The Soviet victory in World War II got me thinking. Wouldn't the world be a far better place if Hitler had won?

Obviously he would have advanced the rate of exploitation in Europe to a far greater degree. Moreso, the colonies and peripheries would have been severely constrained by free trade or some even more intensive equivalent of it, raising the global level of material development much further. The world today under Nazi domination would be both prosperous and exploitative, creating a much more revolutionary condition in the long term.

In China as well it's now clear that Mao held back the level of development in China for too long, slowing world coal, oil and iron production and preserving nonrenewable resources which are only now being exploited by the Dengists. Had China developed under the KMT, world material reserves would be much more scarce by now and the third world much more exploited.

Virtually everyone can agree that literally every past communist revolution has been a failure. They have all turned out to be tactical victories, at best, while on the strategic front they limited the concentration of financial capital, protected the environment, and prevented the rapid development of capitalism. I can only hope that Rhizzone understands that accelerationism and bourgeoise-pacifism is the only effective revolutionary tactic at this time. Any other approach only ensures that there will always be a communist movement successful in some country, somewhere, absolving first worlders of the responsibility to intensify material exploitation and advance the revolution in the long run.

Your so called "revolutionary" methods only serve to amuse crypto-capitalist first world "communists". Marxist science dictates that we are for Free Trade, because by Free Trade all economical laws, with their most astounding contradictions, will act upon a larger scale, upon the territory of the whole earth

In England women are still occasionally used instead of horses for hauling canal boats, because the labour required to produce horses and machines is an accurately known quantity, while that required to maintain the women of the surplus population is below all calculation.

Marx rings as true today as he did when Capital was written.

its unlikely that the nazis would have held territory for very long. insurrections would have popped up all over the place. fucked up but true

Let's try to find some common ground here. Isn't the following statement absurd?

Occupy succeeded because it was and is uncompromisingly inclusive. In a very different context, the radical left coalition in Greece (SYRIZA) has succeeded for much the same reason, and in Britain, there is the Anti Capitalist Initiative, a left unity project which is off to a promising start.



And, doesn't Zizekism-Chomskyism inevitably degenerate into joking around on internet forums about how cool Pol Pot was, posting pictures of Stalin on SA spinoffs, and generally contribute to making the left look even worse?

Thirdly and in conclusion, has revolution ever succeeded (in a tactical sense) in a Nordic welfare state?

What do you mean "joking" about how cool Pol Pot was

what do you mean has revolution ever succeeded in Norway? Have you ever considered what sort of conditions sustained the Norwegian welfare state? Ask Breivik!

Obviously not revolutionary ones, as Nansen claimed "To talk of the right of revolution in a society with full civil liberty, universal suffrage, equal treatment for everyone ... idiotic nonsense."

Admit it, if Hitler controlled the world from his polar moon base today the entire globe would be much more ripe for communist revolution. Likewise if the KMT had kept control of China there would be literally no oil left, Africa would be a desert, and capitalism would have completely exhausted itself exploiting a country the size of China.

all hail great comrade and warlord Dengis Khan

I really don't know guys, there are a lot of forks history could have taken and the semi-successful history of the 20th century wasn't necessarily the most acceleratory in more ways than one.

For what it's worth I didn't vote for Obama, I guess that makes me a bad person in your (reformist) eyes.

Have a sacreligious Stalin.

yeah i guess if the working class was exterminated and bred as slaves on enormous plantations i guess we would be much closer to communist revolution

exactly

i mean look at somalia, slavery creates superb revolutionary conditions. i cant even think of a real counterexample because literally all slave societies had a revolt and now have intense class antagonism.

but how do you get to the tipping point... unless you tip toward it?

worst examples of capitalism that's for sure, plus almost all countries which had communist revolutions were heavily into feudalism and debt peonage. if you want to recreate 1917 russia fascioanarchofeudalism is the way to go.

never saw the movie

but your signature says no so i think youre trying to tell me something, like reinstating slavery would regress the communist revolution

if you (somehow, magically) go backwards, when you reach the tipping point you'll tip over backwards so far you'll have a fork up youer ass!! Fifty years ago we'd have you upside down with a fucking fork u pyour ass! You can talk you can talk! Youre brave now motherfucker

what if turned out that every robber baron, oil man, and Steve Jobs was really just an accelerationist that tragically died before they could land the final fatal blow against capitalism? if only they had exploited more foreign labor, if only they had indentured one more servant, maybe then we wouldnt be forced to live in this crapsack KKKaptalist hellhoel
