um
I have had the privilege of doing a
little bit of thinking today just a
little bit right I've been caught and so
caught up and still am but today I had
about an hour or two words to spare to
think
and
I want to share my thoughts with you
I want to share my thoughts with you
because I've had a lot to think about
today
and
it's Dawning upon me that I don't ever
really think I've had this conversation
so we're gonna have it like now right
today
um
first of all
I have a question right it's a
rhetorical question uh which I already
know the answer to
I'm gonna ask it anyway
why are you guys here
it's a question
a streamer should never ask Their
audience but I'm gonna ask it to you
guys why are you here
why are you here why more broadly do you
even care about politics is a better
question
again this is a career suicide question
to pill you on this right because you
don't want to pill
your audience and the people who support
you with this hard introspection why
would you want to do that it'll
complicate things right well I'm going
to do it anyway
because I think the community will be
better off for it if you could just sit
for a moment and reflect on exactly what
brought you from being a person
who cares about sports and
um Doritos to someone who cares about
politics why do you give a fuck
now I'm gonna give you answers that I
find unacceptable at priori
thank you so much Dimitri on shout out
demetrion who's actually a giga chat in
real life you guys didn't know that
so now let it be known
but as I was saying what makes you
someone who goes from eating Doritos and
playing video games to someone who gives
a shit about politics and quit the
answer that I'll find uh unacceptable
is well I just care about my society and
it's my civic responsibility so when you
tell me things like that
you're telling me you were a teacher's
pet in school the reason I always bring
up high school so fucking much is
because it tells you everything you need
to fucking know about a person's
character even into adulthood so when
you tell me some shit like well it's my
responsibility you are a fucking narc
you're a teacher's pet
and I immediately dismiss you I don't
take you fucking seriously I think
you're an ugly retard if you give me
that kind of answer
and you're also wrong your teacher's pet
who is in your student council in high
school and you just cared about see
you're you're telling me that you were
the type of person that liked to Snoop
in other people's fucking business
because you were so narcissistic you
could not draw the distinction between
the way the world should be and your own
fucking personal sense of self that's
the type of person you're telling me you
are so I find that answer fucking
unacceptable if you're someone who's
calling themselves a communist
I find it unlikely that's your origin
story I just do
I find it profoundly unlikely
today I was a little bit depressed and
I'm gonna tell you why
I was a little bit depressed because I
was thinking about the fact
um well I was thinking about
people who I Revere almost on a
religious level like Lenin and Stalin
and I was thinking of them and thinking
about them
and I was kind of telling myself
something that I found pretty sad which
is that I can't really look
at
art in dedication to them in the same
way anymore I can't look at paintings of
Lenin I can't listen to songs about
Stalin and Lenin I can't you know
appreciate Soviet Aesthetics I can't do
these things anymore it's like every
time I do it
somehow I can't help but think about the
way in which these figures and communism
as a whole in general is understood and
made sensible
to the majority of people on a social
level and that's what ruins it for me
I can't help but think about these
vicious cunts on Twitter and these IRL
leftists and the type of psychological
disposition that these people have in
America and it's very black pilling
and it starts to make me think
you know I always have to pose this
question because I am a person who
doubts themselves a lot
am I just a fucking crazy guy
why am I the only fucking person
why I know I'm not the only person but
why does it feel like I'm the only
fucking person in the west who feels
this way about the entire history of
Communism and it's the significance of
Marxism why am I the only one who senses
it in this way and understands it in
this way why am I the only fucking
person who does that I mean so much so
to the point where self-proclaimed
Communists and marxists literally go to
bed telling themselves that I'm faking
it and I'm secretly a larusite or I'm
secretly some kind of Nazi or something
else no believe it or not
I am actually a I mean I I've always
believed in communism I've always
believed in this history all of the
stories of the October I mean that I
believe all of that right
but the way these things are understood
today right when I see the tweet on
Twitter that gets the most likes
anniversary of the October Revolution
you know it gets 10 000 likes and it's
sharing photos I cringe
I cringe really fucking hard
I hate the majority of self-proclaimed
Communists I really not just ones in
America not even just ones in Europe
even on an international level I'm
starting to fucking hate them the only
exception I can think of
like unequivocally is the Communist
Party of the Russian Federation
and the Communist Party of China which
is I mean that's too broad of a
statement anyway the Communist Party of
China's got like 90 million people but
besides them I I can very clearly see
that the Indian left and the Indian
Communists left dominates the
international Communists left
and I fucking hate them
I actually fucking hate them I hate
Indian leftist communists
I can't fucking stand them
and maybe I'm putting too much blame on
them
maybe I'm looking for a scapegoat
but who has made communism so ugly and
so despicable
and so sickening to my stock to your
stomach who has made it this way who has
made it
so that
there's just this profound nihilism
behind the imagery of Communism where
nobody even believes it anymore it's
just the kind of fucking meme right they
see people they see the figures they see
the image of Lenin and Stalin and even
Mao as a utility as a thing to use
with which to express their resentments
and with which to kind of achieve some
other goal
I just feel like no one appreciates the
beauty of what Lenin did nobody
appreciates the beauty of what Stalin
did and its World historical
and even ontological significance that
is very much something sacred right
at the highest level of religiosity it
is something sacred the history of
Communism to me
but the self-proclaimed communism I mean
it's just that's not the case right they
know they don't really believe in it in
the sense of
like they don't believe in the story
they don't believe this is a real story
like in the real right
they have this disgusting and Despicable
aesthetic and view that I am someone
who's resentful against the world I hate
my mom in particular I'm more on that
later and my dad and Lenin
Avenged me in the past and I I you know
he he was my outlet of my personal my
own personal rage you know that
disgusting fat bitch whale
chair lady on Twitter for example always
like talks about how she loves the idea
of killing children and and she sees the
Bolsheviks when they killed the Romanoff
family like for her that's like her
revenge she just looks at children and
she just wants them dead she's like oh
the Bolsheviks did it for me and they
don't there's no love there's no
appreciation for the beauty of what
happened
just at the level of the story of
Communism there's no understanding right
it becomes very clear what people like
Lenin meant by philistinism right
philistinism for Lenin
means an inability to perceive the
deeper Harmony and beauty of the world
well I'll tell you what these Communists
that you have I'm not even just talking
about the American Western ones but even
on an international level have a butt
ugly view of reality and the world an
incomplete one knowingly and in all
their corruption and filth
they have no fucking problem with that
they know that when they talk about
Marxism they don't actually believe in
it as an all-encompassing and like
omniscient
view of the world that is real and it's
true right for them it's just the kind
of signifier of social status
and your place and what social groups
you are and then moreover it's a it's a
utility with which to express and
economize personal resentments and
personal forms of suffering oh I'm in
debt and I have to work at Starbucks I
suffer more than you oh I'm a trans
black person I suffer more than you oh I
suffer more than you and then they use
Theory as a kind of Encyclopedia with
which they kind of
create this economy of like oh are you a
bad morally bad person are you a morally
bad person are you suffering enough are
you privileged enough how do we relate
to each other and all of these extremely
like pathological personal psychological
problems they're using this political
language as an outlet for it and it just
sickens to me it sickens me to my
fucking stomach
I just kind of feel like I'm the only
person
in America who actually believes in
communism
and that begs the question to me is this
like am I just a fucking crazy person
right
is it just Insanity am I just fucking
crazy or something right
and I know there's you guys and there's
the infrared Community you guys seem to
understand
but the truth the sad truth is that
look you're already starting to see it
on Twitter
the infrared Community needs a leader
and I am that leader or the showrunners
are that leader right
but as soon as things I mean
there's I always see so much potentials
for splinters and so much potentials for
factionalism and people just not fucking
understanding it
and deciding to be content with their
inability to understand
a lot of people are in infrared not
because they actually understand what
I'm saying but because they're
superimposing their own you know world
view and their own shit on it in their
own way and then like there's so much
potential for like factionalism and
splits to happen when people realize you
were wrong about this whole thing right
this is not what you thought it was
and I'm not necessarily trying to blame
people for that maybe it's Human Nature
but I'm trying to give expression to a
feeling that I have which is one of
profound loneliness
I mean no in all seriousness
um
I don't really think there's anyone I
could say like you fully understand this
you know what I mean besides other
showrunners
in terms of
when I say the aesthetic I mean the
sense like
you don't see the the whole exactly
right
there's always a lack of understanding
somewhere
and to me that makes me you know always
makes me try and kind of doubt myself
like am I just fucking crazy because the
biggest disappointment to me is that
like
nobody all of the people who are repping
communism as an ideology and they're
repping the hammer and sickle and the
imagery Soviet imagery and the image of
Lenin and Stalin in the name of Lenin
and Stalin and the way they do it
sickens me to my fucking stomach
and it's like nobody else appreciates
this history nobody else does in the way
that I do right for everyone everyone
else just seems cynical about it right
they just see it as a a bludgeoning tool
to get over their own personal
resentments they don't actually believe
that this speaks to Something About You
Know The Human Condition and spirit and
their sense of meaning in the world they
don't see it as something sacred
look at Hakeem look at these fucking
people right
now you can kind of isolate that there's
a network of these people like cold
sorry uh swamp communist is one of the
big ones he's got like one of the
biggest followers on Twitter who's up
this alley you go pink and Hakeem and
these kinds of people who have defamed
and just like
absolutely defiled the image of Marxism
leninism in the West
but the truth is is that like you find
the views of those people very widely
held and reflected among Indian
Communists now why am I picking on
Indian Communists well because India has
probably the largest communist movement
in the world that's not in power right
now correct me if I'm wrong about that
because it's the second most populous
country in the world and it has somewhat
of a history of this thing India
probably has the largest
non-governing Communists left besides
Russia maybe it might be a tie but India
has over a billion people
and to me I see
I just feel like the center of Filth and
degeneracy and Corruption more
importantly Corruption of international
communism isn't even in the West
could please correct me if I'm wrong I
feel like it's in India right I really
have a strong feeling that the
corruption of international communism is
centered in India not even in the West
but please correct me if I'm wrong it's
just such a strong feeling that I have
based on my experience thanks so much
Alexander Magik communism is the only
way traditional communism is the only
real communism absolutely thank you so
much Alexander I think there's a few
reasons why I might have this impression
and one of them lies in the fact
that the Communists left in India is
probably the largest institutionally
maybe besides the Communist Party of the
Russian Federation
the second reason is because the Indian
Communists left is English speaking so
it participates internationally and in
the international communist discourse to
a far greater degree than the Russian or
even the Latin American which which
itself is a horrific left
does Western leftism trickle into India
yeah it's a very like it seems like they
interface very well it's not just Vijay
prashad you guys would be surprised how
much people like Hakeem and Hugo pink
have currency in India
in my experience you'd be surprised how
many fucking Indian Communists literally
living in India
are like my like my one of some of my
biggest Ops and biggest fucking enemies
so you explain that to me
right it's something I just fucking
notice
it's the legacy of Soviet revisionism
right because outside the Soviet Union
in the Communist Bloc I think India had
the strongest one any thoughts on the
Knox Elite thank you Lionel I probably
sympathize with them the most if I'm
being honest
The Mao is I simply sympathize with the
most in India
it's the Soviet revisionist Social
Democratic Communist party they have
that I think is the center of a lot of
corruption and evil International
communism
but maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm wrong it's
just am I just schizophrenic this
intuition that I have and this like
relative experience that I have
I could be wrong I'm just saying
there's a big difference between the
different communist groups in India I
know but I'm talking about the one that
is most friendly with the Western left
which does exist
there are great Communists in corella
I don't know anything about Corella
right I just know about
I just know about what I've seen
anyway
I don't
aren't Arab countries bad too and Iran
they're like non-existent the reason I'm
not mentioning other countries is
because India has a very strong
communist movement and socialist
Movement Like an extremely strong one
probably the biggest in the entire world
that's not in power
that's why I'm I'm picking on India not
for any other reason
it's literally just for that reason
and I'm not picking on India just the
communist movement there
which is I am isn't it aligned with the
uh
the demo the liberal Democrats over
there I'm not sure
yeah Paul moron that's another one Paul
moron
so you see it's like there's this
network of people
who have an extremely hideous
understanding of Communism and Marxism
which I quite honestly depresses me not
just because they exist but because I
just it just seems like they're all like
that
like they have hegemony over what
communism means right now on an
international level
and it's very easy for me to understand
why so many different types of people
hate communism right now because of it
right
thank you so much our will sounds like
some transatlantic deep State stuff stay
strong
yeah yes being born in a non-western
country does not make you based look at
Luna oi and look at fucking Hakeem look
at Hugo pink they don't even live in
America at all
a lot of this filth and sickness
is international let's just own up to
the fucking truth stop fucking
pretending it's just an American problem
it's not
it's part it's an American Empire
problem sure but a lot of these colonies
of the American Empire it's produced a
lot of cocksuckers who have gotten used
to being the bitches of America's Empire
and
the bitches of America's establishment
like Hakeem and Hugo pink
you know there's there's the saying it's
always the viceroys in the colony who
are the most vicious cunts when you have
a colonial Empire the native population
is not that bad
but the colonial the the elites of the
colonial system abroad are always the
most vicious disgusting cunts that's why
in our stomach we Americans cannot stand
Europe's intellectual Elite we fucking
hate them we hate the European ruling
class because they are
the beneficiaries of the American
International Empire
and they're the most vicious Defenders
of it
right they're the avant-garde of the
American Empire on a cultural level on a
political level on an ideological level
and this holds true for a lot of third
world countries as well these are
vicious vicious cunts they're the enemy
of mankind or the vicious enemies of
their own people
but they're also enemies of us
and the American people just like our
Empire is
to continue what I was talking about
though
I
think there's something extremely
perverse about mainstream Marxism
leninism even on an international level
where for them
it is this kind of like
mascot of social democracy Lenin's image
his face
everything you think of in your brain
neurologically on a physical
neurological level every unconscious
Association that comes to your head when
it comes to Communism
is just right now a mascot of
international social democracy
and so how to actually appreciate
communism on a like an existential level
on that fucking level
nobody seems interested in that
right
and that's why it's very frustrating for
me
I don't have comrades on an
international level I don't and then the
worst part is that people who can
perceive that problem end up just
becoming dogmatic about different
ideologies throwing the baby out with
the bath water that's how a lot of
people become ex-communists and start to
adopt these other syncretic ideologies
and you know alternatives
which are a Road to Nowhere right
I just think it's a big problem
there are no comrades
we don't have comrades we don't I mean
the Communist Party of the Russian
Federation that's an obvious one right
but there is an international struggle
for the soul of Communism going on right
now it's a struggle for the soul of
communism
and these Social Democratic cocksuckers
are winning they're winning in terms of
hegemony
how about Chinese Communists thankfully
because the Communist Party of China is
in power they are isolated from this
problem they have nothing to do with it
because they're already in power they
have their own institutions and their
own reality
like their own movement they they're
fine that
they're they're completely disconnected
from this
it's pretty it's pretty um disheartening
and depressing
like I know this is a superficial way of
looking at things like when I go on
Twitter and I see this post of like
Communists in
Communists in um some random third world
country are protesting right now and
they're like sharing the pictures of
them and it gets like 5 000 likes I'm
cringing out so fucking hard
I'm cringing out at this specific
aestheticization that's going on
which
just it just feels like it's just this
kind of
it's experienced and sensed by these
people it's like a triumphant and
orgasmic reveling in liberalism and
social democracy but to even a more
extreme way right
I just I can't get the image out of my
fucking head of some and this is deep
misogyny I have
for in relation to International
communism some fucking bitch from
Brooklyn wearing glasses who's just like
marching right this is what I think of I
just when they when they when they try
to connote the militancy of Communism I
just think of some stupid bitch living
in Brooklyn who's wearing glasses like
militantly Marching for our rights
you are just an angry bitch you're not a
communist you're an angry bitch because
you're ugly and you're you got rejected
in your life
and you're a fucking resentful bitch who
was raised as a princess and you didn't
get what you wanted in life so you
decided to become a communism as an
outlet for your own fucking personal
psychological Grievances and this is the
actual conversation I wanted to get to
and have today which I think is probably
going to be the toughest one of all and
it's going to require a lot of
introspection even on your guys's part I
mean I've spent my life doing this right
I just feel like other people haven't
let's settle something okay
politics and ideology as it stands
is just an outlet for your psychological
problems it has nothing to do with any
movement
I need I need to strongly strongly
emphasize this because a lot of people
seem to not understand this I need to
strongly emphasize the fact that
whatever ideology you think you have
whatever politics you think you have
adopted
that is just a
way in which you are trying to resolve
deep psychological
psychopersonal problems
and it has nothing to do with any
movement there's no communist movement
so don't worry about that it has nothing
to do with any movement it has nothing
to do with any social cause it has
nothing to do with anything going on in
reality you are using this symbolism and
this ideology
and and this um history and these
stories as a way to resolve your own
personal psychological problems there is
no discourse there is no hey what should
we be doing right now Hayes
hey Hayes what's the plan
what should we do
how should we go forward
how should we
um continue doing what we're doing oh
how are we going to overthrow the the
the state what's how do we do the
revolution Haze what's square one square
one is the fact that you don't give a
fuck about any of this
I promise you you don't
for some reason and I actually we're
going to explore the various reasons
this is going to be a very
psychologically heavy stream
but you have adopted this idea of
Communism as a way to cope
with very personal problems in your life
now let's just be honest about something
how many of you guys
can correlate the time in which you
became interested in communist ideas
with problems going with sorry with
problems happening at the family level
at your household when you were raised
in your household
and you went through some kind of
problem
let's start with that
how many of you
became interested in communist ideology
because of problems you experienced
at the household level
there are two types of people I've ever
seen who are calling themselves
Communists running around calling
themselves Communists only two and if
you're an exception to this I want you
to tell your story because I'm actually
just interested
one is someone who had problems with
their family somehow along the way
and the other
is someone who was born in like a family
a communist family
now you guys
are probably different because this is
my community after all okay
I can guarantee you you're gonna look at
90 of Communists outside of this
community it's because of
family problems
Dugan said something which was pretty
um interesting
and I've I've actually observed this and
noticed this although it doesn't apply
to me and I'll for reasons I'll explain
it doesn't apply to me
um but I have observed it in others
that communism results from having a
missing mother
whereas fascism is about the absence of
the father so Communists are trying to
fill
the vacuum of the mother
and fascists are trying to fill the
vacuum of the father Dugan made that
observation
which I said that is so true
at least in terms of the ones that
existed that is so so fucking true there
is somehow a relationship between mommy
problems and communism
somehow a very strong one
thank you so much emila appreciate it I
wanted to find a way to cope and analyze
911
interesting
um
where I I don't think it's accurate for
Soviet communism because Soviet
communism
filled the mother void
and the father void was Stalin
and the reason is because communism is
inherently for Orphans right it's for
people who don't have any parents at all
on some level
that's why in dystopian totalitarian uh
uh you know
fiction and in some anecdotal cases in
actual reality
to be at committed communist which is
only supposed to ever be like five to
ten five maybe five percent of the
population a very it's like it's like
the mat the mom looks or the janissaries
of the Ottoman Empire right to be a
committed communist activist
you have to put it before your family
in history in the Soviet Union for
example the story of Pavel morozov was
like the exemplary story told to come
some old youth which was something like
his father or his grandfather or
something was stealing
from he was stealing grain at a time of
a famine and he ratted him out to the
authorities
after which case he was killed by his
own father and family and he became a
martyr because of that
and the story of that was not to produce
a distrust or animosity between children
and their parents in the Soviet Union
but the exact opposite effect what it
was supposed to what it was supposed to
do is basically say
listen to your parents obey your parents
stay at home because when you start to
get involved in the business of the
state as like a full-time committed
activist
which means you can actually enter the
ranks of power
you have to realize this is beyond
family this is beyond everything you
know when you're familiar with
that was more the effect it more kind of
had this effect of psychologically
speaking like
communism is for Orphans in some sense
right
which is why it's not for the majority
of people who are just supposed to live
their life as normal people but people
are supposed to
be brought to understanding and um
learning about that exceptional event
just so a very clear understanding of
the relation between the communist state
and the local parochial family
two they have to be completely separate
right otherwise you're dealing with a
kind of feudalistic nepotistic and
tribalistic Society thank you so much
mayakovsky NATO bombed Serbia when I was
a kid and so for people of my generation
anti-imperialism comes instinctively and
communism comes naturally from that
that's interesting I don't think you
guys are psychologically fucked up
for the most part
I just I'm trying to explore the reasons
why leftists have such a hideous ugly
view of communism
and I have concluded it is a result of
household problems
and problems with the mother in
particular
is what I observed
but in any case
um
I was watching a podcast today of
Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice
and they were explaining and justifying
U.S interventionism
and the basic
uh point of their argument was kind of
something along the lines of oh if
Gaddafi starts killing his people are we
just supposed to take a step back and
watch if Putin invades his Nader
neighbor are we just supposed to take a
step back and watch
and I was for for a second I
was no longer a conspiracy theorist and
I started to entertain the idea
that the way the state works is that
it's just filled with people
who like genuinely do reason that way
and have convinced themselves of that
that line of reasoning because it
immediately makes sense to them
now when you introduce history to the
mix
see my impression
is that Hillary Clinton is just a very
stupid uneducated woman
for for the first time I no longer saw
her as the epitome of a conspirator
who's behind the scenes and worshiping
moloch and all that kind of stuff I
genuinely saw her as just like a stupid
superficial woman who can't think past
you know maybe a decade or two of
History
because
the immediate level and by the way
modern is another word for immediate so
at this immediate modern level
you're right
oh yeah Gaddafi is doing this to his
people we have to do something about it
she said imagine we're in The Situation
Room
and you're being told oh North Korea's
flying missiles over our Ally Japan
China's bolstering its blue Nate it's uh
its um Navy in the Blue Waters we have
to do something about it what do you
want us to do just sit back with our
hands tied behind our back and I found
this perspective
so
um
I found it so uh disturbing right
because to me the way I was looking at
it is that this is actually how they see
things This Is How They experience it
insight into history
is not there
who cares about the past who cares about
history who cares about the conditions
of these things and their context it's
happening now we have to respond
and this is the perspective of the
people running the American Empire right
we can't step back and just let it
happen
well why were you stepping there in the
first place why do you have to step back
why were you even there in the first
place
oh of course we're there
because our new sphere
the projection of our mind
spans the entire globe
all the time and always as an extension
even of just our knowledge
of anything we are always
and already in a position of uniting our
knowledge and consciousness of the world
with the means with which to practically
intervene within it so when these people
see Putin invading Ukraine they say we
have what are we just going to sit back
and do nothing well you ex you think of
yourself having to stand back in the
first place because
you're already too close
you're already too close because you
have projected with your mind the new
sphere right
the entire Globe is your concern it's
your Affair you are already involved in
it it's already your business
not even because you have military bases
around the world and because
systemically you're already involved in
there
but because you have made no distinction
between your knowledge of the world
and the world itself
and that is the real secret of the
American Empire it's the discourse of
the University as lacan put it the
knowledge our institutions have of
reality and reality itself have to be
United as the same thing
and then I thought
see we have a retard in the chat and I
um on Iran I mean unsurprisingly their
name is Hakeem and he says that's not
what the new sphere is
Hakeem I just talked about the discourse
of the University which is also
coincidentally related to being unable
to synthesize ideas in a new context and
think about them in new ways and you've
just decided the new sphere has to only
mean the threshold of the relationship
between Mankind and nature as the
original Russian Cosmos said it couldn't
possibly be the case that there's a
geopolitical
and even metaphysical
aspect of new sphere
that goes far beyond
um the relationship between Mankind and
nature you said that's not what the new
sphere is well maybe you should have
reflected and thought about the sense in
which I'm using that word
in any case
in any case
it made me um think about like why I
have always been I guess a communist and
I think to me it's always been very
simple
because I've I've heard every
perspective I've I've listened to every
perspective even growing up
when I was someone who was just so
anti-us intervention in U.S Empire
I listen to their arguments because I
used to argue with them in school the
George Bush Defenders and those kinds of
people the neo-conservatives and I
listened to the perspective of people
like Condoleezza Rice and Hillary
Clinton why because my teachers were
giving me that perspective when I would
argue with them in class
and it made me think about at the core
at a very core core level
and it's it's something so interesting
right
because there was a time when I hated
Islam and I hated my own culture and you
know I was just a full atheist and yada
yada yada and I thought America was more
advanced and Superior
but what's so
beautiful to me I'm just gonna say it it
is beautiful
in my view is that looking back this
entire time
the real core of every
thing I've ever cared about
has been
standing up to the American Empire
that's always what it's been about it's
always been about
there's just this war of partisans of of
global partisans Rogue States
different groups
um
different people different forms of
resistance Che Guevara you know some
funny guys in Lebanon
[Music]
and what have they been fighting for I
mean they're they're so diverse
ideologically and they're so diverse
geographically and culturally and
religiously but what are they fighting
for
they're the bad guys I've I was raised
believe it or not
I was raised in public school and I
consumed American Media growing up so I
was raised with the idea that these are
the bad guys if you play Call of Duty
Modern Warfare 2 right now those are the
bad guys those are the bad guys oh what
are the Chinese doing what are the
Russians doing those bad guys are up to
something
and to me thinking about the fact
that not only are the bad guys fighting
for a reason that contains the secret
and the truth of our entire reality
but also
that there's a history of the of the bad
guys a forgotten history
of the bad guys
like
that Lenin unlocked the key for example
to overthrowing the Empire
and that this is a lost tradition
even an ancient tradition I would argue
but specifically the way in which see
it's it's a very
subtle Beauty you have to appreciate
about the history of communism
America represents
a
what is the word
an absolute threshold
of being Beyond which lies apocalypse
so we are here in the situation room and
North Korea's firing missiles over our
Ally Japan China is building up its Navy
Russia's invading Ukraine what do we do
right
beyond the threshold of our new sphere
of our unipolar world
is chaos and meaninglessness and nothing
we have to do something to stop this
and then learning about how in history
there were people
who did cross that line
and Despite All Odds made something of
it and build something of it when the
ruling class condemned them
and said and predicted you will fail you
will not succeed you will go nowhere
they built something new beautiful
things
incredible things things mankind has
never seen before
and more importantly they remembered
things
that were forgotten
because of this modernity This Here and
Now of we must do something now of
modernity
for me Lenin has this significance
Lenin already
walked the path
a path that's been forgotten by the way
but he walked it
and Stalin
who is the most faithful student of
Lenin
I mean led the Soviet Union a completely
different civilization
and he led it Faithfully he walked the
narrow and straight path like a saint
building this alternative world and this
alternative civilization knowing
precisely in all his infinite wisdom how
to act and how to intervene
not to be too one-sided to be balanced
to be dialectical to have this wisdom
and insight
and succeed when the west and the world
was saying you can't have a
proletarian dictatorship you can't have
a dictatorship of the people you'll fail
you'll fail
they didn't fail
they built up
one of the strongest civilizations and
empires in the history of the world
this is a completely different history
to me Lenin people like Lenin people
like Mao crossed the threshold
of what it means to be a human being
and explored what lies beyond that
they participated in a truly
mythological violence
out of which Rises
um
the stuff of civilization
so for me it is something sacred it's
not it's not a meme it's not I'm not a
benthamite utilitarian who says oh Lenin
was just a guy like me and I can be
relatable to him and he just wanted this
to happen
because he thought this policy would be
best and all he cared about people and
that's why he did it no for me we are
looking at the very Origins it's a it's
a with Walter Benjamin would call Divine
violence it's an encounter with the
sublime
that crosses the threshold of Extinction
right beyond the limit
of death life and death literally as a
matter of life and death I want to put
this in perspective guys
communism
is something people who were atheists
who had no
expectation of a reward
who had no expectation of um an
afterlife
so there is nothing pragmatic or
utilitarian about what they were doing
they died for this they took bullets for
it
and please forgive me for sounding crazy
but I I just don't think
that today's contemporary Communists are
made of the same stuff as those guys
I don't think they are I don't I think
for them this is just a
a matter of utility and I just think
it's a social
um
more on that I just it's a social
signifier but like I don't think they
actually believe in it
to the point where they would dedicate
their lives to it
unconditionally
to live and die for it I just don't feel
like that's the case for contemporary
so-called communists
now why is that is the question we have
to ask and we have to try and reflect on
and the only thing I can think of is
that
they have forgotten the origins of the
party
and when I say the party I mean the
institution that binds together
communism itself
the party the the the organization the
collective the socius
of Communism the discourse of Communism
they take it for granted and they allow
it to be reflected in the image
and so a lot of the time I feel like I'm
in the same
perspective as Martin Luther was at the
time of the Reformation all the things
he was saying about the Catholic church
I just maybe I'm wrong
not to offend Catholics I just strongly
feel
that this applies to the state of world
communism today I feel like every one to
one
all of the critiques of
the church that Luther was engaged in
have a one-to-one application to the
state of international communism
the kind of idolatry
where
No One Believes In it from their heart
they dwell
in the ready-made premises of communist
Association which they simply take for
granted
and don't actually from scratch derive
the essence of
an approximate individual level
and this leads to what finality it leads
to corruption it leads to indulgences
being sold and what are the modern day
indulgences well in the past they would
sell indulgences so in return for a
certain sum of gold you can go to heaven
and be absorbed and today of course the
Indulgence is clout it's social validity
and recognition which psychologically
probably activates more dopamine
receptors than gold ever did
it's clouds in return for getting
attention
I you know I will virtue signal as a
communist I will sell
I will sell
the sacred truth of Communism so one-up
my opponent
my adversary in the career climbing game
oh I'm a black Trans woman I'm suffering
more
I want to make more money than you so
I'm gonna fucking invoke the scripture
to fucking rise above my peers these
fucking people don't fucking believe in
it they're using it for selfish fucking
reasons
and they're using it for reasons
that are related to their fucking
careers
they don't at Social Capital they don't
fucking believe in it
they use it as a justification for their
own fucking corruption
and their career climbing bullshit
spencing the career climbing bullshit
look at that fucking retard keffels as
soon as they got legitimated after being
a communist as soon as they got
legitimated what did they fucking do by
the mainstream media they became a lib
and everyone was supposed to be happy
for them
you began as this hardcore revolutionary
communist and now what you're on the
cover of mainstream media and the
Democratic party and these you know the
liberal establishment and it's just a
seamless transition oh you Rose the you
climbed the career I'm so glad for you
I'm so happy for you you made it out of
this hell
that is communist
culture which none of us believe in but
which are only dwelling within because
we're so fucking resentful and we hate
our lives and we hate everything you
finally made it to the big screen
congratulations you're part of the
mainstream in essence Western Communists
are all revisionists they view communism
as something to be molded for their
therapy absolutely it's like am I the
only fucking person yeah that fucking
disgusting disgusting disgusting
degenerate Juniper that piece of shit
scum of scum scum of humanity
on Twitter Juniper the New York Times
but to speak more on them I get banned
on YouTube
these are disgusting spiritually
deficient and depleted people these are
the most disgusting immoral scumbags you
can think of
they are devoid of humanity they are
devoid of belief they are devoid of
Honor
their entire aesthetic they're Sublime
their their Event Horizon Beyond which
lies Sublime meaning
is when they remember how their feelings
got hurt
oh
I'm so compassionate for others heart
emoji I'm gonna help others
Bixby it's AOC right I'm gonna help
others
that's my fucking Event Horizon
this narcissistic fantasy
that I have
of compassion and empathy which actually
just reflects my own narcissism and
nothing else
let me let me announce something very
clearly because a lot of people think
and I'm not here to insult women but I
am a misogynist so I'm going to do it
anyway
this is not some women bullshit
what do I mean by this is not some women
bullshit communism it's not some women
bullshit
it's not something for you having mommy
issues and wanting a woman it's not some
women bullshit
what do I mean by that let me qualify
exactly what I mean by that
I think women bullshit is when you say
the truth and the object be damned this
is how I feel in my heart
or this is how I feel this is my
sentiment
I don't care about objective truth I
just have empathy for others so I'll do
anything for my baby
that's women bullshit
but
communism is about the object it's about
out there something being real out there
something being true
not about how you feel
not about how you uh have empathy for
others
not because you have a broken heart
but because the heart
of being is already
Cuban communism because she saw a nurse
take a cigarette break at the hospital
actually serious Keck I heard about that
thank you so much emila
communism means
something there out there not I'm so
empathetic and I want to help others no
no it's not about that it's not about
helping others
in the sense in which you're trying to
say
it's not what it's about
it's about the object
it's about objectivity
I don't mean this in an impersonal
scientific sense of fucking scientists
I'm saying this in the sense of this is
about the sacral heart of being
this is about the thing that gives
meaning to humanity and all of history
that's what it's about
it's and most people most Communists are
not Communists they are social Democrats
who are using communism as a mascot to
make a point
let me put it this way
you know when
um you know how most
again this sounds super misogynistic but
for some reason as a heuristic it just
works
I feel like all women believe they're
Priceless right
for some reason
and that when you when they take you to
court because you you know um insulted
them or something let's just say they're
like okay and I want you to pay me
whenever a woman judge like gives the
sentence like for example this is the
perfect one The Alex Jones one
they're like and I hereby demand you pay
one trillion dollars
to the families because it was so bad
when you did it it breaks my heart so
much one trillion dollars
thank you Janar so much appreciate it
thank you so much Jenna thank you so
holy fuck Jenna thank you so much
thank you so much man
when you're in court
when women are the judge in court they
have their what now are they doing this
because they're engaged in kind of an
objective
um
appreciation for how much money that is
and the extent to which it is possible
to pay that amount of money no they're
basically saying
your
Act of um
of immorality is priceless there is no
amount of money that could compensate
the Heartbreak that these parents went
through therefore I'll just fucking make
it one gazillion dollars
because there is no amount of money that
can fill the void
of an aching heart
right by the way I'm not saying I hate
women because of this I'm just saying
it's a very womanly thing to do
and it's human nature there's nothing
wrong with that right if if they weren't
like this we probably wouldn't you know
have gone this far anyway but I'm just
saying we should understand these
differences
but here's the problem when it comes to
things that are the domain of
things that are not just personal right
the problem is that there is a price
because you're taking someone to court
so there is a price and it has to be a
reasonable price it has to be one that's
based in reality not based in the extent
to which it's impossible
now what does this have to do with
Communism well when you think about it
most American leftists who call
themselves communists
are just like that judge although
instead of demanding a trillion dollars
they're demanding full communism and
it's not because they have adopted this
objective communist stance it's because
their basic point is there's so much
Injustice in our society and there's so
much wrong it's so unfair I should say
that we may as well have full communism
just like the judge said you may as well
owe a trillion dollars they're saying we
may as well have communism
But ultimately the concrete demand
behind the woman which is what I'm
trying to say The Man Behind the woman
see okay when the judge says I want a
trillion dollars The Man Behind the
woman is just dead it's I want you to be
bankrupt and I want you to be out of a
job and I want you to lose everything
that's the man behind the woman okay The
Man Behind the woman
when it comes to
American communism or International
communism even Hakeem and Hugo pink it's
just social democracy none of them
actually expect a communist program to
succeed none of them expect any kind of
Revolution to happen they don't expect
anything like that happen but what they
do is that they feel this gives stronger
Credence and emphasis on the concrete
and realistic pragmatical Social
Democratic politics that is like
reflected in actual reality so it's like
a mascot for social democracy
oh you're lucky we don't have full
communism because Bernie was the
Compromise
Bernie is the Compromise
remember that slogan they used to say
Bernie is the compromise no he's not
no he's not he's not even your truth
your truth is Biden your truth is the
Democratic Party
that's where you are that's what you
objectively are
you will never admit it either to
yourself or others
but in reality and in the objective
sense of the word not in terms of how
you feel objectively speaking that is
where you are and that is with whom you
are aligned you want to know proof
every time there is a contradiction
every single time
that pits red versus blue you take blue
side
on everything
Elon Musk Elon Musk says I'm gonna unban
everyone
wow it just so happens that you're on
the side of the Democrats on that one
even though he's saying hypothetic like
yeah I'm gonna allow Communists to
freely say whatever they want without
getting banned you're you're just
instinctually against him why is that
because you're a whore you're a whore
and your pimp is the Democratic Party
your man is the Democratic Party
you're a whore and a prostitute
and the Democratic party is your man
that is your phallus
and you are just some whore nothing more
I am sick of dealing
with
I'm sick of having to deal with whores
let's fight the man we're not gonna
fight his whores we're gonna fight the
man
We're not gonna get caught up fighting
his fucking prostitutes we're fighting
the man not his bitch
that's our fucking enemy
we will not entertain
some other man's bitch anymore that's
not politics that's not fucking
discourse
this is what communism is about
this is what it's about
a class war it's a class war
it's a real class war by the way not the
idea of one but a real one
where you fight the power that be you
fight the man in power that's what
communism is about it's about men
raising their arms fighting the man in
power
but Communists in the west are too
caught up
talking to and arguing with the man's
whore and the man's prostitutes those
bitches are not where power is they're
just taught this this this that's not
that's nothing that's a cockroach it's
nothing thank you so much Tom Smith I
was alone thank you so much for three
years creating my own way like G.K
Chesterton found Orthodoxy after trying
to found his own heresy I found the
golden path in sultanas following you to
the ends of the Earth thank you so much
Thomas thank you so much salsa American
leftists become Communists so they can
call themselves former Communists and
it's that's the biggest insult of all is
you were never a communist right thank
you so much amila appreciate you so much
holy paste and freckles rise gorilla Sun
gorilla Sun
oh my God holy fuck amirio thank you so
much for the 20. thank you so much
but people have lost sight of this truth
they've lost sight of the fucking fact
communism
it's like I want to say
it's the concern of men
it's just that I don't mean it literally
obviously women have played a very
strong role in the history of Communism
I just mean it in just this more
abstract psychological sense
this is not a fucking
this is not gossip between bitches
well we're gonna argue who's more moral
who's that it doesn't fucking matter who
has power
who's holding a gun who has the gun
that's what fucking matters
right what did Mao say all political
power comes out of the barrel of a gun
he didn't say who fucking is more
crawlier and more suffering than the
other fucking person
he said it's it comes out of here
there is no communist movement in
America there's a bunch of people who
are psychologically fucked up and
they're using politics and they're using
ideology because they're fucking lonely
and they want to just find people they
can be friends with because they fucking
abandon their families for whatever
fucking reason
it's got nothing at all to fucking do
with any movement out there nothing at
all it's an internal psychological
problem thank you so much EJ appreciate
you
appreciate you so much
I reflected and I always I'm very I'm a
very introspective person
the thing that has guided me
consistently throughout my entire
journey ideologically and politically is
and I never I didn't even always realize
this right
I will never take a breath living
without fighting this Empire
that's what I'm fucking here for now why
do I want to fight the empire
because I don't believe it's lies
I don't believe them
I don't believe the lies they say I
choose to remember something
when I was a Shia islamist I chose to
remember the martyrdom of Imam Hussein
and when I was a communist I chose to
remember
the sacred history of Communism and
martyrs like Che Guevara
and the Chinese Communists who fought
and the Russian Communists who fought
the Nazis and who fought in the Civil
War
and who fought in the revolution
but it's always been about memory it's
always been about
the American modernity which says here
and now we must do something we must do
something no
no we must not do something
we cannot do anything
because we are not here
Our Truth is in the past
Hillary Clinton said
I want to overthrow Gaddafi because what
am I going to supposed to step back and
let him kill his own people
who are you who the fuck are you
to be there in the first place how did
you get there how did you get there how
did you get there what is your history
what is your past what is your tradition
bitch you have none
you have no tradition
so you think you're here you're always
always here you have no past and no
tradition you are pure contemporaneity
and pure modernity Putin invaded Ukraine
are we supposed to sit back and do
nothing
what were you doing before Putin invaded
Ukraine why were you there
why were you there in the first place
you forgot that you want to make earth
forget I refuse to forget I choose to
remember
that's the meaning of memory
it's one continuous gaslighting
it's one continuous gaslighting
we are supposed to pretend we are here
and now we are not here and now
now is not here
now is somewhere else
that is the beginning of tradition that
is the flame of tradition
tradition
many people have this confused tradition
doesn't mean I'm gonna jack off to
neoclassical Aesthetics on Twitter
prediction memes I will form a chain of
memory I will cohere
they hear and now with what was then I
will make not only now meaningful but
where I came from where I am going and
where I am here now part of one
indivisible absolute that's what
tradition means tradition means I
remember where I came from
how I got here in the first place and
only upon remembering how I got here in
the first place can I have the right to
answer the question what now must I do
what now must I do is because I remember
how I got here in the first place I do
not have an unconditional modernity I do
not have an unconditional
contemporaneity
my modernity modern modernity meaning
here right here and now
contemporaneity
this delivers me to my Origins
I refuse to continue to take flight from
them
this is why I am a communist and nothing
else
many of you thank you so much GL
many of you think
that you can simply live in this world
and you wouldn't have to care right for
me it's like I notice how much mental
energy and Faith even the most passive
of people give to this this can this
this Continuum that somehow never
remembers itself of American modernity
and of modernity where they don't
remember
they take for granted
what we're fed what we're being told
when I played Call of Duty when I was a
kid
I couldn't just blindly enjoy it I
couldn't
I had Arab cousins and friends and I was
like how can you play this fucking game
and kill your fellow Arabs
and they're like oh who cares man it's
just fun
and it's like I understand that now I'm
not Autistic or whatever maybe I was
it's like it didn't make sense to me
what do you mean it's just blind fun
right
I want somehow the world to reflect
the truth
based maybe that is autistic history
before he answered the question what is
to be done
precisely
I'm gonna be honest
I can play video games
I could probably play the new Call of
Duty now
but I won't do it I won't play a fucking
game
where I'm gonna be shooting Iranians and
shooting Russians
I wish I could just look past all that
shit and fucking do it
is that autistic that I can't fucking do
it I can't do it there's something it
just feels wrong
it feels fucking wrong right
am I paranoid for like thinking this
site this has a psychological effect on
you where it numbs you and desensitizes
you to getting used to lies
to getting used to the stories they I
mean maybe the smartest of people can
just look past all of it the most
brilliant people I could kind of see
where you're coming from if you can do
that I just but for me it's just like I
feel like I don't want to get used to
this
and I know it's just a video game
but I think it's ugly is my problem and
it to me everything's about art and I
don't like doing ugly things because it
makes me feel sick in my stomach
actually it's it's like a funny story
when I was when I was in Middle School
which is when this shit came out
I was the kid that kept playing Halo is
it because my parents couldn't afford
the new Call of Duty they could afford
it if I asked them I didn't want it
I didn't fucking want it
I wanted to play Halo
wanna know why because in Halo I didn't
have to kill my fellow away rabs
that's why I could just killed
space things and he and then I was too
stupid to understand that even Halo
was technically about the the war on
terror like you know the neoconservative
atheist Empire versus the religious
fanatics but you know that's just like
that's like a metaphor right it's not
Direct
I kept playing Halo 3. all I was on Xbox
360. all my friends were playing Call of
Duty 4. Call of Duty 4 Call of Duty 4. I
said no I'm still playing Halo and you
want to play Halo nobody did there's
some guy
in Australia who played Halo with me
and he was like on my friends list it
was my only friend one of my only
friends and I would just play custom
games with 16 other random people in
lobbies and that would be the people I I
could meet my own friends not playing
thank you again when you already know
the contents of the Apple
exactly that's exactly it
did you guys hear what Jay Grimes just
said they insult you by telling you to
eat the fucking Apple when you already
know what's inside we have to do it
again I don't want to do it again
I don't want to do it again
that's a pretty brilliant way of putting
it
actually
it's a quite brilliant way of putting it
bring you so much sitter right
appreciate it blind fun is a hedonistic
cope might as well engage in orgies or
watch prawn all day to Max your youth I
think that's the reason and I think this
is that a bit sad and tragic I hated
Sports I couldn't get into sports maybe
this is autism but I the way I saw it is
like what's the point
of sports why should I care why should I
get involved
why should I care about this right now I
I'm not going to raise my kids if I have
them to think this way because I'm going
to explain to them how you can't take
for granted your skill it's fun to put
your skill to the test
because you can never take it for
granted but I decided to take it for
granted and just say I don't care if I
win or lose this dumb game what am I
fighting for thank you so much Johnny
Halo 3 odsd was actually kind of based
they built new Mombasa which is an
African super City
it is that game is cool as a whole Halo
3 is a great game
but the way the way I thought about it
was just like what is the purpose am I
is this a war I'm fighting in I'll do
that I'll fight for a war I'll Fight For
a Cause
give me a reason to do this right
why should I do it
that's why I didn't understand it
nope I I mean I I like sports now even
though I don't play them I'm obviously a
very athletic person
but I didn't understand competitive
Sports when I was growing up I did not
fucking understand them but thank you so
much tug try skateboarding if you don't
like sports
foreign
the thing that makes me angry though the
most fucking angry
I can't look
at communist imagery anymore without
being reminded
of the people who aestheticize it today
and that's what makes me fucking sad
there's something so fundamentally
corrupt
about 21st century communism
it is spiritually empty
it is devoid of meaning
it's the communism of minions a bunch of
minions coming together
and it's this
modernity of Here and Now
forget where you came from don't
remember anything
let's go get more Health Care
let's get that health care right
we have to people are dying
vote for Joe Biden people are dying harm
reduction
arm reduction
you can get on your fucking knees
and suck my and choke on my fucking dick
I don't live in your situation room
here is not now is not here now is not
here
it's arm reduction no you suck my cock
now is not here
you act like Hillary did in The
Situation Room when she felt like she
had to make the choice of whether to
step back and do nothing when Gaddafi
was killing his own people
what if it was never your fucking place
to do anything bitch
it's not my place to vote
do you understand where I'm coming from
now The Angst of activism of acting now
that is the LIE of American modernity
and to me communism has always meant the
opposite of that
it's not a Praxis
with which to act
at all
communist Praxis
is the beginning of a tradition thank
you so much
what you're talking about tonight is
what intuitively set infrared apart for
me the rest of these Communists just
seemed cringe unprincipled and weak even
when I didn't understand anything about
communism
and they are they are
they are so filthy and corrupt
you you would not fucking believe how
disgusting these Communists are you
would not fucking believe it these are
such sickening fucking people they are
so corrupt to their fucking core it
would make you sick
because you have to
you have to think of it this way right
how does someone go about base thank you
so much Jake Ryan I should clarify I
mean Apple in a biblical sense
I know
I know
guys thank you so much Jay Grimes guys
how does someone go about
today
uh calling themselves a Marxist
leninister a communist in America like
for example that fat disgusting fuck
chair lady
or cold empanadas
or swamp communist
what led them to start identifying with
um the imagery of Mao
whose image actually you can see
right there
can't see it now because Jake Grimes is
don't know
um but it's like right behind it
um what led them to start identifying
with this imagery how did they start
telling themselves
Lenin was good Stalin was good communism
was good what does that mean for them
what does that mean to them and when you
realize that for them
for them it's like
it's it's not that they see any beauty
in it they don't see anything beautiful
about it or Sublime I should say really
the correct word here is Sublime right
they don't appreciate anything Sublime
about this history
rather for them these are vulgar mascots
that bear Testament to some unresolved
resentment and bitterness and
viciousness they Harbor toward the world
Lenin for them is an avatar of personal
resentment
that is how they have
blasphemed the sacred history of
communism
they have blasphemed it
we need to be honest about something
there is nothing personal
about communism
if you are here because you want health
care if you are here because you want
anything you are corrupt
I'm a communist because
I
feel more entitled to have things that I
don't have now
in a country like America you are trying
to initiate yourself into this dead
ideology that has no mass movement
that has no program
so you're not a mass worker you're a
person
who is indulging in this ideology
I mean what leads you to care about
Community why do you care about politics
why do you care about ideology at all
what leads you to give a fuck about any
of that
don't tell me it's because you're a good
person because I don't believe you
because I'm so exhausted I'm in Brooklyn
and I work in Starbucks all day and I'm
so exhausted
go fuck yourself
go fuck yourself
you fucking bitch
you're exhausted I don't give a fuck and
it's not society's fucking problem that
you're exhausted you're just a dumb
incompetent retard
Lennon doesn't give a fuck about the
fact you're exhausted Stalin doesn't
either and no one in the history of
Communism has ever related to your
origin story none of them you'd have you
have nothing to do with them
I'm so exhausted and tired of all the
Injustice in the world
so leave this world I mean that
sincerely and I mean by that I mean go
to Mars with Elon Musk
I'm so exhausted
communism is not for people
who are looking for release
communism is for people who have already
found that
that's why Lenin called people
Philistines because he already found his
meaning he already found his
reconciliation he found his purpose in
life for him he was at
he was reconciled with his his story and
his he knew his mission and he did it
well
these people
are like ah
I didn't get to like live in a Manhattan
high-rise apartment I guess I'll just be
like a communist and until like I can be
like until like some billionaire marries
me
until I can become like kefles and just
like
like enter the mainstream and I won't
have to be a communist anymore
it's a purgatory
it's a Purgatory that's what it is
see
I believe in the Asiatic principle
of
Heavenly Bliss
I think people like Lenin and Stalin and
Mao were in a state of Nirvana always
right by the way you should see what
people said about Paul Pott how calm he
was
always in a state of Nirvana we're not
going to talk about him
but the main figures in communist
history they're in a state of bliss
mentally in in terms of their inner
spiritual world
they are so reconciled and so at peace
Stalin
he was like an orthodox monk he was a
monk
look at paintings of Stalin this is
actually how he was he was extremely
calm extremely chill right
he understands his place in the world
same with Lenin
they they are in
Nirvana right
Mao same way
these are not people who are using
politics
as a way to solve their story and solve
their personal problems they are Beyond
any personal problem
in terms of their inner and their outer
life yeah they're still involved in all
this different shit but in their inner
internal spiritual life
they're far beyond it yeah she president
XI in China is this way
this is and and Saints in the history of
religions they're also like this right
now I happen to be an angry fucking guy
because I'm on camera all the time
but in person
I am fatally calm
unless I have to fight someone but other
than that
I am in a state of
well now that I'm moving I am in this
fucking anxiety whatever state
admittedly but usually
this is what I Aspire toward right
foreign
you have to be at to be a communist
you need to be at ease you need to be
you need to have forgiven your father
you need to have forgiven your mother
you need to you need to be okay with
your such you can't be oh I'm exhaust no
you need to be fine you need to be okay
if you're using communism as your ticket
out of your problem
you're abusing this sacred tradition
and I am risking Madness by doing this
at the risk of sounding
like a schizophrenic crazy crackhead
I think
that everyone else who's a communist in
America
is wrong
and there that I think there is a
tradition of communist history I think
it wasn't always like this
I think in the times of the Bolsheviks
and in the times
of legendary Communists throughout
history that they were not like this
that's a bold thing to say
but that's what I'm saying they were not
like the Communists you have today
there's a complete disconnect and
there's something that was completely
forgotten
which is there's no trace of it
in today's Communists none at all
I believe in a lost mythical communist
past
that is nowhere present in the world
today in the form of any mass movement
even in the Communist Party the Russian
Federation where is the avant-garde
movement where is the new
orientation that responds to the calling
of the era I don't see it
and so we are in a desert right now
we are in a desert a spiritual and
existential desert
all I have ever been trying to do is get
out of this desert and Maga communism
was that because my view was that
by harnessing the
temp the
uh what would you call this
the
templexity or the kind of
way in which Maga was disturbing the
timeline right
we could hitch a ride onto the Maga
movement
to actually revive the mythological and
lost origins of communism
I think paleolinist is a beautiful word
and I'm gonna steal that
yes paleo leninism
archae or RKO stalinism RKO leninism
no no RKO Marxism is the word
the word is RKO Marxism we need to very
much very much get used to that word RKO
Marxism
archao Marxism yes
to me Maga communism like the basic idea
of Maga communism is that
uniting the ideas of Communism with the
Maga movement will somehow revive this
lost past
Maga very Ambiguously was supposed to be
about the Lost past of America
but it can also become the last past of
communism because it's it is in the
direction it's like a vector in the
direction of lost past in general so all
manner of lost Traditions have an
opportunity to see their day in the Sun
including communism and for me this is
what Maga communism was about
the Lost past of communism
being revived
make communism great again
I don't fucking know
and we can figure out some better name
out
Mikka
that's what it was always about for me
modernity is like this endless
refresh button refresh refresh refresh
refresh I want you to think of what
modernity really means instead of
thinking of modernity
as a era modernity is always ever see
for example modernity is not okay
beginning in 1700 that's the modern era
no modernity is a refresh button
constant constant constant refresh
constantly refreshing right constant
liquidation constantly constantly trying
to reset the slate and reset the
timeline
to me the significance of Marxism at
least at the level of time at the level
of modernity
is that while this refreshing thank you
so much
reminds me of the old streams where you
repeatedly made the case that in the
past MLS were cutting edge able to have
great foresight just as there is an
acceleration into the future so too does
the past deepen precisely
precisely thank you so much voidberg
appreciate you so much
yeah modernity is every Monday that's a
good way of putting it actually believe
it or not
constant refresh
but the significance of Marxism
is that
even while you're refreshing
you're still seeing the same thing
so Marxism is this red pill that allows
you to remember
we're trying to get back to my
grandfather on the shores of Normandy
was fighting for a communist America I
have to go back in time and bring it to
him thank you so much soapbox that's
precisely that it's a real timeline yes
not a hypothetical one it's precisely it
so the significance of Marxism as far as
this constant refreshing is concerned
is actually quite simple
Marxism wants us to remember all of the
things that show up
when the page appears
and some content starts to show up on
the page we refreshed it
and then it shows up again and we
refreshed it
and then Marxism stopped and it said
wait a second there's something on this
page
there's something here
you know the movie Groundhog Day where
someone relives the same day over and
over again all Marxism is is the red
pill that says you were already here
's why this day keeps repeating because
this is what matters
about this day
there's a symptom there's a problem that
results in this day constantly getting
refreshed
and by being able to remember that
problem
you can actually see tomorrow
come to pass
thank you so much malty what is your
opinion of rising neocon parties like
Roger ptb slash pvda in the socially
right turn that Nordic silk Dems party
have been making recently
I have no uh insight into any of that I
don't I have not I don't know anything
about any of that I've never heard of
socially right turn that Nordic Social
Democratic
surely not the establishment ones
those have to be like Splinter parties
okay
now
there's something we're gonna watch
together that I haven't seen yet it's
from that at the
Russian communist
animation Channel and they have like a
new video they uh released today which I
want to watch
so let's watch it together
I I I can't really tell you anything
about the content
of this video I just want to see it
foreign
[Music]
yeah today
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
[Music]
myself
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
together
[Music]
[Music]
um
well I mean uh it's better than
it's obviously better than Western uh
communistic Aesthetics
not horrible but
watch the highlights no no hold on give
me a second
foreign but I have to make a small
criticism or at least an observation
did you notice they had those glasses
how come you don't have those glasses in
uh classical Marxism
the glass is a false consciousness which
in this animation go far beyond the
bounds of traditional Marxist conception
of false consciousness like a completely
agnostic view that you're being
brainwashed about reality entirely
because of your lack of investment
and this specific political ideology
this reflects probably the most clearly
the problem of Western communism
it cannot
it pretends to unders have a class
analysis and traditional Marxist
application of class analysis to reality
but it cannot really coherently make
sense of
this question of Consciousness with the
glasses like
what are the things
that make reality intelligible coherent
and meaningful to people
what does it mean to engage in a
critique of ideology
do you just take the glasses off and
you're in reality
unfortunately it's not that simple
is correct
truth has the structure of a fiction
so you're always wearing glasses you
can't just take them off
because it's the
it's not just confidence transcendental
Horizon
uh that makes reality intelligible
because that's just belonging to the
realm of conceptual reason this
transcendental screen must be applied to
the libidinal
and psychosocial level
which
Western Communists are the Communists in
general across the world are completely
deficient in being able to do I'm gonna
actually make
an observation a friendly and comradly
criticism even of many Chinese
Communists youth the youth wing of the
Communist Party in China which I am
following somewhat marginally but I will
make to them a comradly criticism I will
also do this to the Russian communists
my comradly criticism
is that
speaking in terms of the critique of
ideology
there is a deficiency in the ability to
possess a Marxist understanding
of
the
psychosocial and libidinal forces
that
people invest thank you so much Donovan
appreciate you holy fuck thank you so
much for the 50.
there's a strong deficiency in the
ability
to understand
um the question of how can there be an
objective reality in the age of social
media
and in the age of the internet in the
age of mass popular culture more
importantly how can you reconcile the
difference between ideological Duty and
the enjoyment of mass culture now not to
critique the Chinese Communists for this
they have a different culture
but in the youth wing of the Communist
Party of China one of their mascots is
like an anime
girl
and maybe in their cultural context
this somehow fits
but to me this is a kind of awkward
um like uh
inability to distinguish
the things that people enjoy
psychologically and
the impersonal political Duty that is
established at an Institutional level
or even an ethical level for a communist
but the problem is where does one begin
and where does one end
communism has to somehow be made sexy
but it can't be
because it's not sexy
you know
so my advice to the Russian and Chinese
Communist comrades
take I'm just speaking as someone who
has
you can say I'm a scholar right my
scholarly advice
is to try and search for the meaning of
communism
in the sublime what are the sublime
Origins
of the Communist Party
because the encounter with it at the
phenomenal level is also Sublime
it's not a partial object like Gillis de
los
delos how do you pronounce his name was
a theorist of partial objects that's
like what an anime
character is it's a partial object it's
a partial enjoyment
like the you know the worst Defender is
the Japanese Communist party where they
have the anime girl singing the song
I'll show it to you if you want to uh
if anyone has um
unwell feelings
these see a therapist and log out of the
stream right now
because this may strongly aggravate
your feelings of self
dissatisfaction I don't know how much I
could say on YouTube but
if you're if you're near any harmful or
dangerous objects please step away and
then exit the Stream
okay but I know you guys are familiar
with this
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
foreign
IST and got taken over by Trotsky as
senso stem types many such cases
thank you so much voidberg I didn't know
that
but in any case
so
what's the problem
this is a partial object
figure and then you move on
there needs to be a reset a re-encounter
with the sublime origins of communist
belief and communist ideology
and only after that Sublime
um
that's revelatory Sublime encounter
which may have to be nuclear war who
fuck knows
uh I'm just kidding but at this point
who fucking knows
um
only then will it be possible
to have a correct aesthetic
what does it mean to have a correct
aesthetic it means to
depict things and produce things that
are worthy
of communist ideas
and the history of Communism and the
meaning of this history
why why did the Socialist realists
understand this
how why did they produce
I'll give you an example okay
I'll give you an example
so what overall aesthetic and view of
the world
leads people
to produce the following differences
okay I just want to uh ask this question
and pose this question
um so this
you have to think about the
understanding of being and the world to
produce this kind of work of art
or this one is kind of famous One the
steel workers it's a common theme in
Social serialism
okay and then versus this
do these reflect
different
um
radically different
relationships to the sublime
how are these part of the same history
is my question
how is this
part of the same history as this
where in this
do you find anything like this
you see where in any of this do you find
even the smallest Trace
of this aesthetic and this world view
from tone to the emotions it evokes and
it's supposed to evoke
the way it makes you feel
the kind of response it elicits from you
is and I understand times change but
is the 2022 version of this really this
does this succeed
in eliciting the same feeling
that this does are there things in this
that are missing in this let's let's
actually do a little analysis
uh art criticism a mediocre one this one
you can already see there's a strong
sense of Radiance
the color grading the tone it's a strong
sense of Radiance and although there's
kind of a sense of optimism there's also
a sense of groundedness this person's
wearing a traditional hat she's wearing
something traditional he's wearing
something traditional
is our ordinary men and women but
there's a this is masculine dominated in
terms of its
um the people in it
and then the feminine elements because
it always has to be a combination of
both in every work of art is relegated
to this kind of collectivity this kind
of uh
working for the motherland right or some
some kind of socialist community
um
there's something very rugged about this
there's something about this that looks
like these are people who have gone in
the dirt and through the dirt right
um
these are people who have resigned
themselves and committed themselves
fully to a cause these are people
fighting for something right
there's a strong sense of solidity
now what does this evoke oh my God
first of all this woman has her mouth
open
so this depicts a what is this
it depicts some fucking squealing bitch
in Brooklyn
um squealing about something and look
he's also soy facing over here
and this guy just is kind of smiling
this depicts a kind of strong sense of
like meekness right their Meek they're
just like extremely
um harmless oh come join us we're
harmless We're Not Gonna actually do
anything we just vote for Democrats come
on just join us
um it just this kind of just gives me
the impression that people are just
standing around
um
satisfied with what they're doing
like this guy in the back
and this person it's kind of she's like
she's walking aimlessly just
yelling right
yeah I mean of course it's very juvenile
um but what feeling does this evoke does
this evoke the same like this for
example
this is the strong
coherence right like this encompasses
probably almost every aspect of human
sensibility this speaks to the adult in
you not the child in you this speaks to
the adult in you right something very
serious about this
but does this speak to the adult in you
at all
this leaves our adult sensibilities
wanting for something right
this does not exhaust
Sublimity it doesn't exhaust the sublime
in the way that this does this looks
like a definite incarnation
of
the sublime right
as a whole right
this does not this this just seems
unserious fundamentally unserious
this reminds me of Rosanna sitting
behind her desk
answering emails
there you have it
they there is definitely something
missing this is just a random photo I
just chose from Google but you can look
at any photo from the Socialist realist
era of any communist country I promise
you you will not find this anywhere to
be found you will not there is no
there is no aesthetic
um
commensurability
they don't belong to the same lineage it
doesn't seem like they belong to the
same tradition at all I'm not just
saying because they're different styles
and different formats obviously that
evolves and changes
but
in terms of the message they're sending
they don't look related at all at least
these are supposed to both be Communists
right but how this
what is this does not seem like
it is exhausting the meaning of
Communism on a historical level
right
even even the shit infrared Community
makes
kind of feels like it's more evocative
of socialist realism
right
even if they're just memes and they're
just like for shits and giggles
someone wants to debate me in VC about
what
um I don't I think Haas is lying about
how much he lives he probably does
CrossFit in secret
uh yeah I'm just okay I don't really
feel like debating about that
so there's someone on telegram
impersonating me this is also something
that's being brought to my attention
um
I'm gonna make an announcements
I want to make an I'm putting it on
Discord
I'm also going to share this in a
telegram as well
and I'm going to share this in the
telegram
okay
all right
so I'm gonna make an announcement I do
not message people on telegram I don't
do that I've never done that so if
someone's messaging you about crypto or
something I have never messaged anyone
on Telegram
now some like one or two people have
messaged me on telegram about stuff and
added me to the group chats I barely
there's barely any like I barely respond
right
but I will never ever message anyone on
Telegram
I will never initiate any kind of um
talk with anyone on Telegram and before
you think you're speaking to me on
telegram make sure to verify it by
pinging me in the Discord or messaging
me on Discord or sending me an email
to confirm that it's me because if you
don't get a confirmation that it's me
um you know
it's not me right
yeah they're trying to sell crypto
okay so this is apparently uh some shit
going on in the telegram
hello greetings I would like to extend a
very warm appreciation for being part of
my CH and how long you been in my
Channel Do You Believe jeans are real
this person's an idiot they just said
yes
okay I clearly don't think they're real
so this is a really bad impersonator at
least they don't know shit about me and
it's not personal
standing up for your rights lawfully and
peacefully trust you're aware of the
banks and stock market was going to
crash soon and how prepared you are
we are going to have a crash in our
economic system
many people lose money
have you invested into digital currency
yet Johnny do you Johnny you really
thought this was me first of all the
dead giveaway should have been I don't
you know what I mean like how how could
this have been me wow how did you even
fall for this okay
so yeah this is a telegram uh crypto bot
it's not me okay
definitely not me
that is definitely not me and has
nothing to do with me
just to be clear
I feel as though there were other things
I wanted to attend to today
overall I will summarize the problem
like this
the international crisis gripping in the
crisis gripping International communism
appears to relate to the question of the
sublime origins of the party Institution
insofar as this institution has taken
for granted and is not mediated
in the form of a Sublime encounter
between the individual
and it thank you so much Mr Magic I want
to talk to you bro how would I go about
making that happen
just tell me what you want to talk about
and the Discord and the show requests
but
the thank you so much for the five the
question is
sorry that corruption leads to a
forgetting of the Sacred history of
communism
it leads to the D sublimation and the
desacralization of communism
to the point where
it just becomes an extension of American
modernity of here always always already
refreshing Here and Now liquidating and
forgetting the sacred tradition and past
of communism
the point is not so much to establish a
sacred history of Communism through a
singular institution like a equivalent
to the Catholic church but rather to
recall
and remember the way in which Communism
participated in the story of
civilizations
Russian and Chinese
Reviving their past and their Traditions
by way of their positive content
the tradition of Communism has only has
meaning in relation
to
the way in which it has Unleashed and
tapped into
these substantive traditions of various
different peoples civilizations and
histories
is there a way to talk to me without
Discord
um no
there really isn't actually
in any case
I streamed earlier than usual today
which was at 10.
so tomorrow I'm gonna kind of drip feed
it maybe tomorrow will be at eight
hopefully six possibly eight
um everything I want to talk as a normie
uneducated about everything getting some
tips
do you
I don't know if you do
anyway guys I'm going to continue to
struggle to go live earlier
we had a great stream today
and uh
I will see you
tomorrow
earlier one last thing
there's one thing I really appreciate
from that Japanese Communist party video
now that I think of it there's one thing
I really love and appreciate about it
and that is
