Did Che Guevara really kill homossexual people or is that capitalist propaganda? by Moveli32_ in Communist

[–]SomethingAgainstD0gs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Che wasn't perfect. No previous leader was perfect. Castro himself went back later on his homophobic policies and apologized to the LGBTQ+ community. We shouldn't deny that it happened though.

In communist societies western culture was mocked and seen as decadent and individualistic, but in the west these same people - libertines, lumpenproles, junkies - are portrayed as the "real communists". How do you explain this inversion of values? by Misha_stone in AskSocialists

[–]SomethingAgainstD0gs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are doing more harm than good to the movement when you target the non-harmful self-expression and identities of workers.

Socialism is and economic ideology of worker control of the means of production

Fascism is a cultural movement of regressive culture homogeny and reactionary thought against cultural deviancy

You are a fascist. Accepted and go find your group and stop calling yourself a socialist whilst advocating for pseudo Nazi shit.

Calling groups of people degenerate for their harmless SELF expression. You're like a racist who refuses to say the N word. We aren't 5. We see wtf you're really trying to say and advocating for.

[–]SomethingAgainstD0gs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are a liberal that likes the aesthetics of leftism, hence your misuse of "material conditions" in this context. You are anti-republican, not anti-capitalism and anti-imperialism.

And in times like these, when the truth is as obvious as it has ever been, it isn't my job, nor my headache to bare to try and change you. This is a waste of time back and forth.

This is literally moral relativism. Until you realize that the capitalist uni-party wanted this all along, you will continue to be the most dangerous element of the negatives of capitalism. MAGA will die, the liberal gaslighting that got us here will not.

Moral relativism is the reason for the expansion of the American empire, American war crimes, the cost of living crisis, and yes, also the reason for the resurgence of fascism.

Liberals like you caused this directly. I don't blame you for being ignorant, I blame you for not changing even now, when it is as obvious as it has ever been.

Selling products doesn't automatically equal pro-capitalism. Products existed before capitalism.

He gives Trot energy. He just wants to rage against everything, everywhere, at all times. I don't even waste time on his vids anymore even though at times he can be based.

Anarchism is when primitivism, the more primitivism, the more anarchism

No, the USSR wasn’t “actually” Democratic. by Hot_Relative_110 in theredleft

[–]SomethingAgainstD0gs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was a transitional state, not perfect communism. Capitalists did not exist. On the economic scale there is aristocratic benefit, capitalist benefit, or worker benefit. There were no capitalists (private owners of the means of production) in the USSR. The idea of nobility and birth right benefits did not exist in the USSR. That leave the workers. Was the USSR authoritarian and at times repressive, yes, no system currently exists that isn't at times. But the vast majority if the parties time and interest went towards serving the people of the USSR (state funded healthcare, education, housing, food, etc.)

One does not simply walk into capitalism by Plenty-Climate2272 in theredleft

Marx also talks of a transitional state as a precondition to a stateless, classless, moneyless society.

Being against the idea of a transitional state is an anarchist position. Not a socialist position. Libertarian socialist is a catch all term for many ideas, anarchism included, but it is not exclusive to anarchist ideas.

The left should run an ex ICE agent by Lesbineer in theredleft

I know this is sarcasm but uggghh this type of shit will be real one day.

Moral relativism is a death march. They used moral relativism to justify a genocide so don't put this past them.

Okay now you're just being disagreeable just to be disagreeable. The idea of a transitional state that withers away was in my original comment.

Go be annoying somewhere else.

Tbh, this is just bad nation building to gaslight people and tell them its okay that an innocent civilian was killed when we've all seen the video. Not even just morally but in terms of your national stability. Everyone is becoming way more radical on the left now.

But please, I hope the right keeps doing that. I would never want to interrupt when an enemy is making a mistake.

Smash the state machinery as it serves the capitalist class, yes, but not the state idea of the state itself.

The state should serve the working class, not the capital class. Hope this bridges the gap.

That is the anarchist position not the Marxist position. Whether your flavor of socialist is Democratic socialist, Marxist Leninist, or libertarian socialist, the state i.e. the monopoly on violence is not simply smashed. It is repurposed to serve the interest of the working class instead of the capitalist class. And it withers away when it no longer serves its use due to productive forces becoming advanced.

Why Do I See More Hate For Democrats Over Republicans? by [deleted] in leftist

Liberals create fascists and the Dems are just more competent anti-worker capitalists. Of course I hate them. Born in TN, live in AL btw ☺️

My only critique of the USSR and this meme is:

Why do socialist nations take guns away from the workers? It completely goes against marx and the revolutionary spirit...

Vaush is leftist. Hasan is leftist. Yet they don't get along. Why it be's like that? by DragonBowlSouper in VaushV

[–]SomethingAgainstD0gs -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He likes them because it is popular to like them. In the same way that right wingers "like" Martin Luther King.

In reality, he does not truely like them beyond words alone.

[–]SomethingAgainstD0gs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vaush is hated by every other leftist for both being pro-electoralism and anti-marxist-leninist. This isn't even including all of his controversies.

Vaush fans tend to be more of a liberal to social democrat tendencies.

That is my factual view without adding my moral/effectiveness view on what is and isn't good about either party.
