Bad feels

What do you guys do to rekindle hope in the left?

Do I just let it die?

I'm losing hope that us commies will ever be able to change the world we live in.

Are we really doomed to live in the shadows of liberals? We're forced to sit by and watch as our rhetoric is stolen by the right. At this point, even the word 'socialism' is twisted into shitty capitalism.

Feels awful man.

Left has to change and evolve. It needs to learn from past mistakes and the ideas that dont work have to be abandoned and those that work in practice should be kept. IMO markets are needed until cybercommunism can become reality.

Are you fucking kidding dude? I thought the fear of stagnation died in 2016. The world is moving, just like it has always been. The world will still be capitalist by 2100 but the reactionaries in power now will all be dead within a matter of years. Tens of millions will perish this century, as is the norm, but humanity will chug along so long as we don't get hit by an asteroid or gamma rays.

Some countries might even have communist parties in power by the 2030's. So quit being a whiny bitch and go post your wojack shit somewhere else.

It's more accurate to say markets are needed until the whole globe becomes communist. Only then can we construct a co-operate economy together to replace competition.

But in reality Titoists will never give up their precious market economies in reality so people like you will just have to be isolated, ridiculed, and expelled from every organization before you can cause further damage.

Revisionist. All real leftists know that the only way forward is to wait for Karl Marx to reemerge from his tomb so he can rapture his flock and establish The New Earth.

You are just being pessimistic, class consciousness is growing in the west, that's why figures like Corbyn and Sanders are so popular. Cheer up. Can it even get much worse, anyway?

Thats absolutely not true. Its a necessary evil to be able to compete with capitalist ecomies on ecomic growth. All economic growth is based ultimately on creative destruction of technology and markets handle this extremely well.

why not just steal technology created by capitalist countries lile China does? Why do you have to directly participate in market economies?

maybe ableism is a better subject to bring up instead…

CPC hands are tied in the fight over hegemony against USA. Every action they do is to fight against them.

Like i said markets are a nasty business but they create economic growth that planned economy cant achieve until these cockshott utopians make their cybercommunism real.

OP is just having a bad day mental break down.

You do know the China, and Soviet Union, along with various Anarchist territories, have had a historic lead in calorie in take, and general well being, right?

You can cherry pick some statistics but leftist should be honest about the problems of socialism and fix them.

Real Talk.

More and more Communists are forming. Iraq has a Communist partnership, Trump is deporting people to Vietnam and Nicaragua and said that USSR did nothing wrong in Afghanistan, you have Right-Wingers defending Maduro because they don't want war, ANTIFA is winning, Rush Limbaugh is more Left-Wing than Noam Chomsky when it comes to Imperialism, people are sick of Benzos, France the most Right-Wing nation in Europe is having Leftist riots, Tucker Carlson is asking why aren't people going after Benzos other than Sanders, Kurdish Communists are being backed by PMCs and Assad is winning.

Shit is fucking great.

fuck you buddy I did not ask for these feelings

If you have people without food or healthcare shit is always real. Only in USA people are so brainwashed they have no problem with it. But rest of 1st world has universal healthcare and social security.

Life during the Soviet golden age was far superior to the American/European insanity at that time. You had a more effective transport system, a more effective system of providing food, safer streets, and even a military that only was really inferior when it came to nukes.
Anarchist territories have also been incredibly effective when it comes to defending land, and providing food, and transport, even in the 3rd world.

nice

People have been desperate to ditch capitalism for a long time now, there just isn't a real alternative.
Until we start working together on one, instead of expecting it to be handed to us from up on high that won't change.
In the mean time the right is demolishing liberal democracy, and beginning the construction of global fascism, and people won't realise till it's too late.

Mike Cernovich says Socialism is coming.

Third worldism is just another excuse to do nothing. Class-consciousness doesn't come automatically, it is our job to bring it to the working class.

Something that can't actually exist since they will turn and cannibalize each other
Keep in mind that those "rightwingers" are nothing but Amerikan shills, they don't care about their fellow countrymen or culture, they only want to become a smaller version of the US.

I'd rather have global fascism than liberalism

When The Mob was big did they feud? Sure. But they also ran a lot of shit, and fucked over a lot of people.

Since you're Amerikan let me put it like this
There would be constant war across the globe between neighboring countries if shit like "global fascism" could even become a thing.
You can not compare organized crime which works under the blessing of their local governments and whole countries.
Perhaps global fascism could actually "become a thing" if for example the US would just do a military take-over across the world and snuff out any sort of national liberation spirit in those countries.
But otherwise such shit would be impossible, fascism is just capitalism in crisis

There are very few countries where capitalism isn't in crisis right now. Germany is in recession, China has a huge debt problem and their growth stats are fake.

Not all societies and nations will be at the forefront of progress. I assure you, that America will cling to Capitalism till all lights go out

Aside from that, The Left position is the strongest currently. Neoliberal Capitalism is completely bankrupted. Socialism is the only global and somewhat viable alternative.

"Socialism or Barbarism" dichotomy is obvious to all, even if some would prefer the latter, or, much more common approach of "Fuck you, got Mine"

Literally every "good" thing you named is right wingers coopting things that were traditionally socialist things. That's not great at all, it's what every EU populist is doing right now

I lost all hope long ago. Lifestylist anarchism is where its at now, its the closest to communism we will have before humanity dies off due to fucking up climate

I just reverted to Islam instead tbh. I'll still participate in activism if I can find orgs that aren't gonna just waste my time, but class consciousness still isn't that great in Amerika. Watching news reports about the yellow vests just makes me sad.

Is reformed Islam coming any time soon?

maybe after climate change renders the hejaz uninhabitable

Can anyone explain what the heck is up with this weird fixation on spelling America as "Amerika"? It just comes across as cringe tbh, a deliberate misspelling to prove "Wow I'm edgy"

Amerikkka.

That's what I feared, and it comes across as stupid cultural posturing.

Especially given the sins in every nation's past: the European Empires, the reactionary empires of Asia, all in all this painting of America as the "great satan" extending to even deliberately misspelling the country's name doesn't advance Marxism and only comes across as childish.

Wew never been this loser even when i was unemployed. Its porky or worker.

Work for the proles and impoverished to clearly show who's side your on, be openly communist, espouse communist thought clearly and passionately, await the day when people will have no choice but to choose sides.

The day is coming. People primarily need to be aware of the principles of communism.

This is just bullshit your day will never come because you live in a fantasy land. We need real action to help the working people.

There is no excuse for pessimism. Either nut up or fuck off out of here. There is no telling exactly where this world is heading, except that it's nowhere nice. It's too late for that. But to fall to our knees and give up on humanity when what we need most, at this very moment, is mass revolution and the establishment of a society that gives a fuck about the lowliest man and the health of the god damned planet, is no better than renouncing socialism altogether. If all you plan on doing is crying then you're no better than a fascist pig or his bourgeois master.

This shit needs to be kicked into high gear, and no one person is going to get it done alone. Anyone who calls himself a communist has a responsibility to educate themselves as well as others.

I don't think I'm contradicting that.

You're life will improve

Socialism to save the future of humanity WHEN? If anything, radical socialism is inevitable with the absolute state of this planet.

Are you dense? It's not just slightly unhealthier air and uncomfortably warm temperatures. It's not even the raising of the sea level. Land around the equator is set to become significantly more inhabitable, and those people aren't going to just sit down and burn up, they'll migrate to more survivable climes, hundreds of millions moving to a land that can maybe support them. The people of those lands are not going to take said migration easily, so there's also significant conflict right there, something that often turns into racial conflict. The arable land is going to change, so previous farmland will have dried up, like California is at this moment. Starvation and disease is not far off, and with that strain so too increases the likelihood of war, as fundamental resources are now more scarce. The ocean also takes the brunt of the temperature change, so an absolutely horrific amount of marine life will die, being taken over by algae, and turn acidic. That has huge ramifications.
If you actually have legitimate evidence against this, I'm all ears, because this is heavy shit that's kept me up at night.

Propaganda of the deed

liberal democracy isn't liberalism you stupid fuck

If you're a burger pretty much, class consciousness is so low that even if the entirety of europe became communist you'd still be against it. I recommend moving somewhere where socialism is a real possibility. Or just wait for the inevitable nuclear war/global warming like a posadist and then hope we can take the rains.

or they will become fed up with socdems, who try advance vaguely left-wing policy within the constraints of the market, (which is sustained by imperialism) and just become nazis.

why give a fuck about any of that crap when you could focus on making cyborgs, furries, robots, immortality and advanced medicine and technology. fuck politics.

I don't blame him, I know this feeling

Even if fascism comes about in some nations, it's bound to lose eventually, as it's only a temporary problem solver for the rich.
You have no reason to be pessimistic, and we should all keep pushing forward.

The technology for cybercommunism is already there (cockshott demostrated efficient planned calculation with a rasperri pi ffs) , the problem now is to educate on it, making a big enough movement and put it in practice

thanks famalam

That's what private property is comrade

I had lost hope in everything until I discovered real Marxism.
I thought that there was no other way humanity could go except "Ebil gommunism" and "Ebil Capitalism"
How wrong I was.
The fact that only 200~ after capitalism becomes a world power a socialist nation with enough power to scare the global capitalist order pops up.
No. We must oppose capitalism or everything dies. Even if we fail despite our best efforts, we can die saying, "We told you so."
The USSR was split apart only 30 years ago and already the specter of communism haunts the globe.
So long as we exist, so long as we hold the key to unlocking the full power of labour united, porky will shake in his boots.
AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT? WALLOWING IN SADNESS?

The future of humanity lies in the hands of the working class. We have a world to win.

Quit being an idealist, user. It doesn't matter if we are hated in america. The same fundamental material conditions that where emerging in Marx's time are still kicking around today. As long as this is the case, communism will be the only political theory that really matters.

Consensus is pretty much universal at this point that capitalism is pretty bad, the problem is leftists never are able to articulate a coherent alternative.

Best you can do right now is organize collective action at the local level, stuff like tenant's associations, mutual aid, etc

People like the Current Affairs guy at least try to put forward tangible ideas but they're typically shut down as socdems or libs by a lot of the left-twitter/leftbook types

This tbh, Think of it like a version of propaganda of the deed (but without the random assassination thing). Like if you want to build socialism as a cohesive force, you've gotta win things for the people in the name of socialism. It's the only way to really go forward.

Caring about people's politics more than their class or real actions is basically idpol. How you "identify" politically is even less material than your race or gender. Look at all the retarded snowflake political ideologies if you don't believe me.
