liberalism is historically progressive if you live in a feudal system with monarchy who hoard wealth instead of doing the Marx commodity cycle of re-investing to buy new industrial technology and so on.

having a beard is masculine. The feminization of men by the PMC has to stop. Look at the working class anywhere in the world & they have beards. Even some of the women. Think about it.


The PMC are still wage labourers and therefore working class. Many have their interests aligned with the ruling class of course. But this is no different to religious retards who will defend the King at all costs.

Maintaining discipline is in many senses easier when you've got access to the carrots and sticks that governing the second most populous country on earth gives you. You cannot reward good behavior in a British party by putting someone in charge of a prefecture of eighty million people. You cannot punish good behavior in a British party by sending the person responsible for some "hotel style treatment". Fundamentally you're taking a gang of weirdoes and putting them in an environment heavy on opportunities for ego trips and weak on opportunities for basically anything else.

There is a massive competency crisis across UK politics. I'm not saying there are no lessons to learn, but if you think the answer is to simply duplicate a structure designed for a party of one-hundred million members and applying it to a party that would be lucky to get 1000 members, you're off your rocker. That would be inappropriate even for what, the 8,000 who survived the Long March. A small scale organization can take only very general advice from a large one.

That's before we even get into the issue of whether there should be a party - I'm of the firm opinion that a party is doomed before basic competence is established via other means. Someone used to emphatically make the point that until the left can run a lemonade stand, nobody should start any parties because they're much, much easier to fuck up.
If you can't sell lemonade, it doesn't matter what line you take or what your party structure is: you have a roleplaying org at best and a cult at worse. If you want to make a CPC roleplay society, that's great, have fun, but just be honest about it. Then nobody can laugh at you for wearing the uniforms and instead of debating whether the spirit of the sewell convention has been maintained, you can put the gang of four on trial every weekend. (Organizing such LARPs would, ironically, be better training than setting up a "real" org.)

p.s. I will maintain to my dying day that Oikophobia is a meme that fails to engage with modern conditions. If I hate Keir Starmer it is because he is utterly foreign, not because he is similar.
p.p.s. The left and center-left already basically appeal to the working class. (it helps that being a counter culture casually wins over young people! purely aesthetic do-nothings are much better than party-founding do nothings!) to make it appear otherwise you have to massively massage the Post too long.

reminder that he surmised that socialism will likely come about in advance western countries because they had the most advance productive forces and he was writing the communist manifesto with that in mind.
he even says
>These measures will, of course, be different in different countries.
this means that the development of the socialist project in a post colonial agrarian countries will not be the same as socialist development in advance western countries. marx's view is not actually rigid as often claim, he mainly gives direction and a method call dialectical materialism. by the end of his life, he even allows for different starting points and uneven development, with his writings in his letters on russia.

when china established a dotp with the founding of the PRC in 1949, it was still agrarian and technologically backwards and far behind the west. its industrial output was tiny and like 1% of its population would even be considered proletariats in the marxist sense. so mao's central goal was to build a strong industrial base that is necessary for socialism in marxist theory as well as modernize society by improving living standards and urbanization.

by the late 1970s, the prc did achieve some basic industrialization and improved the quality of life for its people with a dramatic increase in life expectancy and literacy. however, china still remained overwhelmingly rural with subsistence farming being the norm. there was still limited connectivity between rural areas and industrial centers. most people were living in extreme poverty and they were far behind in living standards to the west as many did not have access to electricity, running water, or modern healthcare.

according to historical materialism, the capitalist phase is considered necessary before socialism. marx even admired capitalism, not morally, but as a historical force in its ability to revolutionize the productive faster than previous modes of production. he also says,
>The bourgeois mode of production is the last antagonistic form of the social process of production but the productive forces developing within bourgeois society create also the material conditions for a solution of this antagonism.

Regardless of the fact that under capitalism cops tend to be corrupt, violent, fascist pricks police abolition is complete liberal insanity.
Under capitalism there won't be magically less crime just because less cops or even no cops are in the streets. What you're getting instead is IRL Gotham city with lots of private "law enforcement".
Oligarchs would massively invest into private security and private military units meanwhile middle and lower class plebs in metropolitan sprawls gets driven into the arms of organized crime for "protection". Private insurance companies certainly can't wait to offer protection contracts for PMC.

The other irony is that the elephant in the room IS trauma, but the issue is that many people self-diagnose with C-PTSD because they conflate any impression of subjective trauma whatsoever with C-PTSD, even though C-PTSD has discrete biophysical markers in terms of the effect it has on the permanent alteration of your brain structure. I have been formally diagnosed with C-PTSD and I can attest that the nature of it is crippling enough at times that there's a very stark contrast between the histrionic PMC zoomer types claiming to have it and those who really bear the burden of having it. The upsetting and disappointing thing is that when there's an oversaturation of people making this conflation, those who really suffer from the condition are overlooked or assumed to be just like all the rest, when that couldn't be further from the case. I don't believe that we should put the cart before the horse in individualizing the priority of generational trauma, but I do think that a proper communist politics will, in a downstream sense, naturally sublate away some of the sociopolitical barriers which hamstring the people who are authentically suffering. From each according to his ability, to each according to their need… and potentially, these attributes can change in the context of a less atomized/alienated society which is more focused on resources of empowerment.

I'm convinced the only reason people choose to ignore it at this point in time is because there haven't been any wide-reaching societal consequences beyond a few school shootings. In the early 20th century when this same thing happened it lead to the rise of fascism, as a generation of young men felt screwed over by the world and wanted to get their revenge on everyone that had wronged them. Liberalism is very bad at dealing with problems before they become socially destructive. They just pretend it doesn't exist and then say "how could we have let this happen??" when angry disaffected unemployed young men with zero future prospects are committing acts of mass violence on a large scale.

There's also this mentality that for men to "receive" any kind of help would require "taking" something from women, so women are like, intrinsically opposed to acknowledging the crisis for fear of losing what they have. Not all women are like this, but the "girlboss" liberal democrat PMC type women that write all the articles, control all the academic journals, etc pretty openly oppose it, like >>2576002

Anyway today I was trying to google around looking for information since that anon earlier asked me to prove my point, and literally every result is deliberately either scrubbed of any gendered language or redirects you to talk about mass shooters and domestic violence if you try to get very specific with the queries. Very few media outlets outside of the far-right nazi factories are willing to engage with the issue head-on, and I think this is deliberate. If only nazis are acknowledging incels then incels will be drawn towards nazi beliefs and start developing a persecution complex from being constantly gaslit about their experiences.

Another PMC down. Very based.


honestly the more i read about PMC, labor aristo, intelligensia, etc whatever bullshit the more i realize how little is actually said despite how much the western left, in particular the "online" left, is utterly fucking fetish-tier fascinated with this element of analysis.

"A section of the workers are…capitalist supporters! because they're…bought off!" over and over and over in so many different ways. Like that's it. That's the entire theoretical grounding of so much argument. The rest of it is trying to turn a dial to see what percentage of the population that is, and using sheep entrails and statistics cooking to get whatever answer you want.

There was an American ex communist named James Burnham in the 1940s who wrote a book called The Managerial Revolution where he predicted that the people who we now call PMCs would lead us out of capitalism, instead of the bourgeoisie or proletariat. Someone on here told me that George Orwell's 1984 wasn't merely an allegory for what Orwell imagined Stalin's USSR to be like, but an attack on James Burnham's ideas as well.


>The Ehrenreichs defined the PMC as educated professionals who historically did not work in corporate environments, such as doctors, scientists, lawyers, academics, artists, and journalists.[6] In a 2013 follow-up, they estimated that in the 1930s, PMC occupations made up less than 1% of total U.S. employment, but the share had risen to 24% by 1972, and 35% by 2006.[7] In that same essay, they argued that the notion of the PMC as a collective grouping was "in ruins" due to economic shifts in the 1990s and 2000s which changed their professional prospects. Some members (such as highly qualified scientists) "jump[ed] ship for more lucrative posts in direct services to capital"; others (such as lawyers, tenured professors, and doctors) found themselves in increasingly "corporation-like" workplaces; while others still (like those with backgrounds in media or the humanities) "spiral[ed] down to the retail workforce", unable to parlay their skills into higher-income jobs.[7]

>The professional-managerial class (PMC) is a social class within capitalism that, by controlling production processes through occupying a superior management position, is neither proletarian nor bourgeoisie. Conceived as "The New Class" by social scientists and critics such as Daniel Patrick Moynihan in the 1970s, this group of middle class professionals is distinguished from other social classes by their training and education, typically business qualifications and university degrees,[1] with occupations thought to offer influence on society that would otherwise be available only to capital owners.[2] The professional-managerial class tend to have incomes above the average for their country, with major exceptions being academia and print journalism.[3]

rural is more pro-cpc than the city dwellers according to harvard studies because they're seeing more rapid transformation in recent times.
>The responses from survey participants in rural areas, however, surprised the researchers, particularly over time. “We did not anticipate how quickly both low-income citizens and people from less-developed regions in China closed the satisfaction gap with high-income citizens and people from the coastal areas,” Cunningham added.
>The surveys found that rural residents, generally poorer than those in cities, had more optimistic attitudes about inequality than their wealthier urban counterparts. The team’s analysis ties the closing of this satisfaction gap between rich and poor, as well as coastal and hinterland populations, to several policies including local budget spent on healthcare, welfare and education, and paved roads per capita.

while, the export-oriented manufactruing model that prevailed in the 90s and 2000s resulted in prosperity in key export urban regions like the Pearl River and Yangtze River deltas, there's been a post-GFC shift to domestic housing and infrastracture which started to spread development more equitably to the interior of the country outside the coast export process regions.

china's regional disparity has been shrinking for the past two decades due to targeted poverty alleviation initiatives.

fujian was the only coastal province among the top 10 fastest growing the past decade but no coastal province was in the top 10 in the past two decades. from 2010 - 2023, rural disposable income/capita 4xed, while urban disposable income/capita roughly 2.5xed. and it's not just income, world bank paper shows how “in-kind” health & education transfers are a major form of socioeconomic redistribution in China as well

In absence of a real worker's revolution that allows the working class to benefit from the immense increase in productivity via technology, depriving the world of your labor is the most revolutionary act you can achieve.

Socialism is nationalist ideology, Bernie said "Trump is right to do ICE raids to deport people who dare to speak Mayan language on settler occupied land".

I would rather see them resolved than develop into heated controversy—despite, I think, a not very generous letter that appeared over his signature and Mr. Williamson Evers's signature in Liberty, the Massachusetts Libertarian Party publication. That letter grossly misrepresented my position on Marxism as being a "necessary ideology." That's archaic, to say the least. I regard Marxism as the most sinister and the most subtle form of totalitarianism. There are people, of course, who profess to be libertarian Marxists. I believe they mean very well, and I even write in their periodicals; but I write very militantly that I regard Marxism as a very subtle form of what I would call the totalitarian ideology—all the more subtle because it professes to advance the notions of freedom.

>The median voter has completely incoherent politics. 8/16 btw

I think that's more a reflection of the incoherent politics of the political and pmc classes. Their politics are nonsense for ideological and structural reasons, and that prevents them from engagjng with the "median voter" (whatever that is) in any meaningful or constructive way.

Like, I've been polled by these people before and they a priori reject any idea or sentiment that falls outside of "do you prefer a, b or c." So take the example of the Democrats right now that are trying to grapple with their second loss to Trump. Everything outside of their bourgeois ideological bubble points to "you lost because you didn't offer people any material benefit and even cut back what was already there," and the response from these ivy league scholars is "we lost because we aren't killing trans people." Anything looks insane if you're viewing it through an insane lens.


In the context of the USA, to move away from the "99% vs 1%" left populism and the "nationalists vs. globalists" right populism, you need to not only break down false consciousness and instill class consciousness, but you must emphasize proletarian supremacy at each opportunity, and explain why the proletariat specifically, and not the petty bourgeoisie, nor the PMC, nor the labor aristocracy, nor the lumpenproletariat, nor the incarcerated, nor the marginalized, must lead the movement for its own liberation, the class struggle, and not simply "the 99%" which will inevitably be an interclass affair led by the petty bourgeoisie. This is a serious hurdle in the US where people still to this very day look at you like you have 6 heads if you invoke anything other than "lower/middle/upper class" framework or "99% vs. 1%" or "nationalists vs globalists" or other such hogwash. These are still fancy european pretentious terms to the burger. You must make them commonplace.

The world economy has been liberalized, so they are just gonna want their piece of the spoils when your economy starts failing.

I understand where your sentiment is coming from due to the horrific barbarity of the Zionist Genocide of Gaza, but if we step back and take a long view of History from a Dialectical Materialist perspective, you realize that the reason the Zionist Genocide of Gaza feels so unique is primarily because it has been so much more fully documented by Primary Sources then past Genocides that were of equal or often much greater Scale and Barbarity, due to the existence of the Internet, Social Media, and 24/7 Cable News, as prominent examples of past Genocides carried out by various Settler-Colonial and Fascist States since the rise of European Colonialism include the Holocaust, the 1943 Bengal Famine, the Congo Genocide, the Irish Potato Famine, the Transatlantic Slave Trade, and the Native American Genocide, just to name a few, and if you apply your logic to its obvious conclusion, you would support the collective punishment of most European Nations/Ethnic groups (not just Western Europeans like the English, French, Dutch, Germans, Italians, Spanish, Portuguese, etc, but the Russians as well, due to the Russian Settler-Colonization/Genocide of Siberia and parts of Central Asia) and all European Diaspora populations such as Anglo-Americans, Anglo-Canadians, Québécois, Anglo-Australians, White Hispanics, etc. due to the past Genocidal Settler-Colonialism carried out by members of those Ethnic groups/Nations, as it is extremely hypocritical, and dare I say “Anti-Semitic”, to apply this strict standard to Jews and not to all of these White European populations, and it is definitely worth noting that as much as many don’t want to admit it, even before 1492, Genocide was unfortunately the norm throughout History, both of the Violent (Slaughtering entire Ethnic Groups/Nations) and Cultural (Assimilating and Mixing entire Ethnic groups/Nations out of existence) variety, as seen in the Video of the Changing Ethnic Map of Europe over the past 2000 years I posted, which shows dozens of Nations/Ethnic groups in Europe, divided into several large Ethno-Linguistic groups, most notably the Germanic peoples, Slavic Peoples, Romance Peoples, etc. all of which have been Migrating/Invading, Mixing, Assimilating, and Genociding each other over the past 2000 years, with many Historical Invasions/Conquests/Migrations which archeologists previously thought were cases of elitPost too long.

Ok so it's normal to do unpaid work for ultraliberal rich politicians, got it. Bizarre, to do charity for the rich and powerful.

I was quite surprised when Zohran's campaign expenses, at least some part of it I bet, like everywhere else there is a big wall of bureucracy obscuring much of the money flows. But I digress, the man apparently hit the cap of money he could spend on campaign, and had to ask people to stop donating at around $14m. (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/05/nyregion/mamdani-donations-mayor-money.html)

And I'm looking at this stuff and man. Zohran has 14 million to spend. He can pay millions upon millions to PMC consultants and media companies

But can't spare a single say, $600k~ payment to give every one of the 60k volunteers a thousand bucks for their efforts.

>which barely concerns an average EU prole
You are right, it does. And consumer protection barely concerns average prole, and freedom of movement barely concerns average prole, and regional investments barely concern average prole, but when you add them up you will find out EU actually concerns great deal of people.
I cant properly respond to your points because there is nothing of substance to respond to, all you do is scream "bourgeoisee", "PMC", "liberal", as if that was a replacement for analysis or an argument. I could bring up working people from poorer EU countries benefiting from free movement, and you are just going to call them all PMC bourgeois threatlerites, I am sorry, I cant construct an counterargument to your personal affect.


>>2539367
>You just have some emotionally motivated dislike of EU
My dislike for the EU is political in nature because the EU is not a person but a political entitiy and that dislike is from a working class perspective. I gave you a number of clear examples why the EU is shit in particular for working class people but for some reason you got triggered by mentioning Erasmus which barely concerns an average EU prole but is loved by middle class youth and smug liberals in particular because they like to be smug about their education and how much they know about the world. Erasmus is for kids with higher education which means upper middle class because 75% of PMC offspring receives higher education. These kids don't need stipendia, because their parents are top earners. Meanwhile only 25% of kids with working class background make it into higher education. So i reckon you're a deluded middle class burger liberal who knows nothing about the EU's actual nature or you're a dishonest liberal EU shill. Either way, i'm glad i made you upset.

>Everybody has private market economy. None of its current members were anything other than private market economies before joining, and none of them currently show any desire to be anything but.
Except every single post-communist country which were given explicit demands by European advisors that they should fully open their markets to the West and sell off all of their state-owned industry if they ever want to join the EU. Their economies were purposefully hollowed under a carefully executed plan that was explicitly neoliberal.

>Freedom of movement is a big one

What's so good about brain drain in poorer Eastern European countries and increased competition among workers in richer Western European countries? Or about the middle strata of Southern European countries being turned into open-air museums with sky-high unemployment and ordinary people getting priced out of major cities? Does anyone like these aspects of open borders?

>Consumer protection laws is another

The reason why they are there in agriculture is because farmers are constantly in revolt. It wouldn't be otherwise without the EU, especially when it has already done a lot to make agriculture more export-driven and severely reduce the food sovereignty of European countries. In the car industry they are mostly about how to annoy the people sitting in the car the most effectively. They are a protectionist measure which is fine by me against non-EU countries but it also makes cars stupidly expensive. I have to admit the tech industry regulations are cool, but it's also not a flex because the only reason the EU is doing objectively good things like making USB-C mandatory is because it has no tech companies to speak of and in practice that means that US companies control the minds of Europeans and any EU country can be literally turned off at a push of a button. But I don't think there is a single person that is glad about those stupid plastic bottle caps, other than the (most likely German) companies which were given the chance to developed otherwise unnecessary machinery specifically for crushing plastic bottles.

Workers absolutely support right-wing parties

That doesn't mean petit-bourgeois can't right-wing too, but that depends on what we mean by petit-bourgeois. Actual small property owners that produce real goods, farmers in particular, are usually right-wing nationalists. This is what Marx meant in his time by petit-bourgeois and it is still correct in the economic sense, but context matters. The way capitalism developed in the late 19th and early 20th century, the uppers strata of the working class, professionals and the trade union bureacracy became just as subservient to capital as the petit-bourgeois. After neoliberalism, material production of things became less and less useful to capital and the source of profits shifted to monopoly rents. This made the industrial and agricultural petit-bourgeois an opponent of finance capital. Meanwhile the lower strata of the working class became lumpenized and its upper strata in large part shifted from managing industry to managing rentier capitalism. So in the political sense the real reactionary middle class is the professional-managerial class, and not the commodity-producing small property owners. It only makes it clearer that certain types PMCs refuse to be legally classified as workers because with their high income it's more beneficial for them to give up the legal protections that people classified as "employed" enjoy just so they can avoid paying mandatory social security contributions. These are the people who vote for mainstream liberal/green/"soc"dem/conservative parties. They are the ones with a stake in the system. Not the farmers getting raped by Monsanto.

What's odd here is that Labour are doing their best to alienate high autism score, PMC, middle class, high status, etc etc voters instead of embracing them.

the elite theory explanation is that the working class have low social status so cannot be supported by labour. thats it. this is not to say that these surrogate groups like ethnic minorities necessarily have high social status (still, they do out-margin poor whites), its only to say that to support them as a white person denotes high social status, while fighting the ignorant peasants beats away the ogres. its a politics of fashion. but why is this? because virtue signalling is a form of social intelligence which affects high I.Q. individuals, with labour constituents and members generally having higher education over other groups. this difference between the workers and bourgeois intelligentsia is also commented upon by lenin as a necessary contradiction:
<We have said that there could not have been Social-Democratic consciousness among the workers. It would have to be brought to them from without. The history of all countries shows that the working class, exclusively by its own effort, is able to develop only trade union consciousness, i.e., the conviction that it is necessary to combine in unions, fight the employers, and strive to compel the government to pass necessary labour legislation, etc.[2] The theory of socialism, however, grew out of the philosophic, historical, and economic theories elaborated by educated representatives of the propertied classes, by intellectuals. By their social status the founders of modern scientific socialism, Marx and Engels, themselves belonged to the bourgeois intelligentsia.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1901/witbd/ii.htm
so then, there is a conflict of interest between the proletariat and the communist party, even as marx understood it in the manifesto, with communists themselves only being a clique of internationalists. pver time, labour has become filled with more of the educated (PMC) , over traditional sects like trade unionists, and this has affected the political attitude.

Abundance is, of course, Zionist ideology from the class of euphoric PMC Elon Musk technocrats. Neoliberals explicitly condemn degrowth using the exact same language as their fellow PMC Marxist counterparts in the ACP who also talk like smug anime villains as they scold they slaves. Why?

Because they are all the class of settler cannibals who define their entire personality around the murder of indigenous humans ("nonhistoric people" as Marx and Engels said regarding their historical materialism program that neatly aligns with what German industrialists said during the holocaust). Socialists whole thing is "we need fully automated luxury space communism, in my utopia, I will be the Contrapoints art critic in the Star Trek spaceship along with Elon Musk". Marxists seethe at the thought of being forced to learn the names of their Palestinian slaves and to work alongside them to do the same jobs they do.

The greens aren't going to win the election (yet) because the country is full of pensioners and resentful low-status idiots, but the demographics get more favourable year by year (more 2019 Tory voters died than switched in 2024!).
Labour aren't going to win the election because despite being the natural PMC party their plan is to alienate everyone who knows the difference between a paedo and a pediatrician.
Media manipulation primarily works on undesirable demographics (remember, if only people with degrees could vote we'd be well into the third Corbyn term despite media aimed at PMC, like the Guardian, doing more than most to undermine him) so the press coming out against the greens won't affect them - the "seriousness" of a policy platform is an illusion: Johnson 2019 and Starmer 2024 both had deeply unserious platforms cosplaying as serious.

The idea that UK feminists are more serious than those elsewhere is risible. Every trans person in the country could be a rapist and the negative attention they receive would still be excessive relative to their numbers. Relative social status is a much better explanation:
The UK has more cranks who resent that transhumanists (on twitter) are high status (on twitter) and they aren't, despite being an Observer columnist and a dutiful class traitor with an affected accent and therefore clearly more deserving. It's so unfair when dangerhairs mock you and spoonerise your stupid double barreled name in the replies to your column where you distastefully joke about Thai transsexuals. (Don't they understand that you're a high status columnist, well above a mere pleb, or a man in a dress [tee-hee!], and certainly above some third world hooker?)
But fortunately there's a waiting audience for their columnist whining on Mumsnet: a Blairite type bitter that society doesn't give a damn about middle aged or older women (a legitimate resentment, but wrongly sublimated into resentment of the young and cool rather than real activism to change this)

Meanwhile in normal countries PMC and liberals understand that it's much cooler to endorse trans rights because it signals their own progressiveness and tolerance and it alienates low-openness conservative losers. It's a brilliant filtering mechanism and a signal of desirable traits to boot.

In the PMC world, you lose the election campaigning for police abolitionism because it's so 2021 rather than because it's too radical. In the PMC world you fund public services so they've got something to do paperwork for - meanwhile in dumbworld you defund public services to wipe the smirk off the PMC's faces because even though it hurts everyone, their status falls relative to Dumbo's. Then the savings go to some cunt like Farage (who's low status by virtue of being a wanker, making him an ally of those who're low status because they're not hip enough to keep up with PMC lingo)
It's idiotic on the face of it.

(I don't see things in these terms, but sometimes it's fun to present your argument like a total cunt. Even if it is uncool. Call them PMC if you want, I'd rather be managed by the tedious professional managerial class than by the seething resentful lumpen/petit bourg class.)

>An estimated 3 million people died due to the Bengal famine of 1943. The purpose of this article is to theorize the Bengal famine through the lens of colonial biopolitics. The colonial strategies and utilitarian principles by the British authorities exacerbated the Bengal famine. Utilizing Foucault’s concept of biopolitics, I point out how the British viewed Indian bodies discursively. To reaffirm their sense of superiority, they reduced their Indian subjects to animal-like beings’ incapable of controlling their own reproduction. In order to fulfil British goals, Indian people were forced to participate in the war effort. This paper situates the local and global politics of the famine as they were wrapped up in the geopolitics of World War II, during which the British colonial authorities were far more concerned about a Japanese invasion of South Asia than they were with the lives of people dying of hunger. The article highlights how the implementation of racist policies worsened the famine since it was a product of wartime priorities and calculations. I argue that the Bengal famine of 1943 is a historic tragedy of the colonial past, which was transformed into a socially constructed catastrophe by the British colonizers.Geographers have never studied the Bengal famine of 1943, and one of the principal purposes of this paper is to fill this void.

"Lenin is condemned by modern Trotskyist PMC history 😏"…"🫨 wait no, you have to ignore the satanic New World Order of pedophile globalists who force children to spend hundreds of dollars to buy those history textbooks from the Zionist agent Robert Maxwell. We need to talk about pre-1992 history actually, REEEEEEEEEE!!!!"

There's a difference between a German financier or industrialist backing Hitler because they believe it to be financially lucrative and see unions and communists as a threat, and an incel member of the Freikorps or the SA who simply wants to beat Jews to death and violently rape a woman.
I recommend 'Male Fantasies' by Klaus Theweleit for a more in depth look and how it aligns with what I wrote.

>This psychopathology stuff obfuscates

No, it explains why the motivations of bougie NrX reactionaries are different from a white suburban chuds ranting about black people on xitter.
You cannot win these people over with reformism. They do not care about socialism no matter whether they're PMCs, proles or, lumpen. They're sexually frustrated, insecure, and want to watch other people suffer, or at least ensure they won't act as their bosses or remind them of the sex they're not having. Their concerns are libidinal and sexually pathological, not economic.

The NEETs who only care about their tendies, anime and video games aren't going to be voting for anyone anyway. Except maybe whoever they think will continue to allow them to live like that.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't mean to imply that I think religion is impossible to reconcile with communism. I've been thinking about the role of religion in society a lot lately, ever since my brother started getting really into his Christian faith, while at the same time retaining his left SocDem politics. As in he is still opposed to communism in high principle, but if I lay out my idea of a program to transition to communism (radically democratize the state, nationalize the monopolies while allowing small businesses to operate with incentives towards becoming co-operatives, etc.) he agrees with it. In fact I think his study of Jesus's teachings as described in the New Testament has even pushed him to the left. It's also pushed him to the right on "sexual politics" however - he's anti-abortion now, and while he's not anti-gay, I get the impression that he interprets the holy texts to mean that non-reproductive sex is sin but congenitally infertile people get a pass.

What I'm trying to say here is that I think religion, or at least Christianity, is compatible with socialism in practice. I'm an atheist, but when it comes to left-wing Christians I think I'd feel downright uncomfortable trying to persuade them to give up on religion.

Your point about people taking up communism as some kind of penance for their sins of benefiting from imperialism / racism / being a PMC Starbucks barista instead of shoveling coal etc. etc. is well said. I had an amusing discussion with one of those kinds of people - he was ashamed of owning a Macbook before his communist "conversion" but recoiled at the thought of paying $300 a year in party dues. I was paying more than that not only in dollars but also as a percentage of my income. I guess you can compare my example to Christians who obsess over their sins of watching porn etc. but refuse to get their wallets out to help the poor.

>look inside it’s far right neoliberals
every American settler socialist movement over the last 15 years: "Google Bookchin, we must SMASH THE AUTHORITARIAN STATE for its racist regulations of consumer freedom for individuals"
People after googling Bookchin: "so wait, anarchists have 'no quarrel' with neoliberals who support selling children in the free market?"

lol PMC socialist literally dream of having woke versions of Jeffrey Epstein pagan temple islands, where sex workers are "liberated" from Stalinist oppression to cross borders to be servants of the class of redditors. Really makes you think about what Ukraine's "revolution of dignity" in 2014 was really about!

That's not an unfounded belief since middle class PMCs/intelligentsia have played prominent roles in other colour revolutions. In Eastern Europe these types tend to be Western facing and culturally/politically liberal, connected to international finance capital as middle managers, etc. However things do seem different here given the specificity of the demands which boil down to a transparent investigation of the train station collapse, amnesty for protestors/prosecution of police abuse, and an increase in education funding. I think students are in general relatively susceptible to being deployed as part of a colour revolution, but that doesn't mean it's always the case and there isn't much to indicate that it's happening here.
