Communist

I’m an anarchocommunist, all states are evil.

Your local herpetology guy.

Feel free to AMA about picking a pet/reptiles in general, I have a lot of recommendations for that!

  • They are incompatible with end stages of communism, but not socialism, and even then, I don’t think they’re saying they’ve already built socialism or communism, I think they’re saying that they are building it.

    i don’t think they will ultimately decide to start transitioning to either, because that would require a lot of people in power relinquishing it, but I think it’s better to try and actually understand both sides rather than argue against strawmen.

    also, the argument of socialism is that the workers should own the means of production not that there should be some arbitrary wealth cap. Marx never said anything about a wealth cap, though many socialists would want one it isn’t fundamental to socialism, there’s even types of socialist called market socialists, ultimately the only characteristic that unifies socialists is worker control over the means of production.



  • I don’t get even the fundamentals of this propagandist argument, I want to be clear, I believe north korea is an authoritarian hellscape.

    why is it impossible for two people with radically different takes to have radically different results? Why would you assume all communists are bad because some are? Is it not possible that there are specific issues that we can point to here, reason about it, and solve? Should people not try to better society and be ridiculed for ideas of how?

    Why can’t I create a better version of communism, exactly? Is your argument that it’s fundamentally flawed? If so, why do this roundabout argument where we’re forced to beg the question of how?

    i think this displays the weakness of capitalist propaganda at it’s finest, you are essentially bringing no good ideas to the table and saying nobody should try because somebody else had a bad one, except it’s worse than that because it’s very easy to trace the issues with north korea and none of the problems have to do with communism even in the slightest, there have been countless authoritarian hellscapes that didn’t masquerade as communist.

    how does workplace democracy lead to authoritarian hellscapes, exactly? That is the core idea of socialism.

    Or do this and never deal with this again

     exec-once = while ! hyprlock -c ~/.config/hypr/hyprlock/hyprlock-startup.conf > /dev/null; do sleep 0.01 > /dev/null; done > /dev/null 
    
     exec-once = swayidle timeout 600 'pidof hyprlock || ( hyprlock -c ~/.config/hypr/hyprlock/hyprlock-screenshot.conf --grace 59 > /dev/null || while ! hyprlock -c ~/.config/hypr/hyprlock/hyprlock-startup.conf > /dev/null; do sleep 0.01 > /dev/null; done > /dev/null )'
