>0 protestant countries with organic communist revolutions
It's truly over. Unless western culture is changed at the grass roots level AND THEN politically promoted, no communism will ever come to the west. You cannot build communism in a society where the "individual" is some weird fetish that is a fake parody of itself from renaissance thought of 600 years ago.

you had a higher chance of building communism in ancient egypt with the pharaohs as stalin then you do now in the west
Genesis 41:25-57
>>2377055>Christian American SouthI have seen more Communism from there than other places. In general, rural America is friendlier to communism materially than urban centers. Just don't call it communism and you are fine.
>government run grocery stores in republican villages
>USSRDoesn't exist anymore and they had to compromise with religion when nazis invaded. Also Brezhnev, also Gagarin was a Christian.
>PRC>AtheistIn the 60s sure, now it's a hodge podge of confusianism and lord knows what else.
>>2377047Yes but you have to take an immanent critique of the spirit of capitalism. I might also recommend Eric Weed's "The Religion of White Supremacy in the United States", Richard Chapman's "The Empire of Normality" and Harry Braverman's "Labor and Monopoly Capital." The popular religion of today is psy-science/eugenics which is a poorly secularized Calvinist replacement theology. The psyche being a social construct mostly created through the design of the means of production by the professional strata who study the workers. The psyche is the assembly line and the assembly line is God.
So how do we go about escaping the system from within? I have to be honest but Deleuze and Guattari's "Anti-Oedipus" completely filtered me. But I think communists in the West have to look deeper into work on critical psychiatry. So IMO it's really far from impossible. It just requires carefully unpacking the real subsumption of labor and ruthless jihad against the intelligentsia labor monopoly on knowledge production. It's odd but I think free software and copyleft is a start towards fighting the intellectual monopoly rents which form the material base of the psyche.
>>2377219Those are not counter examples.
They are copes.
>>2377047Idk what you're considering the west OP, but in western / central Europe the majority is either non-religious or not practicing their religion.
In Czechia most people flat out identify as atheists.
And it's a long lasting trend that one generation after another more people abandon religion.
Expect that trend to accelerate in a revolutionary situation.
Also the proletariat has no fatherland, "western culture" is a reactionary dog-whistle and you should leave.
>>2377055>Some people (like a certain Ca1eb Maup1n) claim that the Bourgeoisie are Satanists … Why should Communists oppose a Promethian figure that wanted to bring enlightenment and progress to humankindMarx was a personal fan of Prometheus iirc
Some of the LaRouche-adjacent types were kind of getting into that idea too (the LaRouchies consider themselves to be Promtheans in the tradition of the Enlightenment) but the analogies to a Milton-tier Satan might be too much for them trying to push Christcuckery at the same time.
>>2377281>>2377529I should have mentioned that I agree with Tkachov in that article. Also paraphrasing it. Just read the first paragraph and watch Engels seethe.
>>2377562I am more enlightened than any communist who thinks capitalism is a stepping stone to communism. It's the opposite. There have been 0 protestant/capitalist countries that organically switched to communism. They have all been non-protestant in some form. Either orthodox, catholic (lib theo) or asian (Kerala, China) or muslim (Yemen, DRA). Yes, Afghanistan became communist when the USSR didn't want them to because of feudalism bla bla. But guess what. The pro soviet afghan government OUTLASTED the USSR by like 4 months. Think about that shit. Ghani fell while americans didn't fully leave yet and Assad bailed out faster than anyone. But a feudal pro soviet afghanistan outlasted the soviets.
Listen here you commiekids.
>MODERNITY IS A CAPITALIST AND PROTESTANT INVENTION. MODERNITY HOLDS BACK ANY COLLECTIVIST ACTION. IT VENERATES THE INDIVIDUAL. ANY SUCCESSES IN COMMUNISM ARE IN PLACES THAT DID NOT HAVE MODERNITY DESTROY THEIR FABRIC OF SOCIETY YET.PROTESTANTISM LEADS TO MORAL INDIVIDUALISM WHICH LEADS TO CAPITALISM WHICH LEADS TO MODERNITY WHICH LEADS TO ANTICOLLECTIVISM WHICH MAKES COMMUNISM DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO ACHIEVE BECAUSE THE CULTURE IS RETARDED.
Why are retards so dense to understand this?
>>2377659lol, no
They were Catholics as well
>>2378081Too bad nothing ever happens.
Maybe they need a critical mass of white males to join their cause.
Someone should make an uncle sam poster with Xi face saying something deep and profound that would stimulate westerners.
SAVE US PRESIDENT XI
>>2377047>organic communist revolutions?
>Unless western culture is changed at the grass roots level AND THEN politically promotedpetit bourgeois moment
>>2378369I've done janitor work for a few tech companies, it's not that much of an exadgeration that they're prominent in tech. They're just not that wealthy because they do it where the cost of living makes that bigger number meaningless.
>millennial twitter usersGet off twitter, no one's exclusively on there anymore that's worth keeping up with. Even my grandma moved to bluesky after failing to figure out fedi.
>>2378755Uh actually op is right and you should give up and stop trying already
Even if op is right, we should be sabataging western infrastructure then
