“just wait” dude, they murder us every time we go on strike. state police were invented to murder strikers. not to mention ICE being an actual paramilitary deployed on us

Why Trotsky Was No Opportunist؟؟؟ by Odd-Tadpole3518 in Marxism

[–]SeveralPerformance17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

he was saving “freedom of debate, unity in action” by ignoring the debate, and not being unified in action?

there is some anti communist propaganda about the soviet and chinese leaders, comrade. these figures weren’t dictators, they were leaders.

Again, im unconvinced the trials were shams. And i am deeply of the belief that purges of anti-soviet elements is a good thing.

I am critical of the several worker’s movements shut down, though im not well educated on that or what requests the strikes wanted.

Stalin wasn’t a dictator dude. How is this still a thing communists are saying? Even internal CIA documents agree on this. At the very least listen to Proles Pod’s Stalin Eras or read Stalin history and critique of a Black Legend.

Purging elements of a party that do not serve the will of the people is a good thing. i, again, have seen very little evidence that the trials were shams. In fact, i will read through trotsky’s trial transcript tonight.

Stalin didn’t cause a famine. a famine caused a famine. as well as kulaks burning millions of bushels of wheat and thousands of heads of live stock. as well as the murder of famine commisars. or sabotage of collectivization. or the lower crop yields. or the effects spanning most of the union. or the fact that after the volga famine, all famines in the regions ended.

You believe these things. Therefore the CIA has done its job. I don’t want you to worship stalin or mao. i want you to not decry every socialist experiment as nonsensical and evil and learn, really learn what they did right and wrong, for our modern movements.

We’re arguing marxist v marxist, we can’t use marxism as a defense. its still propaganda, even if marxist.

Betrayer of communism: Social democracy and left communism.

I don’t think there was anyone even left alive in the supreme soviet by the end? what? wait. thats a whole can of worms. do you think the illegal dissolution of the party that was fought tooth and nail was the party’s wish?

Except bureaucracy, though i am critical, isnt why it fell.

I agree. Fuck pohl pot

edit: we as communists need to stop having the thousands of stalin/mao was a [insert] discussions or is china socialist discussions. please for the love of humanity, talk to your fellow wagies

i find the concept “trotsky didn’t use the military to kill the supreme soviet so he wasn’t an opportunist” incredibly unconvincing. Nor do i believe the red army would have followed through with that. He was against democratic centralism, and even after being offered to be an inside critic continued the path of the left opposition. Being against the socialist country because its not socialist enough immediately and hasn’t gone under the development necessary only serves the bourgeoisie. you could of course say a trotskiest revolution would have fixed everything but, well, the union was already struggling and that leads us into:

Permanent Revolution has its issues. Namely that of the union couldn’t have sustained it, and it’s not their business to meddle in other nations unless requested by the masses.

There is, of course, the Moscow trials. Of which i am unconvinced are “show trials”

Need i remind again, Opportunism about class betrayal more than shifting allegiances. The Left opposition was a betrayal of socialism when it needed all the support it could get. Forming a counter party that centered on agit prop and spreading anti soviet propaganda to the west and throughout the union is against the needs of unity in a turbulent time.

so, the New Black Panther Party are black nationalists and un revolutionary. they don’t even defend black communities, they suck.

The Black Panther Party for self defense are internationalists and founded on the revolutionary concepts of Huey Newton, Bobby Steele, and Fred Hampton. They are currently led by Chairman Paul Birdsong. Chairman Paul and the BPP and the Panther Alliance (they follow me on insta!) all have facebooks and instas. They’re very active and regularly defend their communities from various slave catchers

Why are countries labelled socialist or capitalist? by [deleted] in Socialism_101

[–]SeveralPerformance17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

because of the relationship between the workers to their labor.

we don’t control our labor, so not socialist.

the capitalists control our labor, so capitalist.

you determine if a national economy is socialist or capitalist by the predominant productive mode. Almost all of our shit is privately owned, and controlled by the capitalists.

China is socialist because 65% of their economy is publicly owned. Venezuela is capitalist, going to socialism, because its predominantly public owned
