1 Is power and wealth part of the same object in measureing class?

2 Is industrial development environmentally sustainable?

3 Is the complex of the national/ethnic/local capital and state permanently dead or is it expected to resurrect itself?

4 Is worker oppression and exploitation visible when class is defined as it was in 19th century, or has management become capitalists by proxy?

5 Is the urban half of humanity conscious of the necessary exploitation and oppression of the other half? And how different have the mechanisms of control of both become?

Pro-Capitalists (including their serving tail of social reformers and disillusioned liberals ) believe that #NeoLiberalism is some form of ideology, people adopt those ideals and conduct politics accordingly.

Mainstream Marxists, clinging to their form of orthodoxy as it is the last raft they can float on, dismiss that there is such thing as NeoLiberalism

The few of those that try to pseudo-theorize about neoliberalism as an econ/polit. ideology and influence in politics, fail both in truly explaining historical events and convince the remaining Marxist community of the validity of their theorizing (branded charlatans and excommunicated)

Still there is a pattern described by events, the rhetoric of those who advocate of neoliberalism, some pseudo-theorists/philosophers who are portrayed my dominant culture as "fathers" of the doctrine, that as a sum is branded neoliberalism.

Just like capitalism, what is referred to as neoliberalism, comes to describe action, political, economic, social, organizational, after it materializes. Not the other way around. Fools think the idea was there, someone got convinced and practiced what the idea was about.

Since apart of Marxism we have no other theoretical/scientific tool to explain capitalism, either we have to lie about reality and deny it to defend theory, or we are failing to apply the correct theory appropriately to explain reality. The quick fact is the two don't exactly blend together and it has become more and more evident they don't.

The third possibility is there are certain faults, or extensions needed in current theory to explain the transition of the classical modern state (pre 1930s) and the later modern capitalist state (post 1940s) .. as the late rebound lead by the US as attempting to revert the transition referred to as neoliberalism.

Skipping back to the last known water-tight floating compartment we have, dialectical-materialism/science, we must re-examine where theory fails, what revision and extension it needs. But who are we to do it?

We can't be Marxists because they are too afraid to criticize and re-examine what they are floating on, they will faithfully and "religiously" defend every word and psalm they got. I wish they could consider.

We can't be idealists, because they are full of shit and in their cloudy mind if they think anything it is possible. Waste of breath speaking to the intoxicated.

What we have left is #anarchism but only within those who accept #Bakunin's materialist commitment (NoGodNoMaster) .. those who understand that #communism is not only possible, it is scientifically the only sustainable form of survival for humanity. (Communism NOT State Capitalism)

Those who understand that true equality is the foundation of freedom. #Libertarian #Communist / #Communalist

Theory and ideology, just as it happened with #Marxism, has the risk of forming organizational instruments that inevitably become hierarchical/authoritarian, due to an elite of experts forming around theoretical development. Unfortunately, with society drifting further and further away from struggle for equality, we may need to develop new theory to convince everyone (in our class at least) how futile capitalism is.

And as usual ... we have much work and cooperation that is needed while we are floating in this trend of dismissing any attempt for exploration ..

Самая большая ошибка теоретиков Анархо-Коммунизма, кроме Бакунина, в том что откинут Диалектический Материализм на равне с остальными инструментами Материалистической философии.

И отказ этот был продиктован желанием дистанцироваться от марксистов и предрассудками к самому методу, чем теоретической потребностью самого Анархизма в отказе от него.

P.s: Сам-же Марксизм перенял Диалектику из Платона и его книги "Государство".

"Universal suffrage does not prevent the formation of a body of politicians, privileged in fact though not by right, who, by devoting themselves exclusively to the direction of the public affairs of a country, finally form a sort of political aristocracy or oligarchy." #Bakunin #Anarchism

Коллективная ответственность подразумевает имущественное и юридические равенство богатых и бедных перед законом.

Надо-ли объяснять записавшимся в ряды анархистов, что: уборщица не равна корпорации, курьер не равен депутату, а человек не отвечает за рабство и угнетения других по факту цвета кожи и наличия половых органов?

📕 9/04/26 Presentació del llibre Bakunin davant de Marx amb el seu autor Carlos Taibo

Us proposem aquesta activitat amb la intenció de poder obrir un debat entre les dues postures, explorar quins són els possibles punts en comú i si són possibles les aliances entre elles en el moment actual en què vivim.

https://blogs.sindominio.net/lacinetika/2026/04/01/9-04-26-presentacio-del-seu-llibre-bakunin-davant-de-marx-amb-el-seu-autor-carlos-taibo/

Pasado mañana el grupo de lectura de CNT Madrid vamos a ponernos con "Las aventuras de Bakunin" de César Galiano Royo. Esta novela narra, con ritmo trepidante, el viaje de las ideas anarquistas a España a través de la misión de Giuseppe Fanelli. El libro desentierra la emocionante fundación de los primeros grupos internacionalistas en Barcelona y su arraigo imparable, con la disputa entre los titanes Marx y Bakunin como telón de fondo, recuperando una parte vital de nuestra propia historia obrera.

La cita es el jueves 🗓️ 26 de marzo a las 🕖 19:00, en nuestro local.

Será una oportunidad para debatir 🗣️, de forma 🫂 cercana e 🪑 informal, cómo estas ideas, sembradas hace más de un siglo, germinaron en nuestro suelo y cómo su legado de lucha federalista y antiautoritaria resuena en nuestras propias prácticas organizativas y horizontales.

Como siempre, la actividad es abierta a afiliadas y no afiliadas. Si no lo has leído, recuerda, lo importante es el debate y las reflexiones que construyamos juntas.

Lo puedes encontrar en la FAL

Te esperamos para compartir esta aventura por los orígenes de nuestras ideas y reencontrarnos con las raíces de nuestra historia.

Today in Labor History March 23, 1871: Far left workers proclaimed communes in Lyon and Marseilles. The Paris Commune began March 18. Workers, including Cluseret and Mikhail Bakunin and other anarchists and left socialists of the International Workingmen’s Association, had tried to create a commune in Lyon in 1870, as well. Prior to this, Cluseret fought the bourgeois moderates during the 1848 Paris uprising. And in 1860, he joined Garabaldi in his fight for Italian independence. In 1860, when William Sewell made a plea for European generals, he joined Union army with letters of support from Garibaldi, serving as a colonel, commanding troops in Shenandoah Valley. He eventually rose to the rank of general, but eventually quit when he was accused of insubordination for complaining about the abuse of civilians by Union troops. After that, he joined the Irish Republican cause, managing to escape a death sentence by the British. During the Paris Commune, Cluseret served as Minister of War. However, when he refused to arrest Monsignior Darboy, Archbishop of Paris, he was arrested for collusion with the enemy.

Cluseret once said, “the U.S. presents that strange anomaly of enslaved labor in a free nation. Politically free, the worker is socially the capitalists’ serf.”

Marx called him an opportunist and an overambitious babbler.
