Only after the revolution phase and the system has been enforced, before that a communist revolution would function like a state. It might be a chaotic state, but it’s still would be a state at this stage.
(I would also like to remind everyone that Liberalism started with revolutions as well. The French Terror was a thing...)
No, actually it'd just be accusing them of not holding a value that exists within the greater universe of liberal values
The value in question is not itself inherently liberal
Nothing is "inherently liberal", we have to define things first, thus they're subjective
We define humans as the ingroup, it's the basis for liberal values
It's not inherently Liberal, the reasoning you deployed to get to justify the value is Liberal.
function like a state how
So you are ASSUMING your own ideological framework
So it's a non-argument to anyone who doesn't share it
Every ideology was defined by people, thus they're all subjective
They're ideologies, not objective facts
So obviously it's assumed to be xyz, that's the point
I think there is some major disconnect here
If you want to tell a communist, that doing x is wrong, and you use Liberal arguments to do so, u are OBVIOUSLY not going to succeed unless you find some commonality with him is my point.
The reasoning was:
'killing can be for a valid reason or not'
Off of which was based,
'I find that killing someone due to a belief is not a valid reason'
It's a pointless exercise
Pointless or not, the ideology has been defined, so we can label them properly
You might as well just use violence against them immediately, as this is never gonna work
Whether they agree or not doesn't matter
Monopoly of violence sense. One organization would have a monopoly on punishment for criminals and how they’re defined and military affairs in their territory. Even if communist groups organized into a loose confederation it would still be considered a state or multiple states at this point.
I find it important to use labels correctly, or else just never use labels at all
well i mean this is partially just comes down to how one views the nature of power
If you don;t believe in some sort of base line set of things we can all agree about, then all you are doing is engaging in Foucautlian discourse and there is no right and wrong, only winners and losers anyway...
Or rather that jsut are
wat
regardless of weather everyone believes in them
You're rambling, I do accept the ideologies as they are defined
I'm calling you an unselfware SJW basically
i mean i think that if the state is just to be defined as a monopoly on violence within a given territory it's more or less "natural" within the context of post agricultural-revolution societies
No you're simply wrong about me, stop assuming things
Do you believe in objective reality?
Yeah obviously
Do you believe that there could be an objective morality derived from said reality?
No
Then I'm almost certainly correct
About what
you
What
don't worrt
Ok, nothing
