Again, you admit that you're dealing with perfections and absolutes - things which can never exist. But Communism does not give a shit about those.
>and in that in it self communism your communism is oppresive and destructive
Says the nazi pretending to be communist
That's why Marx talks about 'the real movement to abolish the present state of things' rather than 'a state of affairs to be established'.
well buttzo had to say some shit
We don't care about your frozen ideas. They're useless to us. They're either mundane truisms or impossible things which we can't even conceive of in concrete terms.
like which frozen ideas
you stay so vague in your dodges
Buttzo
'So vague', when I mentioned it over and over again.
"What makes it different from Fascism or even what you call 'fascism' is that Communists don't say 'freedom is impossible, why bother'. Instead, we say that the impossibility of your frozen idea of 'freedom' does not mean that concrete freedoms are impossible."
That's a new one
I commend you on your creativity
So much for being vague.
@Garbage > goes on not naming these "ideas"
Read the screenshots.
how is it frozen idea, when you want freedom of determination
It's because you imagine it as something that must be beyond material conditions.
And then you say 'well, we submit to those material conditions'.
communism is that you know
you have a need of the ppl and you need to work to create matirals for the ppl
this is the whole submission
And not to change the material conditions themselves?
'Needs of the people' change, and so do the demands and goals of the people.
Yeah, needs like food and clothing
transportation infrastructure
basic things
that you like need
But we did not need them to survive before or pursue various goals before, now, did we?
To defend their lives, people did not have to rely on a military and maintain it, did they, when states were not in existence...?
And we will not always need things like trains in future.
What use is a train in space, for example?
Our world changes, but not as we consciously want it to. We live in a world of indirect economic and political relations where we aren't conscious of the commonalities between us and we conceive of ourselves as being forever locked into exclusive modes of life by some outside force which we either haven't managed to control yet or simply don't want to (this attitude is *defeatist*).
This imagined outside force is an idol - an embodiment of a big Other into a certain form. It's a reflection of our social world, given a power which we mistakenly take as a force which is supposed to be forever outside of our consciousness and our reach.
'Nature', God, the pixies.
There is something outside of our consciousness of it (this is a development of *materialism*), but it is not something that cannot be known by us. It relates to our own practice and thoughts.
When anyone tries to understand themselves, they must take into account their own history, including them understanding themselves, and the understanding of them understanding themselves and so on. It's an explosive infinite feedback.
So one can never truly capture oneself in thought at a given moment, but they can always be *a step behind* in a sense.
