For a historical materialism which has annihilated within itself the idea of progress.
Chinese history enjoyer
Autonomist. Messianic materialist.

@ProleOtter Most problems are downstream of Kautsky or Bernstein. One of those two.

Walter Benjamin never died. He simply went into occultation.

Marx's sin was being too right too early

[LaMarx @footnotes2marx]

@WeGhoStyle So how does it follow that it’s a necessity in China? Do all precapitalist relations, which capital still instrumentalizes for it’s development, need to be overcome first? Or, were the productive forces in existence in conflict with productive relations in the 1840s, 1914?

Tapping the sign again.

@svetapalasha The guy who said Capitlism was a prerequisite for a communist state? Are you stupid?

@pashtunmarxism @NondescriptRed Dengists often seem to have a distinctly American-libertarian view of what socialism is

[Pashtunmarxism @pashtunmarxism]

States tend to regulate capital in general (as a whole class) because particular capitals aren’t fully aligned and do inter fight

[LaMarx @footnotes2marx]

@WeGhoStyle The world revolution failed and thus the Russian particularity of that revolution failed, which has nothing to do with the points made by Marx in that letter.

[LaMarx @footnotes2marx]

And, for good measure, the question once again arises: at what point in the course of the development of the productive forces do they become a hindrance due to the existing relations of production? At what point do they become destructive forces?

Mayakovsky was called a "Trotskyist" and harassed into suicide for simply making a satire critique of the bureaucracy

"Marx says that revolutions are the locomotive of world history. But perhaps it is quite otherwise. Perhaps revolutions are an attempt by the passengers on this train – namely, the human race – to pull the emergency brake."

@epstfound Progress is an empty notion.

You are a denialist and should be treated as such if you don’t recognize that the US has been, from its founding, violently expansionist. From the systematic dispossession of indigenous peoples on the continent to territories elsewhere, down to construction of an economic bloc

[Corey Walker 🇺🇸 @CoreyWriting]

The University of Maryland has assigned the anti-American book “How to Hide an Empire” as the official all-school read for incoming freshmen. This is also apparently in commemoration of America 250!

This book depicts America as an expansionist, imperialist empire.

No wonder our students end up hating the country and supporting anti-American regimes.

let’s see how conservatives are handling conservation!
oh right, they don’t value a thing that can’t be incorporated into or instrumentalized by capital, accumulation, and profit, whether it’s nature, technology, or people.

[American Conservation Coalition @ACC_National]

Conservatives are taking back conservation!

If you care about conserving America's natural heritage and helping grow the conservative environmental movement, chip in and claim your shirt today:

[NaijaMarxist @NaijaMarxist]

Hammer and sickle in name but supporting a repackaged neoliberal in practice.

Communism is just an aesthetic for national development at this point

[LaMarx @footnotes2marx]

Primitive accumulation is “so-called” because it is an ongoing process, one that is still continuing as I type this post. Read Capital.

[LaMarx @footnotes2marx]

The history of the capitalist mode of production is the forceful divorce of small producers from their means of production, their violent incorporation into the world market, their concentration in capitalist firms. Capital comes into the world dripping blood from every pore.
