Why is there an admin class on Rev Left?

[DannyMorin]

Why do admins and mods see it as their right to have power over other users here? If the mods exist, they should be in a purely managerial role, deleting spambots, etc.

[Lord Testicles]

We're trying to mimic class society. Sometimes the admins withhold the necessities of life and make us work for them but they never pay us more than is needed to buy back only a small portion of those necessities.

[DannyMorin]

They claim they don't believe in a ruling class in society but it seems they do on RevLeft.

I'll never forget how their police gunned down my brother.

Revleft is a website, k.

[Lord Testicles]

Revleft =/= Society.

I don't think some of you are serious about this whole Marxism thing.

If you're not willing to abolish the ruling class on a website then I doubt you're willing to do it in society as a whole.

Do you live in the real world?

Eh? Whose sockpuppet am I?

They claim they don't believe in a ruling class in society but it seems they do on RevLeft.

Its an informal union of immediate individuals within a private space opened for use by other people. It isn't an invasion of an already occupied space.

*folks sitting in vast park talking about latest movies*

*stranger runs up eating their own poop raving about how these folks can't have governance over their immediate space for conversation and instead has to be subjected to poop-eater's poop eating because otherwise it is oppression at the highest magnitude*

[Slavic]

Why was this guy banned? He provides much comic relief.

Revleft should revert from its bourgeoisie structure to a feudal structure. I want to see indentured trolls who are confined to certain land enclosures (sub-topics) for the amusement of the gentry.

[BIXX]

Slavic, I like where you're going with that.

I think the admin class existed on revleft to restrict DNZ. Now that has been accomplished, I think the admin class will wither away, as promised in Marx's own writings. :grin:

[Tim Cornelis]

Heh huh what? DNZ is restricted, why?

[Brutus]

Heh huh what? DNZ is restricted, why?

Because he's a moonbat?

[Lord Testicles]

Because he's a moonbat?

Being a moonbat isn't a violation of forum rules.

Why do we even, like, need a website? You know. Can't we all just sit in our rooms and like, channel our energy to one another?

[Sasha]

Eeew, I mean this in the best, non-homophobic way but I really would not want to get channeld in to with your energy TAT.

[Ele'ill]

Because he's a moonbat?

look around you

Well that just hurt my feelings.

I bet it would be magical and relaxing

More booze soaked and surly.

I read that!

What a complimentary thing to say! :D

Well, you see, RevLeft is organized on the basis of Posterist Board organization principles. Administrators, who form the Vanguard of the Posters, being the most ideologically advanced portion of the poster usergroup taking its interests to their logical extreme, safeguard the Posters' Dictatorship of the Posters, representing the most advanced form of Posterist democracy. The actions of the administrators are subject to approval by the general public, which are to be approved by the Supreme Council of Posters (selected by the vanguard) meeting each 4 years.

The Central Committee of the Board represents the most advanced portion of the Vanguard which takes the most important decisions and is directly subordinate to the Posters. Administrators perform Board activities and pro-Board propagandism, as well as promote posters' ideology and organization principles. Posterism is an integral system of the idea, theory and method of Boardism, and a great revolutionary ideology of the Posters' era. Guided by Administratorism-Moderatorism, administrators conduct Board building and Board activities, as well as sustain the revolutionary character of the Board and advance the revolution and construction in line with the tradition and thinking of the Leaders of the Posters' Revolution.

Armed with the ideology of Administratorism-Moderatorism in their hands, Posters are to become the ruling usergroup of the Board, overthrowing the anti-Posterist counter-Boardist clique representative of the previous era, and exercising its will through the Administrator vanguard. The great new system of Posterism established by Administratorism-Moderatorism ensures that each Poster has the highest freedom of expression, with the vanguard of the Posters removing any anti-Posterist messages which may endanger the Posters' freedom of speech. Upon the next development as predicted by Dialectical Usergroupism, the usergroup dictatorship, in which rule must be enforced by the vanguard to safeguard the interests of the Posters, will evolve to the condition of Postindividualism, in which the Posters will hold direct control over the removal of Posters' messages. After this phase of Postindividualism, the phase of Realistic Utopianism will be reached, in which all usergroups are finally removed, and no user is able to remove another's messages. This represents the final expression of Administratorism-Moderatorism in which the vanguard of the posters, enforcing the Posters' dictatorship of the posters, has finally realized the maximum emancipation of the poster usergroup.

Glory to the Board, comrades! Suppress any anti-vanguard activity by counter-Posterist cliques, in line with ideological sanitization and anti-revisionism!
