Believing in a communist society has the same merit as believing in an Aryan supernation, their theories cannot come to fruition because they are not based in reality. Dialectical materialism is a poor way to describe history because it doesn't account for a plethora of other factors that cause history to ebb and flow
Religion, weather, social norms etc. Dialectics only refers to the class structure, in terms of marxism
This still doesn't address the fact that there is not historical precedent for a global communist society. There isn't even precedent for a national communist society. You are taking a big leap in logic by inferring that this stateless global order must form because of previous changes in the mode of production.
Society will change, but not in the drastic leap that communists believe will happen
Unless you hand control of the means of production to AI, then you may have a better argument
But that wouldn't be communism then because the proletarian would not exist
I'm talking about theory, even then I haven't done much research about a global AI order haha
The proletarian will be replaced by the AI in any case. The proletarian is subject to extinction within the next 60 years in fact
They tore it apart, then communists lit the remains on fire
The industrialization program was started by the tsar, the Soviets just continued it
@โญ Anon โญ I mean that there will no longer be a working class once AI can do any meaningful job, but faster
and more efficiently
Machines are coldly logical. Population growth will cause them to make the only logical decision. There is no such thing as post scarcity, as long as there are growing populations there will always be a struggle for resources
Food production has a maximum level, the earth does not have enough resources to support the population of the Earth if every nation can produce surpluses. In the short term there will be massive population growth but it is unsustainable in the long run
AI's growth is exponential, it is highly likely that we will see AI capable of handling the macro economy
We still have the same base problem though of population growth and climate change. Do we just keep spreading and using up every resource until we all starve?
AI, while incredibly useful, will cause a greater change to the global economy than the industrial revolution and it will come a million times faster and harder
By then its too late
Who controls the capital is irrelevant. It is the mode of production that will cause global problems, mainly industrial/tech based industries
Imagine a global dust bowl, that is the result of permanent mass agricultural production
We also don't need to produce that much food relatively speaking. In a hundred years much of the coastal population will move inward and impede on agricultural production. For the land that is used, it will have to be constantly used at maximum capacity
This will inevitably cause soil degradation, and later mass starvation
I'm talking about long term theory currently. This is my estimation of future events given historical precedent
It's actually pretty late by me currently. Thanks for the conversation guys, but I'm gonna get off
Replace Jew with bourgeoisie and German with Proletariat and you essentially have the backbone of communism
Communism and National Socialism are mirror images of each other
Equal and opposite
โThe Jews will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.โ โThe way to crush the Jews is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation.โ "How โtroublesomeโ! cried the Jewish pig, which deems itself educated, but in fact is dirty, repulsive, overfat and smug..."
Which quotes are from Nazis vs ones that are from communists but altered?
The same rhetoric is used against the bourgeois boogeyman. My point is the rhetoric is almost interchangeable
Anything that you claim is caused by the bourgeoisie can equally be said about Jews. Both ideologies play on peoples' fear of what essentially amounts to a global conspiracy
Also vice versa, change Jew for Bourgeois and you have communist rhetoric
The existence and influence of Jews is equally as observable as those of capitalists
Communists and fascists both rely on fear to gather political support.
Communist rhetoric is built on the fear of the bourgeois
Do you fear being oppressed?
You only fight things that frighten you
Fight or flight, it is the natural response to fear
Communists invoke fear of an unknown international order to rally supporters to violently overthrow their oppressors.
Nazis invoke fear of an unknown international order to rally supporters to violently overthrow their oppressors.
Like I said, equal and opposite ideologies
Fear of oppression is the number one recruiting tool for both movements
Nazis argue that their vision of the future is also better than the current system.
That doesn't legitimize either movement
Both movements utilize a utopian vision of the future in order to mobilize their followers for inevitable violent conflict
Communists believe that starvation, poverty and sickness can be eradicated in a communist society. Sounds quite utopian to me
It's getting pretty late by me, I gtg
It would seem that dialectic thought would imply that the state will continue to grow as has been historically shown, rather than the stateless utopia that Marx envisioned
If it comes at a cost to flexibility, then yes
The Great Replacement is a byproduct of consumerism and the profit-at-all-costs mindset, it is not an end goal in and of itself
Don't trust e-girls
Simonsen is her real name
Beefsteak nazis^^
Strasserism seems to be NatSoc but hates Jews due to their representation as major Capitalists rather than racial animus. Also it has more in common with marxism in terms of worker liberation
Imagine dying in a hierarchical military as a communist
My ancestors killed the commies and fascists
Japan was a militaristic aristocracy
If I was a communist I would be Kim Jong Un, he's the last communist with a state standing
That's communist heresy
Stalin was a literal National Socialist๐
That moment when you advocate for purging your political foes๐
Supporting Stalin's purge is just like supporting the Night Of Long Knives because it reduced German bureaucracy
It still doesn't justify political purges.
Then that justifies the HUAC in the 50s
Hell, that means the HUAC didn't go far enough
What if I told you women elected Hitler
Seize the means of PAWduction
The elevator constructors union is always looking for potential recruits. They get paid really well once you are done with your apprenticeship
Really any union job is a good choice, I've never heard a union worker complain about their wages๐
Don't trust e-girls
Literally parasites
Israel without a doubt. The only nation that would benefit strategically from the destruction of Iran is Israel. They aren't powerful enough to directly attack their own enemies so they will try to manipulate the US into attacking first
Dialectics have shown that the state will grow with the advent of new technology. It is unreasonable to assume that it will disappear ever
Communism is impossible in industrial societies. There are too many variables when it comes to determining equality
Maybe in agricultural societies but probably not
The state dying out is an entirely unfounded assumption based on history
Still, there is no historic precedence for the state magically dying out in areas where the means of production can be worker owned (ie small homesteads)
If we are being real, ww2 would have been a very different tale if Italy wasn't involved
Even with their incompetence, the Allied powers took 6 years to grind the Axis down
There is no logic to the state dying in the future. It will be a necessary instrument for organizing society. That is the purpose of the state
Even in areas where the means of production are worker owned (like I said, homesteads and farming communities), there is still a government
If it isn't stateless then it isn't communist
Even if the means of production are owned by the proletariat they still institute a state to organize society their way. The state is an inevitable construct of human organization
@Monolith I just described societies in which there are no class distinctions and they still go on to formulate a state. The state is an inevitability in human society, especially in more complex industrial ones
@Monolith How about Amish societies, what are the classes present in those?
@Monolith So what are the classes present in those societies? You haven't answered my question
So are you unable to describe the class structure in an Amish society?
@Monolith It is egalitarian, traditional, technologically primitive and modest in nature. The Amish are incredibly self reliant and very rarely utilize the technology of the outside world. They utilize more primitive technology in order to maintain their communal morality and abstain from modernism, which they see as morally degenerating. They are an agricultural people but also engage in older arts such as ironcraft and carpentry. Any given Amish person within an Amish community is nearly guaranteed to have the same standard of living as every other Amish. Everyone is clothed similarly and you are entitled to the fruits of the community's labor.
No, they don't have a lord
@Monolith Then agricultural communities are the only ones that can reasonably attain "communism". Even then there will still be a state
@Monolith Class is already abolished in agricultural communities. Wealth cannot be distributed evenly in an industrial society. There are too many material factors to determine what is truly equal. Anyways, in agricultural societies the means of production are already owned by those who work them. Why fight for the industrial world when communism is possible in the fields
Within their communities there are no class distinctions
It is a class that you are prescribing to them. They would see class as an alien concept
Not really, it is an observation of the Amish lifestyle
@Monolith You are trying to falsely classify some sort of class structure within Amish society which does not exist
Even if I concede that point, which I don't, their class still owns the means of production and they receive the entire fruit of their labor. They own the entire value of what they create
The same could be said about proletarian communism
