IRAN WAR | MASSIVE REDDIT DRAMA!!!!

Yeah, Jim Bay.

ones my mic fucking works ones ones ones ones ones if it works

Second of all, okay, good.

Second of all, PJ, what's up, bro?

Appreciate you.

Thank you so much.

Laura with the five.

Appreciate you.

PJ with the 25.

Thank you so much, bro.

Appreciate you guys.

What is up, Drama Nation?

I'm your host for the

Latest and greatest drama

Uh I'm really trying hard guys to pretend like I care about this.

I'm almost gonna be thirty years old.

Anyway, if you're not caught up on the latest drama, which is super important.

I'm gonna just get right into it.

Harold, what's up?

Uh, so I'm actually, we're gonna get into a rabbit hole tonight.

I mean, like, hold your horses, strap in.

This is gonna be like a rabbit hole.

I kind of went down the rabbit hole of Reddit a little bit over the past few days, a little bit baffled and shocked that actual human beings exist who like have these worldview.

I don't fucking know what it is.

Uh, we're gonna get into it, though, trust me.

We're in the middle of the Iran war.

Probably the most decisive and defining moment in world history within our lifetime.

And self-proclaimed communists, if you can believe it, these people call themselves MLs somehow.

I mean, this is just a deprogrammed crowd, I guess.

I would just have expected they would have matured a little bit.

But no, it's the same thing I've been seeing literally since four years ago when I just started Infrared.

It's literally the same derangement.

It's like actual mental illness, and I can prove it.

Like, I'll just show this to you.

I want a single person to defend whether this is normal.

Okay, without getting into that, I'll tell you why we're even talking about these people.

Um, if you don't know this, we actually are quite big on Reddit.

I myself am a little shocked by it.

I go on Ask Socialists, and let's look at it right now.

Uh, it has like 614,000 weekly visitors and 46,000.

It's a lot of it's a lot, it's a lot of fucking people in it.

We've over one of the biggest political subs on Reddit is just like a random infrared pro ACP sub.

And that's thanks to an Australian IGG member named Famous Plan.

Now, I didn't even know who Famous Plan was until he started doing this.

Brandon, thank you so much, man.

Appreciate you.

But he took this dying, outdated Reddit.

Nobody was visiting it, asked socialists, and he turned it into like a giant powerhouse.

And.

Uh

As Prism said, he's like the Napoleon Bonaparte of Reddit, I guess.

Because not only was he able to take over that sub.

I kind of I I I just learned how like this works, like how it actually happens.

Apparently like you just need a head mod to appoint you somehow and then you could just go full order sixty six and like totally take it over like I don't know.

But apparent yeah he's like the Napoleon Bonaparte of Reddit apparently because he just single handedly is just taking over like all these Reddit subs.

And before I get into my theory of how he's doing that, I just want to point out something that's a little funny.

Um, everyone thinks somehow that this is like an ACP conspiracy.

That like we're sitting in some like command center or something, and we're like directing him to do this, and we're like conspi we're using all like our resources and infrared and ACP.

We're like marshaling people and mobilizing them to like do this.

And like these people are giving themselves their own pats on the back.

Oh, we stopped ACP, we stopped ACP.

It's literally, you're not fighting against ACP, buddy.

You're fighting against one Australian member of the infrared.

You're fighting against one Australian gorilla who is one-shotting all of you fucking retards.

And why he's doing that is because the majority of you, I don't know, I want this.

I'm going to make this a YouTube VOD, so I have to be careful what I say.

But the majority of you are not mentally, you know, you kind of have a mental deficiencies and you're like furries and you're hyper-autistic and stuff.

So this one Australian infrared member is just terrorizing Redditors left and right.

Like, I don't know, thousands of people are being traumatized by this.

It's building up so much hate toward ACP.

I don't even know exactly what is going on.

Apparently, like ACP did all and you know what?

Fuck it.

Let's take credit.

I don't have no problem.

It's the best investment of my life.

It's do nothing and win.

We don't have to like allocate any resources toward this.

I literally don't even have to pay attention to it.

This Napoleon of Reddit, he's just taking over all these subs in our name and on our behalf.

Hey, you know, look.

I've been pretty vigilant about Reddit.

Um I tried using it for about a week.

I tried making some quality posts, I tried arguing with people and they just could not listen to reason.

It's just like Nasbull, Nasbull, fed, Nasbull, Nasbull, bigot, fed and the essence of it always comes down to that they perceive we are transphobic and homophobic.

And that's it.

All don't mind all of these allegations that they're making.

They don't really have a problem with us beyond the fact that they perceive us to be anti-transgender.

And apparently, that is enough for them to decide and declare that we are the CIA, the FBI, Adolf Hitler reincarnated, the Nazi Party reincarnated, the epitome of fascism, genocide, and everything, and Satan himself, I guess, right?

Because transgenderism is really just the most important thing in the world.

I mean, regardless of whether or not they're exaggerating about how much we even care about that issue, let's just like give a pat on, let's just give a round of applause.

To these autistic fetitors for really getting their priorities in order.

There's a genocide going on in Iran, there's been a genocide in Gaza.

Uh thanks to the you know

The ineptitude of these so-called communists, these so-called leftists.

But I'm I'm sh I'm glad that they are focusing on the true anti-fascist struggle, which is not a struggle against the imperialist hegemony, it's not a struggle against the status quo, uh the people actually in power, it's a struggle against the transphobes.

And uh I can't I sound like a boomer even talking about this shit.

I just

What does that say though?

It's like these people are stuck in the 2010s.

These are like Tumblrites from 2015 or 2016.

It's like I'm taking a time warp.

And I don't know how much I need to tell these people.

Like, you're not our target audience.

Okay.

I just, like, don't really care what you think of us.

Um, I don't even know if I should be responding to this.

Like, what am I supposed to say?

Is there anything you would even consider a response?

Are you even like able to articulate?

Are you even able to entertain the possibility that I have a response to these crazy things you say about us?

Like, I don't even know what to say at this point.

You want this delusional, uh, furry fandom version of communism where you think Stalin is like pro-transgender and you think communism is like on board with all of your internet subcultures that you got on Tumblr and digital artist websites or whatever, and that Lenin would be accepting of furries.

And it's this like utopia of all inclusivity where there's absolutely no sense of restriction, prohibition, or meanness or norms at all.

Please just keep living in your world of delusion.

You're not.

I don't understand.

Like, I don't even think I want people like you in our party at all if you behave this way and if your priorities are focused.

On not only like these stupid small issues, but it's like you're crying about ACP all day in the middle of the most consequential war probably in your lifetime.

It's just like that will never cease to baffle me.

And finally, you know, I'm gonna I'm we're gonna get into it, we're gonna read what they're saying.

But uh they claim something like uh oh, this proves because this Australian Napoleon

Is taking over their Reddits.

More on that in a second.

This proves the feds are after us.

I'm so tired guys, like I'm so exhausted.

I'm not even kidding.

Like I'm extremely tired.

I'm like a fat woman on Tumblr at this point.

I'm just tired, guys.

I'm tired.

Fat women are tired, you know?

Uh

Because like

If okay, if we were feds, wouldn't we just be pandering to you and just waving your transgender flag and then slowly inching you toward getting your priorities away from anti-imperialism and toward this like retarded sectarianism?

Isn't that what we would if we were bad faith actors who weren't genuine about our beliefs, why wouldn't we just wave your trans because this is what this is about is the transgender flag, I think, right?

Wouldn't we just wave that transgender flag and then be totally accepted by you and you wouldn't even question us?

There are feds in your ranks I can name, okay?

Because we've caught them.

And you don't care.

You like give them the benefit of the doubt because they're pro-transgender.

So if we were truly feds, wouldn't isn't that what we would do?

We would just like camouflage ourselves among you.

Why would we be dropping these like extremely harsh, brutal bombs on you that apparently just cause so much psychological anguish and cognitive dissonance?

Why would we be going up fighting this uphill battle and like standing our ground if it wasn't that we actually believe this?

No, no, no, shut the fuck up.

No, shut the fuck up.

I'm sick of hearing this.

It's 2026.

It's the current year.

Yes.

It's 2026.

At this point, if we were Nasbulls, we probably would be able to benefit in terms of like the grift that they accuse us of way more than we are right now.

Why the fuck would we be scared of admitting we're Nasbulls if we are Nasbulls, you fucking idiot?

I've been to Donbass.

Do you understand?

I've been to the training camps where the Russian soldiers are practicing for the war in Ukraine.

Not a single one of those fucking people give a shit about your sensibilities.

The world that I'm in and I'm a part of isn't scared.

Of of of you know

Confessing that they're part of these tendencies and ideologies if it's actually what they fucking believe.

What is holding me back if I'm truly a Nazbull in my heart of hearts?

If we are Nazbulls, why would we not just say we're Nazbulls?

You think I'm scared of being canceled by you?

We would have such an easier time actually if we said we were Nazbulls, but we're just not, okay?

I don't know, like I guess I'm the bearer of bad news that you have to hear this, but there are a lot of communists in the world, I would probably say the majority of them, who don't have the same temperament and psychology and sensibilities that you do.

And I hate to be the bearer of bad news and tell you that no, transgenderism is not normal in North Korea.

No, they think that, by the way, I read their subreddit.

They think that because in North Korea, they offer people the opportunity to change the gender identity that's on their license, if they are mistakenly given a wrong one.

They can revise it and change it.

Same with their birth date, by the way.

They can go back to the office and be like, hey, you got my birth date wrong.

You got my gender wrong.

Let me change it.

They think that's proof that North Korea is like a transgender paradise and it's transgenderism.

And then they'll say, well, China has transgenders in it.

So that means China is on board with our thing.

But it's like, hold on.

Actually, when you think about it, it's like, when did we say we even hate transgenders or whatever?

We just don't fly your flags and we don't think it has any political significance, which is the same position in China.

China doesn't even legalize same-sex marriage.

Yeah, these things exist within China for sure.

But do they import it with some kind of political significance and claim it's part of some like process of liberation and it's like has something to do with revolution or something?

No, they've never done that.

No communist state in history has ever regarded this matter as of political importance or something.

The closest you'll find to that, I guess, are states which have heavily succumbed to the influence of Western liberalism.

But uh I I don't know, I dunn I I just feel really stupid even like arguing about this.

It's just it's just like I I saw I feel stupid even entertaining their idiocy and their delusion.

Uh they have this big problem with us that's extremely pathological and psychological.

So, to give you the story, there's somebody who's the top mod of Tanky the D program who sympathizes with us, I guess.

And they decided because they know

Famous Plan, they just decided to like give him a moderator spot.

And all that happened was that, right?

As soon as Famous Plan got top mod, it wasn't top moderator.

He got some moderator spot.

Everyone in this subreddit started freaking out.

They started saying this is the end of the world.

They started non-stop spamming the subreddit with nothing but like autistic anti-ACP just gibber and nonsense.

Oh, look at these tweets.

They're so cancelable.

Look at these tweets.

Cancel them.

Cancel them.

Um

I know, I can't believe I'm saying this in twenty twenty six.

It's fucking crazy.

Like, I can't believe these people still exist.

And then Famous Plan was like, alright, you know what?

This isn't really topical.

It's not really related to Marxism-Leninism.

It's not related to like any current events that matter at all.

So I guess he started like banning these like one-liner, low-effort spam posts about people getting ass hurt with their ass bleeding, crying and shitting their pants about ACP, ACP this, ACP that, Haas this, Jackson that.

They give it a fucking rest.

Like, who gives a fuck?

What even is our crime, materially speaking, right?

We said some, we hurt your feelings.

We, we, I don't know.

It's, it's such a mystery.

It's one of the big I have many theories, actually.

We're going to talk about that too, because I have a lot of theories.

But first of all, they said, okay, let's go back to the thing where they're like, this proves ACP are feds, right?

What is so just tiring about that line of attack is just like.

I'm just, I'm a really like empathetic person in the sense that like I put myself in people's shoes to try to understand like how does that, how do you actually like live with this stupidity?

How do you process it and make sense of it?

And like what they are experiencing in this Reddit, I'm not even kidding.

They think Reddit is like this safe haven, that they've created this community insulated from the bad faith actors in the U.S.

government.

And that Reddit as a platform is like all these independent, tech-savvy nerds who are just like independent thinkers.

And because it was the Reddit admins, apparently, who removed Famous Plan.

That's why I'm saying this.

And they're like, but sometimes the U.S.

government, like swiper, no swiping from Dora the Explorer, sometimes just kind of swipes in and like, oh, we found you, U.S.

government.

Yeah, we did it, Reddit.

We stopped the feds.

And it's like this paradigm is just so tiring to me for how stupid and naive it is.

First of all, every single subreddit, every single thing on Reddit, including the majority of posters on Tanky D program.

Yeah, I refuse to believe this many people give a shit about something so niche.

It is all manipulated.

Every post is manipulated with bots.

Pro-ACP posts in pro-ACP subreddits, they can't even get more than five upvotes.

It's like you, all of you have experienced this.

You've tried to like type once.

I tried.

I tried this for like five days when I was sick.

I remember.

And it's like they down-dot doot you to a blitz.

Who's doing this?

You mean to tell me these people are like here and they're no, this is manipulated.

There's no human beings who are monitoring this in such real time.

Ghislaine Maxwell was one of was a Reddit admin.

She's like a top admin or moderator or some shit, right?

But I digress.

They like Reddit.

There is no place on Reddit that isn't manipulated by the government.

And the way the government is going to manipulate your subreddits isn't going to be through Famous Plan being appointed mod, you fucking idiot.

They have back-end access.

Meaning they can control and steer discourse however they want to.

It doesn't matter who the mods are.

It doesn't matter, you know.

Who these personalities are.

They have back-end technical access to the platform.

You're naive as fuck if you don't think that.

Second of all, they have.

They have, I mean, if we were the feds, wouldn't we have the bots to raid your subreddits and change the discourse like that?

Because that's what it would look like.

I'm not saying this because I'm like defending ourselves.

Oh, we're not feds.

We're not feds.

I don't, it's like a stupid accusation.

I'm saying this because, like, it bothers me that people have such a wrong view of how they're being manipulated and how their perceptions are being manipulated.

The way the government shapes perception online is not by having one guy that all of you hate, famous plan, try to change the rules in your subreddits so that ACP people are allowed to defend themselves.

And have more tolerance for instead of just banning everybody who says anything remotely favorable to us.

They use bots and bot farms to change the discourse by overwhelming the communities and the personalities in these communities and the discourse.

Like if you're sitting in your computer at home and you're on these Reddits and like all the posts are going in one direction and all the updates are correlated with a specific position.

That is absolutely something that could be a consequence of artificial platform manipulation by the US government, and that's how they would do it.

They would not do it by sending one person that all of you hate to be your scapegoat that you can cry and shit your pants about all the time.

Okay.

Um, and even ask socialists, which is a huge subreddit.

Um, I don't know, I mean, like.

I don't know how these things go viral.

I don't know what the logic behind it is.

I really never have trusted Reddit.

I tried using it for five days, and the conclusion that I drew was that as a good cult leader, not only do I not want to be on Reddit, I don't even want our community to be on Reddit.

This is the conclusion I drew in December because there's such a kind of culture there that I absolutely do think, like on a deep psychological level.

Is is extremely suspect in terms of like what kinds of psychologies and ideologies and

uh temperaments and so on and sensibilities that it molds you into having and promotes.

The kind of even the tone of voice that you it's so creepy how AI is trained on Reddit in the way that it is.

I think Reddit I don't want us to raid Reddit and conquer Reddit, because I think what would end up happening is that Reddit would conquer us.

And I think that would turn us into something that is just antithetical with

Um the type of revolutionary consciousness that I think we need to cultivate.

So I just distaste Reddit, first of all.

And that's why I'm not on it.

That's why Infrared as a community really isn't on it.

But Famous Plan is, and more power to him.

I have no problem with what he's doing.

If he wants to take over all these subreddits, more power to him.

But now I want to get into the question of how has he been able to do this?

Well, the reason he's been able to do this, and I want you all in the Tanky D program to listen very closely because, uh,

Ah, Carlos, can you stop fucking messaging me, man?

Like, I'm literally live.

Anyway, um

He doesn't know I'm live.

Um.

What was I saying?

I lost my train of thought.

What the fuck was I saying?

Holy shit.

Oh, yeah, how he did it.

Yeah, I want you to tanky the D program.

I can't believe there's still a large, lively tendency of people calling themselves MLs who are like literally Tumblr woke scolds.

Like, it's actually fucking crazy.

Minister, what's up?

Yeah, message to that community.

I have a message for you, and it's not even malicious.

I'm just telling you the simple facts.

There are more among your ranks who are either sympathetic with us or have nuance with respect to us than you would be comfortable being able to know about.

I would put that number from 25% to 50% of you.

And they're very quiet and they're not very vocal because there are very loud voices among you who get boosted by bots and all this shit, who are both extremely online, extremely autistic, and very psychologically invested in the perception of whether people are pro-trans or anti-trans.

It's very important to you.

Maybe it's 'cause you are transgender, maybe it's for a different reason.

I don't know.

But that's the number one issue for you.

Uh but but there are a lot of people who sympathize with us, who don't think that that issue is the most important.

And who are aware of what ACP is, who have been exposed to conversing with us?

And that's what's going on here.

Famous Plan is just taught a lot of these top moderators in these subreddits, they're veterans and they're not new tankies, they're older tankies, meaning they have experience in this space.

And all it takes is really for them to just kind of like start talking to people from our side and learning about what we actually are, learning about what our positions are.

And it's very easy for them to start sympathizing with us.

And the reason for that is probably a consequence of the fact that we just get so much like hate and malice and like it's like not proportionate.

You know what I mean?

Like we get so much undue exaggerated.

Uh, there's so much fear mongering, it's so exaggerated.

Oh, you're Nazbulls, you're literally Hitler, you're Nazis.

This is how this is what Brettube used to say about all tankies in 2020, right?

That's what they were saying.

They were saying the whole Nasbull thing, it's so tired, it's so like old.

That this is the last line of this like Hillary Clinton liberalism from 2016, where they're just gonna call everybody Nasbulls who's like not on board with psychological liberalism.

I don't even know like what the issue is exactly.

I guess it's the aesthetics, they don't like our aesthetics.

I guess that's what it is.

I've never heard them like actually articulate what position we have that is wrong or incompati or or like not just genuinely a given if you're an ML.

What would make sense to me, if you want to ask me rationally, like what would make sense for Orthodox MLs to take issue with us, with Infrared specifically?

Actually, there are a few things that would be reasonable if you think about it.

It's that it's the position on religion and the Iranian Revolution in 1979.

And it's just kind of like things like that.

It's my interpretation of materialism.

And it's like.

Um, my understanding of the, you know, the need for a new synthesis of Marxism-Leninism.

Uh there are a lot of heterodox positions that I have that I do think.

are are new and I think dogmatic.

uh people from the communist tradition in the twentieth century might not take a liking to.

But I've never seen people actually criticize me for any of those things.

I only see them attack us for this vague perception that we are right wing coded or we are temperamentally or psychologically right wing.

Um, and it's just kind of like genuinely tiring.

I don't even like know.

What I'm supposed to say here, like

Uh it's very loud, for sure.

So first of all, let's um

Let's start.

with this post explaining what's going on on on Reddit.

Um

So, to start things off, we have this sacrilegious, you know, highly disrespectful image.

of the D program logo

I'm not gonna pretend like whatever, okay, it's a meme.

But apparently, like they are identifying themselves with the Soviet Red Army where homosexuality was banned.

And we are being identified with the Nazis.

And I want to give you a challenge then.

I travel to Russia pretty often.

And I want to invite you to find your own Russian.

And let's actually

I I offer you a genuine challenge, okay?

Um let's conduct a scientific survey.

Of

Veterans of the Great Patriotic War or their or like their sons or daughters who knew them very well, because I know you have to be very old if you're a veteran, right?

But veterans of the Great Patriotic War or their immediate children, and make the survey unbiased and scientific, and let's expose them to the American Communist Party cadre, our sensibilities, our way of doing things, our temperament.

Versus you guys, versus you and your furries and your whatever, and your views about LGBT issues and transgender issues.

And let's record one of two things.

One, are their sensibilities more in line with us or you on those issues?

I would say we are far more liberal than they are.

I would say we are a million times more liberal than they would be.

And I know what your argument's going to be, so don't worry, I'll get to that.

The second thing is: who would they regard as genuine communists?

Us or you?

Who who is going to evoke to them the memory of what Communists were like more, us or you?

If you win this challenge.

I will quit the internet forever.

I will never ever be.

I will literally quit.

I will be offline for the rest of my life.

But if I win this challenge,

Um

Nothing actually.

It would just be my all I would want out of it is just proving to you this and proving everyone this.

So I wouldn't even, I'm not even going to ask anything in return.

If I win, I just win.

If I lose, I will quit the internet forever.

I am willing to I can organize a kind of challenge.

I can organize this.

I can help organize it.

We conduct a neutral scientific survey of people in the USSR, for ex-USSR in Russia, veterans of the Great Patriotic War or their descendants, and ask them.

Who fits the archetype of a communist in your mind more?

ACP people or deprogrammed people, right?

And whose views are more in line when it comes to cultural stuff?

Now, okay, the counter argument they're gonna make is that times are changing and that, okay,

us having views that are

the same and they're not the same by the way uh as them.

I mean, they could be forgiven for having backward reactionary views because they're you know, they they are from a time that's like a century ago.

Well, after a century, progress happens and then um

You know, now the equivalent of having been the Red Army in 1945 is now a furry transgender mascot, Starbucks mascot or something, right?

Um the problem with that argument is that it's it's hinging on a notion of social progress that has nothing to do with Marxism itself.

I could be very good faith when it comes to that and say I think a lot of these subcultures come from the internet and the information age and online forms of socialization because as funny as it is that these people claim we're terminally online, we're on Reddit all the time.

I don't know any ACP comrades who are even on Reddit.

I think it's just Famous Plan who's doing this.

Uh but in in any case, these are extremely terminally online communities and subcultures.

Of course they are.

If you're gonna attach so much importance to your genital identities or whatever,

I think you're probably socialized online.

I think that a lot of the gender confusion comes from online forms of socialization.

Uh the the scope of imagination that has been expanded.

By the internet and by the type of mass culture that the internet um has given rise to and

I think that's pretty fair to say.

I think that the reason for this proliferation of these kind of different furries, I don't know, all these different like subcultures or whatever you want to call them, a lot of that has to do with the fact that people have started to become socialized on the Internet and more enabled to pursue their desires and fantasies via the Internet and via the digital age more than ever before.

And uh that's why I think that, you know, the boomer response to this what they this is the vague kernel of social progress, I guess you have here.

Where you can't simply, you know, appeal to pre-Internet age moral sensibilities and standards.

Because let's be honest, the Internet's fundamentally changed every aspect of our humanity, including

Among heterosexual people.

For example, the looks maxing phenomena, it's very widespread.

Okay, even up to like how we look.

We're learning from the internet very autistically, how to just like learn how to present ourselves.

uh interactions between the sexes are extremely

Um, confused today, and um, there's all sorts of problems that have grown as a consequence of.

This new threshold of civilization that's a consequence of the information age.

So that is like a change in the forces of production that I think you can identify and say, well, no, you can't just go back to pre-internet age norms and appeal to them and say, we're just going to go back to the good old days.

I mean, no, I mean, that's just ridiculous.

But at the same time, in my humble Stalinist opinion, I think.

Without dispensing any judgment whatsoever on these LGBTQIA whatever pluses, genuinely no judgment.

I have nothing to say in terms of judgment.

And I've never have had anything against such people.

I have something against these flags.

The notion that this is liberation, this is a movement.

You're confusing things.

This is not...

This is not the Hamas.

This is not a liberation movement.

This is a new type of sociology that's happening.

Sure, we can't dismiss it, but it's...

Based on stuff, it's not within the realm of like, you know, this is not Spartacus' slave uprising.

Anyway, notice how good faith I'm being and shit, right?

Because I'm about to be 30 years old soon.

And I.

Mm-hmm.

Anyway, look, um in my humble Stalinist opinion

The way that we can be progressive today

Is neither appealing to the past, which is impossible, by the way, nor um, nor you know, uh, uh, contending ourselves with the genuine confusion and loss of normalcy that is a consequence of the new change in the forces of production.

Progress can only be measured, in our case, through a kind of rediscovery of humanity.

And yes,

Uh relations between the sexes will always be a defining feature of humanity.

Human beings are sexed.

It's a fact of how they reproduce, okay?

Men and women uh form humanity and um

Despite the fact that across time these things change in terms of different roles between men and women.

They do change across history for sure.

But what doesn't change is the dialectical.

relationship itself in terms of its content.

And as such, the thing that would be revolutionary today is not simply glorifying all the examples of dysfunction and confusion in the realm of culture and saying this is progress.

The revolutionary and progressive thing would be able to somehow rediscover and rearticulate

Uh an ability for men and women

To

Uh recognize each other again.

After this kind of cataclysmic social media age civilization that we're in, not before, not an appeal to the past.

And not a reaction to the symptoms of the deadlocks within the present, but a resolution of the contradictions, right?

Um

Jakovich, what's up?

So that would be the revolutionary thing.

And by the way, this is what the Soviet Union did.

So I want people to understand the logic of Marxism-Leninism in relation to historical progress and reaction.

Marxism-Leninism is an integral logic of history.

So, what that means is that.

Stalin does regard

Um

There to be

A integral

Um

Form of humanity

That does transcend in some sense history.

And for Stalin, the logic of how this happens is laid out in his writings on language and the question of linguistics.

And also in the national question, too, by the way, but especially on language.

For Stalin, language.

is an integral reality that is not reducible to the mode of production.

It's not reducible to the base and the relations of production.

It's affected by them and it um it like a sponge absorbs the contributions and changes across history, but it absorbs all of them as one integral totality.

So it's a cumulative integrity of history.

This is also how Stalin understands the nations, by the way.

And in this sense, progress doesn't mean you annihilate the logic of the past.

Progress takes the form of a sublation, where you you are preserving the entire past tradition

But in such a way that adapts and adjusts this tradition to a new context.

So in the Soviet Union under Stalin,

Um

Women were in the workforce.

They were engineers.

They were working in factories.

They were pilots.

They were snipers in the Red Army.

They did all sorts of things that were very much not conventionally considered appropriate for women to do in past epochs of production.

But simultaneously, this new expansion of the role of women within society didn't liquidate femininity.

It didn't liquidate the traditional roles of women at the home as child caring and caretaking and so on and so on.

It didn't annihilate and liquidate the integral kind of tradition of women's role in society and their kind of sense of femininity and their way of relating themselves to their mothers and their grandmothers and so on and so on.

There was a sublation that happened where there was an expansion of what they were doing within society for sure, but this was harmoniously reconciled with their womanhood.

Um and that is very distinct from measuring progress in terms of how relations between the sexes and such norms are disrupted.

Disruptions in the norms within society and its culture are not a measure of progress.

Capitalism is the ultimate disruptor, and we learned that from the Communist Manifesto.

The measure of progress and what is truly revolutionary is how in some sense what transcends history itself becomes reconciled and resolved in a new epoch.

So that is the logic of Marxism-Leninism.

And it doesn't just apply to culture and stuff.

And it sounds so wholesome, what I'm saying, and that's why it's kind of cringy.

And can you we don't need the wholesome maxers in in our community to run with oh, let me just please, it's brutal.

Never, never, ever confuse what I'm saying for some kind of

Wholesomeness.

I'm not here to blind you from the brutality of the reality we live in.

So please, before you bef oh, how wholesome, please just fucking I don't wanna fucking hear it, right?

Um

But that is like my god honest, mature, serious take on this issue.

And I just don't see how that makes us Nazis.

Because if you study the history of the USSR and the various different kinds of revolutionary, revolutionary avant-garde experimentation that was happening in the USSR in the twenties and how Stalin and Marxist-Leninists

And the Bolsheviks, how they responded to all of that in the thirties.

There's a specific logic at play here that is similar to the logic of, you know, uh Deng Xiaoping.

With respect to the Chinese Cultural Revolution, right?

So this is Marxism-Leninism, which is a kind of dark Marxism.

You see, Marxism isn't only this light of, oh, universal love and all inclusivity and everybody getting what they want and rainbows and no.

The high note that you're identifying within communism and Marxism-Leninism.

Is only meaningful

Uh if it is united with the dark shadow.

Okay, Soviet propaganda was very much uh optimistic in some way and it's a high note for sure.

But the only reason that was effective propaganda is because and the the only thing that made that compelling is the fact that like everyone saw how

This was, um

Very much.

uh corresponding to a reality of struggle and hardship and a battle to be won.

And it didn't come easy.

It was very, very much a dark side that everyone understood implicitly to all of that.

And so we embrace this darkness and we refuse to deny it and run away from it, and they associate the darkness with Nazism.

And I just think it's a little bit projection actually.

So again, it's kind of ridiculous that they're identifying themselves with the Soviet Red Army and us with Nazism in this case and in this analogy.

When they have no notion of what Marxism-Leninism actually is in terms of how it relates to things like progress and history and what is reaction, what is progress, what is revolutionary, and so on and so on, their notion of progress and historical change comes from liberalism.

It has nothing to do with Marxism-Leninism.

They have no familiarity whatsoever with the history of the USSR and communist states.

They cherry-pick examples of these experimental laws adopted in the DDR and so on and so on.

At the tail end of their existence, like in the Gorbachev era, when they were about to be dissolved and totally infiltrated by Western liberalism, even then they were still more profoundly conservative.

And I've explained that on the Reddit post themselves, by the way, for no other reason than the fact that, okay, on the books and in terms of laws, there was more acceptance maybe in the mid-80s, late 80s in the GDR, but within culture and civil society, it was the total opposite.

West Germany had all of these flourishing subcultures, and this didn't exist in East Germany, though, right?

Because East Germany was a socialist state that was carefully planning pretty much every aspect of society.

That's an exaggeration, but you get the idea.

And West Germany was a laissez-faire kind of capitalist culture of just whatever.

And y everything goes, right?

Despite whatever laws they had on the books that didn't reflect the civil society.

Um

I just feel so gaslit because everything I'm saying

I'm trying to find ways to care about this, and and I don't know.

Guys, I'm like I'm about to be thirty years old this year.

I'm so tired of this shit.

It's like I've been doing this for four years.

Um.

I struggle to care.

Like, I really am just yawning at all.

This is so hysterical.

It's so crazy.

I woke up seeing a top mod at Flamus Plan, one of the national Bolsheviks from the ACP as a moderator.

As soon as we realized the subreddit got infiltrated by those fascists.

Some of the mods got in touch with each other.

And decided how to proceed.

We then contacted Reddit's support and eventually we were able to remove Feynman's Plan.

Uh oh you okay.

I mean

Uh

I

So we're the ones that are terminally online.

Like, what even are you talking about?

Yeah.

Okay, imagine okay, I'm just saying like imagine printing this out on a piece of paper, going to the home of a veteran of the Great Patriotic War and just like telling them this is anti-fascism.

You had your anti-fascism in uh during the great patriotic war, but because we're more progressive and enlightened than you are now, and this is our anti-fascism.

Early in the morning, drunk alunia are you slash drunk like imagine printing this out and like even explaining this to anyone, not even a vet, like just any normal person.

Imagine explaining why this is important to a normal person.

Um 640.

So the how many people are there really who like care about this?

Because I just find this really crazy.

They believe Al Alextine was not hacked.

Where there are no nozbels.

Uh-huh.

More information, oh wow, the story continues.

So there's kind of some self-awareness here.

I guess that they're chronically online.

I want to read the comments, 'cause I read them before and I just was so baffled.

Didn't know he was ACP affiliated.

It's a real thing, sadly, called Oh, just found out what Nazbulls are.

I guess they're the experts on what that is and

Must know for certain that this is what we are, right?

Uh Alextine needs to go.

That's one less Nazbull on the mod team.

A really uh really riveting analysis here.

He he's a s A C P supporter.

He wasn't hacked.

Okay, got it.

What a shock.

I mean sh how could anyone support ACP?

It's so shocking.

Uh the the Marxist-Leninists who

You know

Our actual

Like actual anti-revisionists, Marxist-Leninists, who like are unconditional anti-imperialists.

I don't even know what the difference between us and this community that's why I was so shocked.

I was like, I would have thought that by now these people kind of sympathize with us a little bit.

I didn't know like it's so crazy that they're still hung up on this like transgender stuff that nobody cares about.

These sweating incels have nothing better to do than make their fed org more annoying at every chance.

Fuck the ACP!

This guy's really upset at us and not killing school children in Iran.

So on serious, why do something that makes your organization look so bad?

Well, I could answer that if you're are you asking?

Is this a rhetorical question?

The answer is that our organization, that this didn't require any organizing.

It's straight up, you're fighting one Australian infrared guy.

Backlighter, what's up?

If you want to know what it looks like for ACP to start fucking with you guys, you can test us.

I would be do you do you want that?

Just make a post on your Reddit if you want to call my bluff.

I could very much organize infrared and ACP to start fucking with you guys, and you'll see what that looks like.

So far, you're just dealing with Famous Plan, the Red Napoleon, who is an Australian, random Australian guy in infrared.

That's what you're dealing with right now, one guy.

If you want to know what it looks like for ACP to organize takeover of Reddit.

Well, we could do that.

If you want to call our bluff, we could do that.

For now, we don't even want to be on Reddit.

But if you want, we could show you what that would look like.

Because I I just keep hearing this whining and whining and crying, and it's almost tempting me to be like, Okay, do you want to know what it looks like for us to actually organize to take over Reddit?

If you are if you could barely handle one guy, do you know what it would look like for ACP to organize something like this and what that would actually look like if we organized it?

We're not organizing any of this, okay?

Um just crying and crying and crying.

Like, I don't, it's so just like, what the hell?

It's like I feel like that tired lion who just like

Like Jesus Christ.

It's you know that photo of the tired lion who's just like

He just keeps getting his like ball sack bitten.

And it's like, Jesus, leave me the fuck alone.

Like, I don't care.

Like, literally, stop crying and whining.

Leave me the fuck alone.

Like, I feel like that right now.

Like, Jesus Christ.

Like,

Literally, log off and touch some fucking grass, honestly.

Like, I can't believe I'm saying that.

Farabi with the ten, what's up?

Ones if you can't hear me.

Twos of you can hear me.

Alright, alright, alright.

Um

But you see we are d yeah, they just kind of talking to each other.

I mean, they ban all of us.

Not us you can't catch us dead in one of these things.

Uh which is funny 'cause they're complaining that Famous Pan plan was like banning Son of we get banned e on every one of their subreddits they ban us, right?

Because they can't organically get support so they hijack online leftist spaces to force shilling for them.

But wasn't it one of your own mods who appointed Famous Plan?

So clearly we do have more support.

It's just that they're probably just not that vocal about it because of crazy Autistics like you who just like

Or have obsessive um tendencies.

Uh it's raised awareness about how shitty ACP are.

I were not convinced they were bad as people say they are.

Now I know.

It's one last Cosmogenesis night, one last one last person that's gonna join us, guys.

It's really bad.

It's funny 'cause all Famous Plan did was just like become mod, and then the people started freaking out.

So then he just started like banning spam.

And apparently we are worse than Hitler, who did the Ho this is worse than the Holocaust.

I'm not even kidding.

To these people, this is worse than the Holocaust.

This is worse than Auschwitz and the Holocaust.

I'm not even kidding.

These people think that this is worse than Auschwitz and the Holocaust.

Because Famous Plan became mod, because their own mod appointed him or something.

Send them in.

Okay, I do you want to go and meet people who worked on these tanks who are still alive and ask them what they think about you versus us?

It's like, please stop this posturing and claiming the legacy of the USSR when you fucking know nothing about it besides watching Hakeem videos.

Please shut the fuck up.

You're literally so embarrassing.

Uh, okay.

I'm like, I'm autistic too.

So, like, you know.

Yeah, you're not gonna claim our symbols, buddy.

Don't don't don't try this shit.

All right, I'm also autistic.

Um

The subreddit is compromised, there's nothing to stop them from doing the exact same thing tomorrow.

A C P phash.

Oh my god.

This is like a lot.

Ah okay.

Further proof ACP is a CIA operation to divide the left.

I'm so embarrassed for these people, it's fucking crazy.

Uh it's like, where do you even begin?

Uh it is interesting though, if his account is hacked, um why not put Famous Plan to the top?

So the sub is compromised.

Oh my god, it's compromised because there's one guy who, like, kind of is friends with somebody who sympathizes with us.

Okay, yeah.

It's like a Harry Potter and it's like the villain.

What's his name?

Voldemort at his back, right?

You gotta.

It's like Among Us.

It's like a red scare, honestly, you know?

Just can we get more detail?

Unless what the Nazbull said is true.

Uh they want to really get rid of that guy.

Den Poo okay.

Mhm.

Yeah, this is just like this evokes feelings similar to the Victory Day in the USSR.

The def new definition of fascism just dropped.

It's when you uh

You don't do pride parades.

Which no Communist State has ever done anyway.

Uh it's kind of telling that instead of focusing on building up their own user base with their own communities, they choose to infiltrate other communities through dirty, underhanded means.

You know, again, I don't want to keep reiterating myself, but like the funny thing about this is that we're not actually actively infiltrating you.

What's happening is that many of your own are starting to be won over by us.

But are but our kind of um

Not too comfortable being open and vocal about that because of these crazy

Like rabid people who just like cancel and dogpile and like fucking lose their mind and freak out about it.

If you freak out about shit, you're gonna scare people into being silent, which is whatever.

But like, these are your own.

These are your own.

It's cut.

The call is coming from your the house.

This is your own fucking people.

Like, you'd be surprised to know this.

But the tanky world is very small.

And I would say at least most tankies either sympathize with us or have nuanced views about us.

As much as you're trying to gatekeep it and say that.

You know, whatever.

It's like we are a pretty prominent force in this world, right?

ACP is a cancer on Communist parties and movements everywhere.

Which parties in which movements?

Can you please name them?

Besides PSL, who we barely interact with?

Uh waiting for the Moist Critical video.

Me too, honestly.

That would be crazy.

I would love to see Moist Critical's like response to all this.

Uh I think he would be very you know interested in in seeing um your reactions to this big important thing in the middle of the Iran war.

I'm a sister from the Red Left.

Uh run-ins with Nazbles Fascists that are the ACP

Uh the fact they hacked an account to take over subreddit is deeply disturbing.

Very coined.

Their u Cointel Pro is

These people not know what the what do you mean, Cointelpro?

What do you what do you mean by that?

Are you implying the US government doesn't just have back end access to Reddit and can literally use bots from Eaglin Airbase to manipulate the discourse and community however it wants to?

You you think this is how the government moves when it comes to Reddit?

There's just sending one Australian guy to fuck with you guys and terrorize you?

And what do you mean, coincidental pro?

I mean, you'd think your Reddit is that important?

Your subreddit?

I mean, this is crazy.

I just I okay, I I don't I I don't want a cortisol spike because in all likelihood these people like probably are like Brandon Torres and they're like I like Pokemon, I like Donkey Kong Like they're probably just kind of straight up like I don't wanna say it 'cause it's whatever.

But I don't really think they're all there.

I honestly, I think these people are a little like

A little screws are loose or they're just kind of like developmentally stunted a little bit or like something like that.

Because like, how are you gonna say this Reddit drama is coin to like, coin do you even know what that is?

Uh I'm not denying Reddit is super manipulated.

But that's just the point.

Is ACP popular on Reddit?

No, because it's fucking manipulated.

If the government wanted to make us popular artificially, they could.

It would be very easy for them to AstroTurf us with the updutes and the bots that it would take to make it convincingly look like the majority of people are on our side.

Instead, what they do is the opposite.

They absolutely frantically go out of their way to ensure that we are never given a fair

Spot in the sun, I guess, on Reddit.

And like, they will never allow discourse to be on our favor on Reddit ever.

Even on Ask Socialists itself?

I wouldn't say that the best thing we have on Ask Socialist is that we're not censored there.

So we have the opportunity to respond to people's questions about us and people have the ability to ask questions about us without getting dogpiled and shit.

But even I wouldn't even say like on Ask Socialist the discourse is necessarily in our favor.

I just think we're we're given a chance to kind of make our case in ways that we're not elsewhere.

Um but Reddit we will never be able to win the discourse on Reddit.

It's just it's such a manipulated platform.

It's just not possible.

But the idea that Cointell Pro behavior would take this form is just extremely naive when the government just has back-end access to everything.

They don't need to send one infrared Australian guy to terrorize you, I promise.

They can do much more than that.

Much more.

What is the ACP?

Nationalist Bolsheviks.

They are like Nazis, but Communist in only aesthetic.

100% sure they're funded by the Feds.

Um this person's a hundred percent sure, so and fifteen people updated it, so you better take it seriously.

Hundred 100% sure.

Not even like I'm kind of suspected.

No, no, no, they're a hundred percent sure.

Okay.

All right.

Well, you can't argue with that.

It's really compelling.

Really convincing.

Bunny House Okay, so I'm not even making up the furry thing.

Holy wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait.

He kicks two fur bro, I'm not even okay, so it is furry slash, so I'm not even wrong for making this association, am I?

This is what I mean.

I thought I was being facetious or a little hyperbolic when I'm mentioning furries.

I'm literally not.

Look at them.

They're literally saying furries are an oppressed minority getting Holy shit.

Okay, so let me get this straight.

The Feds are interested in divorcing

Marxism-Leninism from furries.

Where am I?

Is this like a mental asylum?

What the fuck is this?

Holy shit, why do I feel so gaslit like I'm crazy?

Am I in a mental asylum?

Like, what is this?

Have I you know what this reminds me of?

This reminds me of those second life videos where the guys trolling people on second life.

I feel like I walked into one of these second life servers where it's like avatar or like some other like perversion or like my little pony or whatever.

And like, it's all these like second life people like pretending to be ponies or avatar people or like furries or something.

And it's like.

Yeah, there's a lot of them for sure, but it's like are these are not normal people.

They're just not normal.

All right.

We have we've walked in on something very strange.

Like, I don't know what this is.

Like they're very they're they're LARPing as communists, they're larping as Soviets.

I kinda understand, it's like a LARP.

They're literally it's like a pretend play pretend LARP.

The Red Army and the stuff.

They're LARPing as that, but they're not it's not serious to them.

It's just like a kind of like, this is my costume.

Uh holy shit.

Best of luck, comrades.

Comment removed.

I wonder what that is.

Your comment contains historical accuracies and blatant CIA propaganda.

Mhm.

I wonder what that comment was.

We'll never know.

Okay, so let's read this other news.

Alex Tatine, the moderator of the sub.

Is a is A C P.

Okay, they they they

Got it.

Okay.

Got it.

Yes, sir, as chairman.

Yes, sir, they're ACP.

You said so.

It's got to be true.

I just uh okay, I'm the chairman and that this is news to me, but you know what?

You're you're in charge for sure.

I d I would never dare contradict your persona.

I would never dare tell you something you didn't want to hear.

'Cause then you're gonna get a little angry and you're gonna get a little shaky and you're gonna start rocking back and forth violently and breaking things, right?

Um

Okay.

No, this okay, you want to talk about crazy?

You want to talk about crazy?

Two hundred and fourteen upvotes.

Anyone else find it strange the ACP debacle occurred when the Iran war e what what is the implication here?

In the past three days, very convenient in the midst of free press being utilized in the sub, an organic org commandeers the sub and changes the discourse.

There's a lot to unpack here.

I just see the keck W's and it's like, should I unpack it?

Is is it not self-evident that how stupid this is?

It's like, okay, let's make a list, shall we?

One, there is not a single organization in the United States of America more pro-Iran than the ACP.

To the point where uh whenever whenever I get detained by customs or the DHS at the border, they're always asking me, Have you been to Iran?

Are you in Iran?

When are you going?

I've been to I invited to Iran many times, by the way.

Have you been invited to Iran?

No, so shut the fuck up.

And I haven't gone, by the way, because literally I'll go to fucking jail or some shit, right?

Second of all,

Um

We did not change any discourse because we weren't even involved in any of this.

Famous Plan was.

Third of all, Famous Plan did not change any discourse.

He was just appointed mod.

After he was appointed mod, you changed the discourse.

You started freaking out about ACP.

You started changing the fucking topic and spamming endlessly and bitching and crying and moaning about ACP for no fucking reason just because Famous Plan is sympathetic to us.

You ignored the Iran war yourself.

You stopped paying attention to it.

And you spent days fucking crying and shooting your fucking pants about us when there's a fucking war going on.

So shut the fuck up with this retarded fucking implication that it's our fucking fault that you shit your pants and started fucking crying during the fucking Iran war.

Because the subreddit that we control as an organic, you fucking bitch, fuck you and kill yourself, bitch.

By the way, the fucking sub we control, by the way, this is us.

Non-stop Iran war.

Non-stop anti-war.

Anti-war.

Non-stop.

Everything we're on this fucking sub is anti-war.

So to say if we were trying to detract people away from caring about the Iran war, wouldn't the sub that Famous Plan controls

Not literally every post be about the Iran war?

This sub that we control, right?

614,000, 46,000 weekly.

Which one actually has more reach and is more impactful when it comes to raising awareness about the Iran war?

Sit the fuck down, shut the fuck up, never fucking open your mouth again, you fucking idiot.

I mean, the implication.

Oh, what a coincidence!

That you started shitting your pants and having a fucking meltdown because Famous Plan was appointed mod?

Something I didn't even fucking know about.

Why?

'Cause he lives in Australia and I was sleeping.

I woke up to your fucking meltdown.

I was told I had to be told about it.

If Famous Plan was in charge of your subreddit, it would probably be going viral as fuck right now, covering the Iran war, just like he did with Associalists.

So the only people who care about not about ignoring the events in Iran are you, because you care about transgender issues more than anti-imperialism.

Okay, we have the same post on Ask Socialists.

You got 10 people gave a shit about this.

Is that our fault?

10 people updated this versus the one versus what?

Let me just find, let me just find anything, literally anything.

Okay, fuck ACP Chuds.

Okay, I want to show you this.

10 people gave a shit about this news, right?

149 people are updating this anger outrage about Haas being very serious when he said in 2021, he was so serious, by the way.

If you're Autistic, he was serious.

R slash SRS.

If you are Autistic, R slash SRS.

It's serious.

Freak out.

Scream about it.

It's so serious.

He's definitely not being serious.

No, no, it's very serious.

Please start crying about it.

What do I think of women in general?

I hate them all.

Am I a misogynist?

Yeah, I hate all.

Fuck it.

You know what I'm saying?

Who needs women?

Dude, that was really not sarcastic.

He was being actually like, no, that's what he thinks.

If you're autistic, please, please take it seriously.

Can you say

Oh my god.

Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, I'm losing my mind.

What is this?

Holy cortisol spike!

Holy cortisol spike!

How the does anyone else see this shit?

Like, am I being gaslit?

How the fuck are these real people?

This is crazy.

Am I the last sane man on earth?

Like holy cortisol spike.

Here's their adjut prop that they okay, here's an example of uh anti-war agit prop.

69 updudes.

Okay, let me sh let me compare that just to show you what their priorities are.

This is disgusting.

I want to show you this post I saw, for sure.

Okay, the anti-war agit prop that they posted got 69 updates.

Compared to the three hundred and eighty seven that transgender Stalin got.

Let's read the comments on transgender Stalin.

I think that if Stalin was born in this day and age, he would actually be like this.

You guys, okay, once if you now understand what I said, that this is like a rabbit hole.

Like, I spent like the last day looking through it and I was just like shocked.

Like, what what have is this like a second life server I s stumbled upon of like extremely delusional people?

What the fuck is this?

I try to be good faith and I try to be understanding.

But I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this is a little cray cray.

This is a little cray cray.

If Stalin were alive today, he would be at least somewhat supportive of LGBT rights.

Somewhat, if the USSR was still intact and it was thriving the way China is right now, I can't even imagine the level of social progressivism they would they would have achieved.

If Stalin was born into that, he would have been shaped by the system and and to be extremely pro-LGBT plus.

Um

I could very much try to speak reason to you and and convince you that this is delusion, but

If you believe this, what else do you believe?

You know, it's just one of those things.

You are very much.

Uh

Just not literate about history.

Um

Not only that, you just don't know what Marxism, Leninism or Marxism is.

You think that

You have this Obama notion of progress, that progress is just like all of these positive things that happen under Obama, and it's just like, Oh, we're becoming so much more loving and inclusive.

That's progress.

Like you don't actually know what m how Marxists define progress and uh

I'm trying to be charitable when I rationally explain why you're claiming this.

Like, try to give it some plausible, rational explanation.

Like, maybe there's some reasoning involved in you saying this.

But um

To be clear, uh social progressivism doesn't mean

Uh

liquefying all social norms.

That's not what it means, okay?

Um we saw what the logic of social progress in the USSR, it didn't simply correspond to Obama style, you know,

Cupcakes for everybody.

That's not what it was.

That's not what it was.

Um at all.

Okay.

And um

There is no

I do I need to be the one to say it that the the USSR

In the thirties, criminalized something very explicitly that on the books wasn't criminalized in the 20s, although it was still punished.

I won't even say that's low-hanging fruit, right?

I I'll go ahead and say this.

In the Stalin period after World War two,

Um, when the rootless cosmopolitan campaign was in full swing, Shreya Sandy, what's up?

And when the Soviet Union started to

Uh double down through the Zhdanovschina, right, on more classical kinds of cultural expression versus what they consider decadent bourgeois American culture and cosmopolitanism.

And jazz, which

was uh treated with suspicion in the USSR.

I think that you could high Stalinism, so to speak, was profoundly conservative.

Because when you have created a socialist society,

You now have established a sense of social harmony, which you are conservative with respect to.

That's why the D PRK is profoundly conservative, so is China.

They are conservative with respect to the social harmony of socialist civilization.

And when you have experience leading a society and being responsible for a society, you understand that it's no longer about your personal tastes, it's about how do we encourage healthier relationships between men and women.

Who are gonna get married and have kids and have families?

How do we encourage healthy and harmonious relations that will allow society to be cohesive and functioning?

Um

People talk about Cuba's family code or whatever, but that is not

A consequence of Stalinism and anti-revisionist Marxism-Leninism, that's a consequence of cultural detente with the US through the US-educated Mariella Castro.

And a lot of the arguments that were being made to push that law was that it would help ease sanctions on Cuba because it would rally support from the Democrats and liberals in the US.

And then, moreover, it was the most unpopular referendum in Cuba's history, by the way.

It passed, yes, but it was the most unpopular in history.

They had to go through multiple rounds and package all this other stuff alongside of it.

Among the people, it wasn't even popular.

Very much not the norm when it comes to socialist countries in history.

But

Look, I understand there are new norms that are a consequence of the internet age.

You're terminally online, I get it.

You've been on all these Tumblr sub communities, whatever.

I understand that's changed every aspect of our humanity, and there's no going back.

I understand that.

I'm not somebody who's who claims we can just return to the twentieth century, but simultaneously.

The idea that there it's impossible to rediscover

Um

The sensibilities, traditional sens, I guess I don't know what I would call them, traditional sensibilities, uh, or at least um to a continuation of the dialectic of the sexes of man and woman.

Very much it's not over.

That's what I would stress.

The dialectic is not over, it's not complete.

Um, you might want to declare it complete and say now it's the time we're going to become jellyfish and liquefier.

It's not complete, it's still ongoing.

It's it's a new age we're in, and it's a new era for sure, but um.

The dialectic goes on, you know.

It hasn't ended.

This is an extremely warped logic, and I find it worrying that 83 people even like this.

This is an extremely concerning type of logic they have, which betrays an extreme ignorance about the logic of Marxism-Leninism.

Again, these people don't know what Marxism-Leninism is.

They've watched Hakeem videos which paint the USSR in a good light, but as far as these people are concerned, they genuinely are of the belief.

That Marxism-Leninism is an extremely aggressive form of social democracy that just kind of like it's almost like if Obama was in power forever and was able to do whatever he wants at the point of a gun, that's what they think it is.

They've combined this kind of like

Uh hoi for uh notion of Soviet authoritarianism with Obama progressivism, and they think that's what it is, and it's very sad.

It's very sad.

Um

You know, communism is all about dialectics with a capital C, official communism, because it's Marxism.

So Marxism affirms a n a notion of dialectics and uh in the case of the USSR, dialectical materialism.

And you don't have the light without the dark.

You don't have a notion of a communist.

Sense of shared community and universal solidarity without a concrete community, without a concrete struggle of existence.

Socialism in one country.

That's what it was, right?

On the one hand, you can aspire toward creating this utopian community, but on the other hand you have to take responsibility for the community that already exists in some sense and just be responsible for it, for these for this material reality.

And that is what socialist construction is.

Um it's very somber.

As much as it is enthusiastic and exciting, it's very somber as well.

As much as there's a high note, there's a low note.

You know, I d these people just have a very warped view of history.

They just think it's just like Obamunism or something.

I don't know.

It's just profoundly, profoundly delusional.

Um a country that is un unstable will inevitably become more repressive.

Okay, post-war Soviet Union is an incredibly stable society.

And there are no push there is no push at this point.

Uh to change the norms of the society in this way.

I don't think it gets more stable than Brezhnev.

And under Brezhnev you have a profound social conservatism.

Eight people down duted this.

Uh, but this is true.

Why is the guy who just tells the truth being persecuted?

This is why I don't like Reddit.

Oh, it hurt your feelings.

What about whether what it shouldn't it be whether it's factually correct being updude or down dude?

Why is the guy who just got it correct being down-duded?

Let's see, so thirty people liked this.

Ten people care about the Iran war, thirty people like this.

Yeah, these are uh this is what a non-misogynist looks like.

Oh boy.

This is like a second life server.

This is really bad.

This was also shared to the red left.

Uh three hundred people updooted this very serious quote for me.

Chairman of the A C P Nosbulls.

I'm thinking ACP is a psyop.

I had the same suspicion, I did a whois on their domain name, look up the name on the registry.

This guy's an expert when it comes to computers.

This is a truly a tech guy.

He knows what he's talking about.

Guy's surfing buddies with Tulsi Gabbard and lives in Moscow.

So who is doing the psyop?

Is it the Russians or is it the US government?

I don't okay.

He isn't a hidden figure.

He served with Tulsi Gabbard.

Oh g oh my god, it's a guy speaking reason, I can't believe it.

How is he not banned yet and he got eleven updutes?

Haas is a strongman Marxist from a liberal cartoon.

He seriously says said that.

I already despised Haas, but this brings it to a whole new level.

It wonder if this is just depressing the fuck outta you that like people are this like retarded.

Um like

Okay, ones if you like, wouldn't you just say this is sarcasm if you saw it?

Like, I don't understand how someone could read this and be like, oh my god, he actually said that?

Like,

What is this?

Haas doesn't understand Marxism.

Got it.

But I'm sure you do.

You you understand sarcasm.

Um

So I'm sure you do.

Yeah.

Guys, I feel like such a victim.

Everyone should just gift subs to me because I'm such a victim.

Literally, a Afro-Asiatic Mediterranean man under assault.

I think it's because I'm Arab, but what is this?

This is racism.

When you think about it, it's kind of racist.

It's like, there's nothing I could say.

There's nothing I could say to get through to these people.

Like, I don't know what I could say.

I think it's just because I'm Arab, honestly, that they won't listen.

We seized Tanky the Deprogramme, no you didn't.

Captain, what's up?

You know what's funny?

Imagine I woke up two days ago.

I get a message that people are freaking out about A C P on Reddit, and I look to see what's going on.

Steven, what's up, man?

And it's like, I've this was my first time finding out that like what?

I don't even know.

I don't even know like anything.

I didn't okay, tanky the D program.

I know there was a D program Reddit.

I think they got banned.

So this is the new one.

Okay, I didn't even first of all, shout out to Famous Plan for even like, how did he even get to the point?

Uh

Uh, taking this over, quote unquote.

Like, that he is literally the Napoleon Bonaparte of Reddit.

It's fucking crazy.

458 votes.

We may not be able to remove the top mod, but we can show our stance.

Fuck the ACP.

Oh, it just disappeared.

We have to refresh it.

All right.

Uh four hundred and forty nine.

You know what?

It's settled.

When you think about it, because the feds can't fake that.

That's the thing.

The feds can't fake that.

This is like tr like, okay, guys, the feds are attacking us, but you know, we can all be certain that we're all good faith actors here, right?

There's no way the feds could manipulate anything.

Like, we're all so organic here, right?

There's no way.

Fuck all Nazbulls.

Um

We'll find them.

They're literally doing witch hunts about people who voted in their poll.

It's hilarious that those A C B Nazbulls tried to take over the sub, got mad when they weren't welcome.

It's literally like a specter is haunting Reddit.

Like, like, do nothing and win.

Holy shit.

Like, as chairman of the ACP, it's like, I am just so amused at this, like, fucking fan fiction we're a part of.

Um

Guys, it's a second life server.

Holy fuck.

Didn't expect to see electoralism being practiced here.

I thought you'd think that was just like a joke, right?

Down duted ten like people actually polls are not in

How am I supposed to respond to anything these people say?

It's like

Oh, whatever will we do, these fucking crazy autistic people.

Post it.

I don't want to get banned and then I won't.

If I get banned, can I still see the Reddit when they ban me?

I could still see it.

Alright, I'll just post it.

Hmm.

Yeah.

Alright, I'm gonna be banned for sure.

Ah, all right.

Back to our daily scheduled liberal posting.

Alright, this is their daily scheduled posting we disrupted with 16 updates.

I you know what?

I have an inkling suspicion that the anti-ACP hysteria on this dead subreddit.

Is a consequence of bots.

I kind of think this is bots.

I think that this is artificial and it's just not real.

I think there are some people who are highly autistic that are very invested.

But I think that the mass

Updooting and whatever.

I think that's very much Gislane Maxwell artificial shit.

I don't think it's real.

I think some of these people for sure are real.

Like, I've interacted with these people before.

Like, I think some are real, but not this many.

Not this many.

For sure, not this many.

Um because like the average post on this gets like thirty, maybe a hundred, nineteen.

But somehow, the stuff about ACP is going viral.

And it's like, that doesn't make sense.

That doesn't make sense.

Uh this is a few people.

This is not a lot of people.

This is a few people.

I think maximum there there's probably a hundred people.

Haas has always been this way a personal recollection.

Oh

I feel uh for I run the Red Scare TV YouTube channel.

I've known Haas for a while.

I remember him commenting on my channel.

Uh he'd pop out into the Google Hangouts, radical left YouTubers of the time.

would congregate in.

I I don't think I've ever done that.

Did I ever do that?

This is like skits of what?

Google Hangouts?

M I think this was uh maybe impersonation.

I don't know.

Guys, have I ever used Google Hangouts?

I don't remember using Google Hangouts.

He's always been interested in synthesis to some degree.

Um

And it's funny because it's like, really, no, it's it's actually not true.

Um, if you get all the patriotism stuff is just Orthodox ML stuff.

Uh, what I've shown a peculiar interest in is generally ar arriving at the concrete of communism.

And at this point, I consider the concrete of communism a kind of um

Rediscovering like nomadic tribalism and the primordial foundations of a nation from scratch, creating a new nation, you know?

And I I'm not I find nationalism very boring.

I d I don't care about the nation states and stuff, right?

I've always been interested in the dark side of communism and the concrete of communism.

Yes, that much I can be guilty of.

Always edgy and a bit extreme in temperament.

Uh uh fair.

He is always brushed off and laughed at, not seen as any serious theoretical person.

Uh that's true, but the people who were brushing me off were all Democrats and liberals.

Um always kicked from Google Hangouts.

I I don't know where this Google Hangouts thing is coming from.

Uh it was genuinely seen as somebody who was aiming to change his ideas who would probably leave the movement at some point and lose interest in politics altogether, as did a lot of people.

Around that time there were a lot of I don't think this was me.

This was probably some random like Armenian guy who looks like me or something.

Like I don't use I've never used Google Hangouts.

I remember the Discord calls on Twitch that we would join the political people and try to debate them.

I don't remember hanging out on Google Hangouts with any of these people.

Um he's just narcissistic and naive to a high degree, fragile ego and such.

His presence could be astroturfed, but I I dou I doubt he's on any uh payroll.

People like Haas.

Uh okay, well yeah, I didn't I wasn't

Okay.

Well, who is this guy?

I remember like trolling first of all, where's the dead giveaway?

Uh what it did he give a date for when this was?

Yeah, there's no Google Hangouts.

This is ridiculous.

This type of thing only works in one of three ways.

Yeah, these people think Jackson is a a fed, um, because he's loved by Arab uncs and not teenage white people, so that must mean nobody likes him.

Mm.

Wait, what is the there are similar well?

So, what's your argument?

Why would feds be pushing this?

Why would they risk revitalizing communism if it's a dead movement?

If it's a dead movement, like what's I don't understand what the point of pretending to be a communist is now.

I don't understand.

Like, what are we hijacking?

Your furry safe space?

What are we hijacking?

There's nothing.

What do we?

I don't know.

This is a stupid argument.

Um

I don't know who this person is.

Their name sounds vaguely familiar, but the Google Hangouts thing is just a dead giveaway of like something they're making up.

Yeah.

Okay.

Six hundred and eighty eight upvotes.

Okay, um

Okay.

Do I need to say this?

If you go to Donbass and you tell veterans of the Red Army or their descendants that

that the Soviet Red Army

Was fighting and dying for trans rights, they would take a gun and shoot you in the head.

And I'm not even kidding, they would kill you.

And I'm not even kidding, they would genuinely shoot you.

If you pushed it as aggressively as you're pushing it here and saying insisting on, like they would see it as sacrilege.

Like you're disrespecting the Red Army.

That's how they would see it.

They would put a bullet in your head and kill you.

So, I'm glad you could say this in America or whatever, but please do not go to the Wild West, some law, you know, place where there's relative lawlessness in the ex-USSR.

Don't go to Transnistria.

Don't go to any place where people could get away with beating the shit out of you for saying this, 'cause they would.

I'm not I would not.

I'm genuinely curious.

Like, I

I think you're misled and I think this is definitely wrong, but it's just funny because in the actual ex USSR there would be a violent response to this association you're trying to create by the people who live there.

And um

That's why you're saying it in some, you know, basement uh on the internet or whatever, uh uh living in America or some Western country.

But in the USSR you couldn't get away with former USSR, they wouldn't let you say this shit.

Somebody would either kill you or beat the shit out of you for saying this.

And, um,.

I don't what I would like to say is why are your priorities here?

Um, the Iran war is happening, so why are trans transphobia?

We're gonna LARP.

We're gonna pretend that the Soviet Red Army was fighting for trans rights or whatever.

Um

Can you fight for the rights of Iranian schoolgirls in America though?

Can you at least do that in your own country a little bit?

And if you were to commit to doing that, you'd probably have to work with organizations that you don't agree with on trans rights.

Whatever that means to you, by the way.

Uh i i i if it really matters, trans people are also confirmed as a factual and real occurrence.

Okay, better to say trans liberation.

Got it.

They keep calling us a psyop.

They keep like trying to like fedjacket us.

I'm just, I don't understand.

How to respond.

It's like, what do you want me to say?

You you you genuinely think that

The feds are interested in divorcing Marxism-Leninism.

From the LGBT movement.

Yeah, communism is just going to be so thriving if it's just associated with um

A certain sexual lifestyle or something, right?

I just don't understand this.

It's just so exhausting.

It's just tiring.

I don't know what to say.

It's just tiring.

Yeah, it's this is a psyop.

This is of Cointel Pro.

This is like the feds.

This is the CIA.

All right.

I don't know what that is.

Like, how do you even argue?

I feel like you talk to these people in person, they'll be like, I am not going to talk to you, you bigot.

And they're just like, they get violent.

Like, they couldn't even have a conversation with you.

They can't, like, you can't speak reason to them.

How do you speak reason to these people?

How do you speak reason to these people, genuinely?

Everybody should drop 20 subs that I had to go through that.

I'm not even kidding.

Like

How tiring that was is fucking crazy.

By the way, if someone could make this into a VOD for YouTube, that'd be sick.

That'd be great.

That'd be wonderful.

The sec that's not true, they didn't boo um the second I spoke.

They started booing when I mentioned Jackson at the end of my speech.

It was like people yelling in the back.

Um nobody in real life, nobody cares about this shit.

I'm gonna just search ACP on Reddit and like look at stuff.

Grandma, what's up?

Hmm.

Yo!

Ty with the 10.

Thank you so much.

Okay, apparently there's a trans D program.

Alright.

Got it.

Uh what's the deal with the ACP?

Um the only part I'd like to add is that ACP consistently has more money and resources than other left communist groups of similar size.

I mean a lot more.

Uh this isn't true.

We just are more efficient about uh how we manage our resources, meaning we decentralize it.

Those other organizations will centralize all resources in the hands of the center and make it hard to actually do stuff, whereas ACP people just do everything out of their own pocket.

Um so that's the secret.

That's the secret sauce behind and I I have no problem sharing the secret sauce because uh what do I have to lose from more organizations learning how to fucking get their shit together?

When you decentralize your financial resources, you

You allow activity to happen more rapidly and more efficiently, and it just works way better, right?

We're applying Deng Xiaoping theory to managing the financial resources of a Communist Party, I guess.

When you centralize it all in one big pile, it just becomes bureaucracy.

You can't do anything.

Just think about a given post you saw.

Okay, I wanna run this hypothetical.

Think about a given post you saw from ACP.

Oh, there's a lot of resour okay, camera equipment and the cost of the activity itself.

And try to think about how much that costs in addition to everyone who's there bringing their stuff, bringing so people who are professional photographers that joined our party, they're k for example, in Michigan, I c I don't know if I he wants me to say his name.

Uh one of our best comrades who's in the CC from Michigan, the Michigan CC rep, he's a professional videographer and photographer.

So

He has camera equipment that he has because of his job, and he brings that when he's filming ACP stuff.

So whenever people join our party, they're bringing all the resources and stuff they already have, the skills they have, and the money they have.

And instead of just throwing all their money in a center and having us bureaucratically decide what to do with it.

People just uh fund it out of fund their activities out of pocket.

So we basically have it decentralized.

And I think either I feel like people find that hard to believe because they're like, why would people spend money on doing this shit when they're not getting paid for it?

And the answer is that people have discovered a type of

thing they care about more than money, you know?

It's just hard to believe.

You have any example of them having more money?

N no response to that, I guess.

We don't have more money.

The CPUSA has 50 million in assets, and the PSL.

Is backed by Roy Singham, a billionaire, who's given them checks of twelve million dollars.

We've never seen any money like that in our lives.

This is a blatant lie.

This is a stupid lie.

Um

Have been able to go to places that normally require months of interviews and planning where?

That's not true.

You don't have you don't have to fucking have months of interviews and planning with the State Department to travel places.

That's fucking not true.

Russian money is a thing.

If the Russian money influence is obviously true, let people know, alright?

You people just don't know how anything works in the real world.

If we were getting Russian money we would have gotten prosecuted for it.

Uh you can't exactly hide that.

Strocerytes.

Got it.

I just, guys, you know what?

The burden is no longer on me to deal with this shit.

That's what I'll say.

If you have a fucking problem with this shit, you deal with it.

I just don't care.

I don't give a fuck.

I just don't care.

Like, I can't pretend like I care.

I really can't.

I can't pretend like I care.

I can't pretend like I give a fuck when I don't.

I just don't care about what Redditors think.

They keep calling us Nazis and Nazbulls and shit.

It's fucking crazy.

Um

Go ahead and cancel me.

Fuck, ones if my mic still works.

Shit.

I bet it just fucked up because of that.

Alright.

Isn't it crazy that this is what people are focusing on in the middle of this apocalypse?

Isn't it crazy?

Isn't it crazy with the Iran War this is what people care about?

Like what the fuck?

Okay, there's another thing I wanted to respond to.

I said, and it's from Captive Retard.

Uh let's see let's see let's see let's see let's see let's see

Uh, he got spammed.

Thunder spam.

So fun.

Alright, Captive Dreamer said some stupid shit.

Um find it.

Alright, so what I said is that the idea that religious belief inherently pacifies the masses into complacency has been discredited by history.

Islamic resistance fighters are battling the world capital's empire directly while classical European style atheists leftists are sitting on their ass in some cafe.

Which is very much true because remember in my YouTube lecture where I talked about the shattering of

The mental division of labor, well, part of that shattering uh increase of alienation is that the dimension of the sacred was lost from Marxism.

And Marxism and Bolshevism specifically was this kind of life or death sacred struggle.

And over time, with the increase in the specialization of labor, mental labor, Marxist atheism became associated with this toothless

Mm secularism, which is very different.

Look at how Simon Balsack Seabag

Uh Tea Bag Montefer talks about Stalin and Zerzinski.

Stalin's order of sword bearers resembled the Templars or even the theocracy of Iranian Ayatollahs more than any traditional secular movement.

They would die and kill for their faith in the inevitable progress toward human betterment, with a fervor seen only in the religious slaughters and martyrdoms of the Middle Ages in the Middle East.

That's not entirely wrong.

Žižek even wrote about this in Defense of Lost Causes.

And this dimension has been lost from the revolutionary tradition in Marxism.

It's been lost.

And it was taken up again by revolutionary Iran and Islam.

So captive dreamer as a retard he is.

He goes Marks was wrong.

JC with the five.

And uh, you know, I was gonna respond to it, but then he he got put in the spam folder like a little bitch he is, so I'm not gonna even respond uh on Twitter.

But I'll respond through my stream for sure.

Uh no, Marx wasn't wrong actually, because the famous quote by Marx that says religion is the opium of the masses was interpreted secondarily by Midwits to mean that religious belief inherently pacifies people.

But what Marx was actually saying was that

The

German criticism of religion by the young Hegelians and other kind of humanistic philosophers, Feuerbach and so on and so on, that they were getting things backwards when it comes to their understanding of religion and its role.

They identified religion as the source of man's alienation from his own existence.

And what Marx was saying was that religion is is actually the most authentic reflection of man's existential position in the world, and that insofar as man dwells in a world of religious alienation, it's because it reflects a materially alienated world.

And what that basically means is that for Marx

Religion has a status more authentic than philosophy and theory.

Religion isn't a consequence of philosophical ignorance or a lack of philosophical sophistication.

It very much authentically reflects man's existential position with respect to the world.

And that was Marx's position.

And that's why Marx's position was consistent with how Marx and Engels identified throughout history the role that religions played in revolutionary uh upheavals throughout history, including early Christianity.

Now, does that mean Marx was pro-religion?

No.

Marx and Engels speculated.

That the struggle of the proletariat would basically um

affect the conditions of the dissolution of religion altogether.

Uh through the intensity of the struggle itself, it would give rise to a different type of consciousness that reflects a different material relation to the world.

And um

They kind of w were not wrong.

In that, because the way in which they uh expected religion to be dissolved, much like their understanding of how capitalism would eventually be dissolved.

Was not a uh adoption of this kind of liberal cosmopolitan secularism and toothless atheism, but a submersion of all of the content of religion, the martyrdom, sacrifice, the breadth and weight of its meaningfulness to live and die for it and so on and so on.

That would be submerged in the real material conditions of struggle and be reflected in it.

So the dissolution of religion for them doesn't take the form

Of secularism and this kind of uh

You know, uh, wimpy ni uh atheism of intellectuals and cosmopolitans because religion existentially reflects the most authentic.

Relate, you know, expression of man's relation to the world.

So the dissolution of religion.

Will will not take the form of just ignoring that expression altogether and and and kind of alienating ourselves from it in the way that Reddit atheists do.

That's why even Marxist religious sorry, Marxist revolutionary struggle is mired in a religious aroma, religious vocabulary, religious language, religious kind of feeling.

And according to traditional Marxist theory, this is partaking in the process of the dissolution of religion.

Now how I think we can go come full circle is, you know what, I agree with Marx on his view of religion.

The dissolution of religion is good insofar as

Religion ceases to be a distinct part of the division of labor.

All reality

Reacquires a sacred and holy status.

And no longer do we just say this is religion and this is politics.

And everything kind of reintegrates into one reality.

That's the Marxist vision of the dissolution of religion.

Not the erasure and liquidation of the sacred and the religious in favor of some kind of atheistic conceit, but a process of the integration of the sacred and of what would otherwise be alienated from reality as religion into the integral totality of humanity's world.

So in this sense, actually Marx and Engels were more jihadi than Imam Khomeini.

Because Imam Khomeini at least, although he had this communistic, utopian, communistic vision of an Islamic republic where religion is reintegrated in the political, Imam Khomeini did not go so far as to say religion must fully be absorbed and integrated into the complete integral totality of man's existence in history.

And harmoniously, kind of, every aspect of the sacred must re be reflected in science and art and so on, in everything, right?

So Marxism has a different relationship to religiosity and the sacred than um

than these European secular pussies

Sitting sitting on their ass in a fucking cafe, oh, God's not real, I can watch pornography.

That's their fucking view of religion.

That's not the Marxist view of religion.

The Marxist view of religion is not secularism.

Definitely not secular.

What Simon Teabag, Seabag, Halo 3 Teabagging, whatever his name is, what he said about Stalin, it's kind of true.

Like, he was like a Knights Templar or an Ayatollah.

He wasn't some fucking pussy, wimpy, secular bitch.

Stalin was ready to die for the cause.

It was world, it was the everything.

It was an ontological struggle worthy of all of the kind of martyrdom and fanaticism of the upheavals in the Middle Ages and the Middle East, in his words, right?

So Marxism is definitely not a liquidation of religion.

Insofar as Marxism regards religion as a type of alienation, it regards the very division between religion and the world as what must be.

Uh overcome.

A total integration of the sacred.

With the secular.

And this is why people who lived in the ex-USSR will say something.

This way, this was an irreligious.

Material Path to God

We were following all the Christian values, we were living and breathing a sacred air.

and we were doing it in our lives, in our practice, in our values.

There was no need for the religion, because we were already dwelling in the kingdom of heaven, in some sense.

That's what we believe.

We don't believe in liquidating religion.

We don't believe in disrespecting religion.

We don't believe in uh sacrilege and defiling and uh nihilistically kind of liquidating and treating as a tri trivial and

Mm, small thing.

No, we take religion very seriously and uh we give rel religious sacred beliefs of the people an immense degree of importance and and respect.

But no one believes me when I say this, and they think I'm simply some kind of simple atheist, right?

So I don't know what to say.

Mm-hmm.

How are Muslims treated in the USSR?

Um

I think the USSR very much

Uh

did not recognize Islamic civilization at all.

Uh and that was a limitation.

But that wasn't a consequence of being anti-Muslim, it was a consequence of a lack of recognition and a lack of understanding.

Um

Stalin or Laud Sharia, oh, yeah, yeah, that's true, during the Civil War and so on.

But let's be realistic, during the days of the USSR.

Yes, Islam was allowed.

Yes, I'm not saying Muslims were being suppressed, and that's not true, they weren't.

But um there was definitely uh a lack of institutional adaptation to Central Asia.

Um

That could have been, you know?

And this led to some blind spots for sure.

That there's a reason the war in Afghanistan failed.

And it's just like the blindness of the USSR in the China to China, right?

It's the same.

But the USSR was was didn't persecute or oppress Muslims.

It didn't.

But uh

It also didn't necessarily uh know how to recognize Islam.

But it was open there.

It's not it wasn't totalitarian society like they claim.

It wasn't totalitarian.

Meaning there were uh irreligious, holy figures, Muslim Imams and and so on, and they were part of civil society and they they were tolerated and accepted and it wasn't as people claim today.

I wouldn't I would say definitely not anti Muslim, but uh just kind of um open minded but not quite understanding, I would say.

How about Hojo with his Bektashi background?

With his complete liquidation of religion.

Was the material essence of Islam absorbed?

I think so in Albania, yes.

I think the moral strength of Albania's communism under Hoxha was a reflection of his Bektashi Sufi background.

And that's w that was the source of the moral intensity of Hoxha's anti-revisionism, for sure.

Hoja had a natural affinity and a natural sympathy with the cause of the people in the Middle East, of both the Arabs and of Iran after the Iranian Revolution.

He congratulated the Iranian people and

was by no means uh some kind of dogmatist who says, Oh, this is not true socialism.

I mean, no, he he had a natural sympathy with the struggle of the people in the Middle East.

And d i did he totally liquidate religion?

Yes.

But um it's okay because part of true authentic fulfillment of religion is the uh atheism, real atheism.

And there's a good Heideggerian argument for the sacred nature of true atheism.

Because we cannot treat atheism is the only way to worship God because only atheism recognizes that God is too great to be a being.

Only atheism refuses to recognize that God could be contained within a presence, and therefore atheism is the true recognition of God.

Or at least a moment in the process of um

true understanding and belief in the divine.

No master, no, this is kind of a gay anarchist, you know.

Uh you know, nonsense.

I am the total opposite of that.

I absolutely believe in both master and divine.

Uh you know,

Why was slavery so strange?

Western slavery, Greek slavery, for example.

People tend to think: okay, first we are free men, and then.

The Greeks created slavery.

Not quite.

Not quite.

First, we are not free men.

First, we are all slaves to the society.

We are slaves to an existence.

And everyone kind of recognizes

The universal slavery of man

to uh necessity.

And what the Greeks invented is not the slavery.

What they invented, the worst crime they created is the freedom, not the slavery.

The crime of the Greeks was creating freedom, not slavery.

The notion that there could be an exception.

uh that is not fully in submission to God.

This is a the space that opened up for Iblis and a Luciferian strain and tendency throughout history.

That's my very harsh and brutal.

Diagnosis of the source of evil throughout history.

What makes slavery so evil and disgusting is not the notion of uh man fully subordinated to moral necessity and and so on.

What makes it abominable is the idea that you

Are owned and are the property of some free subjective agent.

That's what makes it disgusting.

When you think about it, the crime is the fact that someone who is free in the first place.

Um

That freedom is the source of evil.

The word Islam, it means submission.

So I think about these things a little different than what our common sense would would have us

Someone make a VOD of the Reddit thing though, for sure.

Alright guys, uh hold on.

Excellent.

Okay guys, I hope you had a good stream.

I uh hope you had a good time.

I'm gonna

I'm gonna go to bed now.

I'm

Quite exhausted.

See you guys Thursday.

Bye-bye.
