Democracy is like a mule with a spinning wheel, oh wait, no it isn't! :/
"Communism IS Democracy!" I have heard this, I'm sure you have too! But what type of democracy? Democracy for party members? Whose party!? WHERE IS THE PARTY I WILL ASK OF YOU.
Before any social revolution can happen we have to formulate what type of politics should we use? Here in the USA, we have a bourgeois democracy, you know...a democracy controlled by capitalists, corporations, and family monarchies (Bush!!!!!) :angry:
Is THIS commuinist democracy? If I asked you, we would say NO! What type of democracy do we want...we want REAL DECMOCRACY....DIRECT DEMOCRACY. A democracy of the people, of all people.. A dempocracy free of political parties and their larger-than-life leaders. We need to make decisions without having to follow some kind of ideological orthodoxy or party regime.
Everyone should vote, all of the working classes, because together we can overppower our oppressors without violence or unorganized rioting.
But how will we achieve direct democracy? We will wait for the people to choose it. If the people choose to die under capitalism, then I can't stop them. I can only hope that they agree to social changes. And when all people have decided, then we can take action against a system. Democratic action.
