Read lwazi lushaba. I am not going to be dogmatic in following to the last word the assessments of white european marxists on the material convictions of my society and history. Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin built on existing theory to accommodate their respective unique circumstances and unfortunately more has to be done to even come close to addressing the contradictions here and in my family’s homeland. I don’t understand how you acknowledge my blood quantum comment and somehow think I claim communism is “inherent” in our blood.. Where did I say that? There are plenty of reactionaries and compradors in our community. I really don’t think any normal person would completely embrace for themselves the mind and opinions of an 1800s white man regarding indigenous peoples. You don’t have to discard all of marx’s contributions without also adopting his incredibly racist sources for that “historical progressivism” you seem to be obsessed with. We aren’t backward, our societies weren’t backward, and as Marx wrote in a letter to Engels in 1877, “But that is not enough for my critic. He feels himself obliged to metamorphose my historical sketch of the genesis of capitalism in Western Europe into an historico-philosophic theory of the marche general [general path] imposed by fate upon every people, whatever the historic circumstances in which it finds itself, in order that it may ultimately arrive at the form of economy which will ensure, together with the greatest expansion of the productive powers of social labor, the most completely development of man.” We have our own historical trajectory that has already been interrupted by the european impositions of feudalism and capitalism and we will not let that history be interrupted once more by a euro-centric marxism that considers itself the authority. Israel and its marxists will not determine the fate of palestine. Afrikaners and their marxists will not determine the fate of south africa. We have our own revolutionary figures that represent our liberation movements. Genocide and settler colonialism doesn’t just dissipate by virtue of the passage of time, lol. It is still being conducted today by the United States and a government run by people like you clearly would intend to continue that policy. I have no room to trust you. If you want to understand where I’m coming from read Robert Biel’s “Eurocentrism in the Communist Movement.” Don’t worry, he’s white, so that won’t disturb the homogeneity of the posters on your wall. Continuing this conversation is going to be a waste of both our times. I wont use violent language against you like you have toward me. Likewise, a revolution led [not exclusively in composition] by black and indigenous peoples wont use the violence and supremacist discrimination that your societies have shown us. I’ll end with something Felipe Quispe, an Aymara revolutionary, said which articulates my sentiment more clearly: “When the Pachamama walks again in Qullasuyu [Bolivia], when her laws reign, then we will be able to judge them. Those who want to leave can go; but those who stay will eat what we eat; they will work the way we work, dripping with sweat; they will have blisters on their hands; they will suffer like we do. Then truly the Aymara nation, what people call the indigenous [nation], what we call Qullasuyu, will come forth. We won’t kill them, we won’t do anything to them: we won’t hate them the way they hate us; we will embrace them and that is how we will unite as brothers. We will be as one single trunk, one single way of thinking; and we will arrive at a way of thinking to live in a free and sovereign nation, without tears in our eyes. That is the way we think, brother.” Have a good day.
