  • What I’ve figured over reading and studying theory for myself is when you think you’ve understood Socialism and specifically scientific Socialism, you read something else that shows how little you know. There is no specific formula for how to build Socialism in a country. In the 19th century the international wasn’t going around imposing a one formula for all; they would learn the conditions of a specific nation and critique the party programme of their labor or workers or social democratic parties. Was NEP Russia not Socialist? Well Lenin tells you why that’s not true. Marx as well knew that the new society would be marked with the birth pangs of the old. Communists do not see capitalism as totally evil but rather as a great tool that greatly develops the productive forces. Once those forces are developed enough then they can be used to build Socialism.


  • Since in a Communist society your labor power would have been abolished as a commodity, it would free up a person to any pursuit, I mean you can indeed pursue one career but why be stuck programming for 6 hours when you can do so much more with your time. One of the biggest issues with careers is that it keeps you stuck doing one thing for years and decades, that’s not healthy except for those who truly find enjoyment in their careers. Like imagine a doctor also being an engineer and does temp as a bartender or some days works at a farm.



  • Right, I supported Vaush for a while until I started to read a lot and have since only supported Vaush as the necessary opposition to the radicalized right kids today because of the over saturation of the “anti sjw” crap you always see, as well as the political apathy of major youtubers who “don’t want politics in games”. I’m not afraid of the millennial generation I belong to because I know a lot of them are left leaning but the next generation is more at risk of apolitical apathy than right wing radicalization. As Kreia once said “apathy is death”.
