Boo!

[Counter-Corporate Jujitsu]

Hello.

I'm a communo-anarchist from Politics Forum.org

I used to be a Marxist, then I began to read up on the "dictatorship of the proletariat" and decided to become a non-Marxist Communist. That didn&#39;t work out, mainly because I got sick of telling people it didn&#39;t have anything to do with Stalin ( <_< ) and thus I became an anarchist.

Welcome to this fine sites...If you want to inflitrate us and set the FBI on us (like that old dude in Fahrenheit 9/11), Please say now so we can ban you, burn models of you and set a sniper on you. If you don&#39;t want to infiltrate us, WELCOME COMRADE&#33;

I highly doubt that the FBI will be concerned unless you talk about plotting revolution. And even then they probably won&#39;t take you seriously.

From your article you have no grasp of Marxism.

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

Coming from a Leninist, that is no surprise.

Marxism and Marxist-Leninism are both forms of Authoritarian Socialism. Why? Marx advocated a “dictatorship of the proletariat” because, he argued, unless the proletariat held power through a dictatorship, the capitalists will regain power. Thus, once the revolution has been completed a dictator should be appointed to run the country in order to prevent this.

Of course Noxion because that really shows his comprehension of Marxism.

Wow. You bothered to read my article? :o

Anyway, I&#39;m open to any suggestions to change it around a little, but I maintain my thesis: Marxist-Lenninism is inherently authoritarian.

You haven&#39;t seen Fahrenheit 9/11 have you?

[Counter-Corporate Jujitsu]

I have, actually. It was extremely depressing. :(

Revolution is inherently authoritarian...what&#39;s yor point?

[The Forum Idiot]

His point isn&#39;t flat...or even slightly rounded.

:huh:

But the quote he just gave is an attack on Marxism in general, not just Marxist-Leninism.

By "the dictatorship of the proletariat", Marx meant exactly that, the dictatorship of an entire class. Not a dictator. It was a play on words that I suspect he would have regretted had he seen the disasters it was used to justify.
