A worldwide working class revolution is very unlikely to happen. Let's just start with a revolution in our respective countries and see where it goes from there.

Nay. Marxism-Leninism is better.

The oppression of one is the oppression of all, and we cannot violate the liberty of one being without violating the freedom of all of us.

@anarchistquotes

This is extremely stupid of Bakunin to say, "The oppression of one is the oppression of all, and we can not violate the liberty of one being without violating the freedom of all of us." Nonsense. The oppression of the bourgeoisie under the supremacy of the working class led by the proletarian class is not oppression of the workers. It is the liberation of the workers. The oppression of the bourgeoisie is the liberty of the workers, not their oppression.

Or we can try something more practical, realistic, and more likely to actually be accepted by Americans (as opposed to anarchism), like state socialism.

Every time I feel like arguing with a person online about socialism I instead put up 10 pro-socialist posters in my neighborhood urging people to join a socialist party or question capitalism. Don't waste your time arguing with people online. Your neighborhood, your community is what's important. If you want to build a socialist movement, get offline, go outside, and interact with the people around you in some way.

I'm not going to disclose my age on the internet, but I'm nowhere near 70, I have little lived experience, but my age and lived experience has no bearing on the truthfulness of my claims. What I'm saying is true or false regardless of my age or lived experience.

@laura @dessalines @mistahbenny@lemmy.ml

Stalin was a COMMUNIST, and the party that controlled Russia was COMMUNIST. The country itself was state socialist. As far as I'm aware, the Bolsheviks never claimed that Russia achieved communism. As for Stalin being a dictator, here is a CIA document where the American government pretty much confirms that he was not a dictator.

@sharkfucker420

I blocked mistahbenny. There's no point talking to them. They've already made up their mind on the matter.

@mistahbenny

This is what I hate about people who are vehemently anti-communist. They can look at a picture displaying the atrocities of fascism and then, instead of demonizing the horrific acts of fascism, decide to change the subject to talk about how evil communism is.

Anti-communist looking at picture of the Holocaust: "Man, I sure do hate communism."

@kaliagainstallodds

I don't know how you concluded that "many #tankies are indeed fallen wall street bankers," but from my experience it seems like most ""tankies"" are just poor/working class people who are sick of capitalism.

@MikeDunnAuthor

What am I doing to prepare for the potential Red Scare: Trump edition? The exact same thing I've been doing: agitating the working class against capitalism, educating the working class on Marxism, and, as soon as I'm able, organizing the working class into a force strong enough to combat capitalism. This is what we all should've been doing even before the threat of a new Red Scare, and if you weren't before, here's your wake-up call.

Misogynistic violence, racially motivated violence, violence against trans people, and the exploitation of the working class are all black-and-white issues. They're all wrong, period, unless you want to enlighten me with your "superior centrist wisdom" and explain to me how any of those issues can be good in any way.

@contrasocial I just want to enjoy my movies, games and books without getting caught in the crossfire of a culture war. If that makes me insufferable, I'll take it. 🙂

@zzzyro @contrasocial

Dumbass Centrist: "I just want to enjoy my movies, games and books without having to focus on black people being murdered in racially motivated violence, women being raped, trans people being dehumanized and having their rights taken from them, workers being exploited and not having enough money to survive, and all that uncomfortable yucky stuff. If that makes me insufferable, I'll take it. 🙂
