Doesn't it seem reasonable that the idea of trying to create a classless society would be a task better suited for those who come after us? For example, the promise of socialism is that democracy is then increased to be available to the wider masses of people. Socialist societies have in the past, and even in the modern day, demonstrate that they're able to make huge leaps in social progress that enable more people than ever before be able to participate in the democratic processes of a society. I guess I'm not convinced that the idea that "Leninsts would not break down their own state" is something which is provable, and thus not a useful heuristic for making decisions. So what if "Leninists" aren't capable of the next step in the growth of humanity, it's been shown that they'll give up on their power much more peacefully than societies dominated by the bourgeois class ever will (even and especially communist officials who didn't benefit from the transition to liberal governance). If we're able to save the planetary ecosystem with cybernetic planning, end hunger, guarantee housing and work for those who're able and a good life for those who aren't as the "Leninists" demand; won't we have left our children with far more fertile soil for an anarchist society than if we simply struggle directly for a classeless society today?
Are we allowed to have discussion on these points in this thread? Because one thing I never understood is the idea that the socialist projects have to wither away so fast, I never got how anyone thought we were at any time in modern history at a point where the coordination created by socialist States could be torn down safely while preserving the gains made.
With the richest countries in the world and many of their colonies, with all the nukes and military one could imagine, breathing down on your doorstep I don't know how it's rational to think that you should then begin tearing down the structures which were then only created out of historical necessity to fight against these very forces. Do Anarchists (capital A) generally believe that the period for communist parties to prove they can transition towards a classless society has passed, and that they've somehow proven they're incapable? Or do they think that the chance hasn't been available yet but that if it was then communists would then prove themselves incapable of transitioning towards communism?
Iran please boost my tweets
Iran please give me some money to help overthrow the US challenge
I'd rather have a rail spike misfire and shoot me in the brain
I hope you stay safe!
We used to be a country (the Soviet Union )
Critical theoretical difference: that relates to real life movements whereas this is somebody on the internet who posted a discord link with almost no context on leftist forums. I think pbpza will survive a fedposting reply written half as a joke whereas the consequence for a real person in a real action or organization having the same done to them are dire.
Damn this looks sick as fuck
No, I don't think it's effective in any way, I think other users are correct when they note that this is a clearly ineffectual method of protesting that clearly has the potential for blowback like this; however, this still doesn't mean that those who respond in such a way aren't the biggest rubes on the planet.
