Pener Kropoopkin posted:First World lifestyles are predicated upon the gross overconsumption of resources by individuals. Desuburbanization and transforming transportation from individually-based automobiles to public transit would mean a drastic reduction in the quality of life for a First World worker. The point is to create liveable conditions for the whole of humanity while attempting to deal with the climate crisis, and that's going to involve significant rationing of goods for people who have never experienced it once in their entire lives. what goods are we talking about? not video games, right?

Classic Comrade posted:as someone who's finally trying to take the time to officially learn all this poo poo, this makes a lot of the things i was confused about click. ...which probably sounds stupid and probably should have been obvious to me but oh well at least it makes sense to me now. philosophy is very hard especially if you're just reading on your own. you should see if there's a socialist reading group in your area because it really helps to talk through that stuff with other people

Homework Explainer posted:the best/coolest thing about marxism vs other political theory is, it's expressly designed to be understood and followed by the masses. so unless you're digging into deep academic marxism there's a wealth of pamphlets and pieces written specifically for busy workers. the manifesto is the most famous example but the soviets wrote TONS of stuff that's easily digestible. lenin was good about that and i can link some stuff if you want you should definitely link some of that stuff

good meeting with the dsa tonight. bunch of new faces and some cpusa guests. probably our biggest gathering up to this point. i think the normally liberalish people are more responsive to anticapitalist talk than before.

kinda way and it was too long a video for me refute it but I'm wondering if any of you have seen it and if so what's your take on it? I realise I'm being lazy as hell here but I'm still a babby when it comes to marxist theory, so please chip in comrades.

long night of direct action in college station tx. had a huge leftist showing against richard spencer speaking at the university. we were forcibly removed by riot squad at shield and baton point and horse mounted troops and we had one young comrade suffer a concussion at the hands of the troopers. no fascists moved freely and spencer was evacuated under stealth. i'd say we had several hundred leftists from around the state as well as a thousand non radicals in attendance. will be reporting more about the injured comrade as i hear more; hopefully if she's not insured we can pass the can around and help her out with any medical bills. end of the night we bashed the fuckin fash and i'm extremely proud of the showing that the left made in the most conservative university in tx. someone please make a good meme out of this.

i should have some appropriately censored pictures by tomorrow but just google tx a&m spencer protest and you can see videos of the riot squad doing their thing. we organized misc communists, socialists, anarchists, etc from around the state and brought a terrifying showing counter to the pathetic nazi presence that had the sack to actually show up. antifa, redguard, as well as cpusa, new black panthers, black lives matter, dsa, and other misc anarchist and other leftist groups unified in a way i haven't seen before to shut down, occupy, and prevent the fascists from drawing a national platform from the media. the fact that we had explicit communists and redguard demonstrating alongside conservative/liberal college students without infighting against a common fascist enemy gives me hope for the future. the moderates were confused, but i believe they appreciated the protection the vanguard ultimately provided. when we fight, we win. solidarity forever.

Yinlock posted:"communism never worked out that well in practice" is pretty well-established though Interesting that the countries people point to in regard to this are the most authoritarian examples of communism because of any socialist movement being constantly assaulted by us destabilization efforts.

Also interesting how our great society movements and liberal capitalist social programs have led to the greatest wealth inequality in the history of mankind. I'm sure that has nothing to do with that government structure being wholly unequipped to deal with the constant and inevitable assault of capital on those systems.

perhaps a revolution without a repression of the counterrevolutionary movements is useless? maybe if the north had actively repressed the confederate movements after the civil war we might not have had another hundred years of the tyranny of the kkk in the south?
