The spectre of communism is haunting the Fediverse

  • We are communists precisely because we live under capitalism

  • Capitalism screws people’s mental health over and profit from that by having mercenaries at their disposal

  • Interesting that Russia and China abstained on this so it passed

  • This is from a server where they were having a discussion based on this report:

    But the leadership of the Palestinian people is Hamas, not the Palestinian Authority. They’re despised by Palestinians and are active Zionist collaborators. You can’t just say “well the PA are the Palestinian people’s government sooo”

    Hamas rejected the proposal

    Also the Arab states are US client states haha

    This is what I mean ‘multipolarity’ literally abandons class politics

    You can’t take the Arab US client states, the Palestinian Authority (all of these the bourgeoisie or the comprador bourgeoisie who that are client states of imperialism and literally imposed dictatorships on the masses) and say they represent the Palestinian people

    That’s like saying Chile’s Pinochet government represented the Chilean people

    Did any of these states ask Hamas? Palestinian Islamic Jihad? The PFLP? The actual resistance who lead the actual liberation movement? No.

    And yes, you could argue that they are seen as terror groups so it’s risky to have actual diplomatic relations with them, but that does not make the Palestinian Authority legitimate

  • So many people wants us dead because we wants a better world for everyone

  • This question comes from the “what if everyone just wants to do nothing” to justify the existence of a system in which if you are not able to work you die.

    Everyone is guaranteed a job, so if they don’t want to then they will just have less money to go around, or maybe they wouldn’t even need to if what they did is automated. However, regardless of whether they work or not, they are guaranteed food and housing. So they just get to do whatever they want. In a communist system someone livelihood is not tied to a job.

  • For those who have experience this: How do you deal with the feelings of anger and insecurity that come when someone who was being abusive towards you, is more clever in things that matter to you?

    Jump

  • I don’t know the context of why that was brought up around you, but that isn’t inherently a racist thing, just a fact.

    I just sat down for the first time with them as a group on the lunch table, and this white girl just casually said that out of the blue. I barely knew any of these people, and there was the Mexican guy and Indian guy sitting, on the table, yet this one white women, just decided to make the comment about black people. It was honestly disrespectful and disgusting, how she decided that it was okay to other someone like that the first time they decide to join them on the table. To me it felt that to her the reasons that caused to this, namely slavery, segregation, apartheid, red lining, sundown towns and racial financial segregation, are just cute side notes, and that her comment was just a cutesy thing to point out, by the fact that she just laughed about it. Back when it happened I didn't know how to respond to that, since who the hell starts a conversation with that? I was not used to that level of crassness since I wouldn't do that to anyone. For instance, I barely had any Chinese people were I grew up, but I am not about to other a Chinese person while laughing about it as my first convo with them. That was just pure malice. It was a very disgusting experience

    Finally for some professional advice, learn from those that may be smarter than you instead of being upset that they are.

    These are not the kind of people who help those that they deem outsiders. They give wrong advice on purpose. Or just act irritated if you ask them anything because they don't want to have to deal with you nor share the top with anybody. Besides, these are not the kind of people that I would want to learn from anyway. And even if I wanted to, they are pretty good at gatekeeping knowledge and opportunities.

  • When they tell you at work or at school to give it your all, do they mean to do something until you burn out or collapse of exhaustion? Because that seems to be the trope in all movies and shows.

  • Under communism meritocracy won’t exist because it would be “for each according to their ability and to each according to their need”. Everyone will just be a comrade trying their best
