I told a pro marxist socialist pinko communist loving professor in college it would never work because the world will always be unfair and nothing could ever be equal. She said that's not true and spouted a bunch of bullshit about equality and distribution and wealth. I told her that was all well and good but it all goes right out the window when the guy next door has a hotter wife than you and suddenly competition jealousy and greed appear in your perfect utopia. She and left the room crying. Sorry babe.

It will always be around and will always have to be stomped down. One of the sucky things about being human is we like to feel life is fair, and at the same time we like to win and get all the trim. That duality of the human mind will always suck.

“A reformed Eurocommunist post-Marxist New Leftist Frankfurt School professor and social democrat was teaching a class on Nikita Khrushchev, known revisionist.
"Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Leon Trotsky as the most class conscious revolutionary of all time and accept the Fourth International as the only legitimate representative of the interests of the workers of the world!"

At this moment a brave, revolutionary, unreformed Stalinst NKVD veteran who had an appreciation for socialist realist art and read a chapter of Capital every night before going to sleep stood up and waved the red flag.

"If Trotsky was so great, why wasn’t the revolution permanent?"

The arrogant professor smirked quite bourgeoisly and smugly replied, “Because the Soviet Union was a deformed workers state, you idiot gerontocrat!”

"Wrong. Comrade Stalin purged Russia of the kulaks and all enemies of the workers. If your theory of revolution was correct, we would have achieved communism by now."

The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of A People’s History of the United States. He stormed out of the room crying social-fascist crocodile tears. There is no doubt that at this point our professor, Noam Chomsky, wished he had adopted the policies of the Third Period and become more than an infantile leftist bourgeois stooge. He wished so much that he had not betrayed the revolution, but he himself had sold it out!

The students applauded and all sang the State Anthem of the USSR and accepted Socialism in One Country as the best path forward for proletarian cause. The professor lost his tenure and was taken out back and shot the next day.

The student’s name?


Lavrentiy Beria”

If North Korea's biotech researchers cure cancer or Venezuela's space program builds a moon base, Marxism could turn the corner. Something to keep your eye on.

Those countries have got some big stuff brewing I feel like -- that could really put Marxism back on the map.

OTOH Beria was a pedo so...

quote:

Beria's sexually predatory nature was well-known to the Politburo, and though Stalin took an indulgent viewpoint (considering Beria's wartime importance), he said, "I don't trust Beria." In one instance when Stalin learned his daughter was alone with Beria at his house, he telephoned her and told her to leave immediately. When Beria complimented Alexander Poskrebyshev's daughter on her beauty, Poskrebyshev quickly pulled her aside and instructed her, "Don't ever accept a lift from Beria."[40] After taking an interest in Marshal Kliment Voroshilov's daughter-in-law during a party at their summer dacha, Beria shadowed their car closely all the way back to the Kremlin terrifying Voroshilov's wife.

Marxist political theory is alive and well, as well as Leninist theory, but mostly in the west. China has been having fun with Stalinist political dogma for ages.
