"These poor jokers, clearly don't have the faintest idea of what a social class actually is. A class is not a group of people that have the same size of income, it is instead a group of people who fulfill a particular function economically in social production."
- A. Pannekoek
@punished_monkey
Being a nationalist and a socialist aren’t mutually exclusive. Heard that he helped to protect the Romanian language from it being overtaken by Russian and tried to protect the various identities that live in Romania
@centristmarxist
You know I disagree, I think the reason it wasn't propagated is because it openly advocates for council power and whole class dictatorship (which aren't very libertarian mind you), and the positions entailed are remarkably close to those of the Dutch Communist left
bordigists need to let go of this lol, the worst product of fascism is the destruction of the workers movement (partially through the advent of anti fascism admittedly) but mostly through sheer state power.

@pimgeon_
Antifascism is the worst product of fascism, case ten billion
If you’re a “leftist” maybe don’t support a man committing a genocide as we speak

Norman Finkelstein is completely unhinged. I believe his self-hatred is probably a psychological self-defense mechanism, a response to his parent's experience during the Holocaust which is actually really sad. He needs help, he is like a severely wounded bird.
Some friends of mine are preparing to launch a Left-Communist writing collective!
Mayhaps you could follow them,
@conseillistes
?
They plan on writing modern retrospects on the Council movement and its modern application.
@EarlOfThePseud
- chomsky writes intro
- never mentions anything real or meaningful to do with pannekoek nor the councils
- implies councilism is syndicalism
- the book rejects trade unions vehemently in the opening pages

Day 13: Left-Wing Communism
Left Wing Communism is a masterful work by Lenin, it skilfully provides how to avoid opportunism, sectarianism and ultra-leftism. It is essential reading for all comrades looking to deepen their understanding of how to apply Marxism.
My stance on the Western question? Gorterite.
My conception of the party? Leninist.
My opinion on party dictatorship? Class dictatorship.
My sexism? Misandry.
No you don't. Council Communism has historically been one of those "Authoritarian" tendencies on the left (those who promote a dictatorship of the proletariat, using state machinery). PLEASE stop saying this, you are an anarchist.
hey everyone! today the worst thing ever happened to me, genuinely the worst feeling I've ever felt, so I am gonna take a break! I love my oomfies and I'll miss you!
monkeys believe council communism is anti party dictatorship, we believe in class dictatorship through party, council and organizational exercise of proletarian power
In a response to Luke Pickrell, M. Wilbur argues that Pickrell's focus on a democratic constitution destroys the workers’ revolutionary cause by pacifying it within social democratic reformism.
Destiny: uhm hi m-my n-name-
Finkelstein: MR. BONELLI I BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE GLEANED THAT FROM WIKIPEDIA YOU IGNORANT GREAT MASS OF SLOBBER AND DUST. YOU HORRID SLIMEY CREATURE OF SUBHUMAN FILTH! FOR SHAME IT IS THAT YOU CRAWL ABOUT THE EARTH YOU CHIMPANZEE.
I grew up very poor too,(Appalachian no heat poor), and yet, my family used theory more than any of the wealthy people we knew, that is simply because the proletariat IS CAPABLE and MUST use theory for the survival of its cause.
Good morning fascists!
Today we will be reading...
-Trade Unionism by Pannekoek
-Socialization by Pannekoek
-Council Communism by Pannekoek
-Selected works of Communism and its tactics by Sylvia Pankhurst
Fun fact: Lenin often painted landscapes to help him take a break from political work . His paintings are seen to show subtle signs of what was on his mind at the time. This is a personal favorite of mine
