Can really not tell the difference between & criticisms of ?

A would say something stupid like " suck because they're secret ", or something like that.

Whereas a would be like "Dems suck because they're NOT Marxists".

Now, to be very clear: I know a lot of really dedicated #progressives, #anarchists, and #socialists as well as full on #communists and #Marxists. I can work with all of them! We're generally pulling in the same direction. Hell, I have #liberal tendencies myself. It's hard not to when you're basically a product of the upper-middle-class, as I have to admit that I am*. But I've never been comfortable ID'ing with any one ideology.

and are frequently accused by liberals and reactionaries of lacking . Questions on the morality of Killing, Stealing, etc. take to be absolute - which is not true. Morality is epochal and is a product of class society. Therefore morality must be analysed before being adopted.

Here's a good talk on morality by a comrade of the Revolutionary Communist Party

SO!, to conclude: #Nazism and #Socialism could not be further separated from each other than they already are. #Marxists were then, are now, and FOREVER WILL BE opposed to Nazism and #fascism, more generally.

People on the right that keep repeating this tired #narrative (which has been #debunked over and over again) don't bother to interrogate it because it is a convenient way to destroy the credibility of their #enemies on " #theleft " while not having to actually engage in political debate with them. It also serves the dual purpose of letting them continue to believe in and espouse #RightWingTalkingPoints guilt-free. In their #ignorance, they don't have to be confronted with the fact (and it is a fact) that, ideologically, they are *far-closer* to being Nazis than the left is.

These are the very theses that every #Ukrainian can see in the space of the own city. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the authorities have begun to strengthen the theses about #freedom and #democracy.

It is worth noting that during the times of "independence" in Ukraine there has never been an influential opposition. And the opposition, as is known, is an indicator that there is at least some kind of struggle between certain sides in the state.

The most striking example of this are the so-called #communist movements, which received certain resources from the bourgeoisie for creating the appearance of opposition. In 2014, after the state coup, the new bourgeois authorities realized that these movements were incapable of anything, so they simply banned the Communist Party of Ukraine, the Progressive #Socialist Party of Ukraine and other "left" organizations to the general joy. By doing this, the capitalists preserved part of the capital and gave the people a new illusory victory.

Another striking example of such an opposition are representatives of Petro Poroshenko's party. They occupy seats in parliament, openly criticize Zelensky's government and hold certain actions. It would seem that there is an opposition in the country, but we need to compare two evils. These two sides are identical, they have no ideological or economic differences. "European Solidarity" and similar political forces are another vivid example of how the #bourgeoisie creates the appearance of an opposition and deceives the people.

Another example of the opposition in Ukraine are social chauvinist organizations of the "left" type. Of course, they have no intention of profiting from the Ukrainian people, but at the same time they dance to the bourgeoisie's tune. "Black Flag" and "Resistance Committee", which instead of fighting the state, go to its defense, explaining this by the fact that if it loses, it will be worse than now. "First defend, and then change!" - they claim.

But in the case of a successful defense of this regime, no changes in favor of the left will occur. The state has long been engaged in the destruction of potential future opposition. "Law enforcement" bodies are acting with the most cannibalistic methods and are trying to keep it quiet in order to hide the repression. Anyone who now stands in defense of this state and hopes that everything will be resolved after the war will face the fate of all political prisoners in Ukraine [A recent example with #Marxists, - translator's note.]

Based on this information, we can conclude that the state only created the illusion of the presence of the opposition, and suppressed the real one. Such a state, like any other, is an enemy that, no matter what, should not be defended. Despite the fact that the repressive machine has already started and is gaining momentum, the people still have a chance to stop this madness and ensure a better fate for future generations.

Freedom to political prisoners! Death to the repressive machine led by the state!

Any is better at critiquing than any anti , I can tell you that for certain. Cos can give actual reasons why, anti-communists always resort to attacks on his character cos they can't debunk the theory.

does not call for "equal distribution". Marx dismissed it as a utopian idea. Yet every bro uses "equal distribution" as a "gotcha" argument against to describe to us how "can't work".

The people screaming for a “popular front” are liberals. History tells us what happens w/ these coalitions.

We need a “united front” of , , , , , etc. are excluded

Don’t rely on people who will be peacefully clapping as we get taken out by the state

There's a massive gap in the left that I'm seeing rn, where many of the most radical among us seem almost unfazed at what's happening the United States, while the more centre-left progressives are bordering on hysteria.

I think it comes down to the fact that many #marxists, #communists, and #anarchists don't see what's going on as unprecedented whereas many progressives, younger #socialists do. I think depending on what facts you highlight and what you focus on, there's truth to this.

I'm not trained in #Marxist theory, but I feel like there could be some interesting Marxist analysis of the surplus value / surplus labor implications of widespread federal layoffs in the U.S.

Do any #Marxists have thoughts on how this plays out and/or can anyone point me to existing analyses?

Discussions that explicitly connect the dots between the #socialtheory and implications for community organizers be especially interesting, if such things exist.

When I criticize for not getting anything done, it's not the own you think it is to say: "Well, neither are you!"

DON'T have power in this country & likely won't for a long time. Democrats DO. As long as Democrats have power, & refuse to use it, I will continue to. Criticize their inaction!
