Specially since is another boat drowining in a sea of nothingness (writing this as the Cuban capitulate to the gringos for the X time in the decade and the chinese "sociailism with markets TM" is the only horse winning the race)

>elon musk as of may 2026 has a net worth of 788 billion dollars
>elon musk has roughly $455 for every second he has been alive

classcucks will say he "earned" that. lmfao. that every second of his life, his genius brain innovates 455 dollars into his pocket.

can a person really "earn" that much or can they only get lucky and maybe also position themselves properly in a fundamentally exploitative system? some of you will no doubt answer that he "earned" it for the sake of provocative contrarianism

The anarchy of production is a problem of rent, not profit. It's completely solvable within the capitalist framework, just nationalize department 2 (articles of consumption).

>>2838099
doing even cursory research into Mossmorran would tell you that it was built in such a way that it directly pumped ethane to a processing plant owned by a different firm but as part of a single integrated system. with that plant closed, it was not physically possible to send the resulting surplus ethane elsewhere. the physical problem was not that it couldn't "sell" gas to a "customer", but that it could not process gas into the kind of form that could be given away. the customer in question was the processor!
(the processor subsequently closed and the plant was hooked up to the UK's national gas grid, so now you could give it away)

>>2840383
there weren't other processors they could give it away to?

>>2840448
ethane is only one of many commodities that comes from the gas fields. if you want the other stuff, you have to get ethane as well. they burned ethane to keep the production process for everything else going. (you could think of it like a coal mine producing a lot of non-coal rock, if you like. a coal mine that throws such rubble away instead of selling it isn't "overproducing" rock, it's just getting semi-useful junk as part of the coal mining process)
before mossmorran they used to just flare it at sea!

>>2840449
there were other processors but no means of physically transporting the gas to them in the short-medium term. no pipeline or tanker-filling connects existed, the only output was directly into the nearby processing plant.
(something that makes more sense when you remember ethane is just a byproduct of getting at more valuable stuff)

A general to compile all news, articles, essays and info related to the Greater Middle East-North Africa region.

Creating this general in an effort to centralize all the info that currently gets posted to 5 different threads concerning conflicts and developments in the MENA region. Seeing how slow they generally are and at risk of getting bumped off besides the Palestine thread and that it’s likely people interested in Yemen, Syria, Iran, Sudan and Palestine are likely also interested in news and info from across the region I think it would be useful to post everything in one place.

This will be the inaugural edition to see how it goes. Welcome!

‘Commune organization constitutes a fundamental pillar of our system in Maxmur’
Speaking to ANF, Maxmur Democratic People’s Council Co-Chair Nüdem Yaman provided information about the activities carried out by the communes within Martyr Rustem Cudi Camp in southern Kurdistan (northern Iraq).

Drawing attention to Kurdish leader Abdullah Öcalan’s “Call for Peace and Democratic Society,” Nüdem Yaman stated that following the call, the people of Maxmur Camp have been acting on the basis of Öcalan’s ideas, philosophy, and the system he proposes.

<‘The commune is a fundamental pillar of our system’

Referring to the commune system envisioned by Öcalan, Nüdem Yaman stressed that commune organization constitutes a fundamental pillar of their system.

“Leader Öcalan always emphasized the following: ‘Why are communes important? Why do we focus on communes? What level should the communes reach?’ Through his books and manifestos, the Leader has presented this as a way of life to all peoples of the world, especially the Kurdish people,” she said.

Recalling that the commune system has a much deeper historical foundation than capitalism and hegemonic structures, Nüdem Yaman noted that over time the commune system had been distanced from its original essence and added: “Leader Öcalan wants the commune system to return to its true essence. The very meaning of a commune comes from gathering together; through it, society comes together and discusses its problems. History also provides examples of this. One of them is the Paris Commune. Although it did not survive for long, Leader Öcalan benefits from its experiences and adopts them as a guiding line.”

<‘The People’s Council began reorganizing the communes’

Stating that the Maxmur People’s Council launched a process aimed at the education, organization, and reconstruction of communes following Öcalan’s “Manifesto for a Democratic and Communal Society,” Nüdem Yaman explained: “A process of approximately three months was carried out. During this period, homes were visited in order to organize the communes, and discussions were held with the people and with individuals. Discussions were also conducted with experienced and elderly members of society. Eventually, neighborhood meetings were organized, local administrations were elected, commune centers (komîngeh) were establishePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Given the factors you would consider relevant within your region: local, national, surrounding geopolitical climate, etc… What policies could a party active in that region–currently existing or otherwise–work towards that both you would either agree with or critically support, and believe would be popular in said region?

Bonus:
  • What factors did you consider when answering the above?
  • Do you know of other regions with similar conditions, and would your answer be the same if you lived there? If not, why?

What is the likelihood of the contradictions of capitalism accelerating to such a bad extent that another American Civil War breaks out, specifically before 2030.

And if it were to happen, what would be the leading factions, would there be a revolutionary party disciplined enough to overthrow the capitalist class during the internal conflict, and also, would it just result in an even more extreme fascist takeover?

Has the Iran accelerated the process of civil war?
Is the 2028 election gonna result in civil war?
Will a economic crash happen before it?
Is Trump gonna attempt a self-coup on the government that causes a civil war?
How will the DSA, CPUSA, RCP, Antifa, Trade unions, etc react to it?

Highly unlikely, civil wars are always started by elites and there's no internal "barbarian army" that can take advantage. A civil war is not the only way a country can lose its hegemony, it can just go out with a whimper like the USSR or become less relevant like Britain.

Civil war is fun doe and maybe i can establish a trotskyist republic in califonia if it happens



 

What's the solution to the problem she explains in the video? The western left is not simply doomed but the problem posed by having a CIA approved version of marxism mudding the waters needs to be solved somehow.

I think they're not mutually exclusive we should wage class war on all political fronts but we shouldn't have any illusions about individualism, mutual aid, unionism, reformism and parties, no one can emancipate labour other than labour itself, purity will only result in sectarianism and armchairism

>>2838595
Because the larpers know that participating in elections would actually be a clear metric that would show how disconnected they are from the working class when they get 0.5% of the vote lol.

If you notice, the larp and sect left never have concrete measurable goals for anything they do. Their whole modus operandi is diffusing ideology which literally can't be measured

Nobody reads Lenin and everybody is a liberal.

See being a communist is not determined by "your beliefs" or by what you read, that's a liberal understanding. Being a communist is about your actions.
It doesn't matter if you're a theory buff, if you do not ACT communist then you are a liberal, that's hwhat.

Lenin tells you what TO DO and why to do it, it's the reason he's essential no-skip reading. Mao also helps with that. Log off and go do stuff, stop being a liberal NOW!

>>2839688
Ok? But if there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, and that is the only choice afforded to workers under capitalism then I may as well live as an apolitical normie but with the knowledge that the whole system is rigged.

>>2839688
>Lenin tells you what TO DO
No he doesn't. Reading Lenin literally without understanding his historical surroundings and the people he's debating will net you a bunch of contradictory and inapplicable positions

>The American economy is geared to the world market, of which it requires an increasingly larger share as U.S. capital expands. If this share contracts — and it is bound to contract, should more nations turn away from the American-dominated world market towards a kind of "second world market" which restricts, or excludes, the exploitation of less-developed nations by the developed ones — it will force the internal American development into isolation and in the direction of a state-controlled economy.
Is this prediction basically in the process of being realized given the present conditions of multipolarity and the fact that the American economy has been running on state-subsidized tech bubbles? Does anyone have a statistical QRD of this tendency at hand?
