The amount of people that don’t go school, don’t go to therapy, and don’t engage socially because they feel economically insecure and there’s a price tag attached to these activities is evidence of that hard to measure social decay caused by capitalism

The domination of one being over another is justified by the popular interpretation of the concept, “survival of the fittest,” and yet this is not what Darwin meant at all by the concept. Cooperation too, leads to the fitness to survive.

Leftist accelerationists forget that many of the most notable leftist theorists from Marx to Lenin were able to publish their writings because they were within the borders of western nations while writing. Theres a difference between authoritarian states and liberal democracies.

This is a significant point made by @VaushV and it’s an important one

As @alfiekohn argues in “No Contest” and Kropotkin argues in Mutual Aid, it is cooperation not competition that is the positive driving force of humanity

Biden saying that there would be no safety for Jews without Israel is reminiscent of Hannah Arendt’s concept of “enteral anti-semitism” - the idea that Jews should be united under and always expect to be treated poorly. As Jews we must avoid this trap that Israel thrives on.

I wish that there wasn’t a legacy of “Zionist” being used in an anti-semitic way. Israel thrives on this confusion.

If Lenin and Trotsky and Stalin were going to destroy the legacy of communism, they might as well have tried to be actual communists

Instead, they reestablished workplace hierarchy, disempowered the local soviets, killed fellow socialists, and then created a “kulak” class through market liberalization that they then used as an excuse to kill any peasant trying to feed themselves.

If you would support giving military aid and money to the Palestinians, then you should support the aid to Ukraine. Ukraine happened to be lucky enough that their imperial aggressor is an enemy of the US. Palestinians are not so lucky.

But by all means focus your attention to Palestinians. Ukrainians already have the implicit support of the US. It’s time for Palestinians to receive the same

The imperial core pacifies its citizens through meager democratic reforms while it installs fascism in the global periphery. The fact that Gazans are actually receiving representation will show the west we’ve been purposefully isolated from our foreign policy #FreePalestine

We must in our advocacy for socialism recognize those who have suffered under the banner of communism. Western leftists have the privilege of dismissing anti-communism as Cold War propaganda.

Eastern Europeans and East Asians have had to recognize the distinction between true socialism and communist dictatorships for years.

That being said I can also understand the urge in the west to avoid talking about places like the Soviet Union in order to avoid the association altogether. What I am saying is that when it comes up it must be recognized and validated

When we talk about free market competition we need to talk about who has the power in the competition

For example the global poor don’t have a leg to stand on in the capitalist vision of international free trade and developing nations end up becoming a resource mine for the imperial core
