>I love my country but it does not yet exist edition

The American question is: how does a settler-imperialist nation transform itself into a decolonized socialist commonwealth without either reproducing the imperial form or fragmenting into balkanized enclaves that allow capital to reconstitute, while resolving the contradictions of internal colonization and liberating its external colonies, therefore using the empire's collapse to accelerate material conditions to enable the global revolution?

Interview he did here
https://terrabayt.com/dusunce/english/crisis-capital-and-hell-on-earth-an-interview-with-phil-neel/
>>2891661
Phil acutally gives a bit of Leninist critique in the next paragraph:
>That said, I’m not a communization theorist. I do not like the framework or the term. I do not think there is anything special about our era that makes us any more (or less) prone to building communism today than we were in the past, though perhaps the possibility becomes more clearly visible or more necessary. I certainly draw a lot of influence from theorists associated with the current, but that’s simply because they are good, interesting, and rigorous Marxist thinkers. As for myself, I consider myself an entirely orthodox communist. That includes both the Marxian aspect, as well as the sequence of practical lessons learned in the long history of struggle and elaborated in theories of revolutionary organization. In this respect, I think many within the communization current do not focus enough on the frictions that arise in the pragmatic process of building power in a hostile world, even if they do a great job of symptomatizing the limits faced by existing uprisings and relating them to large-scale, structural trends. In other words, while they’re very good Marxists, they’re often not very good Leninists.

>It is necessary to think quite hard about the likely sequence of social transformation, the forms of revolutionary organization that would be needed to channel that process, and the geopolitical, administrative, and economic demands placed on any revolutionary force that emerges and holds any territory. In this regard, we still do not have any better living examples than the saga of the Soviet Union, the protracted people’s war in China, and the struggle for survival by isolated revolutionary states like Cuba. These are also case studies in the extreme ways that revolutionary societies can degenerate, either into bizarre chimeras like North Korea or, more conventionally, by melting back into the liberal order, as in Russia an

Since the board is slow, (and my adhd stuggle to post on near-dead boards), let's do a general discussion thread of what you've been reading/watching.
Similar to the /tv/ thread on hobby.


I'll start:
Manga: Kingdom
It's alot of fun, currently on chapter 430.
Despite the restriction of it being in the past, there's alot of strategy/complication that makes it interesting to read.

And the manga is fun in the fact that it has shoenin level power clashing and hyping of characters – but still respects reality.
Like a character being healed after a fight is explained by months or even years of a time skip, or when situations where "talk-no-jutsu" would've occurred in shoenin, instead the person ranting is just meant to understand the world more before they die.


I am reading some others as well, like: Vinland Saga, One Piece, Watamote, and a few others – just been alittle addicted to Kingdom.
(I should catch up with One Piece though.. I'm 110 chapters behind with it).

Eu não vou tankar 5 anos dessa uniesquina com esse conteúdo superficial e esse horário de merda feito pra CLT que trabalha o dia inteiro, pensando seriamente em fazer um cursinho ano que vem e entrar numa pública que são as únicas universidades de verdade neste país. Foda é que eu tô com 25 anos já.

Perdi uns 5 anos estudando pro IME/ITA e no desespero acabei indo pra essa merda de particular.

>>19967
Se tiver alguma fonte de renda, faz isso mesmo. Agora, o problema da pública é o oposto: é projetada para te expulsar se você for CLT.

>>19967
Cara, aproveita essa questão do horário e vai tentando fazer estágio, de preferência olha as empresas que você se identifica e aprende logo o que elas pedem. Você tem mais tempo livre e pode fazer isso. Estudando integral você tem menos tempo pra aprender coisas fora da faculdade (que 95% das vezes vão ser mais úteis pra sua vida/trabalho do que conhecimento técnico que você pode aprender depois) e além disso, boa sorte conseguindo um estágio conciliando estudo em tempo integral (de noite é quase impossível).
Me formei em particular e poderia ter ido pra pública no segundo ano, mas não me arrependo de ter continuado lá, você só tem experiência mesmo trabalhando e as pessoas da pública estavam menos prontas do que eu quando formadas. Depois vc faz uma pós onde quiser.

Around the 29 minute mark Peterson criticizes Marx and Engel's for assuming that workers would magically become more productive once they took over.

This actually happened historically, most of the actually effective productivity tricks work places use now were developed by Stakhanovites.

You know there are actually two NATO's?
Class A NATO and Class B NATO.
Class A - Germanic NATO.
Class B - Slavic NATO.

When there would be an actual attack on NATO Class B, it doesn't mean the Class A (Germanic) will go and send their soldiers to fight the attacker.
You will not read about this in official documents and statements, but this is the reality.

If for example, Putler would attack the baltics, we might see Poland, Romania and maybe Finland and Sweden, fighting.

NATO is a paper tiger, Putler is already doing hybrid war against baltics, Poland, Romania, but NATO is not reacting at all, they don't respond with hybrid war against Russia.

Nice LARP. Your beloved Turkey is an imperialist dog and coconspirator of Nafoid, very similar to your own country which is an American ally, basically a Muslim Israel.

I think the division is more down to the “old powers” looking out for number one.
The UK, France and Germany aren’t going to agree amongst them who’s elected to be the battleground for a war (let’s face it, it’d be Germany again) so expanding to conquer former Soviet and Warsaw Pact nations is, on the one hand more likely to spark war, but on the other has the irresistible benefit that war will be fought on someone else’s territory. Their former adversaries’ in fact.

It’s genius, if it weren’t for the fact WW3 is exceedingly unlikely to remain conventional. So in practice they’ve just brought us closer to nuclear war than at any point in the Cold War because potentially a Russia-NATO war stops with negotiations with Ukraine getting rekt rather than Germany.

Germanics never planned to defend the Slavs if Russia invades. It was fake from the beginning.

Sex 2.0 = No penetration, stimulation with hands or sex toys. Top doesn't have to receive any pleasure and it is the bottom who is the subject. Rapey patriarchal shit does not exist. This is lesbian sex. Not disgusting at all.

Here in NH, a pro-Palestine DSA candidate, Heath Howard, who is also a disabled comrade, was hounded out of the primary race by progressive influencers for "transphobia". He openly said Israel has no right to exist as a state on WMUR, our local state news channel. Could it be any more obvious this was a coordinated smear campaign?

/leftypol/

 

Why is it that the surviving members of the George W. Bush administration who acted as the architects of the Iraq War have never faced any legal penalties for what they did?

The 2003 US invasion of Iraq was arguably one of the worst human rights atrocities of the past 50 years. Over 1 million Iraqi CIVILIANS were killed. If that's not a low key genocide similar to Gaza I don't know what is. But it's even worse knowing this war was based entirely on a gigantic lie (a "noble lie" if you will) by some of the slimiest, most diabolical villains ever known to American politics. Yes, Dick Cheney, Colin Powell and Donald Rumsfeld are dead and rotting in hell. But George W Bush, Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith are still alive. Neocons Bill Kristol, Robert Kagan and John Bolton who were the top dogs in PNAC (Project for a New American Century), which called for massive military spending and preemptive attacks (also a "New Pearl Harbor" which conveniently happened on 9/11) are also still alive. WHY HAVEN'T ANY OF THEM EVER BEEN CHARGED AS WAR CRIMINALS?????

The Straussian cabal is very real and still holds loads of ideological power within American politics. Many Neocons from the Bush II era have now since become Democrats and publicly supported Kamala Harris over Trump on the basis Trump wasn't Neocon enough. These people have names and addresses and have to face some kind of legal penalties so the world can finally have closure and the Neocon war criminals can finally reap what they sowed.

It was a strategic target since Israel's early years to become boycott-proof, complex products that depend on high level B2B sales eg Intel chips are perfect for this

Most of the techies have left after 10/7 and haven’t come back, haredim that can’t read, just make babies, study torah, and refuse to join the IOF, insisting that prayer from the sidelines will carry the country to victory in a David/Saul/Soloman larp

for the same reason china and india are investing in their tech sectors, because our elitist white supremacist western culture and its whole philosophy of "let's just use our superior intellect to be the brilliant financial wizards and 'ideas guys' and let the helpless savages do all the actual work" has created a situation where we don't know how to build anything ourselves anymore and the savages are not so helpless now and they do know how to build the things we need and they know how badly we need them. we offloaded all of our expertise to the rest of the world to save few dollars on labor and now they are going to sell it back to us at an exorbitant price and we will have no choice but to pay it.

One of my core political positions and personal values since I was a literal child is that any kind of violence and coercion is way worse when accepted and normalized or state sponsored. I can accept rape, murder, and torture as facts of life that are impossible to eradicate as long as the public is strongly opposed to it and the state cracks down on it. What disturbs and enrages me to the point of wanting to hurt people is when people become accepting of it and even worse when the state starts practicing it. A cruel criminal needs to be turned around and the community needs to be protected from him. A government oficiall that authorizes torture and degradation of a person ought to be shot on sight. The visceral reaction i get from normalized barbarity is so strong that its almost knee-jerk. I wonder if there is anyone else who thinks like this or if im a genuinely insane.

explain it anyway

for me it was the opposite, violence - real violence - was normalized for me as a kid and it wasn't until well into adulthood that i learned that it was not a normal thing for most of society. i get the feeling that a lot of the people who most vocally endorse violence are the people who have never really been exposed to it, all they've ever seen is videogame or movie violence or shock content on the internet, not actual traumatizing real life violence that screws you up in the head forever when you see it.

>but we literally throw out half of food under capitalism. if we had socialism it would all get distributed instead of thrown out.
This is true and nobody denies this. However, not all food is created equal. The Western World would still maintain a relative privilege over the type of food type it consumes and the embedded energy associated with it. Things that are all disproportionately consumed in the West like meat-heavy diets, dairy, processed foods, and year-round imported produce. Even if all food waste were eliminated, a Western diet built on high animal-product consumption would still be ecologically unsustainable and could not be universalized. The issue isn't just "more food for everyone," but a different diet and agricultural system that equally benefits everybody.

>>2900737
Real or perceived personal harm isn't the same as relative privilege. The harm you're describing the harm is slow, diffuse, and often individual, while the benefits are immediate, concrete, and socially embedded.
At the end of the day, regardless of the harm associated, a Western worker is still more mobile and enjoys a much higher material abundance than most of the world. Even an occasional flight is an option billions lack. And the West can still be a net food exporter and still import high-footprint animal feed, out-of-season produce, and luxury crops that embody periphery land and water, often from countries whose own food security is undermined by export-oriented agriculture.
Those things, harmful as they can be, still materially places the Western working class above much of the periphery. Losing them will feel like downward mobility.

ok you've convinced me. imperialism is in my best interest. fuck the future. fuck the proletariat. fuck you. is that what you wanted to hear? long live me. i'll fucking bomb the shit out of you and take everything from you and if anyone tries to take my lifestyle from me I'll burn the world down. it's impossible to reduce consumption. you're right. i'll be so triggered and hecking uncomfortable i'll reveal myself to be the fascist i always was. me and all 340 million of my herrenvolk. this is the part where you declare victory because you got me to reveal my "true self" and then none of us are any closer to the fabled revolution (which is impossible because treatlers don't want it). god damn humanity and god damn the world.


>>2900723
>However, my point is that even if the core hypothetically turned "socialist," it would still have a material incentive to maintain its relative privilege over Earth’s finite resources in order to maintain consumption levels.
then explain why other socialist societies went out of their way to improve the production and consumption and general standard of living when they took over other places? The USSR actually parasitized the fuck out of the Baltics, right?

Are there any modern games that actually get the cyberpunk aesthetic right?

Cyberpunk 2077 looks pretty great during the night cycle, but during the day it becomes clear and sunny and looks more like gritty Futurama than cyberpunk.

low bit depth retro colour palette in this game, very grey and concrete levels but they also had these sunny dirty grassy areas in syndicate (1993), doesn't have the neon design and 3d lighting aesthetic of cloudpunk.

its more cruelty squad esque, although the game creator themselves came up with the term cyberpuke, which encompasses all the cruelty squad-likes that have been made, which i think is pretty genius.
anyways ur a fleshbag automaton/slave that can only repeat what other people have said to you. pretty unique gimmick that i wish the game did morw with but pretty fun game. approx 2ish hours.

one flaw is in this screenshot. for example none of the saved dialogue besides FILL SUCKZ is valid dialogue. non-valid dialogue drops your "health" and characters respond as if youre talking crazy. it would be fucking amazing if every character could respond to most stuff like this but i also know it would be a ton of work. decent effort for 5-6 person team even though it is pretty barebones. 6/10 but would recommend at least one playthrough

>>47814
mainly bc id like to see more work put into the game. its fun but the dialogue only lets you say so much it might as well be linear.

> If you want to be really esoteric, Marxism is advanced feudalism.
No. Marxism is not advanced feudalism. Feudalism is predicated on aristocrat-serf class relations, whereas Marxism is predicated on the elimination of class relations. On what planet could one possibly come to the "esoteric" conclusion that Marxism is "advanced feudalism?" Even assuming this is inspired by that dumb pop-Economics book from Yanis Varoufakis (Technoefeudalism) that is not even his hypothesis. His hypothesis is that the capitalist countries are becoming Technofeudal, not the AES countries. I am honestly baffled by this take and thought it deserved its own thread, because I did not want to derail the thread I found it in. Where are people getting this idea? Is there a common source for this revision or is it arising out of pure vibes?

>I wouldn't go as far as saying it's the main factor like someone said in a thread a few days ago though.
That was me. I was basing it off of the views of Arno Mayer who himself sees fascism as counter-revolution in the era of mass politics. I think that this is a pretty decent definition for Marxists whether you follow Mayer in his analysis of the persistence of the old regime into the 20th Century or not.
