This is a challenge to encourage some regular theory reading alongside the usual posting. While it is good we are producing a front against the liberals online, it is good to also enrich our understanding of what we fight for, and become talented and true Marxist Leninists! It will be hard work rebuilding our reputation, but we shall, one essay at a time!
I will be reading The Press by mah boi Stalin! And The Anniversary of the Lena Massacre also by Stalin. You can also share your own works if you have any for proofreading!
Okay hi hello hey there yo, I listened to trade unions, the present situation, and trotsky’s mistakes and I’m currently listening to origins of family, private property, and the state!.
Poor lenin said he was a bit sick in the introduction of the first text and he was apologizing for it which I found a bit funny. He critiques Bakhunin’s (iirc) of industrial democracy. It supposes that a worker base is all that’s needed to free the proletariat from capitalism.
This got me thinking about the current wave of labor organizing in America. I think all labor organizing has the potential to add towards future building, but we also need to be aware of the limitations of certain things and also recognize our own weaknesses in not front lining these organizings (at least here in the west).
Mr. engels is one very talkative guy. He has such a dry sense of humor, but I feel like he was laughing his ass off when he was shitting on a number of anthropologists with shitty ideas. Not really strictly theory, but I thought it’d be a nice listen.
Those are some good picks and your quite right about labor organizing having its limits making the need for a Vanguard party obvious.
