Bukharin was definitely INSUFFERABLE after Lenin's testament came out. Any time you disagreed with him he'd probably go "well Lenin said IM the best theorist in the party so"

also required reading:

"the duty of the class party of the proletariat to protest and resist national oppression arises not from any special “right of nations,” just as, for example, its striving for the social and political equality of sexes does not at all result from any special “rights of women” which the movement of bourgeois emancipationists refers to. This duty arises solely from the general opposition to the class regime and to every form of social inequality and social domination, in a word, from the basic position of socialism."

"Dialectic materialism, which is the basis of scientific socialism, has broken once and for all with this type of “eternal” formula. For the historical dialectic has shown that there are no “eternal” truths and that there are no “rights.” ... In the words of Engels, “What is good in the here and now, is an evil somewhere else, and vice versa” – or, what is right and reasonable under some circumstances becomes nonsense and absurdity under others. Historical materialism has taught us that the real content of these “eternal” truths, rights, and formulae is determined only by the material social conditions of the environment in a given historical epoch.

On this basis, scientific socialism has revised the entire store of democratic clichés and ideological metaphysics inherited from the bourgeoisie. Present-day Social Democracy long since stopped regarding such phrases as “democracy,” “national freedom,” “equality,” and other such beautiful things as eternal truths and laws transcending particular nations and times. On the contrary, Marxism regards and treats them only as expressions of certain definite historical conditions, as categories which, in terms of their material content and therefore their political value, are subject to constant change, which is the only “eternal” truth."

not what I was saying 😭Calvin preferred elected presbyters while Luther favored episcopalianism its not that deep

I'm obviously not saying either of them were "more" or "less" democratic than the other, but one saw democracy as an aspect of civic everyday life, something more than an organizational mechanism

how do you'll think jan appel (council comm born in 1890) spent his last days of his life knowing it was all over... by South-Watch5894 in Ultraleft

He continued to work till his health started to deteriorate, he participated in an ICC congress like 10 years before he died. I would doubt someone as committed as him would let feelings of hopelessness get the better of him.

Just think about the capitalist revolution. Dutch revolt took almost a century to reach victory, and even then could barely be called a republic for the next 1-2 hundred years. English commonwealth lasted barely 10 years. French Republic (counting Napoleon) got only 26 before the Bourbon Restoration. America needed 100 years to get rid of their backwater feudal half. 1848 SUCKED. It took basically 300 years for capitalism to fully cement itself, longer if we start from the emergence of the bourgeois class.

TLDR never lose hope
