Most things should be...

Yeah and generally via collective ownership you can ensure people the right to live in a house

It's also a question about budget. I think the government should also prioritise maintaning the house

But whilst we're bringing up examples; I've been to Cuba and their entitled houses aren't really that bad

wtf are you talking about

they have internet cards

I'd know

Not really, and if so the government doesn't seem to mind

Mostly because literally everyone there has it

But anyway I don't see how this is relevant

I never said I was for prohibiting internet access, I should said that having a public option for housing would be beneficial

Said*

Which country do you live in?

I agree with the fact that Cuba is definitely too authorian on that matter, but my point was a public option doesn't have to mean bad maintainance

Not really though. Cubas boycott means they can't really prioritise anything, so I'm saying with a budget

it wouldn't be a problem

Not to mention Soviet Unions budget focused on war

And in the US

I wouldn't exactly say USA is an amazing capitalist country

take a look at this; http://www.bbc.com/news/health-35073966

The reason why USSR had to focus on military was mostly due to ww2 and getting threats from everywhere

Which they mostly lost due to imperialism

Which in it's self is betreyal to anything leftist

Imperialism is the nature of capitalism

Not civilisation

You had primitive civilisations

without a state

USSR being imperialist doesn't prove that imperialism is also leftist

A commune can be a state, but it doesn't have to

Doesn't have to be for ideological reasons

I can have a bad habit of crucifying ;P

But yeah all ideologies are puritanism

How?

Because it is

Elders weren't always leaders, my dude

Okay which class were in charge of this state? Exactly how'd this state use violence to keep the "proletariat" down?

Or slave owners

It's relevant because Seedle for example believes in the immediate destruction of the state (I assume) And I believe that when the proletariat has taken over the state and is done with it

it'll die out

Though I'm not too sure how ancom works

Sorry libcom*

In which case I'm even more confused

Yeah a state needs to force violence upon a certain class

without that it wont really function as a state

brb

Hello 😃

Speaking of books. I've read the capital and state and the revolution, but what do I read next?

Very accepting I see

I'm from Norway and I'd say the main problem is really just how we treat refugees. I've worked at a centre that helps them with food etc

And they get a lot of shit for no reason

I'm going to be honest, I think that the refugees I've talked with are some of the most humble people I've talked to

What's your tendencies?

Eyo

I'm a trot

What's the most common tendency here?

Ah ditto

Good shit

I've never actually tasted Dr Pepper before

FeelsEuropeMan

Well, I've always found cough syrup to be pretty okay when I was little

Oh sounds good

Trying to make IMT establish in my country :/ unfortunately there's only like 1 other guy interested

International Marxist Tendencies

lol

4chan twitch raids are the best

Oh, Leftypol has some raids occasionally

Thoughts on the situation in Spain?

Damn

Shoulda watched out

Oh shid, might be a double agent. Where the fuck is the hammer and sigd?

FeelsCapitalismMan

Yeah, along with "The left can't meme"

Feel like politically memes are generally a bit stale tbh

Sorry political*

Hahaha, he definitely had good theories and observations :)

I don't have too much of a life. I mostly just sit inside and read

Why is there a stereotype about the left not having jobs?

It's actually kinda annoying ;P

deep shit

Well I also spend time as an activist

But yeah

Also spend time trying to decide to change party or not

Also looks aren't really related to having a social life or not

Also I don't know about US, but where I'm from the leftist politicians are way better looking

but that's subjective

I don't doubt that, but it's rather weird how you can just drag everyone into the same "stereotype"

I mean i can confidently say that i've got a lot of friends

I happen to know centrists that are more shut down that me. That's probably because politics is irrelevant to this cause

Well to be honest it's also a lot to do with where you search for certain people

you're not going to find conservative male models at /pol/

but maybe somewhere else

if that made sense

Doesn't provent you from being a revolutionairy, but a productive one

God english isn't my strongest side

Sorry
