The sum of all actions by people in day to day life can be accurately described in such a brief sentence that it sits in my mind daily: The desire to be free.
@brightredbanner Lenin said something in State and Revolution I think that captures this perfectly,
"...so that when we talk about organisation, we literally talk in different tongues."
Debate is pointless in most spaces because their fundamental positions are incoherent to eachother.
The Bosnian SS literally revolted (the only SS unit to do so), killed their German officers and tried to defect to the allies before they’d even seen combat
@bloopperi They dusagree with Trotsky and Lenin's fundamental views:
Direct arming of the proletariat
Organization of the proletariat
A post-market economic system
Party democracy
Factions within party
All factors are directly or indirectly influenced by economic and material conditions
None of those are legit reasons to be kicked out of a party. Especially carrying a knife. Many of the left refused to defend the Prairieland members simply cuz they brought guns to a protest. Utter moralist bs.
@heatherchungus@NewPerspectives Party work is too soon, it would be better to try to work among workers right now, before workers can be organized in a party they must first be organized in their workplace
pictured below: a PSL organiser instructing a member to monitor a trans woman living with another member of the party because "there is a tendency for trans women to take advantage of others" due to "being needier"
There's so many parties with hush hush terf behavior, RCI, PSL, I would say ACP is just explicit about it. These people haven't read theorists, they don't care about Marxist analysis, if they did, they would recognize that the forced identity of gender not only enslaves women, men, nonbinary, transgender, to a certain economic duty, but it arises out of that certain economic duty. Gender roles came from material conditions, the lack of their elevation, and the duty of Communists is to overcome the enslavement of the individual to the household, and bring about a system which propagates uncoerced choice.
