“If fascism is a terrorist attack on the working class, Leninism hardly played such a role in Russia prior to assuming state power. Leninism in fact pursued the organization of the working class for the overthrow of capital and the establishment of communism, an idea which no fascists hold to, even the Left Fascists discussed by Agnoli. Now, Leninism may formulate the politics of liberation in all kinds of authoritarian ways, but it does so from within the historical workers' movement, not outside it. Leninism in power did become the vanguard of developing capitalism ('state' capitalism) in Russia. And Leninism in power did certainly lead to an absolutely murderous regime which used all kinds of terror against the working class. But, unlike fascism, this beast grew out of the workers' movement itself, out of its own contradictions and limitations.

If anything, Leninism may best be understood as what it was always accused of being: Jacobinism. But I mean it in the literal sense, that Leninism became the vanguard of capitalist development, but originally as the expression of the radical desires of the masses.

(...)

On another note, let's consider for a moment what the Russian Revolution was a part of. Bolshevism struggled with its own contradictions, but until Lenin's death the eye was always on the spread of the revolution. That Leninism employed means which were anathema to revolution is only to say that Leninism was as limited as Jacobinism in France, which also spread revolution, and which also had to give way to Thermidor because of its distrust of the masses. I don't want to reduce Bolshevism to "distrust of the working class at the same moment as reliance upon it", but it is not exactly inaccurate either, is it? After all, the Bolshevik revolutionaries did not brave prisons and exile and poverty and death for the sake of order, but for the overthrow of Czarism and capitalism. Leninism lived a contradiction which the recurrence to "Leninism = red fascism" simply cannot account for, and dangerously so. It confuses the Jacobins with Thermidor and Bonapartism.

Fascism, in its turn, did not inspire revolutionary upheavals anywhere else, nor did masses of radical workers say "I wanna be a fascist!" No, they flocked to what they thought was the party of the international revolution, and boy were they wrong, but not because they were secretly fascists. They flocked to what, in the developed capitalist countries, amounted to a very militant reformism which could contribute to the instability of capitalism, but which did not have a politics that would do anything but leave the working class vulnerable to fascism, Keynesianism and war.

(...)

In one sense, there is a break between Leninism and Stalinism, a break based upon the final annihilation of the Jacobins by Thermidor and the instutionalization of Bonapartism. It is not a counter-revolution in the normal sense however, since Leninism under Lenin was already Thermidor, much as Jacobinism already contained aspects of Thermidor, but a new stage of development in which youthful exuberance and mass violence must be shed and the right to social control returned to the state. Bourgeois revolution had to give way to bourgeois stability, a stability which cost far more violence because stability had to be imposed on not a class in embryo with little social power compared to the mass of small proprietor (The French Revolution), but upon a powerful working class with international dimensions (The Russian Revolution.)

(...)

I think that Leninism as revolutionary opposition is in fact all but dead and has been for some years, maybe decades. Leninism can serve to disorient people looking for revolutionary ideas, can mislead struggles, and can act, in other words, like class struggle reformists, but Leninism will not be able, in the developed countries, to lead the state except as a kind of recuperative and parliamentary reformism. Bolshevism's social base (as statist vanguard of the transformation from formal to real subsumption) has weakened and diminished, and aspects of Bolshevism have been subsumed within capital (and in that sense continue.) The return to fascism, as the use of terrorism to save capital, is in fact far more likely and far different.”

Small College Basketball Tidbits

As we approach Christmas, I simply wanted to jot down some interesting observations and notes from the first several weeks of the season. In no particular order, here goes:

- Langston is a remarkable story. Last year, the Lions went 1-27. After the season, Coach Chris Wright was hired as the new Head Coach, after leading Talladega to the NAIA National Championship game. Langston overhauled the roster, and is now 13-0 on the season. Just incredible!

- After Emporia State knocked off #1 ranked Northwest Missouri State, the Hornets have now defeated NW MO State in three consecutive games. Last year - in a season when NW MO State won their record-setting 3rd consecutive NCAA Division II National Championship, Emporia State swept the Bearcats in two regular season games. Congratulations to Coach Craig Doty, who has won two NJCAA National Championships and an NAIA National Championship in his young career.

- Last season, Young Harris was 6-21. Thus far this season, the Mountain Lions are 10-0 thus far. Congratulations to Coach Jeremy Currier and the Young Harris team.

- The University of St. Joseph is an incredible story in NCAA Division III basketball. In only their fourth year as a basketball program - started by Coach Jim Calhoun - the Blue Jays are now the #1 ranked team in NCAA Division III basketball. Now led by Coach Glen Miller, St. Joseph is now 9-0. Coach Glen Miller has the unique distinction of leading two different NCAA Division III teams to the #1 ranking in Division III basketball (he also lead Connecticut College to the top spot during the 1988-89 season. Coach Miller has also been the Head Coach at two different Ivy League schools: Penn & Brown.

- Randolph-Macon, who won the 2022 NCAA Division III National Championship, has now won a remarkable 53 straight home games. Incredible!

'A miracle': Rescuer reacts to teen girl's rescue from waterfall

‘A miracle’: Rescuer reacts to teen girl’s rescue from waterfall

Good News Notes: “A Northeast Georgia rescuer calls the mission to save a teenage girl wedged in the rocks of a White County waterfall “a miracle worth sharing.” The girl got trapped about a third of the way down Raven Cliff Falls when she fell approximately fifty feet from the top while trying to snap a photo on May 20. “It was an extremely challenging location to get to and required a lot of…

somebody older and wiser and much more desperate than me told me when i first arrived

musings on the firebirds' inaugural year, the nature of farm teams, and the hope that comes with being a new sports fan (there is a photo on flickr of a 'birds fan holding a sign that says "joey you are my hero!" and maybe one day i'll be able to think about that without crying)

It was a Dia De Los Muertos-themed night at Acrisure Arena and the Firebirds wore special jerseys during warm-ups and each goal was announced in English and Spanish. 🔥💀
