  • The federal minimum wage is officially a poverty wage in 2025

  • You must mean this:

    because they don’t have the mental capacity to organize themselves.

    Condescending, like the other thread says, I can see that. How can there be contempt for something that people cannot change. That would be stupid.

  • That's why companies should willingly pay taxes, so that the state has resources to protect them.

  • The origin of the AfD is that a stable euro was promised but not delivered.

    Better and more honest politics would prevent the AfD.

    But the main problem is that the media provided the attention. The conflict is wanted by the upper class. To resolve the AfD within the system, alternative media has to be established.

  • It's an analysis, not a solution. Where is the contempt? You can tell me where I am wrong but I haven't said anything about how anybody should be treated.

  • I agree. My point is that the right-wing workers also don't want a fascist state. Thus there is common ground to prevent it together.

  • A repressive small state is a strawman. Done right a small state is not repressive.

  • Socialist revolution has already happened in many areas.

    Which all go back to the white army losing. Some say it was intentionally. Can that be recreated?

    Socialism locks in the current situation.

    The early industrial society doesn't exist anymore. Capitalists have adapted and turned workers into consumers. The old paths are gone.

    “Socialism has ro for improvement

    Consumers don't want to endure hardship or analysis. They can't stand seeing the problem, how can they be receptive to a solution?

    The material situation is the same but there is now a mental problem that hasn't been solved.

    To fish for downvotes, let me add that the bro lifestyle is an attempt by the right to solve the mental issues while ignoring the material ones.

  • Xi Jinping is the son of a high ranking politician. How is that not some form of class dynamics?

    Socialism does work

    USSR failed by having to import grain, while having black earth.

    But I am not opposing Socialism.

    My point is that right-wing people shouldn't be ignored, especially not to the point of seeing them as enemies.

    The upper class is using the split to reign. Insisting on a solution that has room for improvement locks in the current situation.

  • the bourgeoisie has been suppressed by Proletarian States, your hypothesis isn’t accurate

    But there are priviliged positions of power within those states. It's just another form to organize power. Those positions will not be available to everybody.

    The idea of trying to synthesize a new ideology of left combined with right historically is Social Democracy,

    That can't be all.

    As you write, it doesn't work so something else should be tried.

  • You could name the main hurdle without becoming a tutor.

    Of course there are reasons like no time from working two jobs or union busting behavior as seen from Starbucks or Amazon.

    But that leaves enough workers who could run the union.

    The main problem is convincing all minimum wage workers to join the union. Somebody has to come up with the necessary communication strategy. Whoever can do that most likely doesn't work a minimum wage job.

  • Leftist analysis, which is correct.

    Leftist analysis is not correct if the proletariat is stuck where it is.

    Not all desires are valid

    I would say, not all enactments of desires are acceptable, but invalidating desires by themselves sounds wrong to me. Who decides which desires are valid?

    blaming government as the issue when really it’s the fault of Capitalism

    Having a strong government to oppose Capitalism doesn't help either. Capitalism is just one form of maintaining power. The people with capital will become the people at the top of the government if Capitalism is abolished by government.

    Why not go full Hegel, treat left and right as thesis and antithesis and come up with something new?

  • MLK was killed because he was trying to overcome the suppression. It is the workers' abilities because leaders could have picked up where he was stopped. There are no leaders, which to me means, there are no abilities.

  • From the point of view of the right, the left government is maintaining overbearing zoning laws and medical regulations. These left politics retain the profits for the upper class in the current Capitalist system.

    It's the separation of the proletariat that uphelds Capitalism, not one side alone.

    A unified proletariat doesn't have to be left. Restricting analysis to dialectical materialism misses that people also care about other things. The left would already have convinced the entire proletariat if it's only materialism.

    It's the arrogance of already knowing how to resolve social issues that keeps the left stuck in the past. The left is all about respecting people and their emotions and desires, but when they are expressed in the form of right-wing support, they are called reactionary and ignored.

  • Capitalism and fascism is not what the proletarian right wants.

    The main differences are that the right accepts social, class differences while the left wants socialized support and unity. On the other hand the left wants individual personal differences while the right wants uniform values.

    It's not about gaining things from the right but overcoming differences. There doesn't have to be left and right. Then both sides can change society together and make a better world instead of fighting each other for the benefit of the upper class.
