We stand for active ideological struggle because it is the weapon for ensuring unity within the Party and the revolutionary organizations in the interest of our fight. Every Communist and revolutionary should take up this weapon.
But liberalism rejects ideological struggle and stands for unprincipled peace, thus giving rise to a decadent, Philistine attitude and bringing about political degeneration in certain units and individuals in the Party and the revolutionary organizations.
Liberalism manifests itself in various ways.
To let things slide for the sake of peace and friendship when a person has clearly gone wrong, and refrain from principled argument because he is an old acquaintance, a fellow townsman, a schoolmate, a close friend, a loved one, an old colleague or old subordinate. Or to touch on the matter lightly instead of going into it thoroughly, so as to keep on good terms. The result is that both the organization and the individual are harmed. This is one type of liberalism.
To indulge in irresponsible criticism in private instead of actively putting forward one's suggestions to the organization. To say nothing to people to their faces but to gossip behind their backs, or to say nothing at a meeting but to gossip afterwards. To show no regard at all for the principles of collective life but to follow one's own inclination. This is a second type.
To let things drift if they do not affect one personally; to say as little as possible while knowing perfectly well what is wrong, to be worldly wise and play safe and seek only to avoid blame. This is a third type.
Not to obey orders but to give pride of place to one's own opinions. To demand special consideration from the organization but to reject its discipline. This is a fourth type.
To indulge in personal attacks, pick quarrels, vent personal spite or seek revenge instead of entering into an argument and struggling against incorrect views for the sake of unity or progress or getting the work done properly. This is a fifth type.
To hear incorrect views without rebutting them and even to hear counter-revolutionary remarks without reporting them, but instead to take them calmly as if nothing had happened. This is a sixth type.
To be among the masses and fail to conduct propaganda and agitation or speak at meetings or conduct investigations and inquiries among them, and instead to be indifferent to them and show no concern for their well-being, forgetting that one is a Communist and behaving as if one were an ordinary non-Communist. This is a seventh type.
To see someone harming the interests of the masses and yet not feel indignant, or dissuade or stop him or reason with him, but to allow him to continue. This is an eighth type.
To work half-heartedly without a definite plan or direction; to work perfunctorily and muddle along--"So long as one remains a monk, one goes on tolling the bell." This is a ninth type.
To regard oneself as having rendered great service to the revolution, to pride oneself on being a veteran, to disdain minor assignments while being quite unequal to major tasks, to be slipshod in work and slack in study. This is a tenth type.
To be aware of one's own mistakes and yet make no attempt to correct them, taking a liberal attitude towards oneself. This is an eleventh type.
We could name more. But these eleven are the principal types.
They are all manifestations of liberalism.
Liberalism is extremely harmful in a revolutionary collective. It is a corrosive which eats away unity, undermines cohesion, causes apathy and creates dissension. It robs the revolutionary ranks of compact organization and strict discipline, prevents policies from being carried through and alienates the Party organizations from the masses which the Party leads. It is an extremely bad tendency.
Liberalism stems from petty-bourgeois selfishness, it places personal interests first and the interests of the revolution second, and this gives rise to ideological, political and organizational liberalism.
People who are liberals look upon the principles of Marxism as abstract dogma. They approve of Marxism, but are not prepared to practice it or to practice it in full; they are not prepared to replace their liberalism by Marxism. These people have their Marxism, but they have their liberalism as well--they talk Marxism but practice liberalism; they apply Marxism to others but liberalism to themselves. They keep both kinds of goods in stock and find a use for each. This is how the minds of certain people work.
Liberalism is a manifestation of opportunism and conflicts fundamentally with Marxism. It is negative and objectively has the effect of helping the enemy; that is why the enemy welcomes its preservation in our midst. Such being its nature, there should be no place for it in the ranks of the revolution.
We must use Marxism, which is positive in spirit, to overcome liberalism, which is negative. A Communist should have largeness of mind and he should be staunch and active, looking upon the interests of the revolution as his very life and subordinating his personal interests to those of the revolution; always and everywhere he should adhere to principle and wage a tireless struggle against all incorrect ideas and actions, so as to consolidate the collective life of the Party and strengthen the ties between the Party and the masses; he should be more concerned about the Party and the masses than about any private person, and more concerned about others than about himself. Only thus can he be considered a Communist.
All loyal, honest, active and upright Communists must unite to oppose the liberal tendencies shown by certain people among us, and set them on the right path. This is one of the tasks on our ideological front.

Our emotional state of choice is Ecstasy. Our nourishment of choice is Love. Our addiction of choice is technology. Our religion of choice is music. Our currency of choice is knowledge. Our politics of choice is none. Our society of choice is utopian though we know it will never be. You may hate us. You may dismiss us. You may misunderstand us. You may be unaware of our existence. We can only hope you do not care to judge us, because we would never judge you. We are not criminals. We are not disillusioned. We are not drug addicts. We are not naive children... We are one massive, global, tribal village that transcends man-made law, physical geography, and time itself. We are The Massive. One Massive. We were first drawn by the sound. From far away, the thunderous, muffled, echoing beat was comparable to a mother's heart soothing a child in her womb of concrete, steel, and electrical wiring. We were drawn back into this womb, and there, in the heat, dampness, and darkness of it, We came to accept that we are all equal. Not only to the darkness, and to ourselves, but to the very music slamming into us and passing through our souls: we are all equal. And somewhere around 35 Hz we could feel the hand of God at our backs, pushing us forward, pushing us to push ourselves to strengthen our minds, our bodies, and our spirits, Pushing us to turn to the person beside us to join hands and uplift them by sharing the uncontrollable joy we felt from creating this magical bubble that can, for one evening, protect us from the horrors, atrocities, and pollution of the outside world. It is in that very instant, with these initial realisations that each of us was truly born. We continue to pack our bodies into clubs, or warehouses, or buildings you've abandoned and left for naught, and we bring life to them for one night. Strong, throbbing, vibrant life in it's purest, most intense, most hedonistic form. In these makeshift spaces, we seek to shed ourselves of the burden of uncertainty for a future you have been unable to stabilise and secure for us. We seek to relinquish our inhibitions, and free ourselves from the shackle's and restraints you've put on us for your own peace of mind. We seek to re-write the programming that you have tried to indoctrinate us with since the moment we were born. Programming that tells us to hate, that tells us to judge, that tells us to stuff ourselves into the nearest and most convenient pigeon hole possible. Programming that even tells us to climb ladders for you, jump through hoops, and run through mazes and on hamster wheels. Programming that tells us to eat from the shiny silver spoon you are trying to feed us with, instead of nourish ourselves with our own capable hands. Programming that tells us to close our minds, instead of open them. Until the sun rises to burn our eyes by revealing the dis-utopian reality of a world you've created for us, we dance fiercely with our brothers and sisters in celebration of our life, of our culture, and of the values we believe in: Peace, Love, Freedom, Tolerance, Unity, Harmony, Expression, Responsibility and Respect. Our enemy of choice is ignorance. Our weapon of choice is information. Our crime of choice is breaking and challenging whatever laws you feel you need to put in place to stop us from celebrating our existence. But know that while you may shut down any given party, on any given night, in any given city, in any given country or continent on this beautiful planet, you can never shut down the entire party. You don't have access to that switch, no matter what you may think. The music will never stop. The heartbeat will never fade. The party will never end. I am a raver, and this is my manifesto.

just thinking out loud here, there's a few ways you could model the purpose and therefore end of lockdowns:

1) most people will get the virus eventually, so lockdowns are in place to "flatten the curve" and avoid overwhelming health care systems. in this scenario it would make sense to start slowly lifting restrictions any place where the health care system has significant excess capacity right now (which is many places in the US). would have to be a slow lift due to the lag in time from exposure to using health care resources

2) longshot jackpot scenario: you can lockdown in your area effectively enough to halt the spread of the virus before most people have had it, and then prevent any new introductions to your area. seems unlikely given the prevalence and asymptomatic spread of the virus, but you could hope for this. probably requires much more stringent lockdowns (national guard delivers your food level) for much longer.

3) longshot jackpot scenario: you can lockdown long enough to develop a highly effective treatment before most people get the virus. of course significant efforts have gone in to looking for treatments for other coronaviruses in the past, but you can hope that with the massive investments being made right now that a highly effective treatment will be found in a few short months.

4) legislators have no idea what the gently caress they are doing and are just sort of charting a course between health experts, perceived public demands, and partisan political goals by the seat of their pants.

i mean obviously scenario 4 is what's happening but I don't really see how 2 and 3 are likely.

in a well actually: Jan 26, 2011; dude, you gotta end it on the rhyme

you lock down until you get sufficient testing capacity (actual sero not antibody) to test everyone (ideally multiple times) as well as masks for everyone, get rules around distancing, etc. as well as medical capacity

then you test frequently, temperate checks, rapid response to outbreaks, contract tracing, etc. see South Korea, Taiwan.

how do you scale up the testing to the order of the whole population every couple of days? remember, like half or more of the infectious people will have no symptoms and won't have an elevated temperature.

test-trace-isolate makes sense if you have a thousands infections. I don't see how it can scale to the millions of infections we have now in the united states.

You don�t need to hit every few days; every few weeks is probably sufficient. Defense Production Act, university and private labs, hospitals; improvements in test process to use less reagent. Lots of options to increase throughput. Make nice with China; you need their supply chain. Will pay for itself many times over. Just need a competent government with a money printer.

30 million unemployed; carve off a few million restaurant and bar employees and pay them 15 an hour to do calls for contract tracing.

strong evidence for primarily droplet spread and that masks are very effective; majority mask wearing and reducing high risk activities can get this and keep it under control.

Would have been much better in Feb., but no need to shrug and kushner a few hundred thousand folks

sure, all of that would massively slow the spread, but I don't see how it would stop it. so far it turns out no country has successfully contained the spread of the virus. china (eventually), singapore, and south korea came close but ultimately failed, and the US government ain't exactly singapore.

canada is having mixed results because we're one country with many nations in it -- alberta just wants their oil to be worth a positive amount of money again, ontario is dense in more ways than one, quebec probably thinks this is anglo-canadian biological warfare against french canadian culture, and BC is staying at home as much as possible so the number of active cases has basically flatlined

certainly if their workplace is lovely about it so for like, amazon, its still bau (their stuff really pisses me off because i know some folks that work at a hub and i want them to be safe)

alright, put me down for 50 bucks on ohio for "epicenter of covid-19.2"

its somewhat restrictive, but it comes down to enforcement too. occupancy has to be half the normal limit and if spacing isnt possible barriers must be installed, as well as actively saying stuff like hail and nail salons, tattoo parlors, and whatever other stuff is too close and has too much risk are still closed

im mixed, since this still seems risky, but it also is time gapped by two weeks for certain parts, so if the first two weeks backslide, theyll be able to pull back again. first two is things like some elective surgeries and dental work that non-emergency, as well as office and manufacturing that is nonessential

I'm still wfh minimum until June and in Ohio.

We had a guys only weekend scheduled for the end of June before this all hit and officially canceled this past weekend. We knew it wasn't happening long before that though.

Thankfully that was the only thing I had planned. I feel bad for people who had something that took a lot of planning. My one buddy is getting married in August and I don't know what their backup plan is.
