R-right, /leftypol/? It's gonna go back to salvageable conditions, r-right??!?

Marx in the Manifesto (1848) thought that the struggle would simply be between an international proletariat versus capitalists, but the later Marx (1869-70) perceived a lack of solidarity between members of the proletariat themselves, foreshadowed by Engels in 1845, on the topic of immigration. Engels was also prescient in determining a "labour aristocracy" driving a wedge between members of the working class, as early as 1858. Marx imagined that the petit-bourgeois would be proletarianised, but this never quite came, with more and more rentiers eating scraps from the master's table. Engels encounters this (though dismissively) in 1873, around controversies concerning the tenants and landlords. Here, the old class war (e.g. pre-1848) had again emerged as a primary contradiction of life. The emergence of Fascism is said to begin in 1919, but really occurs in 1893, with the Aigues-Mortes Massacre, where Italian immigrants were murdered by Frenchman, causing the neologism of "National Socialism" to emerge in the words of Maurice Barrés in 1898. The end of the century saw the new reactionary counter-tendency of the working class, towards a protectionist policy for wages; a resentment of free trade in the labour market – like the unionised aristocracy of labour. Lenin by 1902 saw that trade unionism was incapable from its own efforts to theorise or struggle for socialism. The working class perceives its own primary contradictions, not between their employers, but between fellow enployees. The workers, in their own desires, do not want socialism.

STOP!!!!!!!!!

what was the last thought you had before aiming your eyeballs at this beautiful thread?????????

>I must let you know who this man really is who embarks upon vituperation so glibly and what is his parentage. Virtue? You renegade!—what have you or your family to do with virtue?
>Shall I relate how your father was a slave who kept an elementary school near the Temple of Theseus, and how he wore shackles on his legs and a timber collar round his neck, or how your mother practiced daylight nuptials in an outhouse? You helped your father in the drudgery of a grammar school, grinding the ink, sponging the benches, sweeping the room, holding the position of a menial.
>After getting yourself enrolled on the register of your parish—no one knows how you managed it, but let that pass—you chose a most gentlemanly occupation, that of clerk and errand-boy to minor officials. After committing all the offenses with which you reproach other people, you were relieved of that employment. You entered the service of those famous players, Simylus and Socrates, better known as the Growlers. You played small parts to their lead, picking up figs and grapes and olives, and making a better living out of those missiles than by all the battles you fought for dear life. For there was no truce or armistice in the warfare between you and your audience.
>Compare, then, Aeschines, your life and mine. You taught reading, I attended school. You danced, I was choragus, You were a public scribe, I a public orator. You were a third-rate actor, I a spectator at the play. You failed in your part, and I hissed you.
