I genuinely can’t tell whether this is satire or not.

A socialist state will always be recaptured by capital. The state must be smashed, repeatedly and relentlessly, until no state can ever rise again.

I dunno… get a nice, well-intentioned, thoughtful, compassionate and caring person with an intellectual disability into office, they’d listen to advisors, work well with others, they wouldn’t assume they already know best about every situation… I think it would work out pretty well, to be honest!

You absolutely can ridicule someone’s lack of competence, for sure, because competence isn’t an inherent trait. Intelligence and competence aren’t really causally linked. Sure, someone with an intellectual disability might not be the world’s greatest chess player, for example, but for most people with an intellectual disability, with more than an average amount of practice, they can beat an average player.

I think “tripped over his own dick” is fine, that doesn’t suggest to me “he’s bad because he has mobility issues”, it’s more like carelessness.

Remember as well that you don’t need to be perfect, nobody is acting or expecting that. All we can all do is try our best and if we hurt people, take accountability and apologise to them. No one always gets it right and it’s okay to get it wrong, so long as you’re not being stubborn and refusing to change because you don’t care about the feelings of others, people will be fine with it!

The ableism is coming from inside the house - it’s not a bad thing to be intellectually disabled. The problem with Trump is not that he’s stupid, it’s that he’s a selfish, careless, thoughtless, cruel, ignorant asshole.

Using words like “stupid” as an insult implies that all people lacking in intellect or wisdom are also bad people.

The death toll of capitalism is much, much higher than any of us can imagine. We should aim to have the most peaceful revolution possible, but we also should be realistic, and I know for a fact that the ruling class aren’t going to go without a fight. We can starve them out, I believe, for the most part, but yeah, there will definitely be death and suffering, I can’t deny that. But a lot of people are dying NOW. And for nothing. We can at least die trying to make a better world. That’s something I’m willing to die for.

I’m wondering when the rest of you guys are going to realize that electoralism is a huge waste of time, effort and energy. Elections are a distraction to make us think we can effect change through the system. But the problem IS the system. There is only one way forward, and it’s through a revolution that abolishes the entire existing structures of power.

We need to accept this reality, so we can actually start the long process of how to achieve that.

i don’t see the problem? just keep killing whoever is in charge until nobody tries anymore. permenent revolution.

btw, your definition of fascism would also fit like pretty much all nations, and your definition of anarchism is like someone knew a bit of greek and tried to guess. an-archy, against heirarchy, boom done!

capitalism is when people are prejudiced against money and freedom is when you don’t have to pay at the BDSM club

i’ve put way more thought into it than you have, considering you were calling me a fascist before and now you’re ridiculing me for being an anarchist

if you can describe fascism and anarchism in your own words i’ll delete my account

of course there would, there would be approximately 8 billion people still alive

there would be no power vacuum because there would be no power - all forms of power that might have been siezed in a power struggle would have been dissolved

the result would be a classless, moneyless, stateless society. Each of us would only need to work approximately 10 hours per day or so to ensure that everyone in the world has all of their needs met and a decent standard of living.

the society we currently have is based on slavery, exploitation, murder and theft. i’m not saying that i have a perfect solution, but we need to abolish capitalism at the very least, or fascism will remain inevitable

we’re never going to see an end to the risk of fascism until we end capitalism, and it’s as simple as that.

money is power, and if corporations and individuals can hoard wealth infinitely, it’s only a matter of time until enough of that wealth is accumulated in few enough hands for those few to use their wealth to take control of the state

you’re not powerless, far from it - but you need to exert your power before 2026 and 2028 if you want your vote to matter.

your power comes from your ability to go on strike and sabotage, not from voting

i wouldn’t be trying to will socialism into existence, though, i’d just be having a little fun :3

i would completely dismantle the economy, the police force, the military, prisons, and the government. i would cease the recognition of all countries and borders.

but yes you’re right, i’m willing to use violence to make the world a better place, because i believe that i’m right, and i’m not scared of sacrificing all that i have and all that i am to achieve that.

i wouldn’t be able to peacefully retire, of course, i would need to be brought to justice for my crimes, but i would gladly accept the punishment, because it’s the right thing to do, and i know i would reduce the suffering of billions.

i still think you’re assuming what my actual, real-life views are from a silly what-if scenario! i am never gonna be in control of anything more powerful than a barbeque.

but if somehow i got to mind control the president or something, yes, i’d take advantage of that brief control to eliminate as many capitalists as possible

i’m not going to get into a debate about it, because i have better things to do, sorry.

i would agree that the USSR was socialist, but very quickly stopped being so, and now it is capitalist. that’s not what i call a success.

any marxist who thinks that the USSR or China is an example of a successful revolution is either ignorant, delusional, or worst of all, a tankie.

they had some early successes but were immediately co-opted. motherfuckers need to learn about permenent revolution.

now neither country is socialist, both are imperialist and well on their way towards fascism

yeah, the USSR and China are not examples of successful revolutions, neither of those countries are communist

yeah you’re not a leftist, you have no fucking idea what fascism is if you think what i wrote was fascistic, lmfao

violence against oppressors isn’t fascism, it’s justice.

don’t get me wrong, if the choice for a non-violent revolution is there, i would take it every time.

but if, somehow, i magically became the president without any kind of revolutionary effort, that’s what i would do, and i would be totally justified in doing so
