Is that Ed Milliband?

There is another /pol/ pony raid going on.

>>2011729

Yeah, thanks for your shitty-ass culture industry, burgers.

>>2011729

It thankfully hasn't become that bad here yet, but >>2011735 might have a point I suppose (although rudely phrased).

Pig disgusting-pony genocide best day of my life

Because it's the hegemonic ideology, the ignored backdrop and assumption of all political discussion. Both Republicans and Democrats are liberals, and there's nobody else. So their little differences are represented as fundamental ones, and their false opposition as the whole spectrum of politics.

I'm not American, and not too familiar with their political system and its history, but I believe it is both the result of the Cold War and the 80s neoliberal turn.

The Red Scare and McCarthyism most notably destroyed the SPA and CPUSA. By the late 50s, the SPA stopped running presidential candidates, and the CPUSA "membership had dwindled to less than 10,000, of whom some 1,500 were informants for the FBI" (according to Wikipedia).

People were scared to come out as communists, as they could be fired from their jobs, receive a visit from the FBI, etc. I guess it was necessary for the USA in order to straighten the opposition between the two blocs, and it made everyone forget the American history of socialism in the process.

Then the 80s neoliberal turn was, in retrospect, a turn to the right for the whole Western bloc. I think it made the general expectations of how radical the left should be quite lower, as basic Keynesian policies became suddenly deemed as "unrealistic" and "unpractical" by the professional apologists of Thatcher and Reagan.

How is that true? Working out doesn't change your face. I see plenty of ugly fit people.

>>2011803

When the fuck did I say that?

I have a job, I pay rent. I'm just being honest with myself and admitting that I'm ugly.

>>2011812

Being ugly is not an identity. Just how having a depressive disorder does not mean you are "objectively a depressed person". Beauty is in the eye of beholder. People like George Clooney are 0.01% of population, they are not a good example to compare yourself against.

>>2011811

Becoming fit can change your facial aesthetics. Seen enough before/after pics to claim this.

>>2011846

It can only make your face less fat. If you have a really weak chin, a giant nose and a really pronounced brow, none of that's gonna change even if you starve yourself to death whilst working the gym 24/7.

Idc if Karl Marx was racist cuz the argument for communism isn't a moral argument anyways :)

>>2011122

this is what /leftypol/ actually believes.

The DSA is on its way to 30,000 members and developing leaders and turning libs into socdems and socdems into communists, PSL, WWP, IWW, etc are experiencing expansion alongside local grassroots leftist organizations. There is a socialist culture developing and being built by our IRL comrades every day and /leftypol/ has no idea who their local organizers of note are.

The revolution will leave you behind.

>>2011264

DSA are red liberals. However IWW are always based.

>replace all bourgeois elected officials with those who will be subservient to the unions

>literally keep the same political structure just with different people lmao

If I could go back to do something with the crisis of 2008, I'd go back to before 2008 - build the revolutionary party ready for the crisis. The problem with the public reaction to 2008 was that it had no point of reference, no organization, no leadership. People rioting in the streets with anti-capitalist sentiment will fizzle and die if there is not already in place an organ ready to wield that power. Of course a revolutionary party is not what creates a revolution - but it is what wins it.

Here is how you need to structure the group: 1. Don't try to recruit touchy-feely liberals, but rather go for people who consider themselves non-political. It is MUCH HARDER to make a liberal into a left-wing person. 2. No landlords allowed. No bosses. No police. No students except STEMM-autists. 3. Majority decision-making.

Excuse me sir, this is a no bully zone. No bullying allowed

His mum reads lots of books, and she doesn't even bother trying to comprehend reading capital. This makes anon sad, because he doesn't read at all so it will be even harder for him

>this still doesn't address the fact that the people making a production that has use-value will need to fund their production.

No they don't. What they'll need is:

>factory machines, materials, assembly lines

And what they will do is asking to those who produce factory machines, materials, assembly lines.

If these producers can't face all the demand for reasons, then you'll ask the Soviet to make you a priority; in order to do that, you'll give your arguments about why it is very important to produce whatever use-value you want to produce.

>inb4 That sounds very complex. Isn't market simpler, and thus more efficient?

No, because everything I've described happens in capitalism as well, including the "ask to the Soviet" part (except this time you present arguments not only about utility of what you want to produce – it has to be useful to some extent if you want to sell it – but about prospects for a profit). Market mechanisms do not float in thin air, they are not magical.
