Communism general

Hello Comrades. This general is for the discussion of Marxism-Leninism, the ideology of revolutionary socialism and communism.

Communism is the next stage of humanity following the capitalist stage.

What exactly is communism according to Marxist-Leninists:

>Communism is a stage of society in which the productive infrastructure is socially owned, and goods are produced not in order to sell for profit, but in order to meet a social need.

>Communism in it's full form is a stateless, classless society that follows the maxim "From each according to their ability, to each according to their need."

>To acheive such a society Marxism-Leninism teaches us that we must replace the capitalist state, which is controlled by the capitalist class, by a socialist state, which is controlled by the working class. Then, a period of class struggle follows in which the capitalist class is liquidated by the working class. When the capitalist class has been completely vanquished, there will be only one class, the working class, and eventually the functions of the state will become indistinguishable from the functions of the society as a whole, and the state as such will 'wither away' as Marx said.

ML uses a philosophy called dialectical materialism, see here:

It is reccomended that you read some of the critical works of Marxism-Leninism so you can make an informed assessment of the ideology.

Once automation takes most of the jobs capitalism and communism will be outdated ideologies, much like feudalism is today. Fascism will be the way forward in the future.

Commie bastard. Get out faggot.

...

FUCKING COMMIE FAG GET OFF MY BOARD REEEEEEE

...

Communists are disgusting. Read The Gulag Archipelago

...

...

fuck off faggot no one wants you here when will you wrap your head around that?

as a leftist leftmarx is not working we need new ideas. just saying.
We need to reform Marxism and socialism into the modern day.

Comrade nig nog reporting for dookie

Quads confirms

Why can't communists define communism?

...

...

because we all have different ideas of what it should be.
I personally like to use the literal definition of it.
Which would be commune like living.
Which obviously cant work in the modern day.

LMAO you are seriously messuring body count?

Ooh im just so glad all western countries body count sits at a solid: 0.
Crazy how a right wing idea never killed a single person ever in the history of the world or much less the last 17 years.

Off yourself, commie scum.

...

>obviously communes can't work
Not a leftist (natsoc) but why can't communes work? Bringing people together into work and family communities for the sake of completing work and raising a future generation to do the same work. Take the agricultural commune system and stretch it to other economic sectors of life.

It would almost be a speciation of humans across economic sectors though, interestingly enough.

I think that one just includes deaths as a direct result of communist inspired policies, as a result of famine.

>from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs

Do you need the technology you're using to be a retarded faggot right now?

>natsoc

Not socialist either

Fucking casual :^)

exactly

¿Por qué venís aquí a dar por culo?

maybe we could discuss issues individually as they arise instead of making new neologism-isms. Since there is still no public consensus on the meaning of the old neologism-isms, Marxism, socialism, capitalism, etc., and people debate them (without even agreeing on common meanings of words) about 100% more than they debate specific issues, it seems like the mere introduction of more neologism-isms would not have a strong positive benefit.

Communism had a couple of very good points.

1. Communism eliminated a lot of potential economic competitors back in the day. Basically, no communist nation produced any product for export that people in any western nation wanted to buy. (With the possible exception of AK-47s).

2. Communism provided a direct solution to overpopulation. It is estimated that communism killed more than 90 million people over about 70 years. The Khymer Rouge in Cambodia killed a significant fraction of their entire population in less than 10 years.

PS: Also a source of humor. If Saudi Arabia went communist, in ten years they would be importing oil, and in twenty years they would be importing sand.

Reminder: He did nothing wrong

reality check.... government is irrelevant, the bottom line is the degree to which 'family' is undermined by government determins it's relative 'goodness' and establishes a time frame for its collapse because all forms of government collapse eventually. and all forms of government are social networks determined to replicate the concept of family.

they all fail and fall under their weight and family always marches on.
