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 achieve 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. marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1847/11/prin-com.htm marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/
Hello gomrades! XDDDD Dis general is for disgussion of margsism-lebonnism, da ideology of revolutionary socialism and gommunism.
Gommunism is da next stage of guckery following real society.
Wat exagtly is gommunism according to gommies:
>Gommunism is a stage of guckery in which the produgtive infrustrugture runs away from gommie country, and no goods are produced and beeple starve. XDDDD >Gommunism in full form is obressive, statist society dat follows maxim "gib gib gib!" :DDDD >To achieve gommunism we must replace broduction with murderous obressive rulers liek me, fug working glass beeple. XDDDD Struggle while I liquidate you all lol. When capitalists run away we win and I kill you all. Eventually the functions of state cease and state becomes murderous and indistinguishable from other gommies. Da state withers away liek da people. gommies.gom/fug/ gommies.gom/starve/
>Sdage one Bourgers aren't allowed to vode :DDD but otherwise da system is digtadorshib of gommies. Everything is stole by digtadors and digtadors rule all.

Who needs Jelly Beans or Doritos?

Genuine question.
Are communists ok with someone controlling what happens to their society? Cause when you're doing things for social needs - someone must dictate what is the need and why.
In order for communism to work, everyone needs to think the same. DO you really believe everyone will think the same? The larger the scale of society you are controlling the more issues you will have with communism.
Thanks

A communist economic system would be characterized by advanced productive technology that enables material abundance, which in turn would enable the free distribution of most or all economic output and the holding of the means of producing this output in common. In this respect communism is differentiated from socialism, which, out of economic necessity, restricts access to articles of consumption and services based on one's contribution.

How do you get to an advanced productive technology if you aren't giving a person an incentive to do so. Are you relying on their good faith?
You still haven't answered the necessity part. Can you define what an economic necessity is.

And who would maintain the automation? I work in factory with tons of automation. Shit needs lots of maintenance. Automation/facility/utility/instrumentation engineers, mechanics, people to assist where robots can't go/do things. Who would do this? The starving uneducated man with a gun to his head? In before labor vouchers! (aka money)

It is not necessary for everyone to think exactly the same, not is it able to be achieved. It is simply a matter of considering what people's needs are, and how it varies between differing demographics. This can be done in many different ways. ML ideology considers solving this by having a party system that manages this stuff, but other ideologies solve it through local democratic municipals or similar systems. The only person that dictates what you need is yourself really, and ideally, your needs are properly represented higher up.
Incarceration rate per capita is higher in the US rn.
There were two (2) famines after 1917, all caused by forces that could not be controlled. In the end, the agricultural reforms meant the end of them. It was much, much worse under the tsar.
Nice that you've read him. Consider the manifesto in its historical context if you wish to understand it.
North Koreans generally say communism is an outdated philosophy that failed. The prevailing ideology is often called "Juche", where a small elite hold full control over the means of production. Not unlike nowadays.
Justin Kelly
Done. Considering doing the same. History repeats. Your special dreamland version of communism with you at the top will never happen. You are delusional, and are probably unironically retarded. Please get help.
OP Sniffed too much glue in the class and started reading about politics. Every kid falls for the failed and rejected idea these days.

I do not want me at the top. I want to be able to manage my surroundings, as I know those best. Under a boss, I wouldn't be able to do this. Under a leader, maybe. Consider what the picture would look like for the USA. Authoritarian state that invades every country that doesn't support capitalism (if it has oil and can't fight back too hard), has secret police, black sites where many are tortured, murders millions of civilians in wars in other nations, sucks banker dick and aren't nazis either. The USSR is not the only example of an ideologically communist nation. Consider the case of Burkina Faso, which, under Thomas Sankara was able to become agriculturally self-sufficient and free itself from colonial rulers within a few years. Not unlike how the USA was able to free itself from British colonial rule. Or consider Rojava currently, a Kurdish state that has a confederalist democratic system right now and a coop economy, which is definitely proper socialism in some respects, although they are still bound to the capitalist system that surrounds them. I guess you have to do something like that to not get embargoed by the US like Cuba was. I just hope they won't get pwnd by Turkroaches and ISIS sandniggers. The embargo on Cuba was also interesting, they now have the highest standard of living in the world without consuming more than they produce, like in Yurop. That's pretty fucking good for something that was a third-world-tier nation in South America and was eventually kept from getting oil. Consider that none of these things could've been done if you hold on to bullshit like the right to own property without using it yourself.

Jordan Sullivan
Lumpenproletariat is a term that was originally coined by Karl Marx to describe the layer of the working class that is unlikely ever to achieve class consciousness and is therefore lost to socially useful production, of no use to the revolutionary struggle, and perhaps even an impediment to the realization of a classless society.

Not an argument, get your shitty jpg impact-font 9gag-tier memes outta here. I thought you people had higher standards.
It's a joke u dip. Nice trips btw.
Fucking read faggot. From the set of countries that do not consume more than they produce, Cuba has the highest standard of living. I'm thinking about moving to Rojava to help out there, but I'm shit at languages and it'd be better if I made myself useful in my home country.
Two famines. Last one around ~1932. A huge improvement over tsarist Russia. Come back with a proper argument next time instead of cold-war-era memes.

Venezuala just has edgy social democracy. Subsidizing everything is retarded. Consider looking at the other examples I've shown in other posts, or try to refute any of my points. So far you've just pooped on the chess board and now start to prance around like a retarded pigeon.
Luke Bell
>>in some respects no. there is 0 crossover between private property and a socialist system >still bound to the capitalist system >muh global revolution Not an argument. If they wanted socialism, they could implement it; the surrounding "capitalist system" be damned. see Kibbutz: the only successful application of communism, even if they privatized after automation

To all commies in this thread, have you ever lived under communism? I guess no, but I did, 24 years in USSR, and I find being goy in kikeland much more pleasant than that.

Communism is an obsolete ideology that has failed time and time again throughout history, causing misery and death to countless millions.
Anyone who subscribes to the Communist creed is a LARPer at this stage in history. How many more times will Communism be tried and failed before people realise that it is a fantasy that cannot ever work in human reality? How many innocents have to die from starvation, imprisonment or execuion before we finally accept that Communism is national suicide?

Jeremiah Bailey
>literally Israeli communes They still have to compete within a capitalist economy, that counts for almost everything that many call socialist. You would have to start a sort of micro-economy otherwise, but this is simply impractical and inefficient, because economies of scale help this out. Consider how the Kibbutzes became shite: because it got coopted by capitalist forces. It's something that tends to happen to many others. That, or the leader is killed in a CIA-funded coup.
Have you seen the differences in standard of living that only happened after the Tsar was gone? Your Russia would be on the level of African nations if Lenin didn't bring you people socialism. He's the one that brought you industrialization, he's the one that brought you to a point where you could compete with the rest of the world. And look now, it's a fucking shithole now that the government took its hands off production and sold all its industry to the globalist elites. Russia is still an economic powerhouse, but the things it produces are not for its people anymore, not things that people can use anymore, but things that are made to be sold overseas to car companies that make overpriced shit that breaks down as soon as the warranty expires, to be sold to rich fucks that apparently worked so hard for their fifteen Lamborghini cars that they deserve another one that will just gather dust in their garage if they didn't have slave- I mean workers to dust them off for him. What productive labor is that?
Not an argument.

Christopher Bennett
Hi gomrade, did you start reading about basic economics? Or the history of gommunism in Europe and Asia?
Automation is directly tied to privatization or totalitarianism shifting to a capital intensive economy requires all theory to be thrown out the window because it's based on the LTV. communism gets "corrupted" simply by existing within the modern economy. It will only work in agrarian communes
