Forget the old formula "Communism = Soviet Power + Electrification." The new formula is "Communism = Blob Avakian + LSD!"

At first I thought this was sort of a joke, someone at Burning Man was goofing on the great Chairman Avakian. Its the kind of thing that would happen at BM. Then I found its the real thing. I guess the RCP has completed the circuit and become a post modernist satire on itself, like the late period Elvis.

already coming up with a constitution before a revolution has ever happened? can they see into the future and predict the material circumstances years from now?

Burning Man will surely amplify their psychedelic telepathic futurism.

kudos on coming up with something that at least can be looked at though and compared to the current constitution. but god damn, they are going to waste 10,000 on that instead of getting more cool stuff for Burning Man.

Stop hating on Bob Avakian, he is the face and mind of the coming revolution. The RCP is the true vanguard of the American proletariat.

yeah, man. its like, well, you know man. you free your mind! you are sticking it to the man and stuff. its totally revolutionary.

Having Bob there is like Timothy Leary meets Karl Marx, man.

far out.

There's a bit of wiggle room there.


THE NEW SOCIALIST REPUBLIC IN NORTH AMERICA

Its not

THE NEW SOCIALIST REPUBLIC OF NORTH AMERICA

So this New Socialist Republic doesn't have to be all of Canada and the US but could be a micronation in someone's backyard or living room. Better yet it could be on Jessica Nation. Basically the New Socialist Republic will be on someone's hard drive.

I can see why the comments aren't public on their site. Every troll in the universe will have a feeding frenzy.

For real, brother. :cool:

Now you get it. LSD + Maoism = revolution.

I like to drink a handle of vodka in a bathtub full of warm water, that's my socialist republic in North America. :cool:

"Few took seriously the ANR's claim to be the legal government, but few dismissed it entirely. In its controlled zones, dispersed and remote, and in the back of people's minds, the Republic still existed. It had hegemony. That much it had already won."

~from The Star Fraction, by Ken MacLeod

If the RCP had that, then this constitution for a North American socialist republic might be valid.

But it doesn't, so all it has is lulz.

Maoism (Avaikian thought) has now gotten a whole lot more attractive for me.

The dude's in France. Why don't write a constitution for that country? Better yet, why don't he rewrite the Declaration of the Rights of Man? Even better, why don't he replay the entire French Revolution? He could be Robespierre, Danton, and Louis VI.

This still doesn't match Ben Seattle's essaying showing how Burning Man = a model of what communism will look like: Burning Man 2004: Desert Goddesses Saturate Emergent Community with Eye-Candy (http://struggle.net/ben/2004/bm_high_bw.htm?fork)(complete with pictures of "Desert Goddesses").

they also changed the identity of their newspaper to downgraded sci-fi look... now with this stencil spreading shit at burning man, the whole think is starting to resemble the tinfoilhat "i want to believe" shit, since no one has seen or heard of him since he went into self-imposed excile. I takes on the "Pac is still alive" myth:rolleyes:

hell, maybe he's chillin on a island somewhere with elvis, jimi hendrix and pac :lol:

Wait, wasn't he in the US in 2003 to give that talk for that one film? So I guess that's at least one time he's been seen since he went into exile.

As soon as i heard his voice,


Bob Avakian became




























Michael J Fox. I dont know why, he hardly resembles him or sounds like him, but it was the first thing that came to mind. a older, harrier, and far less time-travellier Michael J Fox.

What if he's the communist 'Jesus" of our time. We persecute him and make fun of him now but 500 years from now people will be wearing Bob Avakian necklaces, worshiping him and accepting him as their personal savior? Maybe I should be one of his disciples?

Don't you have to wait till your dead to make posters with your own image on them?

1. Brown acid is a myth.

2. Breasts are breasts.

3. There's always some shitty act at those kind of places. Just ignore them.

Maoism (Avaikian thought) has now gotten a whole lot more attractive for me.Yeah I think it would be a step forward if the RCP started candy-flipping at raves.

It's quite possible to recruit people while they are on ecstasy... but in the morning they feel all awkward and distant.
