    Man thinks that the core’s economy collapsing after being deprived of all the free labor from neocolonialism would not hurt any worker

    He surely knows his Marx and his Lenin by heart

      there’s an infographic that’s gone around here suggesting that amerikkka is so unequal that the average person here would be better off with a globally equal distribution of wealth.

      cut off full stop? sure that’s gonna cause problems. Walling the 1% and paying fairly for that formerly colonized labor would go as smoothly as the bourgeoise would let it.

        Yes I totally agree, this is why in itself the guy we’re dunking on isn’t absolutely wrong, in the sense that, global socialism is better for everyone. But the thing is, walling the 1% (aka revolution since the 1% have all power in the current system) is very hard, and Imperial core workers aren’t showing enough organisation, skills and… Minecraft-only tactics, for this to happen.

        So it is right to say that they are at odds with the global South proletariat in the sense that in the present, Imperial core workers fear economic crisis, and would in part support military interventions to maintain colonial power under the guise of democracy and freedom.

        If the worker’s movement in the global North turns to solidarity and revolutionary defeatism, then it’s a banger and we’ll all be better off
