why theory

Why is anarchism labeled left wing? Since it's literally the opposite of total state control, shouldn't it be right wing's paradise?

>>2497155
Because liberal centrism failed and people are looking for something else.

>>2502972
from the foundations of anarchism you get reactionaries like proudhon and bakunin who wanted to exterminate jews. later, bordiga says that many of the fascists were ex-anarchists and syndicalists themselves.

Does party serve the state or does the state serve party?

>>2503824
state power serves the party, and therefore the interests of the class that dominates the party, but from an outside perspective the party appears to be the state

Can an anon TLDR/W me on Bertrold Brecht?

>>2503824

The party becomes the state. A party may align itself with some ideology and overthrow the state with a successful election or revolution, but in doing so it simply becomes the new state and it inherits all of the same problems of the old state. The state isn't something that we plan and construct from a blueprint, it something that organically emerges from all the collective decisions we make as a society.

Why does everything to do with maleness have to be called a “system.” Is this actually a male thing?

“Sleep system” a bed
“Hydration system” water bottle
“Hair system” literally a toupee that’s it
“Thermal system” underwear

What the fuck is this crap. We have words for these things already. This is like a degradation of language from specific terms to general terms.

it's like how everything is a "community" these days

Whenever I take a shit why does it feel like all the shit doesn't want to come out? It feels like there's another shit log somewhere up in my guttyworks but it doesn't want to slide down the chute. What is happening to me?

Legit question:

Why does fascism take the form it takes?
Why the need of a dictator and blaming of minorities?
Why not just force people into submission by force? Force lower wages, more working hours, etc.

>Why not just force people into submission by force? Force lower wages, more working hours, etc.
cause the labor movement was massive back then, it could bring an economy to its knees, like in italy during the biennio rosso. It's not like under neoliberalism where capitalists could "peacefully" dismantle organized labor. they needed a force of violent thugs to do it, aka fascism

Where do babies come from?

>>2511349
It oftentimes takes the form of dictators because the main goal of fascism is to enforce absolute unity to a single will. If the bourgeoisie had freedom of disagreement, the petty differences between the bourgeoisie might jeopardize the fascist state. So it's best for stability to have one leader rule on behalf of the leading finance capitalists, who enjoy the right to advise him.
BTW there were plenty of fascist states that didn't have single charismatic dictators, several military juntas in South America didn't have single leaders or only got the single leader after several years.
>Why not just force people into submission by force? Force lower wages, more working hours, etc.
Every single form of governance in the history of humanity had to have a certain minimum level of either consent or tolerance of the people who lived under it. And every single state, even the ancient slave states, had to have a legal basis that appeared to serve a greater purpose, otherwise there would be a severe lack of police to enforce the system. The people higher in the system are understand exactly what they are doing, but they need more than just Party functionaries, they need police throughout the country. The Russian Republic didn't fall for a lack of security, it fell because the police and guard had no will to defend the state during the October Revolution. A fascist state can't brazenly state, "we exist only to serve a clique of the finance capitalist elite and we fucking hate everyone else," they have to say that the land of abundance is right around the corner to gain the complicity of the believing police and the tolerance of a decent percentage of the proletariat.

Heterosexuality.

Is party rocking proletariat? Is one allowed to party rock under communism?

Is this true?

I know Japan committed many atrocities in WWII. But in Indonesia, even though Sukarno was the face of the Japanese-run government, he was still popular enough to lead the independence movement when the Dutch tried to return. Doesn't that mean that the Indonesian people didn't see his collaboration with Japan as discrediting, and still saw him favorably after all those years of collaboration? Wouldn't that imply that they saw the Japanese occupation somewhat favorably, since Sukarno had been spending years acting as its face and was still liked?

Venezuela bros, wtf is this? Hugo chavez close confidant was a fascist?

Norberto Rafael Ceresole (August 1943 – May 4, 2003) was an Argentine sociologist and political scientist, who identified himself with Peronism, left-wing militias and the ideas of his friends Robert Faurisson, Roger Garaudy and Ernst Nolte. He was accused throughout his life of being neo-fascist and antisemitic[1] because of his Holocaust denial[2] and hatred of Zionism, Israel and the Jewish community. He was a close confidant of Venezuela president Hugo Chavez.[3][4]

Whoa…… chavez was… a diddyahhblud??? I love Machado and Guaido now

Yes, there were right-wing elements within Chavismo ,especially in its militarist streak. And? Why should I care about a lumpen-based movement that was macroeconomically brain-dead? I’m even loosely campist-adjacent, and I still can’t bring myself to support Venezuela given how catastrophically stupid Chávez and Maduro were.

Glowies really trying to convince people to support an invasion of Venezuela with the most inane propaganda possible
