Your opportunism is murder, you have no right to carve out a place in a society whose essence is rolling genocide

Everyone thinks they'll be Engels, everyone is proven wrong, everyone negotiates the terms of their exit from the struggle anyways

[RNA2(they/she) @RNAfrikan]

Most of you are going to retire comfortable and content and having accomplished nothing, politics being a hobby youve attached your identity to

You cretins have the nerve to throw around "comrade" like you have any real plans beyond survive and hope for the best

D*e cowards

"The culture war is a distraction from the class war" is a distraction from the class war.

Culture and class are inextricable, especially when one class has the ability to violently impose their culture on another class, and one culture dominates the class hierarchy.

When my ritual to sacrifice foreign kids failed so now moloch is also eating MY babies (instead of *just* foreign babies like usual) and it's obviously the fault of the one group I constantly dismiss as powerless (who somehow became all powerful just for this elecrion).

@joniniplo @denpanopticon I decided to watch Porco Rosso a couple weeks ago not expecting it to be like some revolutionary insightful work at all and still managed to be disappointed with how little they do with the movie being set in fascist Italy despite constantly reminding you about it

"it's morally wrong to not give money to the petty bourgeoisie" is in fact petty bourgeois moralism.

commission seeking artists are petty bourgeois. living by selling the fruits of your labor rather than your labor itself is the point of distinction between petty booj and prole

@potterypannel @inkblotPrincess That is what he thinks lol. I do appreciate how serious he takes game design and I think his posts on action games are very insightful, but his view on game design as a whole is very formulaic so I understand why he’s so divisive

🔴Debunking the Myth That North American Protest Culture Ended the Vietnam War: The Hippie "Counterculture" Was Not Revolutionary, but Hyper-Individualistic

Scene From Forrest Gump Film

The idea that the North American Left "ended the Vietnam War" is a liberal myth rooted more in bourgeois self-congratulation than revolutionary praxis. It flatters the petty-bourgeois intelligentsia and student movements, who, while vocal and visible, lacked the proletarian base and sustained political discipline necessary for genuine revolutionary change.

Let us be clear: Washington withdrew from Vietnam not because a generation of middle-class students waved peace signs and listened to Bob Dylan, but because the Vietnamese people, led by a disciplined revolutionary vanguard under Ho Chi Minh, waged a protracted people's war grounded in Marxist-Leninist principles. The cost in blood and treasure, alongside internal contradictions within imperialism, especially the crisis of legitimacy and declining profitability, compelled a strategic withdrawal.

Many of those who wore the garb of the “counterculture” were reactionaries in disguise rooted still in the ideology of private property, colonial privilege, and consumer individualism. When the draft ended and the stakes for their personal comfort diminished, many retreated into the institutions of capitalism becoming professors, consultants, and bureaucrats of the very state they once claimed to oppose.

Today’s protest culture around Palestine exhibits some of the same contradictions, though there are crucial differences. On the other, much of it is still mediated through the logic of liberal discourse, moral outrage, and social media spectacle.

This raises the question: What is protest without organization? What is dissent without a theory of class struggle? The system easily metabolizes symbolic resistance it markets it, platforms it selectively, and renders it harmless. A march that lacks the teeth of economic disruption or revolutionary organization does not threaten capital; it merely reaffirms its hegemonic tolerance.

The Palestine solidarity movement, for example, is driven by internationalist liberal ethics but without rooting this struggle in an anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist praxis, its capacity to challenge Washington foreign policy remains limited. Moreover, we must not forget that the North American working class disorganized, depoliticized, and racially stratified has yet to become a reliable base for international solidarity.

Protest ≠ Revolution: Symbolic protest is not equivalent to structural change. Without seizing the means of production and state power, protest movements are absorbed into the logic of capital.

The Class Composition of Protesters Matters: The petty bourgeoisie, students, and professionals often dominate protest scenes, but without alignment to proletarian interests and leadership, they risk reproducing bourgeois ideology under radical aesthetics.

Historical Amnesia: Many protesters invoke the Vietnam era without understanding its limitationsmistaking moral outrage for historical force, and substituting spectacle for strategy.

Revolutionary Consciousness Is Built, Not Performed: Solidarity with Palestine, or any oppressed people, must be grounded in a materialist understanding of imperialism, class, and the state not merely in the performance of dissent.

Crisis is Coming: The contradictions of capitalism economic inequality, ecological collapse, imperial overreach are intensifying. Protest culture will always be defused through spectacle and co-optation.

In conclusion, we must move beyond romanticized myths of the past and toward a revolutionary theory and practice rooted in class struggle, internationalism, and dialectical analysis. "The philosophers have only interpreted the world in various ways; the point, however, is to change it." The same goes for the protester. Interpretation without transformation is just another product in the marketplace of ideas.

[Crixiv 2 🇵🇸 @solzhenidiot]

North Americans will never change the system until they learn the basic fucking fact that everything they have been taught about how to change the system is lie taught to them BY THE SYSTEM to PREVENT THEM EVER CHANGING THE SYSTEM.

@SlghtlySthrn @ActualJeffBezos 2/ Physical books have been outclassed in their use. Owning shit for the sake of owning shit is blatantly bourgeois and you would know this if you actually cared about these concepts

[Mr_Ceppah @Mr_Ceppah]

@SlghtlySthrn @ActualJeffBezos “Let people enjoy things”, in practice, is a call for uncritical indulgence. The critics of the phrase aren’t calling telling you to become a Buddhist monk they’re telling you to actually think about why you enjoy things and if they’re worth enjoying in the first place. 1/

[Hei Wa Wa @yaqobhyndes]

This is unintentionally accurate to most historical empires. In fact I believe this whole contradiction is what makes an Empire an Empire. I don't think it's a coincidence that the US Civil Rights movement coincides with American global dominance and horrific warcrimes abroad

[wendy trevino @prolpo]

electoral politics are one thing & liberatory struggle is another. politicians like this can only ever be parasites on the latter. so yes that is just true--to the point i dont even want to talk about it anymore--but idk how anyone can watch politicians be politicians (who seem to have no shame) & not want to smack them
