    Default RevLeft can’t come up with 140 a month to pay for its servers?

    Source

    Quote:
    What I find interesting is that revolutionary communism is not more popular. This means that the masses are pacified. IF they were hungry and angry, some would go RevCom, and some would come to the Mindweapon movement.
    But everyone is fat and happy for now. In the old days if they didn’t get a job, they didn’t get a girl, and no girl, they rioted in the streets. Now they stay at home with videogames and porn and Xanax. So it’s an Aldous Huxley type dystopia.
    But it’s probably not sustainable. And when it stops being sustainable, both the RevLeft and the Mindweapons Movement will increase in popularity.
    The Mindweapons movement has an economic program, namely to do small businesses that serve the community, such as food production and processing, and thereby employ people and give them hope. Our program is congruent with White American (and Christian) morality.
    White Americans need to be taught to serve one another again. When everyone serves everyone else as best they can, there is more than enough in teh community for everyone, and there is likely even a surplus to be traded, so those who work hardest can accumulate some wealth and working assets (working assets being farms, trucks, horses, housing).
    The Revolutionary Leftists are obviously very lazy people. Out of hundreds of users, they cannot find 28 to send in 5 bucks each per month.
    In general, leftists and liberals are lazy and hedonistic. Not all, of course, but it’s an overriding feature of leftism. After all, they want redistribution — they want free shit! And they want to kill people who create jobs and own rental housing. if it wasn’t for landlords, the whiggers would be squatting in abandoned buildings with no heating, electricity or plumbing, shitting and pissing in buckets in the building, or at best, just outside the building.
    Oh but the government should take care of them! Who? Who should have to maintain the water systems and utilities and sewerage for people whose ideology is to get something for nothing? The Revolutionary Leftists basically want a slave society, where they are the masters.
    But when the EBT card gets cut off, lots of people will join RevLeft. But even then, they still probably won’t be able to pay their server bill, or any other bill. And a lot of other people, better people, will join us! The center will not hold.


    They seem to think that success is measured in monetary value, but the fact we are no longer under the censorship of Google Ads and Revleft isn't looking to make a profit but assimilate information and be an educational tool, we are and remain to be the only leftist forum of its kind on the net.

    And what point does this forum serve?
    “All that a well-organized secret society can do is, first, to assist in the birth of the revolution by spreading among the masses ideas corresponding to their instincts, and to organize, not the army of the revolution—the army must always be the people [—] but a revolutionary General Staff composed of devoted, energetic, intelligent and above all sincere friends of the people, who are not ambitious or vain, and who are capable of serving as intermediaries between the revolutionary idea and the popular instincts.” - Bakunin the Leninist

    Actually with all the threads I have read here and remember, instead of going to the search option on the board, I google words that probably were tagged in revleft threads. This popped up and I found it funny and the warped definition of success.

    They also kinda miss the one point where revleft is kind of a miniscule thing compared to the wider "movement". For fascists and nazis, it would seem like most of them, even more "high profile" figures, at least have an account on certain racist forums. Meanwhile literally none of the other communists/anarchists/socialists i've ever met have even heard of Revleft.

    The board just isn't representative of the Left as a whole. Which isn't really a slight against us (though there's a lot we could do to maybe change that a little bit. Like Tim Cornelis said in some other thread, he ain't about to donate to a site from which he could be banned next week, and I think a lot of other people feel the same way).

    And it certainly doesn't help that our membership tends to skew younger than most right wing sites do (with most of us being between 18 and 29 or something? Finding decent income is tough for a millennial...)

    I'm just amused by the comments where they think we're liberals.

    A board of anarchists and communists want the government to do everything for them? The right-wing sees anything to the left of them (even other those of other clearly bourgeois ideologies) as lazy liberals (even though they are the liberals) who just love the bourgeois governments. How could an anti-capitalist want to increase the power of the bourgeois state, as these crazy people think we do? All we need to look at is their use of the phrase of white American Christians. Racist nationalist fundamentalists, a breed of humans who will not last long.

    This did actually get me wondering about something. If we had some people talented in the arts of the deeply sketchy, why, wouldn't it be practically our duty to divert funds from right-wing sites to the maintainence of revleft?

    That's the legacy of the USSR, sadly. When people think communism they think of the state [whatever you want to call it] of the Soviet bloc.
