I think some of you are claiming to be leftists and have never done anything other than buy an eat the rich sticker from Etsy and participate in internet moral purity culture 👀

The chart does not capture the astonishing fact that these accomplishments were achieved under brutal sanctions imposed by the world’s superpower. Viva la revolución.

They also have ad-free TV ✌️📺 (you don’t need commercials with Socialism).

I think AITA would be better on tumblr bc you see a lot of posts like "I'm a landlord and my tenant stopped paying rent and stabbed me, was I the asshole for evicting them?"

And only tumblr would come to the correct conclusion that the tenant was cool and right, all landlords are assholes for rent seeking and that Mao had some good ideas.

#tbf my only interaction with reddit has been youtube videos doing readings of aita posts #reddit #socialism #aita #communism #marxism #marxist leninist #mao #anarchism #politics #landlords #maoism

You can't call yourself a Marxist and be ideologically opposed to trans people, those are incompatible modes of thought.

gender identity theory is incompatible with the Marxist scientific method.

believing your thoughts determine your reality is a product of subjective idealism. Marxism is not idealism but dialectical materialism, there is an objective reality and objective material conditions from which human consciousness stems. we exist as material, physical beings rather than immaterial conscious spirits. subjective consciousness is subordinate to and dependent upon the material world.

the correct Marxist position is not "i feel i'm a woman therefore i am a woman" but "i am objectively female, and this makes me a woman".

“It is true that both the woman and the male worker are condemned to silence by their exploitation. But under the current system, the worker's wife is also condemned to silence by her worker-husband. In other words, in addition to the class exploitation common to both of them, women must confront a particular set of relations that exist between them and men, relations of conflict and violence that use physical differences as their pretext.”

— Thomas Sankara on the intersection of patriarchy and capitalism.

what does it mean when people say stuff like individual morality or action is incompatible with class analysis or class struggle?

alright so like one of the key ideas about class analysis is the idea that classes (as a whole) have economic interests that affect all their members but don't extrapolate out to an individual analysis.

for example, let's say that you can't find a job, and somebody offers to pay you below the table for below minimum wage. it's in your individual interest to do this--it beats having no job! but as a member of the working class, once this practice becomes normalized, suddenly the standards of pay for everyone are lower because people know that they can just pay less than minimum wage under the table. competition between workers for jobs drives wages down for everyone, leaving them all in a worse situation overall even if each individual choice to scab, to accept lower pay, to resist unionization, etc, leaves the person who makes it better off. cf. karl marx on what happens when wages and working conditions deteriorate:

The labourer seeks to maintain the total of his wages for a given time by performing more labour, either by working a great number of hours, or by accomplishing more in the same number of hours. Thus, urged on by want, he himself multiplies the disastrous effects of division of labour. The result is: the more he works, the less wages he receives. And for this simple reason: the more he works, the more he competes against his fellow workmen, the more he compels them to compete against him, and to offer themselves on the same wretched conditions as he does; so that, in the last analysis, he competes against himself as a member of the working class.

— Karl Marx, Wage Labour & Capital

similarly, any individual member of the working class is completely dispensable and replaceable by capital. if one person refuses to work unless they're paid a higher wage, they'll be fired and replaced with somebody who doesn't. the individual worker has no economic leverage whatsoever. but the working class has incredible economic leverage! and so does the intermediate stage between the working class and the individual--organized segments of the working class (e.g. trade unions) have economic leverage. if one person strikes, the capitalist can fire them. if 40,000 people strike, your industry is going to shut down.

so the reason why class analysis is compatible with individual action is that your incentives measurably change when you start organizing--it's in the interests of the individual to compete, but in the interests of the class to cooperate. and obviously you cannot just expect everyone to spontaneously coordinate! you, the individual, are disposable to capital! if you, personally, refuse to take the under-the-table offer, either on moral grounds or because you recognize your class interest, your neighbour's going to take it--unless you and her get together and agree that neither of you will take it. that's the only way that the guy making the offer is going to have to give in and offer the job for a living wage.

and this is what organization is--trade unions (although they have severe limitations!), communist parties, and other worker's organizations allow the working class to pursue their collective interest--which can only be pursued by collective action, because engaging in the strategies of collective action as an individual, without the cooperation of your peers, is high risk for no reward.

#ask #marxism #the effects of electoral politics are far far more limited in scope than trade union activity but the same holds for voting #which is what the original post i was responding to was about #if you 'vote blue no matter who' then the bourgeois party you're showing loyalty to--#--will have no reason whatsoever to even marginally offer to improve your life #and if you as a solitary individual tell joe biden 'well im not voting for you unless you promise so and so social democratic reforms'#he is gonna be like lol lmao dont care #while if you and your several thousand friends all get together and say that #he will at least be obligated to pretend to care before immediately reneging on it bc he ultimately serves capital

It's actually wild that there's still people on here that are hopped up on so much military grade copium that they still insist China is in any way, shape or form "building socialism"

Like sorry dawg, capitalism is global and having a red flag doesn't change that fact! Just because they're not The Big Bad Guy TM doesnt mean the state isn't deeply entrenched in capitalism, despite its modal differences

Go read actual contemporary Chinese communists like Chuang or something so maybe you'll realise class struggle is very much still underway in China and that a *state* that still maintains *wage labour* and *uses money* and produces *commodities for profit* and *stamps out workers movements* isn't actually your fucking comrade that you have to fellate to prove you're a Real Communist TM

It's fucking pathetic because all it does is just discount the fact that there ARE people struggling there, that there ARE workers and communists actually organising against capital. Like damn bro, I bet that the minimum wage delivery drivers doing gig work for Meituan feel reeeeally liberated from capital!

I am so fucking mad on the internet rn and i wana kiss a beautiful woman

If you think you don't like socialism, remember that kofi, patreon, gofundme, venmo, paypal, and other donation sites are the redistribution of wealth

When capitalism fails, we turn to a socialist modification to capitalism to improve our lives
