    do you have a pic of that cursed anarchist libertarian guy's account on twitter's pfp, i was post it in response but i lost it

    Dude seriously? It's so grossly ageist to imply that his centrist dad won't be able to understand Marxian economic theory, this is part of the neo-infantalization of workers that's been a trend among the pan-authortarian left lately, it's so dangerous.

    In addition it goes right along with this notion of capital being "dead labor" and the fetishization of workers is exactly what lead to the totalitarisnism in Stalinist governments relegating workers to nothing more than "alive capital" which lead directly to the pan-statist red-brown alliance which culminated into the alliance between Max Blumenthal and Tucker Carlson today. This is a real problem, man.

    Every time I hear of Castro, it makes me wonder about the efficacy of the anti-“great man” argument

    Every time I hear of Castro, it makes me wonder about the efficacy of the anti-“great man” argument

    Fr

    But like great man isn't about great leaders not having a big impact tho, more so about the primacy of the masses, and Cuba def had a mass movement even outside of Fidel

    And i would also argue that the succes of cuba and it being able to survive against all odds is because of the political system they've constructed and exactly because political power isn't as centralized and didn't depend on a great leader

    But his charisma and personality is so big that it sometimes feels that way tho fr lmao

    Id argue against Lenin if Lenin wasn't born Russia he wouldn't have had been as revolutionary, Russia at the time was home to greatest contradictions at the time, Russia at the time was the weakest imperialist power, and the most backwards at the time, but only at Russia you had the the feudal contradictions in the peasant side, you had colonial contradictions as well, and proletarian contradictions, the largest factory at the time was in Russia, and huge contradictions between the capitalist mode of production in the cities, and the feudal countryside. Plus you even had contradictions between the ruling classes themselves. Also the Russian communist were faced with insane amount of Tsarist repression that forced them to be revolutionary while other parties could hide behind Parliamentarism. Other parts of Europes had strikes and revolution at the time but only Russia had the perfect combinations of contradictions to be able to be broken it was the weakest link at the time, if Lenin was born anywhere else he'd still be a great thinker but more of Gramsci than being known as Lenin for example

    But then again probably not a serious post
