Obviously managers in a communist society won’t be bourgeoisie, right? But I imagine an organization in a communist society still needs people to coordinate everything, even if it’s run like a complete worker cooperative. So will they be elected by the workers? In that case, are they still workers?..
On a reddit comment I saw some Republican apologia (they don’t think direct cash payment is the best way to stimulate the economy, it’s because of the deficit) so I got thinking and realised I don’t have concrete knowledge of why they oppose it. Is it because it will squeeze money out of handouts th…
I like to play MtG, and some of those cards are expensive as fuck, while others cost pennies, but they literally are all require equivalent amounts of labor. I also saw a Louis Vuitton dice case that costs $720. I’m no expert on dice cases, but I highly doubt it took significantly more labor than an…
I have some genuine questions about the Maki (Communist Party of Israel), what is their line, and their views on the events surrounding the Levant?..
So I was looking up nazbols because I’ve been curious about them. Wikipedia (everyone’s favourite website) considers the movement to a brand of fascism. …
I’m not new to communism, but I figured this is the right community to ask. I’ve met some fellow MLs at protests, but I don’t know if there are any communist/revolutionary groups in my city. (Richmond) How might I find out? …
I’m not sure if this question makes sense, but as someone fairly new to leftism, it seems a lot of time that far leftists and especially communists often don’t like non-leftists in any way and don’t want to interact with them, but that’s just what I’ve seen on the internet and I have no idea how it …

Do you know any good, Marxist texts analyzing racism in Europe? Or texts about racism that are generally applicable? The vast majority that I found are about racism in the United States, or about colonised countries. …
The screenshot explains what happened. How is explaining the political compass reactionary? I get that it’s a terrible way to represent politics but how tf is it reactionary? There’s been no response after that messages so I suppose that’s it, I’m permabanned. What is wrong with the mods, holy shit…
This professor’s accent sounds a bit like Bernie Sander’s. If only Bernie was this based. I have downloaded the whole playlist onto my computer (~8.7GB) and plan on finishing this series if it’s good. …
I’m arguing about this with a liberal who states that it both is Trump’s/the “Republicans’” fault. Could someone find me sources about that it was bad before Trump got elected already? Also, about how Biden isn’t going to change anything about that? …
I know a decent amount about it, but I realized I don’t have sources for it and I want to convince a Castroist comrade that they’re not as bad as liberal propaganda says. …
This channel seems cool, and the video was informative and hilarious. At the end of the video, 36 minutes in, he also recommends other channels and also he created a Parenti lecture playlist too, which is just what I was asking for in my earlier post LOL…
Comrades, I have been listening to Parenti lectures on YouTube. He is informative with a great sense of humor. Most YouTube lectures however are low quality and somehow every time his mic is busted. Anybody know where I can find high quality lecture recordings?..
