I fear a theoretical error has been widely accepted by mainstream marxists, that being that socialism is a dictatorship of the proletariat.

I ask you, when has marx used the term to describe socialism?
Remember socialism abolished commodity production, this involves...

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

@ksorbs The government might also take it to build a data centre on top of it, because the government works for the rich.

And we wonder why, when the landlords buy up all the housing and the cost of living goes up, fertility goes down.

Some people complain about woke or some other nonsense about women not wanting kids, but this is nonsense, the economy is stopping women having kids!

[Katie Miller @KatieMiller]

Australia’s fertility rate has plummeted.

They’ve hit the lowest rate in history at 1.48 — well below the 2.1 replacement rate.

The average age of mothers was 25 in 1971, and now it’s 32.

This is a human catastrophe.

@polen_ball Stalin in economic problems:

"When instead of the two basic production sectors... there will be only one all-embracing production sector... commodity circulation... will disappear"

At least read Stalin if you wish to critique Stalinists.

@Alea1actaEst8 @NathanJRobinson It's not two tier, as far as they know the indian guy is telling the truth, though had they actually done anything to help Novak then he could have explained that the indian guy stabbed HIM.
This IS about how cops treat people!

[Nathan J Robinson @NathanJRobinson]

The right is framing this as a story about how white people are mistreated, but it's actually a story about what cops are like. This is how they treat people!!

@ChrisLoesch The invasion of Iran, in which a few Americans have died, and which was started by the US and Israel, which serves both Israeli and American foreign interests.

@ThroatyChunk Yes I know, it's a rhetorical question of sorts, since the take is so odd, je couldn't possibly believe it, right?

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

This moron is calling the workers parasites?

Capitalism got rid of poverty and hunger for some but expanded it for others. You look out your window at some comfy town in the US and think "this is capitalism", however we have countries like India and Africa, where poverty reigns almost absolutely. It's all Capitalism.

[Chris Freiman @cafreiman]

Capitalism eliminates poverty and hunger, and would similarly eliminate homelessness if the housing market weren’t overregulated and profit-seeking capitalists were free to build more housing in response to rising prices.

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

This is somewhat a wholesome view

[Michael Orthodox ☦ @Michaeldudufudu]

I unironically believe we should never make fun of transgenders who kill themselves. There's a serious chance they could be in hell and we really dont know what type of mental struggles they went through leading up to their suicide.

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

@sonofthecobra @greyxday It's almost like their socia views were progressive but still tied up with their time period.
Who could have known this?

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

Robert Owen already tried this and he realised it wasn't enough.

What these fools don't understand is that Communism is a mode of production, not just capitalism but some "fairer" distribution and everything is locally owned.

[Rock Chartrand @RockChartrand]

Because you're too lazy to start a co op despite claiming it's the superior model.

Nothing stops workers from pooling their resources, sharing ownership, and competing in the market today. The reason most don't is because running a business requires far more than showing up for a shift.

The irony is that socialists insist workers should run society, yet rarely demonstrate a willingness to run even a business. Instead of building alternatives, they demand political power to seize what others have already built.

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

One will notice the phrase "not in the bourgeois sense of the word".

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

Marx expands on this in Gotha, the Proletariat must take power in their own state first while still pursuing internationalism and there is certainly no place for bourgeois nationalism among the Proletariat.

[Darth Kyle Broflovski Khan ☭🇨🇳🇷🇺🇵🇸🇮🇰🇵 @Shao_Khan001]

Interesting that people who think that National Nihilism is compatible with Communism never cite the rest of that paragraph. Wonder why that is 🤔

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

Respect is one thing, revere is another. You should not revere people but respect them for their accomplishmentire because no one is perfect and should be worshipped.

[Camel ⛏️ @contagiousglory]

@AliceBright_ We revere Lenin because he was the symbol of everything a communist should aspire to; courageous, ascetic, steadfast, devoted and absolute. He made many mistakes, and indeed some of them paved the way for Stalin, but he also revolutionized Marxist theory and practice,

Didn't the name have a curse on it?

[Capital-O Opinions @damespjuffy]

Calling J.K. Rowling "she that shall remain nameless" is very funny considering that the "he who must not be named" thing is clearly presented as a sign of fear and cowardice that the hero of the story rejects.

[COMCOM @darealCOMCOM2]

It's called a metaphor
