So as Marxists, as I understand it, we’re supposed to consider systems like feudalism, capitalism and socialism as fundamentally transitory. I also understand that communism is different, being classless and therefore containing no contradictions that would drive any “autodynamic” or organic social change. Maybe I have a skewed understanding of our ideology, but this feels like a bold assertion. If history can be summarized as class struggle, and communism has no class struggle, is communism the end of history?
Hopefully this makes sense.
I actually asked one of the older comrades in my org about this. Class didn’t arise out of nowhere, so there’s certainly no reason to think it wouldn’t do so in the future, or as you said classes might reappear. A lot of liberals take that as some grand slam indictment of communism, funny enough. Yeah dude, as it turns out, no one can reliably predict what’ll happen 300 years after they’re dead.
