/uog/ - Unpopular opinions general
while this might be true I wouldn't say austerity would make a country not succdem.
they absolute are a problem capitalism is THE problem but between the two capitalist parties int he US the liberal are more harmful to leftism than conservatives
While I do agree this gets into the "no true scotsman" territory
While first and foremost the problem these nations have is imperialism, transporting the people to the west is not a solution in fact it makes the situation worse.
The people coming in are either good the for country or bad.
If they are good then it is just a continuation of imperialism robbing the third world of their best and brightest. If they are bad their behavior will directly impact the working class here.
the last thing that will solve this problem is to move huge amounts of their citizen far away.
while this might be initially bad it would help the nation build up until they are capable of socialism
From the looks of things immigration contributes the workers not having economic power.
yes leftists tend to shout fascist(or pol on leftypol) at anything they don't like
Maybe in socialism, but in global communism it really doesn't matter. Mass immigration occurs almost entirely for economic reason. If everyone has everything they need in the area they live in, there isn't a very big reason to immigrate en mass.
IQ levels generally rise as conditions are improved because of the "softening"/elimination of poverty/intelligence traps (i.e. Malnourished uneducated children who didn't receive proper nutrition and are exposed to materials which may negatively alter or affect their growth or genetics grow up and have children who then also lack nutrition and education on top of their now inherited gene mutations. Then repeat.)
One such example of environmental mutations mutations that occur from smoking/being in a smoking environment sciencedaily.com
It is when barely any of the markers of Social Democracy remain. I'm not talking about "Austerity" here, I'm talking about the entire Neoliberal project from the 70s until now.
Democrats aren't "progressive" liberalism, they're at the absolute best, Social Liberalism. Progressives as an entity don't find representation in either of the two Bourgeois parties.
I mean we're posting on an imageboard, not having a debate, I'm not defending radlibs, I'm saying that this being the dominant position that people associate with Communists is a massive problem.
Idk what all that idealism is about them being "good" vs "bad" but yes Imperialism is the primary contradiction.
Yes, that's the point, not sure what you're arguing against here
Please learn what Imperialism is, because it seems as if you don't understand what I'm saying. It's precisely the opposite, poorer nations are being starved of both Capital & Labour Power.
No Capitalism, and one of it's mechanisms, Imperialism is what contributes to the workers not having economic power. You're putting the cart before the horse.
They really don't
All in all fam, I think you have an unwillingness to engage with actual Marxist concepts if they don't fit your preconceived notions that are presumably inherited from your Nationalist beliefs. Perhaps, when people repeatedly say Zig Forums in response to your posts, then it's not all the "leftists" being triggered, but actually, it's saying something about your posts. Self-Reflection was something that was a very long period for me when I moved away from being a reactionary.
Adults are the real idealists, not children. Children are born curious and naive about life, but they don't have convictions nor ambitions to "change the world." Thats what jaded old men do. It's adults who make up fantastical poems on new schools of thought that end up hurting contemporaries and posterity, attacking the youth for hesitating or objecting to blindly follow. Yet, it's considered disrespectful or absurd to correct grown men as you would a child.
