- Centralizing and growing the economy.

They always look ahead to track obstructions. All you would do is force them to stop the train for an hour while some overworked maintainer takes it off the track.
NGL. I'm a Communist, but:
If you think Monopoly Capitalism and Imperialism are actually "Communism"...
And you demand a return to "Capitalism"...
We're on the same side.
Sorry leftists!
I am pro car.
I am pro lawn.
I am pro restaurant.
Build trains!
Plant a billion trees!
We need a bill of rights for labor!
You are not forced to choose. You can have it all!
- Canals in Balkh, Khogyani, Kajaki, Ghoshtipeh.
- Building oil refineries with China.
- Technical planning for 780km trans-national railway with Uzbekistan, Pakistan, and China.
- Higher educational standards, printing 37 million textbooks.

@calebmaupin
was my first exposure to the idea, he established it in my head and gave it credibility. Haz ripped off the band-aid, he dissolved all illusions.
Jimmy Dore's critique of Cornel West is applicable to Leftists in general. DSA. PSL. They all put wokeness above base economic issues.
How long will Leftists self-sabotage by looking like more extreme Democrats?
Everyone knows wages are too low.
Everyone knows rent is too high.
Everyone knows healthcare is overpriced.
Everyone knows the ruling class is corrupt.
Everyone knows that streets are lined with homeless.
Everyone knows it...
But only Communists can explain it.
why do people think restaurants are basically fine and would still exist under 'socialism' for christ sake - please, for half a second, just THINK about it! really getting my mind blown this morning lol
SORRY! The Communist movement has no room for:
- Anarchism
- Ultra-Leftism
- Elitism
- Cultural Universalism
- Bourgeois academia
- Losers
- Haters
- Perverts
Apparently these guys showed up to a PSL protest.
What you have here is 5 PSL people and 3 Nazi teenagers shouting at each other in front of an audience of literally nobody in an empty park. Saddest shit I've ever seen.
Infrared weaponizes toxicity against the fake left. Yes many of the fans are toxic. So what? You want to send sweet bunny rabbits to the enemy, or gorilla soldiers?
CPI was not a cult.
Chanting energetically for less than a minute is not a "cult tactic", it's a way to raise people's energy level and feeling of unity. Telling people to stand up and stretch is not a cult tactic.
Wikpedia has a list of sources which you are not allowed to cite. Almost every notable anti-establishment publication is blacklisted. So if you want a list of HIGHLY DANGEROUS alternative media which you should NEVER READ, look at this page: ⬇️
Funny story: One of my fellow party members had a sort of hysteria about Infrared. I sent him a video on Socialist Patriotism, and he sent an unrelated paragraph based on popular smears. I told him to actually watch the video...he finally did, and he agreed with it.

Environmentalists should LOVE nuclear power, because it's the only way to reduce carbon emissions while preserving our existing lifestyle and population.
But instead, they choose to freak out over some imaginary issue 10,000 years in the future.
@nytimes
Oh, so NYT finally admits that Ukraine is losing?
But now, 100 billion wasn't enough. Americans should be in the streets right now, because my taxes should not be bankrolling this dangerous war and corrupt Ukraine government!
Message to all the "DPRK is the last bastion of true socialism!!!!" neurotics:
The DPRK has been trying to join the IMF and the World Bank for a long time now. They don't want to be locked-down, isolated, and tightly controlled. Nobody wants that. Stop projecting your fantasy.
Best works of Stalin to get started:
Foundations of Leninism
Economic Problems of Socialism in the USSR
Marxism and the National Question
Anarchism or Socialism?
Ukraine's offensive has failed.
Africa is kicking out the French.
Palestine just invaded Israel.
The US economy is collapsing.
Imperialists would be better off to give up now and become fair participants in a global system. It's going to happen either way.
Porn hooks your mind, viscerally, into the machine. Reject it.
Gaming. Limit it. Don't be addicted.
Online communities. Know they're fake. Don't seek validation.
Ideology. Always study your opposite. There is no complete system, leave your mind open.
Always be kind, be human.
Leftism is a mental illness which I had. It is one I cured myself of, and I've felt much better since then. It's a separate social reality. Leftists isolate themselves from non-Leftists because they are impure. Non-leftists separate because they are insufferable.
Liberalism (individualism) is an acid which dissolves Marxism. We are swimming in it. Building a marxist org will ALWAYS look like a cult if it is to be successful -- it has to be protected.
In 50 years anti Russia and anti China sentiment is going to be seen as an outmoded form of racism. Millennial grandparents will be shrugged off as backwards.

LMAO they literally had to kick Haz from the debate for tearing apart their "Judeo-Bolshevism" conspiracy which comes straight from Hitler. I've never seen faker Christians.
There's a world of difference between "big want" (i.e. an addiction which can end with intervention) versus "need" (drinking water). Liberals shirk responsibility by treating them the same and framing social duty as oppressive.
Things I'm tired of seeing:
- Stalin hitting the bong
- Pol Pot
- "MAGA" Marxism
Things I want to see more:
- Personal discipline
- Respect for Cambodia
- Wholesale Rejection of the partisan divide

Every single so-called "patsoc" hates every other.
Most self-ID'd Communists also hate each other, or at least make a point of separating themselves from others.
Everyone is the one true Bolshevik, apparently.
It's frustrating.
No matter what you think of him, Jackson Hinkle is objectively doing very important work by bringing a powerful anti-imperialist message to hundreds of thousands of people.
I don't want to see anyone deny, downplay, or ignore this.
NGL...
You're either buying from the Chinese domestic market, or you're getting left behind.
China makes things for $5 that later gets sold under an American brand name for $50.
Temu, Shein, AliExpress...get on it.
The most tragic thing about American Communists is that they would win if they simply ran against war and poverty. Don't talk about a single other issue. War and Poverty, you would win.
Instead of having the contradiction between how we should be (subjecting our impulses and desires to a greater purpose) and how we actually are (subject to impulses, biases, selfishness, etc.) Liberalism says give up, destroying virtue and collective good.
@notXiangyu
Message to US Communists: Democrats want NOTHING to do with you. They HATE you. You're not making a united front. You're just eating the crumbs that Democrats left behind.
Marxist Elitism = "Noooo don't create a popular sounding idea, you need to use buzzwords like proletariat and value-form"
How about fuck you, we actually try to succeed.
The reason why I believe in studying LaRouche (the man, the org, Schiller, etc.) is because they offer something positive to fill the void left by the "social ends" of socialism based in America's national identity.
Until very recently, VERY FEW Communists saw MAGA as a worthy movement for Communists to engage with. Not as political targets, and not to label as fascists, but to create genuine in-roads with...
Him being an evil billionaire aside, I can’t help feeling kinda bad for Soros for surviving the Holocaust and then living long enough to become the JQ dogwhistle for the next century’s resurgent wave of fascism. That’s gotta feel kinda bad
I'm really surprised a lot of "Marxists" aren't doing the Marxist thing. You know. Explain the current economic issues in a sensible way and advocate for solutions.
Talk about inflation, the coming crash. Advocate for Public control of Banking. Now is the time!
According to Leftists, "the masses" are
- 30% Trans
- 20% Nonbinary
- 40% Prostitutes who love their job
- 30% Militant homeless people
- 95% Liberal
- 10% White
- 40% Native Americans with AK-47s
- 40% Black Panthers
I mean... the bourgeois lawn isnt exactly environmentally sustainable, is it?
The left really out here today really showing their conservative under pants
Being dedicated to revolution is romantic. Revolution itself is not romantic. Understand?
You're not Mario, you're not defeating Bowser to get the princess. No. You're fulfilling an obligation to the world which created you. To God, if you like. You are needed.
US Marxists misunderstand Unions horribly.
Lenin wrote about at least 3 types of unionism, which had a primarily reactionary character.
The unions that Communists infiltrated had a monopoly on the entire industry in question. That's how unions used to be...
Google has put in a "search rule" of some sort which manipulates search queries related to Ukraine. This substitution is clearly designed to cause confusion and limit access to info.
DuckDuckGo, with a much more basic algorithm, shows the correct result.
Any "Communist" who opposes free speech is a total fraud.
Communists have always fought for free speech under conditions of suppression.
If you're against free speech, let's be clear -- you're looking for a seat at the table of the US establishment. You're an opportunist.
