The entire concept of growing up, in fact the entire concept of childhood are social constructs designed to break your creativity and shape you into the perfect obedient worker for the rest of your life

I seriously never ever see a liberal consider reproductive labor as a form of work that should never compensated. Pretty disturbing tbh

Yes, naming streets after people is just a form of hero worshipping

Instead of saying I’m an anarchist I talk about things from an anarchist perspective without mentioning the word “anarchy”. I usually will defend communism because I consider myself communist, but if you mean socalled “communist” states, I’ll usually point out that none of them were actually communist

It is CBS news though so not like anyone should actually watch them anyways

Debate it, already got a decent idea about what it is

ML is goo difficult for me to engage in because there’s too much defense of stalin I find tbh. Maybe I’ll check out hexbear though

“Fascism is characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation” this describes the USSR pretty well. The US is also bordering on fascism, but that has little to do with the USSR. Those weren’t really labor camps so much as they were POW camps for fascist opponents. Also what’s your opinion on north korea?

Fascism is about power not private property. Not sure where you got that Spanish anarchists operated labor camps as I can’t see any evidence for that online but even if that was true, a system can’t be said not to be fascist because someone else did it. Having forced labor camps is fascist regardless. Also you say that they sought to repress those critical of socialism or communism, but it was usually used to repress basic forms of expression and those critical of the leaders.

How was the gulag system not fascist? Along with it’s heavy surveillance and censorship state?

The soviet union and north korea are the most obvious examples as both of them followed ML

You could look up the anarchist front in iran and Afghanistan. That’s not Iraq obviously but might interest you

In an anarchist society automation is amazing. In capitalism though it’s meh because as you say it puts people out of their jobs

Tbh the only form of marxism at this point that feels legitimate is council communism. ML is just red fascism now

This was a good response. What about marxists that support council communism? I don’t know much marx theory but I feel that council communism is different than a traditional state

This is pretty good to read even if it doesn’t completely answer my question it helps a lot

Yeah often feels like marxists seek the liberation of workers and no one else. Like communism is cool and all but the concept of a dictatorship of a proletariat, when done correctly, gives workers all the power over everyone else. While workers having power is definitely good, it would mean workers could dominate and oppress any other group that doesn’t or can’t work like disabled people. That’s why anarchism is way better

Great read. People believing they have the right to eat meat is clearly based on the fact that they believe humans to be supreme and above other nonhumans

So true

This is good thank you
