  • I’m not the first person to suggest a nation comprised of Black Americans, this post was talking about it mostly in a way about how it would interact with other nations if the US balkanized. Assume it has communist policies on race, but a Black state is going to have Black nationalism. A nation created for the descendants of Black slaves is going to have a bit to say on race that would be unorthodox to current communist doctrine. I think it would be state policy to prevent white people from owning more property than a Black person can for example. Nations aren’t these permanent things, they change. And I would assume that a New Africa would have some form of capitalism until it could transition into a fully communist society. And that would require that white people have less access to capital as a matter of equity. It’s not perfect but neither was the transition from apartheid South Africa. But it was good.

    As for Canada. They are more left leaning than the US government, it’s liberal, but it also recognizes indigenous land claims better than the United States. Canada is a place where I think electoralism could work to get communists in power, and for that reason alone I think Canada doesn’t need to be destroyed in the same way the USA does. I’m not defending Canada here, but Canada taking US land would make sense in a collapse. Yeah some libs would flee the terror there, but overall it’s better Canada is not an ally of the US in a war with the global south than is.
