I have not read this post and uh…

Protracted People’s War until Communism!!!

Once again not caring or engaging is paying off dividends lmao

And now I’m seeing a bunch of videos of them getting absolutely whooped by the locals. Football hooligans sometimes do good things!

Next time I won’t miss

Chatgeepeetee please solve the halting problem for me.

Its a book-length series of articles but it certainly covers that subject here: https://kites-journal.org/2023/03/13/introduction/

Theres an appendix at the end too for further references.

First in the US Small Press Distributor went under (https://lithub.com/the-small-press-world-is-about-to-fall-apart-on-the-collapse-of-small-press-distribution)

And now in the UK United Independent Publishers is dead too. (https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/international/international-book-news/article/95541-marston-on-the-brink-of-administration-ipg-says.html)

Grim outlook for small presses of any kind. Not looking forward to an entirely monopolized publishing industry.

In terms of proper theory/practice I have some bad news and perhaps a suggestion for you. Unfortunately both revisionism and a broad anti-intellectual attituide are hegemonic today. From my experience theory, if it is even studied at all, is done in an ecltic, unfocused manner based purely off of personal interest rather than directed at understanding / strategizing about a particular problem–theory and practice are entirely separated.

PSL kind of indirectly enforces this by overemphasizing capital P Party (actually Procedural really) discipline among its members. With every comcievable task officially delegated, for instance, if there’s an event a such-and-such person will be told they are responsible for bringing water, the other fliers, etc. Such explicit, granular control is fitting more of a boot-camp than a Communist Party in the sense that there is no way creative applications, or avant-garde developments can occur in such an environment. Not to mention the problem of dissent & censorship endemic among Trotskyite groups.

I’m being too detailed for what I want to get across in this comment. Although I don’t necessarily agree with them 100% the Unity Prospectus by USU covers the lay of the land of the US left quite well:

I guess the advice I have for you is that while you should get involved in whatever is available, you should do so with a critical eye–never lose persoective on the ultimate goal of a Communist revolution; understand the difference between tactics-as-plan and tactics-as-process & don’t get lost in the weeds. With that in mind, always strive to criticize incorrect ideas, no matter how unwelcome it may be; claim no false-unity either, divide what can be divided into two sides. Have a sense of separation and think of it as an investigation.

Can confirm it works on Linux

https://thecrusader.news/2024/06/14/the-black-national-question-and-the-black-belt-thesis/ does a good job summarizing it.

This is fundamentaly a liberal conception of the world, that the solution to everything is to just have the right people in charge. The constant regeneration of capitalism is not born out of some individuals conscious will. It is ideological, structural, etc.

Conceptually you’ve jettisoned the very idea of class struggle, you’ve interalized defeat to such a degree that revolution is preemptively liquidated, and in its place put forward the same blathe utopianism that has been repudiated for hundreds of years. I will give you things though, you are correct to not tail this or that power, but by no means are you a Communist.

To think that millions of people of this world bled, toiled, and dedicated their lives under the sky of a Communist horizon, in the name of revolution, could be swept away in just a few sentences in an internet comment is not just a horror of its inadequacy to capture the experience of the world proletarian revolutions of the past, but it is pure arrogance!!

The PKK released over 1 hour of footage recently of their operations from the last year or so, including the helmêt (hêlmet, or helmet? IDK) operation in which a fortified position of the Turkish army was completely overran.

An interesting things to note is the technology the PKK has gotten fairly recently. They have drones, IR night vision thingymajiggs, and more modern rifles instead of ancient surplus AKs. Yes they were capable of shooting down helicopters in the past, but to me it nevertheless looks like they have drastically increased their technological capacity.

Also mountainous combat looks like hell on earth. I have no idea how they do it.

So you think it’s an invalid concept because of a moral judgement of the Bourgeois state’s legal system? Does not your invokation of the ‘black market’ belie your point? That the criminal has an objectively different relation to production than the proletariate?

Also you know what concept could only be thought up by some educated German theorist? That the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggle. What postmodern nonsense!

Beyond the particulars I think you need to go back to the very basics. What’s class? Proletariate? What makes the proletariate a revolutionary class? What’s meant by it having ‘radical chains’? Finally, what’s Marxism? Is it just a perscriptive lens?

Anemia of theory will be the death of us all…
