Communists should lift weights and become warriors. Read why

[TomLeftist]

Hi all, from my own personal experience of dealing with a lot of people in the USA, specially the whiter european population of the country. I don't think that even poor whites will become communists, leftists when the economy gets worse. Karl Marx, Machiavelli, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin and many political writers realized that without weapons, without physical power, without military power, without violence, it is almost impossible to destroy and overthrow capitalism and replace it with a workers-state. (Dictatorship of the proletariat)

The white european population of America will fight real hard against any political sector trying to destroy their wonderful american dreams free markets. Even very poor people with yellow teeths and in pretty bad shape defend capitalism. Maybe out of fear from being harassed in their local churches and friends

Even in countries where neoliberal-capitalism has been overthrown and replaced by social-democracy welfare-capitalism (Like Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador) some kind of violence, weapons had to be used.

I think that leftists will have to evolve into stronger people, because even Karl Marx said that the working class will have to fight 10, 20, 30 and even 50 years of internal civil wars in order to be ready for political power.

SUPERMAN ROUTINE FOR THE MIND

[BIXX]

As someone who does lift, trained MMA for three years, wreslted for three years at a very competitive level before that, I have to ask- is this post a joke?

Someone can build commune however they want.

BTW, DO NOT do shoulder press behind the head. At lower weights it will seem like a good idea, but at higher weights it's a real good way to fuck your shoulders up.

Your "full body" routine is missing a lot tbh.

[TomLeftist]

Hello my communist brother and the other brothers and sisters of this family Revleft: Thanks a lot for your comments, about shoulder exercises. Well, this post is not really a joke, the thing is that from my own experience about how a large percentage of the white european population of U.S and many other countries, and also a large percentage of the whole working class population of all races is very reactionary and even hateful with an irrational hatred against communism, marxism ideology, against any intention of a political party to install a workers-state, a dictatorship of the proletariat, a government of the working class and poor peasants.

I think that one of the main reasons of why popular leftist celebrities in the USA like Bernie Sanders, Amy Goodman, Sean Penn, Danny Glover, Michael More, The Green Party, Jesse Jackson etc. are not full marxist leftists, but instead *center-leftists* (social-democrats) is that trying to offer a system which would require the radical massive nationalizations of all corporations under state-control and workers-control. And a repression of the central new workers-dictatorship, expropiating by violence the corporations and the wealth of the overthrown right-wing Republican Party anti-communism, TeaBaggers sectors of the country, including the large soft middle class which is very anti-communism, would require some kind of physical fights, individual fighting, of ultra-leftists being loyal to Marxism and without any fear against anti-communism US citizens who will try to physically, verbally and mentally harass, bash and trash communist comrades in one way or the other. So the physical strength, the warrior institncts, personal defense, personal power would be necessary for the ultra-leftists who would need to defend themselves from anti-communism people who will be very violent against the radical leftists comrades.

There is so much anti-socialism, anti-change mentality in the USA, that even Tavey Smiley wrote in a book about how the majority of black people hated Martin Luther King right before his death. As a result of the US corporate media selling Martin Luther King to the masses as a corrupt evil terrorist.

Politics in general is really a war but without weapons. Anybody who is into politics should really be warriors, and be ready to fight at any time against political enemies.

So that's why I suggest to my family of Revleft ultra-leftists to think about some kind of exercise program like weight-training and a diet high in protein, to increase their physical power. Because political activism is also very physical.

Thanks

I promise you, getting in shape will improve your life, but to politics and politics themselves, it's really not all that important. I do think knowing how to fight is a good idea for life, but the reality is that even in times where you expect to be in a physical conflict with, for example, a fascist, the fights generally aren't what you think they are if they even happen. Furthermore, if you're in average shape, you're in good enough shape to take on most people. I think that members of the imaginary party detect the need to work out, the get bigger/faster/leaner/meaner, they'll pursue that themselves. But physical confrontation isn't the mechanism by which the combatants against capital destroy capital. Sure there will be some, but I think we all the know economy is more easily and efficiently attacked in other ways.

Actually this is true although I havent read Tavis smiley's new book, the majority of americans did not like MLK jr. He was against the more radical socialist leftists like Malcolm X. He was a devout christian preacher, so both atheists and muslims didn't like him, he preached non violent revolution, non violence was hardly a message communists of the time embraced. It was only after his assassination that he was turned into a martyr.

[The Intransigent Faction]

Of course. Little known fact: Stalin could bench-press 10 times his body weight.

In all seriousness, I'm all for exercise, but I'll be damned if I have to start bench pressing!
There must be alternatives that don't require that kind of equipment.

This protein powder fad has to stop. Eat real whole food for god sake. Its idiotic to just filter out one nutrient, you dont do this with carbohydrates and fats either. Don't eat table sugar to supplement your carbohydrates, don't drink oil to supplement your fats and don't eat protein powder to supplement your protein intake. A healthy lifestyle is all about whole plant foods, not supplements.

We need about 0,9 protein per kg of body mass. I weight 80 kilos so i should eat 72 grams, yet here you are saying i should eat 202 grams? You're promoting a pathological diet.

This video explains it a little more.

While I'm unable to watch your video, I disagree. Everyone has a different body chemistry. Using protein powder to supplement your already occurring protein intake has nothing wrong with it cause it's just food. Also, maltodextrin is a carb additive that many bodybuilders use, and many bodybuilders do down a little olive oil at the end of the day if they don't have enough fats in their diet that day. Basically, what I'm saying, is that that works for some people, others not so much. You need to find a balance that works with you and do that. Some people (like myself) are way better off with a high protein diet (matching grams of protein to pounds of bodyweight in my case) with a slightly lower number of carbs and fats for the rest of my calories. I feel pretty great doing that. However some people need to do keto, or higher carb or lower fat or whatever. The obsession you have over whole foods though is completely aesthetic and has nothing to do with nutritional reality.

ETA: I think most dietary advice is insanity. All there is in terms of diet is ensuring no extreme imbalances and then general 'give this a shot'.

Also adding, I agree that getting more veggies and shit is generally a good idea, but you can also take multivitamins along with whatever else you're using and be fine. Just make sure whatever supplements you're taking are verified to be of good quality, whether multivitamins or protein powder.

As an anecdote, I was doing a DIY Soylent recipe for about 6 months at approximately 85% replacement for "real" food, and at the time I was very healthy.

yeah, so TL's idea that everyone on this site needs to follow this diet is pretty absurd

i just eat a bunch of broccoli and ramen and burritos and collards and ride my bike a lot and eat tons of calories and don't follow some anal as fuck diet and i can throw a good left hook and not really get tired from being out in the streets all day or night and my squat's pretty good, too.

i'm not sure i'd provide bodybuilders as a particularly good example to follow for being a "warrior", since bodybuilding isn't really concerned with any metric of functional performance.

why ya doing a bunch of bodybuilding reps, TL? what's the point of all this if you don't know how to fight? if you're going for strength, your reps should be in the low single digits. and powerwalking? whyyyyy

YOU'RE STILL HERE HOW ARE YOU DOING MY DUDE

Anyway, I was giving bodybuilders as a reference because in my experience someone with a good physique has to know their shit in regards to diet, and also from my experience, if you throw them in a class where they have to learn, say, Muay Thai, they have the physical capability to perform well due to their knowledge of physiology.

Really, I think the general point your making is solid though- you really don't need to maintain an anal diet, you don't need to have a strict routine set out every day, really to be healthy just get regular exercise, eat reasonably healthy. Now, if you WANT to do those things, then by all means, enjoy, cause you can definitely do that. I personally do enjoy it.

CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE HERE EITHER

anyways, yeah like following this super particular specific diet, living your daily life around the idea of Being A Warrior For The Revolution sounds like the most alienated thing you could do with your tiny amount of daily allotted free time. And yet, this plan is also really incomplete. Follow a weight routine and eat a diet? That's not even going to make someone anywhere near some kind of leftist militant.

ride your bike, go for runs, go hiking, do squats, learn boxing, eat broccoli, eat trash, whatever, just please enjoy yourself and you might just stick with it.

How do you know you were healthy, and if you were how is this any more than anecdotal evidence? When we look at big health studies the proof is strongly in favor of whole foods. The diet proposed here is lacking in fiber which is essential to. I would suggest you watch the video when you got a little more time later. :)

I wasn't speaking in favor of Tl's proposed diet.

I know I was healthy because athletic performance increased, lost fat, and my heart rate improved. I was more alert as well. No doctors visits however if you do some research regarding the DIY community of Soylent you'll find that a lot of folks experienced the same thing. Others do experience negative effects. Again, it all depends what works for you.

You're right about fiber btw I didn't really bother looking at Tl's diet thoroughly beyond his advocacy of keto.
