When you were watching videos on your phone and dozing off, so you put down the phone and all of a sudden you’re wide awake

That moment when you choose not to rebut that dumb argument

Have fun with that then

Americans are such pussies 😂

Lazy activism

Freikorps were irregular German and other European paramilitary volunteer units that existed from the 18th to the early 20th centuries. They effectively served as mercenaries or private military companies, regardless of their own nationality.

In the aftermath of World War I and during the German Revolution of 1918–19, Freikorps, consisting partially of World War I veterans, were raised as paramilitary militias. They were ostensibly mustered to fight on behalf of the government against the German communists attempting to overthrow the Weimar Republic. However, many Freikorps also largely despised the Republic and were involved in assassinations of its supporters, later aiding the Nazis in their rise to power.

The fable is wild work

This isn’t entirely accurate. What you described is a ‘socialist’ community, the so-called ‘lower stage of communism’. In this stage, there would still remain incentive based structures for labour. It employs a policy of “from each according to his ability to each according to his works”. Inequality still exists as explained by Marx here:

This equal right is still constantly stigmatized by a bourgeois limitation… one worker is married, another is not; one has more children than another… Thus, with an equal performance of labor, and hence an equal share in the social consumption fund, one will in fact receive more than another. — Critique of the Gotha Programme

It is during this lower stage that the transformation of social relations and productive forces gradually alters the motivations for labor to a more virtue-based one.

The problem most communism skeptic people have with communism is that they reason within the current modes of subsistence and assume it is impossible.

“What we have to deal with here is a communist society, not as it has developed on its own foundations, but, on the contrary, just as it emerges from capitalist society; which is thus in every respect, economically, morally, and intellectually, still stamped with the birthmarks of the old society from whose womb it emerges.” — Critique of the Gotha Programme

Marx also stated that he expected us to remain in the lower stage of communism for centuries, but it is during this stage that we prepare the productive forces to sustain communism and start producing goods for their use-value rather than for their exchange value, so that we can achieve the higher stage of communism which employs 'from each according to their ability to each according to his needs. This higher stage is truly classless because we would supposedly have solved scarcity, it would be stateless because people would organize communally to meet their needs, and it would be moneyless because the means of production and means of subsistence would be free for all to access.

In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor… has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life’s prime want… only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be fully left behind and society inscribe on its banners: ‘From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!’ — Critique of the Gotha Programme

Short answer: We don’t know

Longer answer: We hope technology will be fully developed by then to do that stuff for us

Americans aren’t interested in effecting change. Any half decent country would’ve had a revolt by now

So BBC, while on the cusp of censorship for “defamation of Trump”, still sees it necessary to watch his arse?

These bootlickers man

I’ll be sure to check it out

So are you😃

I’d say the 1st and 3rd are blehh, and the second is okay

Exactly, it insists upon itself

Paris, Texas was fantastic!

Interesting take
