Larping revolutionaries don't understand that all Marxist attempts in history have either failed, collapsed, or reformed to adopt capitalism in some way. At what point can we face reality and face the facts and just admit that Marxism is a failed ideology? There's more to this world than a shitty ideology made by a German guy during the industrial revolution for his era. We live in different times, we require something different.
I'm no fan of Marx, but, is your critique of Marx that he's German and from the industrial revolution era?
An ambiguous offer of "something different" sounds like the same vapid hopium lies the purple party stay in power by.
Stay strong, that McCarthyanism will produce something good eventually. /s
I'll prefer the range between anarcho-communism(-10,-10), individualist anarcho-socialism(0,-10), and social democracy(-5,-5(ish)), than to get terrorised into the right, believing it's the path to freedom, while power continues to mechanistically consolodate by the rich making themselves richer, using their money as power, while we're told "keep believing we're free, and fear the communists seeking to take away all your freedom", while the fatcats take away all our freedom. Big brother or big baron? Neither, thanks. Nor big bully, big bank, big blight nor big bot. No matter how much they try preen themselves magnanimous by whatabout big other. It's all big bad. Freedom first. So lets stop falling for it, and take our hands off from around each others necks.
