      Yeah, if you link them without an ounce of critical thought?

      Why do you believe I didn’t link them while thinking critically? You have misconceptions about Marxism, and don’t want to take my word for it, so why not hear it from Marx?

      I just want an ML to give me one single argument that was created in the 21st century.

      I’m arguing now, about a 20th century Socialist State. If you want to move on to current events, like Palestinian Liberation, we can do that if you’d like.

      Please just have one independent thought for once in your life I beg, not for your own good but so I can argue a point I haven’t already argued with MLs 100000 times before.

      If you’ve argued these points 100,000 times and people are still linking theory, then maybe you should visit the theory yourself. Maybe then you’ll have new arguments.

      You people are a laughing stock and your figureheads are russian bots and weird grifters.

      Who are my figureheads?

      You read and you listen to speeches and you have your little circlejerks, and all that comes out of it is shit that would come out of your mouth in 1931.

      Not really sure how to respond to this, this is just mud-flinging.

      Please get at least one new position, react to the current world, analyse what may have gone wrong with the past movements.

      I can and do. The current world is dominated by US Hegemony, but Imperialism is weakening as countries in the global south seek increased protectionism and are starting to shake-off the IMF. The winds are changing. I also critically analyze the USSR, their adherance to planning by hand even with the advent of computers drew inefficiency that need not be replicated. Capitalist monopolies and near-monopolies also practice central planning internally, and we can scalp from their methods. Additionally, shutting itself off from the Capitalist world contributed to the collapse of the USSR, and created over-reliance on itself from smaller Socialist countries, who were hit hard during the collapse of the USSR, such as Cuba.

      Please I am begging stop sucking off dead guys.

      Homophobia, color me shocked.

          Are you assuming that I assume that you’re a man?

          My display name literally lists my pronouns as [he/him], as does my profile description.

          Also you assumed that I gave a sexualised reply as a way of disparaging homosexual behaviour.

          That’s what the origin of oral as an insult is, yes. Ask yourself why it’s insulting to claim someone to be sucking off a man.

          Kinda male-centric, chauvinistic, and puritanical, don’t you think?

          Projection. Treating sexual acts as demeaning is chauvanistic and puritanical. Why specifically use “sucking off” and not “worshipping,” or some other demeaning display of loyalty? To draw on homophobia.

          Do some self-crit. I don’t believe you are intending on being homophobic, but I do believe you are relying on homophobia to insult me.

              Didn’t read your profile description and on voyager you just show up as Cowbee@lemmy.ml.

              Fair enough.

              We are in the 21st century, if you were fellating a woman I’d have phrased it differently. The MLs you people tend to cite are men though, so I went with that.

              Using sex as a demeaning act is still chauvanistic. As for authors, I would advocate reading Rosa Luxemburg had the conversation been about Reformism vs Revolution, or Leslie Feinberg (though she used a variety of pronouns, they preferred She/Her) had the topic been about Trans Rights. Pretending only Men have contributed to Marxism is again, chauvanism.

              I am personally only drawing on how much you people wanna fuck these guys.

              Sigh, chauvanism again, and back to homophobia as you know I identify as male.

              Personally I own up to it, I’d fuck Malatesta, I’d fuck Goldman, Marx could get it if he brushed out his beard.

              Sure, you aren’t directing that as an insult towards another, but as individual expression of your own sexuality. There’s a large difference between the two.

              I’d say do some self crit yourself, maybe with a sexologist.

              I try to be self-critical as much as possible, otherwise I would never be able to grow.
