Translation:
My personal opinion, for those who are interested, is that these two instances (Hexbear and Lemmygrad) are filled with what we call here nazbols, tankies, or even left-wing fascists.
They are primarily authoritarians who like to call themselves leftist, but use the same tools, have the same political vision, the same organization, and politically and historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges.
I found it tolerable to “do nothing” as long as they stayed in their corners, but I had somewhat forgotten that an authoritarian remains an authoritarian and that the only place they deserve is down a well, not forgetting to strike the hands that try to escape with a big stick.
This is an important moment in history. Like… what the entire fuck?
historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges.
excuse me, what?
Don’t tell him about WW2
history ended with the molotov-ribbentrop pact apparently
It also began with the MR pact. The MR pact is the singularity momen in which all human experience unfolded. Nothing came before and nothing came after.
that same admin called us monkies who shit in their hands and throw it btw
What the fuck? Incredibly disgusting racism.
Oh… that does explain some things.
@[email protected] didn’t tell a lie. Fuck em
Honestly I’ve been downright gentle with these frog motherfuckers. Not like Camus didn’t perform the single greatest act of self-snitching in history; conflating my “I want every frog who ever fixed their face to jawn on the motherland swinging by their ankles” with “you advocate for the destruction of millions of French” like, my man, my cracker, my little colonoid polyp, are you implying that millions of cracker-assed frogs say the kinds of shit about my people that you do?
Fuck these honkey cousinfuckers, I swear to god. Habsburgism must’ve chewed their brains generations ago; they don’t understand the deleterious effects of colonialism, they don’t understand why those they colonize despise them, they don’t even understand why this circlejerk session of theirs is wrong. I genuinely think there’s some kind of cracker-borne developmental issue affecting an entire nation there at this point.
They also said, talking about Hexbear, that keeping it a safe space for transgender people is disgusting, fetishizing, and authoritarian.
They’re a crazy rightoid that for some reasons refuses to recognise it. They’ll probably say it wasn’t transphobia, but just a sick reference to the Avengers that we’re too dumb to understand, or some crap like that.
Edit: Oh and they also said that there is no doubt that the Uyhgur genocide is real, because China is culturally genocidal. You can’t make this shit up.
Edit: Oh and they also said that there is no doubt that the Uyhgur genocide is real, because China is culturally genocidal. You can’t make this shit up.
You’re joking, you’re joking; I can’t believe my eyes.
You’re kidding me, you’ve gotta be; no way the guy who belongs to a vicious culture of 500 years of colonialism, slavery, resource extraction, and fascist collaboration is fixing his face to call China culturally genocidal. The guy from the country that shoots Afrikan kids the minute they try to get in the way of frog resource extraction? Top-500 rank projection, istg.
To defend their point about China they said that the “colonization” of Xinjiang was attested under imperial dynasties. They hate flags and nations until it suits them. But like if there was ONE nation that absolutely did not follow with their past… it was China.
I knew about the sinophobia (because they made that claim to me lol) but transphobia too? Unsurprising, just disgusting.
Translation:
“It came from the statement made in the thread that hexbear was ‘aggressively pro-trans,’ which seemed quite disgusting and fetishizing to me. This aligns with the rest of the authoritarian theme of the instance, you might say, having the perspective that one must make a superhuman effort to allow a minority to use a space.”
Stop making efforts to create a safe space, it’s authoritarian!!
Wow that is just an incredible, incredible take.
So… A good chunk of Hexbear’s moderation staff are trans. And the trans community aggressively hunts down and purges transphobes on the site with the full support of not-trans members…
And that is somehow fetishization.
This person has a brain palace of great beauty and wonder. I wish to study it.
Seriously though jfc what the hell even is this?
This person has a brain palace
POV: You’re Anansi
This person has a brain palace of great beauty and wonder. I wish to study it.
Somebody fetch the calipers and the doming hammer, I think I’m about to bring back phrenology but as applied to hwhites
So he’s basically saying here that in his ideal commune if you’re trans or from another marginalized group you can die on his watch and he won’t care, there won’t be any hate crime laws – even liberal society is better on this than him.
Holy shit, that’s monstrous. Hexbear is extremely anti-chaser and recommends theory like The Gender Accelerationist’s Manifesto, and Anansi’s response is that protecting trans individuals is “disgusting, fetishizing, and authoritarian?” Unsurprising from this
Honestly “anansi” is probably a chaser himself. He’s already a racist, fascist colonizer; you can’t convince me he’s not a walking hat trick of foreign Kyle-assed fuckery.
signs point to “yes”Would be the least surprising news about them.
Les tankies et le wokisme, such a beautiful language
in quebequois these would be “charcies” and “reveillisme”
anti authority until it comes to the authority to throw people down wells
We just don’t pretend that we don’t believe in the use of force.
To the average lib, “anti-authoritarianism” means they follow the state department line on who is good and bad.
They love force when it is employed against the right people, even if they claim to “disagree” with the methods.
“Authoritarian” is a fascinating word because it really does just mean “other group that I think are bad”. That’s it. It has no other meaning. There’s no definition that distinguishes “authoritarian” organizations from “Non-authoritarian” organization except the speakers relationship to a group they disagree with (or have been thrown out of for being a wrecker).
even if they claim to “disagree” with the methods.
Nah, they don’t even pretend. Just watch them talk about “terrorists”. Liberals unsurprisingly have a full on statist view of violence. Their violence to protect property is legitimate and all other violence is illegitimate.
“terrorism” is a great term to explain how they think, too. The meaning of “Terrorism” in actual use is very literally “organized violence I disagree with”. The type, purpose, goals, intent, and targets of the violence are utterly irrelevant. it doesn’t matter if it’s harsh language or thermonuclear bombs. All that’s needed for something to be labelled terrorism is that the speaker believes the perpetrators are an organized group and that they disagrree with teh violnce. Fascinating stuff.
French continues to be a waste of time.
His german accent makes it even better.
Brilliant clip.
Look at the comments lol:
@*** 3 years ago
I really hope all you are joking, otherwise it would be pretty sad. I know french as a language can be hard at times, but we are obviously just like other west Europeans.@*** 3 years ago
anderson You did not understand my comment. I could not care less if you happen to despise the language, I was worried about people rejecting french people.Who knew the french were so fragile?
Be careful about calling them fragile, they might report us to their Gestapo again.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
im dying, that face is worth a million words
“Leftists” who never read theory and live in the Global North inevitably side with Empire and Colonialism, and see people pushing for national liberation and revolution as dangerous to them personally. Anansi is the premier example of this, to the point of death threats against Communists.
Let’s analyze this.
My personal opinion, for those who are interested, is that these two instances (Hexbear and Lemmygrad) are filled with what we call here nazbols, tankies, or even left-wing fascists.
Extremely serious claims (among the ridiculous like the idea that there could be a "left-wing fascism), let’s see how they justify it.
They are primarily authoritarians who like to call themselves leftist, but use the same tools, have the same political vision, the same organization, and politically and historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges.
Primarily “authoritarians?” Who forms their political ideology around supporting use of authority, and not based on analysis of material conditions and who modern structures serve? This claim is left unsupported as though it is natural and obvious, as though people decide to be “authoritarian” by siding against Imperialism and colonialism, seeking power from siding with the people with less power. It’s nonsense.
Secondly, there is a claim of using the “same tools,” as fascists, which is false. Communists are revolutionary, fascists work with the establishment. Communists support democracy via Democratic Centralism, fascists crush democracy. Communists are internationalists, fascists are nationalists. Communists support violence against oppressors as a tool of liberation, fascists support violence against the oppressed as a tool of submission. It’s further nonsense.
Finally, the idea that it is the Communists siding with fascists, and not the liberals and Social Democrats siding with the facsists against the Communists, is entirely absurd and historically revisionist. From the SPD siding against the KPD and with the NSDAP, to any major historical current, Communists have sided against the fascists.
Anansi, read Blackshirts and Reds. You fundamentally have no idea what Communism and Fascism are, who the Communists and Fascists serve, and their adversarial relationship. This clouds your entire worldview.
I found it tolerable to “do nothing” as long as they stayed in their corners, but I had somewhat forgotten that an authoritarian remains an authoritarian and that the only place they deserve is down a well, not forgetting to strike the hands that try to escape with a big stick.
Ending it with a call to violence against Communists, a time-honored tradition amongst fascists. In context, Anansi was projecting their own tendencies towards authoritarianism and fascism on the antifascist Communists. Shocker!
Extremely
sir this is a
tiny niche communist shitposting forumWendy’sMoment
Absolutely. Deeply unserious people.
These gentlemen think that because they have changed the name of things, that they have changed things
logic
Anansi is the premier example of this, to the point of death threats against Communists.
He is a disgrace to the name ‘Anansi’ frankly. I hope that’s a white frenchman; because if there’s even a lick of melanin on them? Here’s what I see:
I like how you called them Temu Pinochet, maybe that should be their official nickname so we won’t be sullying the name Anansi any further by associating it with them.
I’m down with it
Standard frog, or comprador? A mystery for the ages. Would be fitting for the French to steal from the Akan people, as the British did.
My bet always sides on the latter there; nazi collaboration is in their blood.
I’m an American
but every time I speak about decolonization people look at me like I just ate their baby in front of them. would rather side against victims of settler-colonialism and perpetuate the bloodthirsty cycle of parasitic violence than dare take a peak beyond the curtain to see where their spoils came from. The French are no different with this regard.Even if they do see it, they then try to rationalize it and justify it. Just racism the whole way down.
Thought I was the only one that felt some type of way
Thought I was the only one that felt some type of way
This amount of projection is astounding, I’m genuinely impressed.
Explain. Defend yourself, you have the ability to, right here, explain how what I said was projection. If you can’t, what’s the point of acting smug here? Humiliation?
Boulé humiliation ritual
Finally, the idea that it is the Communists siding with fascists, and not the liberals and Social Democrats siding with the facsists against the Communists, is entirely absurd and historically revisionist. From the SPD siding against the KPD and with the NSDAP, to any major historical current, Communists have sided against the fascists.
I think that you’re ignoring once again on purpose that my critic is not against communists, but against people like you, tankies, that are as communist as the nazis were socialist.
You tankies allied with the Nazis when you had an interest in doing so, saying the contrary is the actual revisionism. Ever heard of Ribbentrop-Molotov ?
You also indirectly sided with Franco in Spain by only sending resources to sabotage revolutionary efforts by the anarchist because it was a threat to the communist illusion that you made. That’s also why you purged actual communists, anarchists and other -ist whenever you could. Saying the contrary is also revisionism.
Anansi, read Blackshirts and Reds. You fundamentally have no idea what Communism and Fascism are, who the Communists and Fascists serve, and their adversarial relationship. This clouds your entire worldview.
No, I do, and I think you realize that’s the problem.
You just are not communists, you’re cosplaying.
I found it tolerable to “do nothing” as long as they stayed in their corners, but I had somewhat forgotten that an authoritarian remains an authoritarian and that the only place they deserve is down a well, not forgetting to strike the hands that try to escape with a big stick.Ending it with a call to violence against Communists, a time-honored tradition amongst fascists.

You’ll find the explanation on this in the other comments, which you will chose to ignore or not believe because once again that shows your illiteracy and/or double standards.
Vichy pig-dog
people like you, tankies, that are as communist as the nazis were socialist.
Lul.
Fuck off. Don’t make me drag out the chart showing that literally every other nation in Europe had some kind of agreement with the Nazis before the USSR finally concluded a non-aggression pact. Or the chart showing how the USSR spent most of the 30s trying to arrange any pact against the fascists with anyone only to be systematically shut out by a Europe that believed the fascists would attack the Soviets first and then the rest of Europe could swoop in and feast on the carcass.
History happened. We remember even if no one else will. Take this fantasy fiction shit somewhere else, preferably to hell.
Also, “authoritarianism” is a term with literally no semantic content beyond “Those guys are meanies”. It’s only meaning is to define another party as “bad people” in contrast to one’s own party who are “good people”. There are no definable or stable attributes that distinguish “authoritarians” from any “not-authoritarian” group except the relation of one’s own group to another opposing group. And that opposing “authoritarian” group is often as not a simulacra or confabulation that exists no where but within the cultural views of the “Good guys”.
You tankies allied with the Nazis when you had an interest in doing so, saying the contrary is the actual revisionism. Ever heard of Ribbentrop-Molotov ?
ayoo you can’t be serious saying this 😂, you can try isolating that as much as you want but you should know how WW2 unfolded at this point. This is not different than israelis justifying everything because of Oct7, as if nothing else has happened since or before, get that metaphysical worldview outta here you clown.
Fuck off with your utopian bullshit. Socialism will only come about by violence. If you doubt this you are a dullard who can’t see the world around him. Utopian socialists have spent 150+ years promising that everything will get better naturally over time and look at the state of things.
Marx and Engels came up with the term “Communist” specifically to differentiate their idea of socialism from moron democratic socialists and utopian fools like you.
Go read Socialism: Utopian and Scientific.
Eat a bag of bull dicks, cracker. I don’t believe you’ve read a lick of Parenti in your life; and it’s rich you talk about us ‘allying with Nazis’, didn’t you crackers let them quarter in Paris? Didn’t you crackers give up hella land to them? Don’t you crackers still run cover for them to this day? Boy, if you don’t.
the 🥖 crackers utterly incompetent throughout history and still trying to lecture other people 🥴
The audacity of the caucasity
You tankies allied with the Nazis when you had an interest in doing so, saying the contrary is the actual revisionism.
… wait for it …
Ever heard of Ribbentrop-Molotov ?
Come on liberal, say the line!
Ever heard of molotov-ribbentrop?
i love it because libs think its some sort of “gotcha”.
I think that you’re ignoring once again on purpose that my critic is not against communists, but against people like you, tankies, that are as communist as the nazis were socialist.
Yes, I’m ignoring it because you haven’t demonstrated that there’s a difference.
You tankies allied with the Nazis when you had an interest in doing so, saying the contrary is the actual revisionism. Ever heard of Ribbentrop-Molotov ?
Yep, fully aware that the Soviets bided their time while trying to get the Western Powers to form an alliance against the rising Nazi threat.
You also indirectly sided with Franco in Spain by only sending resources to sabotage revolutionary efforts by the anarchist because it was a threat to the communist illusion that you made. That’s also why you purged actual communists, anarchists and other -ist whenever you could. Saying the contrary is also revisionism.
The Soviets supplied the Anarchists, and you say that helped Franco? Lmao. You’re deeply unserious.
No, I do, and I think you realize that’s the problem. You just are not communists, you’re cosplaying.
Read the book, Anansi. You haven’t made any points on us not being Communists and refuse to read literature disproving you.
You’ll find the explanation on this in the other comments, which you will chose to ignore or not believe because once again that shows your illiteracy and/or double standards.
I’ve read your justification, it’s more like obfuscation.
Yep, fully aware that the Soviets bided their time while trying to get the Western Powers to form an alliance against the rising Nazi threat.
This part is so consistently annoying. “dae M-R pact?” Sure, buddy. *BUT WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE THAT? WHAT HAPPENED IN THE DECADE BEFORE THAT? WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES LEAD TO A SITUATION WHERE THE M-R PACT MADE SENSE AND WAS NECESSARY?
Events are static and devoid of context, duh
Switching to an alt here since the thread was blocked in the other instance.
explain how what I said was projection
Sure, I’ll just repeat myself here.
“Leftists” who never read theory and live in the Global North inevitably side with Empire and Colonialism
I think this is just projection because nothing in my history of posts defends empires and colonialism, and my whole point is that you actually do when you think it’s the good guyses doing it.
My whole point on the Xinjiang topic was that you all chose to ignore chinese history that goes pretty much as far as we have written history of it, explaining the whole way of dealing with minorities by forced assimilation, coming from the clanic and dynastic organization of Chinese provinces for millenias.
You chose to ignore the continuation of such practices when it caused, amongst other issues, a big point of dissension in the sino-soviet wars.
You chose to ignore the continuation of such practices in thi modern context still in Xinjiang, now also in Hong-Kong.
You chose to ignore the whole area of study about sinicization, which is pretty much that subject, and you also chose to ignore how similar the situation is between the PRC and provinces that want to be independant, to what Israel is doing with Palestine, which stems from the same imperialistic logic.
You chose to ignore the material reasons leading to China wanting to keep control over the Xinjiang province, for both natural resources, arable land, and the location for the BRI.
You chose to ignore that the acceleration in the settlement and ethnic erasure of the Xinjiang province is strangely close to the acceleration of the BRI project.
And when I, or other people, call you out about your performative leftism, you conclude that this is coming from people that, for some reason, are aligned with the US point of view, without one second thinking that people can agree with the goal of a country/people while still being critical of it.
You are the one agreeing with colonization of provinces, settlements aimed at erasing whole cultures, accepting imperialist tactics when it comes from a country you like. You’re projecting.
and see people pushing for national liberation and revolution as dangerous to them personally
No, I’m also pushing for the Xinjiang to reach the independence they’re fighting for for almost a century now, the same way I push for Palestine to be free of the colonial power trying to erase them from the map and history.
Being a tankie and openly excusing political organization that purged independence movements, helped fascists fight against independence movements lead by anarchists that you feel were threatening to you is materialistically fighting against revolution and liberation efforts.
MLs and their children are far more responsible for the erasure of the revolutionary left from the international politic spectrum than any libshit or fascists.
There is far less need for propaganda to sully the left when you call yourself communists, purge anything more left or revolutionary than you, install some fat cats into power and slowly liberalize your economy while “forgetting” to actually give back power to the people.
Y’all are unable to see the obvious fact that there is no need for CIA plants when you do their job for free.
Meanwhile, while you’re being armchair leftists just spreading your ignorance online, people like me, actual leftists, are outside forming people in popular education associations, working in unions and syndicates to actually change the political discourse.
Primarily “authoritarians?” Who forms their political ideology around supporting use of authority, and not based on analysis of material conditions and who modern structures serve?
Yes.
This claim is left unsupported as though it is natural and obvious, as though people decide to be “authoritarian” by siding against Imperialism and colonialism, seeking power from siding with the people with less power. It’s nonsense.
You side against western imperialism and colonialism, while siding for anything else that goes against it, because you’re just contrarians with no political backbones.
Also power is relative. By your logic you’d have sided with the nazis because they were fighting against most western countries while ignoring the fact that they were also kind of putting jews in ovens. Your stance is nonsense.
Secondly, there is a claim of using the “same tools,” as fascists, which is false. Communists are revolutionary, fascists work with the establishment.
Communists yes, what you call communism no.
You are only revolutionary until you seize power, then it’s business as usual until you built enough capital for you and your friends that you can liberalize the economy until your “communist” state gets destroyed, have an excuse to leave the country to capitalists while you live your life in Cancùn.
Communists support democracy via Democratic Centralism, fascists crush democracy.
Democratic Centralism in practice in your MLs countries irremediably end up as a farce because actual democracy would challenge power structures, so you only allow partial democracy after you literally purged anybody that would not agree with what you want to be the result of the vote.
Communists are internationalists, fascists are nationalists.
Ever heard of Stalin take on communism ? Or the CCP one ?
Your brand of communism is internationalist as long as it means colonizing and assimilating other countries lmao
Communists support violence against oppressors as a tool of liberation, fascists support violence against the oppressed as a tool of submission.
Sure, the nazis didn’t justify their actions by saying they were fighting against a global elite that oppressed the poor german people.
Also it’s true that your tankies regime never had any way of putting any dissenting people into submission using the state apparatus.
I can continue dunking on your ignorant asses all day if you want, but you should spend your time actually reading theory, but also academic literature so you can do your autocritic brother, because you’re pretty cringe.
You “Bad word people!” --> you Bad word people , because you defend Geopolitcial Entity that did not declear war on Hitler instantly under special “HITLER” causus belli !!!
You are Not good people like i am !
I am good person because i strongly condem every single thing that my offical geopolitical enemy did!!!
Just name something that communist did , i will condem it! . thats why you are not communist , i am !
you should all die !
And if i say that , you really have to die , because i am good ! And even i want you to die , so you must be really bad.
Also not Communist.
This is a fascinating document that merits detailed research and discussion.
My whole point on the Xinjiang topic was that you all chose to ignore chinese history that goes pretty much as far as we have written history of it, explaining the whole way of dealing with minorities by forced assimilation, coming from the clanic and dynastic organization of Chinese provinces for millenias.
Ahh, yes, the devious Oriental and their ancient murderous ways. Come the fuck on, this is Klan shit. Contemporary Chinese people are genocidal because the fucking Yuan dynasty was genocidal? Because Cao Cao was a shithead? Because Kublai Khan was a jerk?
I’m also pushing for the Xinjiang to reach the independence they’re fighting for for almost a century now
This is like the State Department’s in-house version of the Chronicles of Narnia.
Meanwhile, while you’re being armchair leftists just spreading your ignorance online, people like me, actual leftists, are outside forming people in popular education associations, working in unions and syndicates to actually change the political discourse.
We need to do research on how “I, the only true Lefists, actually goes outside while you, redfash-libero-tankie-jerklords, do not have any subjective understanding of the color green” and how people just develop this absolutely iron-clad believe that they or their in-group are the only people who do any kind of activism. This has to get down to some primal construction of in-group / out-group dynamics
By your logic you’d have sided with the nazis because they were fighting against most western countries while ignoring the fact that they were also kind of putting jews in ovens. Your stance is nonsense.
You guys are red-fash tankies just like the Soviets who bore the overwhelming brunt of fighting against the Hitlerites, liberated the death camps, and along with the Dominican Republic were the only country in the world that didn’t establish quotas on Jewish refugees and accepted everyone who managed to reach the borders!
Sure, the nazis didn’t justify their actions by saying they were fighting against a global elite that oppressed the poor german people.
Anti-Capitalism is exactly the same as Anti-semitism. I am a real leftist and I am very well read and have a good concept of theory
I can continue dunking on your ignorant asses all day if you want
Honestly, this is possibly the most fascinating thing every posted on Hexbear. This isn’t just brainworms, this is like brain Shai-Hulud. This is the grandfather brainworms. Just reading this I’ve got a contact high of the awareness-spectrum narcotic the spice melange. I’m pretty sure I could drive to Chicago without GPS maps and without getting stuck in construction right now.

Unfortunately for us, they did not, in fact, “continue dunking on our ignorant asses all day”. They actually fled with their tail between their legs as soon as Cowbee replied to them, never to be seen again.

Not one cracker that’s ever fixed their faces to say “Neither Washington nor Beijing” has everrrrrrrrrrrrrrr taken the former to task. Wonder why that is; hmmm, could it be that you crackers eagerly bear water and materiel for the FIVE-EYES State Department?
Nah, must just be that the crackers that spent the last 500 years of recorded human history lying to all and sundry who weren’t either anglo-saxons or normans, that spent that same 500 years colonizing everything that wasn’t white of skin and full of sin, that spent that same 500 years breaking every single treaty they made that again, wasn’t with someone white of skin-- must just be nobody believes them.
For some strange reason.
https://readsettlers.org, cracker.
lmao nerd
For starters, this is largely gish-gallop. You never back up any of your claims, and you strawman claims I have never made. These two logical fallicies make up the structure of your comment, gish-gallop a bunch of claims I never made and then “dunk” on them. I’ll go section by section.
I think this is just projection because nothing in my history of posts defends empires and colonialism, and my whole point is that you actually do when you think it’s the good guyses doing it … You are the one agreeing with colonization of provinces, settlements aimed at erasing whole cultures, accepting imperialist tactics when it comes from a country you like. You’re projecting.
This is the “China Bad” section. You begin by making racist claims that “Chinese assimilation” is so core to Chinese identity that it is an inevitability. You also at one point side with the British Empire with respect to Hong Kong, and again provided no evidence that the majority wish to break away from the PRC in any case.
Anansi, I need you to carefully consider any subject that leads you to side with the worst Empire in the world in a way that you materially benefit from. Be hyper-skeptical, don’t just side with the West and accept its narrative whole cloth, because you have every material reason to.
No, I’m also pushing for the Xinjiang to reach the independence they’re fighting for for almost a century now, the same way I push for Palestine to be free of the colonial power trying to erase them from the map and history … Meanwhile, while you’re being armchair leftists just spreading your ignorance online, people like me, actual leftists, are outside forming people in popular education associations, working in unions and syndicates to actually change the political discourse.
This section is categorized by the running stream “Marxism bad.” Anansi, you make it extremely clear that you have never read Marxist theory beyond perhaps the Manifesto, because you make numerous foundational errors in this section.
-
Equating Xinjiang to Palestine when they are entirely different situations. Here’s an idea: compare approval rates for the CPC and/or the PRC in Xinjiang and approval rates for Israel in Palestine.
-
The claim that Communists have sided with fascists against Anarchists is unsubstantiated, when we know for a fact the USSR supplied the Spanish Anarchists materially.
-
The idea that the State “withering away” means that at some point the government needs to dissolve itself and “give itself back to the people,” when Marx’s idea of Communism is a fully centrally planned publicly owned economy and that the Marxist idea of a State is different from the Anarchist idea of a State
-
The claim that Anarchists are “more” left than Marxists, which is nonsense ideology measuring and has no materialist basis, both Marxism and Anarchism are left regardless
-
The idea that we do not organize is false, many of us are members of Communist or Anarchist orgs and do good work on the ground
All utterly nonsense and unbacked.
Yes
You fully believe that Marxists support Marxism because they are power-level scalers? Why then do they side with national liberation movements like in Palestine, Hawaii, the Sahel States, the Aztlan people, and more? This claim is additionally unsupported, an “I believe it so it’s true” claim.
You side against western imperialism and colonialism, while siding for anything else that goes against it, because you’re just contrarians with no political backbones … Also power is relative. By your logic you’d have sided with the nazis because they were fighting against most western countries while ignoring the fact that they were also kind of putting jews in ovens. Your stance is nonsense.
See, that’s not my stance. This is you, yet again, demonstrably failing to analyze Marxist positions. If you just pretend Marxists purely side against the West, you can make the false claim that Marxists would… support the west? It’s farcical. Here’s a hint: the Communists sided against the fascists committing the Holocaust and liberated Aushwitz, doing far more of the fighting than any Western nation that would have had the Nazis and Communists kill each other off.
Communists yes, what you call communism no. You are only revolutionary until you seize power, then it’s business as usual until you built enough capital for you and your friends that you can liberalize the economy until your “communist” state gets destroyed, have an excuse to leave the country to capitalists while you live your life in Cancùn.
Remarkable, no actual analysis of Marxist history. The Soviets could have liberalized at any time, but did so later in their existence, why? The PRC is a mostly publicly owned economy with strong central planning despite reintroducing foreign Capital, why? Cuba is still Socialist despite brutal sanctions because of it, why? You have no analysis. Here’s an excerpt from Engels with respect to Markets, from Principles of Communism:
Question 17 : Will it be possible to abolish private property at one stroke?
Answer : No, no more than the existing productive forces can at one stroke be multiplied to the extent necessary for the creation of a communal society. Hence, the proletarian revolution, which in all probability is approaching, will be able gradually to transform existing society and abolish private property only when the necessary means of production have been created in sufficient quantity.
Marxists don’t advocate for Socialism because of any moral reason, but because Capitalism itself forms large monopolist syndicates ripe for central planning and public ownership. You cannot simply “will” these structures into existence, that’s why Communists can’t abolish Private Property outright. A good article on this is Why Public Property?
Democratic Centralism in practice in your MLs countries irremediably end up as a farce because actual democracy would challenge power structures, so you only allow partial democracy after you literally purged anybody that would not agree with what you want to be the result of the vote.
Democratic Centralism is not a “farce.” It is not farcical to state that the group is bound to the results of democratic votes. Socialist states have made great democratic strides, even if they haven’t been perfect immediately. A good article on this is Why Do Marxists Fail to Bring the “Worker’s Paradise?” It goes over the materialist basis for democratic structures, and how they must be built, not simply commanded into existence.
Ever heard of Stalin take on communism ? Or the CCP one ? Your brand of communism is internationalist as long as it means colonizing and assimilating other countries lmao
You could read works like Marxism and the National Question or The Right of Nations to Self-Determination, or look at how the USSR supported national liberation movements in Palestine, Algeria, Cuba, Korea, and more. Or, you could just smugly gesture and make no points, I guess.
Sure, the nazis didn’t justify their actions by saying they were fighting against a global elite that oppressed the poor german people.
You can look at history and see who was served by the Communists and who was served by the fascists. Again, read Blackshirts and Reds. Equating the Nazis with the Communists is fascist apologia.
Also it’s true that your tankies regime never had any way of putting any dissenting people into submission using the state apparatus.
Socialist States have used starw power to continue to exist, yes.
I can continue dunking on your ignorant asses all day if you want, but you should spend your time actually reading theory, but also academic literature so you can do your autocritic brother, because you’re pretty cringe.
You didn’t “dunk” on anyone. You gish-galloped, acted smug, and offered no reading nor analysis. I have read roughly 3 dozen Marxist works and history books on the subject, including academic works. Smugly acting like I haven’t and offering no theory or academic works you think would be helpful is worthless grandstanding.
The fact is, I disagree with you because I’ve read academic literature, history books, and Marxist theory, and nothing you’ve said meaningfully challenges it.
Equating Xinjiang to Palestine when they are entirely different situations. Here’s an idea: compare approval rates for the CPC and/or the PRC in Xinjiang and approval rates for Israel in Palestine.
They’ll just do the non-falsiable orthodoxy thing. If approval is high it’s because the authoritarian government rigged the polls. If approval is low it shows the will of the people to resist their evil [Slurs but in French] tankie redfash oppressors.
The fact is, I disagree with you because I’ve read academic literature, history books, and Marxist theory, and nothing you’ve said meaningfully challenges it.
Yes but have you considered that you don’t know the Chinese story with the frog? Checkmate silly tankie.
That Habsburg-assed frog motherfucker is a disgrace to the name Anansi; 106% that’s a thieving cracker who wouldn’t know the FIRST story about that god.
They probably don’t even know about Tiger’s balls!
Not the frog
For starters, this is largely gish-gallop. You never back up any of your claims, and you strawman claims I have never made. These two logical fallicies make up the structure of your comment, gish-gallop a bunch of claims I never made and then “dunk” on them. I’ll go section by section.
Yeah, projection again. Last time I’ve provided sources you told me that it was just gish galoping too lol
I’m also trying to cite all your comments I’m responding to, to avoid such claims but well…
This is the “China Bad” section.
No, this is China not perfect section. Starting with a straw-man.
You begin by making racist claims that “Chinese assimilation” is so core to Chinese identity that it is an inevitability.
Yes, because historical materialism is now racism.
It is also racist to consider that the history of power structures in a country/region will impact future power structures.
You also at one point side with the British Empire with respect to Hong Kong, and again provided no evidence that the majority wish to break away from the PRC in any case.
If you see me illustrating that this is still the way China handle other cultures/ethnicity by using the case of Hong-Kong as a support of english colonialism, you might need to also reflect again about straw-manning.
and again provided no evidence that the majority wish to break away from the PRC in any case.
There was and still is an HK independence movement, the “umbrella revolution” and the overall repression of dissent by mainland China during this time. Maybe they are a minority, but we’ll never really know since there was no effort to ensure that the people of HK can actually decide for themselves.
Anansi, I need you to carefully consider any subject that leads you to side with the worst Empire in the world in a way that you materially benefit from. Be hyper-skeptical, don’t just side with the West and accept its narrative whole cloth, because you have every material reason to.
See, I’d tell you to also carefully consider what you’re willing to accept just because some country sides against another you don’t like, to be hyper skeptical and not just side with China while accepting its narrative whole cloth, because you want to be right.
China as a whole could do better, and should do better as probably the last country not yet completely gangrened by capitalism. While the BRI is probably the best policy that ever came up for international development and cooperation, especially since it’s the only thing that can actually challenge the hegemony of the west, it doesn’t excuse the fact that part of it come from ethnic cleansing/forced assimilation/genocide/whatever term you like.
Taking this as an endorsement of western colonial and imperial politics is either fanaticism or bad faith.
You acting like China doesn’t have propaganda that is used to serve its interest. Accepting all their declaration as gospel is as naive as believing any propaganda about China coming from the west.
You reducing this whole section as me dismissing all China did is on point for tankies, but missing the actual point.
This section is categorized by the running stream “Marxism bad.” Anansi, you make it extremely clear that you have never read Marxist theory beyond perhaps the Manifesto, because you make numerous foundational errors in this section.
Sure bud.
Equating Xinjiang to Palestine when they are entirely different situations. Here’s an idea: compare approval rates for the CPC and/or the PRC in Xinjiang and approval rates for Israel in Palestine.
I’m sure approval rates in one case or the other won’t suffer from any kind of bias. I’d trust equally the measure of the approval rate taken by Israel in Palestine that I’ll trust the one taken by the PRC in Xinjiang.
I’d be glad to get the numbers though, especially if it’s coming from a source that can be trusted and take into account the difference between settler votes and “native” population.
What you’re missing, is you completely dismissing the question of self determination when we’re talking about Xinjiang, but not in the case of Palestine, which I again refer as performative due to the cognitive dissonance needed to have this standing.
The claim that Communists have sided with fascists against Anarchists is unsubstantiated
I mean, that could be my bad I guess for not providing sources, I thought this was part of history teaching everywhere. The purges in spain organized by the NKVD of anti-Stalinist factions and members, like Nin, Robles, Berneri or the overall POUM is not a secret nor was it ever even denied.
This covers a bit more in depth the infighting between the “non Stalinian” front and the USSR lead militia, if you’re actually interested. The author can’t also really be seen as a CIA agent.
I could also talk about the history of the spanish national front, the influence of the USSR lead comintern in its policies and alliances that created a climate of instability that was strong enough to make it possible for Franco to start shit, if you want, but that’ll take quite a bit longer and is far more publicly documented.
The idea that the State “withering away” means that at some point the government needs to dissolve itself and “give itself back to the people,” when Marx’s idea of Communism is a fully centrally planned publicly owned economy and that the Marxist idea of a State is different from the Anarchist idea of a State
Yes, not sure we’re disagreeing here? The democratic centralism comes not from Marx, but from Lenin in his own interpretation of Marx, though, unless you’re equating socialism and democratic centralism, which is a bit far fetched.
Marx himself did not really give any “plan” for what “communism” was, did not even really differentiate between “communism” and “socialism”, and was pretty tame in his late life when writing his critique of the program of the german worker’s party about their view of what communism was.
The withering of the state is also nice and all, but was pretty much put into the backseat when Stalin adapted Lenin’s work about Marx’s work too, which he also did for anything related to auto-determination rights. This kinda started the split between classical/traditional marxism and state socialism, not sure why you’re mixing up everything here, nor what point you’re trying to make.
The claim that Anarchists are “more” left than Marxists, which is nonsense ideology measuring and has no materialist basis, both Marxism and Anarchism are left regardless
I’m not talking about “being more left”, but about ruining other leftist revolutionary movements to cement yours as the only alternative, while at the same time destroying the core values of communism to end up an authoritarian state capitalist societies with as much exploitation as any other capitalist country, while in the meantime making “communism” a bad word.
The idea that we do not organize is false, many of us are members of Communist or Anarchist orgs and do good work on the ground
Sure.
You fully believe that Marxists support Marxism because they are power-level scalers?
That is not what you asked tho. “Who forms their political ideology around supporting use of authority, and not based on analysis of material conditions and who modern structures serve”
I was also talking about tankies.
You, indeed, tankies, support authoritarians regimes that lost what they could have of “communist” decades ago, while trying to paint any critic as propaganda or counter-revolutionaries.
Why then do they side with national liberation movements like in Palestine, Hawaii, the Sahel States, the Aztlan people, and more?
Tankies side with them because on the opposite side, it’s the US, by contrarianism.
When it’s not the US or its allies, then it doesn’t matter, which is my point, and what I called performative earlier.
Actual marxists, trots, or even leninists would side with national liberation movements for what they are though, but would also side with the Xinjiang liberation movement. If I wanted to be funny, I’d say that even Staline was supporting Xinjiang independence, but we both know that was for control over the natural resources of the region, which is also why the PRC does not want it to secede.
See, that’s not my stance. This is you, yet again, demonstrably failing to analyze Marxist positions.
This is you again thinking that tankies are actual marxists and not just cosplayers, and thinking I put both in the same bag.
If you just pretend Marxists purely side against the West
Same remark as above.
(putting the rest in another comment)
Yes, because historical materialism is now racism.
It is also racist to consider that the history of power structures in a country/region will impact future power structures.
That isn’t what you said. You said, and I quote
My whole point on the Xinjiang topic was that you all chose to ignore chinese history that goes pretty much as far as we have written history of it, explaining the whole way of dealing with minorities by forced assimilation, coming from the clanic and dynastic organization of Chinese provinces for millenias.
Which is pure bullshit and completely flies in the face of historical materialism. Not only have you failed to explain how “clanic and dynastic organisation of chinese provinces” is relevant to the forced assimilation of minorities, but you have also failed to explain how this “impacts future power structures”. Are you saying that the PRC is organised on clan and dynastic lines?
And furthermore, the idea that thousands of years of forced assimilation of minorities would be continued despite the transition of the mode of production from slavery all the way to primitive socialism is completely absurd and flies in the face of historical materialism. You have not posited a historically contingent/transient process, you have posited a static unchanging constant of Chinese culture, which is apparently to genocide minorities.
You chose to ignore the whole area of study about sinicization, which is pretty much that subject, and you also chose to ignore how similar the situation is between the PRC and provinces that want to be independant, to what Israel is doing with Palestine, which stems from the same imperialistic logic. You chose to ignore that the acceleration in the settlement and ethnic erasure of the Xinjiang province is strangely close to the acceleration of the BRI project.
You have not even considered that the so called “sinicization” occuring today in China amongst minorities is simply the natural result of economic integration. Any nation is constituted of community of people united by language, territory and economic life. When underdeveloped minority regions are integrated into the broader national economy, they gradually loose their minority character. How do you think France came to be? Did the French nation simply exist from the beginning of time? Or did it form after various minority groups were brought under the same government under one market?
Furthermore, that you would compare palestine to xinjang betrays your lack of understand of either region’s history and utterly privileged position as an imperialist, who cannot tell the difference between live streamed mass murder and economic development where God forbid, a people’s culture is changing in ways you don’t like.
Their argument is utterly farcical, and they dare to take the high-horse and pretend to understand Historical Materialism without even tying mode of production into the equation. Deeply silly.
Here’s a hint: the Communists sided against the fascists committing the Holocaust and liberated Aushwitz, doing far more of the fighting than any Western nation that would have had the Nazis and Communists kill each other off.
Yes, after negotiating a split of Europe with them, because it was in their material interest to do so.
They were “biding their time” by sending german and austrians anti-fascists and communists to the Nazi regime, spreading in baltic territories and western europe, until they were themselves the target of the nazi regime.
They had material interests in their alliance with the nazis, and they only broke that alliance because they were fucked over, not because of ideology, “biding their time”, or wanting to liberate people.
The “biding their time” excuse is also only used anymore by tankies due to the abundant proofs that the NKVD ignored all warnings about the Nazis maybe being bad people that were going to betray them, the most famous case being the one of Richard Sorge. This excuse was even said to be false by Gorbachev during the glasnost period, and the initial document made public.
They did it because they didn’t really have the option of doing nothing anymore, else they’d have both fascists and capitalist going against them. They allied by material interest.
Remarkable, no actual analysis of Marxist history. The Soviets could have liberalized at any time, but did so later in their existence, why?
I mean this is kind of the consequence of Stalin’s death, nobody in the party really wanting to be associated with Stalinism and what he did anymore, Khrushchev openly admitting that capitalist countries had better standards of living and promising to reach parity, while slowly having the communist sphere of influence reducing due to the cold war efforts to undermine communist regimes.
You cannot compete against a globalizing capitalist economy when you’re not self sufficient and are losing allies, especially when your plan is to pretty much to build a modern country from the bottom.
Alienating China was pretty much the last domino that lead to the USSR having to implode sooner or later. Their “liberalization” was the last breath of their agony.
The PRC is a mostly publicly owned economy with strong central planning despite reintroducing foreign Capital, why?
State owned, yes, not sure what is your underlying question.
If you’re asking why they are not a liberal capitalist country, I’d add “yet” to the question.
The economical rise of China is pretty recent, and they’re starting to produce billionaires that might still not have had the time to corrupt the whole political system like they did in western economies centuries ago.
Also, saying “reintroducing foreign capital” is a pretty dishonest way to present it.
The recent rise in economic power of China is born from the foreign capital of greedy western capitalists that saw China as an infinite source of cheap labor.
I’d like for China to not become another imperialist capitalistic parasite but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the case in a few generations.
Cuba is still Socialist despite brutal sanctions because of it, why?
Mostly because they represent nothing as far as geopolitics are concerned, that they are an island that make them more able to isolate themselves from international interference compared to large coutries like the USSR or China, and also using the military to keep the current power structure intact.
There is pretty much no will since the fall of the USSR to fuck even more with Cuba from the west, and no possibility to “leave” socialism if they ever wanted to, that’s why. I’ll also make clear that I’m not implying that Cubans want to change their government, just to defuse the incoming strawman, just that the material reality is that they can’t.
You have no analysis.
Sure, not sure why you’re then citing unrelated shit after that but you do you.
Marxists don’t advocate for Socialism because of any moral reason
For someone that is proud to be knowledgeable about Marxism theory, I’m a bit surprised by that statement.
The whole point of Marx’s analysis is that socialism is a natural consequence of the power struggle linked to capitalist production, which will irremediably lead to a proletarian revolution.
Marxists that want to accelerate this phenomenon absolutely do it for moral reason. Because they consider that capitalists exploit the proletariat, and that a change is required for more justice.
but because Capitalism itself forms large monopolist syndicates ripe for central planning and public ownership
Marxists see the use of socialism, as in the broader marxist definition, as a way to replace the capitalists in the control of these “monopolist syndicates”, yes. Not because they just happen to be there, but to repair a social injustice.
You cannot simply “will” these structures into existence, that’s why Communists can’t abolish Private Property outright
Yes, and I never even implied that?
Democratic Centralism is not a “farce.”
Indeed, which is why I specifically wrote “Democratic Centralism in practice in your MLs countries irremediably end up as a farce”, which I though was pretty clear in saying that there is a stark difference between actual Democratic Centralism, and what ends up with this name.
Socialist states have made great democratic strides, even if they haven’t been perfect immediately.
Yes, and again, I never even implied the contrary.
You could read works like Marxism and the National Question or The Right of Nations to Self-Determination, or look at how the USSR supported national liberation movements in Palestine, Algeria, Cuba, Korea, and more.
I could also point out that it strangely took Staline’s death for that to happen, and that the differences between his early writings and what he actually did once in power are pretty stark.
Guess what happened to actual internationalists from Trotsky or Lenine’s school of thought when Staline got into power.
Once again, seems that you think tankies are actual marxists, and that you’d rather take writing as material facts than actual material facts.
The fact is, I disagree with you because I’ve read academic literature, history books, and Marxist theory, and nothing you’ve said meaningfully challenges it.
Sure bud.
Another cracker btfo; infinite Charlie Hebdos on your frog-assed country
Yeah, projection again. Last time I’ve provided sources you told me that it was just gish galoping too lol. I’m also trying to cite all your comments I’m responding to, to avoid such claims but well…
How is me answering each of your points directly “gish-galloping?” How is me citing sources for my argument the same as your lack of citing evidence? I’m not talking about quoting me, but evidence.
No, this is China not perfect section. Starting with a straw-man.
It is not a strawman to say that you used this section to decry China. A strawman is making up an argument, not a disagreement in the implications of severity.
Yes, because historical materialism is now racism. It is also racist to consider that the history of power structures in a country/region will impact future power structures.
Claiming that China is assimilationist culturally makes no analysis of power structures, nor is this “Historical Materialism.” Historical Materialism makes analysis of the mode of production and the class relations guiding society. Saying that China was assimilationist in the past, before Communist revolution and proletarian restructuring of society and claiming this assimilationism has economic ties to modern day China is wrong.
If you see me illustrating that this is still the way China handle other cultures/ethnicity by using the case of Hong-Kong as a support of english colonialism, you might need to also reflect again about straw-manning.
You were against China taking Hong Kong back, that implies you wished it remained with England. If you have a different stance, then make it.
What is a nation?
There was and still is an HK independence movement, the “umbrella revolution” and the overall repression of dissent by mainland China during this time. Maybe they are a minority, but we’ll never really know since there was no effort to ensure that the people of HK can actually decide for themselves.
Yes, and there was and still is a pro-PRC movement in Hong Kong. See what people actually want before immediately siding with the Global North over the Global South.
See, I’d tell you to also carefully consider what you’re willing to accept just because some country sides against another you don’t like, to be hyper skeptical and not just side with China while accepting its narrative whole cloth, because you want to be right.
I have been careful, and hyper-skeptical. Only you have been oversimplifying.
China as a whole could do better, and should do better as probably the last country not yet completely gangrened by capitalism. While the BRI is probably the best policy that ever came up for international development and cooperation, especially since it’s the only thing that can actually challenge the hegemony of the west, it doesn’t excuse the fact that part of it come from ethnic cleansing/forced assimilation/genocide/whatever term you like.
You call it a fact and support it with nothing. You claim it’s because the spooky Chinese are assimilationists and genocidal ethnically, and use that to support your narrative.
Taking this as an endorsement of western colonial and imperial politics is either fanaticism or bad faith. You acting like China doesn’t have propaganda that is used to serve its interest. Accepting all their declaration as gospel is as naive as believing any propaganda about China coming from the west.
Good thing I don’t accept everything good and everything bad about China!
You reducing this whole section as me dismissing all China did is on point for tankies, but missing the actual point.
To be clear, you dismissed China as ethnically assimilationist and never once praised anything about China, so it’s not hard to see you as anti-China, period. I answered the points you raised, of course I didn’t answer whatever occupies your mind-palace alone.
Sure bud.
Let’s see how you defend the foundational errors you made with Marxism!
I’m sure approval rates in one case or the other won’t suffer from any kind of bias. I’d trust equally the measure of the approval rate taken by Israel in Palestine that I’ll trust the one taken by the PRC in Xinjiang.
Why? Israel is a settler-colonial ethno-state built on stolen land, the PRC is just China. Seems your own bias is showing.
I’d be glad to get the numbers though, especially if it’s coming from a source that can be trusted and take into account the difference between settler votes and “native” population.
What would count as a source you trust?
What you’re missing, is you completely dismissing the question of self determination when we’re talking about Xinjiang, but not in the case of Palestine, which I again refer as performative due to the cognitive dissonance needed to have this standing.
I don’t dismiss the question of self-determination. I question your determination for the residents of Xinjiang, rather than theirs. For Palestine we see daily slaughter, we just don’t for Xinjiang, nor do we see large popular independence movements.
I mean, that could be my bad I guess for not providing sources, I thought this was part of history teaching everywhere. The purges in spain organized by the NKVD of anti-Stalinist factions and members, like Nin, Robles, Berneri or the overall POUM is not a secret nor was it ever even denied.
The Trotskyists allied with German and Francoist forces to kick off the May Day revolts, and the USSR stepped in. This has been documented via archival evidence. This is not a cut and dry case of the Communists siding against Anarchists with fascists, but a complicated instance of infighting. Why would the Soviets “switch sides?”
This covers a bit more in depth the infighting between the “non Stalinian” front and the USSR lead militia, if you’re actually interested. The author can’t also really be seen as a CIA agent.
Yes, the anti-Communists often worked against the USSR. This was counter-productive for the Spanish civil war.
I could also talk about the history of the spanish national front, the influence of the USSR lead comintern in its policies and alliances that created a climate of instability that was strong enough to make it possible for Franco to start shit, if you want, but that’ll take quite a bit longer and is far more publicly documented.
Probably would take a lot longer.
Yes, not sure we’re disagreeing here? The democratic centralism comes not from Marx, but from Lenin in his own interpretation of Marx, though, unless you’re equating socialism and democratic centralism, which is a bit far fetched.
All “Democratic Centralism” means is that the whole is beholden to democratic decisions.
Marx himself did not really give any “plan” for what “communism” was, did not even really differentiate between “communism” and “socialism”, and was pretty tame in his late life when writing his critique of the program of the german worker’s party about their view of what communism was.
Marx predicted how it would function based on how Capitalism functioned and what it was leading towards, ie decentralized markets into central planning and public ownership. This is the entire point of Scientific Socialism, rather than Utopian. Socialism as a stage in evolution in mode of production, not as an ideal to implement. See Socialism: Utopian and Scientitic. Additionally, Marx did not soften his views in Critique of the Gotha Programme, rather, after the Paris Commune Marx learned that the previous state must be entirely dismantled and replaced.
Cont.
Theses:
- Anarchism, in the course of the 35 to 40 years (Bakunin and the International, 1866–) of its existence (and with Stirner included, in the course of many more years) has produced nothing but general platitudes against exploitation.
These phrases have been current for more than 2,000 years. What is missing is (alpha) an understanding of the causes of exploitation; (beta) an understanding of the development of society, which leads to socialism; (gamma) an understanding of the class struggle as the creative force for the realisation of socialism.
- An understanding of the causes of exploitation. Private property as the basis of commodity economy. Social property in the means of production. In anarchism–nil.
Anarchism is bourgeois individualism in reverse. Individualism as the basis of the entire anarchist world outlook.
{ Defence of petty property and petty economy on the land. Keine Majorität.[1] Negation of the unifying and organising power of the authority.}
- Failure to understand the development of society–the role of large-scale production–the development of capitalism into socialism.
(Anarchism is a product of despair. The psychology of the unsettled intellectual or the vagabond and not of the proletarian.)
- Failure to understand the class struggle of the proletariat.
Absurd negation of politics in bourgeois society.
Failure to understand the role of the organisation and the education of the workers.
Panaceas consisting of one-sided, disconnected means.
- What has anarchism, at one time dominant in the Romance countries, contributed in recent European history?
– No doctrine, revolutionary teaching, or theory.
– Fragmentation of the working-class movement.
– Complete fiasco in the experiments of the revolutionary movement (Proudhonism, 1871; Bakuninism, 1873).
– Subordination of the working class to bourgeois politics in the guise of negation of politics.
-
What is the Third Estate? Everything.
What has it been hitherto in the political order? Nothing.
What does it desire to be? To become something.
I’m genuinely impressed.

“MON FROMAGE TU ES UN ANTISEMETE PARCE QUE TU ME DIS UN NPC!!!”
Irredeemable dipshits like you who have normalized making bad faith allegations of antisemitism to win petty arguments and/or run apologetics for imperialism are part of the reason why pissrael has been able to get away with ethnic cleansing and genocide for decades without an ounce of condemnation from western groups. Disgraceful.
They are primarily authoritarians who like to call themselves leftist, but use the same tools, have the same political vision, the same organization, and politically and historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges.
That’s the galactic range projection, herr Noske
Fuck what I said before: I don’t want the Sahel to kick France out of the motherland.
I WANT THE ALLIANCE OF SAHEL STATES TO INVADE FRANCE AND BURN IT TO THE FUCKING GROUND.
Not a solitary square kilometer of land should be left untouched. I dream of a Black Sherman, from Mali, or Burkina Faso, or Niger, or hell even Chad or another country that’s yet to join the alliance-- I dream of this man, driving a fucking tank over the rubble that used to be the Eiffel Tower. I dream of a Black Sherman, immolating every colonizing Boer who ever fixed their faces to joke about the motherland’s failures of nation building. A million Charlie Hebdos on those frog-assed crackers is not enough.
(And it’s super-cute how Camus told on his entire people; ‘you cosign millions of deaths’ you tellin me millions of frogs talk shit on the motherland? Betttttttttt)
Death to France. Death to Spain. Death to Portugal. Death to Britain. Death to every Nordic country. Death to Amerika. Death to every settler that ever benefited from chattel slavery and colonialism, past and present.
EDIT: ALSO, ALSO; how the fuck can one Amerikan Black them possibly call the entirety of the Alliance of Sahel States to action, to violence? Explain to me how you frog-assed cacs think that’s possible. Do you think I’m Ibrahim Traoré in the flesh? Do you think I am Julius Malema? Do you think I’m the second coming of Sankara? Much as I’d love to renounce my citizenship and move to Burkina Faso, I can’t even afford the exit tax, never mind the flight out. How I’m supposed to make this real? Juche necromancy?
Here’s the difference between us and jlai: I want y’all Carthage’d for all you’ve done over hundreds of years to not just the motherland but its diaspora. For centuries of ongoing malfeasance. You could run up on your leaders today, end it all, divest all ties, and I’d embrace you as brothers; but I’m not that naive. You, on the other hand, want us beaten and incarcerated because we hurt your fragile-assed feelings LAST WEEK. Death to the settler; especially the ignorant ones that can’t wrap their minds around how more than one western power built its fortunes off the back of the slave trade and colonialism, both classical and modern.
Vous crackers, êtes les choses les plus méprisables que j’aie jamais vues; et je ne prie que pour que malheur soit sur vous et sur la lignée qui vous suivra.
I WANT THE ALLIANCE OF SAHEL STATES TO INVADE FRANCE AND BURN IT TO THE FUCKING GROUND.
dommage mais juste
I don’t understand why they keep linking to your original comment as if you said something unhinged. I’m french myself and I agreed with what you said:
-
Yes, France should stop occupying the Sahel
-
Yes, France should give back all the gold it stole from Africa
Anansi and Camus keep saying that they are leftists, but leftists are anti-colonial, so what does it make them if they disagree with that?
Honestly, if the Lemmy userbase wasn’t that small, it wouldn’t surprise me that jlailu is a DGSI operation to stop french people from going too far left and actually start threatening the geopolitical interests of the french bourgeoisie, because the things those guy say really don’t add up with who they say they are.
Update:
These brainless fascist morons want to report the site to whatever the fuck “Pharos” is (probably their equivalent of the SS - YEP literally the fucking SS) because they’re angry at the

Shout out to whoever https://lemmy.world/u/soumerd_*removed*ataire is what a legend.
Can you link the comment Soumerd_whatever is getting caught in the slur filter.
Sure thing here is a link to their most recent comment
Oh my, they actually want to report the communists to the regime.
It turns out jlai.lu never left Vichy France. They completely dropped the leftist mask.
That is kind of delicious.
“You tankies always side with Fascism!”
*literally actually reports the tankies to the French state so the French cops can shut down the mean tankies*
Fucking called it; nazis to the fucking marrow.
Holy shit I just went to brodie soumerd’s page bc I remember that poster well enough to know their username seeing how our filters Sc/thorpe’d them-- and lemme tell you, I love seeing infographics that prove my point.
It will never not be funny to me that cracker Camus is in buddy-buddy with people who was talm bout “throw communists down wells and break their hands with sticks when thy try to climb out” on some TEMU Pinochet shit, but wants to cry like a freshly-shorn castrati because I want all colonizers and settlers on the planet to pay every last bit of restitution they owe, to the pain if not diplomatically.
(And no, I don’t think you crackers ever will pay what you owe of your own volition. I’m not that naive.)
No throwing rocks and hiding hands, cracker; that’s law. I stand ten toes down on everything I said.
Will you, Camus? Will you, ‘anansi’?
EDIT: ALSO, ALSO; how the fuck can one Amerikan Black them possibly call the entirety of the Alliance of Sahel States to action, to violence? Explain to me how you frog-assed cacs think that’s possible. Do you think I’m Ibrahim Traoré in the flesh? Do you think I am Julius Malema? Do you think I’m the second coming of Sankara?
Here’s the difference between us and jlai: I want y’all Carthage’d for all you’ve done over hundreds of years to not just the motherland but its diaspora. For centuries of ongoing malfeasance. You could run up on your leaders today, end it all, divest all ties, and I’d embrace you as brothers; but I’m not that naive. You, on the other hand, want us beaten and incarcerated because we hurt your fragile-assed feelings LAST WEEK. Death to the settler; especially the ignorant ones that can’t wrap their minds around how more than one western power built its fortunes off the back of the slave trade and colonialism, both classical and modern.
Vous crackers, êtes les choses les plus méprisables que j’aie jamais vues; et je ne prie que pour que malheur soit sur vous et sur la lignée qui vous suivra.
Anansi and Camus keep saying that they are leftists, but leftists are anti-colonial, so what does it make them if they disagree with what you said?
Pfffff. Some leftists. The only ‘left’ about them is the side of their bodies they wear their collaborator-assed armbands on.
Here’s the thing about crackers, regardless of the country they (illegitimately) occupy: calling out their plunder is always considered the highest faux-pas. These crackers like to feign erudition and high-road moralism at all times; pointing out the fact that even the lowest pirate or buccaneer has more of a code of honor about them than what global crackery could ever muster might as well be an open declaration of war.

I dream of this man, driving a fucking tank over the rubble that used to be the Eiffel Tower.
I think you’d have an easier time making the arc of triumph into rubble than the eiffel tower tbh
Let me dream 😤
BASED BEYOND BELIEF
If there’s any people on this earth that I hate as much as I hate white Amerikans if not more? It’s the fucking French. At least I don’t have to live under their thumb; but the motherland does. I want those frogs to fuckin pay for it; the exact same way I want white Amerika to pay for it
ABSOLUTELY. Every non western country will celebrate for weeks when those arrogant insufferable terminally racist colonial chauvinists and nation-destroying thieves finally get the fiery justice they deserve.
And gods willing I will be there for it
god this made my toes tingle with excitement
gotta love the Fr*nch talking like this meanwhile their country threw peaceful protestors out of airplanes. that was 62 years ago, today they shoot African kids then beat up the ones that protest against the killing
Yeah and they still to this day support the kingdom of morocco’s colonization of the western sahara along with the us and isntreal.
I just saw that thread like “aren’t the frogs whinging right now that they’re getting dragged for being colonizing bullet-stops?”
A fr*nch person one time wanted me to apologize because I did accept his apology of his country’s reaction to the war, the fr+nxh are beyond parody
Truly some of the most contemptible settlers on the planet
The French when you call out their neo colonialism…
hitting the translate button on a french tweet is either the missing page of colombus or a maoist
Now I want to see Maoist Standard French, haha
I suggest CCC, from “les pères blancs” => “les pères blanCCCs” => franCCCe
Excellent
hon hon hon oui oui mon pee pee tuer les proprietaires
Not enough k’s sis; get your dander up
The french when Haiti stops paying reparations to Paris.
Le wokisme est le vrai fascisme :( les fascistes noirs et rouges ont volé mes esclaves :(((
Le wokisme
politically and historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges
at a certain point it just stops being historical illiteracy and becomes outright bad faith
deleted by creator
that sounds awfully authoritarian from him
@[email protected]. Tsk tsk tsk…
et ont tendance politiquement et historiquement à s’allier aux fascistes “officiels” dès qu’un mouvement réellement de gauche révolutionnaire émerge.
Says the frog from the country that immediately capitulated to the fascists and reorganized itself into a fascist ally state in ww2
It is kinda funny their evidence for genocide is Xinjiang is “Everyone knows that Chinese people are evil because some guy did a bad thing in 250 ad” and then they’re like… idk, French. Like by that standard we should accuse them of building cathedrals and extorting Rome for gold using shitty weights and measures.
extorting Rome for gold using shitty weights and measures
That’s based, though, Rome was a slaving empire
Yeah Brennus was a very funny guy.
I’d accuse those Frankish barbarians of committing genocide against the native Gauls in the north and committing cultural genocide against them in the south
The virgin cuck well vs the chad cuck pit.
