Drew Pavlou is an anti-china lib funded by australian far right billionaires, hes not gonna be nuked.

Does that mean that PA will finally stop being a fed and arrest restistance fighters on behalf of the zionist entity?

“left”

A rare W for political violence.

republicans love it when they’re hit on the dick with a baseball

Yemen is claiming to have hit Tel Aviv with a second drone strike.

Not to be that guy but the first one happened in the middle of the night and there’s like 10 videos of it so i’ll take that with a bit of salt until the second 10 videos show up.

hi to me.

It’s not Vance, it’s Thiel.

Maybe they weren’t a very good team.

He just explodes like a balloon if you sit on it

Look the best here i can do is to guide you to the relevant parts of Anarchy Works, it probably explains it a lot better than i have the capacity right now.

I live in a former east bloc state (hungary) and the only communist party we have left is explicitly against LGBTQ people and immigration. In the meantime unions are in shambles because all union activity was heavily vetted by the police so workers now don’t even care to try (of course 30 years of neoliberal pacification also contributed but there was basically zero resistance even in the 90’s because they were all gutted. So i am a bit sceptic about it, but again, i am happy to be proven wrong, i would be a supporter if such a humane system would rise and i watch with great admiration the latin american projects (and also defend for example Cuba against radlib losers who think it’s the most authoritarian state ever).

One thought morsel to your original question though: If we got closer to all those things through ways of anarchistic organizing, wouldn’t that be better too even if it ultimately fails to achieve all the goals?

See this is exactly the kind of senseless dick measuring contest all of these conversations devolve into that brings with itself the disgusting sectarian bullshit in the fucking anarchy community of the left unity website like the comment that replied to yours. No, the state isn’t “an obvious and historically proven vehicle for defending a revolution from internal counter revolutionaries and external imperialists.” The state failed many times to do that. The USSR is long gone. There’s ZERO states that has achieved communism.

He’s lost in the catacombs.

My man read his Evola well.

If we’re able to save the planetary ecosystem with cybernetic planning, end hunger, guarantee housing and work for those who’re able and a good life for those who aren’t as the “Leninists” demand; won’t we have left our children with far more fertile soil for an anarchist society than if we simply struggle directly for a classeless society today?

IF we are able, than i’ll be the first one to admit that. But if in the process we have to wiretap literally everyone and encourage snitching on our friends, i’ll reserve the right to be sceptical about whether this is the goal or not.

That’s a whole lot of assumption

The whole thread we started here is a whole lot of assumptions. Of course globally humanity will take generations to be ideologically realign. As it is with EVERY ideology.

If anarchism can only work if most of the people are anarchists it’s not a viable revolutionary ideology IMO.

Good thing i didn’t say that.

in the us its doing a piss poor job of it. In fact I’d say that a capital dominated state wants to do away with itself via privatization.

That’s not how i see it. From what i see capital still needs and will need in the future the state there to be an enforcer. IMO the ultimate dead end of right wing libertarian theory is this, even when the market’s hand is the least tied by the state there will be a need for a force to beat down slave riots. And that’s what the state’s ultimate power lies in and i don’t see it privatized in the future.

So Engels is half right about that, but i’d rather say that negotiating class conflict with violence is one way the state can be used and it doesn’t negate that it reproduces it’s power itself. The state pulling the rug from under landlords is a good step but in this context imo it’s not necessarily withering it just oversees the conflict in a different (better) way - would a tenant yeeting their landlord be arrested? Would landlords have their properties violently seized? These are all good things imo but they don’t contribute to the withering of the state, only give it another role. And under communist parties - at least until they get to the point where capitalist forces aren’t a threat - it’s necessary to have the state as an official enforcer.

A not global anarchist revolution would have to grapple with the same problems as a communist one and having a state apparatus at hand is not a guarantee of the revolution being protected.
