This site was definitelly not what I was expecting. I google communist forum, this comes up, and what do I see? Well I don't know, you tell me.
Before I even register, I see in bold *no fascists*. Whilest I can certainly see why communists and fascists wouldn't get along, it doesn't seem very communist to just disregard an entire group of political thinkers. Even if they're destructive and oppressing, the point is to expand on ideas and make all information and production avaliable. So already this is looking like shit.
But then it says no bolshevisks or "pseduo-communists". So now apparently only hardcore communists are allowed. Who defines who is a hardcore communist and who isn't? This is already looking dangerously uncommunist.
Then I read a few topics, and whilest there is certainly some good discussions and valid points, I see way too many mods. Infact, one mod is too many. Because let me get this straight... you're anti-fascism, you're anti-stalinism, and yet you have moderators? At that very active moderators to "prevent trolling"? What is so frightening abou trolling that you have to give up on your principles just to prevent it?
This forum has already disproved communism, and that is sad. Because I'm a communist, I'm an admin at a communism page, and I would never do half this shit. I would not segregate the so-called "rightwing" to a specific forum and make them feel alienated or shunned, I wouldn't remind people they have to say or act a certain way, and I sure as hell would not tell people what the are and aren't. If they think they're an anarchist or a communist, then they are. Even if I disagree with them.
This is very bourgoise. So unless you have a damn good excuse, I'm goin to use this forum as an example of how we have alot of disinformation agents about what communism is and isn't. Because I think it's ironic that this place went above and beyond to say no authoritarian or totalatarian sympathizers, yet that's EXACTLY what you're doing. Infact, it's ussually the people who ***** most about it who do it first. And the fact is that if you can't even resist doing it on an internet message board, you are not prepared to start a revolution in the real world and are just going to make things worse.
Also why the hell do women get their own forum? I know some want to believe women are oppressed, but we're all oppressed. And whilest women do have to face unrealistic standards in beauty, grace, and get second pickings in the job market. They also are practcally immune to critisiscm. The very fact you all hve to go out of your way to prove you're procoice, femenists, sexual progressives proves that. Which I thought the point of communism was we didn't have to prove shit.
You sound like a bunch of armchair liberals. Not communists, not anarchists, not even fascists or nazis or whatever. Which would STILL be preferable. Because contrary to popular belief, social populism is not reactionary. Capitalism thrives on *****es and whores. It excells in teaching people to think selfishly, to only exsist for self gratification and make them too deranged or stupid to rebel. I'm not saying I want a theocracy... but what I am saying is a woman who has an abortion is no different then a ceo who lays off a hundred people to save himself a fifteenth of a percentage. Capitalism and rightwing philosophy is all about self grandiose and appeasing one's desires at the expense of others. It's evil, and it's psychoic. And I'm not so arrogant and hateful as to burn my bridges with any potential ally. Even so called rightwingers. In life you have to pick your battles...
Now I didn't come here just to say that. Like I said, this forum does have alot of intelligent discourse and subjects, but it's worthless if there's really noone to discuss things with. I see way too many posts with breif dialogue because people are afraid to actually speakout and sound "rightwing". Oh God forbid we don' meet somene elses criteria of what a real communist looks like!!! And when 1/3rd of the members online are mods, something is seriously wrong.
Me and my pal Gary run a facebook webpage called The American Communist League. If you want to post there, you can. I won't stop you, I won't tell you what you are and what you aren't. I welcome all people, of all different kinds of thought and action... You'll unfourtanately have to find it yourself, because apparently there's yet another rule that I cannot post links without having twenty five posts first. (So if the wall of text threatens you, blame the mods. Because normally I put images in my post to kind of lessen the strain on the eyes)
As far as why I call myself Jim Profit, that goes back a long time ago, and infact, reminds me why I'm a communist. Because I know what its like to be "prochoice" and take from others for my own well being, and because I have morals, I have had to carry that burden with me. "Profiting" off of others.
Also Jim Proletariat just doesn't have the same ring to it... lol! Now mind you, I know I'm not a "pro". I don't kno the terms and all the bullcrap. I figure there's no real need fo that. I'll learn as I go along, and the point is to lessen the weight of monetary system off our shoulders, not distinguish between Marxist-Lenists and the Trotskyists, and all that other bullshit. I figure if you're bored and want that drama ok, argue sematics, it be fun. But I leave it at speculation. Like how Gary believes we should develop a lottery system of governance. He loved my idea of people don't vote, but rather get a scratch off ticket and choose a bubble and see who they "won" in their vote. Thereby having no choice in who actually wins but still getting to feel guilty for participating. He though that was awesome, but I meat it as a joke... lol!
I tend to be more absolute and focus on human rights then on how we should govern. I do believe in the constitution. Atleast as far as the human rights go of the first nine. All that crap about states and shit, no. But all-in-all the constitution is very Trotskyist. Which is why you have the right to a trial, the right to not being self-incriminated, the igh to free speech, (not that the internet seems to appreciate that) and stuff like that. Our forefathers saw where rightwingism led, but they didn't go far enough because deepdown. They weren't good people, they were just rational people. But all I ask is that you atleast be one or the other. I don't have high standards. Then again, I'm an absurdist. I don't really expect much out of people or the universe besides weird or evil... But I can hope for better. For myself, for my kids, for everybody.
As far as my politics, I'm sure you'll see intime. Frankly I'm liking the term "hateocrat" I invented... I'm an artsy kind of guy... lol! Don't get any less reactionary then someone who wants to make up totally knew ways of social interaction... For example, I don't partcularly like authority. But if you don't make rules, someone else will. So I'd prefer to have a constitutional democracy where the rules are laidout flat and plain as day and people can discuss in court how to enforce them to their most extreme examples. (For example; should the second ammendment mean food stamps cover ammuniton? I think so... LOLOLOLOLOL!!!)
But I also know people are generally ignorant, and not to be trusted. Rather then risk creating a big brother state to try and force people not to be evil, I'd just much rather make them have to take a ris to change the law. Voting should require you have to play russian roullete. (And what's more communist then Russia?) They sit you down, spin the barrel, and there's a one in six chance you get your head blown off after you vote. The theory here is if you believe in something enough to make other people adhere to your principles, then you should have to risk your life the way they're going to have to change their's completely for you. And I would do it myself. I'd be the first ever person to vote like this and be glad too. Because I don't agree with abortion, or private ownership, or homosexuality, or ineternet moderation. But I have to putup with it don't I? So people should have to putup with me. THAT's equality!
I suppose the roullete voting does not have to be quite so intense and if you "get shot", you just can't vote in the next couple of elections or something. But that doesn't have enough hate!!! Needs moar' h8!!!
Any of you familiar with Warhammer 40k? I'd love for the future of our world to be like The Imperium of Man. With "xenos, mutants, and heretics" which is the order of which they conside to be a threat, replaced with "gays, whiteknigts, and moderators". I thought of changing my name from Jim Profit to Commissar Fuklaw. (Yes, pronounced "Fuck Law"... lol!) Which is The Commissar of a fanfic of imperium faction called "The Angry Marines: Always Angry, All The Time!".
