the socialist forefront of the proletarian must not spend its time to aquire weapons, they would be to few and inferior to the state forces, therefore the vanguard has to aquire a superior politic, program and method of analysing and comprehend the class struggle. a state cannot be erected upon bayonets. mao was wrong, political power comes not from gun, an armed struggle is no guarentee for success, proven lately by the nationalist, bourgeois oriented LTTE and its defeat.

I am reading this book at the moment, so far it is the best written text I have come across in my entire life.

Can you explain how capitalism can work to give equality to all? Try that one! Because it's all bullshit, capitalism is about, among many other things, inegalitarianism and unequal wealth distribution in populations

Very nice video!!

"The State and the Revolution" is one of Lenin's best, and most importaint works. Everybody should read it at least once. Almost every word Lenin wrote many years ago in his works are truer than ever today.

F.I.S.T. is one of several importaint progressive organizations fighting on the frontlines for the working class. They deserve working class support!

And F.I.S.T. did a great job in putting this video together!

@freedomwins1212 You haven't the slightest clue what your talking about. Without using a quick reference, could you give the synopsis of Exploitation? Define the Falling Rate of Profit Tendency? Discuss the Law of Value in an intellectual fasion? My best guess (judging by your idiodic remarks) is that you can't, and so I want you to read the Communist Manifesto, All three Volumes of Das Kapital, the State and Revolution, read them twice, then we can begin a real debate you nationalist shit.

@freedomwins1212 Capitalism doesn't work for 80% of the worlds population. They live in poverty. Besides the fact that you call communism genocidal is showing me your sources aren't very varied and never direct.

@freedomwins1212

Your confusing communists with the "Founding Fathers" of the United States, a nation created out of genocide, slavery, and absolute class domination

[freedomwins1212]

Communists are fucking Genocidal mass murders. Do yourself a favor and short the stock! Capitalism on its worst day is a million times better than slaving under these numb nuts. These guys couldn't get laid in a free whore house (except for Mao of course).

I appreciate paying tribute to one of Lenins most pragmatic, good for all time classics. I think, a caption explaining how the state originated with class divided society would have shed more light on the history of the State. I thought what looked like the Rodney King Beating, was a strong point in the video. But since I have not posted any video, regarding State and Revolution, I am glad someone did. I was a bit confused, with the logos from Walmart and Shell. But l then reaiized the intent.
