Do you know what a state is?
Again with teh question diversion
It's relevant. I want to know what you mean by 'state'.
city state
do you know the history of communsim
No, as in what the state is and how it functions.
like old ass history
Do you know what a city state is ?
I know that Communist movements required states, but they were busy trying to prepare the ground for socialism.
You need some for of organization that steers the collective in to the direction of the common goals. this is the state
the whole commuinist revolution in russia was nothing but a change of rulers
rulers with out care for the ppl
thgis is why many think states are bad
but they are not
per se or by definition
That sounds like an anarchist's idea of government rather than the Marxist idea of the state.
no because narchist dont have government
jees, you have issues keeping communism and anarchy appart man
Anarchism is anti-state, not anti-government, or at least not anti governance.
There is always going to be a collective interest, yes, but it is not set in stone, and it does not have to be imposed by political force and suppression of dissent.
This suppression of dissent is necessary when resources are too scarce and there isn't enough effort focussed upon beating back scarcity.
are you saying that governments dont have their power true force?
>power true force
so you are saying yes
O King of Nuance, what does that mean?
a gorvernment has its power true force
What does 'power true force' mean?
It is a simple yes or no
how hard can it be to awnser
jesus
having power true force
I don't know what to say unless I know what you mean.
with out theforce no power
pretty basic concept
Without *what* force?
A state needs to suppress dissent through a certain kind of political force in order to keep its political monopoly. This is the Marxist understanding of what a state is.
But a government has laws and pusnishments
they are pretty much the same thing
Anarchist dont want states nor governments
as they are basically the same thing
you dont even know what anacrist are
