definitely

2018-11-13 23:47:25 UTC  

Communism is an ad hoc hypothesis

2018-11-13 23:47:26 UTC  

You filthy amerikans

2018-11-13 23:47:55 UTC  

I'm not an American <:ho:315613510589480964>

2018-11-13 23:48:41 UTC  

Do we even know what we want tho

2018-11-13 23:48:44 UTC  

from the state

2018-11-13 23:49:24 UTC  

Statism

2018-11-13 23:49:25 UTC  

The right has basically 1 or 2 forms of organizing the state they're going for, the Left has like 30

2018-11-13 23:50:08 UTC  

Aren’t you supposed to be anarchists?

2018-11-13 23:50:27 UTC  

Advocating for a stateless, classless, moneyless society?

2018-11-13 23:50:55 UTC  

when society reaches a certain level of development

2018-11-13 23:50:57 UTC  

The proletariat are to organise themselves into a state in order to gain control of the means of production. They are represented in Marxism-Leninism specifically, by a vanguard party and the subsequent people's republic representatives

2018-11-13 23:51:43 UTC  

but nowadays industries don't play a big role, most people are working in service/finantial jobs I think

2018-11-13 23:51:55 UTC  

they do

2018-11-13 23:52:14 UTC  

and the means of production aren't that easy to take hold of as stopping the production line

2018-11-13 23:53:21 UTC  

Did @Mr. X die of ligma?

2018-11-13 23:53:25 UTC  

maybe

2018-11-13 23:53:41 UTC  

he will surely resurrect

2018-11-13 23:54:49 UTC  

@catholic without *workers*, who will do the *work*?

2018-11-13 23:56:06 UTC  

It really isn't that complicated. The welfare of Capitalists is dependent upon the efforts of the worker, although they gain a disproportionately greater product from the collective effort of the workers

2018-11-13 23:56:38 UTC  

but what would be the achievable version of this, as the way stopping immigration and deporting illegals is to an ethnostate

2018-11-13 23:57:07 UTC  

that's true for big business, not so much small

2018-11-13 23:58:49 UTC  

Are you talking about illegal workers?

2018-11-13 23:59:22 UTC  

No, I'm talking about short term goals that would get to these ideals

2018-11-13 23:59:45 UTC  

If you want to build an ethnostate, start by closing borders

2018-11-13 23:59:56 UTC  

If you want to build a socialist state, start by

2018-11-14 00:00:23 UTC  

Nazbol gang

2018-11-14 00:00:26 UTC  

minimum wage?

2018-11-14 00:00:28 UTC  

lol

2018-11-14 00:00:38 UTC  

*living wage

2018-11-14 00:01:05 UTC  

minimum wage is not enough to live off of for many people

2018-11-14 00:01:18 UTC  

especially in popular towns and cities

2018-11-14 00:02:25 UTC  

@catholic "The means of production belong to the whole of society. Every member of society, performing a certain part of the socially necessary work, receives a certificate from society to the effect that he has done a certain amount of work. And with this certificate he receives from the public store of consumer goods a corresponding quantity of products. After a deduction is made of the amount of labor which goes to the public fund, every worker, therefore, receives from society as much as he has given to it."
(Lenin, V. I. (1917), The State and the Revolution (p. 54), Marxists.org)

2018-11-14 00:02:58 UTC  

yes

2018-11-14 00:03:37 UTC  

Therefore, the harder you work, the more you are rewarded.
Under capitalism, the harder you work, the more your boss is rewarded

2018-11-14 00:06:56 UTC  

How does that work for scientists or entrepeneurs? I mean there's a lot of ways capitalism builds and invents goods you can't quantify. Starting a business basically. I know wage slavery prevents 99% from actually building some capital themselves, wouldn't it be good to have a system that takes the burden off that and tries to use people's ambition to make society better

2018-11-14 00:07:59 UTC  

The more they research and discover/the more they contribute to society, the more they are rewarded

2018-11-14 00:08:25 UTC  

There is no incentive to work harder under capitalism

2018-11-14 00:08:53 UTC  

Also, the argument of incentive under capitalism is extremely ironic
