China: Even though the 1980s capitalist reforms were only supposed to last until China achieved modernization and prosperity, which we've already achieved, we have to keep being capitalist for 100 more years, but then we totally promise we'll become socialist long after you're dead.

This post reminds me of this paragraph from Chapter 1 of The Communist Manifesto:


@aaronp@beige.party

The bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It has pitilessly torn asunder the motley feudal ties that bound man to his β€œnatural superiors”, and has left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, than callous β€œcash payment”. It has drowned the most heavenly ecstasies of religious fervor, of chivalrous enthusiasm, of philistine sentimentalism, in the icy water of egotistical calculation. It has resolved personal worth into exchange value and, in place of the numberless indefeasible chartered freedoms, has set up that single, unconscionable freedom β€” Free Trade. In one word, for exploitation, veiled by religious and political illusions, it has substituted naked, shameless, direct, brutal exploitation.

A proletarian revolution can only succeed in a developed capitalist country.

I'm not so convinced of Vanguardism anymore. The plan behind it is to lead the working class, but it never just leads them. The vanguard forces people to go a certain direction, which will only cause them to want to go in the opposite direction. This isn't just my opinion, but it is a psychological phenomenon known as reactance, which is when a person precieves their freedom of choice being threatened or eliminated,... 1/3

The deviation from the Marxist scientific theory of revolution that says that a proletarian revolution take place in a developed capitalist society is at least partly the reason why socialist states that took this deviation (e.g., Soviet Union) failed.

If you disagree, why?

If a colonized or semi-colonized nation wants to have a socialist revolution, a national liberation movement must preceed it. This was true for China, North Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, and many other countries. The US is no different. It is a colonial nation over the Native and African people living there. If a socialist revolution is to happen in the US, a national liberation of the colonized Native and African US people must happen first.

Material reality is all that we know exist. Things like supernatural entities (gods, ghosts, souls, spirits, etc), consciousness and mental processes separate from matter, or abstract concepts separate from matter are not proven facts and should not be believed in until proven to be true.

Abolishing capitalism should be the goal, not reforming capitalism.

Social Democrats (Bernie Sanders, AOC) are NOT on the side of the workers. The moment the workers can overthrow capitalism, they will betray them in favor of the capitalists and even the fascists. History proves it.
