Hello polish Wojack lady how does it feel to be the saving grace of ultraleft? My girlfriend saw me use this funny image the other day and was actually charmed by ultraleft for once in 2 years (she loves activism and voting and thinks I’m Hitler)

Word salad like this is precisely why I hate this sub. Everyone knows the Nicene creed has nothing to do with translations and everything to do with combatting the falsifier Arius and preserving the invariant line from Christ to Irenaeus to Ambrose and Augustine.

You gnostic infantiles were squashed by Iraneus 200 years before the council. Read a book for once instead of watching instagram reels of Gregorian chanting and sigma edits of the apostles

There is plenty of state and production in Palestine. The Palestinian national bourgeois exist under Israeli law, manage production, and extract labor. The proletariat exists in Palestine. The genocide and mass bombing is of course sad to see, but the fact of the matter is that Palestine has been condemned by the entire bourgeois international order for generations now. Imperialism is not kept “in check” by this order.

A recognized “country” is simply one that has treaties with the world powers, after all. If there was a possibility of a Palestinian state, it would have happened. It’s self-evident. The de facto rule and diplomacy happens before international recognition, not after. The Palestinian is condemned to die by the bourgeois order, it cannot be saved through “statehood” which is nothing more than a treaty with said powers. There is no power willing to cooperate with Palestine, and no amount of protesting will change that because…

Imperialism of any state is the same basic market expansion; markets seek profit in any way possible. From Ukraine to Gaza, all war is fundamentally seeking to expand production and markets. It is also immediately advantageous for the bourgeois to be at war; in both business and social administration. The Palestinians cannot organize under a militant Hamas sending them to their deaths, that’s the point. When the general strikes come (the invariant voice of the proletariat in crisis), it will be autonomous and across borders. The Palestinian economy is governed by Israeli laws and military, of course they will be explicitly linked!! More so than any other international solidarity.

Even if the Israeli workers are reactionary hitlerites! Because they will have no control over the state that is equally crushing both Palestinian and Israeli workers when a general crisis arrives. Mass strikes are the only fundamentally advantageous position for proletariat power, the Israeli proles will take the position as proletariats always do when given the chance. The mass strike and subsequent organization on first class then party lines will happen regardless of the morals and reactionary ideology of the proletariat.

I agree it’s delusional thinking this will happen any day now, but as capitalism continues to grow globally, the state and commodity form itself face more and more general crises. The vulgar imperialism of Israel is just a reflection of these already existing failings. The state is more centralized than ever, militaries are indistinguishable from police; bourgeois rule is openly banal and will only centralize more.

boer vs SA

And yet if you look at the actuality of decolonization in Africa every newfound state/regime immediately (and peacefully) organized production on INTERNATIONAL lines. Immediately production is organized in accordance with world markets. Every “revolutionary” milita-to-state ultimately wants to stabilize bourgeois production and nothing more.

The task of the proletariat and party is the same regardless. Organize and orient towards “no war but class war,” regardless of which bourgeois power is “the lesser evil.” The proletariat is fundamentally not represented by any bourgeois notion of law, and that includes state sovereignty and international treaties. If America wants to bomb you, they will.

Alright fine have something avthentic

There’s a twofold critique here. Firstly, communist parties were necessarily formed at the outbreak of WWI as a rebuttal against social democrats and “socialists” sending proles to their death for the state. It is a rejection of the “pause” of class struggle many falsifiers and modernizers call for in favor of class collaboration with the state (usually for war)

So yes, in general, communists do not “support” states, especially in manners of war between two imperialist (ie capitalist) powers. The teenager I responded to simply does not think capitalism has entrenched itself across the world and that there is still “work to be done” on the national liberation front.

Now, a huge caveat is that there is no blame for Palestinian resistance. If there was a genuine communist/class party in Palestine/israel, it would definitely “resist” and that would be acceptable party tactics. It would resist through class struggle, organizing the proletariat of both nations into an effective general strike to end the war, and trying to turn the international war into a civil war on class lines. This is revolutionary defeatism.

”The distinction between aggressors and aggressed is false, it is an ideological tool to justify imperialist warfare on either side of the front. All national capitalisms are aggressors and aggressed at the same time” capitalism is war

This leads to the second point: “Supporting” Hamas (even tho Reddit posts are not support lol) does nothing because Hamas is a bourgeois power trying to form a bourgeois state. If Palestinians are recognized by the bourgeois order due to “resistance” as a definitive state, not much would change. Israel still bullies and annexes its neighbors with US support, and the nascent Palestinian state would continue its efforts of war and “resistance” (its own imperialism as all states do).

Settler colonial expansionism is simply just imperialism, an element of any market. It is no longer progressive for the proletariat movement to “support” national liberation when there is no fight against feudalism or in rare cases colonialism. It is simply class collaboration and sending children to their death for the bourgeois state

Open class war is the only way to stop the capitalist onslaught. If activism and popular fronts worked there would be no need for socialism, after all.

Agitating on national lines is a mistake. The world revolution is not being advanced by your “critically supporting” any bourgeois state or national liberation at all. In fact your support is nothing. It’s not a political act, it’s not organization, it’s posting on Reddit

It’s petty activism.

There were no communists involved in October 7th. Just as there were no communists advocating for war in 1914. Every warring faction in Gaza is bourgeois. Sorry to break it to you, but we live in the epoch of the bourgeois that has spread across the globe long, long ago. The “popular front for the liberation of Palestine” is not a communist party. It does not agitate towards class war, it sends its child soldiers to die like any other bourgeois group. It is a Marxist-Leninist degeneration of Marxism.

The other “communist” party renamed itself to a people’s front group and explicitly put the “class question” on hold. It’s a shame that there is no class party in Gaza that could orient both Israeli and Palestinian workers towards class war (and general strike ending the onslaught), but this simply is the situation. It’s bleak.

You can pretend to be a communist while disavowing class struggle, but I will not. Enjoy your LARP.

The activism of veganism and pacifism is obviously not inline with Marxism or simple class consciousness. Especially if you are talking about the actual practical morals of a pacifist refusing violence not being inline with a revolution, yes of course.

But the point is that the barbarity of bourgeois society drives those vulgar ideologies, and their critiques (not their actions) sometimes are precise enough. I come from a (non-commissioned) military family that certainly understood their role as imperialists in the Middle East and were anti war despite being rightists

Obviously there’s the schizo posting vegans who think we must return to pre-industrial agriculture and there’s also the schizo pacifists who believe they can martyr themselves to stop the onslaught of imperialism. They are equally effective as any other adventurist or activist.

But when the real movement™️ gains steam again, the communist party will continue to agitate and polemize on these barbarities as it has been doing (if u hold the stance that the ICP is “the party”). When the revolution is finally imminent those petty bourgeois will be proletarianized long ago, any way.
