I sort of agree with this, this is partially how we've gotten incredibly annoying Estonian and Polish fascists endlessly crying at how the USSR liberated them from the Nazis

These people are fundamentally unserious on the one hand, but on the other it is objectively better for a people to naturally reach their own revolutionary conditions and then give material assistance in the duration of and after their revolution.

I know it's low hanging fruit, but treatler

Charismatic idiot that is really good at rousing the spirits of every fascist inside the boiling pot that is the USA, makes good deals for the top capitalists which are the tech bros in the current time, and spreads anticommunism as much as if the USSR still existed.

Lmao

Maybe this is worth opening an issue about on Lemmy, it would be a fun feature especially here

This is infuriating, negotiating with the butchers to give them back the property that rightfully got liberated away from them, but we're in desperate times I guess...

Should have gotten nukes from the USSR while it was around

I think this theory has reached tinfoil hat levels by now, even the videos with the weird glitches could be explained by image compression and video streaming quirks.

Sadly he still breathes air, but at least he will be able to bear witness to his "promised land" being turned to debris soon enough inshallah

I swear the White House could just come out and openly declare that it's a dictatorship with no elections, and people would still do fuck all because "oh well, 'tis the law"

It sounds a bit like great man theory but it does make sense under the current state of the crumbling US empire which is lashing out everywhere to stay alive a little more.

Palestine with Biden, and now Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, and its own people being openly terrorized by thugs. I think the US regime as a whole is going to be more barbaric than it was for a long time by fighting what is to them an existential fight to maintain their global superiority over China, they will either succeed or cause maximum damage and suffering along with their defeat.

They do seem to be taking the unhinged path so far though..

 

What's your opinion on this?

 

We are literally a bomb target because we host US bases from which most if not all planes pass for Iran in order to go and murder innocents, but people are still like "yeah but if we weren't in NATO we'd be worse off".

Fuck the privileged west, you could make them face the wall for the profits of some pedophile American billionaire and they would still feel like they're getting a good deal out of it.

May the bombs wake some people the fuck up

I remember some time where this account actually posted Marxist theory in a fun way, now it has completely devolved into turning class issues into man issues and openly calling for matriarchy in all seriousness. She even agreed with a commenter who said that if Marx was alive he'd be in the Epstein files (he would tbh, but in the Fidel kind of way, not the Chomsky way). I hate how many of these influencers who achieve large audiences and could really raise class consciousness just throw it all in the trash and take the easy route of distraction and opportunism. I used to follow her but I can take no more of this shit.

There's one wishing OP gets fired over this

These people bitch and moan about gulags but they wouldn't notice if capitalists put them in one

 

When reading through Marx I can't help but think that capitalism has gotten even worse today than it used to be back then, meaning that the actual mechanisms that drive capital now need much more exploitation and in more forms than they used to.

Also I wonder if some changes of capitalism have also caused the working class to be so completely numb. Workers of the 19th and 20th century knew that the capitalists have opposite needs to them and only through fighting them could they stand to improve their situation. However today people just seem uninterested to really fight for themselves despite the proletariat being a much larger percentage of society compared to the past. I know I'm leaving out some important struggles going on when I'm saying this, but it still makes me wonder what made workers in the past centuries so much more class conscious.

I don't believe that much, if anything, that Marx critiqued about capitalism has changed on a structural level, but the flow of capital is so complex today, and the collected capital has become so much larger, that it begs the question if this has created some superstructures of capitalism today.
