Practical real world results trump impractical philosophizing. How long will it take for people who label themselves in terms of being Marxist or Socialist to wake up and extract their heads from Marx's cold dead ignorant ass? All Marx really gave the world was mind control sanctioned and enforced by the state ... and a lowered standard of living for everyone except the ruling elite.
This is a slight unmeritable man, meet to be sent on errands: And, though others lay labours on this man, to ease ourselves of divers slanderous loads, he shall but bear them as the ass bears gold, to groan and sweat under the business, either led or driven, as they point him the way; and having brought their treasure where they will, then take they down his load and turn him off, like to the empty ass, to shake his ears and graze in commons; being in the service of the Baron as Marx is.
If you want to know how a communist society should look like or could look like. Read the "paris commune" written by Marx where he lays out how the paris commune worked and how we could learn from it.
Can't say I agree with EVERYTHING concerning the Communist ideology...It seems that I don't fit in with any lateral these days...I might just create my own party pretty soon that caters to my every whim and that of others...
I don't think that hindering humanities self expression and individualism is helpful to advancing this world...
Religion should be free for all to practice in their own way...What I do agree on is simply that ALL currency should be abolished...And that the rich should die.
that works, i think everyone should have their own view of goverment... i wish the center propose of goverment is the advancement of technology, education and science.

Why? Have you bothered checking the track record? Communism was first embraced by priests, ennobled statesmen, kings, and capitalists... Its head Ideologue Marx, was a member of the "ligue des justes" a kabbalistic shoot of of Adam Weishaupts illuminati. Das Kapital (while claiming atheism) is a sort of recifimento of the bible (retaining all of the bible social gospel, but divesting itself of a belief in the supernatural). And then you can consider what type of society it produced. that's why

marxism appeals to the fatuity and emotionalism of the people who embrace... it doesn't appeal to reason and logic. It is all things to all men... it is as versatile as evil itself. The true aims of Communism is what we could observe in Soveit Russia... huge GULAG states with a tiny ruling class lording over millions of slaves... that it the essence of communism... slavery and death.

jakestep17, I agree. The guy looks alike an idiot. Here in Brazil he will find useful idiots like him by the bunch, amogn students, most of the politics, 'intelectuals', catholic communists priests, mst, criminals. He doesn't have to go to the jungles, in our cultural midia he would get applause. I think is better if he goes on to live in Cuba, ya' know, maybe the cubans will kick his ass. lol.
Radicalism needs a theology to go by, as does Communism with Marxist ideology. For Communism to be successful, for the people to go with it, ideological propaganda must propagate. The problem with Communism is it's only a natural way of thinking to few, the rest of us suffer and have suffered, and died, in the name of its abstraction.
socialism and communism have two major problems, they defy human nature, and they cannot compensate for the economic calculation. Capitalism does not need to worry about how many goods to supply, it just happens its natural. Planning and calculating is not natural and therefor flawed. Also capitalism does not fight human nature for greed and material wealth but socialism does, and thus socialism fails.
For most history there was no capitalism, so it doesn't represent any immutable human nature. Capitalism violates solidarity & other human tendencies. Hunter gatherers practiced primitive communism. I oppose central planning. I want federated-decentralized worker's councils to control the economy. Capitalism means wage slavery-renting urself to a boss under threat of starvation. Markets contain inefficiencies e.g. externalities, the effect of a transaction on a 3rd party (a car's pollution etc)
You are responsible for your decisions. It is a competitive world. Most are poor in this world because of collectivism. Most of the poor do not consider the consequences of there incessant breeding. They have children they can't support. Then they expect someone else to pay for their upbringing. Utopia cannot be achieved. Freedom and Capitalism together provide a way to take risk....fail or suceed...LEARN and try again. Why do you think people flock to free capitalist countries?
Most of the world is capitalist and most of the world is poor. Ppl flee from capitalist hellholes like Bangladesh, Indonesia, Haiti etc & when they try to achieve some economic independence, the US destroys the country and blames it on "socialism". Countries labeled "socialist" really arent. Ppl flee because "capitalist" states like the US bombs and exploits them. Freedoms in welfare-for-the-rich countries like the US were achieved by ppl who fought against capitalism. Capitalism is wage slavery
And the conditions of many in the USSR you wouldnt consider poor? Whats your ultimate goal a world free of government that sounds alot like the theory of communism to me. And throughout most of modern history (Agricultural societies to present) one could argue there was a capitalist market economy. Hunter gatherers were small groups but once cities and complex societies formed market economies formed. I for one dont want to go back to our hunter gather roots
Real socialism is about controlling ur productive life. The US&USSR expanded wage slavery by identifying Soviet state brutality&destruction of workers councils with socialism in order to either vilify it or exploit the aura of its ideals. Rejecting workers control on the grounds that it was featured in the rhetoric of leaders is as illogical as rejecting freedom&peace on the grounds they were stated goals of Hitler.The USSR did go from being 3rd to 2nd world but it had nothing to do w/socialism
I oppose hierarchical systems whether statist, capitalist or whatever. As for primitive communism, i didnt say i wanted to go back to it. I was simply refuting ur claims about human nature. The claim that all agricultural societies were capitalist is false. The defining characteristic of capitalism is wage labor (having to rent urself to a boss to survive) Thats a phenomenon of only the last few hundred years (industrial revolution) Feudalism slavery monarchy&other past systems werent capitalist
i did not say that all agricultural societies were capitalist but I was saying one could argue that, especially because of the specialization that occurred and the creation of a medium of exchange, and a lack of government control of the production of goods in services inside these societies. But you have a very narrow idea of capitalism and i have a much broader view and thus this argument will be circular and pointless to maintain.
if it's only a matter of defining words, then we shouldn't have too much of a problem. According to ur definition, my preferred system (anarcho-syndicalism) would be called "capitalist" because it has "specialization...[and] a medium of exchange, and a lack of government control of the production of goods and services." to understand where im coming from i suggest u read the wiki article on wage slavery & u watch the documentary "The Evilness of Power" on google video (link is on my utube page)
Well, anarchists favor non-exploitative personal property i.e. private property for active use and need--not to exploit others. Now, if a certain form of property creation leads to people being forced to work for a boss under threat of starvation then it violates liberty. We think that such wage slavery happens when workplaces and economies in our finite planet are controlled privately or by governments. In order to minimize hierarchy we must abolish the state and exploitative forms of property
Libertarian Socialism is truly the law of Loving your neighbor as yourself and the golden rule of doing onto others as you would have them do to you into political, social, and economic practice. I am a Christian Libertarian Socialist. :)
"Libertarian Socialism is truly the law of Loving your neighbor as yourself"? Really? Because I do not give two damn shits about my neighbor and am a libertarian socialist. Perhaps that's the difference between Christian morale and secularist morale, the former focusses on others the latter on your own luck. Egoist Communism basically.
"Why do you think people flock to free capitalist countries?"
Such as? I don't see anybody flocking to free market capitalist utopias like Bangladesh, Haiti and so on. I see people flocking to countries that gruesomely violate the rules of free market capitalism by massive state intervention in the economy (such as the USA, Europe and Japan).
@PloughTheSky I agree. I may be a little off though in how I think the USA is so socialist. They just wont come out and say that they tax you, and tell you to stop telling the gov what to do with the money. Especially if you r a black person in this country still. True capatalism is not democratic.. You work for who you think is the best Pres, boss what ever you want to call it how then are called warlords like in a much freer Africa. Donkeys and carrots man. ino

OMFG, will you stop over analyzing things. Karl Marx lived in a time quite different than now where workers had absolutely no rights. You talk about being a slave to a landowner, do you think you aren't a slave under Communism?! Why don't you just put a 9mm to your temple because you're in for a rude awakening. You talk about poverty-slavery, I had $2000 went to China and turned it into $200,000. Why? I motivated myself to go out and kick ass. If you want something in life go and get it.

The only ethnic group that truely believes in communism are Jews... as it is there creation and anyone else who does not believe in meritocracy and freedom.
A hard working person should not support those who do less.
Advancement of Civilization has been based of a few things... and communism fosters none of them.
Capitalism is another form of communism they both breed nothing but wolves and are bound to fail. Meritocracy is the only way.
Rewarded? A twist of words can not change the fact... those who work get those who don't don't. A Pay check is not a reward it is equitable trade for services rendered.
That is life? Are you saying humans should through out Natures laws and strive to make our form of human virus breed and live?
Envirmental lottery ? Far from it... Europeans have shaped and form every habitat from all parts of the world... a better choice was Genetic lottery. As European Gentics and Asiatic seem to be at
the top of the list when it comes to the lottery winners.
Why would the rest of the world pick up on Sub-Saharan African species inability to cope to scientific evolution and chose to use our hard earn labor to benefit these genetic/mental slackers? Reward them for what? not working? For not evolving?
Unfortunatly most Marist live in a dream world... Natures laws will always stand taller than mans. Might makes right. Only the fittest(not strognest) survive. Thats is reality.
Comunism sounds better when expressed on the internet (which was grown in a free-market) and on software developed in a near free-market.
The least regulated industry in the States is the internet and nearest to a free-market is seen in tech development. Which is why every year we get more advancement for less money.
The highest regulated markets are in health care and each year we get less for more money!
Internet, just like most technology, computers, airplanes, cd's, container ships etc was developed in the state system&handed over to private power when it was profitable. It's a sign of an indoctrinated person, when s/he identifies the ideas of an anarchist like me with bolshevism simply because of a few Marx quotes--slavingly serving his society's elites by believing the dictators who claim to adopt these ideas (while assuming that all of Marx's thoughts are invalid and lead to a dictatorship)
Okay -- My comment is more accurate and less personal.
I said "developed" not originate -- the state-system did not develop youtube tech, nor microsoft, nor google. Regardless - the tech market IS the least regulated -- any system that has low regulations with advance in tech there is a decrease in prices.
Not so in heavy regulated markets. This is fact.
Plus I was comment on some of the comments not on your video that I turned the sound off after 1 min.
Your ideologies promote zero advancement in the human race. For example... a guy that works at 7 eleven recieves the same amount of capital as the person who broke his ass to build/own the company. However, in your society we would not even have a fucking gas station because no one would sacrifice their time and energy to build somthing with no reward. I mean what the fuck do you do all day collect welfare and make videos.
Guys like Newton, Einstein, Bohr, Oppenheimer, and Tesla supported socialist or semi-socialist ideals and applications. Did they collect welfare checks? No one's looking for a handout here. All of us want to get back what we put in.
The ultimate nature of human beings is limitless freedom. This can be in a negative way: When they are capitalists, they want ot be socialists, then after that they want to experiment communism. They always want changes, and nothing changes.
a trivial fact about political ideologies is that they're all advanced with the assumption that they are good for people and increase happiness. This is true of even the most reactionary ideologies like bolshevism and fascism. My own preferences lay with anarcho-syndicalism for the same reasons. It is up to people to understand the effects of the different social relations created by the various political systems and decide for themselves which one is more conducive to happiness.
There are now billionairs in Russia,in China, Vietnam.
So Communism has failed. It only exists in theory. Countries that embrace communism have been so backward in all aspects of the progress of economics, civilization, advancements of mankind because they are so busy serving their totalitarian governments. How YouTube gets developed? By communist or capitalist?
"How YouTube gets developed? By communist or capitalist?"
YouTube, the internet and computers, like all commodities, are produced by waged workers who will receive only a fraction of the profits made by a particular commodity. What socialists/communists/anarchists want is for the means of production to be handed over to the workers, who will would run them along democratic lines, distributing the wealth fairly.
Russia actually achieved remarkable economic growth, though what happened with its government had nothing to do with these quotes; the same as "freedom and democracy" have nothing to do with the actions of leaders who constantly repeat these words (e.g. in the US). Youtube is part of the internet, which like most high technology was developed in the state system (pentagon)at the tax payers expense and later on handed over to corporations. What has failed is hierarchy. We need anarcho-syndicalism
Billionaires that you refer to are bloody 'oligarchs' who live at the expense of other men and women. Russia's birth rates have plummeted. Prostitution,gang warfare atc. is at an alltime high. Which planet do you live in? Fuck capitalism
most things get developed my the government (sadly) like the internet, pentegon did that, it was invented by students that devolped a system of networking and was turned into the internet, or the World Wide Web by pentegon (prob ur tax dollars if ur american). think about youtube, what if you had to pay to go on youtube... i wouldn't like that, that's the point of youtube that it is available to everyone, cause it CAN be. and capitalists dont make things, they invest (hold the means to produ..
not rele neither of them have true form... what marx was reffering to could be better described by writers like Foucault... what I mean is its a way of looking at the world. for example there are no aristocrats but aristocracy and the way to think like an aristocrat is still in our discourses, although the bourgeois of Marx's time has gone, same with proletariat, that type of thinking is still around.
or this over-production suffocates capitalist mode of production when everyone becomes a pitiful wage worker unable to appropriate the whole of these products, thats when people lose thier job cuz capitalist dont need em' to make more products no one can buy, hundreds of thousands of useful commodities like milk, tomatoes, etc.. are destroyed even though kids in 3rd world countries need em', cuz theirs too much quantity and value drops.
World capitalism pits worker against worker and nation against nation.Its long past its sell by date,lets dump this dog eat dog rat race into the trash bin of history.
@NuttyWithPower "The great enemy of clear language is insincerity." George Orwell. Something that Marx has in shit loads. Shouldn't you anarcho-communist be trying to get away from marxists? If he thought that the working class suffered he shoudn't have hired a maid, then inpregnated her and kicked her out. Maybe he should have lifted a finger before he started to wright about the suffering working class.
youre right my friend, property is power my friend, power to exploit the toiling masses through alienated labour creating shit we dont need, then through the media they sell these useless products back to us.
so little children with useless products starve cuz with the wages their folks get by making these useless products they cant get what they need to live, while capital keeps accumalating.
or this over-production suffocates capitalist mode of production when everyone becomes a pitiful wage worker unable to appropriate the whole of these products, thats when people lose thier job cuz capitalist dont need em' to make more products no one can buy, hundreds of thousands of useful commodities like milk, tomatoes, etc.. are destroyed cuz too much quantity makes value drop, even though kids in 3rd world countries suffer famines.
Hey, I know this quotes from a Erich Fromm video here on youtube, and this named quotes of Karl Marx are the center of Fromm's theory of "Having&Being". Very deep and enlightening ideas, pity that Karl Marx behaved sometimes very rudely in his life.
if an anarchist society were formed in america, i mean a real, large, anarchist society, there would be good medical care.
look at communist countries not. cuba has free medicine for everyone, even people from the outside. imagine if the workers in cuba had full controll over the means of production.
@perfectchronic China has state oriented and controlled capitalism, it has a market economy designed by the famous neo-liberal Milton Friedman, one can own private real estate (property) and private business.
The rural people are still poorest, which is a direct contradiction of Mao Zedhong Thought (Maoism).
It's few trappings of Communism hark to Soviet Orthodoxy (ironically). These are: a dictatorship of the Proletariat ( unashamedly made permanent and warped to a self-serving entity, cont.
youtube, medicine, etc. is a means of production, and we plan to get a hold of it and make it not only better, but available to everyone. most people in the world dont have computers or medicine. go to africa or india.
look at the american medical care system. its terrible.
Practical real world results trump impractical philosophizing. How long will it take for people who label themselves in terms of being Marxist or Socialist to wake up and extract their heads from Marx's cold dead ignorant ass?

You talk about poverty-slavery, I had $2000 went to China and turned it into $200,000. Why? I motivated myself to go out and kick ass. If you want something in life go and get it.

The only ethnic group that truely believes in communism are Jews... as it is there creation and anyone else who does not believe in meritocracy and freedom.
A hard working person should not support those who do less.
Advancement of Civilization has been based of a few things... and communism fosters none of them.
Capitalism is another form of communism they both breed nothing but wolves and are bound to fail. Meritocracy is the only way.

why should you get rewarded for winning the genetic or environmental lottery?
mr1001nights 3 years ago
Rewarded? A twist of words can not change the fact... those who work get those who don't don't. A Pay check is not a reward it is equitable trade for services rendered.
That is life? Are you saying humans should through out Natures laws and strive to make our form of human virus breed and live?
Envirmental lottery ? Far from it... Europeans have shaped and form every habitat from all parts of the world... a better choice was Genetic lottery. As European Gentics and Asiatic seem to be at

the top of the list when it comes to the lottery winners.
Why would the rest of the world pick up on Sub-Saharan African species inability to cope to scientific evolution and chose to use our hard earn labor to benefit these genetic/mental slackers? Reward them for what? not working? For not evolving?
Unfortunatly most Marist live in a dream world... Natures laws will always stand taller than mans. Might makes right. Only the fittest(not strognest) survive. Thats is reality.

Comunism sounds better when expressed on the internet (which was grown in a free-market) and on software developed in a near free-market.
The least regulated industry in the States is the internet and nearest to a free-market is seen in tech development. Which is why every year we get more advancement for less money.
The highest regulated markets are in health care and each year we get less for more money!

Internet, just like most technology, computers, airplanes, cd's, container ships etc was developed in the state system&handed over to private power when it was profitable. It's a sign of an indoctrinated person, when s/he identifies the ideas of an anarchist like me with bolshevism simply because of a few Marx quotes--slavingly serving his society's elites by believing the dictators who claim to adopt these ideas (while assuming that all of Marx's thoughts are invalid and lead to a dictatorship)

Okay -- My comment is more accurate and less personal.
I said "developed" not originate -- the state-system did not develop youtube tech, nor microsoft, nor google. Regardless - the tech market IS the least regulated -- any system that has low regulations with advance in tech there is a decrease in prices.
Not so in heavy regulated markets. This is fact.

Your ideologies promote zero advancement in the human race. For example... a guy that works at 7 eleven recieves the same amount of capital as the person who broke his ass to build/own the company. However, in your society we would not even have a fucking gas station because no one would sacrifice their time and energy to build somthing with no reward. I mean what the fuck do you do all day collect welfare and make videos.

Guys like Newton, Einstein, Bohr, Oppenheimer, and Tesla supported socialist or semi-socialist ideals and applications. Did they collect welfare checks? No one's looking for a handout here. All of us want to get back what we put in.

The ultimate nature of human beings is limitless freedom. This can be in a negative way: When they are capitalists, they want ot be socialists, then after that they want to experiment communism. They always want changes, and nothing changes.

Happiness is the ultimate reason for human beings to work and co-work for. What is the ultimate reason for being a communist?
nmqtabtp 3 years ago
a trivial fact about political ideologies is that they're all advanced with the assumption that they are good for people and increase happiness. This is true of even the most reactionary ideologies like bolshevism and fascism. My own preferences lay with anarcho-syndicalism for the same reasons. It is up to people to understand the effects of the different social relations created by the various political systems and decide for themselves which one is more conducive to happiness.

There are now billionairs in Russia,in China, Vietnam.
So Communism has failed. It only exists in theory. Countries that embrace communism have been so backward in all aspects of the progress of economics, civilization, advancements of mankind because they are so busy serving their totalitarian governments. How YouTube gets developed? By communist or capitalist?

"There are now billionairs in Russia,in China, Vietnam."
And billions of poor people.
"So Communism has failed."
Not at all. Communism has never been achieved (unless you count "primitive communism")
"Countries that embrace communism [sic] have been so backward in all aspects of the progress of economics, civilization, advancements of mankind"
Not true, btw. I'm not a supporter, but the USSR went from backwater to industrial superpower under so-called "communism".

"How YouTube gets developed? By communist or capitalist?"
YouTube, the internet and computers, like all commodities, are produced by waged workers who will receive only a fraction of the profits made by a particular commodity. What socialists/communists/anarchists want is for the means of production to be handed over to the workers, who will would run them along democratic lines, distributing the wealth fairly.

Russia actually achieved remarkable economic growth, though what happened with its government had nothing to do with these quotes; the same as "freedom and democracy" have nothing to do with the actions of leaders who constantly repeat these words (e.g. in the US). Youtube is part of the internet, which like most high technology was developed in the state system (pentagon)at the tax payers expense and later on handed over to corporations. What has failed is hierarchy. We need anarcho-syndicalism

not rele neither of them have true form... what marx was reffering to could be better described by writers like Foucault... what I mean is its a way of looking at the world. for example there are no aristocrats but aristocracy and the way to think like an aristocrat is still in our discourses, although the bourgeois of Marx's time has gone, same with proletariat, that type of thinking is still around.

or this over-production suffocates capitalist mode of production when everyone becomes a pitiful wage worker unable to appropriate the whole of these products, thats when people lose thier job cuz capitalist dont need em' to make more products no one can buy, hundreds of thousands of useful commodities like milk, tomatoes, etc.. are destroyed even though kids in 3rd world countries need em', cuz theirs too much quantity and value drops.

If he thought that the working class suffered he shoudn't have hired a maid, then inpregnated her and kicked her out. Maybe he should have lifted a finger before he started to wright about the suffering working class.

youre right my friend, property is power my friend, power to exploit the toiling masses through alienated labour creating shit we dont need, then through the media they sell these useless products back to us.
so little children with useless products starve cuz with the wages their folks get by making these useless products they cant get what they need to live, while capital keeps accumalating.
hey what were those books you quoted,
