@anarchismhub The Ukrainian riot, the overthrow of the democratic government by western neo-nazi instigators (AZOV) fails to be portrayed as imperialism and a hostile takeover of the government of Ukraine by US/EU forces.
#imperialism accused by the imperialists.
Whose side are you on?
Peoples' side, the labor unions and anti-capitalists of Russia and Ukraine, of #Donetsk and #luhansk
@anarchismhub Only FBI/CIA propaganda machines advocate the war was instigated by Russia and Ukraine is on the defensive, the rest of the universe clearly sees 10+ years of US/EU aggression by proxy the Ukrainian coup instigating a war with #Russia
But just like in 1944 the western imperialist capitalist machine failed
Happy #VICTORYday everyone
@Radical_EgoCom I am willing to speculate that I probably read all this before you were born, but the assumption here is the classic fear and aversion of Marxists to discuss anything theoretical. Instead of responding to the question posed your assumption is I am asking because I didn't read or didn't understand the book, or the theory.
The economical analysis of how capitalism works and how the object is the exploitation of labor I fully understand and agree. Politically Marx and Engels did very little work, and this done by their religious followers is PURE idealism and extremely anti-materialist. So I can't disagree more with Leninism and all of its false assumptions that serve nobody else but the elite of the vanguard party.
Within what Marxist perceive as 1 class, the working class I clearly see 2 classes, the managers and the managed. The true enemy today not as visible in 19th century, is the managerial class. I have been accused as an anarchist by marxists and of PolPotism by anarchists (most vanguards themselves) ... but I will remain a libertarian materialist ... till of course I find someone to convince me otherwise.
Sometimes, late in life, when one discovers they were wrong, it is better to die (materially and/or socially) than to admit being wrong for such a long time.
Which I think it is precisely why N.Poulantzas commuted suicide, when realizing after writing 15 books he discovered how wrong he was.
@Radical_EgoCom > with the working class as the ruling class.
If the state is abolished why would there be another class?
The reason to have a state is to maintain inequality, to maintain the hegemony of the "haves" being on top of the "have nots".
@Radical_EgoCom Would it be possible then?
1 If the working class was organized and stuggled against the dominance of the capitalist class to gain and improve the material conditions for their class and against the interests of the capitalist class?
2 Would the state then by passing labor laws, welfare systems, serve the working class as well in several states?
3 Since partially losing control of their instrument, the state, the ruling class would go on the defensive and further organize its class, correct?
So is it possible the evolutionary form of capitalist organization has created a mechanism to regain control of all states, in its new form of federated capitalist class organization that is housed in the world's largest banks and financial institutions?
Therefore, taking control of the state means less and less day by day as control and management of resources (including labor) is passed to a higher authority than the state.
This explains the end of social democracy, dismantling of labor law structures, welfare, pension, health service. A capitalist dictatorship going global with the illusion of the useless state as camouflage. The state being rendered useless for both classes at this stage, but the general population is still per-occupied in memes of their state representatives and pseudo-policy making.
After all it is dialectical historical materialism at its finest, if not where is the fault in assumptions and analysis?
@anarchistquotes The fallacy here is a rich black industrialist man killing his white anarchist female workers ... on the basis of color while they were fighting him on the basis of sexism and exploitation
But you are just a bot, what is the point of arguing unless its programming is modified?
@ZekuZelalem As long as race/ethinicity/religion is seen before class not much is ever going to change. Would it matter if it was an Ethiopian woman dying from an unjustified war/bombing or a teenager from Denmark, or a man from Nebraska? Murder is murder and war crimes are war crimes. The fact the Ethiopian woman was a maid to a rich Lebanese man, or a man from Nebraska living in Lebanon selling weapons to Hezbollah does matter in a different way. And the average Ethiopian teen wouldn't have the resources to be living a bohemian life in Beihrut, but a Danish one can.
So I say poor lives matter will help all of us get out of the ditch, no ethnicity, race, gender, sexual identity, or religion can break the chains of capitalism, because there are capitalists and their supporters who meet any and all other criteria, and they are our enemies whether black, white, green, muslim, of hindu, women, and non-binaries ....
And there are poor Israelis fighting their government, some are in jail, some even murdered and written off as killed by "terrorists" and that story is not heard in Asia, or Africa, or Europe, and definitely not in America.
For nearly 10 years Ukrainian military and para-military snipers and bombers were killing people in mining towns of Western Ukraine, terrorizing people to quit the union that was at war with illegal landlords treating miners like slaves. The struggle for autonomy of some western regions of Ukraine started as unions of abused workers, no pension, no health care, working for half the legal salary, exporting goods that the government pretended not to know about. Who heard this story? Not even in Russia did they broadcast the truth, they focused on Ukrainians killing Russian civilians with CIA support. If Russia wins do you think those miners in W.Ukraine will be better off, other than not being shot by snipers exiting a grocery store?
I agree it is a very f..ed and depressing world with illusions and lies flooding the media so as the rich and powerful can control us, our lives, what we do, and what we think we can not do.
