  • the capitalistic system that we have created makes it so easy to become a racist or even an interbalized racist as I wass . Not only do those in power (billionaires and multi millionaires) fund smear campaigns against minorities and 2SLGBTQIA+ people but this system we have put in place makes it very easy for the average worker to unconciouusly become “anti-minority” or even ‘anti-anyone who isnt super rich’ because those who hold the most capital or have hhad the ability to obtain the most capital have become very good at painting themselves as saints when they are the cause of most of the world’s iniquities and we have fallen for it all. Its a self-sustaining system that has to.be completely , permanently broken up

    “In keeping with their system-sustaining function, the major news media present reality as a scatter of events and subjects that ostensibly bear little relation to each other or to a larger set of social relations. Consider a specic phenomenon like racism. Racism is presented as essentially a set of bad attitudes held by racists. There is little analysis of what makes it so functional for a class society. Instead, race and class are treated as mutually exclusive concepts in competition with each other. But those who have an understanding of class power know that as class contradictions deepen and come to the fore, racism becomes not less but more important as a factor in class conflict. In short, both race and class are likely to be crucial arenas of struggle at the very same time. Marxists further maintain that racism involves not just personal attitude but institutional structure and systemic power. They point out that racist organizations and sentiments are often propagated by well-nanced reactionary forces seeking to divide the working populace against itself, fracturing it into antagonistic ethnic enclaves. Marxists also point out that racism is used as a means of depressing wages by keeping a segment of the labor force vulnerable to super-exploitation. To see racism in the larger context of corporate society is to move from a liberal complaint to a radical analysis. Instead of thinking that racism is an irrational output of a basically rational and benign system, we should see it is a rational output of a basically irrational and unjust system. By “rational” I mean purposive and functional in sustaining the system that nurtures it.” -Michael PArenti

    “In all regions studied here, incorporation into the capitalist world-system was associated with a decline in wages to below subsistence, a deterioration in human stature, and an upturn in premature mortality. In parts of South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and Latin America, key welfare metrics have still not recovered.  Where progress has occurred, significant improvements in human welfare began several centuries after the rise of capitalism. In the core regions of Northwest Europe, progress began in the 1880s, while in the periphery and semi-periphery it began in the mid-20th century, a period characterized by the rise of anti-colonial and socialist political movements that redistributed incomes and established public provisioning systems.”.

  • "Now, there’s one thing you might have noticed I don’t complain about: politicians. Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They don’t fall out of the sky. They don’t pass through a membrane from another reality. They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses and American universities, and they are elected by American citizens. This is the best we can do folks. This is what we have to offer. It’s what our system produces: Garbage in, garbage out. If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you’re going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. Term limits ain’t going to do any good; you’re just going to end up with a brand new bunch of selfish, ignorant Americans. So, maybe, maybe, maybe, it’s not the politicians who suck. Maybe something else sucks around here… like, the public. Yeah, the public sucks. There’s a nice campaign slogan for somebody: 'The Public Sucks. Fck Hope. Because if it is really just the fault of the politicians then where are all the other bright people of conscience? Where are all the bright, honest, intelligent Americans ready to step in and save the nation and lead the way? We don’t have people like that in this country. Everybody’s at the mall, scratchin’ his ass, pickin’ his nose, takin’ his credit card out of his fanny pack and buyin’ a pair of sneakers with lights in them. So, I have solved this little political dilemma for myself in a very simple way. On Election Day, I stay home. I don’t vote. Fck ’em! Fck ’em! I don’t vote. Two reasons. Two reasons I don’t vote. First of all, it’s meaningless. This country was bought and sold and paid for a long time ago. This shit they shuffle around every four years? Pfft! Pfft! It doesn’t mean a fcking thing. And secondly, I don’t vote because I believe if you vote you have no right to complain. People like to twist that around, I know. They say, ‘Well, if you don’t vote you have no right to complain.’ But where’s the logic in that? If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people and they get into office and screw everything up, well, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused the problem. You voted them in. You have no right to complain. I, on the other hand…who did not vote…who did not vote…who, in fact, did not even leave the house on Election Day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and have every right to complain as loud as I want about the mess you created that I had nothing to do with. So, I know that a little later on this year you’re gunna have another one of those really swell presidential elections that you like so much [Bill Clinton v. Bob Dole]. You enjoy yourselves; it’ll be a lot of fun. I’m sure as soon as the election is over your country will improve immediately. As for me, I’ll be home on that day, doing essentially the same thing as you. The only difference is, when I get finished jerking it, I’m gunna have a little something to show for it, folks.” – George Carlin

    If youve been voting in assholes agains and again and again amd again for decades and decades and decades… then …maybe voting is useless and you need to resort to more ‘direct’ forms of interventions when you want to see things change in your community …


  • And thats kinda where the term ‘liberal’ comes from

    It means that they want to ‘LIBERALly restructure and readjust the capitalistic economy and societies so thst these ecoonomies and society favour them and their cronies’

    There has NEVER been a liberal ideology that has explicitly stated we shall destroy capitalism eternally. They always say ‘structurally readjust capitalism’

    Meanwhile the socialists and anarchists are the ONLY people who have ever said they want to eternally destroy capitalistic economids and societies to thst they favour the workers collectively or that they favour individual , loose communities .

    Anyone who calls themselves a ‘leftist’ but isnt an anarchist or socialist can EASILY be outed as a rightist with a. few questions. I have never encountered a single person that has proven that Im wrong about this. And I never will lol.





  • "Socialism: Utopian and Scientific”

    If ANY person calls themselves a socialist or ‘communist’ and hasnt read this yet ? They belong in a psych ward in my opinion. The only type of socialism that can possibly exist is scientific socialism.
    . The collective scientific material conditions and scientific psychological conditions of the average persons should be what spurs the majority of the people into a deathly amalgamation into lethal force and lethal action to create a socialistic society or a socialistic world that eternally executes the bourgeoisies . And also I beleive that itlf the people , through their collective experience, want to create a deathly amalgamation to create a lethal force that creates a world thst leads to self-destructive nuclear holocaust ? So be it. I wouldnt support the second scenario but I would also be powerless to stop it. Who are we to to stpp the majority of people once theyve set their mind to something? You as one random person or as one random intellectual or as one random billionaire cannot slam down your ideas onto the people and make them follow cause youre just one weak insignifisct person and they outnumber you . It is up to the people to rise up collectively in their million and even billions to come together to get something that they want from the groups that they outnumber.

    “Always remember , the sheep outnumber the worlves. Always have and always will.” (Idont remember ewho said this quote but they coooooked)

    Thats basically the gist I got from that article

    So thats why I believe (and Im fucking right) thst most people today are VERY okay with the world we live in today. Because if most people were not okay with the world thst we have today, why have most of the people in most countries not amalgamated into a lethal , destructive, heavily-disruptive force that stops the economy and changes the world so that our demands change from our policymakers ans billionaires ? We The People, We The Workers outnumber billionaires po liticians, army officials, police officers and sepcial ops operatives in the thousands and thousands. We could EAAAASILY win ANY war against them… but people arent doing that…so that must mean thst most people are OK with the current genocidal and crapitalistic world we live in today lol. Nobody has ever been able to refute me when I bring this point up. And nobody shall ever be able to refute this.

    People ALWAYS talk talk talk about ‘oH PolItiCiaNs SucK’ ‘oh bIllIoNAIreS aND OlIgArChS SucK’ ‘WeNeEd To ChAnGe OuR cuRrEnT aDopTiOnS aNd foSteR cArE sYsTeMs sO cHilDreN aRe SafEr’ ‘We gOtTa cHanGe ThInGs CaUse OuR jUstIcrE SysTeMs sUcKs!1!1!1’ . If you go to the comments sections of ANY trrue crime video on youtube youll A.L.W.A.Y.S. see comments like these … but then these same people never DO anything to ensure that this ‘change’ is brought about… hmmm …funny thing that lol

  • …umm ya. Socialism was created by Marx because he knew that humans, as stupid , genocidal , and self destructive as we are, would have difficulty embracing as good of an idea as comkunism so he proposed that socialism is a ‘transitory thing’ or transitory phase that leads to a communistic sociaety because as we have seen a trillion times whenone society embraces socialism anither capitalistic society will genocide the people there or even force the people embracing socialism to change their minf

    We saw this in Korea at the hands of the canadians and americans, We saw this in Indonesia at the hands of the amedicans again. We saw this in Vietnam at thr hands of the french , then the japanese , then the americans. We saw this with the Congolese a tthe hands of the belgians and americans . And even in CHile at the hands of the americans

    We have seen this exact scenario play out snd we will continue time and time again to see this scenario play out…
