dont forget Engels !
Anyone else love this guy ?? He's so often just lumped with Marx or forgotten altogether, but he's actually really awesome in his own right. His writings are some of the best in the history of humanity, and without him the world would certainly be a very different place.

Wrongism
The revolutionary and the reactionary are united in one fundamental aspect: both must always believe themselves to be right. Right according to which system? Right according to orthodoxy, inherited wisdom, the hegemonic forms of knowledge permeating throughout our society? This question is seldom answered, and still more seldom is a coherent reason given to justify raising this particular system over all others. There is a much more pertinent question, however, which does not concern itself with explaining how and why one constructs this opposition between ‘right’ and ‘wrong,’ and what one places in each respective category: why must ‘right’ - however defined - be forever privileged over ‘wrong’?
The revolutionist seeks only to assert their ‘right’ - always in the singular, a ‘right’ of which they have declared themselves the sole bearers - across society - equally singular in conception. The enforcement of a frozen ‘right’ - coupled with the repression, internal as much as external, of thereafter contradictory falsehoods - is, however, always tainted by microfascisms, by tyrannical expressions, stripping existence of all vitality. The revolutionist is always a Rightist - an upholder of a particular order, a single preconceived definition of ‘right,’ correctness of belief and action - and at the moment of their revolution they unavoidably present themselves as the latest conservatives; the rejection of Rightism is not, therefore, to be found in Leftism, but in Wrongism: an unconditional willingness to be ‘wrong’ - consistently and intentionally - in the eyes of any absolute system, to embrace a variety of not altogether consistent ephemeralities, with no concern for their accuracy, only their fleeting applicability.
We are deeply sceptical of all orthodoxies and ideologies, not because we consider them ‘wrong,’ but because they consider themselves ‘right.’ In their place we propose a constantly evolving, pluralistic politics of affinity, always fighting off the urge to uncover any single ‘right’ way, so that we might still play with a continuous procession of radical falsehoods.
“Did the great philosophers notice their own contradictions? Or did they not see them, and did only their successors take account of them? I speak of Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus. Of course, they were aware of their own contradictions but these hardly troubled them; they knew that this was not the most important thing.†(Lev Shestov)
“You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.†(Friedrich Nietzsche)
“Human fallibility being what it is, victory and truth do not always go together. Therefore, if you have to always win, you can’t always be true.†(Nachman of Breslov)
“If you are not prepared to be wrong, you will never come up with anything original.†(Sir Ken Robinson)Category: Campaigns/Misc. Political: 9th March 2016 09:43

Marxist-Leninists
Marxism-Leninism is the theory and practice of the Communists, who uphold the works of Marx, Engels and Lenin in the struggle for proletarian revolution, the construction of socialism, and the triumph of communism on a world scale. It is the scientific ideology of the working-class and its vanguard which accomplish these aims.
Marxism-Leninism bases itself on historical and dialectical materialism, taking into account the objective material conditions existent in each country and region. It supports just struggles against imperialism and neo-colonialism whose victories are guaranteed through the leading role of the working-class in said struggles. It supports internationalism as the guiding basis of the foreign policy of the socialist state and in the approach to inter-imperialist conflicts. Marxist-Leninists fight for both democratic and socialist demands and, where necessary in the world, carry out any bourgeois-democratic tasks in tandem with the uninterrupted move over into the socialist revolution.
The struggles waged by Marx, Engels and Lenin against all forms of revisionism, opportunism and reformism constituted both the defense of scientific socialism and its creative development, opposing both "left" and right-wing deviations.
The construction of socialism in the Soviet Union and likeminded countries provided a superior alternative to the capitalist system. The treacherous policies pursued by the restorers of capitalism constituted a heavy setback for the world working-class movement, but they could not reverse the nature of capitalism and the inevitability of class struggles for socialism under it.
Marxism-Leninism remains the ideology of the working-class by virtue of its scientific content and objective merits in the epoch of imperialism and the decay of capitalism.

Debunking leftists.
As the tendency name suggests, this group is for interested leftists to come together, dispell and find quick refutations of common myths surrounding economics, discrimination, Communism itself and other subjects that commonly appear in the discourse of modern politics.
If you get pissed off whenever you hear a comparison between Marx, Lenin Pol-Pot and Hitler, If you tremble uncontrollably at the words 'a way between extreme Marxism and Capitalism' or 'Good on paper but bad in practice', If you hate having to put up the constant conservative vomits who continuously explain to you how deregulation would increase competition and therefore worker's luxury of living, then this is the group for you!Category: Interests: 7th May 2018 06:03

Orthodox Trotskyism
Orthodox Trotskyism, so called by both adherents and detractors, is a political current within the broader Trotskyist movement that bases itself on the work of Leon Trotsky and his associates, such as James P. Cannon, who advanced Marxist theory in the direction indicated by Trotsky's work, in opposition to the revisionist theories of Pablo, Shachtman, Cliff and others. Orthodox Trotskyists emphasise the analysis, first outlined by Trotsky, of the Soviet Union as a degenerated workers' state, of the Stalinist bureaucracy as a contradictory stratum, and of the present epoch of the class struggle as being characterised by a deep crisis of leadership that can only be resolved by forging, on a firm basis, a Fourth International of revolutionary Bolsheviks-Leninists. This group is for adherents to the orthodox Trotskyist line, and every comrade who is interested in orthodox Trotskyist theory.

Romantic Sound
For all those who's passion finds an outlet in music with themes about love and romance. Countless genres around the world from oldies and 70's ballads in the west to C-ambient and soothing J-pop ballads in the east. Romantic tones find themselves being a universal language. We don't care if this music makes us seem soft or weak, the mood it puts us in is powerful.
