The aim of the state is to resolve contradictions and conflicts in mass society
You can’t have a stateless society without reverting to a prior social form
Centralization isn’t necessarily a problem, the problem comes when the state forgets who it is accountable to.
The state isn’t an organism that remembers or forgets things, that kind of organic conception of the state is actually fascist and derived from Spengler etc. it’s a bureaucracy, and that’s ok.
I’m a managerialist, new world order now
Actually communism, fascism and liberal democracy are all forms of managerial govt
Only one survived
If you actually compare the ideologies from as unbiased a standpoint as possible, Stalinism much more closely resembles Strasserism than it does Communism. I’d go as far as to say that real Communism as an ideology died when Leon Trotsky was assassinated by one of Stalin’s thugs.
It’s easy to say that when we don’t know what Trotsky would have done if actually in power...the failure of international revolution made it somewhat inevitable that the USSR would have been an authoritarian nationalist state...would Trotsky have made a difference? I’m not convinced
International revolution could have happened at least within the confines of an expanding, imperialist USSR if it had taken the effort to replace Russian nationalism with global Proletarian identity. Convincing workers of other countries that they shared the interests of the USSR could have led to more successful revolutions and eventual assimilation into the Union.
I identify with Mournier’s personalist manifesto but idk how that would look like in practice...ideology is mostly LARPing for intellectuals
Hard to convince them that they shared the interests of the USSR when the USSR was busy being imperialist and stoking nationalist fears in other countries
But relitigating history isn’t very enlightening, things happened the way they did and moving forward without falling into purity spirals is the best praxis
@Deleted User ur shit makes no sense
What?
@Kek Because that really worked good with china and russia.
Wtf is this https://youtu.be/Gei9vdYmmSw
also fun fact the communist party USA is going to turn 100 years old next year
it was founded in 1919
it just shows how much free speech we have in this country
it's astonishing that a party like this could be around for so long
(and not gain any momentum whatsoever lole)
also, this turns 60 years old next year
equally astonishing
@Brickiest Brick >When a party founded in the 60's get's more done than a party thas existed since the 10's.
