I love how basically the fact that I know brown people turned me into this evil Privilege Theorist who goes around telling everyone to check their privileges.

If I'm being honest, I don't even know what any of that means.

MAN, I was really excited to talk about my feelings on the place of Islam in a communist society for like one sentence until I got to the rest of that guy's post. lmao.

I dunno if I would go far as to say it's a thing that can't be done, but it's definitely a thing that I have never seen happen non-racistly? I don't know why not though, aside from, er, racism. It's not like other people who live in the USA can't follow the same tumblrs I do.

I dunno man. A political platform that insists you not adhere to any other ideas isn't a revolutionary platform. It's a cult at best. There's no reason why a Muslim or a Christian or a person of any other religion can't be just as awesome a revolutionary, if not moreso, than an atheist. I am 100% unwilling to be a part of any movement or any revolution that does not have room for people of any religion.

Man, can you be restricted or banned just for being religious? I'm just. Asking for a friend.

Yeah it's just kind of like, come on Marx, you're an old German philosopher, shut up about some things.

Yeah, I dunno man, I am not willing to condemn the idea of religion. The separation of religion from the rest of a person's lifestyle isn't an idea that has a whole lot of currency outside of the west, and even within the west it's only a couple hundred years old. I do not have words strong enough for the kind of people who think that entire cultures and societies should be destroyed in favor of enlightenment-era colonial bullshit.

Heck yeah we can be friends

There's anti-islam sentiment in every damn thread on this site. Marx really fucked us all over by off-handedly condemning all religions ever based on a limited experience with a couple denominations of protestant christianity.

I have to admit it gets demoralizing at times.

Comrade, I'm too tired to comprehend this now, so please don't think i am ignoring you.

I'm still rather Marxian, by the way.
Spookily, Bakunin warned Marx that a 'red bureaucracy' would emerge as a new class.

I'm not a Goldman fan either! My favourite book is still the 18th brumaire. And no, we can not be friends as you will put me up against the wall when the revolution comes!
Have you though about an avatar? I was only joking, if you didn't get that- the Internet can't show sarcasm

Also, I see the state as a tool of the minority to oppress the majority. This natural limits liberty and equality, to go further, it is the enemy of liberty and equality.
A state has never been ruled by a majority, always by a minority: the bureaucrats, the party members etc.
What would happen is that one man would replace another- the president replaces the king etc.
This is a baised view of course, so don't take my word as the gospel (in fact, don't take the word of that either).

Try reading 'the ABCs of anarchist communism' by Alexander berkman. It easy as fuck compared to Marx. Me and a few others have made an anarchist youth group if you want an invite.
