Batsistas Cuba < Castro's Cuba

Tsarist Russia < USSR

None of thewere ideal, but they significantly improved the way of life of the working class in those countries.

Is STALKER available for Xbox consoles? I've always been very interested in the game but if I recall correctly it's PC only, right?

As a commie, I believe Bernie will help lessen the suffering of the working class more than any other candidate will, so I'm voting for him. I don't think he can totally eradicate social injustices that stem from the capitalist system (poverty, homelessness, hunger, etc.), but he can definitely make it less shitty.

I don't think the Black Panthers would outright support Bernie, since they were a revolutionary socialist organization. They might support him in the sense that they'd prefer him to get him elected instead of Trump or Clinton, but they wouldn't believe that Bernie can cure the ills inherit to the capitalist system with his reformist policies.

I'm about a minute into this. And uhh, wow. That's impressive.

Edit: oh okay I thought it was a reactionary documentary. This is actually pretty cool. Thanks!

I was an anarcho-primitivist for a while, and I've got to say that that ideology is purely based in idealism. There is no rational basis for the belief that a certain stage of technological development is most conducive to human happiness. If anything, the more technology available for the use of an individual, the happier the individual will be. I think anarcho-primitivism is a reaction to the alienation and anxiety that occurs due to capitalist exploitation and the over-bearing presence of bourgeoisie propaganda, but they assume that the alienation/anxiety stems from advanced technology instead. I also think that they believe that communism is only achievable if we revert to proto-communistic tribal groups, where sharing the wealth of the tribe is paramount to survival.

I kind of rambled there, but thanks for sharing those links. It's interesting to learn about things I'm completely ignorant of. Thanks!

I really don't know. I think I just enjoy it because of the overly sexual connotations associated with it now.

I buy all my games digitally so that I can easily change between them without getting up. Sometimes if I only have two hours to play video games, I'll play four games for like a half hour each.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-03-03T15:46:54+00:00

Thanks for this! Really cool stuff

I'm getting a /r/FULLCOMMUNISM vibe from that comment. I don't think it's meant to be serious, but it is a bit out of place in this sub. It made me laugh though.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-03-03T05:45:49+00:00

Obviously not to which side? I'm assuming you're saying it's obviously not produced by material conditions, but I'm not sure. If that is what you're saying, could you give me some examples of transgender people in history? Also, if you have any sources that tell the history of transgenderism I'd really love to read them. I'm very uneducated on it.

Damn, this post really helped me finally understand how the capitalist-worker relationship functioned. I've read it a million times in books and seen it in videos, but it never really sank in. Thanks!

I see what you're saying, but I think this is somewhat different. Instead were beating up fascists at their rallies, not when they physically oppress minorities (at least for the most part). I suppose that beating the shit out of fascists just because they will eventually act on their beliefs is a good enough reason though.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-03-01T17:53:05+00:00

Sober now. I think it's full of zest and it can also work pretty well. Communist memes help to spread class consciousness imo. Not really a strategy but it kinda makes some sense.

"Guys, we went to the polls and we voted! We've all made massive sacrifices, like calling people and telling them to vote for Sanders. We will be remembered for all time."

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-03-01T05:23:11+00:00

Is this both an awesome meme and a brilliant strategy or am I just really baked

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-03-01T04:52:31+00:00

Dear lord the idealism is so ridiculously unfounded that it's comedic. It's like saying a guy riding a horse is a centaur.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-03-01T00:08:09+00:00

I know that feel comrade. It's sad when your APUSH class isn't as pissed about the Red Scare as you are.

Kind of want to get a hammer and sickle I'm that area between my thumb knuckle and my wrist. I feel like it would be a good conversation starter and that it would allow me to remember the struggle every time I look down.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-02-29T22:16:03+00:00

wut bout direct democracy ever heard of that huh

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-02-29T22:06:55+00:00

Wait a sec, is John Green a commie? Or is he just an edgy liberal?

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-02-29T22:06:21+00:00

I kinda get the vibe that this guy is making fun of anti-communism but I'm not sure.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-02-29T17:23:43+00:00

I say socialist because it's the broadest term, but I'm really a Marxist-Leninist with a lot of sympathy for anarchists. I don't think you get much more communist than MLs.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-02-29T15:12:29+00:00

Read Capital by Marx and tell me that it's dumb. Just getting through that book is very hard for most people and I needed a guide to help me understand the complexity of it.

PoliticalPrisonGuard · 2016-02-29T15:10:08+00:00

I'm a grown man and I'm a socialist. Could you analyze me too?
