anticapitalist views of society in general are eldritch brain horrors that peel back the veil of reality and reveal the utter putrescence of capitalist society in such a way that its horrors are forever unseeable and, for some, almost unbearable, as every single moment which passes bears witness to uncountable instances of preventable suffering through not just exploitation but incredibly callous disregard for the value of human lives, and for communists it's that x10
I think it is just a mashup of common western communist sentiments.
If you like this kind of thing, Marx on Capital as a Real God is entertaining.
This is basically me. I'm pretty quiet when socialising because I know if I start talking I'll very soon start trying to set the world to rights.
Food and beer are probably the only safe topics for me.
Food is not even a safe topic for me since I am vegan. There are no safe topics for me 😂
If I drink hard liquor, the non stop beating of the electoral reform drum is replaced with me raging about the bipartisan war on drugs/police state.
I still drink hard liquor now and then, just in my basement alone. Unfortunately I still can post here about it: https://lemmy.ml/post/19710976/13341382
The car full of hammer and sickles in the background though 😂😂 that's metaphorical gold
Fun Fact: Communism is actually an attainable goal within our lifetimes, but people would actually have to be open to confronting their biases against it (including hate for all its supporters)
Actually disagree, at least not higher-stage Communism. Higher stage communism requires pretty much all living generations on Earth to have never known Capitalism, and be so used to living within Socialism that the statist apparatus makes itself redundant and whithers away. This becomes self-perpetuating and stable.
Lower stage communism? Absolutely.
It isn't simply a matter of "confronting internal biases," just like you would not place a random modern worker into feudalism and expect them to be capable of tending the fields, producing for subsistence plus surplus to their local feudal lord, and producing all manner of household goods such as clothing, fences, and food, so too can you not thrust the modern proletariat into a higher stage of production without working through the transitional status of Socialism.
I want to live in the commune with nuclear arms. To many shitters in the world as it is.
Communism is not attainable in our lifetimes as it will require decades upon decades of economic and social development. But we can take the first steps by seizing control of the state from capital and oppressing the actions of capitalists themselves. In other words, by creating socialist (or proto-socialist) states.
As a commi, I can't stand this kind of people... Like, is important and (sometimes even fun) to talk about this, but there is a lot more to life...
I agree, telling people they are quiet is silly. The first guy also should've been talking about communism from the beginning.
