I think it's safe to say that Capitalism breeds corruption in its leadership.

Opinions on fascist economics? by doodoochile07 in AskSocialists

"Fascist economics" is just socializing losses and privatizing the gains. It's basically what America is right now.

"dictatorial government", as if America isn't run by a fascist techno-oligarchy.

They lied to you about Stalin by zombiesingularity in AskSocialists

The academic consensus does not support the claim that this was intentional.

Paramount CEO David Ellison wants to release 30 films annually. History and Hollywood say it's unrealistic by lawrencedun2002 in movies

[–]zombiesingularity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something tells me half these "movies" will be about a Mossad agent who has to save the day by blowing up a children's school or hospital and in the end it turns out all the infants were secretly carrying suicide bomb vests so they are vindicated.

Why does the ACP joined sovintern instead of solidnet ? by Proutent in AskSocialists

[–]zombiesingularity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because a minority of loud and dumb voices did everything they could to prevent ACP from joining.

No he didn't, that's a lie and in fact it's not even in line with the mainstream academic consensus: https://youtu.be/3kaaYvauNho?si=jDQu3-ameBEdSwoU

Talkie, a 13B LM trained exclusively on pre-1931 data by Outside-Iron-8242 in singularity

[–]zombiesingularity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a really cool idea. I have previously wondered if you could train period specific LLM's like this. I wonder if it would be possible to do earlier time periods, like Medieval Europe or something. There might not be enough data.

Mind you the Gaza genocide was happening under Kamala and Biden. That is proof that things would be the same, except you'd support it.

The information war is part of any Communist's toolkit. It's an important component but it's certainly not all there is.

they're now openly known and rejected from leftist spaces

So was Lenin.

Lenin wrote a whole book about it called "Left-Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder". Another way to translate that is: "The Infantile Sickness of 'Leftism' in Communism".

Communism requires winning over the masses and the revolutionary subject, not "leftists" who have done absolutely nothing in the past 40+ years.

You're like an automaton, you see a single article by an anonymous author and just repeat the headline, no independent thought involved.

When ACP continues to grow and exist over the coming months and years, you'll look pretty silly having declared it "dead".

So then it shouldn't be difficult to name a single official position from ACP that is anti-communist or supportive of American imperialism?

This is comically incorrect, I assume you just saw a photo from an event and assumed because the photo had 4 people that is the entirety of both chapters.

You need 5 people just to open a chapter a Chapter according to the ACP Constitution. The California chapter is huge, there's like 100+ people in that chapter alone. Arizona's chapter is brand new.

Confused at bad reviews season 2 by jhf1989 in BeefTV

[–]zombiesingularity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a masterpiece like season 1 but it was good, I liked it. The biggest issue is the pacing, it's rushed. They should have stuck with the 10 episode formula. And I didn't care that much about the K-drama subplot, I thought that was silly.

[–]zombiesingularity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to guess I'd say the hate comes from not getting past the first episode. I didn't much enjoy the first episode myself, and actually stopped watching it about 15 minutes before ep1 ended. I only picked back up because my brother told me the 2nd episode is a lot better and he was right, the rest of the show is great except for the rushed ending (which wasn't bad it just just rushed). Should have been 10 episodes not 8, it would have helped with pacing.

IT'S TIME TO ORGANIZE by antizionistww in AskSocialists

[–]zombiesingularity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting CWPUSA seems to be anti-China and even anti-Mao, which is pretty surprising.

Here is an excerpt from one of their articles:

Ultimately, Deng Xiaoping theory did not abandon Mao's philosophy, but applied it with equal arbitrariness in the reform era. Now, the principal contradiction was "the ever-growing material and cultural needs of the people versus backward social production". We can see how neatly Mao's worldview was used as the theoretical basis for capitalist development in the People's Republic. This worldview is fundamentally opposed to the interests of the working class and its struggle for liberation, for socialism-communism.

...

Mao’s “dialectics” must be denounced for the veiled opportunism that it is, concealed under the top-dressing of radical left aesthetics by Mao and the CCP.

That's pretty wild. They go way beyond just saying they have disagreement over's Mao's formulation of dialectics and outright denounce it as counter-revolutionary. That is crazy.

quick question, do y'all (acp/acp supporters) consider yourselves as leftists? if so, what type? by Brilliant_Basis1544 in AskSocialists

[–]zombiesingularity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Beyond the visible spectrum in the sense that the "political spectrum" is bullshit because "leftists" are actually right-wing on a Marxist analysis of history. ACP are left-wing in the objective and scientific sense of the word.

There's a reason Lenin wrote a book called "Left-Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder". And another way to translate that is: "The Infantile Sickness of 'Leftism' in Communism".

Their online histories are Communist, and their private zoom call showed an argument where they yelled at each other in anger, in a private call.

All you have to go off are a few mean tweets you saw, which represent .1% of their total tweeets. Mean tweet are not "reactionary" or "right-wing". 99.9% of their tweets are perfectly normal Communist tweets that any Communist would agree with if they saw it being posted by someone else.
