i'm going to debate is the ol right now
it's a
someone sent twenty dollars thy you grag dealer right
no no introduction not we're going to funk and just do this i am going to buck and debate a t
i
so let me do this
all right before he fuck and runs away
out spoken about you know like
the support for like
ukraine and other you know disastrous you know foreign policies i think you are seeing a growing kind of and
nw
there's been pushback from
even some people on the left you know that are ohble
the rights you know too isolationist or whatever but there does seem to be a growing
um
did they kick him out to put house in no my
now
why should the why should the communist party tail the democratic party
the communist party should support the dams because on this really any it's really easy
n i can't hear anything dude ut the fuck up and let him talk
blasted
but he's as
like i said on basically any issue worker rights
you'll see that dams are a little bit to the left of republicans you talk about minimum wages you talk about union power
thems are going to do a little bit better
easy
ok so but why does that mean that the communist party should support the democrats
because we've seen if you want to look at like the most powerful socialist movement has been in the last forty fifty years andentrison to the democrats
what are you going to apose what examples what examples can you give of that
sure there are more people in d s a in congress today than have been in congress and a third party ever
yeah i i'm aware of the d s a is growth but i'm not sure what relation the d sa should have to the communist party or what relation does that have to a communist party i mean there's plenty of social democratic parties in europe
that doesn't make them communists
sure i mean so
i guess there's two parts of this one probably i don't know what you personally believe has but
unless you believe in like
a you know an armed revolution or something
the path to socialism that remains is a sort of permanent reform is the term that the swedish types use
and a lot of like d s a or c p s a types like the term
nonreformist reform
with the idea that you're sort of like cranking
society to the left you're trying to give workers a little bit more power
give like the average person a little bit more power make it harder and harder for the risch to fuck people over
yet but the problem with that is that there are qualitative ruptures
that this allow a steady path of progress or reform
a for example i mean there was a period in which the social democrats were in power
throughout well not necessarily fully in power but they enjoyed great power
and then they were completely unable to for example stop the rise of fascism in both italy and in germany
so there comes a point of a kind of qualitative
moment in which
there is a populistic
sentiment against a for example socialist bureaucracy or social democratic bureaucracy
how can that be reconciled within the framework of a
permanent path of
you know progress or reform
sure so
i guess i just note historically
the sock thems didn't have anywhere near close like absolute or even strong majority control of germany
i want to say the sock ms were getting twenty five percent near the end of the german republic and the commies were getting like
fifteen
and the nazi party was also getting about
m like
that that added up together percent
m so like the far right and like the two left parties were roughly evenly matched
which meant that the centrists were mostly like liberals who inclined towards the right and monarchists
m it was like it was pretty easy if you look at studies on like the elites of germany
to makt
i think i have this one study forty five percent
of german elites sided with the nazi party
so this wasn't like a thoroughly socked down society
well i'm aware i'm just using it as an example because
the social democrats within germany
did enjoy tremen i mean a relative tremendous success in being able to actually integrate with the german establishment and become a more or less legitimate party within germany
and i'm not saying they controlled most of germany but
they were probably the largest mass popular movement at the time i think it might be fair to say that in terms of like
the extent to which they were embedded within german civil society and were able to mobilize different sectors of german the german people in german society
but
when the when this decisive moment of the breakdown of the system came
they came to be associated with the establishment for the average german person and
that's why i kind of reject the idea that if the communist party joined with the social democrats and i know there's that's a complicated issue i don't want to get into it because there's another side to that story
where the social democrats were cracking down hard on the communists and rejecting proposals for an alliance but i don't want to get into the nitty gritty of that let's just
we let's just entertain the official story right let's just entertain the official story for sake of debate
t who's who's to say that who's this who's to say the communist party
would have been able to enjoy the support that it did
if it had simply
you know went along with the social democrats
o who because you know people have noted that many of the people who were supporting the communists
were people who would have otherwise supported the nazis
because of that dissatisfaction of the social democrats
i mean so i
you said you didn't want to geto the history i don't know how deep you want to get in
but
uh i guess
one thing i'd like want to a if we're going to cap it here is the
three arrows
recently put out or maybe a month ago put out an episode on how weak
the legal structure of the vimar republic was
that like basically after they they did the quote unquote sokdem revolution or like
was it nine hundred eightd revolution
i
it the legal structure was so weak that most of the judges were still like monarchist judges inherited from the old germany the old reactionary german
um
so like i guess what he points out is that
when they created it was already sort of
doomed to failure
why i don't think that's necessarily true because if you have if you have an understanding of politics where
there's a special relationship between political power and mass movements and people
that fundamentally bypasses institutions
i don't necessarily i think these kinds of details
i mean i've seen i've seen so many explanations for why specifically it was the nazis were able to come to power i mean but you a kind of demotic element is always missing right
i'm i'm you have to understand i'm a maoist and i'm saying i'm a maoist because i share mao's belief that
if you can unite political power with the masses with people
institutions are no problem you can basically move mountains and sure from the perspective of an analysis there's a fundamental failure on part of the social democrats
to actually
successfully
maintain the loyalty of the german people
i think we gardless of the judges that were
still whatever i mean there was an inability for them
to actually
get the support of the german people
sure so
i guess i'm going to pivot a bit
to talking about these things more abstractly rather than the context of germany because it makes it easier
talk about it without getting way into the nitty gret
um
so
the idea of like maoist and leninist revolutions demands a mass politics where great masses of people are willing to vote revolt
join an armed revolution
no ah
yeah i mean i you if you reala know a very a very small minority of people are actually going to participate in revolts
with the passive support of the majority
i mean i think that so during the russian civil war roughly ten percent of people died
yeah like these were not might but wasn't the majority of those weren't the majority of casualties owed to things like famine and disease
a big junk were yeah but like soldiers i want to say made up like four percent of the population during the active phase of the war
coort you said forty percent
four
yeah like so butre yeah the mean theres there is universal conscription
force forcible conscription
on both sides
m
you know
and then there was also
yeah so i mean
you the majority of people are not and then also that's a civil war that's after the revolution so it's not necessarily comparable
yeh
i'm just going to pull up a let in quoe
because this is something i was literally writing about actually
in onineteen thirteen
when lenin defined the term revolutionary situation
he gave three reasons why russia was in a revolutionary situation
one
people in russia had a very low quality of life which was inconsistent with the rising productivity of its capital
two is that it had a rising class consciousness and again its quality of life was too low
and three the upper classes cannot
rule and govern in the old way
and he expands on this in another nine hundred fifteen article i don't have up at the moment but
in both of them the point that he's making is that
you need great masses of people
who are
really really dissatisfied with their their lot know i think i think that's one leting quotes about just to just a capit
talks out
intensified oppression starvation poverty lack of rights and humiliation
are talking
nineteen thirteen russia
so starvation here is literal
yeah i understand but i think um a few things
that
he's not necessarily saying that the majority of people are going to participate in a revolution he's rather talking about the circumstances that would make
a revol mae that that would give fertile ground
to the likelihood of a revolution now it's very important to understand
lenon's perspective here
lennon is not saying that this this this is going to make
you know this means we can just initiate a revolution voluntarily because the conditions are proper
lenin is quite literally predicting a revolution is going to happen regardless of what he and his his
his comrades do
and what lenin's perspective is that
is that the bolseviks have a unique opportunity to
lead this revolution or at least influence the terms
acquire hegemony over this revolution
soad the for lenin the revolutions and inevitability
and then roughly speaking in abstract terms i think the criteria lenin gave
for
that period of time because if you're a marxist all he's talking about is a contradiction between the relations of production and the forces of production broadly speaking
that apply that holds true for today
probably more than any other period
you know in the post war period
so
by post war i mean post world war two
so in the west i mean so i mean
people don't literally have to be starving but there does need to be a drastic divergence between what people's expectations
for a standard of living are and what the actual standard of living is
and i don't i don't necessarily think it has to go to the point of
starvation although with food shortages on the horizon look
right yes so the reason i was mentioning literal starvation is
when we look at the history of rich democracies how many revolutions have there been
none when was the last social successful socialst revolution of rich democracy
right never happened
yeah
and so the point that a lot of reformist theorists wright you know there's there have been reformist writers since bernstein
they write that
workers
as much as we might hate to admit it have more to lose than their chains
they quite literally own things
and have wages high enough
that joining an armed revolution represents a real threat to like their quality of life
in a way that someone on the verge of starvation doesn't have
to think so i
i don't think the goal for marxis is to try and provoke
any
first of all
they're not not only are they not trying to provoke an armed revolution
they're not trying to provoke any kind of revolution whatsoever
the goal rather is to maintain a revolutionary position what that means is basically you never sell out to the establishment
like the social democrats did on the eve of the first world war and that's what i think is really lacking from that perspective
is that you're not you're not talking about a few isolated cases of a rich democracy you're talking about an international system
basically ands probably heard this before it's an international system of imperialism
and there is a relationship between the ruling class for example within
be democratic countries
and
the imperialists the
system that is extended abroad now i'm what i'm saying holds like pretty much
true for lenin's time in a really precise way i guess today is a little more complicated
but
there is a material relation s
on the political front that means a gradual
yeah
so
you and i agree
that according to like lenin and lenin's you know derive theories like maoism
um
that a revolutionary situation is necessary for revolution in the nine
he literally sailed
to the marxist it is indisputable that revolution is impossible without a revolutionary situation like quote unquote but so we both agree rights but the circumstances
is that there is no revolutionary situation in modern rich democracies
that path
as much as we might hate to admit it
it's closed
no i still
you see
this is lacking the global perspective
now in a vacuum is it likely that theres a revolutionary situation in a rich democracy
no but when you factor into the global situation and especially the things like the energy crisis within europe
the increasing level of economic instability and polarization within the united states
i mean some i think some kind of social revolution as broadly
a as
you can take that as broadly as you want
is inevitable in the united states and in europe
in this these unprecedented times
do do i think that's going to like follow some stereotypical
storming of the winter palace no but a broad social revolution as in
a breakdown of the current prevailing institutions and their replacement by new ones
i
a you know
circumstances of extreme political instability
an inability for the old paradigms of social organization
and the organization of society to
actually adjust to the changes in the forces of production i think these things are already happening
it's not it's not necessarily inevitably going to be like this
i mean it's not likely to be any kind of communist revolution
this rate
im
as a matter of fact i'm not even sure if it's so much revolution as much as it's like civil war like general breakdown
and instability not necessarily
in order for there to be a revolution in like that sense there has to be political forces primed
to unify the country in in a new way which i don't think any forces
within the united states exist
to do so
i think you're severely underestimating the extent to which the international situation
has weakened
the foundations of like this permanent
stability that appears to exist
in the advanced western countries
i mean i think you know civil war is possible i think it's fairly unlikely
but
in general the question is if civil war did break out or if some sort of rupture some sort of attempt at civil war did break out
what position
do you want
lefty is the be in
do you want them to be in the position of like a bunch of unempowered third parties all squabbling amongst themselves over who the real c p usa is
or do you want them to have at least some hold on the reins of power some infiltration into the insistions of power
like
i think the answer is obvious but i think from square one the premise that the political subject as far as communists are concerned is going to be defined by people's ideologies
or even that
politics is defined by defined by a clash of values and differing values and ideologies
i think this is all beginning from a false premise
i don't really recognize leftys as a
considerable
political subject
in the first place i think that
because i'm a marxist and this is a
i guess that like the basic view marxis have that
the relations of production the politics is downstream from the relations of production basically
i think things like leftis and rightis i mean all that is
extremely tenuous that there's constant political realignments that have happened in the history of this country alone
since the civil war like the first civil war
so i don't really think that's like a
i mean what is a leftist i mean leftist today
are
take assuming foreign policy positions that the neo conservatives of the bush era were assuming so it's like
that just seems like a really tenuous and unreliable
way of
of dividing people's
dividing like masses basically
sure so
i get where this is coming from like the i agree to some degree with the marxist line
that
class struggle
is the primary mover the primary drive of like
struggle in general of history
but one of things like
what i guess i'm trying to outline is that we are in a historically unprecedented situation
we are in a situation where revolution is no longer feasible at least of the old kind
right so all the old models predicated on armed socialst revolution
those
don't work in a way that we'd want them to you can't just say do as lenon did do as maw did
because we don't live as mclennon did we don't live as mal did
you know recognize material condiitsion
it's the second thing that sort of unprecedented
is what i was trying to allude to earlier the workers have more to lose in their change
chains
and that results in a very different kind of class dynamic
workers now are not so desperately poor that the only thing they can think of is scrabbling for economic gains
instead whatll we've increasingly seen that the term scientists like to uses is post materialist
that for better and for worse
people are
way more consumed with cultural conflicts
over like
you know trans rights abortion rights feminism so on
um
and we have to recognize that we can't just say that we want things to go back to the mass politics of the nineteen twenti s and ignore the material reality of earth
there's this quote
from j a cohen writing in one thousand nine hundred five
who says that history has shredded
some orthodox marxist predictions
because the proletariat for a while did grow larger and stronger but it never became the immense majority
and it has now been reduced and divided by increasing technological sophistication
of capitalist production
and we expect that to expand right like the truly destitute like a deeply impoverished revolutionary working class is gone
it's not like fifty percent of the population it's not eighty percent
like even manufacturing workers are something a twenty percent of the population
we have to readjust our socialist theory
to the fact that we live in a world totally unlike
what the people back then were writing about
well i'm i'm the first person i mean that i've gotten in a lot of trouble for pointing out the fact that we're not living in the time of classical marxism or even in the time of lenin
but the conclusions you draw from that are the ones that precisely have you
earned me ire among these same progressive socialists
and i assume you would associate yourself with
but anyway i think what we're dealing with here is kind of too broad of narratives
so to begin with the
trying to remember the first thing you said with the you were asking about thems right and so said the there's something i wanted to say give me a second to remember the first thing you said you se you were talking about you
what was that exactly the first thing before that you had a second part where you're talking about the rising standard of living of workers and marxist predictions and then what were th the first thing you're talking about again
it was talk about the closing of the revolutiony situation rising standard of living
yeahh yayeah yeah yeah yeah so as far as that's concerned i think what you're not taking into account i think it's an overly simplistic narrative that
workers have gone basically too rich and have gont too comfortable
and basically now we're going to be focusing on cultural issues i think the first example i would have to point out to completely
i guess shatter that view would be
things like boco haram in nigeria which is defined explicit nigeria's not
it nearly as rich as the united states
that's precisely my point boko haram is literally saying
that women's education is horam it's forbidden
so it's a it's something organized around cultural issues
and yet these people are coming from an extreme situation of desperation and poverty at least compared to the united states
so the prevalence of culture and then it's not to mention the things like the nine heenred seventy nine iranian revolution
i mean just you could all over the world you find this that
the culture war is by no means explicable in terms of people being too comfortable or too privileged
that's that's the point i was trying to make
the second point i would like to make
a with regard to that is that
i think youre also not taking into account that
i mean
if if you can give people a button a two buttons to press
to you know blow up the entire system or maintain a pretty steady comfortable standard of living
obviously they're going to choose the second button and that's kind of
the assumption you're making here is that
this is the choice people are faced with and so operating under as sumption like ah obviously people
aren't want to enga they're not going to engage in this like dramatic revolution they're going to want to keep their standard of living
the problem is that the forces and factors which sustain that
familiar standard of living
are so drastically divorced
from the choices of everyday people in other words we're talking about a basic separation
between individuals and the real means of production
right
for example look at things like the price of energy
the price i mean ph yeah people want to have low gas prices
but look how much that's outside of their hands they can literally do nothing about that they can do nothing about
the rising costs of gas the rising costs of food
they're completely powerless to change the shortages
that are on the store shelves much like soviet citizens were it powerless to change
that you know shortages of bread and the shortages of food on their own shelves i mean we have just as much of a relation to what happens
as far as the supply chains
leading to i mean we probably have less of a relation if i'm going to be honest
to wal mart
as in a centrally planned socialist system
so all of these what i'm trying to say is that all these forces are very drastically outside of the
like
spear of being able to make decisions
for ordinary people it's not it's not as though like people have this proverbial
lot of land and they just have their own farmsteads
and it's like ok give up your farmsteads and take up the gun and go fight
no i mean
like the our economy is so immensely socialized
so immensely interconnected and so immensely driven by outside factors
the question of
for example a revolutionary situation all i mean by that is a breakdown
of the prevailing political institutions including circumstances of civil war
actually revolutionary is probably not a good word because revolution entails like a replacement of that somehow but
that's not going to be decided according to political agents or political subjects
that's going to be us i mean look if there's no food on the shelves
and people can't
you know fill their tanks they can't fill their cars with gas
i can guarantee there will be a breakdown of social order
in any western country it's just a fact
but the problem is that those are very likely possibilities in this kind of new
circumstances that we're entering into
so
but but i think also let's let me you're kind of straw manning me to begin with though because as far as like what
actually what a revolution actually is i think you're just kind of straw manning me with this assumption that it's like this
you know this adventurous romantic dramatic event where we just like
oh i want my values to be enforced i'm going to take up the gun
no revolutions are like
tiny moments
within a like much broader
moving there's so much like
bigger moving pieces and so much
bigger and more intricate processes
that
are happening in the background
like in comparison to this like one singular
comparatively even comparatively trivial event that is a revolution
and that's why like if you look at us communist right here we call ourselves communists at least
we're not just saying oh yeah don't vote dems
a you know we're going to take up arms for revolution we're saying things like
we need to embed ourselves within the maga movement we need to go to the fertile soil not out of which a revolution we're going to command people to
throw themselves at a revolution but
out of which a independent party of the working class can be built and can be made
so and then and then so it's like speak so we kind of brought up three things
y first is whether post materialism is real
and
the fact that very poor countries and very religious cultures are also deeply conservative
i don't think it's a strong counterargument to the post materialist thesis
which holds that
as countries get really high income
it's not necessarily that cultural like impulses are getting stronger
it's that two things are happening one economic impulses are getting way way weaker
people are way less driven by the need to scrabble for a better life because their life better life is already partially here
um
so one of the key things that people point to on that
is
what's called education polarization
i'm sending you this article
wait why can't i send you some
you he block
just for the record i'm not going to read it so let's just
yh ok well i posted it in shat
um
and it's this article from picketti and a few other folks
showing how
the percent of people who vote left
who are educated
has dramatically shifted between the sixties and today
in oneousand nine hundred sixty they say across rich countries
the vote share of the left was minus sixteen percent
among educated people college educated
meaning the right got more votes in the left sixty percent more votes
but now
in twenty sixteen
it's almost plus twelve meaning again at the left gets like plus twelve percent more among college educateds
that's new
we're in totally uncharged territory with that
and the one theory for why that works is post materialism
people care about cultural issues
uneducate people tend to be more conservative educate people tend to be
less conservative
and so now we're seeing a realignment from economic issues towards economic and social issues
where left parties aren't just left on economics
that're also really left on economic issues we've seen a huge realignment there in virtually every country in the rich world
um
so
like the future for the left for better and worse
is the socially progressive
like the
that the fact is that
when we look here so
that's the first thing i want to talk about i'll talk about that bit the bit the whole like megacomnunism thing at the second
the second study i want the post was the
this article kellnitsk
you can look at this graph you know you don't have to read it but here's a graph
of
countries that had a revolution in a given year versus how rich they were
there hasn't been
in databases of revolution
a single country with a g d pper capita above the fifteen hundreds below the hasnen a country in like the twenty thousand and above it's hod a proper revolution
it really does seem like high incomes really buffer against revolution
um
so yeah maybe there will be a civil war but it will likely be a lot smaller lot more less violent than the ones we've seen in the past
so again for better and worse
the like roads forward to like mass change
does not include the armed socialist revolution
of like the nineteen tens the nineteen twenties the maoist of the nineteen forties and fift
it just isn't there anymore that's not a question of whether we like it or not it's not some voluntary choice
all this is mechanistic just like a revolutionary situation
is an objective fact
about the the economy and our social relations within
and of the subjective forces of communism
doesn't matter how subjectively powerful we are because economic conditions for a revolution just aren't there anymore
a and that brings us to the third point you were talking about magakammism the need to like infiltrate and make them
socialist
and on this one like
the numbers and behavior
the numbers within the republican party of people who are like genuinely aconomically left
just aren't there for this kind of movement to exist pew has pew research which does some really excellent polling probably some the best polling the game
has a typology study again you don't have to read it but i'll post you a pretty graph
they come in the wrong page
they define
the us
into
uh what is the seven
seven groups
and one of them
the quote quote populist right
is the one that you're trying to look for
they make up eleven percent of the voting public and eighteen percent of the republican party
they are a minority and both like a weak minority
ah
those are the only group when you ask republicans hate you want to increase taxes on the rich that's the only group that answers yes on majority
eighteen percent of the republican party
it just isn't there the numbers just aren't there
the facts are that like if you want economic left of views you have to look
in the democratic party
you have to look at like the most educated and socially progressive people
i like
you know i do't you know if this all works if the maga movement all works you turn them into comedies or whatever all for
it just doesn't seem like there's a numbers for it right now and i'm based on the trends that exist it's not going to
like it's not simple
this is also sort of mechanistics
low education
deeply religious people are not going to support on mass like economic left and social left values
or even just economic left value
all right so yeah again there's three things and i think the last thing you said is related to the first so all included there
um
the reason why
an educated people and more conservative whatever religious people
can in fact to get on board with a communist program
is proven by the very same history you cited that
in the nine hunenred sixti s or whatever the on nine hundred fifties
um
college education was a proxy for being more right wing
and
there's a reason for that
that isn't because people have become more wealthy compared to the past
it's because the nature of what the left is has changed from representing the interests of the working class and by the working class i mean people who
derive their means of subsistence from some kind of productive labor some kind of
like le like
un i know skilled and unskilled are historically relative but
relatively unskilled labor
you know right out of high school labor
not in professional or managerial positions that's the working class historically speaking at least
the left has changed its base
from
the working class
to college students and to professionals and to managerials and people who pretty much
think for a living
the working class has never
thought
for a living
the in kansas was a hotbed of
like
i guess left wing quote unquote political radicalism a hundred years ago
the working class base that was behind that weren't people who were like super educated about left wing issues or anything
they were salt of the earth rural people probably extremely religious
and yet they were participating in this kind of
radical leftist cotquote
the political movements
because it was their because it was both in their immediate material interests
but more fundamentally because it related to them on a lever
on a level deeper than
superficial
ideological values contrived
from institutional
m education
so i think what you're saying that the post materialism thing that you're talking about
that's not
that's not an indication that
because people have goneen richer it has made the pot you know it's
necessarily changed anything about who the revolutionary subject is
it's more that there has been a political realignment now the reason for that political realignment i have to spay yeah but i let you you know no what happened is that i let you speak so you're going to let me speak
so number two you can you just write a donresre so number two is that in rich countries
you're saying that there's never been a revolution in a rich country and you're measuring that for some reason by g d p
when all you could really do is look at it and say ok what is the reason for that it's probably because
that
relative level of poverty is a proxy for a lack of institutional stability
and political stability
and that begs the question what is the foundation for the political stability
that actually is that because people are wealthy or is there something more fundamental that's the reason for that
well i think when you take into account these extremely strong
the sensitive points underlying our system like
our dependence on energy prices and our dependence on the global
food prices and things like that he'se extremely small
sensitive points that can somehow like blow up the entire system and allow it all to unravel
you're not taking into account how things like that have emerged
you're saying yes there's never been a revolution in a rich country in history
sure
but is that because
revolutions can't happen in rich countries or is that because historically speaking
poverty has just been a proxy
for some kind of political more specifically institutional
instability
now as far as the institutional instability in the united states i'm going to wrap the number two up really quick
that close relationship between the institutions and the civil society that has been the glue of
political stability and social stability
i mean that's breaking down you're seeing it
coming from the mainstream media talking about the lack of trust and institutions
the whole thing with covert when people didn't trust anything
the scientists were saying the proliferation of so called fake news there's a complete breakdown is also january sixth where people doubted the results
of the when we can't talk about that on you tube but people doubt of the results of the election
so all those telltale signs at the essential level i think are there
now finally for the third thing
you are again
engaging in an error that i referred to before where you're basically trying to define people's positions on the basis of some kind of like abstract political spectrum
you know political compass values
this is something i actually addressed in my maga communism substack which is is the basis of political difference
based on differing opinions and different values do you just survey people like oh
should we tax the rich more and then you're going to define them as populist or not on that basis no you're going to define people's populism
not on the basis of how they're going to receive these like extremely loaded
signifiers that actually already tend to be like associated with
certain political factions
you're going to it's going to be defined by people's willingness to defy the institutions that rule over them
not in the name of any values or any kind of
ideology but
the very premises and the very basis
of the dissemination
of information ideologies and values it's not about
the policy positions that's the policy positions that people are in favor of
are extremely arbitrary they are in no way essential
in arriving at like the actual basis of why they have the political position that they do
politics is about power
it's not about the power it's not about how you want to exercise power what you want to do with that power
it's about the actual realities of who has power
and who doesn't that's actually what politics is about
so and of course that's underlined by
the social class element
so when you're saying like oh only eleven percent of republicans
are populaoce
i mean if you talk to anyone who lives in the midwest they would laugh at you for such a claim
eleven percent of the maga people are republicans are populius
and that's because when you ask them do you want to tax the rich something they're going to associate with bernie and a o c
people who they hate for obvious reasons and who they associate with their class enemies
of course you're not going to be able to come to a
of course you're not going to be able to appreciate the vast level of populsm that permeates
the republican party
but maybe if you change your wording and ask different questions like hey do you think our government
is currently captured by special interest do you think the people do you think like the media
is not telling the truth about what's going on in ukraine do you think that
for example our government isn't a real democracy and the whole thing is rigged
that's probably how you're going to be able to measure things like people's populism not
not not like snippets ofor fuckings like
policy signifiers that are already associated with the democratic socialists
new york
he was realdly he
oh i need to butt in for a second
and just let you guys know that i'm going to have to steal him in about thirty minutes because we have a a time slot to go give our groc or
to go pick up our groceries
so you've got about thirty more minutes with them ok
okay
wt this a senor houpe
ah
it's true i'm a couck and i'm whipped because i like to eat food to go get it faths weapons and batsters and in rocking m weapons
so i'm going to condense this down to the populaus otherwise this is going to be monologue s monologue
so
on the polling one
um
i'm posting a graph in the general chat
from you
you don't got to look at it has but
you know if you want to actually if i seems like you're trying to take this pretty seriously i think it's worth looking at
a
when you ask people
quote
business corporations make too much profit
the only group
that gets more than twenty five percent support among the right is the so called qunquote populist right
but i would i would respond the same way
well sure but what i'm saying is if you look at dead i'm a populist and i would respon let me just go through this right
every single democratic group over seventy five percent say yes only one in four republican groups say yes
pew divides the population into nine groups
doing some fancy math called a pca
which i won't get into but
they say that only roughly one in five republicans agree
only one of five republican groups agree with the statement that business corporations make too much profit over seventy five percent what's the s ch for another one
sorry what's that
what what why does that matter
because
the rub like
conservative
economic values are very commonle says nothing to do with term that your audience should look up is fusionism
for better and for worse the right in this country and basically every other country
is fairly economically conservative
i am to that
because i don't think that they're making too much profit i want people to make more wealth and more profit sure i agree with let
then let's do another one
taxes on household incomes over four hundred thousand dollar i don't i want to i want to limit sense we are maga communist program
is to like eliminate taxes we don't want to increase taxes
what is your road to socialism how do you think that
empowering the mega rich
builds a more social surce because i think when you're s what both yeah what both of those snippets have in common
basic what you're trying to say is that ok we take the existing
the economic institutions that exist in our society
and we're just going to like suck more money out of them or like limit them more
and then give the transfer the wealth to more people rather than actually tap into the source of the creation of wealth
which is like butotom piss it's the fucking means of production
so when you ask me like what my position is
i don't want i don't i don't think corporations make too much profit i think what corporations are doing
is limiting the ability for the average american to make profit
and when he pitched that to an average conservative maga person
they're going to agree these are monopolies that are stifling the ability for us to have an opportunity
we're not pocket watchers who have a problem
that you know rich people have yachts and they have gucci bags and they have gold
sure we love well right we just think
that they're preventing
the little guy from having an opportunity at that
and that's the whole that's the actual cce the non populist position the establishment position is in fact one of de growth
it does want to roll back it does want to decrease wealth it does want to decrease
profits in general including for the average person
because that in that way it can consolidate
its institutional position
because this wild proliferation of wealth
creates the basis for rot counter counter hedemonic institutions for example peter teal
someone i don't agree with
but he's a billionaire because he's a billionaire he's allowed to start things like rumble
which are t which are challenging the monopoly of youtube and the other things
donald trump he was like a billionaire or something so he was able to fund his own campaign
so wealth is a dangerous thing in a lot of ways
from the perspective of the establishment
so
let me ask what you think
socialism is is it a means of production is it a mode of organizing
social
like economic relations
i don't i don't think socialism is a specific form of organization at all
i think it's about what a mode of production is
um
what ends it serves what are the ends of production
are those and social in nature or are they private
in nature are they like alien private and
abstract in nature as a production has some social relations
marks noted that a commodity can't exist it can't be profitable rs it serves one's use right
but yhat but what on but that that's a social relation what happens to be but that social relation happens to be defined
by an antisociality that is killing humanity that's oppressing humanity that's alienating humanity
according to mark
sure so one of the big
dealenating things that marx wants to do is abolish class
abolish the class of people who own capital
no no that's you're making it seem cism the man this is not sen this is not an action marx is advocating for this is an incidental result
of some inevitable forces of history
that marx is anticipating
how exactly do we expect giving mega billionaires more mega billions
to lead to a mode of production which abolishes billionaires
peter theel
isn't going to support
you're making an egalitarian post scarcity society i don't need him to to
because i first all not if he has enough power to make rumble if trump has enough power to run for president and i i think you're misunderstandingre saying a lot of i'min howver sdy ok i'm explaining to you the reasons why the establishment is trying to
put a cap on the creation of wealth
were very like self preservation
selfish reasons
i't not necessarily a riving normative judgment
to what i think about peter t i'm just more telling you why the establishment finds it dangerous and why they do support higher taxes
and yada yad yada because
it god for if peter teels bad god forbid some like
you know some redneck living in west virginia can do like a start up and get rich and then implement
you know i mean create his own counterheadsemonic institutions like an alex jones or something but regardless regardless what i'm trying to say
i mean o thatdance also hate well the path the pat to socialism is not the path to socialism is bought is going to the source of wealth
which basically means smashing the monopolies
and
implementing the equivalent
of some kind of land reform that's not necessarily redistribution of arable industrial sorry arable
agricultural land
but it is this kind of polverization of the existing capture of institutions by monopolies
and
basically giving people their own solid economic ground and space
to start off from
whether that's in the form of like socialst all there's not socialism right
when you look yes it is a series of socialism ok
all of them demand an end to class strugglek that is like so one of no no no introl socalism them demands an acceleration
so social a socialist under socialism a socialist political program and socialism as a mode of production are two entirely different things
a socialist political program is an intensification of the class struggle
which is going to participate in the long historical process
by which the capitalist motor production transitions into the socialist one
before that happens there's going to be a dictatorship of socialists
or communist and that's called the proletarian dictatorship
it's not going to create a socialist system through policy
it's rather going to
wage the class war at the reins of state power
to ensure the transition which is an inevitable historical transition one that we argue
has already occurred despite the fact that the political power is still in the hands of i mean just trying to ask it plainly ok
so you have two ways to argue for like the socialism that you're arguing for
one is that it ahieves socialist goals the policies you're doing lead to some social s goal n class abolition like trying to lead towards most abun trying to lead to social ner no
the other is that you're trying to argue that it advances the means of production
that like it building up
the means necessary produt post abundance
right
but the problem is that all the things you're proposing like
giving more power to the wealthy are antithedical i'm not psld on your put show that higher inequality reduce i ne i me hol on words is you're putting words in my mouth ok
i'm not saying what i'm saying would actually in fact
this empower the ultra wealthy it just wouldn't do it
by
merely raising taxes or you know how does reducing taxes on the ultra rich decrease the power of the ultra rich
it tells helll me how go does of money
increasing increasing taxes on the ultra rich protects their monopolies because those tax raises
are also going to be felt by the little guy ninety nine percent obectively you know what a marginal tax rate is a tax rate on someone who's making more than a million dollars
does not affect someone mak gss than a million dollars so my my understanding of class struggle is that instead of simply stripping the ultra wealthy of their wealth
you unleash the forces of production that renders their wealth superfluous
so that first of all they will unleash the force of production how does billionaires having more money unleash the
like mode of production unleas the force of production it doesn't the haveter study shows inequality it's not about it's not about moyllres expect it's nots of dude you're doing even know you're arguing you don't even know what you're arguing it's not a bill grow if i want more growth to bring usup post scarcity
i don't want billionaires no no it's not about the billionaires it's about the monopolies that are the foundation of the reconomic biing that
then why are you talking about taxes at all
like you're talking about i want to get rid of taxes dude i don't care about tax ust getting rid of taxes make monopolies less likely
how does i because it because ws monopolies because it's weaker
because it allows for
counter hegemonic economic formations to have an easier chance of lifting off the ground in
challenging those monopolies
with the help of a let's say you know
proletarian dictatorship
but regardless a n i can misunderstand what i'm saying this argument
defend this argument that hey the guy who owns wal mart reducing taxes on the guy who owns wal mart will actually make it easier for alternatives the wal mart to rise up
what are you talking about be is you're not t because you're not just going to hold on you're not it easier ok to rise up in opposition you're not just going to reduce taxes you're going to destroy the special relationship that wal mart has
with the government now you're basical going to destroy wal mart ok libs ma argument what did you claimly plainly
we don't want to tax wal mart more
we want to eliminate wal mart and eliminate the entire network of corporations and walwic we want to destroy these things
in the first place and the way we're going to do that is by destroying the basis of their monopoly
which is tied to their fundamentally special their literal corporations
their very existence is dependent on recognition by the government
and the government declaring them somehow strategic sectors of the economy to be defended and promoted
there's going to be an institutional revolution
think of it as an e mouse cultural revolution but in economic way the the bosses and party lords are going to be brought down
and the presient is going to be brought up
ok so part of that was bringing down
you aren't bringing down the rich by getting rid of their taxes
but you can boost economic just just i rid of taxes getting rid of us just because just because our goal isn't to increase taxes
doesn't mean
we're not like
yeah you don't get rid of the ruling class
by not raising taxes on them
but that's we're not just not raising taxes on them we're doing a lot of other things that are actually more important
sure let's talk about like the f t c or the d o j
under republicans or democrats is it more antitrust or less antitrust
in practice who are the democrats and the republicans these are these parties are changing like fundamentally
i guess sir i guess i troub
yeah
under which which under trump's presidency where he was where the republican party was like filled with his political enemies and all that's changing now
the maga movement and you whits like the heads of the f t c
yet what did he did all those things as a concession to the republican establishment
which oh my god
this is just going to be like no true magnat to you every time a maga guy burns you you're going to find a way to excuse it
no i think i think that's no majority of republican support he actually i would i would i would actually as far as whats far as ok wait as far as what you're going to define as a maga guy
i would probably just go with what your own mainstream media says and i doubt your mainstream media' is going to say that trumps a point is john bolton a maga guy by any indic no is mike pompeo a maga guy
i'm not just saying that i mean asked the does the new york times thinkmga guys i don't well he dily fired people at those federal positions of power until he got one that he liked
so if he was didn't like what the f t c was doing why didn't he fire them the average tenure of someone at the cabinet level in trump's administration was less than a year
he was fucking fired people a the time this idea that oh he was he didn't f republican party is bullshit trum you didt necessary under trump happily let basically every merger happen
yeah because trump basically like let the republican party do whatever they want at that level
then it sounds like the maga movement that trump created isn't a properly populist movement
no maga candidate house y moing went on how how wouldud you possibly say that
how could you say the maga movement isn't a populist movement
because trump
didn't do enough to curb the influence of the establishment republicans when he was president
that doesn't change the that doesn't change the quality of the movement of people on the ground all over america
who are part of maga and were themselves disappointed
by that lack of action on part of trump
sure when you actually poll republicans and ask them for support on stuff like minimum wage it is abysmally low who cares
ok get rid of the why you d minumre of their movements i don't want to minimum wage get rid of it oh my got yeah i forgot that
the minimum wage one of the best pro worker policies we have is actually minimum wage is part mentaran economic policy the minimum wage is actu the minimum wage is still seven dollars it's chump change it's nothing yet it should be brbles right you agree that it should be doubled right
that's not how
with standards of living increase
it would increase standard of living no know mcdonald's across the street mcdonald's across the street like five month month five months ago
maybe it's changed mcdonald's offering like twenty bucks an hour
because of the labor foror thes as a shortage yeah the dynamics the dynamics the dynamics that determine like
first of bll
let's go back to the fucking basis of wealth to begin with because
don't we need an economy that actually taps into the basis of where wealth comes from
which isn't just printing more fucking money or changing the symbols or
changing ok we want the wages
to be this what are the sources of
the value and it crystallized within wages
like at the ultimate level
it's going to be the forces of production and how we actually produce material wealth
we don't have an economy that wits we don't know we don't have an economy that prioritizes that
so you can change the minimum wage to five hundred dollars or you can change it to a penny
but until you actually focus on the basis of the creation of wealth
where are you going to get he let's talk about that a book you should read is maritta masakudo's entrepreneurial state
one of the big things that
ms slightly lean towards nowadays and republicans fucking despies including mager republicans is industrial policy
is using the government to smur o maga in rod policy
ah
not the actual people that you thatt thatside fucking elects
no no do know i hod on hold no no frum when trump first hold on when trump first got elected in two thoand and sixteen
you realize that the first and most immediate enthusiasm of the trump atdministration that is literally what gave
rise to industrial policy discourse at the mainstream level
because they thought trump would give them that opportunity because of trump's rhetoric in the nature of his movement
yeah trump had this trump basically sold out to the republican establishment
and yeah i'm not denying he does that
but industrial policy has been at the core of maga from the very beginning
like rum the veryining what things to does the maga movement
not
this like maga communist movement
but what things did trump want to innovate to use the power of the state
to really build out that would improved
the means of production that would have expanded the creation of wealth
the underlying the maga movement is the need to ret one thing one product one category ok i'm going to explain to you what the maga movement is if you can't name it then you clearly haven't looked into it no the p your premises are wrong in the first place just because trom my god you just you don't you just i'm not ok t on dude i didn't say trump
was implementing policy in he brought it back to the national conversation so i he brought back to the ns what was he talking about what areas that he say i want i'm trying to explain to you what he was talking about because you have like this robotic brain you don't actually understand how politics works at a human level
what he was talking about
is returning and re industrializing america and returning
to the manufacturing jobs that people used to have before
obviously that must entail some kind of industrial policy
pretty simple
that's what the whole maga movement's about people see their fucking factories shut down and shipp overseas
and they want
real jobs back they want real production and real wealth
to return to america
that's that was the maga movement
from like day one
that's why industrial policy became like a conversation because and i forgot it i forgot the name
one of trump's first advisers
was even advocating i forgot his name specifically
he was advocating an emulation of the chinese model of building debt based infrastructure that later pays for itself
as the basis of the economy
that was literally something that was advocated to study the chinese model
of building infrastructure for america
so that was very early on in trump's administration very early i forgot his nameol specific w bad they forgot to actually pass
what trump said was going to be a three trillion dollars infrastructure bill right and republican right that's a single republican voted against the current infrastructure bill every mag have voted agains mag they all voted against it i would have voted against it too
oh my god
so this this is just so so frustrating when you say industrial policy what you mean is the vague promise of when you thinkro one do you th byt talk about industrial policy what i you think by sers w you think bidens infrastructure bill was a form of industrial policy
had it passed the original form before republicans and mansion cut it down to size literally yes
what would it have untiled originally
what would it have be i was originally even the current version involves some green public investment into building it's not industrial policys ons ofples carbon capture and so building out carbon capture and solar panels improving technology what solar panels are not indot policy dude that's not industrial policy that's bulls question
what does a factory need
electricity or no electricity
ok a factory needs to produce goods and it needs to produce do they need electricity to do so
yes but solar panels
so solar panels don't provide electricity that right
not nearly enough to power the economy it's interesting
over half of the new build out ofnew power plants in the world is solar panels
another thirty percent is wind
because we got solar panels through through industrial policy so goddamn cheap
that a solar panel you buy today is ninety nine percent she solar s y wen can only government doing it and will only know it will only ever be supp first of all those will only ever be supplementary
do
oilre and gas to nuclear that's more not like industrial policy
and they didn't fucking vote for it
right republicans don't care about any of this they're just lying to you there's just got yeat no no actually it's actually the things things biden the things biden if biden and his democrats were actually interested in passing that bullshit bill which they had no intention of
but which they just wanted to high ball to start high and then settle for the middle
they would have actually used w want to settle for nothing just making sure oh yeah yeah but but the if the democrats had balls they would have actually fucking got it passed by using the same tactics the republicans usually do
which is you republicans couldn't get anything pass except a tax cut for the rich
that's it that was their primary complis how did they get that how did they get thats ho di how did they get that one to pass
because they all agree that the rich should pay less taxes so how do they get it p obota care so how do they get
because they all because they're all paid for but paid for by rich people it's that simple so w i couldn't by not so so hold on so byden can't get his glori is because they don't agree because mention in s also bought paid for by oligarchs as is like half the blue dogs
ok but you realize that the democrats had the opportunity to pass their infrastructure bill but they chose not to
ah
this thing this shits are so far are you going to are you going to elect democratic socialist to replace mansion in cinema by the way because i'm pretty sure
that if you don't play ball with mansion and cinema
those people are just going to go to the republicans
cool if you want to build left policy
then you need to try and get like you want to make mention cinema not the center power it's really that easy why do they have so much power
because you need fifty votes in the senate
like
don't they also have power because if it was if they're not capturing the west virginia
a coal miner electorate than the republicans will
yet to some degree
that's why so if you want to give th you want to give those to the republicans
ah
no
why ok so how do you expect
to deal with the problem of mansion and cinema
without
scaring their electorate over to the republicans
well a lot of the things that you were talking about being real popular
like say a minimum wage or increase taxes on the well i don't think those are economically left
policies are universally popular
the easiest way to get more vot i don't g is the shift thems i don't th they are popular i don't think they are popular
ok
well that's an opinion in reality the vast majority of people support fifty one do you think that do you think that polling people's opinions on policy means it's popular
i think it's a good proc no i know it's not it's only popular it's only popular no it's not ries res only ever going to be opular hold on it's only ever going to be really popular
when it's enough for people to go do something for
if they're not going to do anything for these things and they're just
yeah i guess that sounds good that doesn't mean it's popular it just means
people it just means a majority of people are not outright hostile to and aren't willing to go vote against it
but that doesn't mean they're going to get off their fucking ass and like give a fuck up to go vote for those things
which they don't
or that's why these things o't get pass support
for minimum wage is not one to one in polling actual action
true and yet
that same year that trump won florida by three percent
a fifty dollar minimum wage won by i think ten percent
and because it's god damn popular
two
who cares
because one it's good policy and two it's popular policy ok we actually want more left w so you want to fiften dollars minimum wage
yeah and by twoentusy and twenty five is a proposal and florida it absolutely makes sense now i don't ok i want to i want to actually collapse this logic to its real premises
so you want a fifteen dollar minimum wage because it's going to marginally improve people's lives
you know substantially yeah they were very very very maybe marginally right and like a fifth proverty would go down by like a fifth if instead of instead of being a political
poverty will go down by a fifth if we increase the minimum wage to fifteen dollars
yeah
where have you where do you get that
sure so when we look at past minimum wage increases i think it's something like every
dollar that you increase it
it increases incomes near the minimum wage
by roughly like one to two thousand what about the prices
prices have a very slight increase it's like a one dollar wage increase like a point zero six price increase
so you're getting like ninety four percent of the benefit
ok so you're claiming that fifteen dollars minimum wage is going to reduce poverty
so what about what about so you so what about the types of jobs that people have are those types of jobs that can get people out of poverty or
are just basically i mean at this point why don't you just be like andrew yang which i am for by the way just say u b i why do you want to make people
after humiliation all of these at once because they empower worker no because the corekuus because youpll see through it as you haves m it n know if theesn't epower anyone is to remove the owner class to abolish the owner class and to decommodify labor
which together make class abolition that's one of the excep i don't i don't care i'm not rell youre ho i don't really care about this pipe thre yeah
now trying to so labsus logly lets worker power over timan try trying to are first of all i do not believe that increasing minmum waste of
fifteen dollars is going to reduce poverty
by a fifth
second i'm not convinced of that
second of all i
i think it might marginally improve some people's lives a little bit
but if that's what you're interested in doing what instead of being like a political figure online why you just like volunteer for a soup kitchen
because political change affects millions of people
what
like this is a this been a lion since the n yeah but but pops is regarss noll listen as far as the diorce work hod on is' far
but as far as the difference you can make as an individual you can affect much more people
by going into a soup kitchen
than by the extremely incremental effect you're going to have on the info war
that might what change like a five people's voting patterns
if i can get like i don't know a one percent increase in d s a s power
and d s a and you wre years you're not going were people not even vingson
it's not it's not that hard to get a one percent increase it's only a five years
yeah easy ok ok you want to increase the d s as membership
one percent in five years
yeah like i thougt was that how is that going to change anything
sure sa has gone from zero members in congress to four
they've gotten something like three hundred maybe what is it like so you think on sa doesn't have enough people to elect to congress right now they need more people
h yeah the more power d s a has in congress wait you're saying the d s a is membership it doesn't have enough members
the pool from to elect a congress so it needs more members
in order to elect more to congress how does that make sense
the d sa probably has what twenty thousand members
so you're saying they need twenty one
mean look four members in congress twenty thousand members
so you're saying twenty one whatever i know the math is wrong it's five percent that's not one percent
but let's just say for the sake of argument twenty one thousand
that's not mathematically that's not going to lead to
like even a tiny fraction of a person in congress
so like what are you what are you arguing
sure i mean if you actually believe this you also wouldn't be doing political advocacy
because no but i'm not the one who thinks al i don't think politics is about
harm reduction and i don't think politics is about
moderately making people even if it was about making power even if it was about changing like the fundamentals whatever you want to frame it as you also have basically no power to change minds on mass you are hoping to spark a larger movement you're hoping to get your like ideas into the minds of really influential people that's what the d s a is doing that's what bernie's doing that's what a o c is doing the reason they'l talk about fifty minimum wage is because then more people support fifteen dollar minimum wage the fail that's how we not
forty percent of the dms
i'm sorry what was it forty two of fifty dems in the senate voted for fifteen dollars i'm not necessarily it i'm not necessarily against fifteen dollars minimum wage i just don't think it's important enough to make a political see
politics are not raft things yes but on how would my on your control listen abot it but politics is not about policies policy doesn't fucking matter
no
what
so i'm just trying to remind you that youl comome
well
i think hed out happy to talk to you some other time i got to head out i see
yeah by
all right i guess that was that
ok know i was going to say politics is not about policy in the first place so it's like
you're not going to organize people around these policy snippet points because people see policies as part of like a polarity
youy seem like policies a part of an agenda
so people hear like oh
i want more socialization i want more fifty dollar minimum wage and all that's the democrats agenda
the democrats agenda is the great reset so it's about these
about these overarching agendas
that people see
at defined political differences
it's the agenda that matters not like the
specific detail of policy
um
but yeah that was like extremely
short notice
people in the discord were talking so this is what happened people in the discord were like
oh my god this guy's doing a terrible job debating s t on i was like who's debating s t l
and they were like
saw the c p usa account and i was like where is this on twitter space and they're like no they link me the discord
and i like i'm going to ambush him and i just came in and i just walking i guess i just debated him
but we didn't really get to like the thing about political strategy and like
whether the democrats should be tailed or not
we just kind of goten this like extremely abstract
stuff about revolutions
people' standards of living and stuff
but
yeah i mean again
i wish someone in the c pusa would debate me
that was a dsa guy
i would really wish someone in the c p say would debate me because
you know it's nobody in the c pusa ever addresses the argument
even if what your goal is is to get democrats in power let's say like be democrats in power would
be a more hospitable environment
to the c pusa
something that's not true by the way
really not true by the way
because democrats are in power and the environment is not hospitable to them
what like
what makes you think that
using your party to advocate voting for democrats
is going to make that outcome more likely
wouldn't the communist endorsement of democrats hurt the democrats prospects if anything
it's kind of common sense isn't it
but yeah
so that was extremely short notice i missed some donos
theres a few
thank you so much john appreciate you so much mo if you look at the data what you find might surprise you
yeah
i missed the donus
beuse i just wanted to debate
b thank you so much harold appreciate you man
we shate you tie
b thank you so much for
political distinctions do not matter
college kids don't make this country run
the revolutionary subject will always be the people who perform the general labor that runs a country
but he you so much otto
silence the glasses wars
my only source is alllaa
thank you ma'am appreciate you
chait you'n
good morning revolution holy shit amiriea with the twenty thank you ma'nm appreciate it
you say it you man
bas
thank you so ch this guy supportserialism
s for social democracy by expropriating the labour and natural resources of the rest of the worldc classic soaked andpositioned o led to two world wars
bas
thank you so much chrimall industrial capital doesn't exist
it's financing rendeer
we have no pduction to apply marxism to within the first world
precisely thank you so much chrismas
the dsa is faling apart in twenty twenty two
they are literally down thirty percent in membership in this time period
especially after the bowman fiasco
yeah i'm not i don't even know what the bowman fiasco is i'm not even sure what that is exactly
but i don't doubt it
but it is so much beyond liberalism surprise debates are the best debates
yeah i think it's always kind of like oh is a revolution going to happen in america
i think there's this like idea that like oh yeah you're a communist so you're like you're just waiting for that storming of the winter palace
american style and it's like no we have a pretty pragmatic and sober approach to american politics
as far as what it takes to build a communist movement
a movement of the working class
that's not premised by some kind of like values you want to implement
it's premised by an acute understanding of the alignment of social forces
who do you side with
do you side with the americanlas or the lipshitz thank you some of the the twitter people took over the official discord channel
yeah i sall that i saw that
super based is this is this no this is not it
this is this twenty thirty six
one that i'm in right now
but that was a interesting debate
not really
is i'm actually kind of hungry
and i don't got food
that's ok i need to curb my fucking food intake
that've been fucking pigging out like
fat for
yeah minimum fifteen dollar minimum wage is chump change
who can fucking live off fifteen dollars an hour
thank you so much sok to mak really
advocating a fifteen dollars minimum wage which would have barely even cut it in twenty ten
to be implemented by twenty twenty five
with the official inflation rates currently near ten percent but i'm saying what it sho it's like it's like withins like you talk about
fifteen dollars an hour say ok
what about inflation
it's such like a false
place to begin with
we when i say we are literally in revolutionary times
i'm not trying to be like a
larper
saying like we are witnessing a chp a breakdown of
the current superstructure
and the current relations of production
because of changes in the forces of production andrew yang talks about it he calls it the fourth industrial revolution
well it's happening
doesn't mean communists are going to win hell no it doesn't
but it does mean this is a time of change
like extreme change
so
and there's this unique significance of china that i think makes communism
very relevant
in this day and age
but it's not just it's not just about communism it's about what is communism actually about it's about humanity humanism
and it's what doogan says we're facing a post human world
the great ceys
its tranomand that p are more wealthy and middle class but it's missing that most people are in debt
mortgages credit card debt
auto deet and so on yeah because i'm kind of because i'm like a lacanian
the way i see things in terms of like meaning
signifiers
so even if
even
this is what people don't fucking understand i
revolutions usually start out among the most privileged
not the least privilege the most privileged
then it kind of trickles down
it's has nothing to do with how desperate you are
you know you want to know what's going to measure economic desperation
your willingness thank you diogenies the unelected federal reserve is driving wages down as we speak
pew research is a jokeea
but it's like economic desperation is going to be
a proxy for like
crime and depravity
it's not going to be a fucking proxy for
wanting to carry out a fucking revolution
goinga be a fucking proxy for like joining a gang or some shit
i don't know why people think that
revolutions always happen among the most privileged
first
always in history
i don't know why
because the most privileged are the ones who it's like the canary in the coal mine
if you're a privileged person
you are
you are a person who is cultivated in the art
and in this stream of meaning
through thought and through art and through literature
and you're the first person that's going to notice the cracks in your phenomenal
horison you're goinga notice these contradictions and cracks
and these are going to lead you to possess revolutionary feelings
if you're
m
committed to them
it's actually people who are
um
put it this way
when you're rich
and you're beholden to your material interests you're not really rich
rich people aren't out here saying oh i got to
i got to figure out how to make the most amount of money rich people are sitting here doing
i've made so much fucking money
that now my life is about art
now my life is going to museums
now my life is about the environment
that's what it really means to be fucking rich
when you're
see donald trump was not a rich man ok
donald trump was the guy's like money money money and he's got the golden hair and he's got the fucking suit and he's like the stereotypical capitalist
that's not a rich guy
that's a poor guy
it's the poor guy that's grinding out here it's the poor guy that's trying to get more money
it's the poor guy that's all about the money
that's the poor guy
the rich guy is above money because they have a enough of it
right
people all fucking get that shit
you know the rich dude is dressing like a bum
it's the poor dude that's flashing all this
you know what i mean
having the
you know what i mean it's like
people get everything backwards but it's because people
they're like oh the pew research studies have fought the study man
what the story
see the reason trump was such a populist was because
it's the poor guy who's looking at trump i'm grinding just like him i'm just like trump
bill gates is richer than trump you think people can relate to bill gates no because bill gates on't give a fuck about the money
he's not about the money
trump he's about the money
so
that's why we're mister crabb's communist by the way
we are mister crabb's communists
by the way
we are mister crabb's communists were mister crab's maoist
than juping mr krab's thought that's what we do here
okay
because we do give a buck about the material concerns we do give a buck
about making your daily bread and shit we do give a buck about the grmd
we do give a fuck about that here we're not sitting a
oh we're above it all no we're not above itt all man
get your money up man money's everything
marx advocates for a heavy progressive graduate attacks in the communisman effects so
the communist manifesto is not a guide to action
re ressive tax
we're not going to abolish taxes guys china has a bucking tax
we just want to lower them
a lot
mhm
because want to destroy the fucking bureaucracy the goal is to destroy
the bourgeois socialist state
bureaucracy
that means unleash the productive forces to the maximum degree
and then eventually we will be like enver hoges albania and we'll have no taxes at all
you mean smash monopolies you meaning appropriate and nationalize kind of ya thank you would
the nature of biden's renewable energy infrastructure programmes can be characterized by the fact that they are oftentimes sponsored by every source an energy monopoly with low customer approval ratings
there you go it's those monopolies that are in charge as they've always been
it's always those god dam monopolies it's always the same ones
it's always the same ones and you think if it's a monopoly they're going to be doing what's in the best interest of the people you got it the other
you got it totally twisted
because it's not even an incpient mop but monopoly
but yeah it's a combination of nas so
anything that can become a monopoly
should just be nationalized
that's what i think if it can become a monopoly just nationalize it
and then because nationalization should
and then when you nationalize it
you cut down like that like a tree you're going to cut it down to its most simple functions
that includes cutting the workforce
by a lot
and then
more good morning rebel thank you so much dr mecca grilla appreciate youn
and then once you do that
you can have more opportunities for incipient businesses to arise
from the soil
because people have more free time
and more opportunities
opportunity is everything
but you say you would appreciate
not only does ever source market itself as green it purposely wise at other small petroleum companies to further secure its monopoly on energy
they also get accused of overcharging all the time
there you go
energy i think i think one thing we're going to be adamant about in america
maga communism ok
this is one very fundamental fact of maga communism we're very flexible on policy but here's one fundamental fact
we need to nationalize our energy
that is like a non negotiable
nationalize all the fucking energy
period
but not by the u s federal government by a new institution the you sa stell out here thinking raising minimum wage will somehow get the comcast guide in my house thirty six hours faster to fix my goods and the reason we don't need to talk too much about nationalization is because our goal is to chop down
the state government bureaucracy
and we're going to nationalize our resources under a new
governmental paradigm
completely new one
well probably like we can create a state owned enterprise or some completely new organ of government
that will nationalize the energy industry
and i'm going so far as to say
maybe even nationalizing the energy industry will be the foundation
of a new
political order
guys remember what lennin said
you guys remember what lennin said
communism is soviet power
lost the electrification of the whole country
soviet power in america is probably gonn to take the forms
of
you know people taken over the local city councils
and having a cultural revolution
you know
town hall the town hall
the our soviet is going to be the town hall
right
you're going to have that form of political power
combined with nationalizing the energy grid
that's american communism
right there
that's ultimately what it's going to be about
i'm hungry
i'm so hungry
ah could eve
a fug and horse
i'm hungry

we're going to talk about how saudi arabia
in russia
changing the world
we're not going to talk about when we react to
why is saudi's distancing with the u s significant enough to completely dent the u s petro dollar this question will be at the forefront of today's video to analyze the significance of saudi's change stance we have to analyze the journey of the u s dollar and how it gained this much dominance in global trade it all starts in the nineteen for s when europe was at its worst during world war iwo amid grave uncertainties
forty four allies adopted the breton wood system it was decided that all the nations wouldill adjust their currencies to the u s dollar this was done in accordance with the requirements of the new monetary system this pegged the dollar to gold with the belief that this standardization wouldill reduce economic instability worldwide however in the early nineteen seventies the u s failure in the vietnam war changed the smooth course of the u s dollar
the u s was facing not just the balance of payments crisis but it faced a loss of credibility among its allies partners and other nations with its back to the wall the u s administration led by president richard nixon negotiated a historic deal with the opec countries in the mid nineteen seventies in exchange for oil trade only in dollars it agreed to provide u s military assistance to the gulf nations
w
this resulted in the birth of the petro dollar the u s received great assistance from saudi monarchs in this says saudi has been dictating terms to the opec nations evidently saudi arabia is the largest exporter of crude oil in the world including to the usa it accounts for seventeen point two percent of all x wy isn't there a fucking saudi conspiracy theory like the saudis control the world
think about
through saudi the uus indirectly controlled the dollar peg global oil prices escalating rifts between saudi and us but of late the rifts have been widening between the white house and the saudi monarchy ever since the biden administration took an oath it has been needling the red line set by the saudi monarchy evidently riyad was displeased at biden's administration's decision to stop aiding and supporting saudi arabia's military
campaign in yemen the saudi regime has been facing relentless hooi attacks on saudi oil infrastructure additionally chat is so behind
it's disgusting
the chat is like
that looks delicious
what
my mouse is gone by my hous is csing up with some mouse is fucking gon
my mouse's foging
i hate this falking computer
i hate this fox
computer i hate
computer
how do i get fucking my mouth back
aaudis are tribal iran to revive the j c po nuclear scade deal however
shut the fock up
the growing concerns are not one way my mouse is literally gone i can't see it
i don't have a fucking mouse
the biden administration recently accused opec plus of siding with russia and significantly cutting down the oil supply to the world in retaliation
i got it back
how did i get it back
thank god i hope he doesn't leave again
democratic lawmakers introduce legislation that demands the withdrawal of essential u s military hardware camped in saudi arabia and the united arab emirates currently around five thousand troops are stationed in saudi arabia and the united emirates apart from a variety of weapons that is why saudi arabia has been showing keen interest to join the soon to be expanded group of brics nations thus
trade of the extended brics group in brics currency will be the major jolt the petro dollar had ever suffered since its inception in the mid one nine hundred seventy s the petro dollar which came as a result of a deal between the saudi led opec group and the u s may end up being defeated by the same pill that is expanded bricks saudi led opec trading in brics currency for oil and other global trade will be the end of the petro dollar a strong brick
is all set to annihilate o saudis are opi
p the hegemony of the petrodollar bricks is the powerful association of five major emerging economies namely brazil russia india china and south africa the group represents forty one per cent of the global population twenty four per cent of the global g dp and around sixteen per cent of the global trade all the member nations have been holding annual meetings since its formation in two thousand
this year the fourteenth annual meeting of brics nations was held virtuallys all controlled by larouche
all controlled by larouche
bricks is all controlled by larouche
in in this decisive meeting russian president vladimir putin put forth a revolutionary idea he announced that brics nations are planning to issue a new global reserve currency dubbed as brics currency so if the decision goes as planned it will be a major jolt to the uus dollar as the launch and trade in brics currency can quickly erode the lion's share of global trade taking place in thear
furthermore men bide in just responding to thisasing
i ih what what i'mm
what as we
we we just got to never i can't do it man
it'sjust
just can't do it man its
s n we just cant oh man fucking the u s is in for something fucked up man
shre
the brics group is slated to expand and include many more emerging economies of the world currently argentina has formerly applied for brics membership there's n the u s is in crisis right now even if they have a plan for this
what's america's plan
they don't have one except war
they ow they don't have a plan except war i swear
but what may come as a shocker to the u s is that its long term ally saudi arabia too is eyeing a membership in the brics group reportedly south african president cyril
guys you can thank trump for a lot of this i'm not even kidding
trum
literally accelerated this so fast
what a based guy dude trump trump is so based
he literally is the one who fighting accelerated the shit out of this
b
fst
b
and
we
yh
es
posta has informed that saudi arabia wants to become a member of the brics expansion group notably this one move alone by saudi arabia can put a grinding halt to the geminy of the u s dollar if the extended brics group having saudi and it starts trading in brics currency it may completely obliterate the dominance of the petro dollar in global trade frankly the development did not come off as a surprise for months now
russia has been exploring various ways to reduce the importance of the dollar in bilateral trade while it was already trading with china and local currencies the ruparuble trade is also being explored additionally in the wake of sanctions russia is vouching for increasing f di inside its territory for this purpose it has nudged india and other economically capable nations to invest in russia it is even
working on streamlining the use of india's u p i in russia if executed properly the chances of the petro dollar getting phased out are huge let me explain currently the g you have only five nations lionl good morning revolution think
of the group comprises twenty three c of the global economy twenty five of global investments flows in and out of these countries even in global trade these countries have a huge presence eighteen per cent of global trade in goods is held by these countries other aspects of trade such as services and merchandise are also healthy among these countries now in spite of the back
of this group the putin led country had to face sanctions from the u s and its allies according to an estimate by marco fernandez a brazil researcher at the tri continental institute for social research the usa and its allies confiscated about three hundred signed it on twitter
it's hilarious
he went to penn state
uh i think i saw it yeah i'll check it out
i'll so it on streams soon
after this
billion dollars of russia's reserves additionally taking advantage of its strategic clout the u s a is also forcing russian ships to not engage in bilateral trade with india and other countries time to cut down on the use of petro dollars no wonder russia is taking drastic measures to cut down on the petro dollar it is the forced dependence on the dollar trade that put it into a disadvantageous situation the dependence on the
dollar as a four x reserve is exactly what forced india to change its economic policy in on nine hundred ninety one the same phenomenon coerced china to join the w t o while each of the aforementioned changes may not always prove to be harmful to countries they definitely have some long term consequences one of them is being dependent on the economy and increased pressure to stay in the united states good books
if countries somehow try to take a different position than that of the usa it indulges in sanction war with them as is happening with russia since two thousand and fourteen dependency on crude oil eurozone countries are highly dependent on imports for their oil with next to no local crude supplies each of the currency blocks five biggest economies germany france italy spain and the netherlands is at least
ninety percent dependent on foreign purchases to run refineries against that backdrop the dollar denomination of oil has proven to be a particular headache for european central bank officials and what has already been a testing so the u s and europe so the u s destroyed europe there like europe
you're done
the us destroyed europe
his europe was emerging as a competitor
the u s was like nope not our watch
you're done
get done
it done
you're done
you're done
you're out of here
the squeeze on energy supplies from russia's moves to cut gas deliveries has driven huge increases in consumer prices running at a record nine point nine per cent in september asian countries have been feeling similar pain through august the value of china's oil imports was no the europeans what did they ever do
they don't they don't even have a backbone fuck in the e u is garbage
what does europe even stand for man you know what europeans are
not
eastern enough
to be based
but they're not western enough to be sexy
so they're just in the middle and they're like
you know what a european is a european is like a
forty five year old woman with glasses and a scarf
in like a
bohemian dress and she is going
i just like to run around in the grass
and be free with my vegan rabbit
that's what fuck in europe is man
and then it's a dude
with a fucking nineteen twenty s cap and a scarf and glasses in a cafe
well you don't know that man
i'm basically trying to say it to you and describe it to you in the interesting terms but the interesting thing is that what marx really meant is
they're talking about the environment and the ecolo it's like fucking a
what's that fucking gamel del torro
b to sac it
yeah and what we're really talking about here is like
that's what buckan europeans are ok that's what that's what europe stands for
that's what europe stands for
and what always bothered me about the europeans
is that there you know they're like oh yeah free iran
so we can run in the grass we're free europeans we're like those oppressive muslim countries
we don't have to wear the veil
in america i kind of get that why because american women are sexy
in europe
you you keep talking you keep flaunting your freedoms that you don't have to wear the veil
has anyone ever asked you that you probably should
nobody nobody you said the question yeah i can
run around naked as a european
but has anyone asked the question
should you
should you
yeah you can run around naked in europe
but should you
what if you're ugly
europeans don't care
they don't even ask the question of see america
america is like
there's a knife to everyone's throat like yeah you're free but you have to be sexy you have to look good
you're up
oh we're free and ugly
who wants that man
the two extremes taliban

i believe in excellence i don't believe in this
if you want freedom be an american
ok
if you want freedom

freedom and necessity
together
you're free

this is why women do it to go post it on their instagram
they women go to protest
to post it on instagram
men go to protest
for pusssy
tell me what i am wrong
tell me i'm wrong
give me one good reason you're a dude sitting at your house and you're going to get up
and instead of
instead of eating some hot pockets and fucking playing call duty or watching a movie
going to get up and go to a fuck and protest
listen as a man
men only go out
four puss
that's the only reason we leave the house
except
her food
and sh and like clo like buying things
men only go out for two reasons to buy things
to think
in solitude
to catch up with the broils
or to get pussy
there's four reasons a man will ever go outside
the four reasons a man ever goes outside right there
the for reason
the four reasons a man ever leaves the house thank you so appreciate
i don't know what that is
but it depends on how far it is if i can't drive there i'm i going
but yeah there's four reasons a man will ever leave the house
ok
to think in solitude
two
purchase things
to hang out with the bros
we're to get pussy
why else would you step outside
name one other reason
like to go for a walk
think in solitude
that's what covers it
go to the gym
yeah that's the i count that that's either thinking in solitude or it's getting pussy for me it's thinking in solitude
for a lot of you that's forgetting pussy
because you're fucking losers
there's no there's no reason
a man goes to a protest
there's not
there's no reason
no reason at all
and there's a rare fit
but it's only if you're famous and it's to
grow your empire
expand your empire is the fifth reason
ok
but that fifth reason
ninety nine percent of men don't have it
that's the fifth reason
that's why i go to fucken
that's why i go like
the maga rallies in shit
think about it
church that's thinkin solitude
we got the police escort look we're just running red lights we don't give shyes like this su sky is like

um
brigan domaz
brigan idiot
d to do
those redactied people get crazy views
i know the fuck
ha want to react to my press t v appearance
let's react to haze
on first tv
haslden i' gonna go to a couple or hey that's me
i should say one topic that's mees to be one of the focus of this of the agenda of ping for the next five years
and based on what has been covered in a speech
bolstering security and
turning china into a technological
the power is very important for
china
now
we're going to get into technological aspect of it
a little later but national
security
high on the
agenda
and a priority why do you think
that cited as a priority
in the eyes of gene pine
well as china has entered a new phase
bch
historical developments which is moving out of the primary stage
of modernization and industrialization that characterized the reform and opening up europ
china is starting to be recognized around the world as a serious geopolitical player
and superpower
and with that has come the
understanding on part of the chinese leadership
that that's going to lead to an increased level of aggression and hostility from the world's
premier superpower
which is the united states so china
has to prioritize national security now in ways that it wasn't before
because it is increasingly finding itself in the crosshairs
o
the state department and the foreign policy agenda of the united states
a national security
i shouldn't have said the state department
i don't know why the fuck i said that
i was tired
i should have said like the pentagon
thank
and then technology hazeldan
the china is not going to rule out
not giving rare earths to the u s which would be a big catastrophe
for the u s acs would do that threshold but it comes to
sad we will do
yes i think it speaks more to the more fundamental level of modernization and
developments of the productive forces that china's leader of globe look at i'm such a serious guy look at
i m i clumi shami i hell m ws the s t you didt sd yeah i like that lok no hop i did' you od i'm gon to go seconz that
