"MLs dont treat their political ideology as a religion, thats stupid!"
The MLs:
doing material analysis and direct action to change the world is just like praying to a higher power, I am very smart
You literally wrote a prayer to your ideology
Dialectical materialism is a tool, not a religion. The text is a play on the "Serenity Prayer," it doesn't mean communism is a religion.
For those that don’t know, this is a fun play on the “Serenity Prayer”.
no it's not, it's dramatically better!
We need to stop with the praxis. It's a playbook written in another era, further warped by decades of midwits and sabotage
And it just scares off the masses. No one is going to read your pamphlet unless they already mostly agree with you, in which case why are you talking to them?
Every successful political movement is evangelical
We need to stop with the praxis
Yes, hello officer
This is just shooting yourself in the foot. It's important to directly engage with the masses, explain why we do what we do, fight for improving material conditions, while educating on liberatory ideology. Ideology is a tool, one that helped Russians, Chinese, Cubans, Vietnamese, Koreans, Laotians, Nicaraguans, Venezuelans, and more defeat impossible odds and move the wheel of history forward. Throwing away the tool, blunting it, hiding it, and instead focusing on generic improvements loosely and decentrally, has never once resulted in successfully replacing capitalism with socialism.
what do you think praxis means here?
Praxis is the process by which a theory, lesson, or skill is enacted, embodied, realized, applied, or put into practice. "Praxis" may also refer to the act of engaging, applying, exercising, realizing, or practising ideas. This has been a recurrent topic in the field of philosophy, discussed in the writings of Plato, Aristotle, St. Augustine, Francis Bacon, Immanuel Kant, Søren Kierkegaard, Ludwig von Mises, Karl Marx, Antonio Gramsci, Martin Heidegger, Hannah Arendt, Jean-Paul Sartre, Paulo Freire, Murray Rothbard, and many others. It has meaning in the political, educational, spiritual and medical realms.
Is this a meme?
Can I just post shit I like here?
Next I'm post "water is a basic human right" and "racism is a horrible thing we should work to remove from society"
Really easy when memes are now just anything I like
So do it, and let the marketplace of ideas decide it's worth
^ when you definitely understand what memes are
Kill the Meme Cop in your head.
Cope harder lmfao
Yeah fuck those guys who brought freedom to millions of Russian feudal serfs and beat the nazis, respectively. I only take advice from historical cool guys, like Winston Churchill
fedposting from feddit.org, checks out
who, besides the communists, practice dialectic materialism?
Marxism-Leninism is the ideology that has liberated billions of working people around the world. It makes sense to uphold the ones who put the teachings of Marx and Engels into practice and synthesized Marxism-Leninism, not just Marx and Engels themselves. The "Five Heads" of Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao are seen as the most important contributors to the actual real ideology that has been put into practice to liberate billions in the former USSR, China, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, and many more countries.
Even returning to the subject of this post, dialectical materialism, Lenin wrote Materialism and Empirio-Criticism and Stalin wrote Dialectical and Historical Materialism. The former is an in-depth look at dialectical materialism and how it stands up to bourgeois science, and the latter is an easily understood primer meant for those who wanted to grasp the basics.
Was Marx an alcoholic? I heard, from my good friend Bruce, that a bunch of other philosophers were hard drinkers.
