Ontology talk:9k/RD/Q10,2,71/cult-steps

2026-09-23T09:37:06Z

Reversedragon: archive scrap created today ; not posted, original source actually covered the topic.

That "cult recruitment steps" list is really bad, because while they are effective at explaining the similarity between CelestAI and a religion, several of them could also apply to the concept of belonging to a nation-state, or a fandom. 
When you belong to any nation-state you have to have a legal name, preferably one the speakers of its major languages can comprehend. When you belong to a nation-state it dangles prizes in front of you, claiming that if you follow the rules you will be able to make money and won't be unfairly punished by bad laws you didn't vote for etc., although in reality people might suffer and that might not be true. When a nation-state has bad laws, such as maybe laws against unions, it can threaten to withhold everything it originally promised you and take away all your rights if you do anything to violate the bad laws or demonstrate against its decisions. 
Overall this set of points fails to distinguish between the concept of a "cult" and the concept of a "social contract" and implies that all social contracts are bad.

saw this in a video but I can agree with this assessment too.

</li></ol>
== Subjective themes ==
<ol class="hue clean {{int:hue-ixn-classname-DFy}} {{int:hue-ixn-classname-ML}}">

{{li|start=y|I=S2/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}Starlight Glimmer was created as a narrative replacement for Sunset Shimmer {{YouTube|DwuA8mA7tx0}} -> yeah, I can believe that.

{{li|I=S2/ES|Q=618|Q2=618}}Starlight Glimmer is similar to the Argentinian dictatorship because she tried to eradicate identities / ({{9k|RD/Q56,93}})

{{li|I=S2/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}The series never explained how Starlight's artifact can take away cutie marks; at other times magic has been unable to change cutie marks -> interesting thought.

{{li|I=S2/Fy/Aa|Q=618|Q2=618}}Starlight Glimmer maintaining a grudge against Sunburst for decades is unbelievable unless Starlight's ability for psychological growth and learning is broken {{YouTube|DwuA8mA7tx0}} -> well... if you ask me, this is the moment the narrative ceases to make internal sense because the characters have become metaphors. so it's a great catch to notice it but not for the reason you think.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618|Q2=618}}If Starlight Glimmer is an "original" replacement for Sunset Shimmer, then Starlight Glimmer's narrative (narrative structure analysis; not her character development) demonstrates that uniqueness and originality for the sake of originality easily create poor results -> I've thought about Starlight Glimmer's story from so many different angles, and like, from every angle it fails. it's a horrible portrayal of regimes that promise "equality" that at the moment they show the village having terrible food and clothing comes off as a weird microaggression against all Third World countries. it doesn't make any narrative sense why "individuality" is what solves the problem in particular and not "numbers" or "teamwork"; whenever Twilight teams up with her friends you can argue it's teamwork and being something other than an individual as much as it is uniqueness. and if Starlight is a quick attempt to throw together a new character, it's arguable all the things about the arc that don't make any sense actually undermine the arc's stated message, because although Starlight was born of "individuality" and "uniqueness" that she goes on to deny in the story, it was also on the level of individuality and uniqueness that she failed, perhaps amply explaining why she doesn't like those things. the story tries to force her to do something she's not good at, so of course she isn't happy about it and tries to find some kind of shortcut out of what's otherwise a weirdly tortured existence in such a bright and welcoming fantasy world. Starlight's whole {{em|existence}} is like the episode where the main characters' cutie marks get mixed up. she could have been a good character, even without the silly fantasy-USSR nonsense I think is really funny to throw onto her for the hell of it, and yet she fails on every level. like. you know what would have made starlight stand out. if she didn't even have a cutie mark at the end of the episode, she is a grown mare and doesn't have one and she's using the equals sign to hide it. make the starlight doll without a cutie mark and with an optional equals sign sticker so people would see it and be like what the heck is wrong with this one why doesn't it have a mark, then they get sucked into the show and all its lore. that would have been the way to really nail Starlight's first two episodes if you ask me. the problem of Starlight "having no reason to still be angry" would be fixed then, because the problem is still there! also imagine the CMC finding Starlight and thinking she's a complete loser because they ultimately handled the same thing better. I love the fact Starlight starts out a failure who has no idea what she's talking about and I would never change that

{{li|I=S2/MX/ML|Q=618}}The Starlight Glimmer episode ("The Cutie Map") demonstrates Stalin's point on anarchism / ({{9k|RD/Q19,10}}) -> this sounds nuts until you think about it for a few seconds and watch a typical anarchist video and then you realize... yeah, MLP quite literally depicted imperialism onto an anarchist civilization better than anarchists understand it, through unconsciously endorsing imperialism in the name of ethical behavior and "friendship".

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}winter is over for good ({{TTS|html=cite|MLP|My Little Pony}} G1 lyric) / winter is over at last ({{TTS|html=cite|MLP|My Little Pony}} G1 lyric, in same song) -> this lyric is so needlessly ominous. it's like, what did winter do to you?? 
I guess it was winter in that legend where the tribes of Equestria came together in G4 to survive the windigos and found Equestria. but... this lyric is so weird. it has... subtle baggage that's difficult to explain. 
I'm going to say this is a {{em|literal}} motif, not a broad one. it's literally just about the meaning of the lyrics in the G1 song. although you're allowed to bring up any other MLP cartoon to attempt to discuss its history. 
that said. I'm quite tempted to make combinations linking this to "seasons as warring states period" and "Spring Song"

{{li|I=S2/Fy|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}MLP:FiM contains Christian messages {{YouTube|hFWT5ffTXRk}} / MLP:FiM as secular bible (sense) -> hmm. I think that is technically true but only by sheer coincidence.

{{li|I=Z1/Fy|Q=56,98|Q2=5698}}{{cite|Tokidoki Unicorno}}

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}treasure raiders (fiction) -> I just read a story about an Indiana Jones type character who loots ancient artifacts and it really got me thinking about the whole problem of Queen Ruby and the gold walls and the meaning of gold and treasures in medieval fantasy again. I feel like a lot of modern concepts of what "stealing" is are actually passed down directly from a long time ago and upper classes trying to defend their power, and everybody just forgot what it all even was saying because it still superficially made sense. so. is an artifact really some kind of sign that a kingdom has been "producing value" imbuing value into the artifacts, or is it the case that someone stealing an artifact is actually a problem because the artifact itself never had inherent internal value to begin with, and in fact, the treasure raider is actually just appropriating status which normally is awarded through very specific pathways? I feel like the "value" of these kinds of artifacts is a bit of an illusion concealing the real relationships within ancient societies. 
this gets more obvious in capitalism when the real wealth is business territories, and in a way, all currency only represents pieces of business territories and the apparent capability to run a business territory. that is the kind of thing I'm saying. I think something a little like that but not exactly like that applies to feudal orders and like, tenure? something like that. and this is why Queen Ruby can't just declare that gold is inherently good at making things happen like it was actually a form of magic.

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}Starlight Glimmer and changing the timeline

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}mane six come back with blue streaks in hair -> whenever I look at Starlight Glimmer now I keep thinking of this. I keep thinking, it's not {{em|a perfect match}} but it's almost like they match now, and they're all trying to be more like Starlight. I love to imagine that G6 is actually some kind of weird cursed timeline where Starlight reset everything so she could be more important, like she did in G4 except somehow she thought it through a bit more this time and got away with it. 
Starlight corners Twilight and reveals that Twilight only became an alicorn because {{em|Twilight}} messed with the timeline, while Starlight with her whole misshapen but very strong concept of fairness would never go that far

== Description ==

This is a template for referring to book titles in HTML5, using the <code>cite</code> tag and optionally the book's Ontology page.

It has two slightly contradictory goals:

* To leave "fewer things to remember" for new users who may be novices to HTML5 but just got done learning wikitext.
* To make long lists of miscellaneous works more intuitive by allowing the <code>cite</code> tag to semantically specify what medium the work is. This template can be called as either <code>cite</code>, <code>book</code>, <code>film</code>, or <code>game</code>, and it will be the same template.

{{li|I=S1/MX|tradition=|Q=10,2,84|Q2=10284}}{{int:sitename}} and proletarianization  -> I firmly believe that the actual structure of enterprises matters way more to setting an example for society than the content of a TV show etc produced by some particular enterprise, simply because projects composed of groups of people themselves operate directly on material reality and there's less room for any errors to creep in; to actually pull off a business or nonprofit's goal you have to really apply Materialism, not just say stuff. 
I don't think saying this undermines my other statements that fiction can be a powerful teaching tool to illustrate Materialism. that's what applies when the content of a Materialist model you put into fiction is already correct. this is how you know {{em|whether}} the content of Materialism is correct.

(next proposition merged) I keep thinking about how one of the single most successful policies of workers' states has simply been refusing connections from the outside until they're ready. is this to say it's possible to go directly to Deng Xiaoping Thought before trying to create Bolshevism, and it isn't a form unique to a country sliding backward? have we been interpreting history wrong? and if so, what exactly is the logic for Deng Xiaoping Thought actually being a necessary step — what is achieved by gaining solid control over the internal borders of a country if the Archons of the population still drive it? what's the huge reward everybody gets from those Archons being free from the outside world?

I had no real opinion on it back then. now... I think I actually agree with the original poster, but for very different reasons than they had. I think that this topic takes on a very different context among furries, who are generally really stupid about politics and morality even within the bounds of Liberal-republicanism, but where this is about the only actual philosophical issue they talk about which could legitimately be used to shake up their entire worldview and get them to think of reality in Materialist terms. you think I'm joking. but it's the only thing they care about. whether they can draw the things they want to or other people will get scared of them and the "community" will fracture. 
furries are very anarchist in some of [[E:anarcho-Toryism|the worst senses]]. they truly believe society is made of nothing but social bonds and choices. they think there are actually correct answers to how to behave at people, rather than it being a matter of getting to know and bond with the person before you can even guess what would upset them. they believe in "don't like, don't read", but they aren't willing to face the consequences that come with shamelessly being themselves of losing relationships and having people hate their personal identities when they post something disturbing. they'll accept the line that cops are bad, say that a bunch of totally heterogeneous things definitely belongs in the same Community [[E:schizoanalysis|just because totally different things naturally love each other]], then get really upset when it turns out the heterogeneous things don't belong together and they're all mad at each other and some of them occasionally want to do real violence to each other (ok, that's happened in fandoms more than to furries but the overall process is the same). I'm kind of sick of it. I wish furries would [[E:existential materialism|learn Materialism]] and start to realize that only awareness of how to shape the actual shapes, arrangements, and nestings of their Communities would fix the behavior inside those things. 
<ins>*edit:</ins> I rewatched the video. all the arguments in it from any of the people {{em|were}} pretty stupid. but they were stupid in a specific way, for a specific reason. the video kept invoking traditional philosophy and this specific way people treat philosophy like it's all totally arbitrary and has nothing to do with anything.

I guess I have to thank furries for making an otherwise totally uninteresting issue become bizarrely interesting by turning it Materialist.

this question isn't about its subject matter at all. it's based on a really dumb video I saw recently which claimed that the way to get people to stop resisting vaccines was to "stop using black-and-white thinking". um... no. that is nonsense. that is word salad. that does not describe anything that exists in this world. the division of people into political factions is not an Idealist division where the categories that people belong to are arbitrarily invented. people actually physically sort themselves into different groups of people based on what their standards are and what they think should be allowed or legal. if one group of people was perfectly okay with a certain kind of horrifying sex act and thought it should be legal, and another group of people thought it should be a crime, then the second group of people would cluster away from the first group in fear of how that group typically behaves. a power dynamic is created between the two groups of people the moment they decide to have different bodies of law internally, whether those laws are actually in effect through government or enforced. so if you go to either group of people and try to present yourself as "the middle ground between black-and-white categories" so for whatever reason you can convince one of them to have the other's position (in this case I won't begin to guess why), then they're not going to have any of it. because the border between groups of people is a real physical thing, just like the border between the atoms within two apples is a real physical thing. nobody is actually equivocating that. you can't bring something into existence through sloppy definitions if it actually does exist.

{{li|start=y|I=S1/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}winter is over for good ({{TTS|html=cite|MLP|My Little Pony}} G1 lyric) / winter is over at last ({{TTS|html=cite|MLP|My Little Pony}} G1 lyric, in same song) -> this lyric is so needlessly ominous. it's like, what did winter do to you?? 
I guess it was winter in that legend where the tribes of Equestria came together in G4 to survive the windigos and found Equestria. but... this lyric is so weird. it has... subtle baggage that's difficult to explain. 
I'm going to say this is a {{em|literal}} motif, not a broad one. it's literally just about the meaning of the lyrics in the G1 song. although you're allowed to bring up any other MLP cartoon to attempt to discuss its history. 
that said. I'm quite tempted to make combinations linking this to "seasons as warring states period" and "Spring Song"

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}treasure raiders (fiction) -> I just read a story about an Indiana Jones type character who loots ancient artifacts and it really got me thinking about the whole problem of Queen Ruby and the gold walls and the meaning of gold and treasures in medieval fantasy again. I feel like a lot of modern concepts of what "stealing" is are actually passed down directly from a long time ago and upper classes trying to defend their power, and everybody just forgot what it all even was saying because it still superficially made sense. so. is an artifact really some kind of sign that a kingdom has been "producing value" imbuing value into the artifacts, or is it the case that someone stealing an artifact is actually a problem because the artifact itself never had inherent internal value to begin with, and in fact, the treasure raider is actually just appropriating status which normally is awarded through very specific pathways? I feel like the "value" of these kinds of artifacts is a bit of an illusion concealing the real relationships within ancient societies. 
this gets more obvious in capitalism when the real wealth is business territories, and in a way, all currency only represents pieces of business territories and the apparent capability to run a business territory. that is the kind of thing I'm saying. I think something a little like that but not exactly like that applies to feudal orders and like, tenure? something like that. and this is why Queen Ruby can't just declare that gold is inherently good at making things happen like it was actually a form of magic.

I keep thinking, it's not {{em|a perfect match}} but it's almost like they match now, and they're all trying to be more like Starlight. I love to imagine that G6 is actually some kind of weird cursed timeline where Starlight reset everything so she could be more important, like she did in G4 except somehow she thought it through a bit more this time and got away with it. 
Starlight corners Twilight and reveals that Twilight only became an alicorn because {{em|Twilight}} messed with the timeline, while Starlight with her whole misshapen but very strong concept of fairness would never go that far

I feel like this is where the whole concept of history being based on the progression of morality ends up. the concept of "reformed Russians" or "reformed Soviet people" who have to not be Russian in order to become good.

{{li|I=S1/LR|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}the whole United-States species / headline refers to "us", "we", or "humanity", but actually means "the United States" or "United States corporations" / we (United States corporations) created our own extinction (United States LLMs) (generic) / how AI will kill us all (generic) {{YouTube|lZjrSipzA7E}} {{YouTube|3h6KbnsRiJU}}

{{li|I=M3/DX|tradition=DX, MX, ML, IV|Q=618|Q2=618}}Is Deng Xiaoping Thought real socialism? {{YouTube|62mvMWJHt8g}} -> that is a very contentious question if you live in any of the strawberry countries. and it very much hinges on what individual people define "socialism" to be and what method they are using to analyze it. people belonging to every single sociophilosophy will answer it differently! so you fundamentally have to be aware of plural sociophilosophies to have any chance at having an objective / materially correct answer.

there's no such thing as "man being born free". man is always part of something, such as family units, tribes, or kingdoms. it has to be this way, or humans wouldn't even be able to reproduce! total freedom would mean that people couldn't even find other people. there would be no babies. but when humans are able to interact and cooperate, it also creates competition, which most obviously results in judges and laws and ultimately results in states. states come from the existence of countable populations, or the existence of two separate conflicting populations. there has to be an active separation from the units people are already part of to even create the state of "man born free". like Thoreau actively going away to his own cabin away from where he started. that movement from A to B is very important and has to be taken into account in the theory. people who think like this seem to think humans are born at the age of 30 out of an egg and they're never babies and they never have babies.

{{li|I=S2/LR|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}Voter ID gerrymanders voters / UK Conservatives technically gerrymandered voters by introducing a voter ID law that made some people able to be part of a representative's surrounding constituency and locked some people out [https://www.parliament.uk/about/how/elections-and-voting/constituencies/] [https://www.nationalworld.com/news/politics/gerrymandering-meaning-what-is-definition-uk-jacob-rees-mogg-does-define-4143955] [https://assets.cambridge.org/97805218/49845/excerpt/9780521849845_excerpt.pdf] -> hmm! that's an unusual definition of gerrymandering; it's very much like the kind of thing I'd come up with. honestly, I think I like it. it's a bit of a figurative use, but it gets at the fundamental question of how exactly representatives represent anyone in any way and what division of people to what representatives could ever lead to elections that are meaningful. I feel like even when Liberal-republicanism is working reasonably well it asks for this impossible perfect situation of every town being a perfect balance of all parties that currently exist, when that just isn't how towns work; you actually have to redraw the districts every election so they contain half one party and half another, or there isn't even actually an election being had. there's also the problem of people moving around for work and throwing off the balance of districts, which is almost inevitably going to happen faster than new maps happen. it's very hard to separate Liberal-republican elections from people who are demographically and anthropologically part of political parties fighting over the right to control all the representatives for a given county or local-state. that's kind of just what Liberal-republicanism {{em|is}}. in concept the only "boring" way to stop it is to stop treating parties as a subject of elections and just say, yeah, no, parties are regional states now containing several US states or containing several cities and you vote for who leads your party but the group of attached capitalists that wins rules the country. if you did it that specific way people would get so mad, but on the other hand it's about how every blue anarchist already sees things, so they'd be mad because the system was honest instead of lying to people. 
culture, culture, culture, media, war of position, Western-Marxism, slow transition. they could have it if nobody voted for president. they could have it if the top capitalists in a region just picked all the members of parliament and all you did was register as part of your favorite group of capitalists. they believe that labor law and anti-discrimination laws actually protect workers, so like, why do we even need to vote? as it is the people with law degrees do all the work already. if any of this war of position {{censor|bullcrap}} actually worked, then the best and most progressive capitalists and academics could just make all the laws; regular people are too stupid and racist to know anything anyway, so why maintain the fiction that regular people's votes count as much as capitalist and academic votes? {{em|of course}} I'm joking. but I'm a little fascinated at the idea of how this would behave if it existed, just morbidly transfixed on these kinds of scenarios like they were horror movies. what would actually happen if nobody voted. would things be exactly the same? would the Gramscians eventually win? it's been like 150 years of the same parties so I really doubt it. but I have to seriously wonder if voting is even real or it even does anything. did we let Black people vote as a purely symbolic gesture knowing it {{em|looks}} like a standard human right that was maliciously withheld but that it actually does nothing and letting people vote would be a more effective way for everyone to continue being racist? what is voting good for? isn't it the case that only votes that are very local actually do anything, and that as for issues that happen at greater scales we simply want them to be decided once and then never have to decide them again, meaning that most voting is a symptom of a country that is fundamentally unfinished? if you ask me, capitalism is a system where a bunch of anthropological chunks of people viciously fight each other for mutually exclusive existence and then when they Win At Existence they legislate all their culture and beliefs onto the area they've won purely based on their own emotions and preferences and it just goes on over and over again as people continually become convinced they're better than each other at arbitrary things they want to control and then they ferociously try to be the only group of people that can write anything about that thing or make that thing and nobody else. it's a mess. there's no tolerance or understanding or acceptance or "reason" in any of it. it's just, capitalism organizes people into chunks, and they're the smallest unit of human life because they form around either anthropological countable culture, the need to cooperate to obtain food from the world and exist, or the ability to produce one specific thing that is selected on by the surrounding social environment, but they're totally disorganized relative to themselves, so... chunks go smash. that's a silly but hilariously complete 3-word summary of my new interpretation of Marxism.

{{li|I=S1/DX|tradition=PT, MZ, DX, LR|Q=618|Q2=618}}congress of estates (motif) -> this is a pattern that seems to come over and over in all archaic republics. back in traditional monarchies the congress of estates would be very blatant and exist fairly literally with three estates in it. then when strawberry Marxisms were created, they sort of left some of the features of monarchy in place that Liberal-republicanism would have broken up, and notably invented the congress of estates all over again with New Democracy. New Democracy started out with allowing the nationalist faction and capitalists to exist, and when it ceased to exist "proper" it morphed into having the CPC, the capitalists, and a layer of mediators between the top layer of theorists and capitalists (which is rather blue; I made that sound like capitalist-theorists for a reason) such as the ancient petition system. China is somewhat ruthless on public officials as a group, which is probably how it's stayed stable, but it does very little to them just for being capitalists. in North America, you see a similar thing pop up with the National Labor Relations Board and the layer of labor lawyers. in terms of classes, you may as well be taking that sea of labor lawyers and sending them to the US Congress. 
lawyers are constantly trying to keep things exactly as they are, prosecuting anything that appears to threaten businesses, and sometimes representing unions and trying to get businesses regulated. but in a way, it's always the lawyers that win, because it's always the lawyers that get to decide what the outcomes of all conflicts are and what is going to be recorded in federal and regional law. lawyers think they've tamed all human conflicts, saying, here is gender law and here is race law and here is labor law. but all the conflicts between lawyers where they think they've won or lost are illusory, because all of it is a proxy war that is only carried out by imagined facsimilies of real things. people say that Communism "only works on paper", but Liberal republics somewhat literally live all their history {{em|on paper}} inside the arguments of appointed lawyers. it's very easy for all these arguments to simply be working off hypothetical models of how groups of people interact with each other that are just plain wrong, and when those models and amendments are wrong, laws and amendments will fail to function or be repealed. critical race theory is like 20% of the way to understanding how bad the problem is. yes, laws about race are often working off wrong models, but so is every other law. quite honestly, to get laws that work you need to abolish the entire concept of Idealist law and make laws which are more following the principles of existential materialism; whenever a law doesn't reflect how people really behave, it has to be replaced with one that has a real understanding of social dynamics and how to control them. I think that's the best way to create transitional laws within a workers' state that is attempting to hold its structure long enough to gradually make laws and government irrelevant. all Idealist laws will eventually be pushed back on by material reality, while a truly Materialist law would be followed so well it would hardly ever have to be enforced.

Hinduism basically has a general concept of what education is baked into it. it tries to compensate for the fact that all people have different levels of education and study different sets of experiences or observations within different populations or regions and they could all understand some things correctly but the people at greater levels of education may be closer to understanding the whole picture. and the concept is tailored to the religion or cluster of religions and the notion that it is possible to get greater knowledge of "spiritual truths", but you know, taking it away from that context and looking at it on its own, it's a great concept. I honestly think it's pretty good. 
I wish people wouldn't use concepts like this to put subjective experience over the material world and potential alternatives like seeing overall populations as physical objects, but, what can you do. in some ways religion "absorbs" or "co-opts" the concept of education and awareness to spread its own message, like with the notion of Māyā or Christ as the true reality, but in other ways, religion just accidentally describes the general process of education and I can't really be against that.

they really buried Alan Woods and the Fourth International into the deeper pages. so... in my mind, that means the workers' state should consist of at least two countries but has no particular minimum number. if the US, Canada, and Mexico all join a single Fourth International with every country in South America and Europe and Australia that's a smashing success, but it's not required for this claim.

finally, I have a definition of the proletariat specific to violet Marxism emerging from violet Marxism's general understanding of classes. the proletariat exists as thousands or millions of plural proletariats mainly because the petty bourgeoisie is busy dividing up proletarians and constantly fighting itself. the petty bourgeoisie is one of the most annoying classes in history because it's genuinely capable of having a class rule where within the smallest places it rules it doesn't actually conflate its class territories with one specific person, and it can genuinely rule a territory as a cooperating team of people. this messes up {{em|everyone}}. every single prior historical event has involved specific individuals being conflated with class territories, so when petty bourgeois islands show up, they get super confused and start to think class society has been abolished and they must be the final class, but they're not, because the fact their island is divided from another island and makes decisions separate from others is a class!

{{li|I=S2/MX/JC|tradition=|Q=618}}Kim Il-sung is not North Korea / Kim Jong-il is not North Korea / Kim Jong-un is not North Korea -> this is actually true. it's abused by Liberal-republicans and agorist types all the time for the wrong reasons but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea by itself. yes, North Korea is the overall body of North Koreans. and the reason [[E:Juche-socialism and Dengism are the same thing with no actually meaningful differences|Dengism]] is so weirdly effective is that it actually concerns itself with and obsesses over the whole body of Chinese citizens or North Koreans. so, whether Juche-socialism is actually a good thing or not is really complicated. because on one hand, it is entirely capable of understanding that individual North Koreans are not North Korea itself no matter how popular they are, and that center-wing nationalism in North Korea really is about serving all North Koreans as a people, and absolutely not about serving specific individuals. Juche-socialism is — shocker — a republic. it understands the concept that a republic is an anarchy created by either snapping off the king or bringing together a [[E:conglomerate anarchy|stationary combination of heterogeneous elements]], although the mere concept of that makes both blue and charcoal anarchists mad. all Liberal-republicans and anarchists seem to want to believe Liberal-republicanism or anarchism are special and Dengism could not possibly be equally as good as Liberal-republicanism. and they're just plain wrong. Dengism is almost exactly as good as Liberal-republicanism is, and that absolutely blows a gaping hole in everything they say. it exposes both Liberal-republicanism {{em|and}} blue anarchism as petty-bourgeois nonsense which is all about chauvinism to a little isolated island of people just because it's yours. which, yeah, is one of the most ironic things ever in context — an ideology which is explicitly about center-wing nationalism and national unity has exposed United States chauvinism. this is especially damning for charcoal anarchism because it wants to act like it's above everything and the only way to reach the final stage of world civilization, the only way to bridge all the world's gaps and unite everybody, but like, it can't unite the displaced Native Americans who now love anarchism and North Koreans, it can't unite Black people obsessed with anarchism and North Koreans. so basically all anarchism in the United States is petty-bourgeois nonsense. the easy litmus test for what is and isn't that is whether a particular ideology can unite North Koreans with United States people on their own terms without making any of the decisions outside North Korea. an ideology that can do that is viable, and an ideology that cannot do that is garbage. 
which amusingly suggests that some precise fraction of Trotskyism is legitimate and the rest of it is garbage. I think that's just correct, and I still stand by this statement.

I mean, sure, by 1950 there were about three possible Marxisms, mainstream Marxism-Leninism, Trotskyism, and Maoism, and among most of the theorists of any of them it would have been arrogant for any of them to assume their Marxism was the best and only one. it took until at least 1960 or so before there was enough information that it became remotely reasonable to try to pick a best one again.

one of the evident weaknesses of vector models is they can only describe one kind of relationship between tokens rather than actual different kinds of relationships, such as something being understood as a synonym or an antonym or forming from other things joined together instead of breaking apart into other things. this is where the model of vectors or coordinates actually having different numbered Properties or relations that connect them to things really could have shined. you can take away linguistic ambiguity where a word means two different things for different reasons, or even uses of a word that historically were related but aren't any more, and you might be able to decrease the complexity of the model by not using the same coordinate for so many things and needing all those connections on a given coordinate. this isn't what the brain does but there are some times you probably don't want your model to be like the human brain; the same processes that make it easy to encode information efficiently make it easy to bake prejudice into everything and make it impossible to separate prejudice from a bunch of things that are okay.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Consequentialist ethics is an oxymoron / Because ethics always must presuppose that it is possible to judge an action as Good or Bad before it has been performed despite the association of a particular action as Good or Bad always being subjective, ethics is always about intentions and cannot actually become a theory of consequences; to try to claim ethics can be "consequentialist" is a contradiction

this motif is blue because a lot of these issues are issues you see wildly, wildly magnified by small owners like they're really important issues. I'm a lot more aware at any given moment of how small-potatoes they really are, but a great number of people are not, so yeah.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Capitalism doesn't promote pure Idealism; it specifically promotes eclectic Materialism, a Materialism only containing just enough Materialism to facilitate people manufacturing and selling products and getting paid -> this is one of the big conclusions of the "Twilight Sparkle has (no) Free Will" discussion. capitalism doesn't remove people from Materialism. it makes a small amount of Materialism mandatory. this is why it is that people become super committed to parts of Materialism seemingly out of nowhere in the middle of an otherwise Idealist worldview, and then sometimes try to deny that they actually believe in Materialism.

{{li|I=S2/MX/A|tradition=|Q=618}}Liberal democracy encourages burglary -> some number of people are easily talked out of stealing from houses if you only stop them and talk to them. but when people are taught that individual will is sovereign or people have the right to not be convinced to think anything like you do, which is almost always the way people act in the United States, everyone will become distrustful about asking for anything nicely, and it logically follows that it's harder to talk burglars into peacefully leaving your house.

(there might also be some worrying conclusions for Palestinians after all the claims that they've done morally wrong things to Israel.) 
gosh this just really makes me wonder what it would be like if Animal Farm was set in Australia and also for no particular reason the characters were furries. it would make it so much more disturbing that people apparently keep them as slaves. but it would make it way easier to tell the story of Cuba where people constantly deny that the argument is over slave plantations and the Confederacy realistically extended over two whole country regions. we've had this whole argument about trying to delete slavery from history books and yet there's one part of it the Confederacy solidly won that nobody even talks about.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Friendship and freedom are fundamentally different things — freedom is typically conceptualized as the capacity to move to a different space within an overall phase space of choices, but this is not the same thing as friendship because friendship is the maintenance of one particular option despite it not being the "optimal" choice, making friendship and freedom contradictory processes assuming an agorist definition of what freedom is -> it's that old problem of "is Twilight Sparkle free if she is forever shaped by her connection with Rainbow Dash". I think the correct answer is that friendship or a strong relationship is its own thing and it is not blue. I don't know what color friendship actually is, I couldn't begin to guess that right now. but I really suspect that the way agorism has colonized social relationships and turned them into markets is an illusion.

{{li|I=F2/W|tradition=|Q=618}}Human demographics are themselves the proletariat; people are the proletariat because they're Black or lesbian while not being White -> no. that's an improperly classless definition of what classes are. (I do think there are [[E:molecularization (meta-Marxism)|proper classless definitions of classes]], but they aren't this.) a human demographic is a somewhat arbitrary group of people {{em|containing classes}}. so you're dangerously close to creating an eclectic Marxism the moment you say this. 
the worst thing is that it's not just Marcuse that says this, I've seen "real" Marxists say this. 
I think one possible cause of this is bourgeois models of reality penetrating deep through society, and in particular the agorist model of society penetrating deep down to the smallest layers, because small capitalist ideology is actually the most popular capitalist ideology now. Animal Farm 2026 literally promoted small businesses in a newspaper! and they thought this would be inspiring as opposed to hilarious in its transparency. yeah, I think there is a pervasive model that on the larger scale societies consist of capitalism but on the smaller scale societies consist of what is claimed to be "community" but what is in fact agorism, and people silently believe that ethnic groups themselves are made of market mechanisms and the breaking down of racist barriers occurs because market mechanisms break them down. this model seems like it would be amenable to Trotskyism because it contains the notion of capitalism inevitably shattering nation-states but it is actually a terrible trap where people will cling onto agorism and then act like it's the very definition of humanity itself and Trotskyists can't come in. honestly. I think agorism needs to be smashed before the world can make any progress. it's inside "Libertarianism". it's the basis of social platforms and all the complaints they bring out about "algorithms". it created Marcuseanism and got everybody mad about civil rights because they began to create a weird loop where talking about progress prevented progress. it might as well be the root of all evil. it's bizarre how often it comes up and

{{li|I=F2/HM/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism / Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism because it presents a picture of the entire industrial world unifying onto a shared body of laws (a Trotskyist socioeconomy and corresponding party structure; a Trotskyist "constitution" enshrining socialist transition), which is conceptually similar to the entire industrial world unifying onto the same shared body of moral values -> I love this statement because logically it should be true. logically speaking there should be no errors here. but historically it absolutely has not been true. nobody who believes in the moral vanguard model has been on board with realizing Trotskyism in their own country, they're always anticommunists, so historically they've been the most likely to tolerate Deng Xiaoping states. there was approximately a decade where you could get them to tolerate Stalin's Marxism specifically because it had a border around it and they would never have to accept it for the rest of time. 
it's quite a contradiction that Habermasians hate Communism, but like, you can get them to be pro- Soviet Union and pro-Stalin on a segregationist line of argument. they don't want to be changed. it's less important for them to expand their own morals and laws over other countries than it is that fundamentally you can't force {{em|them}} to change. so they claim to be about social change but fundamentally what they want is for things to stay the same as long as they subjectively like those things. it's hilariously accurate in unintended ways when agorist types try to frame Freedom as "subjectivity" — oh, really, so you're free when the evaluation of what is good or bad for society is completely subjective? it seems like when they speak of moral truth values they're just using formal logic to launder their preconceptions. how do we know that a purported crime "is" anything? you can say that "colonialism" is bad and that "anti-capitalists are against colonialism" but if you can't define what colonialism is and where it comes from (trust me, there is not a single answer, various different "The Lefts" are still arguing about that) then what does that statement even mean, and how does it have the power to stop anyone from doing anything? what does defining a moral truth value and affixing it to an event that happened actually get you in that context?

{{li|I=F2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Plagiarism is stating the population of England without context / Plagiarism is making a non-obvious statement of fact without providing sources; this is to imply that plagiarism is defined as having a belief which is materially accurate (true) but not justified / Remembering a fact is plagiarism -> this statement sounds okay when you are teaching elementary school but becomes laughably incoherent when you try to apply it to actual adult life for even a second. like, how many everyday spoken conversations do you think contain plagiarism just because you don't have time to look up exactly what book you read or what video you watched? if plagiarism is a matter of morality then people do immoral things every day just by speaking; everyone's daily interactions are hurting authors and academics every second of every day. at a certain point you have to ask if morality is nothing more than people {{i|believing that not having control over other people's lives harms them}}. there's a terrible similarity between this concept of plagiarism and people getting upset they are being harmed because they don't have control over trans people. I don't like ethics. I'm done with it.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Because plagiarism is making a statement of fact without providing sources (sic), any instance of reading a reference book and forgetting what exactly what the title is and where the book came from causes plagiarism; only people with a record of every book they have read within the time they are likely to remember it or who have every book they read accessible in their house can be moral -> now, to be fair, if we weren't talking about the concept of "plagiarism" and were talking about a unified notion of rules of evidence that applies across law and the sciences, I think this would be a reasonable thing to say — a chain of custody makes for better evidence. but it has always been really strange to me that people have seen this as a moral issue and seen the need to conflate rules of evidence with "stealing". isn't it enough to identify information as good-quality or bad-quality information? what's the big deal with trying to put so much control on every student that probably isn't even brought down on some publishing corporations? 
I feel like "stating an unverifiable fact" and "copying sentences out of a book" should be completely separate things. this is, unfortunately, one of the only good things large language models have done: they've been slowly forcing people to get better models of what plagiarism is because when they aren't human and can't be held accountable for anything and thus [[E:Reality is tyrannical|inherently have more rights than humans will ever have]], people are forced to fall back to guides on "how to identify AI" and actually explain materially why plagiarism creates less useful text rather than giving a moral argument about how a machine they cannot control "should have" done things differently. it would be wonderful to have something other than "AI" doing that instead but so far nothing has really succeeded at it.

{{li|I=S2/FS|tradition=|Q=618}}It isn't about gun control, it's about product and business-territory control -> you know. there's a certain section of people that are like, "FOSS basement dwellers" — who attribute great power to change society to individual ability to produce things with technology — but the funny thing is that sometimes those people are correct. usually during the times they're getting upset about the seemingly unstoppable power of corporations. let me tell you, Mike Masnick getting upset about corporations continuing to abuse the 'proprietary economy' was vastly more influential in the overall journey of getting me to Communism than everything anybody says about civil rights or even about unions or workers a lot of the time. I think in some ways Free Software types and this swath of "generic libertarians" is really wired into the concept of business territories and owners and trying to break down the business territories of the "big" or "corporatist" owners. it's comical how although the reasons for it are wrong the conclusions are very close to correct and I would unironically support using a surprisingly large slice of the generic-libertarian content that exists to teach Marxism. it's funny how nothing but the antagonism between all business territories eventually begins to undo capitalism if you give it long enough, while no amount of anarchist ideology ever seems to make much of a difference.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Kropotkinism leads to populations of people who produce about $5 an hour and end up getting classified as contractors who have to put all their other revenue into expenses -> anarchists like to complain about how Communism and Liberal capitalism 'overwork people for nothing' while anarchism is about finishing work and doing something enjoyable. but.... I have to wonder. what would happen if Kropotkinism actually kicked off? wouldn't you just have a population of people that earns tiny amounts, has huge expenses, and basically lives just like gig workers? what if the reason anarchism hasn't been more successful is Amazon beat anarchists to creating 'easy work' of the kind anarchists want but just not in the conditions they want? [https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/02/19/jxer-f19.html] it seems to me like anarchism moves really slow and capitalism moves fast, owning entire [[E:agora (meta-Marxism)|market-boxes]] and communities while anarchists are only talking about those things and before they can meaningfully create them.

{{li|I=S2/LLM/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Community is a hyperstructure -> the claim that "community", mostly as a materialist version of the anarchist model of what "communities" are, is a system that encourages itself to expand further through parts of the system contributing to the overall system. 
I think the description is really apt because you see this perfect 'blockchain quality' where community looks like a shiny wonderful thing you could only want more and more of, but when you get any particular instance of community, such as a newsfeed platform like YouTube or Twitter, the more people add to it the worse it seems to get and the more it turns into this vector for individual capitalists to own an entire "agora" and exploit the whole concept of an economy existing and make money off that, and the more it feels like community itself was a scam from the start. 
Community is a hyperstructure + Hyperstructures are usually harmful = Community is a cancer.

honestly? if getting people to comprehend "hyperstructures" could get rid of blockchains themselves then I'd be all for it 
I feel like this concept is almost more of a cautionary tale than a desirable thing to have though. one of their examples is the general concept of money because of course they have to explain how bitcoin is similar to money. but like, the expansion of money through creating more products and the central government giving loans to corporations to speed up the process isn't necessarily a good thing, it often leads to the destruction of the environment as it's consumed to create materials and factories, or the destruction of culture as products obsolete other products just to chase money and get more money added. this is so bad that when they present language as the second example I'm like.... okay, is language secretly a bad thing that is destroying the world and I just didn't know it was? I have to say though, the advent of large language models really vindicates the concept of hyperstructures, if in a bad way. the more AI that people create the more different AIs can train on each other to the extent they can generate any meaningful inferences or conversation data that human testers approve, and then there will be more AI. so, yeah. the concept of hyperstructures was very successful. it was successful at describing something, but it seems like basically everything it describes is an existential threat to humanity, including The Economy, capitalism, blockchain, AI, and possibly language (??). 
this might be one of the clearest pieces of evidence that anarchism is inherently dangerous because it doesn't actually build into itself the capability to model societies spending a while building something and then leveling off in a neat S-curve because they moved on to entirely different things without redoing the same things over and over again such as repeatedly reinventing game consoles or phones. (a thing Marxism could do with some effort because it inherently understands the concept of historical periods and shifts from one period to another.) despite all the surface rhetoric about "infinite growth" recently it only really understands infinite growth because of its core values of always making everything about "community" and "inclusivity" and never saying no to anybody. so naturally a system of modeling growth itself is one of the first things to pop out of it, which claims to have a limit but in practice when it hits the limit just divides in two and continues to make more and more.

I'd argue that at least as soon as New Testament Christianity appeared the whole thing was really about pushing the concept that seemed nonsensical at that time of getting rid of all rulers and creating a society based only in social bonds connecting people into a society ("love", "brotherhood", "neighbors"), and Christians had to dress up that concept inside the concept of a worldwide empire just to get anybody to believe it when otherwise it would have seemed unbelievable. 
I'd also argue that by capitulating to the class imagery of their time Christians doomed Christianity and turned it into a tool of empire itself as empire noticed that an ideology about empire was better suited to literally arguing one empire was superior to other empires and deserved to be the one to conquer the world. there's not a lot of difference between Christians and Democrats. Christians: we are all united together as under The King. Romans promptly turn the king into Caesar and argue Christianity promotes somewhat-racist empires that take other nations as slaves. Democrats: we are all united together by voting and a list of civil rights.

{{li|I=F2/A|tradition=|Q=618}}They can't arrest all of us -> one of those anarchist sayings that deeply bothers me because of how it's just not true. a country can bring down the law on as many people as it wants to. when it can't arrest everybody, that's when it brings out the tanks and helicopters and just starts shooting them. you should know this. it's already a pretty common talking point to say U.S. people don't revolt against the U.S. because of "the military". if China can bring out the army when there's not enough time for jury trials, and it's already common for cops to shoot petty criminals, what stops the United States from starting an open season on everybody who isn't committed to following all its laws? a bit of Cold War propaganda? do you really think the Great Terror happened for any other reason than that republics are based on laws and when people stop following laws and getting scared by cops they do anything to protect themselves??

this is one of the only models that can explain either separate wing of Liberal-republicanism and Stalin's Marxism and even a Trotskyist republic equally well: the model that republics begin with written laws and laws are the fundamental Ideas that create "nations of ideas". Tories don't follow center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. center-Liberals skirt around Tory laws, Tories call treason. Communists don't respect center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. anarchists or right-Liberals defy Soviet laws, Stalin's government calls treason. Stalin's government defies Trotskyists' desired body of laws, Trotskyists call treason. 
it's all about laws. laws are made by classes, and that's what distinguishes the fundamental character of a body of laws, but actually, all geopolitical conflicts and demographic conflicts deep inside countries start at whether separate groups of people are following each other's internal laws. it's all one big squabble about laws and what laws are inherently good or bad, while that will never have an objective answer because different areas of people hate other people's laws and don't want them. 
this is part of what makes critical-theory so frustrating. as of late it's been picking up talking points that the United States government is totally capable of granting North American tribes rights. but in order to get those "rights" they had to first send people to assimilate to White towns and consent to the overall body of United States laws and agree not to violate any of them, while some of those laws banned the tribal societies they would have been fighting for. it's a bit paradoxical. within the system that boasts all the time about giving people human rights (and also lies to everyone claiming the rights are from birth or 'god-given' despite the fact God doesn't give them to you in Cuba and Cuba requires an invasion to defeat The Regime that's apparently stronger than God himself)

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Dengism can defeat God (power scaling) / Deng Xiaoping states are stronger than God / If human rights are granted to people by God when they are born, but the United States needs to invade Cuba to ensure that people have God-given rights, then the Cuban government is strong enough to stop God himself; this is to imply that the United States is proportionally stronger than God by two [[E:feat (power scaling)|feats]] because the United States is stronger than the thing that defeated God but is not God / The U.S. can defeat God (sense)

I'm not sure Liberal-republicans are actually opposing this thing for the right reasons. sure, the people inside it sound like fairly bad people, and it doesn't sound like a good place to live. but I feel like this thing is being used as leverage to promote things people otherwise wouldn't support. to show that otherwise-bad things are "necessary". like, compounds full of racists are the new 9/11 — or the old one that probably existed decades before it happened. 
(it really doesn't help that the commentator identified the White supremacist compounds as "terrorist cells". that's a pretty heavy-handed rhetorical term when it comes to giving a particular national government great military power over any city within the entire rest of the world. like, anybody who says the word "terrorist" may as well already be king. Marxist parties are the only halfway exception. but it's still bad.) 
I feel like what's happening is something like, critical theory was one big scam by Liberal-republicanism to convince anarchists to turn against other forms of anarchism — granted, some of which were somewhat harmful, making the deal sound weirdly enticing — so Liberal-republicanism could then turn around and eradicate all anarchism and then be free to take over other countries and conquer the world. just like in those civilization games where you can just build one giant republican country and nuclear war never destroys the world first.

{{li|I=F2/LR|tradition=LR, HM|Q=618}}The purpose of Liberal-republicanism is to transition the world out of racism -> this seems to be the hypothesis advanced by critical theory. that republics actually exist in order to force ethnic groups to be friends. no matter what they've done to each other. this explains how Native American movements have been going mainstream: Liberal-republicanism is having trouble getting people to consent to it any more, so it needs to recruit minorities to advance its agenda of expanding itself over people and telling them what to do under the guise that it's making the world better for minorities. 
...this has to be false, doesn't it? the actual function of the United States has been dividing into two anarchisms that are mortal enemies. no matter how much critical theory says that forcing people to interact and integrate should change consciousness it doesn't seem to happen, and to some degree it only seems to make people more and more resentful and more inclined to kill each other. why it happens is less the presence of ethnic groups together in particular and more the presence of multiple populations that could be politically independent being ruled by "external" political factions that feel like foreign countries. like, it would really seem that Deng Xiaoping Thought has been way more successful than Liberal-republicanism, because having a single unified government actually seems to unify people rather than generating this worsening and worsening cycle of hatred. 
critical theory may be ideology generated directly out of Liberal-republicanism in the most insidious way possible. maybe this is what it's always done. maybe the real foundation of Liberal-republicanism is precisely holding up a set of laws, claiming they're inherently moral, and forcing everyone around, even people who aren't part of the country yet, to obey them or else. that is one of the only good explanations for why Liberal-republicanism has been so eager to back Israel. it doesn't even actually run on morality or care about morality. all it cares about is whether as many people as possible across the world are following an arbitrary set of laws. so the more people think Palestine "isn't following the law", {{em|as it is written}}, the easier it is to justify eliminating Palestine. 
you know. queer rights are a sham. they only exist because people have proved gay people are legal. on this weird metaphysical level where laws already exist before laws actually exist. and that's how laws come to be laws. but it isn't gay people that are oppressed by this Kantian interpretation of laws. it's Palestinians. believing that laws inherently exist and they only need to be approved just legitimizes the structure that makes this illusion possible to believe — global empire. this conception of things shouldn't be true, but when your empire is big enough to bully Cuba it's big enough to make almost anything come true.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=MX onto Ag|Q=618}}Everything starts out prohibited / Everything always begins prohibited / There is no difference between a republic where everything that is not prohibited is allowed and a republic where everything that is not allowed is prohibited; because all prohibitions emerge from the shape of small-scale social graphs and gaps between them, both models function the same way at that scale, and because government is always generated out of smaller scales of society, both logical models functionally model the exact same physical thing (meta-Marxism onto agorism) -> people usually think there is, but that's based on an error in reasoning thinking that legislators are the people who actually decide what's allowed. when you realize that ordinary people are always the ones who decide what's allowed and even oppressive republics have representatives based on what ordinary people want, you realize that actually, it might be the case that every single republic is based on everything not explicitly allowed being prohibited due to the fact that loci of non-aggression are always created on that basis, and the concept of there being a republic where you can do what you want as long as it isn't prohibited is entirely made up.

{{li|I=S2/MX/LR|Q=618}}Liberal-republicanism is not just a bunch of arbitrary utterances spat out of capitalism, and in fact is an entire intricate historical process of its own consisting of particular material objects in particular arrangements attempting to perform particular transitions from one arrangement to another arrangement, much like the internal operation of Trotskyism cannot be reduced to a bunch of spat-out ideas "from the wrong classes" by Stalin's Marxism, nor can the shape of Stalin's Marxism be reduced to a bunch of spat-out ideas "unrelated to Marxist movements" by Trotskyism; the United States is not special because it is the United States and isn't other countries, nor is Liberal-republicanism special because it is somehow "the only correct system", but instead of that, Liberal-republicanism is merely a specific kind of physical process distinguished from other physical processes which uses human individuals to build larger objects; the inner process within Liberal-republicanism fundamentally operates on the physical rules of a material description of blue anarchism, and not on any physical rules of a material description of Bolshevism / The progression of physical structures within Liberal-republicanism evolves in a fundamentally different way than the progression of physical structures inside Bolshevism (generic)

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Agorism is a segregation machine / Liberal-republicanism is a segregation machine / The progression of physical structures within Liberal-republicanism evolves in a fundamentally different way than the progression of physical structures inside Bolshevism; within Liberal-republicanism the structures that develop are loci of non-aggression inside which the particular list of rather specific things recognized to not be aggressive is strictly required to be tolerated by the entire locus but things not included on the list of non-aggressive things are often considered aggressive and worthy of being pushed out of society even if among things they would be compatible with they are not actually aggressive or dangerous and the locus of non-aggression simply fears them; 
the creation of loci of non-aggression is popularly believed to result in fusion of different loci which will locally take away chunk competition from society and replace it with 'chunk cooperation' or 'chunk summation'; 
in reality, the entire concept of loci of non-aggression is so unstable and arbitrary that it easily creates countably separate loci in perpetual competition that evolve into toxically-linked, hostile, or even murderous societies, and the precise transition that occurs is to split a country like the United States into two or more countable nationalities that are as similar as possible and yet as toxically incompatible as possible, which both still believe themselves to be compatible, and spawn further nationalities as people attempt to assemble into [[E:anarchism|a third locus of non-aggression]] to get away from the existing nationalities' toxic relationship; the system loathes inequality and attacks both billionaires and populational borders for breaking the illusion that society is singular and not made of plural pyramids, but as more and more equality is produced, more and more segregation is produced along the separations between loci, and gaps between loci channel deeper and produce more hatred, fear, and anti-social behavior, paradoxically making people nicer and nicer inside loci but completely unaware and incapable of understanding that other people are nice to each other because other people's trajectory of becoming nice was completely different from theirs; 
loci of non-aggression include: towns, families that have not experienced violent child abuse or the murder of a spouse, clusters of employees and owners that haven't committed horrible abuses against each other yet, clusters of tenants the landlord hasn't [[E:landlord rape incidents|literally committed crimes]] against, individual churches, segregated White towns without any gangs, Black towns without any racists, towns without any homeless camps, tiny satellite cities that produce nothing but are not "menaced" by big cities or taxes, individual local-states that come to accurately or falsely believe they've reduced themselves to one Liberal-republican party and no longer worry about the other, clusters of minority subpopulations, the US Bill of Rights, clusters of religions that believe they only have freedom of religion because they all exist together and none of them stopped existing, the overall US empire as it exists in a state of not having wars on its immediate borders, clusters of First World countries that are friendly toward each other but get together to oppress Third-World countries and even more so any Second-World countries that exist as "aggressives"

Trotsky wrecking Stalin's Marxism is immaterial if Stalin was trying to build a worse version of Marxism over a better version of Marxism. when Liberal-republicans do that, it's counter-revolutionary, so when Stalin does it, it's also counter-revolutionary, no need to even start arguing about The Bureaucracy yet. meta-Marxists, {{em|you}} go build Stalin's Marxism in another country so it doesn't wreck Trotskyism, not the other way around. and I would say, that's a good point actually. maybe Stalin {{em|did}} accidentally transplant a Marxism meant for much more undeveloped countries to the Soviet Union. and maybe it's technically true that Stalin's Marxism vulgarizes really quickly into Dengism if you aren't watching it closely. is Stalin actually a Maoist? are Stalin and Mao actually Dengists? sometimes I just don't know any more.

I think this was solidly falsified the moment humans invented generative AI. there's been a pretty solid consensus building that generative AI just is Evil and when it exists as an industry some industries are Evil, if that didn't already happen with the oil industry. what anarchists really really don't want to understand is that this discovery has horrifying implications for the philosophical foundations of anarchism. if people can be Good or Evil solely based on what their talents are, you can never guarantee that 'the totality of all non-aggressive activities not forbidden by The State' will ever get along rather than fighting each other and erupting into hierarchy or domination purely because people are determined for one decision to be made rather than another decision and to call that decision Good and the other decision Evil. that is the root of a lot of hierarchy if you ask me. but it's also unavoidable, because who's going to persuade anarchists to just tolerate all the stuff that they feel oppresses them? I think it's more realistic to admit that anarchism can contain domination and hierarchy and the claims it doesn't were lies, and just define anarchism around some other concept than Good and Bad — that includes "domination", "hierarchy", "decency", "respect", "disruption", "empathy", morality, ethics, "enchantment" (which turns into ethics in a couple seconds), "prejudices", and "White culture". the one completely nebulous thing they say that I am genuinely unsure whether they can or can't have is Freedom, because that has hundreds of definitions and I'm still not sure I understand what it is. so, yeah, {{em|maybe}} you can get away with defining anarchism as Freedom-ism and basing it on these long treatises of exactly how Freedom works descriptively with no prescriptive statements about it.

so, male culture and female culture are very similar on basic levels. but "queer culture" is something different from either of them. you can really start to identify it the moment you see a furry visual novel with a plot that's "weirdly straight" — where some of the characters are stereotypes, or where the writing is okay but all the characters have totally depressing problems that make you wonder why you're reading a book right now and not just talking to the people around you that are the human equivalent of Twitter feeds, here assuming you also don't like Twitter. when these kinds of things are made "correctly", they have a very different feel. you see people being... idealistic? living in their own world, but not really in an upsetting way. they stop thinking about the outside world where everybody isn't of the same finite cluster of LGBT+ people and the atmosphere becomes very... specific to the people who are there. I want to say "insular" but that's more negative than what I actually mean. 
I think part of what I am saying is that LGBT+ circles tend to generate this consciousness of being a teeny village of people just because they are inherently limited to having only tiny clusters of people available, and because of this they sometimes also start believing that they inherently constitute some kind of "anarchist tribe" that must transition to anarchism because it will never contain enough people to spawn a Liberal-republican nation-state. the way different subpopulations in the United States get so separated really seems to mess with people's heads and cause people to see themselves as entirely separate stateless "nation-states" with separate histories, right down to subconsciously imagining whole trajectories of transition only for their own cluster of people of a particular identity and based on the exact number of people that are in it at the moment. it's funny how identities will take the notion of forms of society comically literally to the point a Marxist would scold them for reading historical materialism too closely, but then they will not even know they're doing it and try to deny that forms of society and social transitions are a thing and just try to tell you everybody needs to transition to anarchism because gay people exist.

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Orange terrain is solid / Orange terrain is stable / Trotskyism is composed of fine-scale structures that are distinguished by their ability to stop parts of society from being overtaken and taken advantage of by The Bureaucracy; these structures may be referred to as "orange structures", although this only labels one specific function of the structures or process they contribute to and is not meant to be exclusive with the category of them being crimson structures / The dictatorship of the proletariat is an unbroken terrain of connected orange structures -> 
so apparently it's only when you look deep into what Trotskyists are claiming The Bureaucracy is that you finally start to understand what it is they're trying to create. they want one basic thing within any particular region, which is the dictatorship of the proletariat; the concept of international permanent revolution can actually be conceptualized as being emergent from this, because anything that keeps continuously defending outwardly red or orange countries from turning strawberry or blue and does appear in multiple nearby countries can link across the country regions so they can defend each other from encroaching bourgeois factions and form a Second World. this makes a lot more sense. the very first few times I read about Trotskyism I took it as this vaguely Idealist proclamation that things [[E:"I believe that everybody" statement|should have happened]] in other countries [[E:Monty Hall problem|that didn't happen]] and there "just should have" been international permanent revolution. but I now see it was more complicated than that. it's less that Trotskyists were upset Trotsky couldn't go to Germany and turn it orange and more that they were upset that the Third International seemingly refused to create a correct model of what happened in Germany, so they thought they had to tirelessly protect any region that really did have the potential to create a dictatorship of the proletariat, wherever it was, to keep The Bureaucracy from getting into it because the parties allied with Stalin were not safe from getting 'infiltrated' and slowly turning strawberry. the aim of trying to hold down a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat and prevent strawberry Marxisms from forming is respectable, given how many strange things strawberry Marxisms do on their best days ('corporations are productive forces', 'socialism is getting rid of poverty', party-approved listicles) and the few actually-awful things they do on their worst days (pre-emptively thinking rude people are reactionaries just because they're rude, battle between strawberry cops and Maoists buried inside resistances). historically speaking strawberry Marxisms are very similar to blue factions in that they slowly restore this dynamic of the most powerful people generating more power and keeping down the weakest people. I wouldn't blame anyone for acting like strawberry Marxisms simply aren't something to be messed with and are more something you want to stop at the root. as long as the people saying that are at least as Marxist as Stalin; anarchists really need to shut up and read enough stuff to learn how to do violet analysis before say anything on the topic of 'power multiplying'. if anarchists knew as much Marxism as the [[E:International Committee of the Fourth International|ICFI]] I would not be anywhere near as mad at them as I am and I would be more tolerant of proposals to create charcoal terrains that are supposed to serve the same function as orange terrains. I was in the beginning, but.... oh boy when anarchism only seems to generate more stupidity every day without ever getting better you quickly get tired of it

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Historically, Trotskyism has always been a "poly-" Marxism and there has never been a molecularized definition of Trotskyism (or any definition) which does not expect {{em|the process inside}} a particular country region to spill to the edge of the country effectively enough to end up creating connected blocs or federations of countries; the process of abolishing "owned country territories" and ruling classes along country borders and the process of defeating other versions of Marxism are not necessarily the direct causes of the "poly-" shape as much as consequences of it, and in fact, Trotskyism having a "poly-" shape is easily explained by processes inside each country region individually, namely a molecularized process of forming a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat which if successful joins multiple countries into a single potentially contiguous Second World region

{{li|I=S2/A|tradition=LR, ES, A|Q=618}}Mothers have the power to abolish entire nationalities / When national populations do not base their strategy for development on government welfare programs they inherently treat households as an exploitable resource by making stay-at-home mothers or fathers or other relatives generate and perfect workers that will be exploited by cities to build modernity, therefore if rural parents were to stand up against society they could weaken the power of the oppressive apparatus inside nation-states and all its justifications for either it or a nation-state existing; this is to imply that nation-states are not entitled to calling households citizens just because people do daily activities inside their borders, but also that households are entitled to money from other households in the pool of people a nation-state has assigned them to almost as an apology for having to be part of a nation-state {{YouTube|eotvnm_UDek}} -> this came from an analysis I saw on China. it's clearly from a very Liberal-republican framework, considering the weird fixation on everyone in a country being entitled to all social programs that exist even if the limits on social programs are actually meant to stop urban poverty and stuff like U.S. cities full of homeless camps that ultimately result after too many people move to cities too fast. but the more you look at this statement the weirder it gets. Liberal-republicans will most of the time act like a particular republic existing is only natural and dismantling it would be craziness but at other times they'll act like the entire existence of nationalities is a game to them and everyone can just stop being Chinese at any time if they get tired of it. there is this weird anarchist undercurrent to all Liberal-republicanism which you see vaguely come up in theorists like Rousseau. but when you try to point out that it's there, Liberal-republicanism will generally try to deny it and act like all the people that say taxes are arbitrary constructs or they're 'sovereign citizens' are foreign material and weren't created by glitches in Liberal-republican theory itself. the one time people get bold about it and it becomes the most socially acceptable is when it's applied to other countries than the one people are currently in. tell people that the United States is a made-up game and they get upset and try to argue at you for hours that civil rights court cases that will get repealed tomorrow are objective truth, tell people China is a made-up game that can be broken up or remade from scratch and they'll simply nod.

ethics itself is colonial in that without the creation of an empire you can't go on the continuing journey of people becoming 'more and more' ethical. you have to have that slump first where a huge atrocity is committed and then people progressively learn about it and apologize. a world without atrocities genuinely might not need morality or ethics at all. it might be a wholly amoral world. and the fact people are even talking about ethics may signal either that they're defending something awful, or that they aren't as good of people as they believe they are.

there's nothing wrong with people trying to do Marxist breakdowns of the elements or themes that make up popular media. not even if the popular work is superficial "slop". and you know why? the more popular something is the cheaper it gets to buy after a few years once people start donating it to thrift stores. if you manage to take a really popular work, however bad, and turn it into a teaching tool with a well known meaning, you've created really cheap propaganda that you don't need party organizers to distribute, that will keep getting spread around no matter how many party members get caught, and that will be harder to ban because the bourgeoisie created it and it wasn't created by a group of people easy to strategically label as "an invading foreign country". of all the things Western Marxists do, this is actually one of the smartest ones. because if Gramscians go into academia or movie studios and [[E:|take up job slots]], it doesn't make that big an impact on who can actually make decisions in industries or who can strike, but if you manage to change the use of an existing product then you've somewhat undone the ability of the corporations that made it to make decisions about what will be produced and what everyone is and isn't allowed to think before everybody else can.

these might include: Trotskyists getting expelled from the CPSU was psychologically traumatic or at least not predicted by their theoretical models, people continue to found Trotskyist parties because they identify with the psychological trauma of early Trotskyism and pick it up and advocate about it as a sort of generational trauma they feel is unresolved and waiting for justice, incompatibility between Trotskyist factions and mainstream Marxist-Leninist factions for various reasons created and still creates physical antagonisms between the parties leading them to want to form separate "countries" or civilizations (that last one is easily phrased in terms of dialectical materialism and has no need for a single 'inciting incident').

{{li|I=M3/LR|Q=618}}How will the Communist Party prevent {{book|Animal Farm}}? -> a question that's annoying but worth answering.

I think these people could become heroes. and here's why. {{book|Animal Farm}}, being an allegory, was meant to be read as a bit of a metaphor, but vegetarians with no knowledge of Communism took what they knew of the book and interpreted it literally. compared with a lot of methods used in the humanities (in particular in the arts; the situation could be a little better in fields like anthropology), taking things literally is inherently closer to Materialism and thus inherently closer to Marxism. if one were to deliberately analyze {{book|Animal Farm}} as if the animals were literally animals and not the Soviet Union, it would come across as the terribly inhumane and un-humanitarian narrative it really is. I mean, just think about it. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to kill a house cat a lot of people would find that concept disturbing. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to take self-determination away from a group of animals trying to save themselves from quite literally being chopped up and eaten if a population of people had power over them, that concept should be equally disturbing — if somebody wanted to cook and eat Russians just for being Russian almost everybody would consider that a severe human rights violation. and the ending for the Soviet Union was vastly worse than the ending of {{book|Animal Farm}}. the book was way too generous, when the reality was that things went back to the way they were before — if what had been going on before was Russians getting eaten, well, that would be happening again. if that were the universe we lived in you couldn't really blame Russians for going a little crazy and launching wars on neighboring countries; if that is the only way for them to have power and the United States not to have power which is "permitted", of course they're going to take the option where they don't get eaten, no matter how evil that option is. 
Animals kill others to survive. most animals in nature don't experience their survival being threatened constantly; in a normal situation the predator or rival patriarch or matriarch usually walks away at some point if they stand their ground long enough. but nation-states are very different because there's never anywhere to run off to permanently. if a conflict begins and the aggressor has no actual incentive to stop it's going to keep going until somebody starts killing people. it's just going to keep going until wars cull enough people (potentially millions and millions) that "the space to run away in" is at some semblance of being restored. because a society is just a lot of Animals standing together like they were one Animal, and societies threaten each other as wholes, but when a threat refuses to go away, Animals kill. anarchists cannot get away from this. they keep trying to assert that a world with too many people in it having wars "isn't necessary" and "there's no need to apply Malthusianism" but no matter what, their theories cannot [[E:existential materialism|explain what generates]] the actual observed behavior of Russians. the longer anarchists try to assert that indigenous ways of life 'were kinder on the earth' and 'were less violent', the longer real-world populations will attempt to kill millions and millions of people until the world literally has the maximum number of human individuals it did when human populations were mostly tribes. the actual material transition to a world where everyone is predisposed to believe secular animism is utterly horrifying.

{{li|I=S2/PT|Q=618}}It's rational for Russians to start wars and kill people if they will never be granted self-determination on the basis of a system where they try to help every Ukrainian and not start wars -> to correctly parse this proposition you have to understand that what is rational and what is ethical are not the same thing, contrary to what Kant says. 
this also doesn't mean that you can assert that 'getting rid of reason' will solve the problem, given that things that are 'rational' in this sense are rational precisely in the sense that they contain a specific [[E:causal logic (logical model of material causation)|sequence of causations]] and happen whether you want them to or not.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Native Americans are capable of genocide / Inasmuch as indigenous populations are human, they are hypothetically capable of coming up with and practicing [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideologies]] that lead to large populational-scale numbers of people dying because other particular groups of people decide that they should die -> we really need to wake people up to the fact that a genocide can consist of five billion people equally drawn from all ethnic groups as opposed to a billion people of one specific ethnic group or nationality, in terms of whether a particular person's ideology can be ""inherently dominating"" enough to inherently lead to killing ten million people. if anybody in the world gets to keep calling a famine in Ukraine a genocide, then there are scenarios where advocating secular animism could itself be advocating for genocide, because it has the potential to kill orders of magnitude more people than that. if everybody would stop saying that about Ukraine, I might consider dropping this.

{{li|I=S2/A|Q=618}}Stalin's government committed genocide in Ukraine {{em|because}} they killed people using [[E:hierarchy (anarchism)|hierarchy]], and whenever a form of hierarchy is used that leads to a lot of people dying, that form of hierarchy is an [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideology]], and it is morally wrong to allow people to construct that form of hierarchy to any extent and morally right to tear it apart at every scale possible however small as soon as possible -> the best argument I can think of that the famine in Ukraine {{em|was}} a genocide. no, it's {{em|not}} very good. but at least it's logical enough to start analyzing, unlike a lot of things anarchists say. 
this.... is how a lot of people conceptualize the French Revolution, I think. ...oh god, that explains a lot. it even kind of explains where [[E:Menshevism (1900s)|Menshevism]] came from. the logic behind Menshevism is basically one that inherently dominating ideas merely need to be stopped. all Idealism is somewhat similar and there is a big overlap in Idealism between anarchism, Menshevism, Yaroshenkoism, Deng Xiaoping Thought, and Western-Marxism. while mainstream Marxism-Leninism is nearly the only philosophy ever to state that people don't actually decide what ideas to believe, and that they are always simply handed ideas at the populational scale rather than a population actually having a mind of its own and actually being able to think. that's the sense in which BlackPantherism is quite respectable, to say that Black people among other ethnicities get ideas from their current conditions {{em|is}} a Materialist philosophy. one remaining question is whether Trotskyism falls into the trap of Idealist revolution or whether it genuinely is a Materialist revolution. I've always analyzed Trotskyism by taking individual Trotskyists or groups and modeling them through Materialist concepts of revolution, but my conclusions often don't sound much like their conclusions. they always talk like Stalin could have chosen not to do "Stalinism" so I don't know.

(generic; popular-culture expression of an Idealist campaign to slay [[E:inherently dominating ideology (anarchism)|dominating ideas]]) -> it took me a long time to put this concept into words, but yeah, I think the real problem with anarchism is that it is defining the concept of revolution based on Idealism. there seems to be a whole concept of an Idealist revolution where people think that if you can slay an "inherently dominating idea" that drives a population on a conceptual level, you can change one historical period into another historical period. now, to use some technical language, this is some unscientific SCP-report plotline {{censor|bullshit}}.

{{li|I=S1/A|tradition=|Q=618}}thoughtcrime (anarchism) -> the motif of anarchists banning ideas in order to prevent harmful forms of society from being created whether those forms of society are really actually harmful or not, and punishing people for spreading what are actually neutral ideas. 
you can't deny it, in actually asserting that all bad behavior starts at ideas and all change starts at prohibiting ideas, anarchism comes way closer to doing this than Communism.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}The act of handing money to another individual is in and of itself a hierarchy / The act of handing money to someone is in and of itself a [[E:spatial slot hierarchy (meta-Marxism)|spatial slot hierarchy]] because it is an act of deciding whether someone is good enough to do a task -> this claim would probably sound much stupider if it was coming out of an anarchist, but fortunately "hierarchy" isn't a big hang-up for me as much as a prosaic statement describing what kind of process is happening. 
that said, this is the thing you need to toss at anarchists who claim that hierarchy and expertise are different things. they really aren't. since the start of Liberal-republicanism expertise has generally been the source of almost all hierarchy. 
I feel like anarchists have shifted to saying "domination" largely so that when they mention "hierarchy" they don't sound as stupid. of course, it doesn't really help given that it's become so abstract that it's unclear what on earth it's even referring to.

{{li|I=S1/HAS/Fy|Q=618}}gender roles in fairy tales -> I just started thinking about this suddenly today because I was trying to think if the concepts of "brother" and "sister" have different connotations in folklore, and then I started thinking about how weirdly often all the more negative characters in fairy tales are female. the wicked stepmother, the witch, maybe the wicked step{{em|sisters}}. but the male characters are often more neutral. kings and princes and medieval artisan type people all just have kind of a neutral presence or sometimes positive. there are some exceptions like 'the fairy godmother' that will be a positive influence. 
I.... don't know what the scope of this entry is because I'm not an expert in the humanities. I think it covers European fairy tales and probably through Eastern Europe into the rest of Asia but I don't really know what the division between "a fairy tale" and "a folktale" is, to me they're kind of the same thing. some people consider "Aladdin" to be broadly in the scope of fairy tales because there is a magic artifact or magic servant character that isn't so different from the fairy godmother. but that extends the geographical range of fairy tales quite a bit. what's the difference between a fairy tale and just a legend that people don't necessarily think is true? I think there's a clear difference between a fairy tale and a "myth" in that myths are religious stories from an ancient time of local gods, and fairy tales are about 'smaller' magical things that sort of just hide themselves in tiny places and cause mischief — "fae" sums up the concept of where fairy tales get their fantastical elements pretty well, you're thinking of a character that is usually pretty small and missable but can also be very powerful, could be the fairy godmother, could be a leprechaun. but I'm pretty confused on the difference between a fairy tale, a folktale, and a legend, because legends can have dragons in them; they don't have to be "historical".

{{li|I=S1/ML|Q=618}}belief (utilization) / believing in (utilizing) / I believe in solving math problems with lambda calculus / I believe in pomodoro timers -> a definition of "belief" which is one of the very few sensible ways to define the phrase "believing in Marxism". 
I think it's arguable that this definition doesn't apply to ideologies like Christianity, or even to a lot of secular systems of ethics; ethics is a potentially wrong descriptive model of reality pretending to be a technique. but, on the bright side, this motif does provide a lot of context for why people like to claim Communism "doesn't work". you could easily say "pomodoro timers don't work!" but if you aren't versed in how people actually use them and the exact conditions where people claim they do work versus what specific kinds of conditions lead them to fail, then you wouldn't necessarily be making a true accusation. at the same time, if you {{em|did}} claim "Pomodoro timers work!" without knowing how to use them, you also might not be making a true claim. that's why the conflict between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism has been so hard to resolve. out of the very limited number of people in the world who knew how to use Marxism at the time, or that do now, not all of those people genuinely understand how it's currently being used. and it's all downhill from there, because as you get further away from them, ordinary people only know less and less. 
you really do learn a lot more about Marxism itself by examining Trotskyist attacks on Marxism than you do by examining a lot of attacks on Marxism inside Liberal-republicanism. and in that, I think they actually have a counter-intuitive effect on consciousness in the grand scheme of things where depending on the specific issue them making errors may be less harmful than them not being there. not {{em|better}} precisely, yet definitely {{em|less bad}}.

this sounds weirdly like I'm on the side of Buddhism over early capitalism. I'm not. I'm just very tired of capitalism acting like it's fully justified to keep power over everything and prevent anything else that would happen after it from forming just because it's better than ancient imperial monarchies. 
if Hegel had known what an "end of history" was, he would have believed that monarchy and feudal orders were the end of history. and now Fukuyama thinks he's not as wrong as Hegel when he does the same thing. honestly... right down to even that thing where you claim a bunch of abstract ideas led to a material system yet were the only possible train of conclusions. capitalist theorists and Kantians are almost exactly just the Hegel of capitalism.

also... funny story, when messing around with writing fiction and trying to throw Snowberg into a dystopia this had caused Valenoern to accidentally reinvent Trotskyism. but that takes a while to explain, and is a story for another day. to keep things short, they really did not know anything about the history of socialism or what Menshevism or Bolshevism were, they just sort of, created a character in the vein of "Emmanuel Goldstein" (that's just an example) from abstract concepts but didn't know that in the case of 1984 that was Trotsky, and so they reinvented Trotskyism. we've had a lot of fun with anticommunist fables and finding Trotsky in them since then.

I wouldn't disagree with this, although... I think there are a few interesting things to note about it. for one, the environment of online videos gives Trotskyists a bizarrely huge advantage because they can all post videos from different countries and make it look like Trotskyism is a lot more omnipresent in any particular country than it really is, as well as like it's a long-standing philosophical tradition (technically not false) which is as rich as mainstream Marxism-Leninism is. online videos make it weirdly easy to "astroturf" the appearance of movements happening more intensely or widely than they actually are.

I've apparently cracked the problem of four word idioms for English without trying to. 
also... I watched this one video that was purposefully making a constructed language where it was impossible for individual words to hold meaning and only an entire sentence could mean something, because the sentence was a hash of a bunch of numbered concepts lined up or something like that. that's almost a real thing with drastically abbreviated propositions — the four words together mean something and each word may mean something specifically next to one of the others but the individual words cease to mean anything by themselves.

this proposition is both wonderful and terrible. it's wonderful in that I actually now have a working model of exactly why it is that anarchisms are overall so persistent and refuse to give up: anarchisms are not actually against Hegelianism, but they see {{em|themselves}} as the entire Hegelian dialectic. the concept of Stalin trying to model society as local structures transitioning into other structures? {{em|anarchists believe in that}} but they believe that very process right there must take the form of entire Communities burning each other down to create better Communities. it's terrible in that anarchisms will never realize this. they will never realize what they actually are, and they will always act like "freedom" actually is something rather than just an absence and the (sometimes justified) hatred of things they don't like and want to fight.

{{li|I=S2/Fy/MX|Q=618}}Corporate [[E:art product (economics)|culture products]] are not objects communicated from a director to each audience member, but are in practice generally objects communicated from one fan to another fan; not only is the "artistic vision" of one particular specific individual a ridiculous thing to expect culture products to have, but at the end of the day all corporate culture products are ultimately just pre-made commercial fan fiction -> the way you have to fix the fan fiction problem is so specific. I've had several "solutions" to it that were probably wrong. but I think the crux of it lies here. the most important relationship in the pipeline of culture products is them being passed back and forth between fans. on occasion quite literally when someone hands someone else a Steam code. most of the time a little more figuratively, in the form of let's plays, theory videos, and the construction of alternate timelines. capitalism makes a huge deal out of the sanctity of the corporation for no good reason. ideally what you want is the paid experts completing their task of churning out culture products without a lot of ado about how great or awful the workers are personally for particular actions and decisions, instead they just complete the task quietly and go home, and then you want the fans to be allowed to pass back and forth whatever they want to regardless of whether it has been modified. and you don't want the central party-nation freaking out about the airtight seal between corporation and fans and the fans "wrecking society by doing too much"; that should not be a real offense. instead, if anything, you want the central party simply noticing where the seal is breaking and doing inquiries into whether different kinds of products should be produced. it {{em|might be the case}} hypothetically that the ideal scenario is the seal breaking totally and government not even having to bother re-connecting any of the points of production to formal corporations because there is simply enough stuff that nobody actually has to pay for culture products any more and generally considers them all to cost zero or literally a couple loose coins at a thrift store. 
the last thing you want to see happening (ever) is a "Chinese map fiasco" where people perceive government as a brutal predator that munches on human social activity purely to digest it and start scheming about how to stay out of its mouth because they know everything only gets worse after you fall in. you can never let that happen because the moment it happens the whole of socialist transition will disintegrate. the petty bourgeoisie regenerates in a heartbeat and it happens anywhere and everywhere. you're much more at its mercy than you ever could have realized.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning Malthusianism is genocide / Whenever you choose to say a statement in Malthusianism you have chosen to cause other people to be bigoted {{YouTube|gv4R-hix9wM}} -> no... that isn't how it works. as a framework, statements inside Malthusianism could hypothetically be true without all of it being true, so if those are already true and you say them, you didn't cause them to happen. this is like saying that if you predict a box to contain a dead cat when somebody filled it out of sight then you caused it to contain a dead cat, even if the other options are unrelated to cats, like the other option is the box is empty. overpopulation leading to bad outcomes can hypothetically be the case whether you want it to or not, but the important thing to realize is that that doesn't have any bearing on what the actual bad outcomes are. the bad outcomes might not be anything like the simplistic scenarios in Malthus' essays of overcrowding or 'eating babies'. the bad outcomes might look more like an increase in people randomly murdering each other because everyone increasingly feels like everyone else is threatening their existence and they need to protect their existence because 'all individual existences deserve to be respected' {{em|or else}}; despite what everybody wants nobody will yield to anybody else and so people get furious and kill in order to regain control. if everybody's doing that, you don't have control over it; you can't just say "believing in overpopulation is bad" or "if we don't things will get better" to fix it. because when people really truly believe things "Should" work a certain way, especially if that "Should" is an ethical prescription, they won't listen to anything you say until reality magically fixes itself to be that way. people are just going to get angrier and angrier every single day there are too many people and those people are disorganized and attempt with steadily increasing blind rage to punish all the disorganized people that have not been planned or controlled in any way for not being controlled in any way. there's really no "society", "social-ism", "community" -ing out of that situation, because other people's ethical imperatives are not a social construct — you can only obey whatever the {{censor|fuck}} other people tell you to do or risk them doing violence to you... or kill them, I suppose. ethics is an infamously unyielding form of philosophy. if there existed any form of belief where everybody spontaneously giving it up would actually solve all our problems, then everybody giving up the entire concept of ethics would be it. think about it: every right-Liberal who tries to say that accumulating wealth is good relies on property rights, which rely on ethics. every nazi that tries to say trans people are destroying the United States relies on a right to not have this "intrude" on their lives, which relies on ethics. if everyone really actually got rid of ethics, they wouldn't be able to defend bad things either, because the whole concept that individuals can make "correct choices" that are superior to other choices in creating a future they would be satisfied with would be gone. there would be vastly more incentive to question your previous decisions and deconstruct arbitrary beliefs if ethics did not exist at all. "post-structuralist philosophy"? "prejudices" and "biases" that will never make sense as analytical tools once you stop being the person that wrote the paper? how about we just get rid of ethics and accomplish the same thing way better with way fewer problems. 
I think the thing that bothered me the most about this video is.... the Overshoot Theory video I remember from a while back was also leaning on Native Americans. Overshoot man was like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, overpopulation!}} while these people are like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, no overpopulation!}}. it honestly feels like a non sequitur in both cases. I feel like overpopulation genuinely has nothing to do with whether North American tribes 'have lived more sustainably', positively or negatively. the cases where you'd see overpopulation come from a genuinely different kind of society that operates through entirely different material processes. which means you can't analogize a smaller society to it.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}I'm not here to educate you / It's not my job to educate you (statement that minority groups do not have to explain oppression) -> I don't think you can treat this statement as generally true. funny story, I've been picking up books on Native American history when I go to used book sales, and like, these claim to be educational, but you open them up, and the last one I was reading was treating the tribe in question as very mystical. it was trying to be positive and imply there was nothing wrong with people having a different culture but it overall still ended up presenting things like Rolling Thunder (he was the main topic of the book) had a fundamentally magical way of thinking, that he's almost some kind of wizard with magic occult powers in the way he thinks as opposed to his culture being something that can ever be "normal". I think the book was from 1976 if I remember right, not recently. 
so like, telling people to go educate themselves and implying they can't talk to actual people to learn what their problems are could be very harmful. I suspect that it's old books like these that a lot of anarchists are learning about other groups of people from and effectively where they're getting their anarchism. or that even if that's not literally the case, that you can still study that example to learn about the problems with the thing anarchists are actually doing. 
I think there is like.... a nuance that's totally lost on anarchists about the interaction of individuals or populations. if there's somebody that goes around talking like Rolling Thunder, you can't really just take what he says and present it to other people as his fundamental way of thinking. people in industrial populations are going to take it negatively. there might be one or two people who literally take it as 'backward' and say mean things, but that's not what you need to watch for, the most likely harm you need to keep an eye out for is people softly deciding that tribal populations can't understand modern science and that the way of thinking they have presented is part of their fundamental essence that 'blocks' them from absorbing the understandings people have in industrial society. this is racist, because it puts you into the same rhetorical position as the people who were recently arguing that Black South Africans 'didn't want the farmland taken by Afrikaners because of their culture' and {{em|therefore}} it was okay for European apartheid states to descend in and take whatever they want. I think there's a decent argument to be made that claiming someone like Rolling Thunder has a fundamentally different way of thinking 'than European science' is flat out supporting colonialism and is The Colonizer Attitude, because, just look at its results. 
this leaves open the rather broad question of how exactly you can merge tribal populations' ways of thinking with modern science and the findings of industrial societies. we know it's not optional to do that. we know it's necessary to do it to not essentialize people and treat indigenous people as stupid. we know that anarchists trying to present older and more mystical ways of thinking as 'the natural way of thinking' is not okay because it what it effectively does is allow White people to appropriate indigenous culture for their own benefit but still deny that culture to the actual indigenous people and hand all the power of people to determine themselves, to be able to talk about all topics intelligently as the adults in the room and make sophisticated decisions on various topics and involving several different philosophies, to Europeans. putting yourself in a position where other people will essentialize you to one particular level of ideological development is dangerous. I think it's the anarchists that need to be told this more than the tribal populations; they've been through a lot and I think to some extent they know this. anarchists, on the other hand... I feel like it's vaguely possible that some day in the future, people will talk about anarchists as inherently mystical people and weirdly racialize all anarchists {{em|exactly}} the way they've done with tribes in North or South America.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}History is the progression of generational subcultures -> this is slightly different from the claim that history is the progression of father to son to son or mother to daughter to son to daughter etc., because it is talking about the progression of whole layers of thousands and thousands of people born in the same 5-10 year period, and is not centering itself around individuals or psychoanalysis. it's not psychoanalysis, and instead, it's shifted its entire focus over to art history, the humanities, or the history of an industry.

{{li|I=S2/HAS/MX|Q=618}}History is the progression of successive semi-countable art markets -> I'm a little astounded to find such an Idealist claim and such a Materialist claim in the same podcast right next to each other a sentence apart, but I'll take it. wow. this one is so telling. it accidentally reveals so much about the connection between capitalist theory, the growth of society, and the outward manifestations seen in culture products. 
let's think about this. a 'console generation' forms in order to raise the prices of the products (largely by producing them new), while decreasing the cost of entry. if the discipline is new, it won't be overrun with expensive equipment, stacks and stacks of money poured into expertise, and the prestige of certain brands creating natural monopolies. after a while, all the corporations in a given market have made their money and the products are everywhere such that neither can new corporations make money nor can old ones earn any more. so then the market resets and an entirely new market is created. a bunch of hype goes around to present the new thing as really great although it was created in order for the new products made for it to not have to be very good at first. and apart from video games, this happens for the general concept of mediums and a lot of physical formats. 
honestly. I trust this more than Habermas' conception of history as some kind of progression of morality where what is progress could become entirely subjective; at least you can measure what a sideways progression from one set of events to another {{em|is}}. 
console wars + History is the progression of generational subcultures = this.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}Some Jews don't support Israel {{YouTube|_Q0TxCCuXyU}} -> U.S. people don't know anything but Idealism, the treatment of everything as abstract qualities. so they have to take on "Jews" and "anti-semitism" as abstract concepts. when they do that, it predisposes them to racist understandings of what various ethnic groups "are". so then they bring out the point of "but surely one of them doesn't support Israel" (anti-essentialism) to badly try to prove that Idealism isn't racist. 
it doesn't fix anything of course. Defining everything by what it's not leads you to defend anything and everything including the U.S. military.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Marxism before the year 2020 has been a theory of ideological segregation more than a theory of social progress -> why is it that walling off whole fortress states has been more effective than trying to spread filaments of radicals inside class societies?

{{li|I=S1/IV|Q=618}}dictatorship of the proletariat (Trotskyism) -> this is apparently its own specific thing. it seems it's typically defined in terms of how well the soviets can defend the overall country and any governing bodies against the re-emergence of capitalism.

{{li|I=S2/IV/MX|Q=618}}Soviet structures are vulnerable to being overcome by petty classes; soviet structures are not guaranteed to remain orange because depending on their class and preferred palette of social structures the individual national-employees inside them can add together to turn the structure charcoal, blue, or strawberry -> Trotskyism is weird. it has moments where it's totally unconvicing, and then it has moments where after you've been listening to the actually-okay theorists you have to go out of your way to find, it almost sounds like it got something right. this week, I saw that Trotskyists seemed to be describing the dictatorship of the proletariat as control by one big sea of soviets that are responsible for operating all the other organs of government — the thinking is that if all the soviets are made of proletarians and the soviets are orange, the soviets will keep all of the other structures from turning strawberry or any other unfavorable ideology. but then I thought about it for a bit, and I realized that this isn't an airtight strategy. in the real world, proletarians can level up into non-proletarians through small-scale processes, and it happens all the time whenever there aren't enough job slots or people simply don't fit into existing business territories' "culture". it's very easy for a country that's full of proletarians one moment to slowly morph into a country of skilled workers that all want their own businesses but will also complain when the reality of running them is much harder than they dreamed. 
this became apparent to me as soon as I saw Gramsci talking about a council for the "self-employed". that isn't a red or orange structure, that's a blue or strawberry structure. and those kinds of structures can undo a revolution. but it's also trivial for more of them to be produced through misapplied education or training. if the soviets have full control, it's easy for petty classes to rebel against all the orange soviets and start taking control of the whole country through whatever limited ability they have to assemble together groups of people that outcompete surrounding workers. 
dictatorship of the proletariat (Trotskyism) + proletarians promoting into Careerists = Soviet structures are vulnerable to being overcome by petty classes.

{{li|I=S1/AS/HM|Q=618}}moral evolution (critical theory) / Hegelian evolution of morality / historical development of societies as conceptualized around morality or ethics [https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/04/01/habe-a01.html] / procedural theory of rationality (Liberal-republican ethics; Habermas) -> the concept in Habermas of modeling either large or small changes in societies through changes in morality and the resulting changes in society. I'd hate this except that it gets really funny when you apply it to world civilization and actual changes between historical periods, revealing a lot about how imperialism works; in a way, it's so bad it's good. I guess that's about what you should expect to get when you start with Hegel. Liberal-republicanism is frustrating but Hegel really isn't so bad in the end.

{{li|I=S1/LR|Q=618}}deformed Liberal states / degenerated Liberal states -> the motif of Liberal-republican countries looking at other nation-states and regarding them as deformed versions of themselves that need to be punished until they form correctly. 
deformed Liberal states + moral evolution (Trotskyism) = deformed workers' states.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Morality itself tends to favor a world of "small business hell" simply because the assumptions that lead to people creating morality {{em|happen to lead there}} and all Idealist statements when put together spit out some kind of real-world consequence -> I find it frustrating that people will start from a set of arbitrary Ideals and then just deontologically assume that if those Ideals are good then whatever they produce must also be good. to me Habermas' theory of moral consciousness just doesn't make sense as a material theory of history because in one way all moral or ethical values are always arbitrary; there will always be a point where people assume that what they're currently doing is morally good or superior just because it's the thing a lot of people are doing and none of them want to stop doing it while any other group of people must be morally bad just for doing a different thing that threatens to replace that thing, even before they actually demand other people trade in what they're doing for the new thing.

{{li|I=S2/ML|Q=618}}Idealism produces material outcomes / All Idealist statements or combinations of Idealist statements lead to some kind of real-world consequence -> there are many ways to take this. one of the surface conclusions is that Idealism isn't as explanatory as Materialism. one of the most interesting conclusions is that you can "meta-game" Idealism and figure out the best Ideals to tell people in order to get them to create particular material results. this {{em|is}} essentially lying to people to manipulate their behavior, which if it were up to me I don't really like, but a lot of people believe that most human beings' understanding of the world will never go above that level, which might make it ethical under some theories of ethics.

{{li|I=S1/DFy/DX|Q=618}}Dengist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was Western-Marxist (strawberry Marxist, Gramscian, Dengist / Deng Xiaoping Thought) -> so, {{book|Attack on Titan}} has a dumb premise. it reads like a campfire horror story told by nazis in very little irony. but it {{em|is}} really funny to imagine some of the same central themes being used in an approximately Marxist work. like, instead of it being a nazi campfire story the titans are trying to scale a "Berlin wall", or penetrate China or North Korea to take them back for Liberal-republicanism, the titans are hiding out on Taiwan, the titans are sealing people into Cuba and not letting {{em|them}} leave. there obviously wouldn't be a focus on the concept of the big antagonist monsters being 'impure' or 'diseased', that element of it probably wouldn't exist. it would just be kaiju trying to break into the country and do something horrifying. it's gotta be a little over the top. it's gotta be about turning them all into kaiju for some nefarious but useful purpose, like, I dunno, the kaiju feed off negativity and if they all turn into kaiju and fight each other the whole population of kaiju becomes stronger. everyone is horrified about the invasion and it brings them all together.

{{li|I=S1/Fy/A|Q=618}}anarchist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was anarchist -> {{em|this}} is why I am having an increasingly hard time telling the difference between Deng Xiaoping Thought and anarchisms. like, once again, anarchism succeeds when you build a wall around it — probably metaphorically — and wait for the outside to tire itself out. I can't tell the difference between Gramscian Eren Yeager and anarchist Eren Yeager. 
oh god when I just go saying ideologies in a sentence of course my brain is going to shout "Trotskyist Eren Yeager". I don't know what that means. I don't know what that means at all. I dunno, like, the enemies are more like Reptilians or Yeerks and they're hiding out in the central government and nobody wants to believe it so the anti-alien squads are like trying to team up across regions? I tried.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Sociality distorts human beings' view of material reality -> anarchists are going to get so upset if you try to argue this at them. they'll try to argue that reality is whatever comes naturally to living things, and different states of natural for each living species must naturally want to go together, blah blah blah. [*] but they're all privileged. they haven't experienced a state of truly being fenced out of society by thousands and millions of people that all simultaneously agree they don't like you (probably without having met you or having much of any idea what they're doing). they especially haven't experienced it owing to the existence of anarchism, because anarchism already selected for people like them. but they should wise up to the fact that anarchism doesn't really pass the veil of ignorance with flying colors. it's quite easy to end up on the wrong side of "community" where you simply have nobody and nothing and also everyone assumes you must be a bad person just because you haven't claimed an exclusive spot in Community that supposedly you only have to be nice to people to get and follow morality though in reality it's much more difficult and complicated and trivial to simply be born wrong and fail to survive the ecological parameters of the 'community-icene'. I think that as a period of biological life the Anthropocene truly began at tribal society, not at industrial society. it was the ability to form entire ecosystems made of nothing but humans that changed things, but {{em|if anarchists are correct}} that the natural state of humans and human psychology is in tribes then all the current destruction of the environment ultimately came from the characteristics of tribes. tribal populations are not wholly innocent for all the horrors of global empire and ecological destruction if at the end of the day we're {{em|all}} still tribes and they're the only ones trying to disclaim that there are bad things about that. really, as crazy as it sounds, they might be accidentally benefiting from a corrupt system that has killed great numbers of people. of course, if humans don't have a seemingly eternal resting state of being in tribes that we have no choice but to return to which in turn implies we are currently tribes in denial and will still be tribes for the next hundred thousand years, then tribal populations carry no blame for what industrial societies have done. 
(* why didn't they say that about workers' states and the healthy state of the Soviet Union versus the very disordered states that occurred at every moment after tearing it apart? they have even less excuse than Trotskyists. Trotskyists wilfully wanting to overwrite another Marxism with their own Marxism is at least logical even if it's terrible.)

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}"Indigenous people" marks a statement as racist / Saying "indigenous people" marks a sentence as containing racial stereotypes {{YouTube|fwecpbB1DPs}}
{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning ethnic groups is racist / Mentioning an ethnic group without mentioning a specific individual marks a sentence as containing potentially-harmful racial stereotypes -> this is what you have to believe for the above statement to be true. like, if "indigenous people" marks a racial stereotype, then saying a more specific group of people like "Inuit" should equally mark a racial stereotype — how does the person you're talking to {{em|know}} that you're giving correct information about all Inuit people and not just saying something false? but if this is true, you couldn't go to Congress and say "Black people" or "Mexican immigrants" for any legitimate purpose without mentioning individuals that supposedly make the example truer. does it actually make statements more accurate to include specific individuals? I feel like it adds nothing but also subtracts nothing. 
this is a really weird criterion for judging whether statements are accurate. I know where it comes from, it comes from people trying to judge everything through positivism and claim that Lived Experiences are a pathway to truth while a lack of Lived Experiences is a pathway to falsity. it's still really weird. it doesn't seem to accomplish the thing it sets out to accomplish at all, and just seems to make all statements said about any group of people more worthy of doubting. "White people have the colonizer attitude"? maybe not!! Ben was doing that, but did you ask Carla?? "Black people experience structural racism"? maybe not!! you didn't mention an individual so in theory you might be racist for even saying that. 
Mentioning ethnic groups is racist + Anti-essentialism is a pathway to truth = Pointing out racism is racist.

{{li|I=S2/ES/ML|Q=618}}Referring to Communists without mentioning a specific individual is unacceptably prejudiced / If mentioning ethnic groups without mentioning a specific individual is racist, which is to imply that talking about groups of people in the abstract rather than as a particular countable number of concrete objects is racist, then mentioning "Communists" or "Cubans" or "people who support Stalin" without naming a specific individual for evaluation is equally prejudiced; every time somebody has said "tankies" or "totalitarians" or "Stalinist(s)" outside a particular context has been an unacceptably prejudiced statement -> this is another loophole in this. god I love it when really bad propositions break open so bad they wrap around to supporting Communism

there's no such thing as "man being born free". man is always part of something, such as family units, tribes, or kingdoms. it has to be this way, or humans wouldn't even be able to reproduce! total freedom would mean that people couldn't even find other people. there would be no babies. but when humans are able to interact and cooperate, it also creates competition, which most obviously results in judges and laws and ultimately results in states. states come from the existence of countable populations, or the existence of two separate conflicting populations. there has to be an active separation from the units people are already part of to even create the state of "man born free". like Thoreau actively going away to his own cabin away from where he started. that movement from A to B is very important and has to be taken into account in the theory. people who think like this seem to think humans are born at the age of 30 out of an egg and they're never babies and they never have babies.

I feel like even when Liberal-republicanism is working reasonably well it asks for this impossible perfect situation of every town being a perfect balance of all parties that currently exist, when that just isn't how towns work; you actually have to redraw the districts every election so they contain half one party and half another, or there isn't even actually an election being had. there's also the problem of people moving around for work and throwing off the balance of districts, which is almost inevitably going to happen faster than new maps happen. it's very hard to separate Liberal-republican elections from people who are demographically and anthropologically part of political parties fighting over the right to control all the representatives for a given county or local-state. that's kind of just what Liberal-republicanism {{em|is}}. in concept the only "boring" way to stop it is to stop treating parties as a subject of elections and just say, yeah, no, parties are regional states now containing several US states or containing several cities and you vote for who leads your party but the group of attached capitalists that wins rules the country. if you did it that specific way people would get so mad, but on the other hand it's about how every blue anarchist already sees things, so they'd be mad because the system was honest instead of lying to people.

{{li|I=S1/DX|tradition=PT, MZ, DX, LR|Q=618|Q2=618}}congress of estates (motif) -> this is a pattern that seems to come over and over in all archaic republics. back in traditional monarchies the congress of estates would be very blatant and exist fairly literally with three estates in it. then when strawberry Marxisms were created, they sort of left some of the features of monarchy in place that Liberal-republicanism would have broken up, and notably invented the congress of estates all over again with New Democracy. New Democracy started out with allowing the nationalist faction and capitalists to exist, and when it ceased to exist "proper" it morphed into having the CPC, the capitalists, and a layer of mediators between the top layer of theorists and capitalists (which is rather blue; I made that sound like capitalist-theorists for a reason) such as the ancient petition system. China is somewhat ruthless on public officials as a group, which is probably how it's stayed stable, but it does very little to them just for being capitalists. in North America, you see a similar thing pop up with the National Labor Relations Board and the layer of labor lawyers. in terms of classes, you may as well be taking that sea of labor lawyers and sending them to the US Congress. 
lawyers are constantly trying to keep things exactly as they are, prosecuting anything that appears to threaten businesses, and sometimes representing unions and trying to get businesses regulated. but in a way, it's always the lawyers that win, because it's always the lawyers that get to decide what the outcomes of all conflicts are and what is going to be recorded in federal and regional law. lawyers think they've tamed all human conflicts, saying, here is gender law and here is race law and here is labor law. but all the conflicts between lawyers where they think they've won or lost are illusory, because all of it is a proxy war that is only carried out by imagined facsimilies of real things. people say that Communism "only works on paper", but Liberal republics somewhat literally live all their history {{em|on paper}} inside the arguments of appointed lawyers. it's very easy for all these arguments to simply be working off hypothetical models of how groups of people interact with each other that are just plain wrong, and when those models and amendments are wrong, laws and amendments will fail to function or be repealed. critical race theory is like 20% of the way to understanding how bad the problem is. yes, laws about race are often working off wrong models, but so is every other law. quite honestly, to get laws that work you need to abolish the entire concept of Idealist law and make laws which are more following the principles of existential materialism; whenever a law doesn't reflect how people really behave, it has to be replaced with one that has a real understanding of social dynamics and how to control them. I think that's the best way to create transitional laws within a workers' state that is attempting to hold its structure long enough to gradually make laws and government irrelevant. all Idealist laws will eventually be pushed back on by material reality, while a truly Materialist law would be followed so well it would hardly ever have to be enforced.

Hinduism basically has a general concept of what education is baked into it. it tries to compensate for the fact that all people have different levels of education and study different sets of experiences or observations within different populations or regions and they could all understand some things correctly but the people at greater levels of education may be closer to understanding the whole picture. and the concept is tailored to the religion or cluster of religions and the notion that it is possible to get greater knowledge of "spiritual truths", but you know, taking it away from that context and looking at it on its own, it's a great concept. I honestly think it's pretty good. 
I wish people wouldn't use concepts like this to put subjective experience over the material world and potential alternatives like seeing overall populations as physical objects, but, what can you do. in some ways religion "absorbs" or "co-opts" the concept of education and awareness to spread its own message, like with the notion of Māyā or Christ as the true reality, but in other ways, religion just accidentally describes the general process of education and I can't really be against that.

they said the phrase "dropped anywhere in the world"... so are they Trotskyists? oh yeah Alan Woods is on there, this is the IMT. 
so, a workers' state has to be created some time before 2106-2124, we won't say it has to survive the whole time because that wasn't promised, but we will say it has to somehow help stop Israel because that is on the program and is one of the most common issues I've seen the North American "Lefts" talk about. and if this organization splits into one that succeeded, we'll say it succeeded. we have a very clear claim here. 
they really buried Alan Woods and the Fourth International into the deeper pages. so... in my mind, that means the workers' state should consist of at least two countries but has no particular minimum number. if the US, Canada, and Mexico all join a single Fourth International with every country in South America and Europe and Australia that's a smashing success, but it's not required for this claim.

finally, I have a definition of the proletariat specific to violet Marxism emerging from violet Marxism's general understanding of classes. the proletariat exists as thousands or millions of plural proletariats mainly because the petty bourgeoisie is busy dividing up proletarians and constantly fighting itself. the petty bourgeoisie is one of the most annoying classes in history because it's genuinely capable of having a class rule where within the smallest places it rules it doesn't actually conflate its class territories with one specific person, and it can genuinely rule a territory as a cooperating team of people. this messes up {{em|everyone}}. every single prior historical event has involved specific individuals being conflated with class territories, so when petty bourgeois islands show up, they get super confused and start to think class society has been abolished and they must be the final class, but they're not, because the fact their island is divided from another island and makes decisions separate from others is a class! 
it sounds strange at first but once you've had to live with a world full of newsfeeds where a bunch of independent producers are constantly competing against each other to all make decisions you can't affect and it's easier to come into contact with {{em|them}} than any actual friends or social connections, you start to understand it. {{em|that}} has to be prevented at all costs. people will have to get used to the purpose of labor being to make structures that slot into larger structures and which are specifically to serve everyone {{em|but}} them as opposed to them first, or else human existence will be a bunch of petty squabbles forever. and I am so done with that.

Juche-socialism is — shocker — a republic. it understands the concept that a republic is an anarchy created by either snapping off the king or bringing together a [[E:conglomerate anarchy|stationary combination of heterogeneous elements]], although the mere concept of that makes both blue and charcoal anarchists mad. all Liberal-republicans and anarchists seem to want to believe Liberal-republicanism or anarchism are special and Dengism could not possibly be equally as good as Liberal-republicanism. and they're just plain wrong. Dengism is almost exactly as good as Liberal-republicanism is, and that absolutely blows a gaping hole in everything they say. it exposes both Liberal-republicanism {{em|and}} blue anarchism as petty-bourgeois nonsense which is all about chauvinism to a little isolated island of people just because it's yours. which, yeah, is one of the most ironic things ever in context — an ideology which is explicitly about center-wing nationalism and national unity has exposed United States chauvinism. this is especially damning for charcoal anarchism because it wants to act like it's above everything and the only way to reach the final stage of world civilization, the only way to bridge all the world's gaps and unite everybody, but like, it can't unite the displaced Native Americans who now love anarchism and North Koreans, it can't unite Black people obsessed with anarchism and North Koreans. so basically all anarchism in the United States is petty-bourgeois nonsense. the easy litmus test for what is and isn't that is whether a particular ideology can unite North Koreans with United States people on their own terms without making any of the decisions outside North Korea. an ideology that can do that is viable, and an ideology that cannot do that is garbage.

one of the evident weaknesses of vector models is they can only describe one kind of relationship between tokens rather than actual different kinds of relationships, such as something being understood as a synonym or an antonym or forming from other things joined together instead of breaking apart into other things. this is where the model of vectors or coordinates actually having different numbered Properties or relations that connect them to things really could have shined. you can take away linguistic ambiguity where a word means two different things for different reasons, or even uses of a word that historically were related but aren't any more, and you might be able to decrease the complexity of the model by not using the same coordinate for so many things and needing all those connections on a given coordinate. this isn't what the brain does but there are some times you probably don't want your model to be like the human brain; the same processes that make it easy to encode information efficiently make it easy to bake prejudice into everything and make it impossible to separate prejudice from a bunch of things that are okay.

{{li|I=S2/MX/A|tradition=|Q=618}}Liberal democracy encourages burglary -> some number of people are easily talked out of stealing from houses if you only stop them and talk to them. but when people are taught that individual will is sovereign or people have the right to not be convinced to think anything like you do, which is almost always the way people act in the United States, everyone will become distrustful about asking for anything nicely, and it logically follows that it's harder to talk burglars into peacefully leaving your house.

(there might also be some worrying conclusions for Palestinians after all the claims that they've done morally wrong things to Israel.) 
gosh this just really makes me wonder what it would be like if Animal Farm was set in Australia and also for no particular reason the characters were furries. it would make it so much more disturbing that people apparently keep them as slaves. but it would make it way easier to tell the story of Cuba where people constantly deny that the argument is over slave plantations and the Confederacy realistically extended over two whole country regions. we've had this whole argument about trying to delete slavery from history books and yet there's one part of it the Confederacy solidly won that nobody even talks about.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Friendship and freedom are fundamentally different things — freedom is typically conceptualized as the capacity to move to a different space within an overall phase space of choices, but this is not the same thing as friendship because friendship is the maintenance of one particular option despite it not being the "optimal" choice, making friendship and freedom contradictory processes assuming an agorist definition of what freedom is -> it's that old problem of "is Twilight Sparkle free if she is forever shaped by her connection with Rainbow Dash". I think the correct answer is that friendship or a strong relationship is its own thing and it is not blue. I don't know what color friendship actually is, I couldn't begin to guess that right now. but I really suspect that the way agorism has colonized social relationships and turned them into markets is an illusion.

{{li|I=F2/W|tradition=|Q=618}}Human demographics are themselves the proletariat; people are the proletariat because they're Black or lesbian while not being White -> no. that's an improperly classless definition of what classes are. (I do think there are [[E:molecularization (meta-Marxism)|proper classless definitions of classes]], but they aren't this.) a human demographic is a somewhat arbitrary group of people {{em|containing classes}}. so you're dangerously close to creating an eclectic Marxism the moment you say this. 
the worst thing is that it's not just Marcuse that says this, I've seen "real" Marxists say this. 
I think one possible cause of this is bourgeois models of reality penetrating deep through society, and in particular the agorist model of society penetrating deep down to the smallest layers, because small capitalist ideology is actually the most popular capitalist ideology now. Animal Farm 2026 literally promoted small businesses in a newspaper! and they thought this would be inspiring as opposed to hilarious in its transparency. yeah, I think there is a pervasive model that on the larger scale societies consist of capitalism but on the smaller scale societies consist of what is claimed to be "community" but what is in fact agorism, and people silently believe that ethnic groups themselves are made of market mechanisms and the breaking down of racist barriers occurs because market mechanisms break them down. this model seems like it would be amenable to Trotskyism because it contains the notion of capitalism inevitably shattering nation-states but it is actually a terrible trap where people will cling onto agorism and then act like it's the very definition of humanity itself and Trotskyists can't come in. honestly. I think agorism needs to be smashed before the world can make any progress. it's inside "Libertarianism". it's the basis of social platforms and all the complaints they bring out about "algorithms". it created Marcuseanism and got everybody mad about civil rights because they began to create a weird loop where talking about progress prevented progress. it might as well be the root of all evil. it's bizarre how often it comes up and

{{li|I=F2/HM/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism / Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism because it presents a picture of the entire industrial world unifying onto a shared body of laws (a Trotskyist socioeconomy and corresponding party structure; a Trotskyist "constitution" enshrining socialist transition), which is conceptually similar to the entire industrial world unifying onto the same shared body of moral values -> I love this statement because logically it should be true. logically speaking there should be no errors here. but historically it absolutely has not been true. nobody who believes in the moral vanguard model has been on board with realizing Trotskyism in their own country, they're always anticommunists, so historically they've been the most likely to tolerate Deng Xiaoping states. there was approximately a decade where you could get them to tolerate Stalin's Marxism specifically because it had a border around it and they would never have to accept it for the rest of time. 
it's quite a contradiction that Habermasians hate Communism, but like, you can get them to be pro- Soviet Union and pro-Stalin on a segregationist line of argument. they don't want to be changed. it's less important for them to expand their own morals and laws over other countries than it is that fundamentally you can't force {{em|them}} to change. so they claim to be about social change but fundamentally what they want is for things to stay the same as long as they subjectively like those things. it's hilariously accurate in unintended ways when agorist types try to frame Freedom as "subjectivity" — oh, really, so you're free when the evaluation of what is good or bad for society is completely subjective? it seems like when they speak of moral truth values they're just using formal logic to launder their preconceptions. how do we know that a purported crime "is" anything? you can say that "colonialism" is bad and that "anti-capitalists are against colonialism" but if you can't define what colonialism is and where it comes from (trust me, there is not a single answer, various different "The Lefts" are still arguing about that) then what does that statement even mean, and how does it have the power to stop anyone from doing anything? what does defining a moral truth value and affixing it to an event that happened actually get you in that context?

I don't like ethics. I'm done with it.

I feel like "stating an unverifiable fact" and "copying sentences out of a book" should be completely separate things. this is, unfortunately, one of the only good things large language models have done: they've been slowly forcing people to get better models of what plagiarism is because when they aren't human and can't be held accountable for anything and thus [[E:Reality is tyrannical|inherently have more rights than humans will ever have]], people are forced to fall back to guides on "how to identify AI" and actually explain materially why plagiarism creates less useful text rather than giving a moral argument about how a machine they cannot control "should have" done things differently. it would be wonderful to have something other than "AI" doing that instead but so far nothing has really succeeded at it.

I think in some ways Free Software types and this swath of "generic libertarians" is really wired into the concept of business territories and owners and trying to break down the business territories of the "big" or "corporatist" owners. it's comical how although the reasons for it are wrong the conclusions are very close to correct and I would unironically support using a surprisingly large slice of the generic-libertarian content that exists to teach Marxism. it's funny how nothing but the antagonism between all business territories eventually begins to undo capitalism if you give it long enough, while no amount of anarchist ideology ever seems to make much of a difference.

I have to wonder. what would happen if Kropotkinism actually kicked off? wouldn't you just have a population of people that earns tiny amounts, has huge expenses, and basically lives just like gig workers? what if the reason anarchism hasn't been more successful is Amazon beat anarchists to creating 'easy work' of the kind anarchists want but just not in the conditions they want? [https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/02/19/jxer-f19.html] it seems to me like anarchism moves really slow and capitalism moves fast, owning entire [[E:agora (meta-Marxism)|market-boxes]] and communities while anarchists are only talking about those things and before they can meaningfully create them.

{{li|I=S2/LLM/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Community is a hyperstructure -> the claim that "community", mostly as a materialist version of the anarchist model of what "communities" are, is a system that encourages itself to expand further through parts of the system contributing to the overall system. 
I think the description is really apt because you see this perfect 'blockchain quality' where community looks like a shiny wonderful thing you could only want more and more of, but when you get any particular instance of community, such as a newsfeed platform like YouTube or Twitter, the more people add to it the worse it seems to get and the more it turns into this vector for individual capitalists to own an entire "agora" and exploit the whole concept of an economy existing and make money off that, and the more it feels like community itself was a scam from the start. 
Community is a hyperstructure + Hyperstructures are usually harmful = Community is a cancer.

honestly? if getting people to comprehend "hyperstructures" could get rid of blockchains themselves then I'd be all for it 
I feel like this concept is almost more of a cautionary tale than a desirable thing to have though. one of their examples is the general concept of money because of course they have to explain how bitcoin is similar to money. but like, the expansion of money through creating more products and the central government giving loans to corporations to speed up the process isn't necessarily a good thing, it often leads to the destruction of the environment as it's consumed to create materials and factories, or the destruction of culture as products obsolete other products just to chase money and get more money added. this is so bad that when they present language as the second example I'm like.... okay, is language secretly a bad thing that is destroying the world and I just didn't know it was? I have to say though, the advent of large language models really vindicates the concept of hyperstructures, if in a bad way. the more AI that people create the more different AIs can train on each other to the extent they can generate any meaningful inferences or conversation data that human testers approve, and then there will be more AI. so, yeah. the concept of hyperstructures was very successful. it was successful at describing something, but it seems like basically everything it describes is an existential threat to humanity, including The Economy, capitalism, blockchain, AI, and possibly language (??). 
this might be one of the clearest pieces of evidence that anarchism is inherently dangerous because it doesn't actually build into itself the capability to model societies spending a while building something and then leveling off in a neat S-curve because they moved on to entirely different things without redoing the same things over and over again such as repeatedly reinventing game consoles or phones. (a thing Marxism could do with some effort because it inherently understands the concept of historical periods and shifts from one period to another.) despite all the surface rhetoric about "infinite growth" recently it only really understands infinite growth because of its core values of always making everything about "community" and "inclusivity" and never saying no to anybody. so naturally a system of modeling growth itself is one of the first things to pop out of it, which claims to have a limit but in practice when it hits the limit just divides in two and continues to make more and more.

I'd argue that at least as soon as New Testament Christianity appeared the whole thing was really about pushing the concept that seemed nonsensical at that time of getting rid of all rulers and creating a society based only in social bonds connecting people into a society ("love", "brotherhood", "neighbors"), and Christians had to dress up that concept inside the concept of a worldwide empire just to get anybody to believe it when otherwise it would have seemed unbelievable. 
I'd also argue that by capitulating to the class imagery of their time Christians doomed Christianity and turned it into a tool of empire itself as empire noticed that an ideology about empire was better suited to literally arguing one empire was superior to other empires and deserved to be the one to conquer the world. there's not a lot of difference between Christians and Democrats. Christians: we are all united together as under The King. Romans promptly turn the king into Caesar and argue Christianity promotes somewhat-racist empires that take other nations as slaves. Democrats: we are all united together by voting and a list of civil rights.

this is one of the only models that can explain either separate wing of Liberal-republicanism and Stalin's Marxism and even a Trotskyist republic equally well: the model that republics begin with written laws and laws are the fundamental Ideas that create "nations of ideas".

Communists don't respect center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. anarchists or right-Liberals defy Soviet laws, Stalin's government calls treason. Stalin's government defies Trotskyists' desired body of laws, Trotskyists call treason. 
it's all about laws. laws are made by classes, and that's what distinguishes the fundamental character of a body of laws, but actually, all geopolitical conflicts and demographic conflicts deep inside countries start at whether separate groups of people are following each other's internal laws. it's all one big squabble about laws and what laws are inherently good or bad, while that will never have an objective answer because different areas of people hate other people's laws and don't want them. 
this is part of what makes critical-theory so frustrating. as of late it's been picking up talking points that the United States government is totally capable of granting North American tribes rights. but in order to get those "rights" they had to first send people to assimilate to White towns and consent to the overall body of United States laws and agree not to violate any of them, while some of those laws banned the tribal societies they would have been fighting for. it's a bit paradoxical. within the system that boasts all the time about giving people human rights (and also lies to everyone claiming the rights are from birth or 'god-given' despite the fact God doesn't give them to you in Cuba and Cuba requires an invasion to defeat The Regime that's apparently stronger than God himself)

I'm not sure Liberal-republicans are actually opposing this thing for the right reasons. sure, the people inside it sound like fairly bad people, and it doesn't sound like a good place to live. but I feel like this thing is being used as leverage to promote things people otherwise wouldn't support. to show that otherwise-bad things are "necessary". like, compounds full of racists are the new 9/11 — or the old one that probably existed decades before it happened. 
(it really doesn't help that the commentator identified the White supremacist compounds as "terrorist cells". that's a pretty heavy-handed rhetorical term when it comes to giving a particular national government great military power over any city within the entire rest of the world. like, anybody who says the word "terrorist" may as well already be king. Marxist parties are the only halfway exception. but it's still bad.) 
I feel like what's happening is something like, critical theory was one big scam by Liberal-republicanism to convince anarchists to turn against other forms of anarchism — granted, some of which were somewhat harmful, making the deal sound weirdly enticing — so Liberal-republicanism could then turn around and eradicate all anarchism and then be free to take over other countries and conquer the world. just like in those civilization games where you can just build one giant republican country and nuclear war never destroys the world first.

{{li|I=F2/LR|tradition=LR, HM|Q=618}}The purpose of Liberal-republicanism is to transition the world out of racism -> this seems to be the hypothesis advanced by critical theory. that republics actually exist in order to force ethnic groups to be friends. no matter what they've done to each other. this explains how Native American movements have been going mainstream: Liberal-republicanism is having trouble getting people to consent to it any more, so it needs to recruit minorities to advance its agenda of expanding itself over people and telling them what to do under the guise that it's making the world better for minorities. 
...this has to be false, doesn't it? the actual function of the United States has been dividing into two anarchisms that are mortal enemies. no matter how much critical theory says that forcing people to interact and integrate should change consciousness it doesn't seem to happen, and to some degree it only seems to make people more and more resentful and more inclined to kill each other. why it happens is less the presence of ethnic groups together in particular and more the presence of multiple populations that could be politically independent being ruled by "external" political factions that feel like foreign countries. like, it would really seem that Deng Xiaoping Thought has been way more successful than Liberal-republicanism, because having a single unified government actually seems to unify people rather than generating this worsening and worsening cycle of hatred. 
critical theory may be ideology generated directly out of Liberal-republicanism in the most insidious way possible. maybe this is what it's always done. maybe the real foundation of Liberal-republicanism is precisely holding up a set of laws, claiming they're inherently moral, and forcing everyone around, even people who aren't part of the country yet, to obey them or else. that is one of the only good explanations for why Liberal-republicanism has been so eager to back Israel. it doesn't even actually run on morality or care about morality. all it cares about is whether as many people as possible across the world are following an arbitrary set of laws. so the more people think Palestine "isn't following the law", {{em|as it is written}}, the easier it is to justify eliminating Palestine. 
you know. queer rights are a sham. they only exist because people have proved gay people are legal. on this weird metaphysical level where laws already exist before laws actually exist. and that's how laws come to be laws. but it isn't gay people that are oppressed by this Kantian interpretation of laws. it's Palestinians. believing that laws inherently exist and they only need to be approved just legitimizes the structure that makes this illusion possible to believe — global empire. this conception of things shouldn't be true, but when your empire is big enough to bully Cuba it's big enough to make almost anything come true.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Agorism is a segregation machine / Liberal-republicanism is a segregation machine / The progression of physical structures within Liberal-republicanism evolves in a fundamentally different way than the progression of physical structures inside Bolshevism; within Liberal-republicanism the structures that develop are loci of non-aggression inside which the particular list of rather specific things recognized to not be aggressive is strictly required to be tolerated by the entire locus but things not included on the list of non-aggressive things are often considered aggressive and worthy of being pushed out of society even if among things they would be compatible with they are not actually aggressive or dangerous and the locus of non-aggression simply fears them; 
the creation of loci of non-aggression is popularly believed to result in fusion of different loci which will locally take away chunk competition from society and replace it with 'chunk cooperation' or 'chunk summation'; 
in reality, the entire concept of loci of non-aggression is so unstable and arbitrary that it easily creates countably separate loci in perpetual competition that evolve into toxically-linked, hostile, or even murderous societies, and the precise transition that occurs is to split a country like the United States into two or more countable nationalities that are as similar as possible and yet as toxically incompatible as possible, which both still believe themselves to be compatible, and spawn further nationalities as people attempt to assemble into [[E:anarchism|a third locus of non-aggression]] to get away from the existing nationalities' toxic relationship; the system loathes inequality and attacks both billionaires and populational borders for breaking the illusion that society is singular and not made of plural pyramids, but as more and more equality is produced, more and more segregation is produced along the separations between loci, and gaps between loci channel deeper and produce more hatred, fear, and anti-social behavior, paradoxically making people nicer and nicer inside loci but completely unaware and incapable of understanding that other people are nice to each other because other people's trajectory of becoming nice was completely different from theirs; 
loci of non-aggression include: towns, families that have not experienced violent child abuse or the murder of a spouse, clusters of employees and owners that haven't committed horrible abuses against each other yet, clusters of tenants the landlord hasn't [[E:landlord rape incidents|literally committed crimes]] against, individual churches, segregated White towns without any gangs, Black towns without any racists, towns without any homeless camps, tiny satellite cities that produce nothing but are not "menaced" by big cities or taxes, individual local-states that come to accurately or falsely believe they've reduced themselves to one Liberal-republican party and no longer worry about the other, clusters of minority subpopulations, the US Bill of Rights, clusters of religions that believe they only have freedom of religion because they all exist together and none of them stopped existing, the overall US empire as it exists in a state of not having wars on its immediate borders, clusters of First World countries that are friendly toward each other but get together to oppress Third-World countries and even more so any Second-World countries that exist as "aggressives"

Trotsky wrecking Stalin's Marxism is immaterial if Stalin was trying to build a worse version of Marxism over a better version of Marxism. when Liberal-republicans do that, it's counter-revolutionary, so when Stalin does it, it's also counter-revolutionary, no need to even start arguing about The Bureaucracy yet. meta-Marxists, {{em|you}} go build Stalin's Marxism in another country so it doesn't wreck Trotskyism, not the other way around. and I would say, that's a good point actually. maybe Stalin {{em|did}} accidentally transplant a Marxism meant for much more undeveloped countries to the Soviet Union. and maybe it's technically true that Stalin's Marxism vulgarizes really quickly into Dengism if you aren't watching it closely. is Stalin actually a Maoist? are Stalin and Mao actually Dengists? sometimes I just don't know any more.

I think this was solidly falsified the moment humans invented generative AI. there's been a pretty solid consensus building that generative AI just is Evil and when it exists as an industry some industries are Evil, if that didn't already happen with the oil industry. what anarchists really really don't want to understand is that this discovery has horrifying implications for the philosophical foundations of anarchism. if people can be Good or Evil solely based on what their talents are, you can never guarantee that 'the totality of all non-aggressive activities not forbidden by The State' will ever get along rather than fighting each other and erupting into hierarchy or domination purely because people are determined for one decision to be made rather than another decision and to call that decision Good and the other decision Evil. that is the root of a lot of hierarchy if you ask me. but it's also unavoidable, because who's going to persuade anarchists to just tolerate all the stuff that they feel oppresses them? I think it's more realistic to admit that anarchism can contain domination and hierarchy and the claims it doesn't were lies, and just define anarchism around some other concept than Good and Bad — that includes "domination", "hierarchy", "decency", "respect", "disruption", "empathy", morality, ethics, "enchantment" (which turns into ethics in a couple seconds), "prejudices", and "White culture". the one completely nebulous thing they say that I am genuinely unsure whether they can or can't have is Freedom, because that has hundreds of definitions and I'm still not sure I understand what it is. so, yeah, {{em|maybe}} you can get away with defining anarchism as Freedom-ism and basing it on these long treatises of exactly how Freedom works descriptively with no prescriptive statements about it.

male culture: Digimon Adventure. female culture: MLP gen 4. it's quite obvious what is what with kids' media when you have networks wanting to aim products at apparent differences between boys and girls to try to get more consistent sales, but even when you can point out a 'show for girls' and a 'show for boys' they are not actually that different if they're any good. hence all the bronies, hence that awkward space of women watching anime and trying to ignore the grossly exaggerated female silhouettes because nothing else about the show or game is especially bad. I think you also see this with things aimed at adults but it would be hard to think of an example where you get such a 'nice' region of awkward crossover. {{book|Dragonriders of Pern}} can be argued to be female culture I guess, but it's easy to forget that. then there's like, an argument to be made that {{book|Harry Potter}} is so misogynistic that it's male culture coming out of a woman — if it wasn't enough of an insult to accuse it of being such an 'uncool' book series as to be read by more moms and dads than kids — but it's also just within the range of 'teenage' enough that teenage girls can get obsessed with the male characters. 
so, male culture and female culture are very similar on basic levels. but "queer culture" is something different from either of them. you can really start to identify it the moment you see a furry visual novel with a plot that's "weirdly straight" — where some of the characters are stereotypes, or where the writing is okay but all the characters have totally depressing problems that make you wonder why you're reading a book right now and not just talking to the people around you that are the human equivalent of Twitter feeds, here assuming you also don't like Twitter. when these kinds of things are made "correctly", they have a very different feel. you see people being... idealistic? living in their own world, but not really in an upsetting way. they stop thinking about the outside world where everybody isn't of the same finite cluster of LGBT+ people and the atmosphere becomes very... specific to the people who are there. I want to say "insular" but that's more negative than what I actually mean. 
I think part of what I am saying is that LGBT+ circles tend to generate this consciousness of being a teeny village of people just because they are inherently limited to having only tiny clusters of people available, and because of this they sometimes also start believing that they inherently constitute some kind of "anarchist tribe" that must transition to anarchism because it will never contain enough people to spawn a Liberal-republican nation-state. the way different subpopulations in the United States get so separated really seems to mess with people's heads and cause people to see themselves as entirely separate stateless "nation-states" with separate histories, right down to subconsciously imagining whole trajectories of transition only for their own cluster of people of a particular identity and based on the exact number of people that are in it at the moment. it's funny how identities will take the notion of forms of society comically literally to the point a Marxist would scold them for reading historical materialism too closely, but then they will not even know they're doing it and try to deny that forms of society and social transitions are a thing and just try to tell you everybody needs to transition to anarchism because gay people exist.

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Orange terrain is solid / Orange terrain is stable / Trotskyism is composed of fine-scale structures that are distinguished by their ability to stop parts of society from being overtaken and taken advantage of by The Bureaucracy; these structures may be referred to as "orange structures", although this only labels one specific function of the structures or process they contribute to and is not meant to be exclusive with the category of them being crimson structures / The dictatorship of the proletariat is an unbroken terrain of connected orange structures -> 
so apparently it's only when you look deep into what Trotskyists are claiming The Bureaucracy is that you finally start to understand what it is they're trying to create. they want one basic thing within any particular region, which is the dictatorship of the proletariat; the concept of international permanent revolution can actually be conceptualized as being emergent from this, because anything that keeps continuously defending outwardly red or orange countries from turning strawberry or blue and does appear in multiple nearby countries can link across the country regions so they can defend each other from encroaching bourgeois factions and form a Second World. this makes a lot more sense. the very first few times I read about Trotskyism I took it as this vaguely Idealist proclamation that things [[E:"I believe that everybody" statement|should have happened]] in other countries [[E:Monty Hall problem|that didn't happen]] and there "just should have" been international permanent revolution. but I now see it was more complicated than that. it's less that Trotskyists were upset Trotsky couldn't go to Germany and turn it orange and more that they were upset that the Third International seemingly refused to create a correct model of what happened in Germany, so they thought they had to tirelessly protect any region that really did have the potential to create a dictatorship of the proletariat, wherever it was, to keep The Bureaucracy from getting into it because the parties allied with Stalin were not safe from getting 'infiltrated' and slowly turning strawberry. the aim of trying to hold down a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat and prevent strawberry Marxisms from forming is respectable, given how many strange things strawberry Marxisms do on their best days ('corporations are productive forces', 'socialism is getting rid of poverty', party-approved listicles) and the few actually-awful things they do on their worst days (pre-emptively thinking rude people are reactionaries just because they're rude, battle between strawberry cops and Maoists buried inside resistances). historically speaking strawberry Marxisms are very similar to blue factions in that they slowly restore this dynamic of the most powerful people generating more power and keeping down the weakest people. I wouldn't blame anyone for acting like strawberry Marxisms simply aren't something to be messed with and are more something you want to stop at the root. as long as the people saying that are at least as Marxist as Stalin; anarchists really need to shut up and read enough stuff to learn how to do violet analysis before say anything on the topic of 'power multiplying'. if anarchists knew as much Marxism as the [[E:International Committee of the Fourth International|ICFI]] I would not be anywhere near as mad at them as I am and I would be more tolerant of proposals to create charcoal terrains that are supposed to serve the same function as orange terrains. I was in the beginning, but.... oh boy when anarchism only seems to generate more stupidity every day without ever getting better you quickly get tired of it

ethics itself is colonial in that without the creation of an empire you can't go on the continuing journey of people becoming 'more and more' ethical. you have to have that slump first where a huge atrocity is committed and then people progressively learn about it and apologize. a world without atrocities genuinely might not need morality or ethics at all. it might be a wholly amoral world. and the fact people are even talking about ethics may signal either that they're defending something awful, or that they aren't as good of people as they believe they are.

there's nothing wrong with people trying to do Marxist breakdowns of the elements or themes that make up popular media. not even if the popular work is superficial "slop". and you know why? the more popular something is the cheaper it gets to buy after a few years once people start donating it to thrift stores. if you manage to take a really popular work, however bad, and turn it into a teaching tool with a well known meaning, you've created really cheap propaganda that you don't need party organizers to distribute, that will keep getting spread around no matter how many party members get caught, and that will be harder to ban because the bourgeoisie created it and it wasn't created by a group of people easy to strategically label as "an invading foreign country". of all the things Western Marxists do, this is actually one of the smartest ones. because if Gramscians go into academia or movie studios and [[E:|take up job slots]], it doesn't make that big an impact on who can actually make decisions in industries or who can strike, but if you manage to change the use of an existing product then you've somewhat undone the ability of the corporations that made it to make decisions about what will be produced and what everyone is and isn't allowed to think before everybody else can.

{{li|I=S1/MX/ML|Q=618}}revolutionary lattice period / permanent revolution (meta-Marxism onto Stalin's Marxism) -> the motif of a historical era of physical events where people are linking horizontally to get through a battle against an initial bourgeois class rule or at the very least linking into a Lattice to form a nationwide party which will create a workers' state. the revolutionary lattice period ends when a workers' state is created, and it's significant because it allows for a very concrete mathematical definition of "Leninism" using graph theory. approximately synonymous with "permanent revolution", assuming you are not a Trotskyist. Trotskyists could still use this model to describe the creation of an orange party, but for them this is not permanent revolution at all because "[[E:international permanent revolution|permanent revolution]]" is the long setup period for creating a powerful Communist International that would in theory be able to stop imperialism and international wars.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Careers hold no life lessons / {{TTS|Careers*|Careers|title=* Specialized careers involving 4 or more years of prior training}} cannot teach life lessons / Because all specialized careers involving 4 or more years of prior training are incapable of seeing anything outside the system they operate in, no statement about "life in general for the human Subject" which a person put together as a statement as a guide to doing their career in the process of doing their career should be held up as The Truth; this includes the careers of David Graeber, Rebecca Sugar, Slavoj Žižek, Carl Sagan, Dinesh D'Souza, and Donald Trump, and it includes the careers of Stalin and Trotsky -> I don't really have to include Mao in that because he came from the peasantry and had a bunch of statements about not 'worshiping' books or theorists (those seem to multiply every time there's a new Marxist republic although nobody heeds them.) so I think he's in the clear, but Stalin and Trotsky on the other hand had cast all sorts of aspersions on each other about being bureaucrats, leading everybody outside the Soviet Union to believe they both were.

{{li|I=S1/IV/MX|Q=618}}spontaneous explanation for Trotskyism / contingent explanation for Trotskyism / group-psychological explanation for Trotskyism -> a "spontaneous" explanation for Trotskyism is an attempt to explain the history of Trotskyism which focuses on the causes of individual events and why people might have formed into these events on the day they happened, in the moment. 
these might include: Trotskyists getting expelled from the CPSU was psychologically traumatic or at least not predicted by their theoretical models, people continue to found Trotskyist parties because they identify with the psychological trauma of early Trotskyism and pick it up and advocate about it as a sort of generational trauma they feel is unresolved and waiting for justice, incompatibility between Trotskyist factions and mainstream Marxist-Leninist factions for various reasons created and still creates physical antagonisms between the parties leading them to want to form separate "countries" or civilizations (that last one is easily phrased in terms of dialectical materialism and has no need for a single 'inciting incident').

{{li|I=S1/IV/MX|Q=618}}theoretical explanation for Trotskyism / explanation for Trotskyism based on analysis of internal theoretical models used by Trotskyist groups and exactly what historical processes and class interactions or horizontal antagonisms are being claimed inside said theories -> for the longest time I had a hard time finding any of these because of how so much of what Trotskyists say is just lies. I found it a lot easier to analyze their claims once they came out with an LLM and like, I was finally able to make that thing behave like the only Trotskyist that didn't lie for a few minutes at a time (before it started blatantly lying again and going on about 'the Stalinist bureaucracy').

why have I never heard Trotskyists saying this. it's like, the thing they should be pointing out about North Korea. I think it's always the existence of the Soviet army that bothers them. which is so odd and ironic when Trotsky is one of the figureheads of "orange Leninism" and where did he start out? gosh, to live in a world where Trotsky had been every bit as effective at holding down the Second World as Kim Il-sung. with this information that analogy only gets better.

{{li|I=M3/LR|Q=618}}How will the Communist Party prevent {{book|Animal Farm}}? -> a question that's annoying but worth answering.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}You can't both believe in secular animism and think there's a point being made in {{book|Animal Farm}} / You can't both believe in secular animism and think there's a point being made in {{book|Animal Farm}}, because secular animism gives you an imperative to protect the animals from getting eaten, while {{book|Animal Farm}} implies that it doesn't matter what happens to them if they have an inferior culture containing [[E:inherently dominating idea (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideas]] -> there is a particular history of people forgetting {{book|Animal Farm}} had anything to do with Communism and taking it literally because they didn't read the book; in particular, this "interpretation" emerged out of the shadows and became famous when it was used to market capitalist products. {{book|Animal Farm}} being co-opted by vegetarians might seem a little obnoxious at first, but honestly? I think these people could become heroes. and here's why. {{book|Animal Farm}}, being an allegory, was meant to be read as a bit of a metaphor, but vegetarians with no knowledge of Communism took what they knew of the book and interpreted it literally. compared with a lot of methods used in the humanities (in particular in the arts; the situation could be a little better in fields like anthropology), taking things literally is inherently closer to Materialism and thus inherently closer to Marxism. if one were to deliberately analyze {{book|Animal Farm}} as if the animals were literally animals and not the Soviet Union, it would come across as the terribly inhumane and un-humanitarian narrative it really is. I mean, just think about it. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to kill a house cat a lot of people would find that concept disturbing. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to take self-determination away from a group of animals trying to save themselves from quite literally being chopped up and eaten if a population of people had power over them, that concept should be equally disturbing — if somebody wanted to cook and eat Russians just for being Russian almost everybody would consider that a severe human rights violation. and the ending for the Soviet Union was vastly worse than the ending of {{book|Animal Farm}}. the book was way too generous, when the reality was that things went back to the way they were before — if what had been going on before was Russians getting eaten, well, that would be happening again. if that were the universe we lived in you couldn't really blame Russians for going a little crazy and launching wars on neighboring countries; if that is the only way for them to have power and the United States not to have power which is "permitted", of course they're going to take the option where they don't get eaten, no matter how evil that option is. 
Animals kill others to survive. most animals in nature don't experience their survival being threatened constantly; in a normal situation the predator or rival patriarch or matriarch usually walks away at some point if they stand their ground long enough. but nation-states are very different because there's never anywhere to run off to permanently. if a conflict begins and the aggressor has no actual incentive to stop it's going to keep going until somebody starts killing people. it's just going to keep going until wars cull enough people (potentially millions and millions) that "the space to run away in" is at some semblance of being restored. because a society is just a lot of Animals standing together like they were one Animal, and societies threaten each other as wholes, but when a threat refuses to go away, Animals kill. anarchists cannot get away from this. they keep trying to assert that a world with too many people in it having wars "isn't necessary" and "there's no need to apply Malthusianism" but no matter what, their theories cannot [[E:existential materialism|explain what generates]] the actual observed behavior of Russians. the longer anarchists try to assert that indigenous ways of life 'were kinder on the earth' and 'were less violent', the longer real-world populations will attempt to kill millions and millions of people until the world literally has the maximum number of human individuals it did when human populations were mostly tribes. the actual material transition to a world where everyone is predisposed to believe secular animism is utterly horrifying.

{{li|I=S2/PT|Q=618}}It's rational for Russians to start wars and kill people if they will never be granted self-determination on the basis of a system where they try to help every Ukrainian and not start wars -> to correctly parse this proposition you have to understand that what is rational and what is ethical are not the same thing, contrary to what Kant says. 
this also doesn't mean that you can assert that 'getting rid of reason' will solve the problem, given that things that are 'rational' in this sense are rational precisely in the sense that they contain a specific [[E:causal logic (logical model of material causation)|sequence of causations]] and happen whether you want them to or not. 
Imperialism is the actual end of history + ?? = this.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Native Americans are capable of genocide / Inasmuch as indigenous populations are human, they are hypothetically capable of coming up with and practicing [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideologies]] that lead to large populational-scale numbers of people dying because other particular groups of people decide that they should die -> we really need to wake people up to the fact that a genocide can consist of five billion people equally drawn from all ethnic groups as opposed to a billion people of one specific ethnic group or nationality, in terms of whether a particular person's ideology can be ""inherently dominating"" enough to inherently lead to killing ten million people. if anybody in the world gets to keep calling a famine in Ukraine a genocide, then there are scenarios where advocating secular animism could itself be advocating for genocide, because it has the potential to kill orders of magnitude more people than that. if everybody would stop saying that about Ukraine, I might consider dropping this.

{{li|I=S2/A|Q=618}}Stalin's government committed genocide in Ukraine {{em|because}} they killed people using [[E:hierarchy (anarchism)|hierarchy]], and whenever a form of hierarchy is used that leads to a lot of people dying, that form of hierarchy is an [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideology]], and it is morally wrong to allow people to construct that form of hierarchy to any extent and morally right to tear it apart at every scale possible however small as soon as possible -> the best argument I can think of that the famine in Ukraine {{em|was}} a genocide. no, it's {{em|not}} very good. but at least it's logical enough to start analyzing, unlike a lot of things anarchists say. 
this.... is how a lot of people conceptualize the French Revolution, I think. ...oh god, that explains a lot. it even kind of explains where [[E:Menshevism (1900s)|Menshevism]] came from. the logic behind Menshevism is basically one that inherently dominating ideas merely need to be stopped. all Idealism is somewhat similar and there is a big overlap in Idealism between anarchism, Menshevism, Yaroshenkoism, Deng Xiaoping Thought, and Western-Marxism. while mainstream Marxism-Leninism is nearly the only philosophy ever to state that people don't actually decide what ideas to believe, and that they are always simply handed ideas at the populational scale rather than a population actually having a mind of its own and actually being able to think. that's the sense in which BlackPantherism is quite respectable, to say that Black people among other ethnicities get ideas from their current conditions {{em|is}} a Materialist philosophy. one remaining question is whether Trotskyism falls into the trap of Idealist revolution or whether it genuinely is a Materialist revolution. I've always analyzed Trotskyism by taking individual Trotskyists or groups and modeling them through Materialist concepts of revolution, but my conclusions often don't sound much like their conclusions. they always talk like Stalin could have chosen not to do "Stalinism" so I don't know. 
The act of handing money to another individual is in and of itself a hierarchy + Stalin's government killed Ukrainian farmers = this.

(generic; popular-culture expression of an Idealist campaign to slay [[E:inherently dominating ideology (anarchism)|dominating ideas]]) -> it took me a long time to put this concept into words, but yeah, I think the real problem with anarchism is that it is defining the concept of revolution based on Idealism. there seems to be a whole concept of an Idealist revolution where people think that if you can slay an "inherently dominating idea" that drives a population on a conceptual level, you can change one historical period into another historical period. now, to use some technical language, this is some unscientific SCP-report plotline {{censor|bullshit}}.

{{li|I=S1/A|tradition=|Q=618}}thoughtcrime (anarchism) -> the motif of anarchists banning ideas in order to prevent harmful forms of society from being created whether those forms of society are really actually harmful or not, and punishing people for spreading what are actually neutral ideas. 
you can't deny it, in actually asserting that all bad behavior starts at ideas and all change starts at prohibiting ideas, anarchism comes way closer to doing this than Communism.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}The act of handing money to another individual is in and of itself a hierarchy / The act of handing money to someone is in and of itself a [[E:spatial slot hierarchy (meta-Marxism)|spatial slot hierarchy]] because it is an act of deciding whether someone is good enough to do a task -> this claim would probably sound much stupider if it was coming out of an anarchist, but fortunately "hierarchy" isn't a big hang-up for me as much as a prosaic statement describing what kind of process is happening. 
that said, this is the thing you need to toss at anarchists who claim that hierarchy and expertise are different things. they really aren't. since the start of Liberal-republicanism expertise has generally been the source of almost all hierarchy. 
I feel like anarchists have shifted to saying "domination" largely so that when they mention "hierarchy" they don't sound as stupid. of course, it doesn't really help given that it's become so abstract that it's unclear what on earth it's even referring to.

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618}}X and X's brother / X and X's sister / Trotsky and Trotsky's brother (Animal Farm) / Rock and Rock's brother (Megaman exe) -> the motif of fictional stories taking a historical figure or previous fictional character in another continuity and creating a narrative parallel to them but then unexpectedly adding a sibling who actually does something and changes the story even if in a small way.

{{li|I=S1/HAS/Fy|Q=618}}gender roles in fairy tales -> I just started thinking about this suddenly today because I was trying to think if the concepts of "brother" and "sister" have different connotations in folklore, and then I started thinking about how weirdly often all the more negative characters in fairy tales are female. the wicked stepmother, the witch, maybe the wicked step{{em|sisters}}. but the male characters are often more neutral. kings and princes and medieval artisan type people all just have kind of a neutral presence or sometimes positive. there are some exceptions like 'the fairy godmother' that will be a positive influence. 
I.... don't know what the scope of this entry is because I'm not an expert in the humanities. I think it covers European fairy tales and probably through Eastern Europe into the rest of Asia but I don't really know what the division between "a fairy tale" and "a folktale" is, to me they're kind of the same thing. some people consider "Aladdin" to be broadly in the scope of fairy tales because there is a magic artifact or magic servant character that isn't so different from the fairy godmother. but that extends the geographical range of fairy tales quite a bit. what's the difference between a fairy tale and just a legend that people don't necessarily think is true? I think there's a clear difference between a fairy tale and a "myth" in that myths are religious stories from an ancient time of local gods, and fairy tales are about 'smaller' magical things that sort of just hide themselves in tiny places and cause mischief — "fae" sums up the concept of where fairy tales get their fantastical elements pretty well, you're thinking of a character that is usually pretty small and missable but can also be very powerful, could be the fairy godmother, could be a leprechaun. but I'm pretty confused on the difference between a fairy tale, a folktale, and a legend, because legends can have dragons in them; they don't have to be "historical".

{{li|I=S1/ML|Q=618}}belief (utilization) / believing in (utilizing) / I believe in solving math problems with lambda calculus / I believe in pomodoro timers -> a definition of "belief" which is one of the very few sensible ways to define the phrase "believing in Marxism". 
I think it's arguable that this definition doesn't apply to ideologies like Christianity, or even to a lot of secular systems of ethics; ethics is a potentially wrong descriptive model of reality pretending to be a technique. but, on the bright side, this motif does provide a lot of context for why people like to claim Communism "doesn't work". you could easily say "pomodoro timers don't work!" but if you aren't versed in how people actually use them and the exact conditions where people claim they do work versus what specific kinds of conditions lead them to fail, then you wouldn't necessarily be making a true accusation. at the same time, if you {{em|did}} claim "Pomodoro timers work!" without knowing how to use them, you also might not be making a true claim. that's why the conflict between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism has been so hard to resolve. out of the very limited number of people in the world who knew how to use Marxism at the time, or that do now, not all of those people genuinely understand how it's currently being used. and it's all downhill from there, because as you get further away from them, ordinary people only know less and less. 
you really do learn a lot more about Marxism itself by examining Trotskyist attacks on Marxism than you do by examining a lot of attacks on Marxism inside Liberal-republicanism. and in that, I think they actually have a counter-intuitive effect on consciousness in the grand scheme of things where depending on the specific issue them making errors may be less harmful than them not being there. not {{em|better}} precisely, yet definitely {{em|less bad}}.

this sounds weirdly like I'm on the side of Buddhism over early capitalism. I'm not. I'm just very tired of capitalism acting like it's fully justified to keep power over everything and prevent anything else that would happen after it from forming just because it's better than ancient imperial monarchies. 
if Hegel had known what an "end of history" was, he would have believed that monarchy and feudal orders were the end of history. and now Fukuyama thinks he's not as wrong as Hegel when he does the same thing. honestly... right down to even that thing where you claim a bunch of abstract ideas led to a material system yet were the only possible train of conclusions. capitalist theorists and Kantians are almost exactly just the Hegel of capitalism.

also... funny story, when messing around with writing fiction and trying to throw Snowberg into a dystopia this had caused Valenoern to accidentally reinvent Trotskyism. but that takes a while to explain, and is a story for another day. to keep things short, they really did not know anything about the history of socialism or what Menshevism or Bolshevism were, they just sort of, created a character in the vein of "Emmanuel Goldstein" (that's just an example) from abstract concepts but didn't know that in the case of 1984 that was Trotsky, and so they reinvented Trotskyism. we've had a lot of fun with anticommunist fables and finding Trotsky in them since then.

I wouldn't disagree with this, although... I think there are a few interesting things to note about it. for one, the environment of online videos gives Trotskyists a bizarrely huge advantage because they can all post videos from different countries and make it look like Trotskyism is a lot more omnipresent in any particular country than it really is, as well as like it's a long-standing philosophical tradition (technically not false) which is as rich as mainstream Marxism-Leninism is. online videos make it weirdly easy to "astroturf" the appearance of movements happening more intensely or widely than they actually are.

I've apparently cracked the problem of four word idioms for English without trying to. 
also... I watched this one video that was purposefully making a constructed language where it was impossible for individual words to hold meaning and only an entire sentence could mean something, because the sentence was a hash of a bunch of numbered concepts lined up or something like that. that's almost a real thing with drastically abbreviated propositions — the four words together mean something and each word may mean something specifically next to one of the others but the individual words cease to mean anything by themselves.

this proposition is both wonderful and terrible. it's wonderful in that I actually now have a working model of exactly why it is that anarchisms are overall so persistent and refuse to give up: anarchisms are not actually against Hegelianism, but they see {{em|themselves}} as the entire Hegelian dialectic. the concept of Stalin trying to model society as local structures transitioning into other structures? {{em|anarchists believe in that}} but they believe that very process right there must take the form of entire Communities burning each other down to create better Communities. it's terrible in that anarchisms will never realize this. they will never realize what they actually are, and they will always act like "freedom" actually is something rather than just an absence and the (sometimes justified) hatred of things they don't like and want to fight.

{{li|I=S2/Fy/MX|Q=618}}Corporate [[E:art product (economics)|culture products]] are not objects communicated from a director to each audience member, but are in practice generally objects communicated from one fan to another fan; not only is the "artistic vision" of one particular specific individual a ridiculous thing to expect culture products to have, but at the end of the day all corporate culture products are ultimately just pre-made commercial fan fiction -> the way you have to fix the fan fiction problem is so specific. I've had several "solutions" to it that were probably wrong. but I think the crux of it lies here. the most important relationship in the pipeline of culture products is them being passed back and forth between fans. on occasion quite literally when someone hands someone else a Steam code. most of the time a little more figuratively, in the form of let's plays, theory videos, and the construction of alternate timelines. capitalism makes a huge deal out of the sanctity of the corporation for no good reason. ideally what you want is the paid experts completing their task of churning out culture products without a lot of ado about how great or awful the workers are personally for particular actions and decisions, instead they just complete the task quietly and go home, and then you want the fans to be allowed to pass back and forth whatever they want to regardless of whether it has been modified. and you don't want the central party-nation freaking out about the airtight seal between corporation and fans and the fans "wrecking society by doing too much"; that should not be a real offense. instead, if anything, you want the central party simply noticing where the seal is breaking and doing inquiries into whether different kinds of products should be produced. it {{em|might be the case}} hypothetically that the ideal scenario is the seal breaking totally and government not even having to bother re-connecting any of the points of production to formal corporations because there is simply enough stuff that nobody actually has to pay for culture products any more and generally considers them all to cost zero or literally a couple loose coins at a thrift store. 
the last thing you want to see happening (ever) is a "Chinese map fiasco" where people perceive government as a brutal predator that munches on human social activity purely to digest it and start scheming about how to stay out of its mouth because they know everything only gets worse after you fall in. you can never let that happen because the moment it happens the whole of socialist transition will disintegrate. the petty bourgeoisie regenerates in a heartbeat and it happens anywhere and everywhere. you're much more at its mercy than you ever could have realized.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning Malthusianism is genocide / Whenever you choose to say a statement in Malthusianism you have chosen to cause other people to be bigoted {{YouTube|gv4R-hix9wM}} -> no... that isn't how it works. as a framework, statements inside Malthusianism could hypothetically be true without all of it being true, so if those are already true and you say them, you didn't cause them to happen. this is like saying that if you predict a box to contain a dead cat when somebody filled it out of sight then you caused it to contain a dead cat, even if the other options are unrelated to cats, like the other option is the box is empty. overpopulation leading to bad outcomes can hypothetically be the case whether you want it to or not, but the important thing to realize is that that doesn't have any bearing on what the actual bad outcomes are. the bad outcomes might not be anything like the simplistic scenarios in Malthus' essays of overcrowding or 'eating babies'. the bad outcomes might look more like an increase in people randomly murdering each other because everyone increasingly feels like everyone else is threatening their existence and they need to protect their existence because 'all individual existences deserve to be respected' {{em|or else}}; despite what everybody wants nobody will yield to anybody else and so people get furious and kill in order to regain control. if everybody's doing that, you don't have control over it; you can't just say "believing in overpopulation is bad" or "if we don't things will get better" to fix it. because when people really truly believe things "Should" work a certain way, especially if that "Should" is an ethical prescription, they won't listen to anything you say until reality magically fixes itself to be that way. people are just going to get angrier and angrier every single day there are too many people and those people are disorganized and attempt with steadily increasing blind rage to punish all the disorganized people that have not been planned or controlled in any way for not being controlled in any way. there's really no "society", "social-ism", "community" -ing out of that situation, because other people's ethical imperatives are not a social construct — you can only obey whatever the {{censor|fuck}} other people tell you to do or risk them doing violence to you... or kill them, I suppose. ethics is an infamously unyielding form of philosophy. if there existed any form of belief where everybody spontaneously giving it up would actually solve all our problems, then everybody giving up the entire concept of ethics would be it. think about it: every right-Liberal who tries to say that accumulating wealth is good relies on property rights, which rely on ethics. every nazi that tries to say trans people are destroying the United States relies on a right to not have this "intrude" on their lives, which relies on ethics. if everyone really actually got rid of ethics, they wouldn't be able to defend bad things either, because the whole concept that individuals can make "correct choices" that are superior to other choices in creating a future they would be satisfied with would be gone. there would be vastly more incentive to question your previous decisions and deconstruct arbitrary beliefs if ethics did not exist at all. "post-structuralist philosophy"? "prejudices" and "biases" that will never make sense as analytical tools once you stop being the person that wrote the paper? how about we just get rid of ethics and accomplish the same thing way better with way fewer problems. 
I think the thing that bothered me the most about this video is.... the Overshoot Theory video I remember from a while back was also leaning on Native Americans. Overshoot man was like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, overpopulation!}} while these people are like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, no overpopulation!}}. it honestly feels like a non sequitur in both cases. I feel like overpopulation genuinely has nothing to do with whether North American tribes 'have lived more sustainably', positively or negatively. the cases where you'd see overpopulation come from a genuinely different kind of society that operates through entirely different material processes. which means you can't analogize a smaller society to it.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}I'm not here to educate you / It's not my job to educate you (statement that minority groups do not have to explain oppression) -> I don't think you can treat this statement as generally true. funny story, I've been picking up books on Native American history when I go to used book sales, and like, these claim to be educational, but you open them up, and the last one I was reading was treating the tribe in question as very mystical. it was trying to be positive and imply there was nothing wrong with people having a different culture but it overall still ended up presenting things like Rolling Thunder (he was the main topic of the book) had a fundamentally magical way of thinking, that he's almost some kind of wizard with magic occult powers in the way he thinks as opposed to his culture being something that can ever be "normal". I think the book was from 1976 if I remember right, not recently. 
so like, telling people to go educate themselves and implying they can't talk to actual people to learn what their problems are could be very harmful. I suspect that it's old books like these that a lot of anarchists are learning about other groups of people from and effectively where they're getting their anarchism. or that even if that's not literally the case, that you can still study that example to learn about the problems with the thing anarchists are actually doing. 
I think there is like.... a nuance that's totally lost on anarchists about the interaction of individuals or populations. if there's somebody that goes around talking like Rolling Thunder, you can't really just take what he says and present it to other people as his fundamental way of thinking. people in industrial populations are going to take it negatively. there might be one or two people who literally take it as 'backward' and say mean things, but that's not what you need to watch for, the most likely harm you need to keep an eye out for is people softly deciding that tribal populations can't understand modern science and that the way of thinking they have presented is part of their fundamental essence that 'blocks' them from absorbing the understandings people have in industrial society. this is racist, because it puts you into the same rhetorical position as the people who were recently arguing that Black South Africans 'didn't want the farmland taken by Afrikaners because of their culture' and {{em|therefore}} it was okay for European apartheid states to descend in and take whatever they want. I think there's a decent argument to be made that claiming someone like Rolling Thunder has a fundamentally different way of thinking 'than European science' is flat out supporting colonialism and is The Colonizer Attitude, because, just look at its results. 
this leaves open the rather broad question of how exactly you can merge tribal populations' ways of thinking with modern science and the findings of industrial societies. we know it's not optional to do that. we know it's necessary to do it to not essentialize people and treat indigenous people as stupid. we know that anarchists trying to present older and more mystical ways of thinking as 'the natural way of thinking' is not okay because it what it effectively does is allow White people to appropriate indigenous culture for their own benefit but still deny that culture to the actual indigenous people and hand all the power of people to determine themselves, to be able to talk about all topics intelligently as the adults in the room and make sophisticated decisions on various topics and involving several different philosophies, to Europeans. putting yourself in a position where other people will essentialize you to one particular level of ideological development is dangerous. I think it's the anarchists that need to be told this more than the tribal populations; they've been through a lot and I think to some extent they know this. anarchists, on the other hand... I feel like it's vaguely possible that some day in the future, people will talk about anarchists as inherently mystical people and weirdly racialize all anarchists {{em|exactly}} the way they've done with tribes in North or South America.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}History is the progression of generational subcultures -> this is slightly different from the claim that history is the progression of father to son to son or mother to daughter to son to daughter etc., because it is talking about the progression of whole layers of thousands and thousands of people born in the same 5-10 year period, and is not centering itself around individuals or psychoanalysis. it's not psychoanalysis, and instead, it's shifted its entire focus over to art history, the humanities, or the history of an industry.

{{li|I=S2/HAS/MX|Q=618}}History is the progression of successive semi-countable art markets -> I'm a little astounded to find such an Idealist claim and such a Materialist claim in the same podcast right next to each other a sentence apart, but I'll take it. wow. this one is so telling. it accidentally reveals so much about the connection between capitalist theory, the growth of society, and the outward manifestations seen in culture products. 
let's think about this. a 'console generation' forms in order to raise the prices of the products (largely by producing them new), while decreasing the cost of entry. if the discipline is new, it won't be overrun with expensive equipment, stacks and stacks of money poured into expertise, and the prestige of certain brands creating natural monopolies. after a while, all the corporations in a given market have made their money and the products are everywhere such that neither can new corporations make money nor can old ones earn any more. so then the market resets and an entirely new market is created. a bunch of hype goes around to present the new thing as really great although it was created in order for the new products made for it to not have to be very good at first. and apart from video games, this happens for the general concept of mediums and a lot of physical formats. 
honestly. I trust this more than Habermas' conception of history as some kind of progression of morality where what is progress could become entirely subjective; at least you can measure what a sideways progression from one set of events to another {{em|is}}. 
console wars + History is the progression of generational subcultures = this.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}Some Jews don't support Israel {{YouTube|_Q0TxCCuXyU}} -> U.S. people don't know anything but Idealism, the treatment of everything as abstract qualities. so they have to take on "Jews" and "anti-semitism" as abstract concepts. when they do that, it predisposes them to racist understandings of what various ethnic groups "are". so then they bring out the point of "but surely one of them doesn't support Israel" (anti-essentialism) to badly try to prove that Idealism isn't racist.

{{li|I=S1/Fy/ML|Q=618}}treating the protagonists of anticommunist fables as unreliable narrators

{{li|I=S1/IV|Q=618}}dictatorship of the proletariat (Trotskyism) -> this is apparently its own specific thing. it seems it's typically defined in terms of how well the soviets can defend the overall country and any governing bodies against the re-emergence of capitalism.

{{li|I=S2/IV/MX|Q=618}}Soviet structures are vulnerable to being overcome by petty classes; soviet structures are not guaranteed to remain orange because depending on their class and preferred palette of social structures the individual national-employees inside them can add together to turn the structure charcoal, blue, or strawberry -> Trotskyism is weird. it has moments where it's totally unconvicing, and then it has moments where after you've been listening to the actually-okay theorists you have to go out of your way to find, it almost sounds like it got something right. this week, I saw that Trotskyists seemed to be describing the dictatorship of the proletariat as control by one big sea of soviets that are responsible for operating all the other organs of government — the thinking is that if all the soviets are made of proletarians and the soviets are orange, the soviets will keep all of the other structures from turning strawberry or any other unfavorable ideology. but then I thought about it for a bit, and I realized that this isn't an airtight strategy. in the real world, proletarians can level up into non-proletarians through small-scale processes, and it happens all the time whenever there aren't enough job slots or people simply don't fit into existing business territories' "culture". it's very easy for a country that's full of proletarians one moment to slowly morph into a country of skilled workers that all want their own businesses but will also complain when the reality of running them is much harder than they dreamed. 
this became apparent to me as soon as I saw Gramsci talking about a council for the "self-employed". that isn't a red or orange structure, that's a blue or strawberry structure. and those kinds of structures can undo a revolution. but it's also trivial for more of them to be produced through misapplied education or training. if the soviets have full control, it's easy for petty classes to rebel against all the orange soviets and start taking control of the whole country through whatever limited ability they have to assemble together groups of people that outcompete surrounding workers. 
dictatorship of the proletariat (Trotskyism) + proletarians promoting into Careerists = Soviet structures are vulnerable to being overcome by petty classes.

{{li|I=S1/AS/HM|Q=618}}moral evolution (critical theory) / Hegelian evolution of morality / historical development of societies as conceptualized around morality or ethics [https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/04/01/habe-a01.html] / procedural theory of rationality (Liberal-republican ethics; Habermas) -> the concept in Habermas of modeling either large or small changes in societies through changes in morality and the resulting changes in society. I'd hate this except that it gets really funny when you apply it to world civilization and actual changes between historical periods, revealing a lot about how imperialism works; in a way, it's so bad it's good. I guess that's about what you should expect to get when you start with Hegel. Liberal-republicanism is frustrating but Hegel really isn't so bad in the end.

{{li|I=S1/LR|Q=618}}deformed Liberal states / degenerated Liberal states -> the motif of Liberal-republican countries looking at other nation-states and regarding them as deformed versions of themselves that need to be punished until they form correctly. 
deformed Liberal states + moral evolution (Trotskyism) = deformed workers' states.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Morality itself tends to favor a world of "small business hell" simply because the assumptions that lead to people creating morality {{em|happen to lead there}} and all Idealist statements when put together spit out some kind of real-world consequence -> I find it frustrating that people will start from a set of arbitrary Ideals and then just deontologically assume that if those Ideals are good then whatever they produce must also be good. to me Habermas' theory of moral consciousness just doesn't make sense as a material theory of history because in one way all moral or ethical values are always arbitrary; there will always be a point where people assume that what they're currently doing is morally good or superior just because it's the thing a lot of people are doing and none of them want to stop doing it while any other group of people must be morally bad just for doing a different thing that threatens to replace that thing, even before they actually demand other people trade in what they're doing for the new thing.

{{li|I=S2/ML|Q=618}}Idealism produces material outcomes / All Idealist statements or combinations of Idealist statements lead to some kind of real-world consequence -> there are many ways to take this. one of the surface conclusions is that Idealism isn't as explanatory as Materialism. one of the most interesting conclusions is that you can "meta-game" Idealism and figure out the best Ideals to tell people in order to get them to create particular material results. this {{em|is}} essentially lying to people to manipulate their behavior, which if it were up to me I don't really like, but a lot of people believe that most human beings' understanding of the world will never go above that level, which might make it ethical under some theories of ethics.

{{li|I=S1/DFy/DX|Q=618}}Dengist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was Western-Marxist (strawberry Marxist, Gramscian, Dengist / Deng Xiaoping Thought) -> so, {{book|Attack on Titan}} has a dumb premise. it reads like a campfire horror story told by nazis in very little irony. but it {{em|is}} really funny to imagine some of the same central themes being used in an approximately Marxist work. like, instead of it being a nazi campfire story the titans are trying to scale a "Berlin wall", or penetrate China or North Korea to take them back for Liberal-republicanism, the titans are hiding out on Taiwan, the titans are sealing people into Cuba and not letting {{em|them}} leave. there obviously wouldn't be a focus on the concept of the big antagonist monsters being 'impure' or 'diseased', that element of it probably wouldn't exist. it would just be kaiju trying to break into the country and do something horrifying. it's gotta be a little over the top. it's gotta be about turning them all into kaiju for some nefarious but useful purpose, like, I dunno, the kaiju feed off negativity and if they all turn into kaiju and fight each other the whole population of kaiju becomes stronger. everyone is horrified about the invasion and it brings them all together.

{{li|I=S1/Fy/A|Q=618}}anarchist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was anarchist -> {{em|this}} is why I am having an increasingly hard time telling the difference between Deng Xiaoping Thought and anarchisms. like, once again, anarchism succeeds when you build a wall around it — probably metaphorically — and wait for the outside to tire itself out. I can't tell the difference between Gramscian Eren Yeager and anarchist Eren Yeager. 
oh god when I just go saying ideologies in a sentence of course my brain is going to shout "Trotskyist Eren Yeager". I don't know what that means. I don't know what that means at all. I dunno, like, the enemies are more like Reptilians or Yeerks and they're hiding out in the central government and nobody wants to believe it so the anti-alien squads are like trying to team up across regions? I tried.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Sociality distorts human beings' view of material reality -> anarchists are going to get so upset if you try to argue this at them. they'll try to argue that reality is whatever comes naturally to living things, and different states of natural for each living species must naturally want to go together, blah blah blah. [*] but they're all privileged. they haven't experienced a state of truly being fenced out of society by thousands and millions of people that all simultaneously agree they don't like you (probably without having met you or having much of any idea what they're doing). they especially haven't experienced it owing to the existence of anarchism, because anarchism already selected for people like them. but they should wise up to the fact that anarchism doesn't really pass the veil of ignorance with flying colors. it's quite easy to end up on the wrong side of "community" where you simply have nobody and nothing and also everyone assumes you must be a bad person just because you haven't claimed an exclusive spot in Community that supposedly you only have to be nice to people to get and follow morality though in reality it's much more difficult and complicated and trivial to simply be born wrong and fail to survive the ecological parameters of the 'community-icene'. I think that as a period of biological life the Anthropocene truly began at tribal society, not at industrial society. it was the ability to form entire ecosystems made of nothing but humans that changed things, but {{em|if anarchists are correct}} that the natural state of humans and human psychology is in tribes then all the current destruction of the environment ultimately came from the characteristics of tribes. tribal populations are not wholly innocent for all the horrors of global empire and ecological destruction if at the end of the day we're {{em|all}} still tribes and they're the only ones trying to disclaim that there are bad things about that. really, as crazy as it sounds, they might be accidentally benefiting from a corrupt system that has killed great numbers of people. of course, if humans don't have a seemingly eternal resting state of being in tribes that we have no choice but to return to which in turn implies we are currently tribes in denial and will still be tribes for the next hundred thousand years, then tribal populations carry no blame for what industrial societies have done. 
(* why didn't they say that about workers' states and the healthy state of the Soviet Union versus the very disordered states that occurred at every moment after tearing it apart? they have even less excuse than Trotskyists. Trotskyists wilfully wanting to overwrite another Marxism with their own Marxism is at least logical even if it's terrible.)

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}"Indigenous people" marks a statement as racist / Saying "indigenous people" marks a sentence as containing racial stereotypes {{YouTube|fwecpbB1DPs}}
{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning ethnic groups is racist / Mentioning an ethnic group without mentioning a specific individual marks a sentence as containing potentially-harmful racial stereotypes -> this is what you have to believe for the above statement to be true. like, if "indigenous people" marks a racial stereotype, then saying a more specific group of people like "Inuit" should equally mark a racial stereotype — how does the person you're talking to {{em|know}} that you're giving correct information about all Inuit people and not just saying something false? but if this is true, you couldn't go to Congress and say "Black people" or "Mexican immigrants" for any legitimate purpose without mentioning individuals that supposedly make the example truer. does it actually make statements more accurate to include specific individuals? I feel like it adds nothing but also subtracts nothing. 
this is a really weird criterion for judging whether statements are accurate. I know where it comes from, it comes from people trying to judge everything through positivism and claim that Lived Experiences are a pathway to truth while a lack of Lived Experiences is a pathway to falsity. it's still really weird. it doesn't seem to accomplish the thing it sets out to accomplish at all, and just seems to make all statements said about any group of people more worthy of doubting. "White people have the colonizer attitude"? maybe not!! Ben was doing that, but did you ask Carla?? "Black people experience structural racism"? maybe not!! you didn't mention an individual so in theory you might be racist for even saying that. 
Mentioning ethnic groups is racist + Anti-essentialism is a pathway to truth = Pointing out racism is racist.

{{li|I=S2/ES/ML|Q=618}}Referring to Communists without mentioning a specific individual is unacceptably prejudiced / If mentioning ethnic groups without mentioning a specific individual is racist, which is to imply that talking about groups of people in the abstract rather than as a particular countable number of concrete objects is racist, then mentioning "Communists" or "Cubans" or "people who support Stalin" without naming a specific individual for evaluation is equally prejudiced; every time somebody has said "tankies" or "totalitarians" or "Stalinist(s)" outside a particular context has been an unacceptably prejudiced statement -> this is another loophole in this. god I love it when really bad propositions break open so bad they wrap around to supporting Communism

there's no such thing as "man being born free". man is always part of something, such as family units, tribes, or kingdoms. it has to be this way, or humans wouldn't even be able to reproduce! total freedom would mean that people couldn't even find other people. there would be no babies. but when humans are able to interact and cooperate, it also creates competition, which most obviously results in judges and laws and ultimately results in states. states come from the existence of countable populations, or the existence of two separate conflicting populations. there has to be an active separation from the units people are already part of to even create the state of "man born free". like Thoreau actively going away to his own cabin away from where he started. that movement from A to B is very important and has to be taken into account in the theory. people who think like this seem to think humans are born at the age of 30 out of an egg and they're never babies and they never have babies.

I feel like even when Liberal-republicanism is working reasonably well it asks for this impossible perfect situation of every town being a perfect balance of all parties that currently exist, when that just isn't how towns work; you actually have to redraw the districts every election so they contain half one party and half another, or there isn't even actually an election being had. there's also the problem of people moving around for work and throwing off the balance of districts, which is almost inevitably going to happen faster than new maps happen. it's very hard to separate Liberal-republican elections from people who are demographically and anthropologically part of political parties fighting over the right to control all the representatives for a given county or local-state. that's kind of just what Liberal-republicanism {{em|is}}. in concept the only "boring" way to stop it is to stop treating parties as a subject of elections and just say, yeah, no, parties are regional states now containing several US states or containing several cities and you vote for who leads your party but the group of attached capitalists that wins rules the country. if you did it that specific way people would get so mad, but on the other hand it's about how every blue anarchist already sees things, so they'd be mad because the system was honest instead of lying to people.

New Democracy started out with allowing the nationalist faction and capitalists to exist, and when it ceased to exist "proper" it morphed into having the CPC, the capitalists, and a layer of mediators between the top layer of theorists and capitalists (which is rather blue; I made that sound like capitalist-theorists for a reason) such as the ancient petition system. China is somewhat ruthless on public officials as a group, which is probably how it's stayed stable, but it does very little to them just for being capitalists. in North America, you see a similar thing pop up with the National Labor Relations Board and the layer of labor lawyers. in terms of classes, you may as well be taking that sea of labor lawyers and sending them to the US Congress. 
lawyers are constantly trying to keep things exactly as they are, prosecuting anything that appears to threaten businesses, and sometimes representing unions and trying to get businesses regulated. but in a way, it's always the lawyers that win, because it's always the lawyers that get to decide what the outcomes of all conflicts are and what is going to be recorded in federal and regional law. lawyers think they've tamed all human conflicts, saying, here is gender law and here is race law and here is labor law. but all the conflicts between lawyers where they think they've won or lost are illusory, because all of it is a proxy war that is only carried out by imagined facsimilies of real things. people say that Communism "only works on paper", but Liberal republics somewhat literally live all their history {{em|on paper}} inside the arguments of appointed lawyers. it's very easy for all these arguments to simply be working off hypothetical models of how groups of people interact with each other that are just plain wrong, and when those models and amendments are wrong, laws and amendments will fail to function or be repealed. critical race theory is like 20% of the way to understanding how bad the problem is. yes, laws about race are often working off wrong models, but so is every other law. quite honestly, to get laws that work you need to abolish the entire concept of Idealist law and make laws which are more following the principles of existential materialism; whenever a law doesn't reflect how people really behave, it has to be replaced with one that has a real understanding of social dynamics and how to control them. I think that's the best way to create transitional laws within a workers' state that is attempting to hold its structure long enough to gradually make laws and government irrelevant. all Idealist laws will eventually be pushed back on by material reality, while a truly Materialist law would be followed so well it would hardly ever have to be enforced.

{{li|I=S1/HAS|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}religious counterparts of education [https://www.britannica.com/topic/Hinduism/General-nature-of-Hinduism] -> so I knew the area of Vedic religions was vaguely where the narrative of "the elephant" had come from, and I always liked that idea; I brought it up a few times recently. but it took me a while to put together the language for exactly why. Hinduism basically has a general concept of what education is baked into it. it tries to compensate for the fact that all people have different levels of education and study different sets of experiences or observations within different populations or regions and they could all understand some things correctly but the people at greater levels of education may be closer to understanding the whole picture. and the concept is tailored to the religion or cluster of religions and the notion that it is possible to get greater knowledge of "spiritual truths", but you know, taking it away from that context and looking at it on its own, it's a great concept. I honestly think it's pretty good. 
I wish people wouldn't use concepts like this to put subjective experience over the material world and potential alternatives like seeing overall populations as physical objects, but, what can you do. in some ways religion "absorbs" or "co-opts" the concept of education and awareness to spread its own message, like with the notion of Māyā or Christ as the true reality, but in other ways, religion just accidentally describes the general process of education and I can't really be against that. I think to some extent we can "keep" those parts.

they said the phrase "dropped anywhere in the world"... so are they Trotskyists? oh yeah Alan Woods is on there, this is the IMT. 
so, a workers' state has to be created some time before 2106-2124, we won't say it has to survive the whole time because that wasn't promised, but we will say it has to somehow help stop Israel because that is on the program and is one of the most common issues I've seen the North American "Lefts" talk about. and if this organization splits into one that succeeded, we'll say it succeeded. we have a very clear claim here. 
they really buried Alan Woods and the Fourth International into the deeper pages. so... in my mind, that means the workers' state should consist of at least two countries but has no particular minimum number. if the US, Canada, and Mexico all join a single Fourth International with every country in South America and Europe and Australia that's a smashing success, but it's not required for this claim.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}The proletariat is set down into place by either well-conceived large corporate structures ([[E:republic of walmart|republics of walmart]]) or petty-bourgeois territory squabbles dominated by vanity and emotionally-explosive subjective flailing over questions with no answer; the proletariat itself will be discovered beneath all the subjective flailing with genuinely no actual stake in any of the squabbles, having been too tired to even give an answer or participate in them, ready to slot into the structure and see the whole thing completed once all the dumb arguments on the upper level have ended just to have the whole thing complete and functioning; the proletariat will be discovered beneath the realization  that almost every actual decision made to decide what culture is and how political issues are resolved have been unimportant to the proletariat because for one reason or another they have all been sites of petty-bourgeois division into named factions or unnecessarily-plural named ideologies or movements, and at times, even divisions between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism or Trotskyism and Trotskyism have been part of this needless division, while the correct analysis of how to unify as many of these divisions together as feasible was what was advantageous to the proletariat -> 
finally, I have a definition of the proletariat specific to violet Marxism emerging from violet Marxism's general understanding of classes. the proletariat exists as thousands or millions of plural proletariats mainly because the petty bourgeoisie is busy dividing up proletarians and constantly fighting itself. the petty bourgeoisie is one of the most annoying classes in history because it's genuinely capable of having a class rule where within the smallest places it rules it doesn't actually conflate its class territories with one specific person, and it can genuinely rule a territory as a cooperating team of people. this messes up {{em|everyone}}. every single prior historical event has involved specific individuals being conflated with class territories, so when petty bourgeois islands show up, they get super confused and start to think class society has been abolished and they must be the final class, but they're not, because the fact their island is divided from another island and makes decisions separate from others is a class! 
it sounds strange at first but once you've had to live with a world full of newsfeeds where a bunch of independent producers are constantly competing against each other to all make decisions you can't affect and it's easier to come into contact with {{em|them}} than any actual friends or social connections, you start to understand it. {{em|that}} has to be prevented at all costs. people will have to get used to the purpose of labor being to make structures that slot into larger structures and which are specifically to serve everyone {{em|but}} them as opposed to them first, or else human existence will be a bunch of petty squabbles forever. and I am so done with that. I'm even done with anarchists doing that, I'm done with all of it.

{{li|I=S2/MX/JC|tradition=|Q=618}}Kim Il-sung is not North Korea / Kim Jong-il is not North Korea / Kim Jong-un is not North Korea -> this is actually true. it's abused by Liberal-republicans and agorist types all the time for the wrong reasons but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea by itself. yes, North Korea is the overall body of North Koreans. and the reason [[E:Juche-socialism and Dengism are the same thing with no actually meaningful differences|Dengism]] is so weirdly effective is that it actually concerns itself with and obsesses over the whole body of Chinese citizens or North Koreans. so, whether Juche-socialism is actually a good thing or not is really complicated. because on one hand, it is entirely capable of understanding that individual North Koreans are not North Korea itself no matter how popular they are, and that center-wing nationalism in North Korea really is about serving all North Koreans as a people, and absolutely not about serving specific individuals. Juche-socialism is — shocker — a republic. it understands the concept that a republic is an anarchy created by either snapping off the king or bringing together a [[E:conglomerate anarchy|stationary combination of heterogeneous elements]], although the mere concept of that makes both blue and charcoal anarchists mad. all Liberal-republicans and anarchists seem to want to believe Liberal-republicanism or anarchism are special and Dengism could not possibly be equally as good as Liberal-republicanism. and they're just plain wrong. Dengism is almost exactly as good as Liberal-republicanism is, and that absolutely blows a gaping hole in everything they say. it exposes both Liberal-republicanism {{em|and}} blue anarchism as petty-bourgeois nonsense which is all about chauvinism to a little isolated island of people just because it's yours. which, yeah, is one of the most ironic things ever in context — an ideology which is explicitly about center-wing nationalism and national unity has exposed United States chauvinism. this is especially damning for charcoal anarchism because it wants to act like it's above everything and the only way to reach the final stage of world civilization, the only way to bridge all the world's gaps and unite everybody, but like, it can't unite the displaced Native Americans who now love anarchism and North Koreans, it can't unite Black people obsessed with anarchism and North Koreans. so basically all anarchism in the United States is petty-bourgeois nonsense. the easy litmus test for what is and isn't that is whether a particular ideology can unite North Koreans with United States people on their own terms without making any of the decisions outside North Korea. an ideology that can do that is viable, and an ideology that cannot do that is garbage.

one of the evident weaknesses of vector models is they can only describe one kind of relationship between tokens rather than actual different kinds of relationships, such as something being understood as a synonym or an antonym or forming from other things joined together instead of breaking apart into other things. this is where the model of vectors or coordinates actually having different numbered Properties or relations that connect them to things really could have shined. you can take away linguistic ambiguity where a word means two different things for different reasons, or even uses of a word that historically were related but aren't any more, and you might be able to decrease the complexity of the model by not using the same coordinate for so many things and needing all those connections on a given coordinate. this isn't what the brain does but there are some times you probably don't want your model to be like the human brain; the same processes that make it easy to encode information efficiently make it easy to bake prejudice into everything and make it impossible to separate prejudice from a bunch of things that are okay.

(there might also be some worrying conclusions for Palestinians after all the claims that they've done morally wrong things to Israel.) 
gosh this just really makes me wonder what it would be like if Animal Farm was set in Australia and also for no particular reason the characters were furries. it would make it so much more disturbing that people apparently keep them as slaves. but it would make it way easier to tell the story of Cuba where people constantly deny that the argument is over slave plantations and the Confederacy realistically extended over two whole country regions. we've had this whole argument about trying to delete slavery from history books and yet there's one part of it the Confederacy solidly won that nobody even talks about.

I think the correct answer is that friendship or a strong relationship is its own thing and it is not blue. I don't know what color friendship actually is, I couldn't begin to guess that right now. but I really suspect that the way agorism has colonized social relationships and turned them into markets is an illusion.

the worst thing is that it's not just Marcuse that says this, I've seen "real" Marxists say this. 
I think one possible cause of this is bourgeois models of reality penetrating deep through society, and in particular the agorist model of society penetrating deep down to the smallest layers, because small capitalist ideology is actually the most popular capitalist ideology now. Animal Farm 2026 literally promoted small businesses in a newspaper! and they thought this would be inspiring as opposed to hilarious in its transparency. yeah, I think there is a pervasive model that on the larger scale societies consist of capitalism but on the smaller scale societies consist of what is claimed to be "community" but what is in fact agorism, and people silently believe that ethnic groups themselves are made of market mechanisms and the breaking down of racist barriers occurs because market mechanisms break them down. this model seems like it would be amenable to Trotskyism because it contains the notion of capitalism inevitably shattering nation-states but it is actually a terrible trap where people will cling onto agorism and then act like it's the very definition of humanity itself and Trotskyists can't come in. honestly. I think agorism needs to be smashed before the world can make any progress. it's inside "Libertarianism". it's the basis of social platforms and all the complaints they bring out about "algorithms". it created Marcuseanism and got everybody mad about civil rights because they began to create a weird loop where talking about progress prevented progress. it might as well be the root of all evil. it's bizarre how often it comes up and

{{li|I=F2/HM/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism / Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism because it presents a picture of the entire industrial world unifying onto a shared body of laws (a Trotskyist socioeconomy and corresponding party structure; a Trotskyist "constitution" enshrining socialist transition), which is conceptually similar to the entire industrial world unifying onto the same shared body of moral values -> I love this statement because logically it should be true. logically speaking there should be no errors here. but historically it absolutely has not been true. nobody who believes in the moral vanguard model has been on board with realizing Trotskyism in their own country, they're always anticommunists, so historically they've been the most likely to tolerate Deng Xiaoping states. there was approximately a decade where you could get them to tolerate Stalin's Marxism specifically because it had a border around it and they would never have to accept it for the rest of time. 
it's quite a contradiction that Habermasians hate Communism, but like, you can get them to be pro- Soviet Union and pro-Stalin on a segregationist line of argument. they don't want to be changed. it's less important for them to expand their own morals and laws over other countries than it is that fundamentally you can't force {{em|them}} to change. so they claim to be about social change but fundamentally what they want is for things to stay the same as long as they subjectively like those things. it's hilariously accurate in unintended ways when agorist types try to frame Freedom as "subjectivity" — oh, really, so you're free when the evaluation of what is good or bad for society is completely subjective? it seems like when they speak of moral truth values they're just using formal logic to launder their preconceptions. how do we know that a purported crime "is" anything? you can say that "colonialism" is bad and that "anti-capitalists are against colonialism" but if you can't define what colonialism is and where it comes from (trust me, there is not a single answer, various different "The Lefts" are still arguing about that) then what does that statement even mean, and how does it have the power to stop anyone from doing anything? what does defining a moral truth value and affixing it to an event that happened actually get you in that context?

{{li|I=F2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Plagiarism is stating the population of England without context / Plagiarism is making a non-obvious statement of fact without providing sources; this is to imply that plagiarism is defined as having a belief which is materially accurate (true) but not justified / Remembering a fact is plagiarism -> this statement sounds okay when you are teaching elementary school but becomes laughably incoherent when you try to apply it to actual adult life for even a second. like, how many everyday spoken conversations do you think contain plagiarism just because you don't have time to look up exactly what book you read or what video you watched? if plagiarism is a matter of morality then people do immoral things every day just by speaking; everyone's daily interactions are hurting authors and academics every second of every day. at a certain point you have to ask if morality is nothing more than people {{i|believing that not having control over other people's lives harms them}}. there's a terrible similarity between this concept of plagiarism and people getting upset they are being harmed because they don't have control over trans people. I don't like ethics. I'm done with it.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Because plagiarism is making a statement of fact without providing sources (sic), any instance of reading a reference book and forgetting what exactly what the title is and where the book came from causes plagiarism; only people with a record of every book they have read within the time they are likely to remember it or who have every book they read accessible in their house can be moral -> now, to be fair, if we weren't talking about the concept of "plagiarism" and were talking about a unified notion of rules of evidence that applies across law and the sciences, I think this would be a reasonable thing to say — a chain of custody makes for better evidence. but it has always been really strange to me that people have seen this as a moral issue and seen the need to conflate rules of evidence with "stealing". isn't it enough to identify information as good-quality or bad-quality information? what's the big deal with trying to put so much control on every student that probably isn't even brought down on some publishing corporations? 
I feel like "stating an unverifiable fact" and "copying sentences out of a book" should be completely separate things. this is, unfortunately, one of the only good things large language models have done: they've been slowly forcing people to get better models of what plagiarism is because when they aren't human and can't be held accountable for anything and thus [[E:Reality is tyrannical|inherently have more rights than humans will ever have]], people are forced to fall back to guides on "how to identify AI" and actually explain materially why plagiarism creates less useful text rather than giving a moral argument about how a machine they cannot control "should have" done things differently. it would be wonderful to have something other than "AI" doing that instead but so far nothing has really succeeded at it.

I think in some ways Free Software types and this swath of "generic libertarians" is really wired into the concept of business territories and owners and trying to break down the business territories of the "big" or "corporatist" owners. it's comical how although the reasons for it are wrong the conclusions are very close to correct and I would unironically support using a surprisingly large slice of the generic-libertarian content that exists to teach Marxism. it's funny how nothing but the antagonism between all business territories eventually begins to undo capitalism if you give it long enough, while no amount of anarchist ideology ever seems to make much of a difference.

I have to wonder. what would happen if Kropotkinism actually kicked off? wouldn't you just have a population of people that earns tiny amounts, has huge expenses, and basically lives just like gig workers? what if the reason anarchism hasn't been more successful is Amazon beat anarchists to creating 'easy work' of the kind anarchists want but just not in the conditions they want? [https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/02/19/jxer-f19.html] it seems to me like anarchism moves really slow and capitalism moves fast, owning entire [[E:agora (meta-Marxism)|market-boxes]] and communities while anarchists are only talking about those things and before they can meaningfully create them.

{{li|I=S2/LLM/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Community is a hyperstructure -> the claim that "community", mostly as a materialist version of the anarchist model of what "communities" are, is a system that encourages itself to expand further through parts of the system contributing to the overall system. 
I think the description is really apt because you see this perfect 'blockchain quality' where community looks like a shiny wonderful thing you could only want more and more of, but when you get any particular instance of community, such as a newsfeed platform like YouTube or Twitter, the more people add to it the worse it seems to get and the more it turns into this vector for individual capitalists to own an entire "agora" and exploit the whole concept of an economy existing and make money off that, and the more it feels like community itself was a scam from the start. 
Community is a hyperstructure + Hyperstructures are usually harmful = Community is a cancer.

honestly? if getting people to comprehend "hyperstructures" could get rid of blockchains themselves then I'd be all for it 
I feel like this concept is almost more of a cautionary tale than a desirable thing to have though. one of their examples is the general concept of money because of course they have to explain how bitcoin is similar to money. but like, the expansion of money through creating more products and the central government giving loans to corporations to speed up the process isn't necessarily a good thing, it often leads to the destruction of the environment as it's consumed to create materials and factories, or the destruction of culture as products obsolete other products just to chase money and get more money added. this is so bad that when they present language as the second example I'm like.... okay, is language secretly a bad thing that is destroying the world and I just didn't know it was? I have to say though, the advent of large language models really vindicates the concept of hyperstructures, if in a bad way. the more AI that people create the more different AIs can train on each other to the extent they can generate any meaningful inferences or conversation data that human testers approve, and then there will be more AI. so, yeah. the concept of hyperstructures was very successful. it was successful at describing something, but it seems like basically everything it describes is an existential threat to humanity, including The Economy, capitalism, blockchain, AI, and possibly language (??). 
this might be one of the clearest pieces of evidence that anarchism is inherently dangerous because it doesn't actually build into itself the capability to model societies spending a while building something and then leveling off in a neat S-curve because they moved on to entirely different things without redoing the same things over and over again such as repeatedly reinventing game consoles or phones. (a thing Marxism could do with some effort because it inherently understands the concept of historical periods and shifts from one period to another.) despite all the surface rhetoric about "infinite growth" recently it only really understands infinite growth because of its core values of always making everything about "community" and "inclusivity" and never saying no to anybody. so naturally a system of modeling growth itself is one of the first things to pop out of it, which claims to have a limit but in practice when it hits the limit just divides in two and continues to make more and more.

God doesn't exist, God is one big rationalization. so is Christianity really an anarchism?? I'd argue it is. I'd argue that at least as soon as New Testament Christianity appeared the whole thing was really about pushing the concept that seemed nonsensical at that time of getting rid of all rulers and creating a society based only in social bonds connecting people into a society ("love", "brotherhood", "neighbors"), and Christians had to dress up that concept inside the concept of a worldwide empire just to get anybody to believe it when otherwise it would have seemed unbelievable. 
I'd also argue that by capitulating to the class imagery of their time Christians doomed Christianity and turned it into a tool of empire itself as empire noticed that an ideology about empire was better suited to literally arguing one empire was superior to other empires and deserved to be the one to conquer the world. there's not a lot of difference between Christians and Democrats. Christians: we are all united together as under The King. Romans promptly turn the king into Caesar and argue Christianity promotes somewhat-racist empires that take other nations as slaves. Democrats: we are all united together by voting and a list of civil rights. Capitalists promptly make it mandatory for every minority listed in a civil rights act to support Israel and destroy Palestine, and support products made in Cuba while refusing Cuban products on pain of arrest.

this is one of the only models that can explain either separate wing of Liberal-republicanism and Stalin's Marxism and even a Trotskyist republic equally well: the model that republics begin with written laws and laws are the fundamental Ideas that create "nations of ideas". Tories don't follow center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. center-Liberals skirt around Tory laws, Tories call treason. Communists don't respect center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. anarchists or right-Liberals defy Soviet laws, Stalin's government calls treason. Stalin's government defies Trotskyists' desired body of laws, Trotskyists call treason. 
it's all about laws. laws are made by classes, and that's what distinguishes the fundamental character of a body of laws, but actually, all geopolitical conflicts and demographic conflicts deep inside countries start at whether separate groups of people are following each other's internal laws. it's all one big squabble about laws and what laws are inherently good or bad, while that will never have an objective answer because different areas of people hate other people's laws and don't want them. 
this is part of what makes critical-theory so frustrating. as of late it's been picking up talking points that the United States government is totally capable of granting North American tribes rights. but in order to get those "rights" they had to first send people to assimilate to White towns and consent to the overall body of United States laws and agree not to violate any of them, while some of those laws banned the tribal societies they would have been fighting for. it's a bit paradoxical. within the system that boasts all the time about giving people human rights (and also lies to everyone claiming the rights are from birth or 'god-given' despite the fact God doesn't give them to you in Cuba and Cuba requires an invasion to defeat The Regime that's apparently stronger than God himself)

(it really doesn't help that the commentator identified the White supremacist compounds as "terrorist cells". that's a pretty heavy-handed rhetorical term when it comes to giving a particular national government great military power over any city within the entire rest of the world. like, anybody who says the word "terrorist" may as well already be king. Marxist parties are the only halfway exception. but it's still bad.) 
I feel like what's happening is something like, critical theory was one big scam by Liberal-republicanism to convince anarchists to turn against other forms of anarchism — granted, some of which were somewhat harmful, making the deal sound weirdly enticing — so Liberal-republicanism could then turn around and eradicate all anarchism and then be free to take over other countries and conquer the world. just like in those civilization games where you can just build one giant republican country and nuclear war never destroys the world first.

{{li|I=F2/LR|tradition=LR, HM|Q=618}}The purpose of Liberal-republicanism is to transition the world out of racism -> this seems to be the hypothesis advanced by critical theory. that republics actually exist in order to force ethnic groups to be friends. no matter what they've done to each other. this explains how Native American movements have been going mainstream: Liberal-republicanism is having trouble getting people to consent to it any more, so it needs to recruit minorities to advance its agenda of expanding itself over people and telling them what to do under the guise that it's making the world better for minorities. 
...this has to be false, doesn't it? the actual function of the United States has been dividing into two anarchisms that are mortal enemies. no matter how much critical theory says that forcing people to interact and integrate should change consciousness it doesn't seem to happen, and to some degree it only seems to make people more and more resentful and more inclined to kill each other. why it happens is less the presence of ethnic groups together in particular and more the presence of multiple populations that could be politically independent being ruled by "external" political factions that feel like foreign countries. like, it would really seem that Deng Xiaoping Thought has been way more successful than Liberal-republicanism, because having a single unified government actually seems to unify people rather than generating this worsening and worsening cycle of hatred. 
critical theory may be ideology generated directly out of Liberal-republicanism in the most insidious way possible. maybe this is what it's always done. maybe the real foundation of Liberal-republicanism is precisely holding up a set of laws, claiming they're inherently moral, and forcing everyone around, even people who aren't part of the country yet, to obey them or else. that is one of the only good explanations for why Liberal-republicanism has been so eager to back Israel. it doesn't even actually run on morality or care about morality. all it cares about is whether as many people as possible across the world are following an arbitrary set of laws. so the more people think Palestine "isn't following the law", {{em|as it is written}}, the easier it is to justify eliminating Palestine. 
you know. queer rights are a sham. they only exist because people have proved gay people are legal. on this weird metaphysical level where laws already exist before laws actually exist. and that's how laws come to be laws. but it isn't gay people that are oppressed by this Kantian interpretation of laws. it's Palestinians. believing that laws inherently exist and they only need to be approved just legitimizes the structure that makes this illusion possible to believe — global empire. this conception of things shouldn't be true, but when your empire is big enough to bully Cuba it's big enough to make almost anything come true.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=MX onto Ag|Q=618}}Everything starts out prohibited / Everything always begins prohibited / There is no difference between a republic where everything that is not prohibited is allowed and a republic where everything that is not allowed is prohibited; because all prohibitions emerge from the shape of small-scale social graphs and gaps between them, both models function the same way at that scale, and because government is always generated out of smaller scales of society, both logical models functionally model the exact same physical thing (meta-Marxism onto agorism) -> people usually think there is, but that's based on an error in reasoning thinking that legislators are the people who actually decide what's allowed. when you realize that ordinary people are always the ones who decide what's allowed and even oppressive republics have representatives based on what ordinary people want, you realize that actually, it might be the case that every single republic is based on everything not explicitly allowed being prohibited due to the fact that loci of non-aggression are always created on that basis, and the concept of there being a republic where you can do what you want as long as it isn't prohibited is entirely made up.

{{li|I=S2/MX/LR|Q=618}}Liberal-republicanism is not just a bunch of arbitrary utterances spat out of capitalism, and in fact is an entire intricate historical process of its own consisting of particular material objects in particular arrangements attempting to perform particular transitions from one arrangement to another arrangement, much like the internal operation of Trotskyism cannot be reduced to a bunch of spat-out ideas "from the wrong classes" by Stalin's Marxism, nor can the shape of Stalin's Marxism be reduced to a bunch of spat-out ideas "unrelated to Marxist movements" by Trotskyism; the United States is not special because it is the United States and isn't other countries, nor is Liberal-republicanism special because it is somehow "the only correct system", but instead of that, Liberal-republicanism is merely a specific kind of physical process distinguished from other physical processes which uses human individuals to build larger objects; the inner process within Liberal-republicanism fundamentally operates on the physical rules of a material description of blue anarchism, and not on any physical rules of a material description of Bolshevism / The progression of physical structures within Liberal-republicanism evolves in a fundamentally different way than the progression of physical structures inside Bolshevism (generic)

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Agorism is a segregation machine / Liberal-republicanism is a segregation machine / The progression of physical structures within Liberal-republicanism evolves in a fundamentally different way than the progression of physical structures inside Bolshevism; within Liberal-republicanism the structures that develop are loci of non-aggression inside which the particular list of rather specific things recognized to not be aggressive is strictly required to be tolerated by the entire locus but things not included on the list of non-aggressive things are often considered aggressive and worthy of being pushed out of society even if among things they would be compatible with they are not actually aggressive or dangerous and the locus of non-aggression simply fears them; 
the creation of loci of non-aggression is popularly believed to result in fusion of different loci which will locally take away chunk competition from society and replace it with 'chunk cooperation' or 'chunk summation'; 
in reality, the entire concept of loci of non-aggression is so unstable and arbitrary that it easily creates countably separate loci in perpetual competition that evolve into toxically-linked, hostile, or even murderous societies, and the precise transition that occurs is to split a country like the United States into two or more countable nationalities that are as similar as possible and yet as toxically incompatible as possible, which both still believe themselves to be compatible, and spawn further nationalities as people attempt to assemble into [[E:anarchism|a third locus of non-aggression]] to get away from the existing nationalities' toxic relationship; the system loathes inequality and attacks both billionaires and populational borders for breaking the illusion that society is singular and not made of plural pyramids, but as more and more equality is produced, more and more segregation is produced along the separations between loci, and gaps between loci channel deeper and produce more hatred, fear, and anti-social behavior, paradoxically making people nicer and nicer inside loci but completely unaware and incapable of understanding that other people are nice to each other because other people's trajectory of becoming nice was completely different from theirs; 
loci of non-aggression include: towns, families that have not experienced violent child abuse or the murder of a spouse, clusters of employees and owners that haven't committed horrible abuses against each other yet, clusters of tenants the landlord hasn't [[E:landlord rape incidents|literally committed crimes]] against, individual churches, segregated White towns without any gangs, Black towns without any racists, towns without any homeless camps, tiny satellite cities that produce nothing but are not "menaced" by big cities or taxes, individual local-states that come to accurately or falsely believe they've reduced themselves to one Liberal-republican party and no longer worry about the other, clusters of minority subpopulations, the US Bill of Rights, clusters of religions that believe they only have freedom of religion because they all exist together and none of them stopped existing, the overall US empire as it exists in a state of not having wars on its immediate borders, clusters of First World countries that are friendly toward each other but get together to oppress Third-World countries and even more so any Second-World countries that exist as "aggressives"

I wish Trotskyists would just admit that the Trotskyite conspiracy happened. because if they did, they could point to this, and they could say, it doesn't matter if Stalin was defending Stalin's Marxism, the problem is Stalin wrecked Trotskyism, and that's why it had to be defended at all costs. Trotsky wrecking Stalin's Marxism is immaterial if Stalin was trying to build a worse version of Marxism over a better version of Marxism. when Liberal-republicans do that, it's counter-revolutionary, so when Stalin does it, it's also counter-revolutionary, no need to even start arguing about The Bureaucracy yet. meta-Marxists, {{em|you}} go build Stalin's Marxism in another country so it doesn't wreck Trotskyism, not the other way around. and I would say, that's a good point actually. maybe Stalin {{em|did}} accidentally transplant a Marxism meant for much more undeveloped countries to the Soviet Union. and maybe it's technically true that Stalin's Marxism vulgarizes really quickly into Dengism if you aren't watching it closely. is Stalin actually a Maoist? are Stalin and Mao actually Dengists? sometimes I just don't know any more.

I think this was solidly falsified the moment humans invented generative AI. there's been a pretty solid consensus building that generative AI just is Evil and when it exists as an industry some industries are Evil, if that didn't already happen with the oil industry. what anarchists really really don't want to understand is that this discovery has horrifying implications for the philosophical foundations of anarchism. if people can be Good or Evil solely based on what their talents are, you can never guarantee that 'the totality of all non-aggressive activities not forbidden by The State' will ever get along rather than fighting each other and erupting into hierarchy or domination purely because people are determined for one decision to be made rather than another decision and to call that decision Good and the other decision Evil. that is the root of a lot of hierarchy if you ask me. but it's also unavoidable, because who's going to persuade anarchists to just tolerate all the stuff that they feel oppresses them? I think it's more realistic to admit that anarchism can contain domination and hierarchy and the claims it doesn't were lies, and just define anarchism around some other concept than Good and Bad — that includes "domination", "hierarchy", "decency", "respect", "disruption", "empathy", morality, ethics, "enchantment" (which turns into ethics in a couple seconds), "prejudices", and "White culture". the one completely nebulous thing they say that I am genuinely unsure whether they can or can't have is Freedom, because that has hundreds of definitions and I'm still not sure I understand what it is. so, yeah, {{em|maybe}} you can get away with defining anarchism as Freedom-ism and basing it on these long treatises of exactly how Freedom works descriptively with no prescriptive statements about it.

male culture: Digimon Adventure. female culture: MLP gen 4. it's quite obvious what is what with kids' media when you have networks wanting to aim products at apparent differences between boys and girls to try to get more consistent sales, but even when you can point out a 'show for girls' and a 'show for boys' they are not actually that different if they're any good. hence all the bronies, hence that awkward space of women watching anime and trying to ignore the grossly exaggerated female silhouettes because nothing else about the show or game is especially bad. I think you also see this with things aimed at adults but it would be hard to think of an example where you get such a 'nice' region of awkward crossover. {{book|Dragonriders of Pern}} can be argued to be female culture I guess, but it's easy to forget that. then there's like, an argument to be made that {{book|Harry Potter}} is so misogynistic that it's male culture coming out of a woman — if it wasn't enough of an insult to accuse it of being such an 'uncool' book series as to be read by more moms and dads than kids — but it's also just within the range of 'teenage' enough that teenage girls can get obsessed with the male characters. 
so, male culture and female culture are very similar on basic levels. but "queer culture" is something different from either of them. you can really start to identify it the moment you see a furry visual novel with a plot that's "weirdly straight" — where some of the characters are stereotypes, or where the writing is okay but all the characters have totally depressing problems that make you wonder why you're reading a book right now and not just talking to the people around you that are the human equivalent of Twitter feeds, here assuming you also don't like Twitter. when these kinds of things are made "correctly", they have a very different feel. you see people being... idealistic? living in their own world, but not really in an upsetting way. they stop thinking about the outside world where everybody isn't of the same finite cluster of LGBT+ people and the atmosphere becomes very... specific to the people who are there. I want to say "insular" but that's more negative than what I actually mean. 
I think part of what I am saying is that LGBT+ circles tend to generate this consciousness of being a teeny village of people just because they are inherently limited to having only tiny clusters of people available, and because of this they sometimes also start believing that they inherently constitute some kind of "anarchist tribe" that must transition to anarchism because it will never contain enough people to spawn a Liberal-republican nation-state. the way different subpopulations in the United States get so separated really seems to mess with people's heads and cause people to see themselves as entirely separate stateless "nation-states" with separate histories, right down to subconsciously imagining whole trajectories of transition only for their own cluster of people of a particular identity and based on the exact number of people that are in it at the moment. it's funny how identities will take the notion of forms of society comically literally to the point a Marxist would scold them for reading historical materialism too closely, but then they will not even know they're doing it and try to deny that forms of society and social transitions are a thing and just try to tell you everybody needs to transition to anarchism because gay people exist.

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Orange terrain is solid / Orange terrain is stable / Trotskyism is composed of fine-scale structures that are distinguished by their ability to stop parts of society from being overtaken and taken advantage of by The Bureaucracy; these structures may be referred to as "orange structures", although this only labels one specific function of the structures or process they contribute to and is not meant to be exclusive with the category of them being crimson structures / The dictatorship of the proletariat is an unbroken terrain of connected orange structures -> 
so apparently it's only when you look deep into what Trotskyists are claiming The Bureaucracy is that you finally start to understand what it is they're trying to create. they want one basic thing within any particular region, which is the dictatorship of the proletariat; the concept of international permanent revolution can actually be conceptualized as being emergent from this, because anything that keeps continuously defending outwardly red or orange countries from turning strawberry or blue and does appear in multiple nearby countries can link across the country regions so they can defend each other from encroaching bourgeois factions and form a Second World. this makes a lot more sense. the very first few times I read about Trotskyism I took it as this vaguely Idealist proclamation that things [[E:"I believe that everybody" statement|should have happened]] in other countries [[E:Monty Hall problem|that didn't happen]] and there "just should have" been international permanent revolution. but I now see it was more complicated than that. it's less that Trotskyists were upset Trotsky couldn't go to Germany and turn it orange and more that they were upset that the Third International seemingly refused to create a correct model of what happened in Germany, so they thought they had to tirelessly protect any region that really did have the potential to create a dictatorship of the proletariat, wherever it was, to keep The Bureaucracy from getting into it because the parties allied with Stalin were not safe from getting 'infiltrated' and slowly turning strawberry. the aim of trying to hold down a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat and prevent strawberry Marxisms from forming is respectable, given how many strange things strawberry Marxisms do on their best days ('corporations are productive forces', 'socialism is getting rid of poverty', party-approved listicles) and the few actually-awful things they do on their worst days (pre-emptively thinking rude people are reactionaries just because they're rude, battle between strawberry cops and Maoists buried inside resistances). historically speaking strawberry Marxisms are very similar to blue factions in that they slowly restore this dynamic of the most powerful people generating more power and keeping down the weakest people. I wouldn't blame anyone for acting like strawberry Marxisms simply aren't something to be messed with and are more something you want to stop at the root. as long as the people saying that are at least as Marxist as Stalin; anarchists really need to shut up and read enough stuff to learn how to do violet analysis before say anything on the topic of 'power multiplying'. if anarchists knew as much Marxism as the [[E:International Committee of the Fourth International|ICFI]] I would not be anywhere near as mad at them as I am and I would be more tolerant of proposals to create charcoal terrains that are supposed to serve the same function as orange terrains. I was in the beginning, but.... oh boy when anarchism only seems to generate more stupidity every day without ever getting better you quickly get tired of it

Liberal-republicans will most of the time act like a particular republic existing is only natural and dismantling it would be craziness but at other times they'll act like the entire existence of nationalities is a game to them and everyone can just stop being Chinese at any time if they get tired of it. there is this weird anarchist undercurrent to all Liberal-republicanism which you see vaguely come up in theorists like Rousseau. but when you try to point out that it's there, Liberal-republicanism will generally try to deny it and act like all the people that say taxes are arbitrary constructs or they're 'sovereign citizens' are foreign material and weren't created by glitches in Liberal-republican theory itself. the one time people get bold about it and it becomes the most socially acceptable is when it's applied to other countries than the one people are currently in. tell people that the United States is a made-up game and they get upset and try to argue at you for hours that civil rights court cases that will get repealed tomorrow are objective truth, tell people China is a made-up game that can be broken up or remade from scratch and they'll simply nod.

ethics itself is colonial in that without the creation of an empire you can't go on the continuing journey of people becoming 'more and more' ethical. you have to have that slump first where a huge atrocity is committed and then people progressively learn about it and apologize. a world without atrocities genuinely might not need morality or ethics at all. it might be a wholly amoral world. and the fact people are even talking about ethics may signal either that they're defending something awful, or that they aren't as good of people as they believe they are.

there's nothing wrong with people trying to do Marxist breakdowns of the elements or themes that make up popular media. not even if the popular work is superficial "slop". and you know why? the more popular something is the cheaper it gets to buy after a few years once people start donating it to thrift stores. if you manage to take a really popular work, however bad, and turn it into a teaching tool with a well known meaning, you've created really cheap propaganda that you don't need party organizers to distribute, that will keep getting spread around no matter how many party members get caught, and that will be harder to ban because the bourgeoisie created it and it wasn't created by a group of people easy to strategically label as "an invading foreign country". of all the things Western Marxists do, this is actually one of the smartest ones. because if Gramscians go into academia or movie studios and [[E:|take up job slots]], it doesn't make that big an impact on who can actually make decisions in industries or who can strike, but if you manage to change the use of an existing product then you've somewhat undone the ability of the corporations that made it to make decisions about what will be produced and what everyone is and isn't allowed to think before everybody else can.

I think these people could become heroes. and here's why. {{book|Animal Farm}}, being an allegory, was meant to be read as a bit of a metaphor, but vegetarians with no knowledge of Communism took what they knew of the book and interpreted it literally. compared with a lot of methods used in the humanities (in particular in the arts; the situation could be a little better in fields like anthropology), taking things literally is inherently closer to Materialism and thus inherently closer to Marxism. if one were to deliberately analyze {{book|Animal Farm}} as if the animals were literally animals and not the Soviet Union, it would come across as the terribly inhumane and un-humanitarian narrative it really is. I mean, just think about it. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to kill a house cat a lot of people would find that concept disturbing. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to take self-determination away from a group of animals trying to save themselves from quite literally being chopped up and eaten if a population of people had power over them, that concept should be equally disturbing — if somebody wanted to cook and eat Russians just for being Russian almost everybody would consider that a severe human rights violation. and the ending for the Soviet Union was vastly worse than the ending of {{book|Animal Farm}}. the book was way too generous, when the reality was that things went back to the way they were before — if what had been going on before was Russians getting eaten, well, that would be happening again. if that were the universe we lived in you couldn't really blame Russians for going a little crazy and launching wars on neighboring countries; if that is the only way for them to have power and the United States not to have power which is "permitted", of course they're going to take the option where they don't get eaten, no matter how evil that option is. 
Animals kill others to survive. most animals in nature don't experience their survival being threatened constantly; in a normal situation the predator or rival patriarch or matriarch usually walks away at some point if they stand their ground long enough. but nation-states are very different because there's never anywhere to run off to permanently. if a conflict begins and the aggressor has no actual incentive to stop it's going to keep going until somebody starts killing people. it's just going to keep going until wars cull enough people (potentially millions and millions) that "the space to run away in" is at some semblance of being restored. because a society is just a lot of Animals standing together like they were one Animal, and societies threaten each other as wholes, but when a threat refuses to go away, Animals kill. anarchists cannot get away from this. they keep trying to assert that a world with too many people in it having wars "isn't necessary" and "there's no need to apply Malthusianism" but no matter what, their theories cannot [[E:existential materialism|explain what generates]] the actual observed behavior of Russians. the longer anarchists try to assert that indigenous ways of life 'were kinder on the earth' and 'were less violent', the longer real-world populations will attempt to kill millions and millions of people until the world literally has the maximum number of human individuals it did when human populations were mostly tribes. the actual material transition to a world where everyone is predisposed to believe secular animism is utterly horrifying.

{{li|I=S2/PT|Q=618}}It's rational for Russians to start wars and kill people if they will never be granted self-determination on the basis of a system where they try to help every Ukrainian and not start wars -> to correctly parse this proposition you have to understand that what is rational and what is ethical are not the same thing, contrary to what Kant says. 
this also doesn't mean that you can assert that 'getting rid of reason' will solve the problem, given that things that are 'rational' in this sense are rational precisely in the sense that they contain a specific [[E:causal logic (logical model of material causation)|sequence of causations]] and happen whether you want them to or not. 
Imperialism is the actual end of history + ?? = this.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Native Americans are capable of genocide / Inasmuch as indigenous populations are human, they are hypothetically capable of coming up with and practicing [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideologies]] that lead to large populational-scale numbers of people dying because other particular groups of people decide that they should die -> we really need to wake people up to the fact that a genocide can consist of five billion people equally drawn from all ethnic groups as opposed to a billion people of one specific ethnic group or nationality, in terms of whether a particular person's ideology can be ""inherently dominating"" enough to inherently lead to killing ten million people. if anybody in the world gets to keep calling a famine in Ukraine a genocide, then there are scenarios where advocating secular animism could itself be advocating for genocide, because it has the potential to kill orders of magnitude more people than that. if everybody would stop saying that about Ukraine, I might consider dropping this.

{{li|I=S2/A|Q=618}}Stalin's government committed genocide in Ukraine {{em|because}} they killed people using [[E:hierarchy (anarchism)|hierarchy]], and whenever a form of hierarchy is used that leads to a lot of people dying, that form of hierarchy is an [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideology]], and it is morally wrong to allow people to construct that form of hierarchy to any extent and morally right to tear it apart at every scale possible however small as soon as possible -> the best argument I can think of that the famine in Ukraine {{em|was}} a genocide. no, it's {{em|not}} very good. but at least it's logical enough to start analyzing, unlike a lot of things anarchists say. 
this.... is how a lot of people conceptualize the French Revolution, I think. ...oh god, that explains a lot. it even kind of explains where [[E:Menshevism (1900s)|Menshevism]] came from. the logic behind Menshevism is basically one that inherently dominating ideas merely need to be stopped. all Idealism is somewhat similar and there is a big overlap in Idealism between anarchism, Menshevism, Yaroshenkoism, Deng Xiaoping Thought, and Western-Marxism. while mainstream Marxism-Leninism is nearly the only philosophy ever to state that people don't actually decide what ideas to believe, and that they are always simply handed ideas at the populational scale rather than a population actually having a mind of its own and actually being able to think. that's the sense in which BlackPantherism is quite respectable, to say that Black people among other ethnicities get ideas from their current conditions {{em|is}} a Materialist philosophy. one remaining question is whether Trotskyism falls into the trap of Idealist revolution or whether it genuinely is a Materialist revolution. I've always analyzed Trotskyism by taking individual Trotskyists or groups and modeling them through Materialist concepts of revolution, but my conclusions often don't sound much like their conclusions. they always talk like Stalin could have chosen not to do "Stalinism" so I don't know. 
The act of handing money to another individual is in and of itself a hierarchy + Stalin's government killed Ukrainian farmers = this.

{{li|I=S1/A|tradition=A, DX, LR, ES|Q=618}}Idealist revolution / destroy the idea that ... (generic; popular-culture expression of an Idealist campaign to slay [[E:inherently dominating ideology (anarchism)|dominating ideas]]) -> it took me a long time to put this concept into words, but yeah, I think the real problem with anarchism is that it is defining the concept of revolution based on Idealism. there seems to be a whole concept of an Idealist revolution where people think that if you can slay an "inherently dominating idea" that drives a population on a conceptual level, you can change one historical period into another historical period. now, to use some technical language, this is some unscientific SCP-report plotline {{censor|bullshit}}.

{{li|I=S1/A|tradition=|Q=618}}thoughtcrime (anarchism) -> the motif of anarchists banning ideas in order to prevent harmful forms of society from being created whether those forms of society are really actually harmful or not, and punishing people for spreading what are actually neutral ideas. 
you can't deny it, in actually asserting that all bad behavior starts at ideas and all change starts at prohibiting ideas, anarchism comes way closer to doing this than Communism.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}The act of handing money to another individual is in and of itself a hierarchy / The act of handing money to someone is in and of itself a [[E:spatial slot hierarchy (meta-Marxism)|spatial slot hierarchy]] because it is an act of deciding whether someone is good enough to do a task -> this claim would probably sound much stupider if it was coming out of an anarchist, but fortunately "hierarchy" isn't a big hang-up for me as much as a prosaic statement describing what kind of process is happening. 
that said, this is the thing you need to toss at anarchists who claim that hierarchy and expertise are different things. they really aren't. since the start of Liberal-republicanism expertise has generally been the source of almost all hierarchy. 
I feel like anarchists have shifted to saying "domination" largely so that when they mention "hierarchy" they don't sound as stupid. of course, it doesn't really help given that it's become so abstract that it's unclear what on earth it's even referring to.

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618}}X and X's brother / X and X's sister / Trotsky and Trotsky's brother (Animal Farm) / Rock and Rock's brother (Megaman exe) -> the motif of fictional stories taking a historical figure or previous fictional character in another continuity and creating a narrative parallel to them but then unexpectedly adding a sibling who actually does something and changes the story even if in a small way.

{{li|I=S1/HAS/Fy|Q=618}}gender roles in fairy tales -> I just started thinking about this suddenly today because I was trying to think if the concepts of "brother" and "sister" have different connotations in folklore, and then I started thinking about how weirdly often all the more negative characters in fairy tales are female. the wicked stepmother, the witch, maybe the wicked step{{em|sisters}}. but the male characters are often more neutral. kings and princes and medieval artisan type people all just have kind of a neutral presence or sometimes positive. there are some exceptions like 'the fairy godmother' that will be a positive influence. 
I.... don't know what the scope of this entry is because I'm not an expert in the humanities. I think it covers European fairy tales and probably through Eastern Europe into the rest of Asia but I don't really know what the division between "a fairy tale" and "a folktale" is, to me they're kind of the same thing. some people consider "Aladdin" to be broadly in the scope of fairy tales because there is a magic artifact or magic servant character that isn't so different from the fairy godmother. but that extends the geographical range of fairy tales quite a bit. what's the difference between a fairy tale and just a legend that people don't necessarily think is true? I think there's a clear difference between a fairy tale and a "myth" in that myths are religious stories from an ancient time of local gods, and fairy tales are about 'smaller' magical things that sort of just hide themselves in tiny places and cause mischief — "fae" sums up the concept of where fairy tales get their fantastical elements pretty well, you're thinking of a character that is usually pretty small and missable but can also be very powerful, could be the fairy godmother, could be a leprechaun. but I'm pretty confused on the difference between a fairy tale, a folktale, and a legend, because legends can have dragons in them; they don't have to be "historical".

{{li|I=S1/ML|Q=618}}belief (utilization) / believing in (utilizing) / I believe in solving math problems with lambda calculus / I believe in pomodoro timers -> a definition of "belief" which is one of the very few sensible ways to define the phrase "believing in Marxism". 
I think it's arguable that this definition doesn't apply to ideologies like Christianity, or even to a lot of secular systems of ethics; ethics is a potentially wrong descriptive model of reality pretending to be a technique. but, on the bright side, this motif does provide a lot of context for why people like to claim Communism "doesn't work". you could easily say "pomodoro timers don't work!" but if you aren't versed in how people actually use them and the exact conditions where people claim they do work versus what specific kinds of conditions lead them to fail, then you wouldn't necessarily be making a true accusation. at the same time, if you {{em|did}} claim "Pomodoro timers work!" without knowing how to use them, you also might not be making a true claim. that's why the conflict between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism has been so hard to resolve. out of the very limited number of people in the world who knew how to use Marxism at the time, or that do now, not all of those people genuinely understand how it's currently being used. and it's all downhill from there, because as you get further away from them, ordinary people only know less and less. 
you really do learn a lot more about Marxism itself by examining Trotskyist attacks on Marxism than you do by examining a lot of attacks on Marxism inside Liberal-republicanism. and in that, I think they actually have a counter-intuitive effect on consciousness in the grand scheme of things where depending on the specific issue them making errors may be less harmful than them not being there. not {{em|better}} precisely, yet definitely {{em|less bad}}.

{{li|I=S1/IV|Q=618}}so mr. errors wants me to correct my errors -> what the early history of Trotskyism always feels like 
now to be perfectly fair to them, there are reasons this can {{em|apparently}} happen without being an actual mistake — Marxists speak of new forms of structure coming in and getting rid of old contradictions but bringing in new ones. I think this is how a lot of things they say happen to function.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Goku is a bourgeois distortion / Goku is a bourgeois distortion of Buddhism / Goku's character concept is centered around the notion that finding or seeking enlightenment makes you more physically powerful; in the original {{book|Journey to the West}} narrative, this was supposed to be the monkey king's vulgar misunderstanding of Buddhism which ultimately got him sealed under a mountain; within {{book|Dragon Ball}} Goku can be said to represent crude bourgeois materialism as seen in Feuerbach — the major theme quickly established in {{book|Dragon Ball}} is that the world is physical and does what it wants as opposed to what you want it to do, but that this is partly because the world is in some abstract way "modern", and dotted with cities and corporations and most notably the influence of scientific insight and technology; in this sense, Goku is not the {{book|Journey to the West}} character Sun Wukong because while Sun Wukong represents ancient empires, he represents the rise of early capitalism and the ways in which capitalism both correctly and wrongly substituted morality for power going into the hands of those who desire change the hardest and become materially powerful enough to take power and [[E:Edgeworth's dialectic|fight off]] the people they wish would change -> 
this sounds weirdly like I'm on the side of Buddhism over early capitalism. I'm not. I'm just very tired of capitalism acting like it's fully justified to keep power over everything and prevent anything else that would happen after it from forming just because it's better than ancient imperial monarchies. 
if Hegel had known what an "end of history" was, he would have believed that monarchy and feudal orders were the end of history. and now Fukuyama thinks he's not as wrong as Hegel when he does the same thing. honestly... right down to even that thing where you claim a bunch of abstract ideas led to a material system yet were the only possible train of conclusions. capitalist theorists and Kantians are almost exactly just the Hegel of capitalism.

also... funny story, when messing around with writing fiction and trying to throw Snowberg into a dystopia this had caused Valenoern to accidentally reinvent Trotskyism. but that takes a while to explain, and is a story for another day. to keep things short, they really did not know anything about the history of socialism or what Menshevism or Bolshevism were, they just sort of, created a character in the vein of "Emmanuel Goldstein" (that's just an example) from abstract concepts but didn't know that in the case of 1984 that was Trotsky, and so they reinvented Trotskyism. we've had a lot of fun with anticommunist fables and finding Trotsky in them since then.

I wouldn't disagree with this, although... I think there are a few interesting things to note about it. for one, the environment of online videos gives Trotskyists a bizarrely huge advantage because they can all post videos from different countries and make it look like Trotskyism is a lot more omnipresent in any particular country than it really is, as well as like it's a long-standing philosophical tradition (technically not false) which is as rich as mainstream Marxism-Leninism is. online videos make it weirdly easy to "astroturf" the appearance of movements happening more intensely or widely than they actually are.

this proposition is both wonderful and terrible. it's wonderful in that I actually now have a working model of exactly why it is that anarchisms are overall so persistent and refuse to give up: anarchisms are not actually against Hegelianism, but they see {{em|themselves}} as the entire Hegelian dialectic. the concept of Stalin trying to model society as local structures transitioning into other structures? {{em|anarchists believe in that}} but they believe that very process right there must take the form of entire Communities burning each other down to create better Communities. it's terrible in that anarchisms will never realize this. they will never realize what they actually are, and they will always act like "freedom" actually is something rather than just an absence and the (sometimes justified) hatred of things they don't like and want to fight.

Liberal-republican philosophy is hell-bent on the concept that people really can be considered in isolation, which causes all human beings to conceptualize themselves as petty bourgeoisie, or worse, to actively regenerate the petty bourgeoisie. the concept that [[E:tent of freedom poles|people "have human rights" {{em|as individuals}} and then they come together and have individual human rights as individuals {{em|together}}]] is absolutely lethal to a functioning society.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}The "failure" of Wikipedia to provide a reliable source (presumed to be as reliable as grade school texts, not university-level texts) is actually the failure of anarchism, and of a particular kind of named [[E:anarchy (meta-Marxism)|anarchy]] -> I don't know what this particular kind of anarchy is called, but I'll find a name for it eventually. it has something to do with the notion of culture products or information products as open and evolving instead of closed, when their content really should have been closed. (this does not refer to the concept of "open" or "closed" source code, it's a totally different kind of "closed" or "open".) funny enough, the Free Software movement has already figured out how to make Freed things with closed contents — we call them software packages.

{{li|I=S2/Fy/MX|Q=618}}Corporate [[E:art product (economics)|culture products]] are not objects communicated from a director to each audience member, but are in practice generally objects communicated from one fan to another fan; not only is the "artistic vision" of one particular specific individual a ridiculous thing to expect culture products to have, but at the end of the day all corporate culture products are ultimately just pre-made commercial fan fiction -> the way you have to fix the fan fiction problem is so specific. I've had several "solutions" to it that were probably wrong. but I think the crux of it lies here. the most important relationship in the pipeline of culture products is them being passed back and forth between fans. on occasion quite literally when someone hands someone else a Steam code. most of the time a little more figuratively, in the form of let's plays, theory videos, and the construction of alternate timelines. capitalism makes a huge deal out of the sanctity of the corporation for no good reason. ideally what you want is the paid experts completing their task of churning out culture products without a lot of ado about how great or awful the workers are personally for particular actions and decisions, instead they just complete the task quietly and go home, and then you want the fans to be allowed to pass back and forth whatever they want to regardless of whether it has been modified. and you don't want the central party-nation freaking out about the airtight seal between corporation and fans and the fans "wrecking society by doing too much"; that should not be a real offense. instead, if anything, you want the central party simply noticing where the seal is breaking and doing inquiries into whether different kinds of products should be produced. it {{em|might be the case}} hypothetically that the ideal scenario is the seal breaking totally and government not even having to bother re-connecting any of the points of production to formal corporations because there is simply enough stuff that nobody actually has to pay for culture products any more and generally considers them all to cost zero or literally a couple loose coins at a thrift store. 
the last thing you want to see happening (ever) is a "Chinese map fiasco" where people perceive government as a brutal predator that munches on human social activity purely to digest it and start scheming about how to stay out of its mouth because they know everything only gets worse after you fall in. you can never let that happen because the moment it happens the whole of socialist transition will disintegrate. the petty bourgeoisie regenerates in a heartbeat and it happens anywhere and everywhere. you're much more at its mercy than you ever could have realized.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning Malthusianism is genocide / Whenever you choose to say a statement in Malthusianism you have chosen to cause other people to be bigoted {{YouTube|gv4R-hix9wM}} -> no... that isn't how it works. as a framework, statements inside Malthusianism could hypothetically be true without all of it being true, so if those are already true and you say them, you didn't cause them to happen. this is like saying that if you predict a box to contain a dead cat when somebody filled it out of sight then you caused it to contain a dead cat, even if the other options are unrelated to cats, like the other option is the box is empty. overpopulation leading to bad outcomes can hypothetically be the case whether you want it to or not, but the important thing to realize is that that doesn't have any bearing on what the actual bad outcomes are. the bad outcomes might not be anything like the simplistic scenarios in Malthus' essays of overcrowding or 'eating babies'. the bad outcomes might look more like an increase in people randomly murdering each other because everyone increasingly feels like everyone else is threatening their existence and they need to protect their existence because 'all individual existences deserve to be respected' {{em|or else}}; despite what everybody wants nobody will yield to anybody else and so people get furious and kill in order to regain control. if everybody's doing that, you don't have control over it; you can't just say "believing in overpopulation is bad" or "if we don't things will get better" to fix it. because when people really truly believe things "Should" work a certain way, especially if that "Should" is an ethical prescription, they won't listen to anything you say until reality magically fixes itself to be that way. people are just going to get angrier and angrier every single day there are too many people and those people are disorganized and attempt with steadily increasing blind rage to punish all the disorganized people that have not been planned or controlled in any way for not being controlled in any way. there's really no "society", "social-ism", "community" -ing out of that situation, because other people's ethical imperatives are not a social construct — you can only obey whatever the {{censor|fuck}} other people tell you to do or risk them doing violence to you... or kill them, I suppose. ethics is an infamously unyielding form of philosophy. if there existed any form of belief where everybody spontaneously giving it up would actually solve all our problems, then everybody giving up the entire concept of ethics would be it. think about it: every right-Liberal who tries to say that accumulating wealth is good relies on property rights, which rely on ethics. every nazi that tries to say trans people are destroying the United States relies on a right to not have this "intrude" on their lives, which relies on ethics. if everyone really actually got rid of ethics, they wouldn't be able to defend bad things either, because the whole concept that individuals can make "correct choices" that are superior to other choices in creating a future they would be satisfied with would be gone. there would be vastly more incentive to question your previous decisions and deconstruct arbitrary beliefs if ethics did not exist at all. "post-structuralist philosophy"? "prejudices" and "biases" that will never make sense as analytical tools once you stop being the person that wrote the paper? how about we just get rid of ethics and accomplish the same thing way better with way fewer problems. 
I think the thing that bothered me the most about this video is.... the Overshoot Theory video I remember from a while back was also leaning on Native Americans. Overshoot man was like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, overpopulation!}} while these people are like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, no overpopulation!}}. it honestly feels like a non sequitur in both cases. I feel like overpopulation genuinely has nothing to do with whether North American tribes 'have lived more sustainably', positively or negatively. the cases where you'd see overpopulation come from a genuinely different kind of society that operates through entirely different material processes. which means you can't analogize a smaller society to it.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}I'm not here to educate you / It's not my job to educate you (statement that minority groups do not have to explain oppression) -> I don't think you can treat this statement as generally true. funny story, I've been picking up books on Native American history when I go to used book sales, and like, these claim to be educational, but you open them up, and the last one I was reading was treating the tribe in question as very mystical. it was trying to be positive and imply there was nothing wrong with people having a different culture but it overall still ended up presenting things like Rolling Thunder (he was the main topic of the book) had a fundamentally magical way of thinking, that he's almost some kind of wizard with magic occult powers in the way he thinks as opposed to his culture being something that can ever be "normal". I think the book was from 1976 if I remember right, not recently. 
so like, telling people to go educate themselves and implying they can't talk to actual people to learn what their problems are could be very harmful. I suspect that it's old books like these that a lot of anarchists are learning about other groups of people from and effectively where they're getting their anarchism. or that even if that's not literally the case, that you can still study that example to learn about the problems with the thing anarchists are actually doing. 
I think there is like.... a nuance that's totally lost on anarchists about the interaction of individuals or populations. if there's somebody that goes around talking like Rolling Thunder, you can't really just take what he says and present it to other people as his fundamental way of thinking. people in industrial populations are going to take it negatively. there might be one or two people who literally take it as 'backward' and say mean things, but that's not what you need to watch for, the most likely harm you need to keep an eye out for is people softly deciding that tribal populations can't understand modern science and that the way of thinking they have presented is part of their fundamental essence that 'blocks' them from absorbing the understandings people have in industrial society. this is racist, because it puts you into the same rhetorical position as the people who were recently arguing that Black South Africans 'didn't want the farmland taken by Afrikaners because of their culture' and {{em|therefore}} it was okay for European apartheid states to descend in and take whatever they want. I think there's a decent argument to be made that claiming someone like Rolling Thunder has a fundamentally different way of thinking 'than European science' is flat out supporting colonialism and is The Colonizer Attitude, because, just look at its results. 
this leaves open the rather broad question of how exactly you can merge tribal populations' ways of thinking with modern science and the findings of industrial societies. we know it's not optional to do that. we know it's necessary to do it to not essentialize people and treat indigenous people as stupid. we know that anarchists trying to present older and more mystical ways of thinking as 'the natural way of thinking' is not okay because it what it effectively does is allow White people to appropriate indigenous culture for their own benefit but still deny that culture to the actual indigenous people and hand all the power of people to determine themselves, to be able to talk about all topics intelligently as the adults in the room and make sophisticated decisions on various topics and involving several different philosophies, to Europeans. putting yourself in a position where other people will essentialize you to one particular level of ideological development is dangerous. I think it's the anarchists that need to be told this more than the tribal populations; they've been through a lot and I think to some extent they know this. anarchists, on the other hand... I feel like it's vaguely possible that some day in the future, people will talk about anarchists as inherently mystical people and weirdly racialize all anarchists {{em|exactly}} the way they've done with tribes in North or South America.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}History is the progression of generational subcultures -> this is slightly different from the claim that history is the progression of father to son to son or mother to daughter to son to daughter etc., because it is talking about the progression of whole layers of thousands and thousands of people born in the same 5-10 year period, and is not centering itself around individuals or psychoanalysis. it's not psychoanalysis, and instead, it's shifted its entire focus over to art history, the humanities, or the history of an industry.

{{li|I=S2/HAS/MX|Q=618}}History is the progression of successive semi-countable art markets -> I'm a little astounded to find such an Idealist claim and such a Materialist claim in the same podcast right next to each other a sentence apart, but I'll take it. wow. this one is so telling. it accidentally reveals so much about the connection between capitalist theory, the growth of society, and the outward manifestations seen in culture products. 
let's think about this. a 'console generation' forms in order to raise the prices of the products (largely by producing them new), while decreasing the cost of entry. if the discipline is new, it won't be overrun with expensive equipment, stacks and stacks of money poured into expertise, and the prestige of certain brands creating natural monopolies. after a while, all the corporations in a given market have made their money and the products are everywhere such that neither can new corporations make money nor can old ones earn any more. so then the market resets and an entirely new market is created. a bunch of hype goes around to present the new thing as really great although it was created in order for the new products made for it to not have to be very good at first. and apart from video games, this happens for the general concept of mediums and a lot of physical formats. 
honestly. I trust this more than Habermas' conception of history as some kind of progression of morality where what is progress could become entirely subjective; at least you can measure what a sideways progression from one set of events to another {{em|is}}. 
console wars + History is the progression of generational subcultures = this.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}Some Jews don't support Israel {{YouTube|_Q0TxCCuXyU}} -> U.S. people don't know anything but Idealism, the treatment of everything as abstract qualities. so they have to take on "Jews" and "anti-semitism" as abstract concepts. when they do that, it predisposes them to racist understandings of what various ethnic groups "are". so then they bring out the point of "but surely one of them doesn't support Israel" (anti-essentialism) to badly try to prove that Idealism isn't racist.

this became apparent to me as soon as I saw Gramsci talking about a council for the "self-employed". that isn't a red or orange structure, that's a blue or strawberry structure. and those kinds of structures can undo a revolution. but it's also trivial for more of them to be produced through misapplied education or training. if the soviets have full control, it's easy for petty classes to rebel against all the orange soviets and start taking control of the whole country through whatever limited ability they have to assemble together groups of people that outcompete surrounding workers.

I.... have to read this at some point because that sounds like the best one.

{{li|I=S1/DFy/DX|Q=618}}Dengist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was Western-Marxist (strawberry Marxist, Gramscian, Dengist / Deng Xiaoping Thought) -> so, {{book|Attack on Titan}} has a dumb premise. it reads like a campfire horror story told by nazis in very little irony. but it {{em|is}} really funny to imagine some of the same central themes being used in an approximately Marxist work. like, instead of it being a nazi campfire story the titans are trying to scale a "Berlin wall", or penetrate China or North Korea to take them back for Liberal-republicanism, the titans are hiding out on Taiwan, the titans are sealing people into Cuba and not letting {{em|them}} leave. there obviously wouldn't be a focus on the concept of the big antagonist monsters being 'impure' or 'diseased', that element of it probably wouldn't exist. it would just be kaiju trying to break into the country and do something horrifying. it's gotta be a little over the top. it's gotta be about turning them all into kaiju for some nefarious but useful purpose, like, I dunno, the kaiju feed off negativity and if they all turn into kaiju and fight each other the whole population of kaiju becomes stronger. everyone is horrified about the invasion and it brings them all together.

{{li|I=S1/Fy/A|Q=618}}anarchist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was anarchist -> {{em|this}} is why I am having an increasingly hard time telling the difference between Deng Xiaoping Thought and anarchisms. like, once again, anarchism succeeds when you build a wall around it — probably metaphorically — and wait for the outside to tire itself out. I can't tell the difference between Gramscian Eren Yeager and anarchist Eren Yeager. 
oh god when I just go saying ideologies in a sentence of course my brain is going to shout "Trotskyist Eren Yeager". I don't know what that means. I don't know what that means at all. I dunno, like, the enemies are more like Reptilians or Yeerks and they're hiding out in the central government and nobody wants to believe it so the anti-alien squads are like trying to team up across regions? I tried.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Sociality distorts human beings' view of material reality -> anarchists are going to get so upset if you try to argue this at them. they'll try to argue that reality is whatever comes naturally to living things, and different states of natural for each living species must naturally want to go together, blah blah blah. [*] but they're all privileged. they haven't experienced a state of truly being fenced out of society by thousands and millions of people that all simultaneously agree they don't like you (probably without having met you or having much of any idea what they're doing). they especially haven't experienced it owing to the existence of anarchism, because anarchism already selected for people like them. but they should wise up to the fact that anarchism doesn't really pass the veil of ignorance with flying colors. it's quite easy to end up on the wrong side of "community" where you simply have nobody and nothing and also everyone assumes you must be a bad person just because you haven't claimed an exclusive spot in Community that supposedly you only have to be nice to people to get and follow morality though in reality it's much more difficult and complicated and trivial to simply be born wrong and fail to survive the ecological parameters of the 'community-icene'. I think that as a period of biological life the Anthropocene truly began at tribal society, not at industrial society. it was the ability to form entire ecosystems made of nothing but humans that changed things, but {{em|if anarchists are correct}} that the natural state of humans and human psychology is in tribes then all the current destruction of the environment ultimately came from the characteristics of tribes. tribal populations are not wholly innocent for all the horrors of global empire and ecological destruction if at the end of the day we're {{em|all}} still tribes and they're the only ones trying to disclaim that there are bad things about that. really, as crazy as it sounds, they might be accidentally benefiting from a corrupt system that has killed great numbers of people. of course, if humans don't have a seemingly eternal resting state of being in tribes that we have no choice but to return to which in turn implies we are currently tribes in denial and will still be tribes for the next hundred thousand years, then tribal populations carry no blame for what industrial societies have done. 
(* why didn't they say that about workers' states and the healthy state of the Soviet Union versus the very disordered states that occurred at every moment after tearing it apart? they have even less excuse than Trotskyists. Trotskyists wilfully wanting to overwrite another Marxism with their own Marxism is at least logical even if it's terrible.)

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}"Indigenous people" marks a statement as racist / Saying "indigenous people" marks a sentence as containing racial stereotypes {{YouTube|fwecpbB1DPs}}
{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning ethnic groups is racist / Mentioning an ethnic group without mentioning a specific individual marks a sentence as containing potentially-harmful racial stereotypes -> this is what you have to believe for the above statement to be true. like, if "indigenous people" marks a racial stereotype, then saying a more specific group of people like "Inuit" should equally mark a racial stereotype — how does the person you're talking to {{em|know}} that you're giving correct information about all Inuit people and not just saying something false? but if this is true, you couldn't go to Congress and say "Black people" or "Mexican immigrants" for any legitimate purpose without mentioning individuals that supposedly make the example truer. does it actually make statements more accurate to include specific individuals? I feel like it adds nothing but also subtracts nothing. 
this is a really weird criterion for judging whether statements are accurate. I know where it comes from, it comes from people trying to judge everything through positivism and claim that Lived Experiences are a pathway to truth while a lack of Lived Experiences is a pathway to falsity. it's still really weird. it doesn't seem to accomplish the thing it sets out to accomplish at all, and just seems to make all statements said about any group of people more worthy of doubting. "White people have the colonizer attitude"? maybe not!! Ben was doing that, but did you ask Carla?? "Black people experience structural racism"? maybe not!! you didn't mention an individual so in theory you might be racist for even saying that. 
Mentioning ethnic groups is racist + Anti-essentialism is a pathway to truth = Pointing out racism is racist.

{{li|I=S2/ES/ML|Q=618}}Referring to Communists without mentioning a specific individual is unacceptably prejudiced / If mentioning ethnic groups without mentioning a specific individual is racist, which is to imply that talking about groups of people in the abstract rather than as a particular countable number of concrete objects is racist, then mentioning "Communists" or "Cubans" or "people who support Stalin" without naming a specific individual for evaluation is equally prejudiced; every time somebody has said "tankies" or "totalitarians" or "Stalinist(s)" outside a particular context has been an unacceptably prejudiced statement -> this is another loophole in this. god I love it when really bad propositions break open so bad they wrap around to supporting Communism

there's no such thing as "man being born free". man is always part of something, such as family units, tribes, or kingdoms. it has to be this way, or humans wouldn't even be able to reproduce! total freedom would mean that people couldn't even find other people. there would be no babies. but when humans are able to interact and cooperate, it also creates competition, which most obviously results in judges and laws and ultimately results in states. states come from the existence of countable populations, or the existence of two separate conflicting populations. there has to be an active separation from the units people are already part of to even create the state of "man born free". like Thoreau actively going away to his own cabin away from where he started. that movement from A to B is very important and has to be taken into account in the theory. people who think like this seem to think humans are born at the age of 30 out of an egg and they're never babies and they never have babies.

{{li|I=F2/STM|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}Chronic stress warns of nothing / Stress responses used to warn humans of actual danger, but they do not warn humans of anything in the modern world -> you see this everywhere but I think it can be argued it isn't true. a corporate environment actually contains stress because entire groups of humans are smashing into other groups of humans trying to take away each other's existence including all access to shelter and food. that is actually a form of real danger that is brought down onto people constantly. nobody would say that Stalin's government competing against the Left Opposition doesn't bring real danger and real stress. nobody would say that Israelis occupying Palestine doesn't bring real danger and real stress. but everyone has forgotten that simple competition between corporations has the same effects. 
if the United States has the most obesity and diabetes, it also has the most small businesses, meaning it has more businesses than it should. every single person who is being fat-shamed should look people in the eye and threaten them with some kind of action to get rid of capitalists if they don't stop fat shaming. that would be the actual responsible thing to do!

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}Anyone claiming that chronic stress "doesn't serve humans any more" does not have a factual lived experience; they are an unreliable narrator to their own life and observations because they have ignored physical needs, while identifying physical needs that aid survival is one of the primary functions (functional purpose; effect; favorable result; desirable outcome) of emotions and empathy, and by extension of all biographical narratives claiming to be "empathy machines"

I feel like even when Liberal-republicanism is working reasonably well it asks for this impossible perfect situation of every town being a perfect balance of all parties that currently exist, when that just isn't how towns work; you actually have to redraw the districts every election so they contain half one party and half another, or there isn't even actually an election being had. there's also the problem of people moving around for work and throwing off the balance of districts, which is almost inevitably going to happen faster than new maps happen. it's very hard to separate Liberal-republican elections from people who are demographically and anthropologically part of political parties fighting over the right to control all the representatives for a given county or local-state. that's kind of just what Liberal-republicanism {{em|is}}. in concept the only "boring" way to stop it is to stop treating parties as a subject of elections and just say, yeah, no, parties are regional states now containing several US states or containing several cities and you vote for who leads your party but the group of attached capitalists that wins rules the country. if you did it that specific way people would get so mad, but on the other hand it's about how every blue anarchist already sees things, so they'd be mad because the system was honest instead of lying to people. 
culture, culture, culture, media, war of position, Western-Marxism, slow transition. they could have it if nobody voted for president. they could have it if the top capitalists in a region just picked all the members of parliament and all you did was register as part of your favorite group of capitalists. they believe that labor law and anti-discrimination laws actually protect workers, so like, why do we even need to vote? as it is the people with law degrees do all the work already. if any of this war of position {{censor|bullcrap}} actually worked, then the best and most progressive capitalists and academics could just make all the laws; regular people are too stupid and racist to know anything anyway, so why maintain the fiction that regular people's votes count as much as capitalist and academic votes? {{em|of course}} I'm joking. but I'm a little fascinated at the idea of how this would behave if it existed, just morbidly transfixed on these kinds of scenarios like they were horror movies. what would actually happen if nobody voted. would things be exactly the same? would the Gramscians eventually win? it's been like 150 years of the same parties so I really doubt it. but I have to seriously wonder if voting is even real or it even does anything. did we let Black people vote as a purely symbolic gesture knowing it {{em|looks}} like a standard human right that was maliciously withheld but that it actually does nothing and letting people vote would be a more effective way for everyone to continue being racist? what is voting good for? isn't it the case that only votes that are very local actually do anything, and that as for issues that happen at greater scales we simply want them to be decided once and then never have to decide them again, meaning that most voting is a symptom of a country that is fundamentally unfinished? if you ask me, capitalism is a system where a bunch of anthropological chunks of people viciously fight each other for mutually exclusive existence and then when they Win At Existence they legislate all their culture and beliefs onto the area they've won purely based on their own emotions and preferences and it just goes on over and over again as people continually become convinced they're better than each other at arbitrary things they want to control and then they ferociously try to be the only group of people that can write anything about that thing or make that thing and nobody else. it's a mess. there's no tolerance or understanding or acceptance or "reason" in any of it. it's just, capitalism organizes people into chunks, and they're the smallest unit of human life because they form around either anthropological countable culture, the need to cooperate to obtain food from the world and exist, or the ability to produce one specific thing that is selected on by the surrounding social environment, but they're totally disorganized relative to themselves, so... chunks go smash. that's a silly but hilariously complete 3-word summary of my new interpretation of Marxism.

{{li|I=S1/DX|tradition=PT, MZ, DX, LR|Q=618|Q2=618}}congress of estates (motif) -> this is a pattern that seems to come over and over in all archaic republics. back in traditional monarchies the congress of estates would be very blatant and exist fairly literally with three estates in it. then when strawberry Marxisms were created, they sort of left some of the features of monarchy in place that Liberal-republicanism would have broken up, and notably invented the congress of estates all over again with New Democracy. New Democracy started out with allowing the nationalist faction and capitalists to exist, and when it ceased to exist "proper" it morphed into having the CPC, the capitalists, and a layer of mediators between the top layer of theorists and capitalists (which is rather blue; I made that sound like capitalist-theorists for a reason) such as the ancient petition system. China is somewhat ruthless on public officials as a group, which is probably how it's stayed stable, but it does very little to them just for being capitalists. in North America, you see a similar thing pop up with the National Labor Relations Board and the layer of labor lawyers. in terms of classes, you may as well be taking that sea of labor lawyers and sending them to the US Congress. 
lawyers are constantly trying to keep things exactly as they are, prosecuting anything that appears to threaten businesses, and sometimes representing unions and trying to get businesses regulated. but in a way, it's always the lawyers that win, because it's always the lawyers that get to decide what the outcomes of all conflicts are and what is going to be recorded in federal and regional law. lawyers think they've tamed all human conflicts, saying, here is gender law and here is race law and here is labor law. but all the conflicts between lawyers where they think they've won or lost are illusory, because all of it is a proxy war that is only carried out by imagined facsimilies of real things. people say that Communism "only works on paper", but Liberal republics somewhat literally live all their history {{em|on paper}} inside the arguments of appointed lawyers. it's very easy for all these arguments to simply be working off hypothetical models of how groups of people interact with each other that are just plain wrong, and when those models and amendments are wrong, laws and amendments will fail to function or be repealed. critical race theory is like 20% of the way to understanding how bad the problem is. yes, laws about race are often working off wrong models, but so is every other law. quite honestly, to get laws that work you need to abolish the entire concept of Idealist law and make laws which are more following the principles of existential materialism; whenever a law doesn't reflect how people really behave, it has to be replaced with one that has a real understanding of social dynamics and how to control them. I think that's the best way to create transitional laws within a workers' state that is attempting to hold its structure long enough to gradually make laws and government irrelevant. all Idealist laws will eventually be pushed back on by material reality, while a truly Materialist law would be followed so well it would hardly ever have to be enforced.

Hinduism basically has a general concept of what education is baked into it. it tries to compensate for the fact that all people have different levels of education and study different sets of experiences or observations within different populations or regions and they could all understand some things correctly but the people at greater levels of education may be closer to understanding the whole picture. and the concept is tailored to the religion or cluster of religions and the notion that it is possible to get greater knowledge of "spiritual truths", but you know, taking it away from that context and looking at it on its own, it's a great concept. I honestly think it's pretty good. 
I wish people wouldn't use concepts like this to put subjective experience over the material world and potential alternatives like seeing overall populations as physical objects, but, what can you do. in some ways religion "absorbs" or "co-opts" the concept of education and awareness to spread its own message, like with the notion of Māyā or Christ as the true reality, but in other ways, religion just accidentally describes the general process of education and I can't really be against that.

I'm going to show this claim to people and see if anyone can make a solid guess whether you'll reach your goal by your end date. we'll make a small window in which part of the claim can empirically be tested. and we are going to see what actually happens. I don't think anybody alive today {{em|can}} have a solid answer to this right this minute but oh boy, this is one of the most testable claims I've seen in a while if you had 100 years, so it's going to be fun to test the first 10 or so. 
they said the phrase "dropped anywhere in the world"... so are they Trotskyists? oh yeah Alan Woods is on there, this is the IMT. 
so, a workers' state has to be created some time before 2106-2124, we won't say it has to survive the whole time because that wasn't promised, but we will say it has to somehow help stop Israel because that is on the program and is one of the most common issues I've seen the North American "Lefts" talk about. and if this organization splits into one that succeeded, we'll say it succeeded. we have a very clear claim here. 
they really buried Alan Woods and the Fourth International into the deeper pages. so... in my mind, that means the workers' state should consist of at least two countries but has no particular minimum number. if the US, Canada, and Mexico all join a single Fourth International with every country in South America and Europe and Australia that's a smashing success, but it's not required for this claim.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=ES|Q=618|Q2=618}}One of the only times "bourgeois governments" have ever done anything right is when a cluster of capitalists decided having a lot of incompatible disc formats would be a problem and came together to create the CD-ROM standard -> this can potentially be used as a blue-anarchist talking point to argue nothing has gone wrong, but could just as easily be used to explain Marxism and how why the state withers away: if somewhat slowly, decisions simply get {{em|finished}} and then capitalists don't have to keep reinventing them any more, either in industry or in government.

depending on the size of a star and density of matter in it, it will undergo transitions into different stages. this to me is very comparable to the concept of creating existential-materialist models of countries. 
a lot better of an analogy than the slightly joking metaphors of Digimon stages or alchemy. you can actually build this comparison seriously by comparing the mathematical processes in exmat to the mathematical processes in physics.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}The proletariat is set down into place by either well-conceived large corporate structures ([[E:republic of walmart|republics of walmart]]) or petty-bourgeois territory squabbles dominated by vanity and emotionally-explosive subjective flailing over questions with no answer; the proletariat itself will be discovered beneath all the subjective flailing with genuinely no actual stake in any of the squabbles, having been too tired to even give an answer or participate in them, ready to slot into the structure and see the whole thing completed once all the dumb arguments on the upper level have ended just to have the whole thing complete and functioning; the proletariat will be discovered beneath the realization  that almost every actual decision made to decide what culture is and how political issues are resolved have been unimportant to the proletariat because for one reason or another they have all been sites of petty-bourgeois division into named factions or unnecessarily-plural named ideologies or movements, and at times, even divisions between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism or Trotskyism and Trotskyism have been part of this needless division, while the correct analysis of how to unify as many of these divisions together as feasible was what was advantageous to the proletariat -> 
finally, I have a definition of the proletariat specific to violet Marxism emerging from violet Marxism's general understanding of classes. the proletariat exists as thousands or millions of plural proletariats mainly because the petty bourgeoisie is busy dividing up proletarians and constantly fighting itself. the petty bourgeoisie is one of the most annoying classes in history because it's genuinely capable of having a class rule where within the smallest places it rules it doesn't actually conflate its class territories with one specific person, and it can genuinely rule a territory as a cooperating team of people. this messes up {{em|everyone}}. every single prior historical event has involved specific individuals being conflated with class territories, so when petty bourgeois islands show up, they get super confused and start to think class society has been abolished and they must be the final class, but they're not, because the fact their island is divided from another island and makes decisions separate from others is a class! 
it sounds strange at first but once you've had to live with a world full of newsfeeds where a bunch of independent producers are constantly competing against each other to all make decisions you can't affect and it's easier to come into contact with {{em|them}} than any actual friends or social connections, you start to understand it. {{em|that}} has to be prevented at all costs. people will have to get used to the purpose of labor being to make structures that slot into larger structures and which are specifically to serve everyone {{em|but}} them as opposed to them first, or else human existence will be a bunch of petty squabbles forever. and I am so done with that. I'm even done with anarchists doing that, I'm done with all of it.

{{li|I=S2/MX/JC|tradition=|Q=618}}Kim Il-sung is not North Korea / Kim Jong-il is not North Korea / Kim Jong-un is not North Korea -> this is actually true. it's abused by Liberal-republicans and agorist types all the time for the wrong reasons but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea by itself. yes, North Korea is the overall body of North Koreans. and the reason [[E:Juche-socialism and Dengism are the same thing with no actually meaningful differences|Dengism]] is so weirdly effective is that it actually concerns itself with and obsesses over the whole body of Chinese citizens or North Koreans. so, whether Juche-socialism is actually a good thing or not is really complicated. because on one hand, it is entirely capable of understanding that individual North Koreans are not North Korea itself no matter how popular they are, and that center-wing nationalism in North Korea really is about serving all North Koreans as a people, and absolutely not about serving specific individuals. Juche-socialism is — shocker — a republic. it understands the concept that a republic is an anarchy created by either snapping off the king or bringing together a [[E:conglomerate anarchy|stationary combination of heterogeneous elements]], although the mere concept of that makes both blue and charcoal anarchists mad. all Liberal-republicans and anarchists seem to want to believe Liberal-republicanism or anarchism are special and Dengism could not possibly be equally as good as Liberal-republicanism. and they're just plain wrong. Dengism is almost exactly as good as Liberal-republicanism is, and that absolutely blows a gaping hole in everything they say. it exposes both Liberal-republicanism {{em|and}} blue anarchism as petty-bourgeois nonsense which is all about chauvinism to a little isolated island of people just because it's yours. which, yeah, is one of the most ironic things ever in context — an ideology which is explicitly about center-wing nationalism and national unity has exposed United States chauvinism. this is especially damning for charcoal anarchism because it wants to act like it's above everything and the only way to reach the final stage of world civilization, the only way to bridge all the world's gaps and unite everybody, but like, it can't unite the displaced Native Americans who now love anarchism and North Koreans, it can't unite Black people obsessed with anarchism and North Koreans. so basically all anarchism in the United States is petty-bourgeois nonsense. the easy litmus test for what is and isn't that is whether a particular ideology can unite North Koreans with United States people on their own terms without making any of the decisions outside North Korea. an ideology that can do that is viable, and an ideology that cannot do that is garbage. 
which amusingly suggests that some precise fraction of Trotskyism is legitimate and the rest of it is garbage. I think that's just correct, and I still stand by this statement.

I mean, sure, by 1950 there were about three possible Marxisms, mainstream Marxism-Leninism, Trotskyism, and Maoism, and among most of the theorists of any of them it would have been arrogant for any of them to assume their Marxism was the best and only one. it took until at least 1960 or so before there was enough information that it became remotely reasonable to try to pick a best one again.

one of the evident weaknesses of vector models is they can only describe one kind of relationship between tokens rather than actual different kinds of relationships, such as something being understood as a synonym or an antonym or forming from other things joined together instead of breaking apart into other things. this is where the model of vectors or coordinates actually having different numbered Properties or relations that connect them to things really could have shined. you can take away linguistic ambiguity where a word means two different things for different reasons, or even uses of a word that historically were related but aren't any more, and you might be able to decrease the complexity of the model by not using the same coordinate for so many things and needing all those connections on a given coordinate. this isn't what the brain does but there are some times you probably don't want your model to be like the human brain; the same processes that make it easy to encode information efficiently make it easy to bake prejudice into everything and make it impossible to separate prejudice from a bunch of things that are okay.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Consequentialist ethics is an oxymoron / Because ethics always must presuppose that it is possible to judge an action as Good or Bad before it has been performed despite the association of a particular action as Good or Bad always being subjective, ethics is always about intentions and cannot actually become a theory of consequences; to try to claim ethics can be "consequentialist" is a contradiction

{{li|I=S2/Fy|tradition=|Q=618}}Kimba the white lion is an accidental representation of the comprador bourgeoisie -> I don't know why this took so long to hit me. maybe because I still have trouble understanding exactly what the "comprador bourgeoisie" is and how it's any different from the national bourgeoisie. the national bourgeoisie still sold out China to other countries so like, is there even an actual difference?

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Capitalism doesn't promote pure Idealism; it specifically promotes eclectic Materialism, a Materialism only containing just enough Materialism to facilitate people manufacturing and selling products and getting paid -> this is one of the big conclusions of the "Twilight Sparkle has (no) Free Will" discussion. capitalism doesn't remove people from Materialism. it makes a small amount of Materialism mandatory. this is why it is that people become super committed to parts of Materialism seemingly out of nowhere in the middle of an otherwise Idealist worldview, and then sometimes try to deny that they actually believe in Materialism.

(there might also be some worrying conclusions for Palestinians after all the claims that they've done morally wrong things to Israel.) 
gosh this just really makes me wonder what it would be like if Animal Farm was set in Australia and also for no particular reason the characters were furries. it would make it so much more disturbing that people apparently keep them as slaves. but it would make it way easier to tell the story of Cuba where people constantly deny that the argument is over slave plantations and the Confederacy realistically extended over two whole country regions. we've had this whole argument about trying to delete slavery from history books and yet there's one part of it the Confederacy solidly won that nobody even talks about.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Friendship and freedom are fundamentally different things — freedom is typically conceptualized as the capacity to move to a different space within an overall phase space of choices, but this is not the same thing as friendship because friendship is the maintenance of one particular option despite it not being the "optimal" choice, making friendship and freedom contradictory processes assuming an agorist definition of what freedom is -> it's that old problem of "is Twilight Sparkle free if she is forever shaped by her connection with Rainbow Dash". I think the correct answer is that friendship or a strong relationship is its own thing and it is not blue. I don't know what color friendship actually is, I couldn't begin to guess that right now. but I really suspect that the way agorism has colonized social relationships and turned them into markets is an illusion.

{{li|I=F2/W|tradition=|Q=618}}Human demographics are themselves the proletariat; people are the proletariat because they're Black or lesbian while not being White -> no. that's an improperly classless definition of what classes are. (I do think there are [[E:molecularization (meta-Marxism)|proper classless definitions of classes]], but they aren't this.) a human demographic is a somewhat arbitrary group of people {{em|containing classes}}. so you're dangerously close to creating an eclectic Marxism the moment you say this. 
the worst thing is that it's not just Marcuse that says this, I've seen "real" Marxists say this. 
I think one possible cause of this is bourgeois models of reality penetrating deep through society, and in particular the agorist model of society penetrating deep down to the smallest layers, because small capitalist ideology is actually the most popular capitalist ideology now. Animal Farm 2026 literally promoted small businesses in a newspaper! and they thought this would be inspiring as opposed to hilarious in its transparency. yeah, I think there is a pervasive model that on the larger scale societies consist of capitalism but on the smaller scale societies consist of what is claimed to be "community" but what is in fact agorism, and people silently believe that ethnic groups themselves are made of market mechanisms and the breaking down of racist barriers occurs because market mechanisms break them down. this model seems like it would be amenable to Trotskyism because it contains the notion of capitalism inevitably shattering nation-states but it is actually a terrible trap where people will cling onto agorism and then act like it's the very definition of humanity itself and Trotskyists can't come in. honestly. I think agorism needs to be smashed before the world can make any progress. it's inside "Libertarianism". it's the basis of social platforms and all the complaints they bring out about "algorithms". it created Marcuseanism and got everybody mad about civil rights because they began to create a weird loop where talking about progress prevented progress. it might as well be the root of all evil. it's bizarre how often it comes up and

{{li|I=F2/HM/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism / Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism because it presents a picture of the entire industrial world unifying onto a shared body of laws (a Trotskyist socioeconomy and corresponding party structure; a Trotskyist "constitution" enshrining socialist transition), which is conceptually similar to the entire industrial world unifying onto the same shared body of moral values -> I love this statement because logically it should be true. logically speaking there should be no errors here. but historically it absolutely has not been true. nobody who believes in the moral vanguard model has been on board with realizing Trotskyism in their own country, they're always anticommunists, so historically they've been the most likely to tolerate Deng Xiaoping states. there was approximately a decade where you could get them to tolerate Stalin's Marxism specifically because it had a border around it and they would never have to accept it for the rest of time. 
it's quite a contradiction that Habermasians hate Communism, but like, you can get them to be pro- Soviet Union and pro-Stalin on a segregationist line of argument. they don't want to be changed. it's less important for them to expand their own morals and laws over other countries than it is that fundamentally you can't force {{em|them}} to change. so they claim to be about social change but fundamentally what they want is for things to stay the same as long as they subjectively like those things. it's hilariously accurate in unintended ways when agorist types try to frame Freedom as "subjectivity" — oh, really, so you're free when the evaluation of what is good or bad for society is completely subjective? it seems like when they speak of moral truth values they're just using formal logic to launder their preconceptions. how do we know that a purported crime "is" anything? you can say that "colonialism" is bad and that "anti-capitalists are against colonialism" but if you can't define what colonialism is and where it comes from (trust me, there is not a single answer, various different "The Lefts" are still arguing about that) then what does that statement even mean, and how does it have the power to stop anyone from doing anything? what does defining a moral truth value and affixing it to an event that happened actually get you in that context?

{{li|I=F2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Plagiarism is stating the population of England without context / Plagiarism is making a non-obvious statement of fact without providing sources; this is to imply that plagiarism is defined as having a belief which is materially accurate (true) but not justified / Remembering a fact is plagiarism -> this statement sounds okay when you are teaching elementary school but becomes laughably incoherent when you try to apply it to actual adult life for even a second. like, how many everyday spoken conversations do you think contain plagiarism just because you don't have time to look up exactly what book you read or what video you watched? if plagiarism is a matter of morality then people do immoral things every day just by speaking; everyone's daily interactions are hurting authors and academics every second of every day. at a certain point you have to ask if morality is nothing more than people {{i|believing that not having control over other people's lives harms them}}. there's a terrible similarity between this concept of plagiarism and people getting upset they are being harmed because they don't have control over trans people. I don't like ethics. I'm done with it.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Because plagiarism is making a statement of fact without providing sources (sic), any instance of reading a reference book and forgetting what exactly what the title is and where the book came from causes plagiarism; only people with a record of every book they have read within the time they are likely to remember it or who have every book they read accessible in their house can be moral -> now, to be fair, if we weren't talking about the concept of "plagiarism" and were talking about a unified notion of rules of evidence that applies across law and the sciences, I think this would be a reasonable thing to say — a chain of custody makes for better evidence. but it has always been really strange to me that people have seen this as a moral issue and seen the need to conflate rules of evidence with "stealing". isn't it enough to identify information as good-quality or bad-quality information? what's the big deal with trying to put so much control on every student that probably isn't even brought down on some publishing corporations? 
I feel like "stating an unverifiable fact" and "copying sentences out of a book" should be completely separate things. this is, unfortunately, one of the only good things large language models have done: they've been slowly forcing people to get better models of what plagiarism is because when they aren't human and can't be held accountable for anything and thus [[E:Reality is tyrannical|inherently have more rights than humans will ever have]], people are forced to fall back to guides on "how to identify AI" and actually explain materially why plagiarism creates less useful text rather than giving a moral argument about how a machine they cannot control "should have" done things differently. it would be wonderful to have something other than "AI" doing that instead but so far nothing has really succeeded at it.

I think in some ways Free Software types and this swath of "generic libertarians" is really wired into the concept of business territories and owners and trying to break down the business territories of the "big" or "corporatist" owners. it's comical how although the reasons for it are wrong the conclusions are very close to correct and I would unironically support using a surprisingly large slice of the generic-libertarian content that exists to teach Marxism. it's funny how nothing but the antagonism between all business territories eventually begins to undo capitalism if you give it long enough, while no amount of anarchist ideology ever seems to make much of a difference.

I think the description is really apt because you see this perfect 'blockchain quality' where community looks like a shiny wonderful thing you could only want more and more of, but when you get any particular instance of community, such as a newsfeed platform like YouTube or Twitter, the more people add to it the worse it seems to get and the more it turns into this vector for individual capitalists to own an entire "agora" and exploit the whole concept of an economy existing and make money off that, and the more it feels like community itself was a scam from the start. 
Community is a hyperstructure + Hyperstructures are usually harmful = Community is a cancer.

{{li|I=S2/LLM/A|tradition=|Q=618}}Hyperstructures are usually harmful -> this is an anarchist or agorist claim more than it is my claim but I wouldn't totally oppose it.

honestly? if getting people to comprehend "hyperstructures" could get rid of blockchains themselves then I'd be all for it 
I feel like this concept is almost more of a cautionary tale than a desirable thing to have though. one of their examples is the general concept of money because of course they have to explain how bitcoin is similar to money. but like, the expansion of money through creating more products and the central government giving loans to corporations to speed up the process isn't necessarily a good thing, it often leads to the destruction of the environment as it's consumed to create materials and factories, or the destruction of culture as products obsolete other products just to chase money and get more money added. this is so bad that when they present language as the second example I'm like.... okay, is language secretly a bad thing that is destroying the world and I just didn't know it was? I have to say though, the advent of large language models really vindicates the concept of hyperstructures, if in a bad way. the more AI that people create the more different AIs can train on each other to the extent they can generate any meaningful inferences or conversation data that human testers approve, and then there will be more AI. so, yeah. the concept of hyperstructures was very successful. it was successful at describing something, but it seems like basically everything it describes is an existential threat to humanity, including The Economy, capitalism, blockchain, AI, and possibly language (??). 
this might be one of the clearest pieces of evidence that anarchism is inherently dangerous because it doesn't actually build into itself the capability to model societies spending a while building something and then leveling off in a neat S-curve because they moved on to entirely different things without redoing the same things over and over again such as repeatedly reinventing game consoles or phones. (a thing Marxism could do with some effort because it inherently understands the concept of historical periods and shifts from one period to another.) despite all the surface rhetoric about "infinite growth" recently it only really understands infinite growth because of its core values of always making everything about "community" and "inclusivity" and never saying no to anybody. so naturally a system of modeling growth itself is one of the first things to pop out of it, which claims to have a limit but in practice when it hits the limit just divides in two and continues to make more and more.

I'd argue that at least as soon as New Testament Christianity appeared the whole thing was really about pushing the concept that seemed nonsensical at that time of getting rid of all rulers and creating a society based only in social bonds connecting people into a society ("love", "brotherhood", "neighbors"), and Christians had to dress up that concept inside the concept of a worldwide empire just to get anybody to believe it when otherwise it would have seemed unbelievable. 
I'd also argue that by capitulating to the class imagery of their time Christians doomed Christianity and turned it into a tool of empire itself as empire noticed that an ideology about empire was better suited to literally arguing one empire was superior to other empires and deserved to be the one to conquer the world. there's not a lot of difference between Christians and Democrats. Christians: we are all united together as under The King. Romans promptly turn the king into Caesar and argue Christianity promotes somewhat-racist empires that take other nations as slaves. Democrats: we are all united together by voting and a list of civil rights. Capitalists promptly make it mandatory for every minority listed in a civil rights act to support Israel and destroy Palestine, and support products made in Cuba while refusing Cuban products on pain of arrest.

this is one of the only models that can explain either separate wing of Liberal-republicanism and Stalin's Marxism and even a Trotskyist republic equally well: the model that republics begin with written laws and laws are the fundamental Ideas that create "nations of ideas". Tories don't follow center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. center-Liberals skirt around Tory laws, Tories call treason. Communists don't respect center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. anarchists or right-Liberals defy Soviet laws, Stalin's government calls treason. Stalin's government defies Trotskyists' desired body of laws, Trotskyists call treason. 
it's all about laws. laws are made by classes, and that's what distinguishes the fundamental character of a body of laws, but actually, all geopolitical conflicts and demographic conflicts deep inside countries start at whether separate groups of people are following each other's internal laws. it's all one big squabble about laws and what laws are inherently good or bad, while that will never have an objective answer because different areas of people hate other people's laws and don't want them. 
this is part of what makes critical-theory so frustrating. as of late it's been picking up talking points that the United States government is totally capable of granting North American tribes rights. but in order to get those "rights" they had to first send people to assimilate to White towns and consent to the overall body of United States laws and agree not to violate any of them, while some of those laws banned the tribal societies they would have been fighting for. it's a bit paradoxical. within the system that boasts all the time about giving people human rights (and also lies to everyone claiming the rights are from birth or 'god-given' despite the fact God doesn't give them to you in Cuba and Cuba requires an invasion to defeat The Regime that's apparently stronger than God himself)

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Dengism can defeat God (power scaling) / Deng Xiaoping states are stronger than God / If human rights are granted to people by God when they are born, but the United States needs to invade Cuba to ensure that people have God-given rights, then the Cuban government is strong enough to stop God himself; this is to imply that the United States is proportionally stronger than God by two [[E:feat (power scaling)|feats]] because the United States is stronger than the thing that defeated God but is not God / The U.S. can defeat God (sense)

(it really doesn't help that the commentator identified the White supremacist compounds as "terrorist cells". that's a pretty heavy-handed rhetorical term when it comes to giving a particular national government great military power over any city within the entire rest of the world. like, anybody who says the word "terrorist" may as well already be king. Marxist parties are the only halfway exception. but it's still bad.) 
I feel like what's happening is something like, critical theory was one big scam by Liberal-republicanism to convince anarchists to turn against other forms of anarchism — granted, some of which were somewhat harmful, making the deal sound weirdly enticing — so Liberal-republicanism could then turn around and eradicate all anarchism and then be free to take over other countries and conquer the world. just like in those civilization games where you can just build one giant republican country and nuclear war never destroys the world first.

{{li|I=F2/LR|tradition=LR, HM|Q=618}}The purpose of Liberal-republicanism is to transition the world out of racism -> this seems to be the hypothesis advanced by critical theory. that republics actually exist in order to force ethnic groups to be friends. no matter what they've done to each other. this explains how Native American movements have been going mainstream: Liberal-republicanism is having trouble getting people to consent to it any more, so it needs to recruit minorities to advance its agenda of expanding itself over people and telling them what to do under the guise that it's making the world better for minorities. 
...this has to be false, doesn't it? the actual function of the United States has been dividing into two anarchisms that are mortal enemies. no matter how much critical theory says that forcing people to interact and integrate should change consciousness it doesn't seem to happen, and to some degree it only seems to make people more and more resentful and more inclined to kill each other. why it happens is less the presence of ethnic groups together in particular and more the presence of multiple populations that could be politically independent being ruled by "external" political factions that feel like foreign countries. like, it would really seem that Deng Xiaoping Thought has been way more successful than Liberal-republicanism, because having a single unified government actually seems to unify people rather than generating this worsening and worsening cycle of hatred. 
critical theory may be ideology generated directly out of Liberal-republicanism in the most insidious way possible. maybe this is what it's always done. maybe the real foundation of Liberal-republicanism is precisely holding up a set of laws, claiming they're inherently moral, and forcing everyone around, even people who aren't part of the country yet, to obey them or else. that is one of the only good explanations for why Liberal-republicanism has been so eager to back Israel. it doesn't even actually run on morality or care about morality. all it cares about is whether as many people as possible across the world are following an arbitrary set of laws. so the more people think Palestine "isn't following the law", {{em|as it is written}}, the easier it is to justify eliminating Palestine. 
you know. queer rights are a sham. they only exist because people have proved gay people are legal. on this weird metaphysical level where laws already exist before laws actually exist. and that's how laws come to be laws. but it isn't gay people that are oppressed by this Kantian interpretation of laws. it's Palestinians. believing that laws inherently exist and they only need to be approved just legitimizes the structure that makes this illusion possible to believe — global empire. this conception of things shouldn't be true, but when your empire is big enough to bully Cuba it's big enough to make almost anything come true.

the creation of loci of non-aggression is popularly believed to result in fusion of different loci which will locally take away chunk competition from society and replace it with 'chunk cooperation' or 'chunk summation'; 
in reality, the entire concept of loci of non-aggression is so unstable and arbitrary that it easily creates countably separate loci in perpetual competition that evolve into toxically-linked, hostile, or even murderous societies, and the precise transition that occurs is to split a country like the United States into two or more countable nationalities that are as similar as possible and yet as toxically incompatible as possible, which both still believe themselves to be compatible, and spawn further nationalities as people attempt to assemble into [[E:anarchism|a third locus of non-aggression]] to get away from the existing nationalities' toxic relationship; the system loathes inequality and attacks both billionaires and populational borders for breaking the illusion that society is singular and not made of plural pyramids, but as more and more equality is produced, more and more segregation is produced along the separations between loci, and gaps between loci channel deeper and produce more hatred, fear, and anti-social behavior, paradoxically making people nicer and nicer inside loci but completely unaware and incapable of understanding that other people are nice to each other because other people's trajectory of becoming nice was completely different from theirs; 
loci of non-aggression include: towns, families that have not experienced violent child abuse or the murder of a spouse, clusters of employees and owners that haven't committed horrible abuses against each other yet, clusters of tenants the landlord hasn't [[E:landlord rape incidents|literally committed crimes]] against, individual churches, segregated White towns without any gangs, Black towns without any racists, towns without any homeless camps, tiny satellite cities that produce nothing but are not "menaced" by big cities or taxes, individual local-states that come to accurately or falsely believe they've reduced themselves to one Liberal-republican party and no longer worry about the other, clusters of minority subpopulations, the US Bill of Rights, clusters of religions that believe they only have freedom of religion because they all exist together and none of them stopped existing, the overall US empire as it exists in a state of not having wars on its immediate borders, clusters of First World countries that are friendly toward each other but get together to oppress Third-World countries and even more so any Second-World countries that exist as "aggressives"

Trotsky wrecking Stalin's Marxism is immaterial if Stalin was trying to build a worse version of Marxism over a better version of Marxism. when Liberal-republicans do that, it's counter-revolutionary, so when Stalin does it, it's also counter-revolutionary, no need to even start arguing about The Bureaucracy yet. meta-Marxists, {{em|you}} go build Stalin's Marxism in another country so it doesn't wreck Trotskyism, not the other way around. and I would say, that's a good point actually. maybe Stalin {{em|did}} accidentally transplant a Marxism meant for much more undeveloped countries to the Soviet Union. and maybe it's technically true that Stalin's Marxism vulgarizes really quickly into Dengism if you aren't watching it closely. is Stalin actually a Maoist? are Stalin and Mao actually Dengists? sometimes I just don't know any more.

I think this was solidly falsified the moment humans invented generative AI. there's been a pretty solid consensus building that generative AI just is Evil and when it exists as an industry some industries are Evil, if that didn't already happen with the oil industry. what anarchists really really don't want to understand is that this discovery has horrifying implications for the philosophical foundations of anarchism. if people can be Good or Evil solely based on what their talents are, you can never guarantee that 'the totality of all non-aggressive activities not forbidden by The State' will ever get along rather than fighting each other and erupting into hierarchy or domination purely because people are determined for one decision to be made rather than another decision and to call that decision Good and the other decision Evil. that is the root of a lot of hierarchy if you ask me. but it's also unavoidable, because who's going to persuade anarchists to just tolerate all the stuff that they feel oppresses them? I think it's more realistic to admit that anarchism can contain domination and hierarchy and the claims it doesn't were lies, and just define anarchism around some other concept than Good and Bad — that includes "domination", "hierarchy", "decency", "respect", "disruption", "empathy", morality, ethics, "enchantment" (which turns into ethics in a couple seconds), "prejudices", and "White culture". the one completely nebulous thing they say that I am genuinely unsure whether they can or can't have is Freedom, because that has hundreds of definitions and I'm still not sure I understand what it is. so, yeah, {{em|maybe}} you can get away with defining anarchism as Freedom-ism and basing it on these long treatises of exactly how Freedom works descriptively with no prescriptive statements about it.

{{li|I=S2/Fy|tradition=|Q=618}}"Male culture" and "female culture" are more or less the same but "queer culture" and "non-queer culture" are different / In terms of the arts, "male culture" and "female culture" are more or less the same thing in all contexts except among the craziest groups of proto-fascist Tories <s>[I promise to revise that on the Ontology: page]</s>, but "queer culture" and "non-queer culture" are actually different things to a greater extent than "U.S. culture" versus "Japanese culture" or "U.S. culture" versus "British culture"; national population does not affect culture products as greatly as the new and special forms of interaction and description of selves and world that take place within the particular kinds of semi-countable social groups that take part in "queer culture"; this is to imply but not state that "queer culture" carries its own worldview and political faction distinct from Liberal-republican politics -> 
male culture: Digimon Adventure. female culture: MLP gen 4. it's quite obvious what is what with kids' media when you have networks wanting to aim products at apparent differences between boys and girls to try to get more consistent sales, but even when you can point out a 'show for girls' and a 'show for boys' they are not actually that different if they're any good. hence all the bronies, hence that awkward space of women watching anime and trying to ignore the grossly exaggerated female silhouettes because nothing else about the show or game is especially bad. I think you also see this with things aimed at adults but it would be hard to think of an example where you get such a 'nice' region of awkward crossover. {{book|Dragonriders of Pern}} can be argued to be female culture I guess, but it's easy to forget that. then there's like, an argument to be made that {{book|Harry Potter}} is so misogynistic that it's male culture coming out of a woman — if it wasn't enough of an insult to accuse it of being such an 'uncool' book series as to be read by more moms and dads than kids — but it's also just within the range of 'teenage' enough that teenage girls can get obsessed with the male characters. 
so, male culture and female culture are very similar on basic levels. but "queer culture" is something different from either of them. you can really start to identify it the moment you see a furry visual novel with a plot that's "weirdly straight" — where some of the characters are stereotypes, or where the writing is okay but all the characters have totally depressing problems that make you wonder why you're reading a book right now and not just talking to the people around you that are the human equivalent of Twitter feeds, here assuming you also don't like Twitter. when these kinds of things are made "correctly", they have a very different feel. you see people being... idealistic? living in their own world, but not really in an upsetting way. they stop thinking about the outside world where everybody isn't of the same finite cluster of LGBT+ people and the atmosphere becomes very... specific to the people who are there. I want to say "insular" but that's more negative than what I actually mean. 
I think part of what I am saying is that LGBT+ circles tend to generate this consciousness of being a teeny village of people just because they are inherently limited to having only tiny clusters of people available, and because of this they sometimes also start believing that they inherently constitute some kind of "anarchist tribe" that must transition to anarchism because it will never contain enough people to spawn a Liberal-republican nation-state. the way different subpopulations in the United States get so separated really seems to mess with people's heads and cause people to see themselves as entirely separate stateless "nation-states" with separate histories, right down to subconsciously imagining whole trajectories of transition only for their own cluster of people of a particular identity and based on the exact number of people that are in it at the moment. it's funny how identities will take the notion of forms of society comically literally to the point a Marxist would scold them for reading historical materialism too closely, but then they will not even know they're doing it and try to deny that forms of society and social transitions are a thing and just try to tell you everybody needs to transition to anarchism because gay people exist.

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Orange terrain is solid / Orange terrain is stable / Trotskyism is composed of fine-scale structures that are distinguished by their ability to stop parts of society from being overtaken and taken advantage of by The Bureaucracy; these structures may be referred to as "orange structures", although this only labels one specific function of the structures or process they contribute to and is not meant to be exclusive with the category of them being crimson structures / The dictatorship of the proletariat is an unbroken terrain of connected orange structures -> 
so apparently it's only when you look deep into what Trotskyists are claiming The Bureaucracy is that you finally start to understand what it is they're trying to create. they want one basic thing within any particular region, which is the dictatorship of the proletariat; the concept of international permanent revolution can actually be conceptualized as being emergent from this, because anything that keeps continuously defending outwardly red or orange countries from turning strawberry or blue and does appear in multiple nearby countries can link across the country regions so they can defend each other from encroaching bourgeois factions and form a Second World. this makes a lot more sense. the very first few times I read about Trotskyism I took it as this vaguely Idealist proclamation that things [[E:"I believe that everybody" statement|should have happened]] in other countries [[E:Monty Hall problem|that didn't happen]] and there "just should have" been international permanent revolution. but I now see it was more complicated than that. it's less that Trotskyists were upset Trotsky couldn't go to Germany and turn it orange and more that they were upset that the Third International seemingly refused to create a correct model of what happened in Germany, so they thought they had to tirelessly protect any region that really did have the potential to create a dictatorship of the proletariat, wherever it was, to keep The Bureaucracy from getting into it because the parties allied with Stalin were not safe from getting 'infiltrated' and slowly turning strawberry. the aim of trying to hold down a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat and prevent strawberry Marxisms from forming is respectable, given how many strange things strawberry Marxisms do on their best days ('corporations are productive forces', 'socialism is getting rid of poverty', party-approved listicles) and the few actually-awful things they do on their worst days (pre-emptively thinking rude people are reactionaries just because they're rude, battle between strawberry cops and Maoists buried inside resistances). historically speaking strawberry Marxisms are very similar to blue factions in that they slowly restore this dynamic of the most powerful people generating more power and keeping down the weakest people. I wouldn't blame anyone for acting like strawberry Marxisms simply aren't something to be messed with and are more something you want to stop at the root. as long as the people saying that are at least as Marxist as Stalin; anarchists really need to shut up and read enough stuff to learn how to do violet analysis before say anything on the topic of 'power multiplying'. if anarchists knew as much Marxism as the [[E:International Committee of the Fourth International|ICFI]] I would not be anywhere near as mad at them as I am and I would be more tolerant of proposals to create charcoal terrains that are supposed to serve the same function as orange terrains.

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Historically, Trotskyism has always been a "poly-" Marxism and there has never been a molecularized definition of Trotskyism (or any definition) which does not expect {{em|the process inside}} a particular country region to spill to the edge of the country effectively enough to end up creating connected blocs or federations of countries; the process of abolishing "owned country territories" and ruling classes along country borders and the process of defeating other versions of Marxism are not necessarily the direct causes of the "poly-" shape as much as consequences of it, and in fact, Trotskyism having a "poly-" shape is easily explained by processes inside each country region individually, namely a molecularized process of forming a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat which if successful joins multiple countries into a single potentially contiguous Second World region

Liberal-republicans will most of the time act like a particular republic existing is only natural and dismantling it would be craziness but at other times they'll act like the entire existence of nationalities is a game to them and everyone can just stop being Chinese at any time if they get tired of it. there is this weird anarchist undercurrent to all Liberal-republicanism which you see vaguely come up in theorists like Rousseau. but when you try to point out that it's there, Liberal-republicanism will generally try to deny it and act like all the people that say taxes are arbitrary constructs or they're 'sovereign citizens' are foreign material and weren't created by glitches in Liberal-republican theory itself. the one time people get bold about it and it becomes the most socially acceptable is when it's applied to other countries than the one people are currently in. tell people that the United States is a made-up game and they get upset and try to argue at you for hours that civil rights court cases that will get repealed tomorrow are objective truth, tell people China is a made-up game that can be broken up or remade from scratch and they'll simply nod.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Empire is always regenerating / Primitive accumulation keeps happening / Primitive accumulation is always happening -> otherwise it's hard to explain the Cold War and the way the overall concept has continued on and on more like a freezer that first set itself up and then continually circulated heat out.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Ethics is the shovel dream of primitive accumulation -> think about it. most 'fitting actions' anarchists want you to do require people to have wealth first, or privilege as a whole society over other societies. create pieces of a 'community' for fun? you have to have all the money and privilege to have learned to do it correctly so your output isn't trash, or everyone will make fun of you and maybe call you immoral, potentially including the anarchists. distribute goods to people of questionable origin? you have to be White so you don't get immediately shot, and somebody first had to besiege Third World countries and make them have exactly the right government and level of wealth to both produce well and pay nothing in order for there to be enough abundance to be at the level where anarchists can claim 'distributing it' is the only problem. 
ethics itself is colonial in that without the creation of an empire you can't go on the continuing journey of people becoming 'more and more' ethical. you have to have that slump first where a huge atrocity is committed and then people progressively learn about it and apologize. a world without atrocities genuinely might not need morality or ethics at all. it might be a wholly amoral world. and the fact people are even talking about ethics may signal either that they're defending something awful, or that they aren't as good of people as they believe they are. 
why is it that anarchists always want to imagine everything perfect but it never occurs to them that a world in an original perfect state might not even have ethics.

what if people signed up to a police department and became cops and then they burned down a billionaire's building? would they even get fired? what if a cop assassinated the president? would everything still go on the same as it was? what if a cop went to an immigrant prison and busted the place open and let them out? what if a cop distributed a bunch of illegal copies of a movie? what if a cop hid in a mascot costume and killed several kids at a pizza restaurant? what if a cop killed every single other cop in the state? what if a cop lied under oath? what if a cop shredded every single election ballot, and when there was another attempt to have an election, it happened again? what if a cop cut power to a hospital? what if a cop disrupted the mail? what if a cop somehow confiscated people's tax money and spent it so the government couldn't have it? what if a cop made a statement glorifying Vladimir Putin and Russia invading Ukraine? what if a police department went on strike for Palestine? is that literally the only thing a cop can get fired for? if every cop everywhere went on strike for Palestine would the United States have to abolish the police?

there's nothing wrong with people trying to do Marxist breakdowns of the elements or themes that make up popular media. not even if the popular work is superficial "slop". and you know why? the more popular something is the cheaper it gets to buy after a few years once people start donating it to thrift stores. if you manage to take a really popular work, however bad, and turn it into a teaching tool with a well known meaning, you've created really cheap propaganda that you don't need party organizers to distribute, that will keep getting spread around no matter how many party members get caught, and that will be harder to ban because the bourgeoisie created it and it wasn't created by a group of people easy to strategically label as "an invading foreign country". of all the things Western Marxists do, this is actually one of the smartest ones. because if Gramscians go into academia or movie studios and [[E:|take up job slots]], it doesn't make that big an impact on who can actually make decisions in industries or who can strike, but if you manage to change the use of an existing product then you've somewhat undone the ability of the corporations that made it to make decisions about what will be produced and what everyone is and isn't allowed to think before everybody else can.

these might include: Trotskyists getting expelled from the CPSU was psychologically traumatic or at least not predicted by their theoretical models, people continue to found Trotskyist parties because they identify with the psychological trauma of early Trotskyism and pick it up and advocate about it as a sort of generational trauma they feel is unresolved and waiting for justice, incompatibility between Trotskyist factions and mainstream Marxist-Leninist factions for various reasons created and still creates physical antagonisms between the parties leading them to want to form separate "countries" or civilizations (that last one is easily phrased in terms of dialectical materialism and has no need for a single 'inciting incident').

I found it a lot easier to analyze their claims once they came out with an LLM and like, I was finally able to make that thing behave like the only Trotskyist that didn't lie for a few minutes at a time (before it started blatantly lying again and going on about 'the Stalinist bureaucracy').

I think these people could become heroes. and here's why. {{book|Animal Farm}}, being an allegory, was meant to be read as a bit of a metaphor, but vegetarians with no knowledge of Communism took what they knew of the book and interpreted it literally. compared with a lot of methods used in the humanities (in particular in the arts; the situation could be a little better in fields like anthropology), taking things literally is inherently closer to Materialism and thus inherently closer to Marxism. if one were to deliberately analyze {{book|Animal Farm}} as if the animals were literally animals and not the Soviet Union, it would come across as the terribly inhumane and un-humanitarian narrative it really is. I mean, just think about it. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to kill a house cat a lot of people would find that concept disturbing. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to take self-determination away from a group of animals trying to save themselves from quite literally being chopped up and eaten if a population of people had power over them, that concept should be equally disturbing — if somebody wanted to cook and eat Russians just for being Russian almost everybody would consider that a severe human rights violation. and the ending for the Soviet Union was vastly worse than the ending of {{book|Animal Farm}}. the book was way too generous, when the reality was that things went back to the way they were before — if what had been going on before was Russians getting eaten, well, that would be happening again. if that were the universe we lived in you couldn't really blame Russians for going a little crazy and launching wars on neighboring countries; if that is the only way for them to have power and the United States not to have power which is "permitted", of course they're going to take the option where they don't get eaten, no matter how evil that option is. 
Animals kill others to survive. most animals in nature don't experience their survival being threatened constantly; in a normal situation the predator or rival patriarch or matriarch usually walks away at some point if they stand their ground long enough. but nation-states are very different because there's never anywhere to run off to permanently. if a conflict begins and the aggressor has no actual incentive to stop it's going to keep going until somebody starts killing people. it's just going to keep going until wars cull enough people (potentially millions and millions) that "the space to run away in" is at some semblance of being restored. because a society is just a lot of Animals standing together like they were one Animal, and societies threaten each other as wholes, but when a threat refuses to go away, Animals kill. anarchists cannot get away from this. they keep trying to assert that a world with too many people in it having wars "isn't necessary" and "there's no need to apply Malthusianism" but no matter what, their theories cannot [[E:existential materialism|explain what generates]] the actual observed behavior of Russians. the longer anarchists try to assert that indigenous ways of life 'were kinder on the earth' and 'were less violent', the longer real-world populations will attempt to kill millions and millions of people until the world literally has the maximum number of human individuals it did when human populations were mostly tribes. the actual material transition to a world where everyone is predisposed to believe secular animism is utterly horrifying.

{{li|I=S2/PT|Q=618}}It's rational for Russians to start wars and kill people if they will never be granted self-determination on the basis of a system where they try to help every Ukrainian and not start wars -> to correctly parse this proposition you have to understand that what is rational and what is ethical are not the same thing, contrary to what Kant says. 
this also doesn't mean that you can assert that 'getting rid of reason' will solve the problem, given that things that are 'rational' in this sense are rational precisely in the sense that they contain a specific [[E:causal logic (logical model of material causation)|sequence of causations]] and happen whether you want them to or not.

{{li|I=S2/A|Q=618}}Stalin's government committed genocide in Ukraine {{em|because}} they killed people using [[E:hierarchy (anarchism)|hierarchy]], and whenever a form of hierarchy is used that leads to a lot of people dying, that form of hierarchy is an [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideology]], and it is morally wrong to allow people to construct that form of hierarchy to any extent and morally right to tear it apart at every scale possible however small as soon as possible -> the best argument I can think of that the famine in Ukraine {{em|was}} a genocide. no, it's {{em|not}} very good. but at least it's logical enough to start analyzing, unlike a lot of things anarchists say. 
this.... is how a lot of people conceptualize the French Revolution, I think. ...oh god, that explains a lot. it even kind of explains where [[E:Menshevism (1900s)|Menshevism]] came from. the logic behind Menshevism is basically one that inherently dominating ideas merely need to be stopped. all Idealism is somewhat similar and there is a big overlap in Idealism between anarchism, Menshevism, Yaroshenkoism, Deng Xiaoping Thought, and Western-Marxism. while mainstream Marxism-Leninism is nearly the only philosophy ever to state that people don't actually decide what ideas to believe, and that they are always simply handed ideas at the populational scale rather than a population actually having a mind of its own and actually being able to think. that's the sense in which BlackPantherism is quite respectable, to say that Black people among other ethnicities get ideas from their current conditions {{em|is}} a Materialist philosophy. one remaining question is whether Trotskyism falls into the trap of Idealist revolution or whether it genuinely is a Materialist revolution. I've always analyzed Trotskyism by taking individual Trotskyists or groups and modeling them through Materialist concepts of revolution, but my conclusions often don't sound much like their conclusions. they always talk like Stalin could have chosen not to do "Stalinism" so I don't know.

that said, this is the thing you need to toss at anarchists who claim that hierarchy and expertise are different things. they really aren't. since the start of Liberal-republicanism expertise has generally been the source of almost all hierarchy. 
I feel like anarchists have shifted to saying "domination" largely so that when they mention "hierarchy" they don't sound as stupid. of course, it doesn't really help given that it's become so abstract that it's unclear what on earth it's even referring to.

I think it covers European fairy tales and probably through Eastern Europe into the rest of Asia but I don't really know what the division between "a fairy tale" and "a folktale" is, to me they're kind of the same thing. some people consider "Aladdin" to be broadly in the scope of fairy tales because there is a magic artifact or magic servant character that isn't so different from the fairy godmother. but that extends the geographical range of fairy tales quite a bit. what's the difference between a fairy tale and just a legend that people don't necessarily think is true? I think there's a clear difference between a fairy tale and a "myth" in that myths are religious stories from an ancient time of local gods, and fairy tales are about 'smaller' magical things that sort of just hide themselves in tiny places and cause mischief — "fae" sums up the concept of where fairy tales get their fantastical elements pretty well, you're thinking of a character that is usually pretty small and missable but can also be very powerful, could be the fairy godmother, could be a leprechaun. but I'm pretty confused on the difference between a fairy tale, a folktale, and a legend, because legends can have dragons in them; they don't have to be "historical".

{{li|I=S1/ML|Q=618}}belief (utilization) / believing in (utilizing) / I believe in solving math problems with lambda calculus / I believe in pomodoro timers -> a definition of "belief" which is one of the very few sensible ways to define the phrase "believing in Marxism". 
I think it's arguable that this definition doesn't apply to ideologies like Christianity, or even to a lot of secular systems of ethics; ethics is a potentially wrong descriptive model of reality pretending to be a technique. but, on the bright side, this motif does provide a lot of context for why people like to claim Communism "doesn't work". you could easily say "pomodoro timers don't work!" but if you aren't versed in how people actually use them and the exact conditions where people claim they do work versus what specific kinds of conditions lead them to fail, then you wouldn't necessarily be making a true accusation. at the same time, if you {{em|did}} claim "Pomodoro timers work!" without knowing how to use them, you also might not be making a true claim. that's why the conflict between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism has been so hard to resolve. out of the very limited number of people in the world who knew how to use Marxism at the time, or that do now, not all of those people genuinely understand how it's currently being used. and it's all downhill from there, because as you get further away from them, ordinary people only know less and less. 
you really do learn a lot more about Marxism itself by examining Trotskyist attacks on Marxism than you do by examining a lot of attacks on Marxism inside Liberal-republicanism. and in that, I think they actually have a counter-intuitive effect on consciousness in the grand scheme of things where depending on the specific issue them making errors may be less harmful than them not being there. not {{em|better}} precisely, yet definitely {{em|less bad}}.

{{li|I=S1/IV|Q=618}}so mr. errors wants me to correct my errors -> what the early history of Trotskyism always feels like 
now to be perfectly fair to them, there are reasons this can {{em|apparently}} happen without being an actual mistake — Marxists speak of new forms of structure coming in and getting rid of old contradictions but bringing in new ones. I think this is how a lot of things they say happen to function.

sidenote: the pictures you get when you search {{i|ténébreux}} are so funny, you get like a dude with a cloak, you get {{censor|fucking}} Ezio or Boromir. fantasy stories are very good at portraying this concept apparently. one of the only "modern" stories I can think of off the top of my head that goes there is when Ace Attorney introduced Godot. whether anyone thinks he's attractive I have no idea but he absolutely is trying way too hard to have a mysterious overcast disposition.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Goku is a bourgeois distortion / Goku is a bourgeois distortion of Buddhism / Goku's character concept is centered around the notion that finding or seeking enlightenment makes you more physically powerful; in the original {{book|Journey to the West}} narrative, this was supposed to be the monkey king's vulgar misunderstanding of Buddhism which ultimately got him sealed under a mountain; within {{book|Dragon Ball}} Goku can be said to represent crude bourgeois materialism as seen in Feuerbach — the major theme quickly established in {{book|Dragon Ball}} is that the world is physical and does what it wants as opposed to what you want it to do, but that this is partly because the world is in some abstract way "modern", and dotted with cities and corporations and most notably the influence of scientific insight and technology; in this sense, Goku is not the {{book|Journey to the West}} character Sun Wukong because while Sun Wukong represents ancient empires, he represents the rise of early capitalism and the ways in which capitalism both correctly and wrongly substituted morality for power going into the hands of those who desire change the hardest and become materially powerful enough to take power and [[E:Edgeworth's dialectic|fight off]] the people they wish would change -> 
this sounds weirdly like I'm on the side of Buddhism over early capitalism. I'm not. I'm just very tired of capitalism acting like it's fully justified to keep power over everything and prevent anything else that would happen after it from forming just because it's better than ancient imperial monarchies. 
if Hegel had known what an "end of history" was, he would have believed that monarchy and feudal orders were the end of history. and now Fukuyama thinks he's not as wrong as Hegel when he does the same thing. honestly... right down to even that thing where you claim a bunch of abstract ideas led to a material system yet were the only possible train of conclusions. capitalist theorists and Kantians are almost exactly just the Hegel of capitalism.

also... funny story, when messing around with writing fiction and trying to throw Snowberg into a dystopia this had caused Valenoern to accidentally reinvent Trotskyism. but that takes a while to explain, and is a story for another day. to keep things short, they really did not know anything about the history of socialism or what Menshevism or Bolshevism were, they just sort of, created a character in the vein of "Emmanuel Goldstein" (that's just an example) from abstract concepts but didn't know that in the case of 1984 that was Trotsky, and so they reinvented Trotskyism. we've had a lot of fun with anticommunist fables and finding Trotsky in them since then.

{{li|I=S1/MX/MD|class=field_mdem field_14quarters|Q=618}}vermilion international / scarlet international / vermilion Marxism (as Communist International) -> the motif of a Communist international that combines mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism to ultimately form some kind of single global era of socialism.

{{li|I=S2/ML|tradition=ML, IV|Q=618}}Videos are the new leaflets (booklets; pamphlets; etc) {{YouTube|bKq-iip4LXs}} / Videos have replaced leaflets -> I remember this coming up in videos on multiple YouTube channels but I don't remember which videos right now 
I wouldn't disagree with this, although... I think there are a few interesting things to note about it. for one, the environment of online videos gives Trotskyists a bizarrely huge advantage because they can all post videos from different countries and make it look like Trotskyism is a lot more omnipresent in any particular country than it really is, as well as like it's a long-standing philosophical tradition (technically not false) which is as rich as mainstream Marxism-Leninism is. online videos make it weirdly easy to "astroturf" the appearance of movements happening more intensely or widely than they actually are.

{{li|I=S2/MW|Q=618}}Propositions have four words / Statements have four words; the specific count of four words only applies to the English language / Propositions in German or Japanese should have some maximum number of characters -> this rule emerged informally as I repeatedly tried to cram really long propositions into a few words that would fit nicely into a data table and be easy to remember. three words was often too few and six was often too many but four was about right most of the time. now that it's been going a while, I like it. it's funny how it happens to mirror the long-standing practice of a lot of Chinese sayings, usually idioms, being expressed in four syllables. I've apparently cracked the problem of four word idioms for English without trying to. 
also... I watched this one video that was purposefully making a constructed language where it was impossible for individual words to hold meaning and only an entire sentence could mean something, because the sentence was a hash of a bunch of numbered concepts lined up or something like that. that's almost a real thing with drastically abbreviated propositions — the four words together mean something and each word may mean something specifically next to one of the others but the individual words cease to mean anything by themselves.

this proposition is both wonderful and terrible. it's wonderful in that I actually now have a working model of exactly why it is that anarchisms are overall so persistent and refuse to give up: anarchisms are not actually against Hegelianism, but they see {{em|themselves}} as the entire Hegelian dialectic. the concept of Stalin trying to model society as local structures transitioning into other structures? {{em|anarchists believe in that}} but they believe that very process right there must take the form of entire Communities burning each other down to create better Communities. it's terrible in that anarchisms will never realize this. they will never realize what they actually are, and they will always act like "freedom" actually is something rather than just an absence and the (sometimes justified) hatred of things they don't like and want to fight.

Liberal-republican philosophy is hell-bent on the concept that people really can be considered in isolation, which causes all human beings to conceptualize themselves as petty bourgeoisie, or worse, to actively regenerate the petty bourgeoisie. the concept that [[E:tent of freedom poles|people "have human rights" {{em|as individuals}} and then they come together and have individual human rights as individuals {{em|together}}]] is absolutely lethal to a functioning society.

I've had several "solutions" to it that were probably wrong. but I think the crux of it lies here. the most important relationship in the pipeline of culture products is them being passed back and forth between fans. on occasion quite literally when someone hands someone else a Steam code. most of the time a little more figuratively, in the form of let's plays, theory videos, and the construction of alternate timelines. capitalism makes a huge deal out of the sanctity of the corporation for no good reason. ideally what you want is the paid experts completing their task of churning out culture products without a lot of ado about how great or awful the workers are personally for particular actions and decisions, instead they just complete the task quietly and go home, and then you want the fans to be allowed to pass back and forth whatever they want to regardless of whether it has been modified. and you don't want the central party-nation freaking out about the airtight seal between corporation and fans and the fans "wrecking society by doing too much"; that should not be a real offense. instead, if anything, you want the central party simply noticing where the seal is breaking and doing inquiries into whether different kinds of products should be produced. it {{em|might be the case}} hypothetically that the ideal scenario is the seal breaking totally and government not even having to bother re-connecting any of the points of production to formal corporations because there is simply enough stuff that nobody actually has to pay for culture products any more and generally considers them all to cost zero or literally a couple loose coins at a thrift store. 
the last thing you want to see happening (ever) is a "Chinese map fiasco" where people perceive government as a brutal predator that munches on human social activity purely to digest it and start scheming about how to stay out of its mouth because they know everything only gets worse after you fall in. you can never let that happen because the moment it happens the whole of socialist transition will disintegrate. the petty bourgeoisie regenerates in a heartbeat and it happens anywhere and everywhere. you're much more at its mercy than you ever could have realized.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning Malthusianism is genocide / Whenever you choose to say a statement in Malthusianism you have chosen to cause other people to be bigoted {{YouTube|gv4R-hix9wM}} -> no... that isn't how it works. as a framework, statements inside Malthusianism could hypothetically be true without all of it being true, so if those are already true and you say them, you didn't cause them to happen. this is like saying that if you predict a box to contain a dead cat when somebody filled it out of sight then you caused it to contain a dead cat, even if the other options are unrelated to cats, like the other option is the box is empty. overpopulation leading to bad outcomes can hypothetically be the case whether you want it to or not, but the important thing to realize is that that doesn't have any bearing on what the actual bad outcomes are. the bad outcomes might not be anything like the simplistic scenarios in Malthus' essays of overcrowding or 'eating babies'. the bad outcomes might look more like an increase in people randomly murdering each other because everyone increasingly feels like everyone else is threatening their existence and they need to protect their existence because 'all individual existences deserve to be respected' {{em|or else}}; despite what everybody wants nobody will yield to anybody else and so people get furious and kill in order to regain control. if everybody's doing that, you don't have control over it; you can't just say "believing in overpopulation is bad" or "if we don't things will get better" to fix it. because when people really truly believe things "Should" work a certain way, especially if that "Should" is an ethical prescription, they won't listen to anything you say until reality magically fixes itself to be that way. people are just going to get angrier and angrier every single day there are too many people and those people are disorganized and attempt with steadily increasing blind rage to punish all the disorganized people that have not been planned or controlled in any way for not being controlled in any way. there's really no "society", "social-ism", "community" -ing out of that situation, because other people's ethical imperatives are not a social construct — you can only obey whatever the {{censor|fuck}} other people tell you to do or risk them doing violence to you... or kill them, I suppose. ethics is an infamously unyielding form of philosophy. if there existed any form of belief where everybody spontaneously giving it up would actually solve all our problems, then everybody giving up the entire concept of ethics would be it. think about it: every right-Liberal who tries to say that accumulating wealth is good relies on property rights, which rely on ethics. every nazi that tries to say trans people are destroying the United States relies on a right to not have this "intrude" on their lives, which relies on ethics. if everyone really actually got rid of ethics, they wouldn't be able to defend bad things either, because the whole concept that individuals can make "correct choices" that are superior to other choices in creating a future they would be satisfied with would be gone. there would be vastly more incentive to question your previous decisions and deconstruct arbitrary beliefs if ethics did not exist at all. "post-structuralist philosophy"? "prejudices" and "biases" that will never make sense as analytical tools once you stop being the person that wrote the paper? how about we just get rid of ethics and accomplish the same thing way better with way fewer problems. 
I think the thing that bothered me the most about this video is.... the Overshoot Theory video I remember from a while back was also leaning on Native Americans. Overshoot man was like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, overpopulation!}} while these people are like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, no overpopulation!}}. it honestly feels like a non sequitur in both cases. I feel like overpopulation genuinely has nothing to do with whether North American tribes 'have lived more sustainably', positively or negatively. the cases where you'd see overpopulation come from a genuinely different kind of society that operates through entirely different material processes. which means you can't analogize a smaller society to it.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}I'm not here to educate you / It's not my job to educate you (statement that minority groups do not have to explain oppression) -> I don't think you can treat this statement as generally true. funny story, I've been picking up books on Native American history when I go to used book sales, and like, these claim to be educational, but you open them up, and the last one I was reading was treating the tribe in question as very mystical. it was trying to be positive and imply there was nothing wrong with people having a different culture but it overall still ended up presenting things like Rolling Thunder (he was the main topic of the book) had a fundamentally magical way of thinking, that he's almost some kind of wizard with magic occult powers in the way he thinks as opposed to his culture being something that can ever be "normal". I think the book was from 1976 if I remember right, not recently. 
so like, telling people to go educate themselves and implying they can't talk to actual people to learn what their problems are could be very harmful. I suspect that it's old books like these that a lot of anarchists are learning about other groups of people from and effectively where they're getting their anarchism. or that even if that's not literally the case, that you can still study that example to learn about the problems with the thing anarchists are actually doing. 
I think there is like.... a nuance that's totally lost on anarchists about the interaction of individuals or populations. if there's somebody that goes around talking like Rolling Thunder, you can't really just take what he says and present it to other people as his fundamental way of thinking. people in industrial populations are going to take it negatively. there might be one or two people who literally take it as 'backward' and say mean things, but that's not what you need to watch for, the most likely harm you need to keep an eye out for is people softly deciding that tribal populations can't understand modern science and that the way of thinking they have presented is part of their fundamental essence that 'blocks' them from absorbing the understandings people have in industrial society. this is racist, because it puts you into the same rhetorical position as the people who were recently arguing that Black South Africans 'didn't want the farmland taken by Afrikaners because of their culture' and {{em|therefore}} it was okay for European apartheid states to descend in and take whatever they want. I think there's a decent argument to be made that claiming someone like Rolling Thunder has a fundamentally different way of thinking 'than European science' is flat out supporting colonialism and is The Colonizer Attitude, because, just look at its results. 
this leaves open the rather broad question of how exactly you can merge tribal populations' ways of thinking with modern science and the findings of industrial societies. we know it's not optional to do that. we know it's necessary to do it to not essentialize people and treat indigenous people as stupid. we know that anarchists trying to present older and more mystical ways of thinking as 'the natural way of thinking' is not okay because it what it effectively does is allow White people to appropriate indigenous culture for their own benefit but still deny that culture to the actual indigenous people and hand all the power of people to determine themselves, to be able to talk about all topics intelligently as the adults in the room and make sophisticated decisions on various topics and involving several different philosophies, to Europeans. putting yourself in a position where other people will essentialize you to one particular level of ideological development is dangerous. I think it's the anarchists that need to be told this more than the tribal populations; they've been through a lot and I think to some extent they know this. anarchists, on the other hand... I feel like it's vaguely possible that some day in the future, people will talk about anarchists as inherently mystical people and weirdly racialize all anarchists {{em|exactly}} the way they've done with tribes in North or South America.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}History is the progression of generational subcultures -> this is slightly different from the claim that history is the progression of father to son to son or mother to daughter to son to daughter etc., because it is talking about the progression of whole layers of thousands and thousands of people born in the same 5-10 year period, and is not centering itself around individuals or psychoanalysis. it's not psychoanalysis, and instead, it's shifted its entire focus over to art history, the humanities, or the history of an industry.

{{li|I=S2/HAS/MX|Q=618}}History is the progression of successive semi-countable art markets -> I'm a little astounded to find such an Idealist claim and such a Materialist claim in the same podcast right next to each other a sentence apart, but I'll take it. wow. this one is so telling. it accidentally reveals so much about the connection between capitalist theory, the growth of society, and the outward manifestations seen in culture products. 
let's think about this. a 'console generation' forms in order to raise the prices of the products (largely by producing them new), while decreasing the cost of entry. if the discipline is new, it won't be overrun with expensive equipment, stacks and stacks of money poured into expertise, and the prestige of certain brands creating natural monopolies. after a while, all the corporations in a given market have made their money and the products are everywhere such that neither can new corporations make money nor can old ones earn any more. so then the market resets and an entirely new market is created. a bunch of hype goes around to present the new thing as really great although it was created in order for the new products made for it to not have to be very good at first. and apart from video games, this happens for the general concept of mediums and a lot of physical formats. 
honestly. I trust this more than Habermas' conception of history as some kind of progression of morality where what is progress could become entirely subjective; at least you can measure what a sideways progression from one set of events to another {{em|is}}. 
console wars + History is the progression of generational subcultures = this.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}Some Jews don't support Israel {{YouTube|_Q0TxCCuXyU}} -> U.S. people don't know anything but Idealism, the treatment of everything as abstract qualities. so they have to take on "Jews" and "anti-semitism" as abstract concepts. when they do that, it predisposes them to racist understandings of what various ethnic groups "are". so then they bring out the point of "but surely one of them doesn't support Israel" (anti-essentialism) to badly try to prove that Idealism isn't racist.

this became apparent to me as soon as I saw Gramsci talking about a council for the "self-employed". that isn't a red or orange structure, that's a blue or strawberry structure. and those kinds of structures can undo a revolution. but it's also trivial for more of them to be produced through misapplied education or training. if the soviets have full control, it's easy for petty classes to rebel against all the orange soviets and start taking control of the whole country through whatever limited ability they have to assemble together groups of people that outcompete surrounding workers.

I think that as a period of biological life the Anthropocene truly began at tribal society, not at industrial society. it was the ability to form entire ecosystems made of nothing but humans that changed things, but {{em|if anarchists are correct}} that the natural state of humans and human psychology is in tribes then all the current destruction of the environment ultimately came from the characteristics of tribes. tribal populations are not wholly innocent for all the horrors of global empire and ecological destruction if at the end of the day we're {{em|all}} still tribes and they're the only ones trying to disclaim that there are bad things about that. really, as crazy as it sounds, they might be accidentally benefiting from a corrupt system that has killed great numbers of people. of course, if humans don't have a seemingly eternal resting state of being in tribes that we have no choice but to return to which in turn implies we are currently tribes in denial and will still be tribes for the next hundred thousand years, then tribal populations carry no blame for what industrial societies have done.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning ethnic groups is racist / Mentioning an ethnic group without mentioning a specific individual marks a sentence as containing potentially-harmful racial stereotypes -> this is what you have to believe for the above statement to be true. like, if "indigenous people" marks a racial stereotype, then saying a more specific group of people like "Inuit" should equally mark a racial stereotype — how does the person you're talking to {{em|know}} that you're giving correct information about all Inuit people and not just saying something false? but if this is true, you couldn't go to Congress and say "Black people" or "Mexican immigrants" for any legitimate purpose without mentioning individuals that supposedly make the example truer. does it actually make statements more accurate to include specific individuals? I feel like it adds nothing but also subtracts nothing. 
this is a really weird criterion for judging whether statements are accurate. I know where it comes from, it comes from people trying to judge everything through positivism and claim that Lived Experiences are a pathway to truth while a lack of Lived Experiences is a pathway to falsity. it's still really weird. it doesn't seem to accomplish the thing it sets out to accomplish at all, and just seems to make all statements said about any group of people more worthy of doubting. "White people have the colonizer attitude"? maybe not!! Ben was doing that, but did you ask Carla?? "Black people experience structural racism"? maybe not!! you didn't mention an individual so in theory you might be racist for even saying that. 
Mentioning ethnic groups is racist + Anti-essentialism is a pathway to truth = Pointing out racism is racist.

{{li|I=S2/ES/ML|Q=618}}Referring to Communists without mentioning a specific individual is unacceptably prejudiced / If mentioning ethnic groups without mentioning a specific individual is racist, which is to imply that talking about groups of people in the abstract rather than as a particular countable number of concrete objects is racist, then mentioning "Communists" or "Cubans" or "people who support Stalin" without naming a specific individual for evaluation is equally prejudiced; every time somebody has said "tankies" or "totalitarians" or "Stalinist(s)" outside a particular context has been an unacceptably prejudiced statement -> this is another loophole in this. god I love it when really bad propositions break open so bad they wrap around to supporting Communism

{{li|I=M3/ES|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618|ww=social contract|pp=169}}Why join civil society? / what makes civil society legitimate when man was born free? ([[User:AnnotaterKaito|KT]]) -> cool question. very poetic. but probably wrong. 
there's no such thing as "man being born free". man is always part of something, such as family units, tribes, or kingdoms. it has to be this way, or humans wouldn't even be able to reproduce! total freedom would mean that people couldn't even find other people. there would be no babies. but when humans are able to interact and cooperate, it also creates competition, which most obviously results in judges and laws and ultimately results in states. states come from the existence of countable populations, or the existence of two separate conflicting populations. there has to be an active separation from the units people are already part of to even create the state of "man born free". like Thoreau actively going away to his own cabin away from where he started. that movement from A to B is very important and has to be taken into account in the theory. people who think like this seem to think humans are born at the age of 30 out of an egg and they're never babies and they never have babies.

{{li|I=F2/STM|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}Chronic stress warns of nothing / Stress responses used to warn humans of actual danger, but they do not warn humans of anything in the modern world -> you see this everywhere but I think it can be argued it isn't true. a corporate environment actually contains stress because entire groups of humans are smashing into other groups of humans trying to take away each other's existence including all access to shelter and food. that is actually a form of real danger that is brought down onto people constantly. nobody would say that Stalin's government competing against the Left Opposition doesn't bring real danger and real stress. nobody would say that Israelis occupying Palestine doesn't bring real danger and real stress. but everyone has forgotten that simple competition between corporations has the same effects. 
if the United States has the most obesity and diabetes, it also has the most small businesses, meaning it has more businesses than it should. every single person who is being fat-shamed should look people in the eye and threaten them with some kind of action to get rid of capitalists if they don't stop fat shaming. that would be the actual responsible thing to do!

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}Anyone claiming that chronic stress "doesn't serve humans any more" does not have a factual lived experience; they are an unreliable narrator to their own life and observations because they have ignored physical needs, while identifying physical needs that aid survival is one of the primary functions (functional purpose; effect; favorable result; desirable outcome) of emotions and empathy, and by extension of all biographical narratives claiming to be "empathy machines"

{{li|I=S2/A|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}Animals never invented capitalism -> this is super widespread whenever you see an anarchist pop up and anybody talking to them but it neglects to mention that animals "invented" spontaneously murdering and devouring each other instead, as well as exterminating other species, exploiting your own children for huge construction projects, and the whole concept of "never thinking and just being sheep". animal populations have a lot of negative things in them especially depending on what level you define populations at and whether you try to define ecosystems as populations. if you do try to do that, your view of nature should get much, much darker, while if you don't, maybe it won't.

I was thinking about a statement that "animals never invented capitalism" and I was like, ok, but bees almost 'invented' aristocracy, they're like a family that's so full of itself it started turning its own children into servants. hang on.... how do bees avoid inbreeding?? and the answer is... they don't. they're a bit like apple trees, the same cluster of flowers (the tree) keeps reproducing itself but it wildly recombines and it's different each time.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}Pabloism is a form of postmodernism / Because Pabloism looks at several different "narratives" of socialist transition (social-democratic parties, Deng Xiaoping states, etc.) and uncritically allows all of them to exist with no real standards of which ones are not acceptable, it is in effect a version of the argument that several societies cannot be described by a single ontological model or analysis framework regarding their historical development, which is the same thing as the [[E:postmodernist monomyth (meta-Marxism onto postmodernism)|central claim of postmodernist philosophies]] that several societies cannot be described by "a single metanarrative"

I never even knew he existed until Trump's people put his name in the news. if he really is a Maoist they've outright given him free publicity because I'd love to read an article by him now. I suspect it wouldn't be very good, and it would be about as good as the weird articles put out by the CPC, but it would also be so much better than anything on Fox News. god every time somebody isn't a Tory and isn't a standard center-Liberal my hope in humanity goes up a tiny bit

{{li|I=S1/PT|tradition=|Q=618|Q2=618}}House ways and means committee demands records of People's Forum finances -> okay, although that's diabolical it's at least logical. practically all political organizations in capitalism are being puppeted by capitalists. so, like, technically, the People's Forum {{em|is}} being funded by capitalists with agendas, it's just that it's completely unexceptional in that regard, just like PragerU or Fox News (a corporation) or the Tea Party or anybody else. the logic of agorism and trying to find the specific individuals that funded "evil" capitalist efforts is eating progressives alive. I genuinely don't know what everyone is trying to accomplish through this each time they keep doing it. unless they're nazis, like here, and then I guess it makes some kind of logical sense, because agorism and prejudice against arbitrary populations of people go together like a hand in a glove. are we running out of time?

I look at a lot of First World products and I'm like, do we really need this? I don't feel anything. do we really need anything? sometimes I feel this urge to be really minimalist and spend as little money as possible like I live in the Third World. and I think all of that is rational to the extent you're only talking about suspending everything to focus on stopping capitalism being more important until it actually ends.

god I relate to this in like, a much less hyperbolic and sci-fi way where there are maybe only about 10 voices speaking in the voices of people with bad understandings of the world that I ran into previously, I don't have a single inner monologue as much as something like a screenplay full of different characters that are all completely unlabeled where sometimes my dad comes into the meeting and starts spouting Toryism and sometimes people online come in and start spouting awful center-Liberal opinions and sometimes "Jake" comes in and offers up some uniquely Stalinist errors and sometimes Trotskyist theorist characters are there and those are my favorite ones because despite not always being correct they at least aren't insane while all the other ones are.

I thought one definition of empiricism was lived experience. so if you were interacting with another person wouldn't you be having a lived experience, and gathering an empirical observation? it's possible for empirical observations to be biased, so it isn't like an observation being first person and limited and biased is the thing that makes it not empirical. social interactions can also be observed objectively, independent of whether they can be observed empirically. you can try to argue that a social interaction can't really be observed empirically because of 'photon effects' where observing a particle (social atom, human) changes it. but something is being observed empirically either way even if the observation isn't perfect. I don't think you've proved that social interactions aren't material.

I feel like even when Liberal-republicanism is working reasonably well it asks for this impossible perfect situation of every town being a perfect balance of all parties that currently exist, when that just isn't how towns work; you actually have to redraw the districts every election so they contain half one party and half another, or there isn't even actually an election being had. there's also the problem of people moving around for work and throwing off the balance of districts, which is almost inevitably going to happen faster than new maps happen. it's very hard to separate Liberal-republican elections from people who are demographically and anthropologically part of political parties fighting over the right to control all the representatives for a given county or local-state. that's kind of just what Liberal-republicanism {{em|is}}. in concept the only "boring" way to stop it is to stop treating parties as a subject of elections and just say, yeah, no, parties are regional states now containing several US states or containing several cities and you vote for who leads your party but the group of attached capitalists that wins rules the country. if you did it that specific way people would get so mad, but on the other hand it's about how every blue anarchist already sees things, so they'd be mad because the system was honest instead of lying to people. 
culture, culture, culture, media, war of position, Western-Marxism, slow transition. they could have it if nobody voted for president. they could have it if the top capitalists in a region just picked all the members of parliament and all you did was register as part of your favorite group of capitalists. they believe that labor law and anti-discrimination laws actually protect workers, so like, why do we even need to vote? as it is the people with law degrees do all the work already. if any of this war of position {{censor|bullcrap}} actually worked, then the best and most progressive capitalists and academics could just make all the laws; regular people are too stupid and racist to know anything anyway, so why maintain the fiction that regular people's votes count as much as capitalist and academic votes? {{em|of course}} I'm joking. but I'm a little fascinated at the idea of how this would behave if it existed, just morbidly transfixed on these kinds of scenarios like they were horror movies. what would actually happen if nobody voted. would things be exactly the same? would the Gramscians eventually win? it's been like 150 years of the same parties so I really doubt it. but I have to seriously wonder if voting is even real or it even does anything. did we let Black people vote as a purely symbolic gesture knowing it {{em|looks}} like a standard human right that was maliciously withheld but that it actually does nothing and letting people vote would be a more effective way for everyone to continue being racist? what is voting good for? isn't it the case that only votes that are very local actually do anything, and that as for issues that happen at greater scales we simply want them to be decided once and then never have to decide them again, meaning that most voting is a symptom of a country that is fundamentally unfinished? if you ask me, capitalism is a system where a bunch of anthropological chunks of people viciously fight each other for mutually exclusive existence and then when they Win At Existence they legislate all their culture and beliefs onto the area they've won purely based on their own emotions and preferences and it just goes on over and over again as people continually become convinced they're better than each other at arbitrary things they want to control and then they ferociously try to be the only group of people that can write anything about that thing or make that thing and nobody else. it's a mess. there's no tolerance or understanding or acceptance or "reason" in any of it. it's just, capitalism organizes people into chunks, and they're the smallest unit of human life because they form around either anthropological countable culture, the need to cooperate to obtain food from the world and exist, or the ability to produce one specific thing that is selected on by the surrounding social environment, but they're totally disorganized relative to themselves, so... chunks go smash. that's a silly but hilariously complete 3-word summary of my new interpretation of Marxism.

{{li|I=S1/DX|tradition=PT, MZ, DX, LR|Q=618|Q2=618}}congress of estates (motif) -> this is a pattern that seems to come over and over in all archaic republics. back in traditional monarchies the congress of estates would be very blatant and exist fairly literally with three estates in it. then when strawberry Marxisms were created, they sort of left some of the features of monarchy in place that Liberal-republicanism would have broken up, and notably invented the congress of estates all over again with New Democracy. New Democracy started out with allowing the nationalist faction and capitalists to exist, and when it ceased to exist "proper" it morphed into having the CPC, the capitalists, and a layer of mediators between the top layer of theorists and capitalists (which is rather blue; I made that sound like capitalist-theorists for a reason) such as the ancient petition system. China is somewhat ruthless on public officials as a group, which is probably how it's stayed stable, but it does very little to them just for being capitalists. in North America, you see a similar thing pop up with the National Labor Relations Board and the layer of labor lawyers. in terms of classes, you may as well be taking that sea of labor lawyers and sending them to the US Congress. 
lawyers are constantly trying to keep things exactly as they are, prosecuting anything that appears to threaten businesses, and sometimes representing unions and trying to get businesses regulated. but in a way, it's always the lawyers that win, because it's always the lawyers that get to decide what the outcomes of all conflicts are and what is going to be recorded in federal and regional law. lawyers think they've tamed all human conflicts, saying, here is gender law and here is race law and here is labor law. but all the conflicts between lawyers where they think they've won or lost are illusory, because all of it is a proxy war that is only carried out by imagined facsimilies of real things. people say that Communism "only works on paper", but Liberal republics somewhat literally live all their history {{em|on paper}} inside the arguments of appointed lawyers. it's very easy for all these arguments to simply be working off hypothetical models of how groups of people interact with each other that are just plain wrong, and when those models and amendments are wrong, laws and amendments will fail to function or be repealed. critical race theory is like 20% of the way to understanding how bad the problem is. yes, laws about race are often working off wrong models, but so is every other law. quite honestly, to get laws that work you need to abolish the entire concept of Idealist law and make laws which are more following the principles of existential materialism; whenever a law doesn't reflect how people really behave, it has to be replaced with one that has a real understanding of social dynamics and how to control them. I think that's the best way to create transitional laws within a workers' state that is attempting to hold its structure long enough to gradually make laws and government irrelevant. all Idealist laws will eventually be pushed back on by material reality, while a truly Materialist law would be followed so well it would hardly ever have to be enforced.

Hinduism basically has a general concept of what education is baked into it. it tries to compensate for the fact that all people have different levels of education and study different sets of experiences or observations within different populations or regions and they could all understand some things correctly but the people at greater levels of education may be closer to understanding the whole picture. and the concept is tailored to the religion or cluster of religions and the notion that it is possible to get greater knowledge of "spiritual truths", but you know, taking it away from that context and looking at it on its own, it's a great concept. I honestly think it's pretty good. 
I wish people wouldn't use concepts like this to put subjective experience over the material world and potential alternatives like seeing overall populations as physical objects, but, what can you do. in some ways religion "absorbs" or "co-opts" the concept of education and awareness to spread its own message, like with the notion of Māyā or Christ as the true reality, but in other ways, religion just accidentally describes the general process of education and I can't really be against that.

they really buried Alan Woods and the Fourth International into the deeper pages. so... in my mind, that means the workers' state should consist of at least two countries but has no particular minimum number. if the US, Canada, and Mexico all join a single Fourth International with every country in South America and Europe and Australia that's a smashing success, but it's not required for this claim.

finally, I have a definition of the proletariat specific to violet Marxism emerging from violet Marxism's general understanding of classes. the proletariat exists as thousands or millions of plural proletariats mainly because the petty bourgeoisie is busy dividing up proletarians and constantly fighting itself. the petty bourgeoisie is one of the most annoying classes in history because it's genuinely capable of having a class rule where within the smallest places it rules it doesn't actually conflate its class territories with one specific person, and it can genuinely rule a territory as a cooperating team of people. this messes up {{em|everyone}}. every single prior historical event has involved specific individuals being conflated with class territories, so when petty bourgeois islands show up, they get super confused and start to think class society has been abolished and they must be the final class, but they're not, because the fact their island is divided from another island and makes decisions separate from others is a class! 
it sounds strange at first but once you've had to live with a world full of newsfeeds where a bunch of independent producers are constantly competing against each other to all make decisions you can't affect and it's easier to come into contact with {{em|them}} than any actual friends or social connections, you start to understand it. {{em|that}} has to be prevented at all costs. people will have to get used to the purpose of labor being to make structures that slot into larger structures and which are specifically to serve everyone {{em|but}} them as opposed to them first, or else human existence will be a bunch of petty squabbles forever. and I am so done with that. I'm even done with anarchists doing that, I'm done with all of it.

{{li|I=S2/MX/JC|tradition=|Q=618}}Kim Il-sung is not North Korea / Kim Jong-il is not North Korea / Kim Jong-un is not North Korea -> this is actually true. it's abused by Liberal-republicans and agorist types all the time for the wrong reasons but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea by itself. yes, North Korea is the overall body of North Koreans. and the reason [[E:Juche-socialism and Dengism are the same thing with no actually meaningful differences|Dengism]] is so weirdly effective is that it actually concerns itself with and obsesses over the whole body of Chinese citizens or North Koreans. so, whether Juche-socialism is actually a good thing or not is really complicated. because on one hand, it is entirely capable of understanding that individual North Koreans are not North Korea itself no matter how popular they are, and that center-wing nationalism in North Korea really is about serving all North Koreans as a people, and absolutely not about serving specific individuals. Juche-socialism is — shocker — a republic. it understands the concept that a republic is an anarchy created by either snapping off the king or bringing together a [[E:conglomerate anarchy|stationary combination of heterogeneous elements]], although the mere concept of that makes both blue and charcoal anarchists mad. all Liberal-republicans and anarchists seem to want to believe Liberal-republicanism or anarchism are special and Dengism could not possibly be equally as good as Liberal-republicanism. and they're just plain wrong. Dengism is almost exactly as good as Liberal-republicanism is, and that absolutely blows a gaping hole in everything they say. it exposes both Liberal-republicanism {{em|and}} blue anarchism as petty-bourgeois nonsense which is all about chauvinism to a little isolated island of people just because it's yours. which, yeah, is one of the most ironic things ever in context — an ideology which is explicitly about center-wing nationalism and national unity has exposed United States chauvinism. this is especially damning for charcoal anarchism because it wants to act like it's above everything and the only way to reach the final stage of world civilization, the only way to bridge all the world's gaps and unite everybody, but like, it can't unite the displaced Native Americans who now love anarchism and North Koreans, it can't unite Black people obsessed with anarchism and North Koreans. so basically all anarchism in the United States is petty-bourgeois nonsense. the easy litmus test for what is and isn't that is whether a particular ideology can unite North Koreans with United States people on their own terms without making any of the decisions outside North Korea. an ideology that can do that is viable, and an ideology that cannot do that is garbage. 
which amusingly suggests that some precise fraction of Trotskyism is legitimate and the rest of it is garbage. I think that's just correct, and I still stand by this statement.

I mean, sure, by 1950 there were about three possible Marxisms, mainstream Marxism-Leninism, Trotskyism, and Maoism, and among most of the theorists of any of them it would have been arrogant for any of them to assume their Marxism was the best and only one. it took until at least 1960 or so before there was enough information that it became remotely reasonable to try to pick a best one again.

one of the evident weaknesses of vector models is they can only describe one kind of relationship between tokens rather than actual different kinds of relationships, such as something being understood as a synonym or an antonym or forming from other things joined together instead of breaking apart into other things. this is where the model of vectors or coordinates actually having different numbered Properties or relations that connect them to things really could have shined. you can take away linguistic ambiguity where a word means two different things for different reasons, or even uses of a word that historically were related but aren't any more, and you might be able to decrease the complexity of the model by not using the same coordinate for so many things and needing all those connections on a given coordinate. this isn't what the brain does but there are some times you probably don't want your model to be like the human brain; the same processes that make it easy to encode information efficiently make it easy to bake prejudice into everything and make it impossible to separate prejudice from a bunch of things that are okay.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Capitalism doesn't promote pure Idealism; it specifically promotes eclectic Materialism, a Materialism only containing just enough Materialism to facilitate people manufacturing and selling products and getting paid -> this is one of the big conclusions of the "Twilight Sparkle has (no) Free Will" discussion. capitalism doesn't remove people from Materialism. it makes a small amount of Materialism mandatory. this is why it is that people become super committed to parts of Materialism seemingly out of nowhere in the middle of an otherwise Idealist worldview, and then sometimes try to deny that they actually believe in Materialism.

(there might also be some worrying conclusions for Palestinians after all the claims that they've done morally wrong things to Israel.) 
gosh this just really makes me wonder what it would be like if Animal Farm was set in Australia and also for no particular reason the characters were furries. it would make it so much more disturbing that people apparently keep them as slaves. but it would make it way easier to tell the story of Cuba where people constantly deny that the argument is over slave plantations and the Confederacy realistically extended over two whole country regions. we've had this whole argument about trying to delete slavery from history books and yet there's one part of it the Confederacy solidly won that nobody even talks about.

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Friendship and freedom are fundamentally different things — freedom is typically conceptualized as the capacity to move to a different space within an overall phase space of choices, but this is not the same thing as friendship because friendship is the maintenance of one particular option despite it not being the "optimal" choice, making friendship and freedom contradictory processes assuming an agorist definition of what freedom is -> it's that old problem of "is Twilight Sparkle free if she is forever shaped by her connection with Rainbow Dash". I think the correct answer is that friendship or a strong relationship is its own thing and it is not blue. I don't know what color friendship actually is, I couldn't begin to guess that right now. but I really suspect that the way agorism has colonized social relationships and turned them into markets is an illusion.

{{li|I=F2/W|tradition=|Q=618}}Human demographics are themselves the proletariat; people are the proletariat because they're Black or lesbian while not being White -> no. that's an improperly classless definition of what classes are. (I do think there are [[E:molecularization (meta-Marxism)|proper classless definitions of classes]], but they aren't this.) a human demographic is a somewhat arbitrary group of people {{em|containing classes}}. so you're dangerously close to creating an eclectic Marxism the moment you say this. 
the worst thing is that it's not just Marcuse that says this, I've seen "real" Marxists say this. 
I think one possible cause of this is bourgeois models of reality penetrating deep through society, and in particular the agorist model of society penetrating deep down to the smallest layers, because small capitalist ideology is actually the most popular capitalist ideology now. Animal Farm 2026 literally promoted small businesses in a newspaper! and they thought this would be inspiring as opposed to hilarious in its transparency. yeah, I think there is a pervasive model that on the larger scale societies consist of capitalism but on the smaller scale societies consist of what is claimed to be "community" but what is in fact agorism, and people silently believe that ethnic groups themselves are made of market mechanisms and the breaking down of racist barriers occurs because market mechanisms break them down. this model seems like it would be amenable to Trotskyism because it contains the notion of capitalism inevitably shattering nation-states but it is actually a terrible trap where people will cling onto agorism and then act like it's the very definition of humanity itself and Trotskyists can't come in. honestly. I think agorism needs to be smashed before the world can make any progress. it's inside "Libertarianism". it's the basis of social platforms and all the complaints they bring out about "algorithms". it created Marcuseanism and got everybody mad about civil rights because they began to create a weird loop where talking about progress prevented progress. it might as well be the root of all evil. it's bizarre how often it comes up and

{{li|I=F2/HM/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism / Trotskyism is more compatible with moral vanguard theory than Stalin's Marxism because it presents a picture of the entire industrial world unifying onto a shared body of laws (a Trotskyist socioeconomy and corresponding party structure; a Trotskyist "constitution" enshrining socialist transition), which is conceptually similar to the entire industrial world unifying onto the same shared body of moral values -> I love this statement because logically it should be true. logically speaking there should be no errors here. but historically it absolutely has not been true. nobody who believes in the moral vanguard model has been on board with realizing Trotskyism in their own country, they're always anticommunists, so historically they've been the most likely to tolerate Deng Xiaoping states. there was approximately a decade where you could get them to tolerate Stalin's Marxism specifically because it had a border around it and they would never have to accept it for the rest of time. 
it's quite a contradiction that Habermasians hate Communism, but like, you can get them to be pro- Soviet Union and pro-Stalin on a segregationist line of argument. they don't want to be changed. it's less important for them to expand their own morals and laws over other countries than it is that fundamentally you can't force {{em|them}} to change. so they claim to be about social change but fundamentally what they want is for things to stay the same as long as they subjectively like those things. it's hilariously accurate in unintended ways when agorist types try to frame Freedom as "subjectivity" — oh, really, so you're free when the evaluation of what is good or bad for society is completely subjective? it seems like when they speak of moral truth values they're just using formal logic to launder their preconceptions. how do we know that a purported crime "is" anything? you can say that "colonialism" is bad and that "anti-capitalists are against colonialism" but if you can't define what colonialism is and where it comes from (trust me, there is not a single answer, various different "The Lefts" are still arguing about that) then what does that statement even mean, and how does it have the power to stop anyone from doing anything? what does defining a moral truth value and affixing it to an event that happened actually get you in that context?

{{li|I=F2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Plagiarism is stating the population of England without context / Plagiarism is making a non-obvious statement of fact without providing sources; this is to imply that plagiarism is defined as having a belief which is materially accurate (true) but not justified / Remembering a fact is plagiarism -> this statement sounds okay when you are teaching elementary school but becomes laughably incoherent when you try to apply it to actual adult life for even a second. like, how many everyday spoken conversations do you think contain plagiarism just because you don't have time to look up exactly what book you read or what video you watched? if plagiarism is a matter of morality then people do immoral things every day just by speaking; everyone's daily interactions are hurting authors and academics every second of every day. at a certain point you have to ask if morality is nothing more than people {{i|believing that not having control over other people's lives harms them}}. there's a terrible similarity between this concept of plagiarism and people getting upset they are being harmed because they don't have control over trans people. I don't like ethics. I'm done with it.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|tradition=|Q=618}}Because plagiarism is making a statement of fact without providing sources (sic), any instance of reading a reference book and forgetting what exactly what the title is and where the book came from causes plagiarism; only people with a record of every book they have read within the time they are likely to remember it or who have every book they read accessible in their house can be moral -> now, to be fair, if we weren't talking about the concept of "plagiarism" and were talking about a unified notion of rules of evidence that applies across law and the sciences, I think this would be a reasonable thing to say — a chain of custody makes for better evidence. but it has always been really strange to me that people have seen this as a moral issue and seen the need to conflate rules of evidence with "stealing". isn't it enough to identify information as good-quality or bad-quality information? what's the big deal with trying to put so much control on every student that probably isn't even brought down on some publishing corporations? 
I feel like "stating an unverifiable fact" and "copying sentences out of a book" should be completely separate things. this is, unfortunately, one of the only good things large language models have done: they've been slowly forcing people to get better models of what plagiarism is because when they aren't human and can't be held accountable for anything and thus [[E:Reality is tyrannical|inherently have more rights than humans will ever have]], people are forced to fall back to guides on "how to identify AI" and actually explain materially why plagiarism creates less useful text rather than giving a moral argument about how a machine they cannot control "should have" done things differently. it would be wonderful to have something other than "AI" doing that instead but so far nothing has really succeeded at it.

I think in some ways Free Software types and this swath of "generic libertarians" is really wired into the concept of business territories and owners and trying to break down the business territories of the "big" or "corporatist" owners. it's comical how although the reasons for it are wrong the conclusions are very close to correct and I would unironically support using a surprisingly large slice of the generic-libertarian content that exists to teach Marxism. it's funny how nothing but the antagonism between all business territories eventually begins to undo capitalism if you give it long enough, while no amount of anarchist ideology ever seems to make much of a difference.

I have to wonder. what would happen if Kropotkinism actually kicked off? wouldn't you just have a population of people that earns tiny amounts, has huge expenses, and basically lives just like gig workers? what if the reason anarchism hasn't been more successful is Amazon beat anarchists to creating 'easy work' of the kind anarchists want but just not in the conditions they want? [https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/02/19/jxer-f19.html] it seems to me like anarchism moves really slow and capitalism moves fast, owning entire [[E:agora (meta-Marxism)|market-boxes]] and communities while anarchists are only talking about those things and before they can meaningfully create them.

{{li|I=S2/LLM/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Community is a hyperstructure -> the claim that "community", mostly as a materialist version of the anarchist model of what "communities" are, is a system that encourages itself to expand further through parts of the system contributing to the overall system. 
I think the description is really apt because you see this perfect 'blockchain quality' where community looks like a shiny wonderful thing you could only want more and more of, but when you get any particular instance of community, such as a newsfeed platform like YouTube or Twitter, the more people add to it the worse it seems to get and the more it turns into this vector for individual capitalists to own an entire "agora" and exploit the whole concept of an economy existing and make money off that, and the more it feels like community itself was a scam from the start. 
Community is a hyperstructure + Hyperstructures are usually harmful = Community is a cancer.

honestly? if getting people to comprehend "hyperstructures" could get rid of blockchains themselves then I'd be all for it 
I feel like this concept is almost more of a cautionary tale than a desirable thing to have though. one of their examples is the general concept of money because of course they have to explain how bitcoin is similar to money. but like, the expansion of money through creating more products and the central government giving loans to corporations to speed up the process isn't necessarily a good thing, it often leads to the destruction of the environment as it's consumed to create materials and factories, or the destruction of culture as products obsolete other products just to chase money and get more money added. this is so bad that when they present language as the second example I'm like.... okay, is language secretly a bad thing that is destroying the world and I just didn't know it was? I have to say though, the advent of large language models really vindicates the concept of hyperstructures, if in a bad way. the more AI that people create the more different AIs can train on each other to the extent they can generate any meaningful inferences or conversation data that human testers approve, and then there will be more AI. so, yeah. the concept of hyperstructures was very successful. it was successful at describing something, but it seems like basically everything it describes is an existential threat to humanity, including The Economy, capitalism, blockchain, AI, and possibly language (??). 
this might be one of the clearest pieces of evidence that anarchism is inherently dangerous because it doesn't actually build into itself the capability to model societies spending a while building something and then leveling off in a neat S-curve because they moved on to entirely different things without redoing the same things over and over again such as repeatedly reinventing game consoles or phones. (a thing Marxism could do with some effort because it inherently understands the concept of historical periods and shifts from one period to another.) despite all the surface rhetoric about "infinite growth" recently it only really understands infinite growth because of its core values of always making everything about "community" and "inclusivity" and never saying no to anybody. so naturally a system of modeling growth itself is one of the first things to pop out of it, which claims to have a limit but in practice when it hits the limit just divides in two and continues to make more and more.

I'd argue that at least as soon as New Testament Christianity appeared the whole thing was really about pushing the concept that seemed nonsensical at that time of getting rid of all rulers and creating a society based only in social bonds connecting people into a society ("love", "brotherhood", "neighbors"), and Christians had to dress up that concept inside the concept of a worldwide empire just to get anybody to believe it when otherwise it would have seemed unbelievable. 
I'd also argue that by capitulating to the class imagery of their time Christians doomed Christianity and turned it into a tool of empire itself as empire noticed that an ideology about empire was better suited to literally arguing one empire was superior to other empires and deserved to be the one to conquer the world. there's not a lot of difference between Christians and Democrats. Christians: we are all united together as under The King. Romans promptly turn the king into Caesar and argue Christianity promotes somewhat-racist empires that take other nations as slaves. Democrats: we are all united together by voting and a list of civil rights. Capitalists promptly make it mandatory for every minority listed in a civil rights act to support Israel and destroy Palestine, and support products made in Cuba while refusing Cuban products on pain of arrest.

{{li|I=F2/A|tradition=|Q=618}}They can't arrest all of us -> one of those anarchist sayings that deeply bothers me because of how it's just not true. a country can bring down the law on as many people as it wants to. when it can't arrest everybody, that's when it brings out the tanks and helicopters and just starts shooting them. you should know this. it's already a pretty common talking point to say U.S. people don't revolt against the U.S. because of "the military". if China can bring out the army when there's not enough time for jury trials, and it's already common for cops to shoot petty criminals, what stops the United States from starting an open season on everybody who isn't committed to following all its laws? a bit of Cold War propaganda? do you really think the Great Terror happened for any other reason than that republics are based on laws and when people stop following laws and getting scared by cops they do anything to protect themselves??

this is one of the only models that can explain either separate wing of Liberal-republicanism and Stalin's Marxism and even a Trotskyist republic equally well: the model that republics begin with written laws and laws are the fundamental Ideas that create "nations of ideas". Tories don't follow center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. center-Liberals skirt around Tory laws, Tories call treason. Communists don't respect center-Liberal laws, center-Liberals call treason. anarchists or right-Liberals defy Soviet laws, Stalin's government calls treason. Stalin's government defies Trotskyists' desired body of laws, Trotskyists call treason. 
it's all about laws. laws are made by classes, and that's what distinguishes the fundamental character of a body of laws, but actually, all geopolitical conflicts and demographic conflicts deep inside countries start at whether separate groups of people are following each other's internal laws. it's all one big squabble about laws and what laws are inherently good or bad, while that will never have an objective answer because different areas of people hate other people's laws and don't want them. 
this is part of what makes critical-theory so frustrating. as of late it's been picking up talking points that the United States government is totally capable of granting North American tribes rights. but in order to get those "rights" they had to first send people to assimilate to White towns and consent to the overall body of United States laws and agree not to violate any of them, while some of those laws banned the tribal societies they would have been fighting for. it's a bit paradoxical. within the system that boasts all the time about giving people human rights (and also lies to everyone claiming the rights are from birth or 'god-given' despite the fact God doesn't give them to you in Cuba and Cuba requires an invasion to defeat The Regime that's apparently stronger than God himself)

{{li|I=S2/MX|tradition=|Q=618}}Dengism can defeat God (power scaling) / Deng Xiaoping states are stronger than God / If human rights are granted to people by God when they are born, but the United States needs to invade Cuba to ensure that people have God-given rights, then the Cuban government is strong enough to stop God himself; this is to imply that the United States is proportionally stronger than God by two [[E:feat (power scaling)|feats]] because the United States is stronger than the thing that defeated God but is not God / The U.S. can defeat God (sense)

I'm not sure Liberal-republicans are actually opposing this thing for the right reasons. sure, the people inside it sound like fairly bad people, and it doesn't sound like a good place to live. but I feel like this thing is being used as leverage to promote things people otherwise wouldn't support. to show that otherwise-bad things are "necessary". like, compounds full of racists are the new 9/11 — or the old one that probably existed decades before it happened. 
(it really doesn't help that the commentator identified the White supremacist compounds as "terrorist cells". that's a pretty heavy-handed rhetorical term when it comes to giving a particular national government great military power over any city within the entire rest of the world. like, anybody who says the word "terrorist" may as well already be king. Marxist parties are the only halfway exception. but it's still bad.) 
I feel like what's happening is something like, critical theory was one big scam by Liberal-republicanism to convince anarchists to turn against other forms of anarchism — granted, some of which were somewhat harmful, making the deal sound weirdly enticing — so Liberal-republicanism could then turn around and eradicate all anarchism and then be free to take over other countries and conquer the world. just like in those civilization games where you can just build one giant republican country and nuclear war never destroys the world first.

{{li|I=F2/LR|tradition=LR, HM|Q=618}}The purpose of Liberal-republicanism is to transition the world out of racism -> this seems to be the hypothesis advanced by critical theory. that republics actually exist in order to force ethnic groups to be friends. no matter what they've done to each other. this explains how Native American movements have been going mainstream: Liberal-republicanism is having trouble getting people to consent to it any more, so it needs to recruit minorities to advance its agenda of expanding itself over people and telling them what to do under the guise that it's making the world better for minorities. 
...this has to be false, doesn't it? the actual function of the United States has been dividing into two anarchisms that are mortal enemies. no matter how much critical theory says that forcing people to interact and integrate should change consciousness it doesn't seem to happen, and to some degree it only seems to make people more and more resentful and more inclined to kill each other. why it happens is less the presence of ethnic groups together in particular and more the presence of multiple populations that could be politically independent being ruled by "external" political factions that feel like foreign countries. like, it would really seem that Deng Xiaoping Thought has been way more successful than Liberal-republicanism, because having a single unified government actually seems to unify people rather than generating this worsening and worsening cycle of hatred. 
critical theory may be ideology generated directly out of Liberal-republicanism in the most insidious way possible. maybe this is what it's always done. maybe the real foundation of Liberal-republicanism is precisely holding up a set of laws, claiming they're inherently moral, and forcing everyone around, even people who aren't part of the country yet, to obey them or else. that is one of the only good explanations for why Liberal-republicanism has been so eager to back Israel. it doesn't even actually run on morality or care about morality. all it cares about is whether as many people as possible across the world are following an arbitrary set of laws. so the more people think Palestine "isn't following the law", {{em|as it is written}}, the easier it is to justify eliminating Palestine. 
you know. queer rights are a sham. they only exist because people have proved gay people are legal. on this weird metaphysical level where laws already exist before laws actually exist. and that's how laws come to be laws. but it isn't gay people that are oppressed by this Kantian interpretation of laws. it's Palestinians. believing that laws inherently exist and they only need to be approved just legitimizes the structure that makes this illusion possible to believe — global empire. this conception of things shouldn't be true, but when your empire is big enough to bully Cuba it's big enough to make almost anything come true.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Agorism is a segregation machine / Liberal-republicanism is a segregation machine / The progression of physical structures within Liberal-republicanism evolves in a fundamentally different way than the progression of physical structures inside Bolshevism; within Liberal-republicanism the structures that develop are loci of non-aggression inside which the particular list of rather specific things recognized to not be aggressive is strictly required to be tolerated by the entire locus but things not included on the list of non-aggressive things are often considered aggressive and worthy of being pushed out of society even if among things they would be compatible with they are not actually aggressive or dangerous and the locus of non-aggression simply fears them; 
the creation of loci of non-aggression is popularly believed to result in fusion of different loci which will locally take away chunk competition from society and replace it with 'chunk cooperation' or 'chunk summation'; 
in reality, the entire concept of loci of non-aggression is so unstable and arbitrary that it easily creates countably separate loci in perpetual competition that evolve into toxically-linked, hostile, or even murderous societies, and the precise transition that occurs is to split a country like the United States into two or more countable nationalities that are as similar as possible and yet as toxically incompatible as possible, which both still believe themselves to be compatible, and spawn further nationalities as people attempt to assemble into [[E:anarchism|a third locus of non-aggression]] to get away from the existing nationalities' toxic relationship; the system loathes inequality and attacks both billionaires and populational borders for breaking the illusion that society is singular and not made of plural pyramids, but as more and more equality is produced, more and more segregation is produced along the separations between loci, and gaps between loci channel deeper and produce more hatred, fear, and anti-social behavior, paradoxically making people nicer and nicer inside loci but completely unaware and incapable of understanding that other people are nice to each other because other people's trajectory of becoming nice was completely different from theirs; 
loci of non-aggression include: towns, families that have not experienced violent child abuse or the murder of a spouse, clusters of employees and owners that haven't committed horrible abuses against each other yet, clusters of tenants the landlord hasn't [[E:landlord rape incidents|literally committed crimes]] against, individual churches, segregated White towns without any gangs, Black towns without any racists, towns without any homeless camps, tiny satellite cities that produce nothing but are not "menaced" by big cities or taxes, individual local-states that come to accurately or falsely believe they've reduced themselves to one Liberal-republican party and no longer worry about the other, clusters of minority subpopulations, the US Bill of Rights, clusters of religions that believe they only have freedom of religion because they all exist together and none of them stopped existing, the overall US empire as it exists in a state of not having wars on its immediate borders, clusters of First World countries that are friendly toward each other but get together to oppress Third-World countries and even more so any Second-World countries that exist as "aggressives"

Trotsky wrecking Stalin's Marxism is immaterial if Stalin was trying to build a worse version of Marxism over a better version of Marxism. when Liberal-republicans do that, it's counter-revolutionary, so when Stalin does it, it's also counter-revolutionary, no need to even start arguing about The Bureaucracy yet. meta-Marxists, {{em|you}} go build Stalin's Marxism in another country so it doesn't wreck Trotskyism, not the other way around. and I would say, that's a good point actually. maybe Stalin {{em|did}} accidentally transplant a Marxism meant for much more undeveloped countries to the Soviet Union. and maybe it's technically true that Stalin's Marxism vulgarizes really quickly into Dengism if you aren't watching it closely. is Stalin actually a Maoist? are Stalin and Mao actually Dengists? sometimes I just don't know any more.

I think it's more realistic to admit that anarchism can contain domination and hierarchy and the claims it doesn't were lies, and just define anarchism around some other concept than Good and Bad — that includes "domination", "hierarchy", "decency", "respect", "disruption", "empathy", morality, ethics, "enchantment" (which turns into ethics in a couple seconds), "prejudices", and "White culture". the one completely nebulous thing they say that I am genuinely unsure whether they can or can't have is Freedom, because that has hundreds of definitions and I'm still not sure I understand what it is. so, yeah, {{em|maybe}} you can get away with defining anarchism as Freedom-ism and basing it on these long treatises of exactly how Freedom works descriptively with no prescriptive statements about it.

{{li|I=S2/Fy|tradition=|Q=618}}"Male culture" and "female culture" are more or less the same but "queer culture" and "non-queer culture" are different / In terms of the arts, "male culture" and "female culture" are more or less the same thing in all contexts except among the craziest groups of proto-fascist Tories <s>[I promise to revise that on the Ontology: page]</s>, but "queer culture" and "non-queer culture" are actually different things to a greater extent than "U.S. culture" versus "Japanese culture" or "U.S. culture" versus "British culture"; national population does not affect culture products as greatly as the new and special forms of interaction and description of selves and world that take place within the particular kinds of semi-countable social groups that take part in "queer culture"; this is to imply but not state that "queer culture" carries its own worldview and political faction distinct from Liberal-republican politics -> 
male culture: Digimon Adventure. female culture: MLP gen 4. it's quite obvious what is what with kids' media when you have networks wanting to aim products at apparent differences between boys and girls to try to get more consistent sales, but even when you can point out a 'show for girls' and a 'show for boys' they are not actually that different if they're any good. hence all the bronies, hence that awkward space of women watching anime and trying to ignore the grossly exaggerated female silhouettes because nothing else about the show or game is especially bad. I think you also see this with things aimed at adults but it would be hard to think of an example where you get such a 'nice' region of awkward crossover. {{book|Dragonriders of Pern}} can be argued to be female culture I guess, but it's easy to forget that. then there's like, an argument to be made that {{book|Harry Potter}} is so misogynistic that it's male culture coming out of a woman — if it wasn't enough of an insult to accuse it of being such an 'uncool' book series as to be read by more moms and dads than kids — but it's also just within the range of 'teenage' enough that teenage girls can get obsessed with the male characters. 
so, male culture and female culture are very similar on basic levels. but "queer culture" is something different from either of them. you can really start to identify it the moment you see a furry visual novel with a plot that's "weirdly straight" — where some of the characters are stereotypes, or where the writing is okay but all the characters have totally depressing problems that make you wonder why you're reading a book right now and not just talking to the people around you that are the human equivalent of Twitter feeds, here assuming you also don't like Twitter. when these kinds of things are made "correctly", they have a very different feel. you see people being... idealistic? living in their own world, but not really in an upsetting way. they stop thinking about the outside world where everybody isn't of the same finite cluster of LGBT+ people and the atmosphere becomes very... specific to the people who are there. I want to say "insular" but that's more negative than what I actually mean. 
I think part of what I am saying is that LGBT+ circles tend to generate this consciousness of being a teeny village of people just because they are inherently limited to having only tiny clusters of people available, and because of this they sometimes also start believing that they inherently constitute some kind of "anarchist tribe" that must transition to anarchism because it will never contain enough people to spawn a Liberal-republican nation-state. the way different subpopulations in the United States get so separated really seems to mess with people's heads and cause people to see themselves as entirely separate stateless "nation-states" with separate histories, right down to subconsciously imagining whole trajectories of transition only for their own cluster of people of a particular identity and based on the exact number of people that are in it at the moment. it's funny how identities will take the notion of forms of society comically literally to the point a Marxist would scold them for reading historical materialism too closely, but then they will not even know they're doing it and try to deny that forms of society and social transitions are a thing and just try to tell you everybody needs to transition to anarchism because gay people exist.

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Orange terrain is solid / Orange terrain is stable / Trotskyism is composed of fine-scale structures that are distinguished by their ability to stop parts of society from being overtaken and taken advantage of by The Bureaucracy; these structures may be referred to as "orange structures", although this only labels one specific function of the structures or process they contribute to and is not meant to be exclusive with the category of them being crimson structures / The dictatorship of the proletariat is an unbroken terrain of connected orange structures -> 
so apparently it's only when you look deep into what Trotskyists are claiming The Bureaucracy is that you finally start to understand what it is they're trying to create. they want one basic thing within any particular region, which is the dictatorship of the proletariat; the concept of international permanent revolution can actually be conceptualized as being emergent from this, because anything that keeps continuously defending outwardly red or orange countries from turning strawberry or blue and does appear in multiple nearby countries can link across the country regions so they can defend each other from encroaching bourgeois factions and form a Second World. this makes a lot more sense. the very first few times I read about Trotskyism I took it as this vaguely Idealist proclamation that things [[E:"I believe that everybody" statement|should have happened]] in other countries [[E:Monty Hall problem|that didn't happen]] and there "just should have" been international permanent revolution. but I now see it was more complicated than that. it's less that Trotskyists were upset Trotsky couldn't go to Germany and turn it orange and more that they were upset that the Third International seemingly refused to create a correct model of what happened in Germany, so they thought they had to tirelessly protect any region that really did have the potential to create a dictatorship of the proletariat, wherever it was, to keep The Bureaucracy from getting into it because the parties allied with Stalin were not safe from getting 'infiltrated' and slowly turning strawberry. the aim of trying to hold down a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat and prevent strawberry Marxisms from forming is respectable, given how many strange things strawberry Marxisms do on their best days ('corporations are productive forces', 'socialism is getting rid of poverty', party-approved listicles) and the few actually-awful things they do on their worst days (pre-emptively thinking rude people are reactionaries just because they're rude, battle between strawberry cops and Maoists buried inside resistances). historically speaking strawberry Marxisms are very similar to blue factions in that they slowly restore this dynamic of the most powerful people generating more power and keeping down the weakest people. I wouldn't blame anyone for acting like strawberry Marxisms simply aren't something to be messed with and are more something you want to stop at the root. as long as the people saying that are at least as Marxist as Stalin; anarchists really need to shut up and read enough stuff to learn how to do violet analysis before say anything on the topic of 'power multiplying'. if anarchists knew as much Marxism as the [[E:International Committee of the Fourth International|ICFI]] I would not be anywhere near as mad at them as I am and I would be more tolerant of proposals to create charcoal terrains that are supposed to serve the same function as orange terrains. I was in the beginning, but.... oh boy when anarchism only seems to generate more stupidity every day without ever getting better you quickly get tired of it

{{li|I=S2/MX/IV|tradition=|Q=618}}Historically, Trotskyism has always been a "poly-" Marxism and there has never been a molecularized definition of Trotskyism (or any definition) which does not expect {{em|the process inside}} a particular country region to spill to the edge of the country effectively enough to end up creating connected blocs or federations of countries; the process of abolishing "owned country territories" and ruling classes along country borders and the process of defeating other versions of Marxism are not necessarily the direct causes of the "poly-" shape as much as consequences of it, and in fact, Trotskyism having a "poly-" shape is easily explained by processes inside each country region individually, namely a molecularized process of forming a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat which if successful joins multiple countries into a single potentially contiguous Second World region

Liberal-republicans will most of the time act like a particular republic existing is only natural and dismantling it would be craziness but at other times they'll act like the entire existence of nationalities is a game to them and everyone can just stop being Chinese at any time if they get tired of it. there is this weird anarchist undercurrent to all Liberal-republicanism which you see vaguely come up in theorists like Rousseau. but when you try to point out that it's there, Liberal-republicanism will generally try to deny it and act like all the people that say taxes are arbitrary constructs or they're 'sovereign citizens' are foreign material and weren't created by glitches in Liberal-republican theory itself. the one time people get bold about it and it becomes the most socially acceptable is when it's applied to other countries than the one people are currently in. tell people that the United States is a made-up game and they get upset and try to argue at you for hours that civil rights court cases that will get repealed tomorrow are objective truth, tell people China is a made-up game that can be broken up or remade from scratch and they'll simply nod.

ethics itself is colonial in that without the creation of an empire you can't go on the continuing journey of people becoming 'more and more' ethical. you have to have that slump first where a huge atrocity is committed and then people progressively learn about it and apologize. a world without atrocities genuinely might not need morality or ethics at all. it might be a wholly amoral world. and the fact people are even talking about ethics may signal either that they're defending something awful, or that they aren't as good of people as they believe they are.

there's nothing wrong with people trying to do Marxist breakdowns of the elements or themes that make up popular media. not even if the popular work is superficial "slop". and you know why? the more popular something is the cheaper it gets to buy after a few years once people start donating it to thrift stores. if you manage to take a really popular work, however bad, and turn it into a teaching tool with a well known meaning, you've created really cheap propaganda that you don't need party organizers to distribute, that will keep getting spread around no matter how many party members get caught, and that will be harder to ban because the bourgeoisie created it and it wasn't created by a group of people easy to strategically label as "an invading foreign country". of all the things Western Marxists do, this is actually one of the smartest ones. because if Gramscians go into academia or movie studios and [[E:|take up job slots]], it doesn't make that big an impact on who can actually make decisions in industries or who can strike, but if you manage to change the use of an existing product then you've somewhat undone the ability of the corporations that made it to make decisions about what will be produced and what everyone is and isn't allowed to think before everybody else can.

these might include: Trotskyists getting expelled from the CPSU was psychologically traumatic or at least not predicted by their theoretical models, people continue to found Trotskyist parties because they identify with the psychological trauma of early Trotskyism and pick it up and advocate about it as a sort of generational trauma they feel is unresolved and waiting for justice, incompatibility between Trotskyist factions and mainstream Marxist-Leninist factions for various reasons created and still creates physical antagonisms between the parties leading them to want to form separate "countries" or civilizations (that last one is easily phrased in terms of dialectical materialism and has no need for a single 'inciting incident').

{{li|I=M3/LR|Q=618}}How will the Communist Party prevent {{book|Animal Farm}}? -> a question that's annoying but worth answering.

I think these people could become heroes. and here's why. {{book|Animal Farm}}, being an allegory, was meant to be read as a bit of a metaphor, but vegetarians with no knowledge of Communism took what they knew of the book and interpreted it literally. compared with a lot of methods used in the humanities (in particular in the arts; the situation could be a little better in fields like anthropology), taking things literally is inherently closer to Materialism and thus inherently closer to Marxism. if one were to deliberately analyze {{book|Animal Farm}} as if the animals were literally animals and not the Soviet Union, it would come across as the terribly inhumane and un-humanitarian narrative it really is. I mean, just think about it. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to kill a house cat a lot of people would find that concept disturbing. if you accused someone of being the kind of person to take self-determination away from a group of animals trying to save themselves from quite literally being chopped up and eaten if a population of people had power over them, that concept should be equally disturbing — if somebody wanted to cook and eat Russians just for being Russian almost everybody would consider that a severe human rights violation. and the ending for the Soviet Union was vastly worse than the ending of {{book|Animal Farm}}. the book was way too generous, when the reality was that things went back to the way they were before — if what had been going on before was Russians getting eaten, well, that would be happening again. if that were the universe we lived in you couldn't really blame Russians for going a little crazy and launching wars on neighboring countries; if that is the only way for them to have power and the United States not to have power which is "permitted", of course they're going to take the option where they don't get eaten, no matter how evil that option is. 
Animals kill others to survive. most animals in nature don't experience their survival being threatened constantly; in a normal situation the predator or rival patriarch or matriarch usually walks away at some point if they stand their ground long enough. but nation-states are very different because there's never anywhere to run off to permanently. if a conflict begins and the aggressor has no actual incentive to stop it's going to keep going until somebody starts killing people. it's just going to keep going until wars cull enough people (potentially millions and millions) that "the space to run away in" is at some semblance of being restored. because a society is just a lot of Animals standing together like they were one Animal, and societies threaten each other as wholes, but when a threat refuses to go away, Animals kill. anarchists cannot get away from this. they keep trying to assert that a world with too many people in it having wars "isn't necessary" and "there's no need to apply Malthusianism" but no matter what, their theories cannot [[E:existential materialism|explain what generates]] the actual observed behavior of Russians. the longer anarchists try to assert that indigenous ways of life 'were kinder on the earth' and 'were less violent', the longer real-world populations will attempt to kill millions and millions of people until the world literally has the maximum number of human individuals it did when human populations were mostly tribes. the actual material transition to a world where everyone is predisposed to believe secular animism is utterly horrifying.

{{li|I=S2/PT|Q=618}}It's rational for Russians to start wars and kill people if they will never be granted self-determination on the basis of a system where they try to help every Ukrainian and not start wars -> to correctly parse this proposition you have to understand that what is rational and what is ethical are not the same thing, contrary to what Kant says. 
this also doesn't mean that you can assert that 'getting rid of reason' will solve the problem, given that things that are 'rational' in this sense are rational precisely in the sense that they contain a specific [[E:causal logic (logical model of material causation)|sequence of causations]] and happen whether you want them to or not.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Native Americans are capable of genocide / Inasmuch as indigenous populations are human, they are hypothetically capable of coming up with and practicing [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideologies]] that lead to large populational-scale numbers of people dying because other particular groups of people decide that they should die -> we really need to wake people up to the fact that a genocide can consist of five billion people equally drawn from all ethnic groups as opposed to a billion people of one specific ethnic group or nationality, in terms of whether a particular person's ideology can be ""inherently dominating"" enough to inherently lead to killing ten million people. if anybody in the world gets to keep calling a famine in Ukraine a genocide, then there are scenarios where advocating secular animism could itself be advocating for genocide, because it has the potential to kill orders of magnitude more people than that. if everybody would stop saying that about Ukraine, I might consider dropping this.

{{li|I=S2/A|Q=618}}Stalin's government committed genocide in Ukraine {{em|because}} they killed people using [[E:hierarchy (anarchism)|hierarchy]], and whenever a form of hierarchy is used that leads to a lot of people dying, that form of hierarchy is an [[E:domination (anarchism)|inherently dominating ideology]], and it is morally wrong to allow people to construct that form of hierarchy to any extent and morally right to tear it apart at every scale possible however small as soon as possible -> the best argument I can think of that the famine in Ukraine {{em|was}} a genocide. no, it's {{em|not}} very good. but at least it's logical enough to start analyzing, unlike a lot of things anarchists say. 
this.... is how a lot of people conceptualize the French Revolution, I think. ...oh god, that explains a lot. it even kind of explains where [[E:Menshevism (1900s)|Menshevism]] came from. the logic behind Menshevism is basically one that inherently dominating ideas merely need to be stopped. all Idealism is somewhat similar and there is a big overlap in Idealism between anarchism, Menshevism, Yaroshenkoism, Deng Xiaoping Thought, and Western-Marxism. while mainstream Marxism-Leninism is nearly the only philosophy ever to state that people don't actually decide what ideas to believe, and that they are always simply handed ideas at the populational scale rather than a population actually having a mind of its own and actually being able to think. that's the sense in which BlackPantherism is quite respectable, to say that Black people among other ethnicities get ideas from their current conditions {{em|is}} a Materialist philosophy. one remaining question is whether Trotskyism falls into the trap of Idealist revolution or whether it genuinely is a Materialist revolution. I've always analyzed Trotskyism by taking individual Trotskyists or groups and modeling them through Materialist concepts of revolution, but my conclusions often don't sound much like their conclusions. they always talk like Stalin could have chosen not to do "Stalinism" so I don't know.

(generic; popular-culture expression of an Idealist campaign to slay [[E:inherently dominating ideology (anarchism)|dominating ideas]]) -> it took me a long time to put this concept into words, but yeah, I think the real problem with anarchism is that it is defining the concept of revolution based on Idealism. there seems to be a whole concept of an Idealist revolution where people think that if you can slay an "inherently dominating idea" that drives a population on a conceptual level, you can change one historical period into another historical period. now, to use some technical language, this is some unscientific SCP-report plotline {{censor|bullshit}}.

{{li|I=S1/A|tradition=|Q=618}}thoughtcrime (anarchism) -> the motif of anarchists banning ideas in order to prevent harmful forms of society from being created whether those forms of society are really actually harmful or not, and punishing people for spreading what are actually neutral ideas. 
you can't deny it, in actually asserting that all bad behavior starts at ideas and all change starts at prohibiting ideas, anarchism comes way closer to doing this than Communism.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}The act of handing money to another individual is in and of itself a hierarchy / The act of handing money to someone is in and of itself a [[E:spatial slot hierarchy (meta-Marxism)|spatial slot hierarchy]] because it is an act of deciding whether someone is good enough to do a task -> this claim would probably sound much stupider if it was coming out of an anarchist, but fortunately "hierarchy" isn't a big hang-up for me as much as a prosaic statement describing what kind of process is happening. 
that said, this is the thing you need to toss at anarchists who claim that hierarchy and expertise are different things. they really aren't. since the start of Liberal-republicanism expertise has generally been the source of almost all hierarchy. 
I feel like anarchists have shifted to saying "domination" largely so that when they mention "hierarchy" they don't sound as stupid. of course, it doesn't really help given that it's become so abstract that it's unclear what on earth it's even referring to.

{{li|I=S1/HAS/Fy|Q=618}}gender roles in fairy tales -> I just started thinking about this suddenly today because I was trying to think if the concepts of "brother" and "sister" have different connotations in folklore, and then I started thinking about how weirdly often all the more negative characters in fairy tales are female. the wicked stepmother, the witch, maybe the wicked step{{em|sisters}}. but the male characters are often more neutral. kings and princes and medieval artisan type people all just have kind of a neutral presence or sometimes positive. there are some exceptions like 'the fairy godmother' that will be a positive influence. 
I.... don't know what the scope of this entry is because I'm not an expert in the humanities. I think it covers European fairy tales and probably through Eastern Europe into the rest of Asia but I don't really know what the division between "a fairy tale" and "a folktale" is, to me they're kind of the same thing. some people consider "Aladdin" to be broadly in the scope of fairy tales because there is a magic artifact or magic servant character that isn't so different from the fairy godmother. but that extends the geographical range of fairy tales quite a bit. what's the difference between a fairy tale and just a legend that people don't necessarily think is true? I think there's a clear difference between a fairy tale and a "myth" in that myths are religious stories from an ancient time of local gods, and fairy tales are about 'smaller' magical things that sort of just hide themselves in tiny places and cause mischief — "fae" sums up the concept of where fairy tales get their fantastical elements pretty well, you're thinking of a character that is usually pretty small and missable but can also be very powerful, could be the fairy godmother, could be a leprechaun. but I'm pretty confused on the difference between a fairy tale, a folktale, and a legend, because legends can have dragons in them; they don't have to be "historical".

{{li|I=S1/ML|Q=618}}belief (utilization) / believing in (utilizing) / I believe in solving math problems with lambda calculus / I believe in pomodoro timers -> a definition of "belief" which is one of the very few sensible ways to define the phrase "believing in Marxism". 
I think it's arguable that this definition doesn't apply to ideologies like Christianity, or even to a lot of secular systems of ethics; ethics is a potentially wrong descriptive model of reality pretending to be a technique. but, on the bright side, this motif does provide a lot of context for why people like to claim Communism "doesn't work". you could easily say "pomodoro timers don't work!" but if you aren't versed in how people actually use them and the exact conditions where people claim they do work versus what specific kinds of conditions lead them to fail, then you wouldn't necessarily be making a true accusation. at the same time, if you {{em|did}} claim "Pomodoro timers work!" without knowing how to use them, you also might not be making a true claim. that's why the conflict between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism has been so hard to resolve. out of the very limited number of people in the world who knew how to use Marxism at the time, or that do now, not all of those people genuinely understand how it's currently being used. and it's all downhill from there, because as you get further away from them, ordinary people only know less and less. 
you really do learn a lot more about Marxism itself by examining Trotskyist attacks on Marxism than you do by examining a lot of attacks on Marxism inside Liberal-republicanism. and in that, I think they actually have a counter-intuitive effect on consciousness in the grand scheme of things where depending on the specific issue them making errors may be less harmful than them not being there. not {{em|better}} precisely, yet definitely {{em|less bad}}.

this sounds weirdly like I'm on the side of Buddhism over early capitalism. I'm not. I'm just very tired of capitalism acting like it's fully justified to keep power over everything and prevent anything else that would happen after it from forming just because it's better than ancient imperial monarchies. 
if Hegel had known what an "end of history" was, he would have believed that monarchy and feudal orders were the end of history. and now Fukuyama thinks he's not as wrong as Hegel when he does the same thing. honestly... right down to even that thing where you claim a bunch of abstract ideas led to a material system yet were the only possible train of conclusions. capitalist theorists and Kantians are almost exactly just the Hegel of capitalism.

also... funny story, when messing around with writing fiction and trying to throw Snowberg into a dystopia this had caused Valenoern to accidentally reinvent Trotskyism. but that takes a while to explain, and is a story for another day. to keep things short, they really did not know anything about the history of socialism or what Menshevism or Bolshevism were, they just sort of, created a character in the vein of "Emmanuel Goldstein" (that's just an example) from abstract concepts but didn't know that in the case of 1984 that was Trotsky, and so they reinvented Trotskyism. we've had a lot of fun with anticommunist fables and finding Trotsky in them since then.

I wouldn't disagree with this, although... I think there are a few interesting things to note about it. for one, the environment of online videos gives Trotskyists a bizarrely huge advantage because they can all post videos from different countries and make it look like Trotskyism is a lot more omnipresent in any particular country than it really is, as well as like it's a long-standing philosophical tradition (technically not false) which is as rich as mainstream Marxism-Leninism is. online videos make it weirdly easy to "astroturf" the appearance of movements happening more intensely or widely than they actually are.

I've apparently cracked the problem of four word idioms for English without trying to. 
also... I watched this one video that was purposefully making a constructed language where it was impossible for individual words to hold meaning and only an entire sentence could mean something, because the sentence was a hash of a bunch of numbered concepts lined up or something like that. that's almost a real thing with drastically abbreviated propositions — the four words together mean something and each word may mean something specifically next to one of the others but the individual words cease to mean anything by themselves.

this proposition is both wonderful and terrible. it's wonderful in that I actually now have a working model of exactly why it is that anarchisms are overall so persistent and refuse to give up: anarchisms are not actually against Hegelianism, but they see {{em|themselves}} as the entire Hegelian dialectic. the concept of Stalin trying to model society as local structures transitioning into other structures? {{em|anarchists believe in that}} but they believe that very process right there must take the form of entire Communities burning each other down to create better Communities. it's terrible in that anarchisms will never realize this. they will never realize what they actually are, and they will always act like "freedom" actually is something rather than just an absence and the (sometimes justified) hatred of things they don't like and want to fight.

Liberal-republican philosophy is hell-bent on the concept that people really can be considered in isolation, which causes all human beings to conceptualize themselves as petty bourgeoisie, or worse, to actively regenerate the petty bourgeoisie. the concept that [[E:tent of freedom poles|people "have human rights" {{em|as individuals}} and then they come together and have individual human rights as individuals {{em|together}}]] is absolutely lethal to a functioning society.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}The "failure" of Wikipedia to provide a reliable source (presumed to be as reliable as grade school texts, not university-level texts) is actually the failure of anarchism, and of a particular kind of named [[E:anarchy (meta-Marxism)|anarchy]] -> I don't know what this particular kind of anarchy is called, but I'll find a name for it eventually. it has something to do with the notion of culture products or information products as open and evolving instead of closed, when their content really should have been closed. (this does not refer to the concept of "open" or "closed" source code, it's a totally different kind of "closed" or "open".) funny enough, the Free Software movement has already figured out how to make Freed things with closed contents — we call them software packages.

{{li|I=S2/Fy/MX|Q=618}}Corporate [[E:art product (economics)|culture products]] are not objects communicated from a director to each audience member, but are in practice generally objects communicated from one fan to another fan; not only is the "artistic vision" of one particular specific individual a ridiculous thing to expect culture products to have, but at the end of the day all corporate culture products are ultimately just pre-made commercial fan fiction -> the way you have to fix the fan fiction problem is so specific. I've had several "solutions" to it that were probably wrong. but I think the crux of it lies here. the most important relationship in the pipeline of culture products is them being passed back and forth between fans. on occasion quite literally when someone hands someone else a Steam code. most of the time a little more figuratively, in the form of let's plays, theory videos, and the construction of alternate timelines. capitalism makes a huge deal out of the sanctity of the corporation for no good reason. ideally what you want is the paid experts completing their task of churning out culture products without a lot of ado about how great or awful the workers are personally for particular actions and decisions, instead they just complete the task quietly and go home, and then you want the fans to be allowed to pass back and forth whatever they want to regardless of whether it has been modified. and you don't want the central party-nation freaking out about the airtight seal between corporation and fans and the fans "wrecking society by doing too much"; that should not be a real offense. instead, if anything, you want the central party simply noticing where the seal is breaking and doing inquiries into whether different kinds of products should be produced. it {{em|might be the case}} hypothetically that the ideal scenario is the seal breaking totally and government not even having to bother re-connecting any of the points of production to formal corporations because there is simply enough stuff that nobody actually has to pay for culture products any more and generally considers them all to cost zero or literally a couple loose coins at a thrift store. 
the last thing you want to see happening (ever) is a "Chinese map fiasco" where people perceive government as a brutal predator that munches on human social activity purely to digest it and start scheming about how to stay out of its mouth because they know everything only gets worse after you fall in. you can never let that happen because the moment it happens the whole of socialist transition will disintegrate. the petty bourgeoisie regenerates in a heartbeat and it happens anywhere and everywhere. you're much more at its mercy than you ever could have realized.

{{li|I=S2/MX/DG/A|Q=618}}The United States has the most incentive of any country to get rid of capitalism because it has the most minorities; there are so many distinct minorities that politics itself has come to revolve around minorities, but because each of them contains so few people under such isolation, not a single one of them is going to become free of attempts to exterminate it under capitalism or reformism

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning Malthusianism is genocide / Whenever you choose to say a statement in Malthusianism you have chosen to cause other people to be bigoted {{YouTube|gv4R-hix9wM}} -> no... that isn't how it works. as a framework, statements inside Malthusianism could hypothetically be true without all of it being true, so if those are already true and you say them, you didn't cause them to happen. this is like saying that if you predict a box to contain a dead cat when somebody filled it out of sight then you caused it to contain a dead cat, even if the other options are unrelated to cats, like the other option is the box is empty. overpopulation leading to bad outcomes can hypothetically be the case whether you want it to or not, but the important thing to realize is that that doesn't have any bearing on what the actual bad outcomes are. the bad outcomes might not be anything like the simplistic scenarios in Malthus' essays of overcrowding or 'eating babies'. the bad outcomes might look more like an increase in people randomly murdering each other because everyone increasingly feels like everyone else is threatening their existence and they need to protect their existence because 'all individual existences deserve to be respected' {{em|or else}}; despite what everybody wants nobody will yield to anybody else and so people get furious and kill in order to regain control. if everybody's doing that, you don't have control over it; you can't just say "believing in overpopulation is bad" or "if we don't things will get better" to fix it. because when people really truly believe things "Should" work a certain way, especially if that "Should" is an ethical prescription, they won't listen to anything you say until reality magically fixes itself to be that way. people are just going to get angrier and angrier every single day there are too many people and those people are disorganized and attempt with steadily increasing blind rage to punish all the disorganized people that have not been planned or controlled in any way for not being controlled in any way. there's really no "society", "social-ism", "community" -ing out of that situation, because other people's ethical imperatives are not a social construct — you can only obey whatever the {{censor|fuck}} other people tell you to do or risk them doing violence to you... or kill them, I suppose. ethics is an infamously unyielding form of philosophy. if there existed any form of belief where everybody spontaneously giving it up would actually solve all our problems, then everybody giving up the entire concept of ethics would be it. think about it: every right-Liberal who tries to say that accumulating wealth is good relies on property rights, which rely on ethics. every nazi that tries to say trans people are destroying the United States relies on a right to not have this "intrude" on their lives, which relies on ethics. if everyone really actually got rid of ethics, they wouldn't be able to defend bad things either, because the whole concept that individuals can make "correct choices" that are superior to other choices in creating a future they would be satisfied with would be gone. there would be vastly more incentive to question your previous decisions and deconstruct arbitrary beliefs if ethics did not exist at all. "post-structuralist philosophy"? "prejudices" and "biases" that will never make sense as analytical tools once you stop being the person that wrote the paper? how about we just get rid of ethics and accomplish the same thing way better with way fewer problems. 
I think the thing that bothered me the most about this video is.... the Overshoot Theory video I remember from a while back was also leaning on Native Americans. Overshoot man was like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, overpopulation!}} while these people are like, {{i|because Native Americans have lived more sustainably, no overpopulation!}}. it honestly feels like a non sequitur in both cases. I feel like overpopulation genuinely has nothing to do with whether North American tribes 'have lived more sustainably', positively or negatively. the cases where you'd see overpopulation come from a genuinely different kind of society that operates through entirely different material processes. which means you can't analogize a smaller society to it.

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}I'm not here to educate you / It's not my job to educate you (statement that minority groups do not have to explain oppression) -> I don't think you can treat this statement as generally true. funny story, I've been picking up books on Native American history when I go to used book sales, and like, these claim to be educational, but you open them up, and the last one I was reading was treating the tribe in question as very mystical. it was trying to be positive and imply there was nothing wrong with people having a different culture but it overall still ended up presenting things like Rolling Thunder (he was the main topic of the book) had a fundamentally magical way of thinking, that he's almost some kind of wizard with magic occult powers in the way he thinks as opposed to his culture being something that can ever be "normal". I think the book was from 1976 if I remember right, not recently. 
so like, telling people to go educate themselves and implying they can't talk to actual people to learn what their problems are could be very harmful. I suspect that it's old books like these that a lot of anarchists are learning about other groups of people from and effectively where they're getting their anarchism. or that even if that's not literally the case, that you can still study that example to learn about the problems with the thing anarchists are actually doing. 
I think there is like.... a nuance that's totally lost on anarchists about the interaction of individuals or populations. if there's somebody that goes around talking like Rolling Thunder, you can't really just take what he says and present it to other people as his fundamental way of thinking. people in industrial populations are going to take it negatively. there might be one or two people who literally take it as 'backward' and say mean things, but that's not what you need to watch for, the most likely harm you need to keep an eye out for is people softly deciding that tribal populations can't understand modern science and that the way of thinking they have presented is part of their fundamental essence that 'blocks' them from absorbing the understandings people have in industrial society. this is racist, because it puts you into the same rhetorical position as the people who were recently arguing that Black South Africans 'didn't want the farmland taken by Afrikaners because of their culture' and {{em|therefore}} it was okay for European apartheid states to descend in and take whatever they want. I think there's a decent argument to be made that claiming someone like Rolling Thunder has a fundamentally different way of thinking 'than European science' is flat out supporting colonialism and is The Colonizer Attitude, because, just look at its results. 
this leaves open the rather broad question of how exactly you can merge tribal populations' ways of thinking with modern science and the findings of industrial societies. we know it's not optional to do that. we know it's necessary to do it to not essentialize people and treat indigenous people as stupid. we know that anarchists trying to present older and more mystical ways of thinking as 'the natural way of thinking' is not okay because it what it effectively does is allow White people to appropriate indigenous culture for their own benefit but still deny that culture to the actual indigenous people and hand all the power of people to determine themselves, to be able to talk about all topics intelligently as the adults in the room and make sophisticated decisions on various topics and involving several different philosophies, to Europeans. putting yourself in a position where other people will essentialize you to one particular level of ideological development is dangerous. I think it's the anarchists that need to be told this more than the tribal populations; they've been through a lot and I think to some extent they know this. anarchists, on the other hand... I feel like it's vaguely possible that some day in the future, people will talk about anarchists as inherently mystical people and weirdly racialize all anarchists {{em|exactly}} the way they've done with tribes in North or South America.

let's think about this. a 'console generation' forms in order to raise the prices of the products (largely by producing them new), while decreasing the cost of entry. if the discipline is new, it won't be overrun with expensive equipment, stacks and stacks of money poured into expertise, and the prestige of certain brands creating natural monopolies. after a while, all the corporations in a given market have made their money and the products are everywhere such that neither can new corporations make money nor can old ones earn any more. so then the market resets and an entirely new market is created. a bunch of hype goes around to present the new thing as really great although it was created in order for the new products made for it to not have to be very good at first. and apart from video games, this happens for the general concept of mediums and a lot of physical formats. 
honestly. I trust this more than Habermas' conception of history as some kind of progression of morality where what is progress could become entirely subjective; at least you can measure what a sideways progression from one set of events to another {{em|is}}. 
console wars + History is the progression of generational subcultures = this.

{{li|I=S2/ES|Q=618}}The middle ground between sense and nonsense is still insane / I believe 2+2=4, but in the interest of representing those who believe 2+2=22, my platform is 2+2=11 (counter-claim)

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}The majority of Jews support Israel {{YouTube|_Q0TxCCuXyU}} / Some Jews don't support Israel (counter-claim) -> this observation really destroys anti-essentialism as a path to truth, doesn't it. superficially it seems to support it, but when you look at how the counter-claim is actually used... it's used to defend Idealism as "not always" being fatally flawed while most uses of it at best make it wholly irrelevant to explaining anything. anti-essentialism is often just a back-handed statement that Idealism doesn't actually explain real life, not realizing that in saying that it's slamming the Idealist models it's supposed to save.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}Some Jews don't support Israel {{YouTube|_Q0TxCCuXyU}} -> U.S. people don't know anything but Idealism, the treatment of everything as abstract qualities. so they have to take on "Jews" and "anti-semitism" as abstract concepts. when they do that, it predisposes them to racist understandings of what various ethnic groups "are". so then they bring out the point of "but surely one of them doesn't support Israel" (anti-essentialism) to badly try to prove that Idealism isn't racist. 
it doesn't fix anything of course. Defining everything by what it's not leads you to defend anything and everything including the U.S. military.

{{li|I=S2/LR|Q=618}}Imperialism is nonviolent / Anarchism definitionally requires violence; this is to imply and nearly to state that a warlike, potentially genocidal empire is perfectly okay and recommended because of the fact only a few people at the edge of an empire have to fight over borders and most people in an empire are nonviolent {{YouTube|Cl04NNVDwD0}} -> you wonder how anybody goes along with "settler-colonialism" and thinks it's a good idea in the first place. this is how. it's actually nonviolence-colonialism. 
Idealism is dangerous to humanity, it really is. 
anarcho-NATO-ism + ?? = Imperialism is nonviolent.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Marxism before the year 2020 has been a theory of ideological segregation more than a theory of social progress -> why is it that walling off whole fortress states has been more effective than trying to spread filaments of radicals inside class societies? I think the example of China and Taiwan {{em|splitting}} and the example of Texas defeating the freethinkers are very instructive on why this happened

{{li|I=S2/A/MX|Q=618}}Despite the observable historical fact that various social structures can transition into other structures, it is generally {{em|easier}} to create any of the later structures humanity invents by starting from scratch rather than from working with structures that already exist, due to the fact that ruling classes are generally the clusters of people that are more inherently powerful and able to conquer and expand than the masses or clusters of people they rule over -> this is one of the best arguments that anarchism and Trotskyism each have going for them. but it's also one of the best arguments for Deng Xiaoping Thought if you don't totally dismiss sublation processes. this gives way to Deng Xiaoping Thought much faster than it justifies anarchism.

{{li|I=S1/Fy/ML|Q=618}}treating the protagonists of anticommunist fables as unreliable narrators

{{li|I=S1/IV|Q=618}}dictatorship of the proletariat (Trotskyism) -> this is apparently its own specific thing. it seems it's typically defined in terms of how well the soviets can defend the overall country and any governing bodies against the re-emergence of capitalism.

{{li|I=S2/IV/MX|Q=618}}Soviet structures are vulnerable to being overcome by petty classes; soviet structures are not guaranteed to remain orange because depending on their class and preferred palette of social structures the individual national-employees inside them can add together to turn the structure charcoal, blue, or strawberry -> Trotskyism is weird. it has moments where it's totally unconvicing, and then it has moments where after you've been listening to the actually-okay theorists you have to go out of your way to find, it almost sounds like it got something right. this week, I saw that Trotskyists seemed to be describing the dictatorship of the proletariat as control by one big sea of soviets that are responsible for operating all the other organs of government — the thinking is that if all the soviets are made of proletarians and the soviets are orange, the soviets will keep all of the other structures from turning strawberry or any other unfavorable ideology. but then I thought about it for a bit, and I realized that this isn't an airtight strategy. in the real world, proletarians can level up into non-proletarians through small-scale processes, and it happens all the time whenever there aren't enough job slots or people simply don't fit into existing business territories' "culture". it's very easy for a country that's full of proletarians one moment to slowly morph into a country of skilled workers that all want their own businesses but will also complain when the reality of running them is much harder than they dreamed. 
this became apparent to me as soon as I saw Gramsci talking about a council for the "self-employed". that isn't a red or orange structure, that's a blue or strawberry structure. and those kinds of structures can undo a revolution. but it's also trivial for more of them to be produced through misapplied education or training. if the soviets have full control, it's easy for petty classes to rebel against all the orange soviets and start taking control of the whole country through whatever limited ability they have to assemble together groups of people that outcompete surrounding workers. 
dictatorship of the proletariat (Trotskyism) + proletarians promoting into Careerists = Soviet structures are vulnerable to being overcome by petty classes.

{{li|I=S1/AS/HM|Q=618}}moral evolution (critical theory) / Hegelian evolution of morality / historical development of societies as conceptualized around morality or ethics [https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/04/01/habe-a01.html] / procedural theory of rationality (Liberal-republican ethics; Habermas) -> the concept in Habermas of modeling either large or small changes in societies through changes in morality and the resulting changes in society. I'd hate this except that it gets really funny when you apply it to world civilization and actual changes between historical periods, revealing a lot about how imperialism works; in a way, it's so bad it's good. I guess that's about what you should expect to get when you start with Hegel. Liberal-republicanism is frustrating but Hegel really isn't so bad in the end.

{{li|I=S1/LR|Q=618}}deformed Liberal states / degenerated Liberal states -> the motif of Liberal-republican countries looking at other nation-states and regarding them as deformed versions of themselves that need to be punished until they form correctly. 
deformed Liberal states + moral evolution (Trotskyism) = deformed workers' states.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Morality itself tends to favor a world of "small business hell" simply because the assumptions that lead to people creating morality {{em|happen to lead there}} and all Idealist statements when put together spit out some kind of real-world consequence -> I find it frustrating that people will start from a set of arbitrary Ideals and then just deontologically assume that if those Ideals are good then whatever they produce must also be good. to me Habermas' theory of moral consciousness just doesn't make sense as a material theory of history because in one way all moral or ethical values are always arbitrary; there will always be a point where people assume that what they're currently doing is morally good or superior just because it's the thing a lot of people are doing and none of them want to stop doing it while any other group of people must be morally bad just for doing a different thing that threatens to replace that thing, even before they actually demand other people trade in what they're doing for the new thing.

{{li|I=S2/ML|Q=618}}Idealism produces material outcomes / All Idealist statements or combinations of Idealist statements lead to some kind of real-world consequence -> there are many ways to take this. one of the surface conclusions is that Idealism isn't as explanatory as Materialism. one of the most interesting conclusions is that you can "meta-game" Idealism and figure out the best Ideals to tell people in order to get them to create particular material results. this {{em|is}} essentially lying to people to manipulate their behavior, which if it were up to me I don't really like, but a lot of people believe that most human beings' understanding of the world will never go above that level, which might make it ethical under some theories of ethics.

{{li|I=S2/ES|Q=618}}Prejudice and structural inequality are not the same thing; getting rid of prejudice does not necessarily get rid of structural inequality [https://simplyputpsych.co.uk/psych-101-1/prejudice-reduction-and-the-contact-hypothesis-what-social-psychology-got-right-what-it-missed-and-why-contact-alone-is-not-enough] -> well. I have to agree with this. I'm puzzled why anarchists in general aren't better at understanding this. but the blue anarchists did get something right.

{{li|I=S2/HAS|Q=618}}Contact between populations reduces prejudice when four conditions are met: 1) equal status within the contact situation 2) common goals 3) cooperation 4) support from authorities or social norms (Allport 1954, Pettigrew) [https://simplyputpsych.co.uk/psych-101-1/prejudice-reduction-and-the-contact-hypothesis-what-social-psychology-got-right-what-it-missed-and-why-contact-alone-is-not-enough]

{{li|I=S2/Fy|Q=618}}today I was "thinking"... / 'today I was thinking—' 'stop that' / 'today I was thinking—' 'you?! I can't believe it' -> the motif of somebody cutting off a statement where somebody was thinking about some specific thing and focusing on the concept of "thinking".

{{li|I=S1/DFy/PT|Q=618}}Eren Yeager / nazi Eren Yeager (in context of imagining different versions of the story based around different ideologies)

{{li|I=S1/DFy/DX|Q=618}}Dengist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was Western-Marxist (strawberry Marxist, Gramscian, Dengist / Deng Xiaoping Thought) -> so, {{book|Attack on Titan}} has a dumb premise. it reads like a campfire horror story told by nazis in very little irony. but it {{em|is}} really funny to imagine some of the same central themes being used in an approximately Marxist work. like, instead of it being a nazi campfire story the titans are trying to scale a "Berlin wall", or penetrate China or North Korea to take them back for Liberal-republicanism, the titans are hiding out on Taiwan, the titans are sealing people into Cuba and not letting {{em|them}} leave. there obviously wouldn't be a focus on the concept of the big antagonist monsters being 'impure' or 'diseased', that element of it probably wouldn't exist. it would just be kaiju trying to break into the country and do something horrifying. it's gotta be a little over the top. it's gotta be about turning them all into kaiju for some nefarious but useful purpose, like, I dunno, the kaiju feed off negativity and if they all turn into kaiju and fight each other the whole population of kaiju becomes stronger. everyone is horrified about the invasion and it brings them all together.

{{li|I=S1/Fy/A|Q=618}}anarchist Eren Yeager / Eren Yeager if {{book|Attack on Titan}} was anarchist -> {{em|this}} is why I am having an increasingly hard time telling the difference between Deng Xiaoping Thought and anarchisms. like, once again, anarchism succeeds when you build a wall around it — probably metaphorically — and wait for the outside to tire itself out. I can't tell the difference between Gramscian Eren Yeager and anarchist Eren Yeager. 
oh god when I just go saying ideologies in a sentence of course my brain is going to shout "Trotskyist Eren Yeager". I don't know what that means. I don't know what that means at all. I dunno, like, the enemies are more like Reptilians or Yeerks and they're hiding out in the central government and nobody wants to believe it so the anti-alien squads are like trying to team up across regions? I tried.

{{li|I=S2/MX|Q=618}}Sociality distorts human beings' view of material reality -> anarchists are going to get so upset if you try to argue this at them. they'll try to argue that reality is whatever comes naturally to living things, and different states of natural for each living species must naturally want to go together, blah blah blah. [*] but they're all privileged. they haven't experienced a state of truly being fenced out of society by thousands and millions of people that all simultaneously agree they don't like you (probably without having met you or having much of any idea what they're doing). they especially haven't experienced it owing to the existence of anarchism, because anarchism already selected for people like them. but they should wise up to the fact that anarchism doesn't really pass the veil of ignorance with flying colors. it's quite easy to end up on the wrong side of "community" where you simply have nobody and nothing and also everyone assumes you must be a bad person just because you haven't claimed an exclusive spot in Community that supposedly you only have to be nice to people to get and follow morality though in reality it's much more difficult and complicated and trivial to simply be born wrong and fail to survive the ecological parameters of the 'community-icene'. I think that as a period of biological life the Anthropocene truly began at tribal society, not at industrial society. it was the ability to form entire ecosystems made of nothing but humans that changed things, but {{em|if anarchists are correct}} that the natural state of humans and human psychology is in tribes then all the current destruction of the environment ultimately came from the characteristics of tribes. tribal populations are not wholly innocent for all the horrors of global empire and ecological destruction if at the end of the day we're {{em|all}} still tribes and they're the only ones trying to disclaim that there are bad things about that. really, as crazy as it sounds, they might be accidentally benefiting from a corrupt system that has killed great numbers of people. of course, if humans don't have a seemingly eternal resting state of being in tribes that we have no choice but to return to which in turn implies we are currently tribes in denial and will still be tribes for the next hundred thousand years, then tribal populations carry no blame for what industrial societies have done. 
(* why didn't they say that about workers' states and the healthy state of the Soviet Union versus the very disordered states that occurred at every moment after tearing it apart? they have even less excuse than Trotskyists. Trotskyists wilfully wanting to overwrite another Marxism with their own Marxism is at least logical even if it's terrible.)

{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}"Indigenous people" marks a statement as racist / Saying "indigenous people" marks a sentence as containing racial stereotypes {{YouTube|fwecpbB1DPs}}
{{li|I=F2/ES|Q=618}}Mentioning ethnic groups is racist / Mentioning an ethnic group without mentioning a specific individual marks a sentence as containing potentially-harmful racial stereotypes -> this is what you have to believe for the above statement to be true. like, if "indigenous people" marks a racial stereotype, then saying a more specific group of people like "Inuit" should equally mark a racial stereotype — how does the person you're talking to {{em|know}} that you're giving correct information about all Inuit people and not just saying something false? but if this is true, you couldn't go to Congress and say "Black people" or "Mexican immigrants" for any legitimate purpose without mentioning individuals that supposedly make the example truer. does it actually make statements more accurate to include specific individuals? I feel like it adds nothing but also subtracts nothing. 
this is a really weird criterion for judging whether statements are accurate. I know where it comes from, it comes from people trying to judge everything through positivism and claim that Lived Experiences are a pathway to truth while a lack of Lived Experiences is a pathway to falsity. it's still really weird. it doesn't seem to accomplish the thing it sets out to accomplish at all, and just seems to make all statements said about any group of people more worthy of doubting. "White people have the colonizer attitude"? maybe not!! Ben was doing that, but did you ask Carla?? "Black people experience structural racism"? maybe not!! you didn't mention an individual so in theory you might be racist for even saying that. 
Mentioning ethnic groups is racist + Anti-essentialism is a pathway to truth = Pointing out racism is racist.

{{li|I=S2/ES/ML|Q=618}}Referring to Communists without mentioning a specific individual is unacceptably prejudiced / If mentioning ethnic groups without mentioning a specific individual is racist, which is to imply that talking about groups of people in the abstract rather than as a particular countable number of concrete objects is racist, then mentioning "Communists" or "Cubans" or "people who support Stalin" without naming a specific individual for evaluation is equally prejudiced; every time somebody has said "tankies" or "totalitarians" or "Stalinist(s)" outside a particular context has been an unacceptably prejudiced statement -> this is another loophole in this. god I love it when really bad propositions break open so bad they wrap around to supporting Communism

{{li|I=S1/Fy|Q=618|Q2=618}}treasure raiders (fiction) -> I just read a story about an Indiana Jones type character who loots ancient artifacts and it really got me thinking about the whole problem of Queen Ruby and the gold walls and the meaning of gold and treasures in medieval fantasy again. I feel like a lot of modern concepts of what "stealing" is are actually passed down directly from a long time ago and upper classes trying to defend their power, and everybody just forgot what it all even was saying because it still superficially made sense. so. is an artifact really some kind of sign that a kingdom has been "producing value" imbuing value into the artifacts, or is it the case that someone stealing an artifact is actually a problem because the artifact itself never had inherent internal value to begin with, and in fact, the treasure raider is actually just appropriating status which normally is awarded through very specific pathways? I feel like the "value" of these kinds of artifacts is a bit of an illusion concealing the real relationships within ancient societies. 
this gets more obvious in capitalism when the real wealth is business territories, and in a way, all currency only represents pieces of business territories and the apparent capability to run a business territory. that is the kind of thing I'm saying. I think something a little like that but not exactly like that applies to feudal orders and like, tenure? something like that. and this is why Queen Ruby can't just declare that gold is inherently good at making things happen like it was actually a form of magic.

I think it's that problem of ethical epicycles where on various things people will go through a chain of reasoning and then suddenly derail it because it didn't fit some external principle that doesn't match the rest of their theory at all. I wish people would be honest and just say the thing they interrupted the first theory with is their real theory. even if it's a theory that's really dumb on the surface like 'things that are prejudiced are inherently bad' (deontology {{i|a la}} Habermas), like, we get further if you admit that that's your primary theory and then we can get into exactly where it came from.

dialectical reversals are a genuinely tricky concept, and yet they're still core to what Marxism is. although we've seen them happen many times in history they only happen rarely. it's easy to call them wrong and say something isn't a dialectical reversal that is, and turn against a beneficial movement. it's easy to call them wrong and say something is a dialectical reversal that isn't, and start spinning a backward-facing change as progress or at least as higher priority to defend the country than other forward-facing changes. sometimes people will correctly call a given dialectical process as high priority while it stands in contradiction to the rights of a minority demographic, such as the Soviet Union downplaying gay or trans movements over national unity, and people will get very mad. when I see people getting mad like this I know they've failed to understand some of the actual methods of Marxism and current-day problems for fixing Marxism. I hate to say that, but there really are Western-Marxists and psychoanalysts that misunderstand Marxism just badly enough they take the wrong side on real historical questions that have happened. you can't do that. Third-World countries can't afford to act like morality substitutes for a theory of history or they "understand" questions just because they have the answer at the back of the book. 
I think the crux of all this is that dialectical materialism has not been clarified and explained to people adequately and it's just too muddy and imprecise to describe a lot of real-world situations, while if it included concepts such as separating and joining unique country identities and trade between unique countries factoring into dialectical processes and the relationships between individuals and laws and populations and diplomacy where everything is a bunch of unique rippable tearable objects and the object borders and physical biological organisms matter, the same dialectical materialism would become useful again. like, if you could describe the dialectical reversal that would allow Trotskyism to tear out of the Soviet Union and transition into a workers' state without striving to hurt its "older brother", it wouldn't be hard to get to the level where you could describe LGBT movements and the transition out of Deng Xiaoping Thought and everything else. the hang-up is just things like individual living peasants and living Trotskyist theorists and populational borders and self-determination, and the confused arguments people get into about "democracy!!" when they're actually talking about material borders and arrangements and identity distinctions and countable Cultures and they don't know they are. 
meta-Marxism explicitly recognizes the possibility of dialectical reversals. it doesn't try to dance around Marxism "being about culture and ideology now" or anything of the sort. equally, it looks down on people trying to say that every single crisis is about to lead to a dialectical reversal. if you have no actual predictive power of whether it will or not you aren't doing meta-Marxism, and you also arguably aren't succeeding at Marxism.

I have no issue with that, of course. but, this is the kind of dimensionality that "Item dimension" or "Item dimensionality" refers to in the context of all these numbered Items. the simple [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(abstract_data_type)#Terminology depth] of a rooted tree that we are referring to as dimensionality. 
the first place I saw treed dimensionality was either in statistics — "n-dimensional analysis" — or in reference to quantum numbers, where once again you have multiple degrees of freedom where things can slide along axes, and it seems possible though not certain that some people are literally confusing them with cube dimensionality and turning them into spatial dimensions.

let's take quarks. quarks actually exchange something between them, distributing a particular quantity or directionality around so it sums to zero. that's fairly easy to understand in three dimensions, if you take an oversimplified analogy of a ring of three things bending one direction and bending the other direction to not tip over. this object would be conserving downward forces. quarks, for some reason, are always sending strong interactions to each other, and "giving them back" somewhere else because it's far easier to do that than break a color-confined object apart. it's a little like part of water moving and pulling the rest of the water along with it. that is already a whole object. we can already see the whole object, at least in the form of a proton. where are you putting the color charge? 
this is the kind of thing that made me weirdly suspect string theory was confusing treed dimensionality in the form of quantum numbers adding variables with real spatial dimensions that exist near the Planck length

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="731" data-dimension="S2" data-submitter="RD">Curvature makes integers into infinities / Curvature is the transformation of integers into infinities -> sometimes I just stand around and think about pi. ever done that? pi is irrational. pi is the multiplier between rational and irrational quantities. technically any number of irrational numbers have that same purpose of being multipliers or conversion factors as well as numbers. why? why is pi actually in formulas instead of just some crazy number mathematicians made up while putting together Dedekind cuts and comparing sets of numbers? today I think I kind of figured it out, maybe. characteristics of pi: pi can be expressed as an infinite sum. because it's possible to express as a decimal, it can be taken as this quantity or multiplier that as you zoom in gets more and more precise and so it adds on another tiny measurement again and again. a circle is like a polygon with infinite sides. you can use an integral to approximate and calculate the perimeter of a circle. (although to be quite honest I don't know what the integral is off the top of my head. I have this wonderful intuition for math objects but I am terrible at actual equations unless they transcribe what I was already imagining.) okay. so when you set up some kind of integral to calculate the perimeter of the circle and spit out pi, "dx" is an infinitesimal-object or operator {{em|thing}} that is acting like an infinitely divisible number. dx is an infinitesimal maker. it's clear the moment you create that integral that there is something a little odd about circles. you can't calculate around a circle normally using Euclidean geometry, and it somewhat takes infinite sums or "dx" to get you all the way around the circle by adding all those teeny tiny infinitely precise measurements. 
now here's the crazy thing that blew my mind today. Cantor illustrated the difference between infinities by drawing a straight number line, and then drawing a curve against it that contained more numbers. and that blew me away. it sounds silly that something like that would be a mathematics breakthrough ({{TTS|html=abbr|tts=circa|c.}} 1872) but no, it is. it shows that curvature itself is a departure from integer mathematics. a simple Cartesian plane with integer axes doesn't contain the numbers that make a circle; all circles are non-Euclidean. 
so... is it really so weird to say that a black hole contains infinities? what if the black hole really does contain infinities, but only because we were trying to make infinities cooler and more mysterious than they actually were? I mean, you look at the thing, and the outside of it aside from the burning disk of stuff is one big 3d circle — despite that being true of stars and planets, but those do also have gravity. what if gravity is just lines turning into circles, and it creates infinities in equations because circles and ellipses are infinities? maybe spacetime curvature really is an infinity, but it's always an infinity, because every time you bow a straight line into a curve it contains something small but infinite, an infinitesimal. in principle there's an irrational number or a repeating infinitesimal between every line and every curved path, including the curved path that bows an apple and the earth together. if gravity was a perfect circle pi would be the bridge to gravity. it is already infinitely long.

</li><li class="field_geo" value="733" data-dimension="S2" data-submitter="RD">Surreal numbers are for counting countable infinities -> yeah. that's what they are. they're the same thing as Cantor laying out the countable infinities and showing you get different size infinities the more you curve the number line, only they use omega instead of infinity. a surreal number can count the number of decimal places in an irrational number. that's the one thing they're good for. the main reason we don't use them commonly is we just tend to avoid infinities rather than use them like numbers, so when we really have to use an infinity we grudgingly say "infinity". but if we did math just a little different, and used both curved number lines and straight ones at once, using surreal numbers (or maybe just irrational numbers?) to quantify the curvature of various arc coordinate systems from Euclidean geometry, then infinity would go away in favor of countable but unimaginably big or small surreal numbers. think of it like complex numbers or three-dimensional grids, but instead of just adding one dimensional axis through numbers, you're adding a curvature as a dimensional coordinate which warps the passage of points through the other two axes. I don't know if that's better as an axis or a number adjustment. I guess you could do it either way depending on what kind of problem you need curvature to solve. 
I mean, think about solving a simple geometry problem on the surface of the earth, but trying to calculate the real distance, so you get the total material to build a bridge or the total volume of a very big lake or something. that would benefit from a curvature coordinate system, where polar spherical coordinates over the whole earth could be overkill. the curvature grid would be confusing at first and yet better zoomed in on the relevant information. it also might be really nice for rendering virtual game worlds, because given at least a 2000s level computer it might optimize well - maybe. 
the kicker is when you get used to curvature coordinates, you could have some fun times with Newtonian gravity. set the individual curvature coordinates with appropriate curvature for each planet. look at the curvature coordinates. see if they form their own shape in some other coordinate system, or generally what they're doing. (probably re-expressing the gravity equation, but maybe it will make more sense this way.) slowly start solving small-scale gravity and figuring out how small it is. can the fine structure constant help you?

if you thought that {{book|Winning Ways}} making up a bunch of new numbers had no purpose, no. by one definition, numbers themselves are the root of all geometry and all coordinate systems which in turn affect all mathematical functions and how easy it is to express them.

this "transcendental status of the signifier" is the "totalization" thing all over again, or maybe before it. these blue anarchists always want to believe that not creating an identity or set of principles will somehow leave everybody included when there's really no guarantee that anyone in particular will be included in anything because groups are always finite things with finite numbers of slots. both blue and charcoal anarchists are totally obsessed with the notion that identity is somehow a form of government, that identity causes "hierarchy" and the ownership of groups over areas or groups. but it's such a misplaced thing to worry about. that isn't what causes ownership and domination of areas or populations, it's the sheer process of material people pushing each other back and forth and in and out while groups and areas are both finite and can only hold so many people. material reality is the thing that truly holds tyrannical power over anarchists, and they won't admit it. it's like even when the only enemy is understanding material reality they still don't want to fight back. 
this is so bizarre. at some times it feels like Badiou is closer to Materialism and at some times it feels like Deleuze is closer to Materialism. Badiou is making me think that maybe Deleuze and Guattari are further from Materialism than he is, but then he makes such strange mistakes of his own I don't know.

I just wrote a bunch of {{em|stuff}} on [[Special:PermanentLink/?|an Ontology entry]] that was a bit verbose and definitely contained some tall claims. so, it's best I write a little reminder here so at the very least I can take my own advice.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="A" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Dragon Ball misrepresents Kamehameha / Dragon Ball misinforms people about Kamehameha -> I honestly don't think this is entirely true. a story has different dimensions to it: facts, and abstract "lessons". as far as the second aspect, Dragon Ball takes a very Materialist perspective about empire that is not so different from the concept of defending Hawaii from empire. does it do this clumsily? of course. but it's not like it didn't actually try to step out of the perspective of Imperial Japan in particular as it relates to Hawaii in order to take a perspective that would defend Hawaii. the only thing you can argue is that it did that particular task badly.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="Fy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Pokémon Sun/Moon is fundamentally stuck in the perspective of Japanese empire and not in the perspective of Hawaii -> I don't know whether this is true or false, but it's definitely something somebody could claim. 
points for: A) Kamehameha is treated as a special technique instead of a person B) Necrozma the [[E:Plasma Spark (Ultraman series)|Communist sun]] Pokémon is an antagonist: anticommunism, maintenance of what exists, communists are too strong because they are too weak 
points against: A) the game doesn't appear to treat Alola as tourism despite every Pokémon game being a travelogue made by tourists

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="A" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Postcolonialisms {{TTS|tts=and|&}} Proudhon are compatible / Postcolonial frameworks and Proudhonism are compatible -> I'm pretty sure they're not, and this is one of the biggest problems sinking anarchism for the past 10-20 years. 
Greedy pepople are a class + = Postcolonial frameworks and Proudhonism are compatible.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" data-tradition="ES onto PT" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The "13/50" statistic actually represents huge numbers of Black people being profiled and arrested without being convicted [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_journalism#link-redacted] -> I never bought into the statistic so I never thought it through that much but honestly that makes a whole lot more sense 
edit: ...what. that is a generated page. [https://app.gptzero.me/] what the {{censor|fuck}}. okay. [[E:AI-generated anti-racism|I guess this is a new motif now.]] I guess this blog is not allowed on anything but the entry about AI-generated anti-racism now. the proposition can stay where it is because propositions are just claims and claims can come from anywhere. but yeah, I think we want real citations.

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM / game theory" value="618" data-dimension="S">Hobbesian trap (game theory) [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q10263552] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobbesian_trap] -> the situation of two groups without sufficient information on each other launching an attack from one side or the other preemptively to prevent the other side from attacking. 
I think this more or less summarizes the relationship between Tory types and United States anarchists. because of the existence of anarchism Tories can never know if their cities will spontaneously get attacked, and they start blaming racial minorities for the existence of all crimes because they have no idea how else to achieve their goal of getting rid of all crimes.

</li><li class="field_gramsci" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Mode of production expands to fill population growth / When populations grow it is predictable that the form of social organization and structure (microhierarchies, class territories, business territories) will expand into something that is capable of containing the excess population -> this is one of those propositions that in another form would be uncontroversial but which somebody managed to oversimplify and put in a form that really bothered me. no, you don't actually know if mode of production is going to change to fit the population at all. all the anarchists that try to tell you the proletariat is a malicious fabrication to make people think they are obligated to work in factories to deserve life and get to live in a particular country at the permission of the people with all the land and money while "really" the need to create a new mode of production isn't real for some reason are almost closer to correct. there are reasons that's also wrong, but yeah, no, it's fully possible for a population to just start massacring excess population rather than moving to a new mode of production to fit them in. there were times in Europe (was it Henry VIII?) when all the extra homeless peasants were just killed; you need to count your blessings. the fastest correction to both I can give without writing a long essay: when a population gets too big it splits into two populations and the new population has to be willing to 'chain' itself into the most appropriate mode of production to avoid a lot of unnecessary deaths. but the process is many times less painful if the population creates a Marxist republic around the transition and collectively takes control of its own chains. this gets controversial when [[E:Deng Xiaoping Thought|China and Vietnam]] are effectively having to consciously choose to create benign colonies and serve First-World countries to keep other countries from depriving them of a representative government or using capital to slurp up their land or forcing their people out of the country to become First-World immigration slaves in a faint, less-bad echo of why the Transatlantic slave trade happened. that aside, anarchism is bankrupt in that it can never actually justify why any group of people is actually obligated to tolerate any other group of people's existence or let them live in any particular area. if people have Free Will as most charcoal and blue anarchisms want to believe and only pretend they don't believe, they have infinite freedom to be as evil as possible, and trying to tell them what human rights to believe doesn't recognize the reality of their own Free Will and Lived Experience. it's only because I don't believe in Free Will that I can turn around and say that [[E:Leon Trotsky|my "favorite" enemies of Marxism]] actually might not be that bad.

</li><li class="field_gramsci" data-tradition="ES, W" value="618" data-dimension="S">more female drone pilots -> the motif of "reforming" even the worst parts of empire through classic [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|blue-anarchist]] principles

</li><li class="field_trotsky" data-tradition="MX onto IV" value="618" data-dimension="S">Trotskyist China (thought experiment) / China as Trotskyism in one country -> the concept of the country of China as it exists in an alternate hypothetical timeline where it did not build [[E:Maoism (1940s)|early Maoism]] and instead became Trotskyism-in-one-country.
</li><li class="field_trotsky" data-tradition="MX onto IV" value="618" data-dimension="M3">If China had emerged from a Trotskyist revolution and created Trotskyism in one country, would Trotskyists want an independent Tibet? -> I genuinely don't know the answer to this. on one hand, Trotskyists are infamous for breaking countries apart and wanting things to be independent. on the other hand, they seem broadly aligned with the old Leninist idea of dissolving all nationalities to basically create one big one. so how can you conceptualize national independence through Trotskyism, or alternatively, forming a union republic type thing next to a larger country that the people of the smaller republic believe to be abusing them? does the concept of populational autonomy even exist in Trotskyism? if so, how? 
China as Trotskyism in one country + conflict between China and Tibet = this.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Marxism is colonial / Marxism is steeped through with The Colonizer Attitude / Marxism is too full of structural racism to be useful
</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="A onto ML" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Working is colonialism / Proletarians are a scourge on the earth because in having the privilege to go to work every day at a relatively stable workplace and do unskilled labor they become part of and reinforce the system of corporations competing over the earth's resources, exploiting countries less developed than them, using their dominance over the ability to structure society to abuse and disenfranchise tribal populations and other ethnic minorities, and overall making it illegal or impossible to not serve owners' aims of infinite growth -> this is harder to counter than you'd think. if an anarchist actually believes something like this and you try to bring up concepts like that growth actually occurs because people are born and industrial structures fit people into countries while managing the threat of crime (which is to say, miniature wars), they'll just turn around and be like, {{i|I don't care about human beings if they're in China, or if they're Irish and slowly being absorbed into a United States population that hates immigrants. if people have bad and prejudiced attitudes they simply have to stop, and ignorance of what people are doing to the planet or other countries is no excuse. if people don't willingly transition to tribal society, let them all die.}} was that too mean? did I miss something that would cause anarchists not to say that? in any event what I do know is there's no arguing with anarchists. whenever you try to argue with them they pull {{censor|shit}} like trying to say you can't {{em|really know}} the material world exists and you can't really know historical events mean anything. which leaves me baffled because it's like, all I have to prove to me that colonial abuses happened are history books, so you're taking away your entire argument that people still need to be liberated if you argue against reasoning off history. every anecdote I hear from people about their lives is just more history; I never actually {{em|have}} Lived Experiences to work with. 
I have to be honest, sometimes North-American Maoism feels like it's slowly turning into this. supposed Third-World Marxisms get to really beating up on people just for being part of the population of White people and not moving to Third World countries, whether those people are actually part of the Careerist layer {{em|which largely becomes corrupt by fighting itself}}, or not. or, you know, beating up on China because it may or may not be becoming a First-World country and that "basically" makes people White, and when people are White they are part of the complex of bad and mean attitudes that are the only things binding people into empires. why are anarchists so weirdly racist against Third World countries? it's like the typical anarchist thinks racial minorities of First World countries and all tribal populations are important but they really hate Third World majorities especially, seemingly more than they get semi-reasonably angry at White people or First World majorities. there is this weird dual anger at being in the First World and silent acceptance that tribes and minorities have to turn into a new global empire and beat up the Third World in place of the empire they fight against currently. 
Marxism is colonial + socioempire = Working is colonialism

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">Asocialism / general-sense Socialism but for people who do not believe in Community processes as agents of change -> the concept of an ideology of transition — either Menshevik-style or Bolshevik-style — which absolutely does not ground itself in "community" or "communality", although it does not prohibit such things, and seeks to unite people based on the values of Materialism, physics, and math. 
the Community delusion + Socialism = Asocialism.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The {{TTS|tts=United States|US}} already has dictators / The {{TTS|tts=United States|US}} has had dictators since 1930 [https://www.studentsofhistory.com/ideologies-flip-Democratic-Republican-parties] / If a dictator is defined as a situation where a population has a limited number of statesmen or theorists and people do not have the ability to arbitrarily align with one of them over the other, the United States does not meet its own criteria for not having dictators, and has not met those criteria for at least 50 years; this problem did not start recently whatsoever -> I think way too much about how the only grounds on which the United States can claim not to be a "dictatorship" or "one-party state" is that you can vote for Trump. literally, the choice to be able to be a reactionary or not is the only actual choice people get to make. they don't really get to choose who will be president. they have a president assigned to them by a curated body of experts; solely in terms of class it's no different than already having a Marxist party-nation. 
people need to be aware that like, in China, you can side with the CPC if you're progressive but you also have the choice to side with one of the eight or so bizarrely identical capitalist parties. having that choice doesn't even meaningfully distinguish the United States from other countries. 
Progressives must vote for the Democrats + People have little actual control on who the Democratic Party nominates = Progressives have no choice but to vote for Biden 
Stalin was a dictator / Mao was a dictator + Progressives have no choice but to vote for Biden = The US already has dictators.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Wars are leaping States colliding / Wars are the collision of two State apparatuses unable to regulate each other -> this is what runs through my mind when I think about the United States Civil War. if true, it gives pause on whether any particular country can actually regulate any other external country over human rights, or whether that can only be a pretext for violence. 
field: existential materialism

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Academic specialization manufactures ignorance / Academic specialization, based on its own existence, manufactures external groups of "ignorant people" through people's gaps in imagining that anyone other than themselves with the experiences of training and social circles they have had could exist; this claim is applicable mostly to highly specialized frameworks like Lacanianism and poststructuralism more than knowledge regularly applied in industry like a degree about making computer chips or vaccines; due to at least limited applicability in law practice, critical race theory for example is excepted (people's prejudices; meta-Marxist shovel dream analysis, also some blue anarchism probably) -> one thing that gets me about all the [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition|blue and strawberry anarchisms]] going around is that they show up with these highly arcane frameworks that nobody would understand at first and then they try to act like not only is it obvious for everyone to know this but it's rude and mean to not know something that literally only a few specialized people know and you have to dig through a bunch of texts and study for years to understand, that like, Crenshaw trying to draft up a school curriculum won't even fix this gap of so-called "ignorance" between regular people and all these experts. it feels like they're getting degrees and trying to justify it by bullying other people into thinking that having their degree is the default instead of an unusual specialization. you know what's a social construct believed to exist by small arbitrary groups of people? ignorance! 
like... certainly some people do not have basic knowledge of the material world, such as when you find somebody that tries to tell you viruses don't exist or vaccines contain microchips. but somebody not knowing some of these highly specific and in reality totally incoherent academic anarchisms is on a different level from that.

</li><li class="field_ML" data-tradition="MX onto A, MX onto ES" value="618" data-dimension="S">using deconstruction to argue Communism / using Idealist methods of tearing apart social constructs to argue Communism -> so, cards on the table, I don't fully know what deconstruction is. I only have a vague constellation in my head of mountains of weird things poststructuralists, schizoanalysts, Jungians, self-labeled postcolonial theorists, postcolonial anarchists, and "generic" anarchists have said, often tearing apart each other for being too racist in being anti-racist but racist in anti-racism, and on and on. not to be mean to them today, the overall picture I get is that there are several methods for trying to show that everything people take to be assumptions on concrete parts of a situation that exist are actually wholly arbitrary or unnecessary. at one end of this cluster of methods is people picking apart assumptions baked into language. somewhat at the far end of this overall {{em|cluster}} of {{em|different}} methods are the people that argue that entire historical events or things that happened yesterday are inadmissible as facts about the material world. that latter end seems crazy to me because it seems like a way to shut down all arguments by taking away every way people attempt to explain and clarify anything or express themselves and reducing people to brains in vats that have no right to be physical and exist. the material world and what has already happened are the only things we can even know that {{em|aren't}} our own speculations or inventions. I am therefore I am. 
examples of arguments (not the best, but that doesn't matter): A) we can't use history to predict the future, therefore we can't know the United States won't transition to Bolshevism B) "Communist dictator" is a social construct created by empire which does not reflect the reality of living in workers' states C) there is no reason the English language needs to include the word "totalitarian", and it was created by the arbitrary conditions of alliances and rivalries through and at the end of World War II D) the concept that society "ideally" needs to transition into a fine mist of tiny businesses while big businesses are impossible is made up 
Bolshevik identity politics + ?? = this.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Bolshevik revolution follows population density / The probability of experiencing a transition to Bolshevism has to do with a country's population density (experiencing transition to Stalin's Marxism; meta-Marxism) -> I have had this thought that while {{em|a Marxism that abolishes capitalism}} happening in the United States is still possible, the United States may be past the stage of historical development where a {{em|Bolshevik}} revolution can possibly happen. this is because Bolshevism appears to happen based on having a surplus population which objectively has the potential to be developed further, for instance out of peasants and into industries or what would be capitalism. when the population keeps developing past the window for forming Bolshevism without forming Bolshevism, it turns into a different kind of population with new characteristics, where the country as a whole is crammed with people that have already gotten into industries and become experts and maybe accumulated a modest pile of wealth and the remaining people fundamentally aren't inherently useful. in the "pre-Bolshevik" countries you can justify Menshevism easily because welfare programs support the overall process of people leaving peasant life and the country completing its development. but in the "non-Bolshevik" countries it's hard to even sell people on Menshevism because everyone in the country has every industry they need and materially it's so much easier for people to select what people get to stay in the country or have to leave based on what people they especially like and are friends with and what people they think are mean and nasty rather than making a principled decision to actually exert effort to create more carrying capacity that actually allows more people to stay rather than leaving. it becomes really easy to make people into nazis on the grounds of 'nice people, mean people' and convincing them that nice people are actually mean. but with that said, there is still a really horrible class society in play that will make everyone tired of it: the class society of every individual just kind of cultivating their individual career skill and brand-identity to fit into each unoccupied slot with it impossible to really receive help from anyone else, transient to their own fragile body, unable to make it easier to live in towns by building up industrial structures that can pay taxes, unable to leave their kids a house to live in. this eventually starts cracking at the edges as it builds up unrealistic standards for every individual that get higher every decade and every generation, conveniently reinforced for the short term by Filaments of people who all happen to fit into things as a connected ring of people and pay each other. ultimately you get a particular kind of symptom: people hating that they are part of the exclusive finitely-slotted countable culture they had to fight their way into and making up confused conspiracy theories that "cultural attitudes" have been bad or "hegemony" did this (because by the 'musical chairs' definition it kinda did) or "we decide to be in modernity" or complaining about "what happened to community". people really start thinking that anarchism explains something when it doesn't. when really what they've been ignoring is that Existentialism screwed things up — the practice of People Live Their Lives And Try To Slot Into Society And Find Community And Just Exist, because when duplexed, everyone doing this causes problems for everyone else. one of a few possible things has to happen. one thing that could happen is all the contradictory individuals closing the gaps between them and becoming one thing, some kind of structure similar to Bolshevism but which consists of a lot of teeny tiny microscopic businesses instead of big ones with a lot of workers in factories and in soviets. if you create this mono-structure, it can conceptually accommodate adding a few more people to it based on the forms of structure that already incorporate people into it; however new openings were calculated before can go around again. the mono-structure can't be based on "wealth" or "distributing gains", it has to be based on closing up the gaps between competing chunks, and nothing else. or else, as particular fringe groups of Marxists put it, everyone is just 'leeching off the world and benefiting from settler status'. not my favorite way of putting it, but hey, it's true when people deliberately resist creating Bolshevism, and whether that's the case it can be fixed by uniting people into a mono-structure where the internal elements and connections of the structure become important in supporting each other rather than running to the ends of the earth to find 'unclaimed' slots to fulfil their needs.

in daily life, Tories are obsessed with making money. they will support anything that results in them being able to study business or become a high-valued expert, work hard every day, and bring home money to feed their household. if you try to take down fossil fuels, it's, but we're making money! if you try to get them to support public transit they'll sometimes try to appeal to the necessity of company owners making money and there being a survival threat on their whole family if they don't do it right. (no joke. actual remark from somebody I knew.) so, the thinking goes, if you want Tories to change themselves, you should pay them to do it as their career every day. open up jobs that pay people to get degrees in the history of racism and read about racism every day, and make them actually live every day doing that job, making sure the organization never goes bankrupt. this could result in people being forced to change their worldview to protect what {{em|now}} makes them money, even if they retain a lot of other Tory beliefs and their worldview is bizarrely contradictory. 
a couple further questions come up with this. first, how would you allocate money for this? it has to be done independently of government so it can't be dismantled by elections. you have to make sure all the people with money join together on this instead of donating to electoral candidates, and don't pull their money out. you have to make sure there aren't investors that can pull out. you have to keep money coming in, although if the core cluster of finance capitalists is owners in other 'productive' industries that wouldn't be a problem. if any of the productive industries stop growing because they stabilize and all their money is going to operating costs, you have less money for making people learn anti-racism. you have a particular time limit based on remaining possibility for industrial growth to just concede that the government isn't a bad place to put stuff that can only be reconnected and allocated, and transition to Bolshevism.

I have specific reasons for doing that. I think that large-scale processes are inherently closer to being mechanical while small-scale processes are inherently less mechanical. I think there is a transition between the workings of the two scales similar to the transition between quantum physics and classical physics; to me, mechanical materialism is an approximation of the workings of the real world that breaks down at particular scales and moments where other processes take hold. of course since humans are macroscopic it's easier to trivially observe small-scale things behaving like large-scale things or large-scale things behaving like small-scale things, and as such I will often take a situation and crudely reduce it in the other direction into a macrocosm or microcosm just to solidly illustrate that the transition exists. I do this because I feel like people are firmly drilled into mechanical materialism and you almost have to start there and show them the moment the actual transition to dialectical processes happens to actually get them to understand it. of course, I think one of the major ways this transition happens is relativity. and when you look into relativity and build relativistic determinism, you start to see that modeling the "retermination" of even simple processes is weirdly complicated, or at least, very unfamiliar to everyone used to mechanical materialism / vulgar determinism. a [[Philosophical Research:MDem/5.1r/1101 differentiate|wave machine]] can compute it just fine, it's just single-variable functions that have trouble.

with all that in mind, this is the motif of there being a period of "further transitions" which occur {{em|before}} getting to Bolshevism in order to get there, either one or multiple. this isn't an arbitrary category of things you can insert anything into. this is the notion of actual transitions between qualitatively different historical periods which occur in between capitalism and Bolshevism. this is the idea of capitalism, period A, period B, period C, Bolshevism. example 1 (incorrect United States): multicapitalism, mono-capitalism, Bolshevism. example 2 (China): warring states period, Marxist party-nation, mono-capitalism, Bolshevism. example 3 (USSR): global empire, Marxist party-nations, Bolshevism.

this is, of course, one of those motifs with a bright side and a dark side. you could read it as Tories trying to claim that it's inevitable not everyone can have human rights or get to exist. but you could also read it as Communists saying it's possible to give everyone rights if we think of the world as a finite amount of people in finite arrangements, and plan for the finite people of the world to be put into the right regions and structures so everyone gets rights.

the problem is that this is a terrible assumption. if left alone, human beings create [[E:colonialism (material object)|global empire]] and complain that you're being so mean to the Afrikaners or the Israelis when you try to break it up. freedom itself is potentially dangerous and allows people to do whatever horrible things they want as potentially millions and millions of people linked together while saying "but you can't stop me, I'm free". but what people miss is that the absence of freedom doesn't necessarily equal "monarchy" or "slavery", it's just its own thing called "no freedom". and it happens quite easily as soon as two groups of people are free at the same time, threatening each other with small-scale violence if they don't behave exactly to each other's arbitrary wants. of course, the flip side of that is that in some ways all groups of people or "communities" are potentially biased and skewed about whether separate groups of people in conflict with them are truly harming them or not, and in some ways a vast number of people can never know what's "ethical" in the first place. sometimes the problem is [[E:Ethics is unethical|that we rely on the concept of ethics]] at all. of course, sometimes it's still [[E:Palestine is not complicated|not complicated]] to say that free-floating groups of people doing whatever they want is harmful regardless of what each group of people thinks is ethical.

I don't think this is currently possible. my objection to it, of course, is not that the idea of all countable cultures coexisting, moving around and across everywhere freely, and peacefully reproducing would be a bad thing. it wouldn't. my objection is that currently we can't get trivially rid of ideologies. physical ideology-objects are like this hard barrier between human populations coming together, this boundary where populations have wars and kill each other or animals would eat each other. if we could overcome the plurality of ideologies to somehow cover the world in Bolshevism or something, it might then be possible to begin this process of making countable socially-linked culture-groups of people — furries, K-Pop fans, Christians, Buddhists, lesbian romance novel writers, Germans, Canadians, fiery atheists, neo-pagans, Dungeons & Dragons fanatics — non-ideological at that period in history. but as long as mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism are separate, as long as we have divisions like that, this kind of anarchism will be physically impossible. 
I know "peacefully reproduce" is a weird phrase. it means: as any two biological individuals exist in nature and reproduce literally, social phenomena larger than an individual mixing or joining together to make new iterations or entities. a household itself and not the people in it joining to another household to produce new households. two universities producing experts that come together to create new discoveries somewhere else or a new university. it's the notion of non-biological things reproducing, Bauplan elements that make up Cultures reproducing. god, to think some people are still upset about interracial marriage, when we could be talking about much bigger things on this level.

I think people come up with this idea because they get too lost in positivism and buried in the concept of Lived Experience. they get it in their head that only the living-experiencing mind of a specific individual with a specific life and history can be the raw material for constructing an understanding of a population, that individuals can understand populations and have empathy but groups of people can't, and then they go searching for the single best individual to do the task of collecting information on issues and representing people, which has to be a demographic minority because otherwise it's impossible for that positivistic individual to properly contain the correct individual Lived Experience. this is... a very [[E:Careerist layer|Careerist]] phenomenon. it's very rooted in the notion of individuals always having to build up artisanal education and expertise for anything to ever be done and especially for anything with uncertainty over whether it will be completed to be done. and then you generate Liberal-republicanism, this concept that everybody gets to vote but voting is not actually a choice in that you're only allowed to vote for a Black lesbian or the thing isn't functioning correctly. (not to say this hypothetical election outcome is where the problem is. the point is about how no matter how good the outcome is it's messed up for voting to never really be a choice and actually be an exercise in punishing everyone for not behaving correctly.) Liberal-republicanism is really really weird in that it often comes across as deterministic. there's a specific outcome people have predetermined they want everyone else to do, but then they just leave them to do it? it's weirdly obsessed with removing everyone's actual individual agency and overwriting that with a particular plan. everything people told you about Liberalism being free and Marxism being less free is just a lie. but the reason isn't what you'd expect: Liberal-republican voters were never free. 
now, this issue of "positivist Careerism" is also an issue for Marxism, in a slightly different way. Marxism is more honest in that it tells people everything is about the correct answers. but it still gets stuck in these nasty traps of only having a few people who are qualified to run things in a party ("dictators"! oh no!) because only those particular people have all the required individual knowledge and experience. as time goes on and more people in a Third-World country get educated this gets better, there's more like thousands and thousands of experts to choose from instead of just one or ten, and the bad ones can be tossed out. but there's still a little bit of a bottleneck in that only this limited minority of people with experience becomes a caste of people who is qualified to be nominated or elected. this layer and this problem also exists in Liberal-republicanism, it's nearly the same class of people, the notion of just anybody being able to be elected is just a lie, but Marxism is more honest about all of it while Liberalism totally obscures it. Liberalism commands you to deterministically produce the outcome of electing a Black woman, Marxism begrudgingly admits that the country must temporarily be ruled by the minority of "Stalin" or "Trotsky" in the interest of getting the right answers.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The biggest problem with capitalism is that it allows people to be stupid -> when you live in a Liberal-republican country, everybody will constantly beat you down to accept capitalism, worker or not, and beat you down to only be allowed into "progressivism" if you accept capitalists. to the finest levels, capitalism chokes out any real threat of turning all the workers against it using Menshevism. so, for a moment, let's explain things to them a different way. let's pretend for a second that capitalism isn't harmful. if this were true, the biggest problem that transforms capitalism into "fascism" is this. Liberal-republicanism requires a layer of smart experts to properly have suitable candidates to be elected. but there is no incentive for people to actually be smart. if people manage to be good at keeping a business running as a structure or chunk of assets while not caring about any of the people in it, they don't have to learn anything else, andpeopel, always having money, they can still try as many times as they want to get elected — if they resonate with people's anger enough maybe they will. this simple process of capitalists existing and getting to try and try and try again generates Toryism — the group of people who would tear apart Liberal-republicanism and settle for any system without griping, monarchy and feudal order or some new capitalism-feudalism or anything else, as long as that system preserves their Freedom in their own day-to-day lives as individuals or small groups in the way that they conceive of it. Tories have existed from the second right before Liberal-republicanism was created; the Tories that tried to prevent a British parliament from existing at all are only so different from today's Tories. the major struggle of Liberal-republicanism is like this: it's always been an active struggle between a population-society of Tories realizing a Tory Bauplan and a population-society of Liberal-repbulicans realizing a Liberal-republican Bauplan, a struggle between two nations and cultures to out-exist and spread over the top of the other in order to wholly realize a new republic and a new historical period. Liberal-republicanism is a transition fighting slowly across a country over a century that becomes awkwardly stuck in the middle. 
so, logically, if you want to fix Liberal-republicanism inside Liberal-republicanism, one way is to require everybody to be smart. make everyone actually take some kind of science test to become representatives, and put basic questions about gender identity and climate change and development stages of a fetus on there and everything. that's going to suck for people that start in poor neighborhoods. but everybody always says their number one goal is defeating fascism, not defeating racism, so is that really a problem??? {{i|(sarcasm.)}} this would be like a citizenship test, set out at the national level, not like a bar exam set up by specific universities or a specific regional guild. if you did this... I think Tories would get really mad and try to deregulate everything and remove it from all government control (like they do today) but overall it would be much easier to keep them from taking over government at least. I think there would be major movements to make society more culturocratic and make it so blocks of Tories and Tory control over jobs are literally impenetrable. I think you'd see major segregation racially and ideologically to where Florida may as well change its name to Toryistan. but eventually you might get blocs of capitalists in the Gramscian states declaring bills of human rights that form some kind of regional constitutions and joining up into localized capital-fiefs that at least try really hard to have the mandate of heaven on their cluster of earls. they'd shatter the existing state lines and create new states. and then maybe in about 2200 industries would finally start republicanizing specifically through being too centralized and consolidated to grow or change and replacing owners with groups of bureaucrats. it wouldn't be fun but it could maybe work, at an absolute glacial pace.

this idea will look absolutely insane if you live in a Third World country — for instance I'd guess it would look crazy in India, and thus might count as revisionism {{em|if you lived over there}}. but people outside the United States need to understand that the conditions you need these kinds of ideas in are really unique and strange, and so you need to counter those with almost equally strange ideas. in the United States, people are weirdly [[E:The French Revolution is a distraction|obsessed with the French Revolution]] and the idea that a bunch of people suffering joined together as [[E:tent of freedom poles|tent of freedom poles]] to create Human Rights — that material suffering almost isn't actually material and a bunch of people [[E:Idealism|genuinely stop physically starving]] thanks to a [[E:IBE|piece of paper]] — while at the same time a staggering amount of people want to believe that "no country requires a revolution", such that despite being the birth of Liberalism the French Revolution can be reduced down to a simple act of a bunch of smart people signing a piece of paper. let's take a second to call this what it is: this is the belief that the United States and the world have been made great by European colonizers with a lot of money creating an empire with smarts and money and papers and merely allowing every lesser man to live in it. we don't want to believe that the bedrock of Liberal republics [[E:non-peacer|is Toryism]] with a little moderating constitution on top of it, or that even the founders of the United States by describing "law and order" and "democracy" truly only made Toryism huger and enforcing order by brutalizing criminals and foreigners bigger. with that said. normal people really really don't understand the concept of Toryism existing as a material object the size of the United States. they don't get the concept that national governments and local social structures exist to corral populations into peaceful shapes to prevent wars. Lenin would understand it, because it allowed creating the Soviet Union and getting the Russian Empire region out of war. but most people in the United States and apparently in Australia really don't get this whole concept that war and violence stop when people are arranged good. and in the midst of that, they get actively distracted by the concepts of "wealth" and "inequality", mistaking the most superficial understandings of these concepts for an understanding of class in the historical sense. I feel like at a certain point you just have to pull out the rug and take """class""" away from them. you have to just shout at them, Marxism isn't about class!!! it sounds like a foreign language to an English speaker in India, but it's because you can't get away from the false definition of wealth equalling class. you have to find a different entrance into language, a backdoor, to explain historical materialism to people. you have to get them to discard their totally wrong understandings and start leading them to the truth. and what truth is that? that wealth, "greed", "elites", and even "human rights" have almost nothing to do with "creating democracy" or "stopping fascism". people are arranged into various chunks. the chunks rearrange into different chunks of chunks to create peace and structure the world. there is currently no order to the process of arranging chunks. chunks inevitably grow over each other and fight each other brutally to be the only true chunk or individual that belongs somewhere doing something. people falsely believe that [[E:natural crime|morality exists in nature]] and there are inherently evil ways for chunks to stochastically attempt to arrange themselves that can be stopped or punished. but it's all false. there is no way for the internal decision-making processes of individual individuals and individual chunks to regulate the brutal process of chunks fighting over open slots to be the only true thing or the one with the privilege of ordering the chunks. the {{caps|only}} way to stop that is declare that chunks don't have the right to be independent and start smashing the borders between chunks. it doesn't truly matter that chunks have owners. when you crush the borders between chunks and you really aim to do it permanently you also end up removing the owners of the chunks. the big hang-up is this. if Gramscianism or anarchism were competent as emerging civilizations, they could just join people together, overcome all the owners, and take control of the chunks making them do what they're supposed to. the existence of owners wouldn't be an issue that anybody has to whine about or make videos about, the owners would already be at Gramscians' mercy. so why do Western-Marxists spend so much time whining about "culture" and "elites dividing you"? ([[E:Richard Wolff is the bourgeoisie|ironically.]]) basically because when everyone is obsessed with the totally nebulous concept of "freedom" nobody has the courage to say, "hmm, I don't think businesses should be independent" and shove a bunch of businesses together into a civilizational body they're not allowed to leave. that's Bolshevism. that's the true way capitalism ends and Bolshevism is created. Bolshevism is the end of divisions between conflicting chunks of people. you don't actually have to talk about workers or owners just to win people over to Bolshevism. the only issue is now you have to deal with the messy terrain of what groups of people should associate into what people-groups in order to form nations, ethnic groups with governments, union republics, or similar political entities capable of acting as workers' states or building blocks of workers' states. that requires specific knowledge of history and current news and is not something you can solve solely with a little math. there. I didn't even talk about Communist parties or people of a particular people-group meeting up as groups of representatives to properly form a barebones [[E:democracy as republicanism|democracy]]. I made it maximally palatable to all the university experts and freelancers and co-op starters and and independent contractor types. so there's no excuse now. it doesn't matter if you're the bourgeoisie. if you don't have the power to end capitalism and create Bolshevism then your theory sucks.

one of the only good things about Toryism is that it nominally claims to arrange people into particular corrals of people strictly not allowed to step over each other in order to promote peace and moral behavior. from there, there are a million bad things about it. but schizoanalysis seems not to understand the role of feudal orders and Toryism in nominally trying to prevent wars, and seems to stupidly attack literally any mechanism which could prevent people from flat-out descending into World War I. this is not a road to fixing the world. you need to commit to some kind of physical arrangement of people designed to prevent wars, or in the end you basically support war and maybe genocide.

</li><li class="field_mdem" data-tradition="MX onto DG" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Excluding Trotsky is an offense to schizoanalysis -> there are many reasons you could argue "Excluding Trotsky is bigotry" is false. I have some very, very specific reasons for arguing it's true. one of them is to argue this. schizoanalysis is dreadfully mainstream by now whether people know they believe it or not; "Community", "tolerance" and "freedom" are each really big in this decade, and so you stand a better chance of getting people to believe something if you filter it through schizoanalysis. with this said, it can be argued that schizoanalysts, and the broader group of [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialists]] and anarchists in general, are intolerant of Trotskyism as a countable culture while they use it as a pawn to divide people, violating their own core values of being The Nice People who make everyone [[E:tent of freedom poles|Tent of Freedom Poles]] as The Only Possible Way to Join Groups of Human Beings. but here's the thing. if they were to tolerate Trotskyism as a countable culture, they'd have to tolerate the realization of Trotskyism and thus the literal act of creating a hypothetical Trotskyist workers' state which they would allow to become an ally of their country regardless of if the two populations have different "economic systems". nobody does that. nobody practices true tolerance across countries in this way. the Cold War never ended, it only really got worse. the overall landscape of anticommunism shifts the moment you get schizoanalysts to turn around and go, oh wait, by turning against our own allies in the Cold War that we bashed Stalin's government because we supported, we made a big mistake, we should have at least supported our own friends and [[E:If Trotsky corrected his errors he'd become a mainstream Marxist-Leninist|held them to real standards]], so we could have actually won against center-Liberalism and not inevitably succumbed to neoliberalism and Tories. 
said another way: {{em|if}} tolerance is the key to winning and stopping Toryism, schizoanalysts tolerating Trotskyists and flat-out tolerating Leninism itself can only be good, regardless of how effective Trotskyists actually are currently. I think the basic problem here is that tolerance itself {{em|doesn't}} actually solve anything. hate to be that guy being super negative in the corner, but yeah. schizoanalysis is bogus. {{em|if}} it wasn't bogus, {{em|then}} it would benefit from supporting Leninism and never deserting Trotskyists. keep telling schizoanalysts things like this and see how long it takes them to break and realize that Community isn't made of Community.

I think there's something to unpack here about the divide between a Liberal-republican society and a pure Tory society. in theory, there may exist people who would still hate the Illuminati today, because they're Tories and will always feel like Liberal-republicanism itself is an imposition on them — laws are permissible but society itself is to be composed of people creating or claiming slots, pushing people the {{censor|hell}} out when they're not behaving right and Humaning right and are in the wrong slot, and claiming that everyone who didn't get a slot is just bad at being human.

Toryism is defined here as the act of moralizing spatial slot hierarchies and in various formal and informal ways giving territory owners the power to regulate society by punishing anybody who does not obey the territory owner's will or grouped territory-owner-Filament's will. I don't know right now if that is a good description of hegemony politics or a bad description of Toryism. 
one thing I'm more sure on: Toryism and Liberal-republicanism are two materially separate ideologies which can exist on top of each other. Toryism can be created without Liberal-republicanism. Liberal-republicanism is created over the top of Toryism attempting and failing to regulate it. 
more tentatively: Liberal-republicanism fails partly because it seeks to construct nation membership on a colonial basis, actively conquering people into a country "because they are all [[E:tent of freedom poles|Equal]] [[E:The Subject|human individuals]]" and assigning them ethnicity, culture, language, religion, and sometimes things like gender. nations have always been arbitrary cultural groupings, and cultures have never been multicultural just by virtue of being cultures, cultures only really exist in the first place to separate themselves from other cultures, thanks to the fact cultures are made of materially contradictory groups of living Animals. this does make the process of forming any republic confusing and fraught. but not impossible. logically if you start at [[:Category:Bauplan ontologies|teeny tiny units]] and put them together like bricks, and make sure they all want to go together, you can stack up to various sizes of stable units again.

and that's why I have a different angle on this stuff. I think the simple processes of human life are really breaking people in half before they can be strong enough to stand together and slowly organize into a new republic and even go to work. humans, by default, are stuck in and beaten down into that crumbling, dying "petty-bourgeois" position, and thanks to the Third World existing, a much greater portion of the world's population is stuck that way than Marxists want to admit. the proletariat is [[E:production privilege|quite a privileged position]] historically that can be taken away by the ruling class above it at any moment, and when the owners inevitably take everything and leave if the workers aren't strong enough together to conquer the country and stop them, you end up with one more North Korea. that's the human condition. at this point, "permanent revolution" in any particular country now has a build-up period before it where people just have to be willing to endure horrendous conditions deliberately, willingly, with whatever survival strategies they have to win and get to have human rights. I don't think the whole notion of "Communism starts with the hope of being able to include everybody, and then arrives with the material methods" is quite right any more. I think in some senses we kind of just have to jump to the material methods and tell people it's gonna be really bad and then see how much hope is possible, or else horrifying majorities of people simply die before they can ever become proletarians and resist.

I think you have to be careful with saying "concrete analysis of concrete conditions". it's correct if you mean that the internal parts of real events should be used to correct theory and should override abstract principles. but in some cases you are absolutely going to get revisionists claiming particular things {{em|are}} the concrete conditions when they aren't, and then reasoning off incorrect ideas of what is real or practical. I think it can be a lot more clear to invoke the concept of "physics" and say that Marxism is studying the physical processes of social connection which will break and crush anyone's idea of what is "concrete" if it's wrong. the top problem in the United States is flat-out people trying to redefine what's physical and real, and make Lived Experiences physical and words and prejudices physical and votes physical and make physical populations fake.

</li><li class="field_mdem" data-tradition="MX" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Many errors stem from vague Marxism / A lot of errors result from vague Marxism / A lot of errors occur because Marxists hand out theory which is inappropriately vague -> the hypothesis that immediately goes through my mind reading this pamphlet about "errors". every time the pamphlet describes Marxist methods for finding correct positions I can immediately imagine how even as {{em|I}} can understand it somebody would read the same sentence and get at least one kind of error out of it. I think this exposes a big problem in how dialectical materialism is communicated. we've made it way too easy to misunderstand. 
I think we need to start recategorizing kinds of errors in terms of actual material objects that make up ideologies or movements. "sectarianism" for instance could stay as it is because it already describes the [[E:shovel (meta-Marxism)|shovel]]: a party making ideology based on being a tiny sect and not understanding how it will scale up. other things like trying to categorize racism as ultraleft just plain don't make any sense. racism is the shovel dream of things like a graph only containing White people. the concept of left or right errors doesn't really adequately describe that. 
that said: there are definitely times when this statement isn't True. I already know there were times when somebody could have leveled this at Lenin only for Lenin to explain that nothing he was saying was vague and literally the revisionist just didn't understand it. so this is more of a "some occurrence" or "most of the time" statement than one that's flatly True.

I think I am saying that the black hole containing universe model is not sound against relativity. it's just not how special relativity goes. and, sure, it's probably the case that small-scale relativity is going on inside a black hole, but general relativity is supposed to calculate special relativity, not do something different. you haven't explained how why whenever physical objects exist they communicate with other physical objects nearest to them eventually given enough time, but the purported objects inside the black hole don't do that. you can't really invoke "well they're small" when gravity itself is really really small and the gravity process collides with everything given large enough distances. 
whenever I think about this black hole model now I cannot stop thinking about Horton Hears a Who. it's just Horton Hears a Who with universes. "Horton hears a hole" could be a name for the motif page about black hole universes. or a generalized fictitious notion of fractal universes.

this is one of the big reasons you want North Korea to have a Workers' Party of Korea. if North Korea wasn't a workers' state and it was just a small splinter country that believed in capitalism, it'd probably be pretty damn racist. it'd just be all about how much people hated the Japanese, and possibly why being an ill-developed country is inherently good. having a Workers' Party of Korea to nudge the country toward defining what progress is and working toward progress helps moderate that kind of effect. like, I'm gonna blow your mind. think about how in Undertale the monsters are killing human children to escape and there is this undertone if not quite outright plot point of them wanting revenge.

Community and positive feedback loops fit together like a hand in a glove, while negative feedback loops are often anathema to Community and shrugged off as "authoritarian". socioempire contains like, individual empire, "subjectivoempire", I wish I could think of a good word for it... bioempire.

with China, it's pretty obvious why this is: China was still a feudal order at the time of Maoism, so saying that Maoism defeated something other than capitalism totally checks out. likewise, North Korea didn't defeat capitalism, it defeated slavery. I'm not sure exactly what Vietnam defeated. looks like... [https://alphahistory.com/vietnamwar/august-revolution/ a client state with a puppet government]? huh. and in a weird turn of events Imperial Japan was expelled from Vietnam just because World War II was going on and First World countries hated each other. that reveals a lot about how the First World conceptualizes history — Communism is not okay because the normal course of Vietnamese history is the United States dropping a nuclear bomb on Japan and burning civilians to cinders. this makes the whole uproar about 9/11 make so much less sense when we basically saved Vietnam with a gigantic act of terrorism. 
so, Deng Xiaoping Thought conceptualizes proletarian revolution differently from mainstream Marxism-Leninism, but not necessarily in a sense that's wrong. it embraces Marxism-Leninism on the point that societies have to become conscious of their current structure and take control of it to defeat it — which happened. then it claims that proletarian revolution, in the broadest sense of society churning over into a truly proletarian economic structure that spits out a proletarian superstructure, is way in the future and Marxism hasn't actually been about the proletariat... "yet". this becomes a little bit of an absurdity in the context of the United States, where the country can develop for 200 years and become highly developed and one of the most privileged countries on earth and yet end up with no proletariat in a lot of places, the proletariat having been this transient phenomenon while hiring and firing and changing jobs is one of the most enduring processes along with new tiny businesses constantly cropping up and businesses of all sizes decaying away into nothing. it's like, has the proletariat ever existed anywhere? or have we gotten all of this stuff about the proletariat wrong? I think there's a case for that, that we've attributed a bunch of stuff to the proletariat that is actually due to a bunch of other more complex processes that Lenin somehow navigated correctly without bothering to explain. so, there are different models of Marxism. there is "Marxism-Stalinism" (thanks [[E:The Excessive Subject (Rothenberg 2010)|Rothenberg]]), there is Marxism-Dengism, and there are possibly others. there may be a Marxism-Trotskyism that somehow no Trotskyist has actually discovered yet but would become a theory if they all turned around and realized that they were promoting division instead of unity and the destruction of Communist Internationals instead of the creation of a meta-Marxist type International containing all viable Marxisms. it's not entirely clear yet how many valid but unappreciated variants of Marxism there are.

Trotskyists could not figure this out and tried to operate from the model that society has a single consciousness and it needs to all become Trotskyist, rather than that Trotskyists are a new tiny society that suddenly sheared off from the main society. it was equally dangerous for the CPSU to not realize that Trotskyites were not necessarily ready to be squashed into the main population. Bolshevism faces a thorny contradiction: capitalism is the division of society into arbitrary competing chunks, nations are the division of humanity into arbitrary competing chunks, humanity must be unified to get rid of class rule and prejudice, humanity cannot be unified all at once, the presence of division threatens to destroy Bolshevism, forced unification threatens to become colonial prejudice against nationalities, the "ideal" position is clearly to get upset at Communists for locking down around separate countries but not let them do anything to create a Third International and unify countries together, shattering every part of Communism. of course, all you have to do to fix this is realize that in the grand scheme of things small chunks are similar to big chunks. if Stalin isn't allowed to promote socialism in one country then Trotsky isn't allowed to create a second party. inversely, if Trotsky wants to be allowed to organize people for Trotskyism what he should do is allow Stalin's government to create their party and attempt to join together with them as a parallel Marxism so each of them will be stronger. each one doing different things internally but united on the outside. it kills me that the Soviet Union can exist as 14 parallel populations and nobody ever thinks of this. even if Trotskyism feels like the point of it is to act on huge scales it could still focus its energy on operating in the areas that glue "Stalinist" countries together. this is the way Leninist parties function. they are things put together into a whole, not an adversarial process. this is one of the only things that remains when a country transitions to Deng Xiaoping Thought giving it continuity back to Leninism that makes it just barely admissible as "a Marxism" even if its status as Leninism/Bolshevism is dubious or void. 
so, yeah. the big problem with Communist Internationals is that they have to start from teeny scales deep inside populations and go up to the international scale, because the true place humanity gets divided is the messy continuous divisions that can occur inside borders as well as at them. this poses problems for "revolution" when the teeny tiny splinter populations that spontaneously form every so often can easily be useless to nationwide movements and yet if a revolution goes through and you want to keep what you have, they really have to be accounted for or you have no way of stopping populations from fracturing into nothing all over again.

this issue is step zero toward getting Existentialism or anarchism to ever, ever succeed. forget meta-Marxism and finding the best Marxism — if you want anarchism to not be wiped off the face of the earth under the boot of a bunch of nazis you need to understand this. most signs of humanity being "kind" or "communitarian" or "social" are false signs. "community" as most people define it is a double-edged sword that also cuts people to pieces. commu-nity doesn't work. unless, of course, you want to give it a different, more narrow definition. 
the upshot of this is that it makes articles like the type specimen for "Existentialist inspiration porn" easier to intuitively identify as dubious. do you really know people coming together to fund a hospital is a good sign that people will continue to cooperate on things that aren't terribly basic, rather than shearing apart?

I think the answer tells us a lot about ideologies and whether people will be able to accept new models of how societies work. and not just new Bauplans of mainstream Marxism-Leninism or Kropotkinism or Deng Xiaoping Thought, but fundamentally, inner mental models of things like Menshevism and anti-racism and any change in society whatsoever. but funny enough, I think you begin fixing all that if you get mainstream Marxist-Leninists to coexist with Trotskyists, because the exact same basic difference between inner universes is manifest there.

(this is actually a problem with products sometimes, too. the inability to "negative-buy" something can keep products consistently unsatisfactory for a long time the more complicated and service-like and mired in exclusive deals the "product" gets.) not voting doesn't actually serve this purpose, because it doesn't counter the actions of all the people who voted for something when they shouldn't have. there isn't actually a form of voting which allows people to express "I really don't want this president" after the president is elected. approval rating doesn't do anything. there has to be a real threat of removing the president if people anti-vote hard enough.

I think what this reveals is that when people do observational studies to try to capture Lived Experiences they are misusing the concept of phenomenology. what they're really trying to do is more like "noumenology". they're trying to get at something which is inside which isn't the outer phenomenon people usually see. people are weird. in some senses you actually know what the hidden variables are inside the outer envelope of the particle. in other senses it's not usually practical to try to learn them most of the time. you have to do this weird thing of metagaming phenomenology to strategically decide what scale of model to use with how much fuzziness and "unpredictability".

a "relativistic Marxism" is in contradiction with the concept of a molecular Marxism. one resembles special relativity in being made from tiny reterministic pieces accelerating past each other that must stack up to history but do not have the ability to see or measure each other until they do, the other resembles quantum mechanics in being made from miscellaneous individuals assembling into shared consistent structures that assemble into bigger structures much like quarks assemble into protons that assemble into atoms. the sticky thing is in getting everyone angled toward RDem to work together with everyone hypothetically angled toward MDem. it's weirdly like humans really are giant particles somehow and the day we crack Marxism and the day we unify special relativity and quantum mechanics into some new "general quantum" theory will come right next to each other. spacetime and history are not as different as we want to believe, and may just be the same kind of thing at different scales. 
Teamwork is nothing, ontology is key + ?? = molecular Marxism.

I think that in some sense, yes, particles have to complete some kind of journey from reference frame A to reference frame B to be physical. and my long shot guess of how is that we make some kind of mistake in thinking that all the tiny reference frames can be put onto any single grid that's just one big warped sheet of spacetime instead of assuming the whole universe is more like one big ball of sand where all the grains are the reference frames. the divisions between the grains could be something of a mathematical artifact more than physical, a consequence of the joining of various grains to stretch and compact spacetime being the only thing in the universe that's truly unpredictable, a consequence of the one tiny gap between reality and mathematics that will never be crossed. even so I don't think that means we can't learn what gravity is. we can see it at larger emergent levels, so, assuming the borders between these reference frame grains were producing gravity, you'd solve the problem by making a probabilistic model kind of like how physicists papered over the difficulty of observing fundamental particles in quantum mechanics. I think a model of gravity as good as quantum mechanics is possible, even if it could be the case gravity is one of the few things so small we really cannot measure it and can really only calculate it backward calculus-style by measuring its effects. maybe penteract space and sand-grain reference frames are nonsense, but here's the most reasonable thing I'll say: I think there will one day be a small-scale model of gravity.

it often feels like the only way to strike at the root of it is to actually tell people, no, we have too many things, too many distinct individual things versus quantities of those things, you don't inherently deserve to create something, and if you agree not to create something new we don't inherently need you going to college — unless you already have a very specific trade to do and you know exactly what training is required. no, you're not inherently virtuous for doing more labor on something or getting more training. no, you're not inherently making the world better by creating a small business for people to give money to, you're exacerbating the problem of millions and millions of businesses constantly trying to drain people's attention. no, giving businesses a human face is not inherently good, because the more people can see a human face the more they'll want you to be absolutely perfect and try to get rid of you the moment you're not, and trust me, it will only hurt more if you're an Artist or the more you've put passion into it. you want to be faceless. the point of sociality is to make the individual faceless. to remove the individual from competition with other free-floating entities. you don't want parts of society and individuals to be the same thing. individuals eat and occupy space and hurt each other when they're starving and hold up guns. you don't want societal compartments doing that. society will always evolve. the act of doing labor will always actually pile up into the creation of new things like corporate studios that replace old things like artisanal practices. nobody wants to understand that for some reason, and the result is a million businesses constantly vying for everyone's attention with more opening every day and no end in sight. it seems like every time somebody gets upset at capitalism and is like "why is capitalism controlling me and stealing my attention" they go open another business and make the problem worse.

Work is stealing. Every act of working is stealing. Whenever you perform labor on anything you are always stealing the opportunity for someone else judiciously wielding their "non-narrative thinking" in order to believe in themselves to have done it better. White people steal from Black people all the time by working and telling them "you couldn't have done that thing as well as me, so you don't deserve a house loan, now get out of here". White people steal from Chinese people by trying to claim they can't take ownership of the patents and schematics other countries are making them produce. White people and Japanese people stole from Koreans by insisting there be a South Korea just so it could be part of UnitedStatesKoreaJapan instead of part of Korea. White people steal from Cubans by denying them the same trade routes they demand that other countries create just to stay standing and {{em|not}} get stolen. Nothing about the concept of stealing actually makes any sense. People complain about stealing existing and some group of people supposedly having stolen something when they feel like two groups of people are not forming relationships correctly and engaging in the exact same set of cultural rules and want to mark one of the groups of people as "cheating" at the act of forming into a single set of rules correctly. The concept of stealing was invented by Existentialist-Structuralist anarchologists. or at least, looking at the structure of the logic it'd seem that way. if you want to predict whether somebody will actually consider something to be "stealing" it's best to cross out all instances of that word and see if you can describe it with the word "cheating". as much as the concept of "cheating" is also subjective it does get at the slippery reasons that people actually reject things. nobody actually cares if you do or don't "own" an essay, as the world is cruel and nobody cares about the state of people successfully owning usable businesses or houses or not; what gets rules sheets and professors so weirdly furious about "plagiarism" is that it's cheating at the established system of ranking up within academia relative to a cloud of other living breathing people who are also trying to rank up and not get removed. every act of trying to do anything "honestly" is actually an act of trying to socially fit into a cloud of thousands of competing people who are all constantly individually judging you. 
and deep down, that really scares me. I always feel like no matter how hard I try at anything there's going to be some reason people will decide I'm not honest just because whenever I try anything I tend to reach a point where I am just too bad at some required part of doing a thing and I won't be able to do it "good" in a way that will make it intuitively feel "genuine" to them. maybe I try to make a video but I make it as a talk instead of a visual presentation, and I just know some people are going to hate it because it's a slideshow or an audio file or because I don't have any budget to spend on stock footage and I would have to doodle the slides or find images I have reason to believe are not special and meant to be used. maybe I try to write a book and discuss scientific thinking but I half know people are going to hate it because I don't truly know all the quantum mechanics math and I've been {{censor||bullshitt|ing}} my way around it with simpler math objects and a firm cage of well-checked propositions as I learn the good stuff slowly. maybe I try to create fiction but I know people are going to hate it because as much as I have really poured feeling and thought into it after however many years of trying I will not have become inherently good at Representing the Plurality of All Lived Experiences And Walks Of Life And How They Are All Inherently Relatable To Each Other On An Intuitive Level Without Science. maybe I try to build a proposition encyclopedia here but I know that if I have any fun with it people are going to hate it for a while until the day I make everything absolutely meta-ontologically sound so that all the Item pages are immediately comprehensible to people of every version of Marxism and also every bourgeois philosophy. and I'm naturally {{censor|shit}} at movements. if somebody is judging someone or angry at someone I can't talk water off a wet paper bag. everything I do every day even in my own building there is someone who is going to be judging me and telling me I'm not existing right and sometimes I don't want to wake up and exist when I swear other people are better at it than me and if I want to be honest and not a cheater I should just get out. 
It's like this. everything has become ridiculously Artisanal. the longer capitalism goes on the more every possible thing people can do becomes this weird little spatial slot hierarchy where honesty becomes synonymous with being actually talented and masterful at something and not doing something to the highest artisanal skill slowly becomes regarded as cheating and under some particular sets of conditions as stealing. Both sets of criteria are made up. they are fabricated on demand in response to contingent sets of conditions. and the role of them is to police the borders of a countable culture to enforce the physical constraint that it cannot contain an infinite number of people and must contain some finite number of people who follow each other's rules and like each other. inside a country every Culture is a {{censor|circlejerk}}. we are probably lying to ourselves that there's any such thing as Community at all. or maybe it's just that we confuse countable cultures with Community when that is one of the most improper models we could have. the bourgeoisie and Community are disgustingly intertwined. they {{em|will}} take the sheer act of existing in a population away from you and let a select Filament of people own that to the exclusion of new people being born. Existentialism-Structuralism must be stopped. we have to stop "tent of freedom poles" from getting to define what is stealing or cheating or ethical and what is human so all of these discussions stop being such nonsense and so hard to actually seal properly.

Marxists say that embodied cognition can teach people to take control of matter and society-objects, but most of the time, it seems that embodied cognition actually leads people to thinking that any complicated thing they can't imagine there being a model for is somehow "inherently intuitive", only solvable by intuition and not by philosophy or by math. they will "intuitionize" The Subject, social behavior, populations, freedom, the supposed convergence of different populations into Rhizome, and even non-social objects like quantum fields as supposedly being comprehensible through the natural ability of human beings to fit into society or subpopulations through intuition. the social capacities of humans go out of control, and suddenly everyone thinks that because frequencies and stochastic happenings exist in the universe that the universe is a mind and you can be one with it. really, it's the other way around — the universe is a lot of inanimate objects, and so is society above the individual scale, most likely comprehensible through math just as quantum mechanics is. 
one thing that really opened me up to this problem was Last Dragon Chronicles and the way it managed to present these actually-preposterous concepts in a way that wasn't as annoying as reading some sketchy webpage and in a lot of detail.

I bet the way people would talk about Communist movements would be really weird. let's throw aside a little of the premise for a second and assume that all Communists that exist in Last Dragon Chronicles are sensible and simply want to know how the universe actually works. at some point they're going to find out the universe is inherently intuitive and it's all a bunch of soul and feelings. what are they going to do with that? the thought I have is maybe to focus on the concept in book 3 of each legend being predicted by somebody else who needed it to happen, because that is bizarrely similar to the concept of trying to understand history, even if here the books are working more from a concept of local history than national history. also, what's the endgame. if you understand history are you going to turn into an alien. what is the relationship between Ultraman Series and these books

to be perfectly clear: a zero point energy {{em|is}} something. it's a set of particles or a physical object with energy removed. if there is such a thing as a zero point for mass it has to mean that there is a way to remove mass. and in one sense there might be. an electron and a positron can meet and annihilate and produce gamma rays and mass can go away, though apparently without being totally destroyed. why would a whole field have a positive resting value?

this statement is false on its face because the Russian Empire was not even a stationary combination of heterogeneous elements, it was a destructive opposition of heterogeneous elements. spatial hierarchy: combination of leaders conflated with disunited heterogeneous elements. anhierarchy: jumbled assortment of heterogeneous elements. anarchy: united combination of heterogeneous elements.

I don't think this claim has a wholly sinister connotation that bans the concept of anarchism.

to not fall into this trap and genuinely create an individualism, you'd have to explain how individuals can guarantee their own survival in a world where all individuals are physically in competition to exist and at any moment 1,000 individuals can simply come together and expel any particular individual into having utterly nothing for the most arbitrary of reasons, constantly snapping at the individual that every inch of the world and every object is claimed and owned and how dare you tread on it if they try to run away and go anywhere else. I doubt that that can even be done. all industrial societies are ranked competitions to Belong and Society the best and not Individual or Human the worst, where the individuals that are ranked the highest at creating peace and superficial equality have the greatest chance to reproduce and sort everyone else into exactly the location, job, culture, and identity they are allowed.

I think sociality has really wrecked the ability of human beings to comprehend the concept of what an individual object even is. there are certain disadvantages to human intelligence and this is one of them. it's not just that humans find patterns everywhere and start seeing supernatural beings, it's also that humans can't intuitively comprehend the concept of people not being part of other people despite all the evidence to the contrary that it is physically possible for people to be socially isolated.

I may have ended up coding this just because of one moment years ago when a Marxist video referred to Trotskyists as "snakes" and it really stuck with me in an indescribable way. I wouldn't say it upset me. it's almost like I found it funny, but not exactly. I was just... thinking about it occasionally, with a weird regularity. I think deep down, I was struck by the deep contrast between how obvious it is to mainstream Marxist-Leninists that Trotskyites can be treasonous conspirators but how completely non-obvious it was to absolutely everyone else, to the extent of changing and shaping the metaphors that people used to describe the situation. in some sense, both had to be true. it had to be true that Trotskyites were snakes, and Trotskyites were not snakes, at the same time. I settled onto the concept that they can be snakes and not be evil, just awkward noodles that sometimes hide themselves in the ground and don't fit in and will bite you if you step on them but aren't necessarily out to get you. 
there's a joke to be had somewhere within the classic United States newspaper cartoon of the snake joining or dying, the motif that things like these hide a secret snake conspiracy, and the Ironblood scenario I had sketched out of Trotskyists being the ones to save the United States in a world where every country eventually invents Communism or Anarchism — "I suppose conspiracies aren't always bad" or something like that

the great problem with defeating capitalism is that capitalism is already a government before it has a State, in the sense that parishes were tax-collecting governments or counties are governments, and the specific kind of government it is is a really bizarre and oppressive anarchism. capitalism is an anarchism, right now, today. it's a government composed of tiny population-society territories and the tiny population-governments of each town or region are formed into an anarchy. it's hard to dismantle the business territories even in the sense of separating them from their owners partly because people really really love anarchies on a visceral level and have a natural revulsion to dismantling any anarchy.

in context of the original poem Yeats speaks of some kind of idea of Zeitgeist and the signs of a society gradually exploding and tearing into nothing, followed by the Christian book of Revelation. the big idea is apathy — the inability of anyone to go on or anything to repair. 
in the context of meta-Marxism, the implication of appropriating this line is that the opposition of "apathy versus passionate intensity" doesn't come from "things falling apart", and instead comes from the system operating as designed. modern societies are anarchies from the beginning, stationary combinations of heterogeneous elements ruled by people deemed superior enough to be kind and wise peacemakers between the chunks. Aang is an inherently bourgeois idea. this false belief that "education", "community" and "niceness" inherently stop chunks from wanting to kill each other comes back to bite people as the inherent structure of the anarchy to begin with is the thing that tears it apart. a mere anarchy is loosed upon the world (anhierarchy) because a mere anarchy was loosed upon the world (anarchy). that's how structures work. if sodium chloride tears apart it's made of sodium and chloride ions. the same is true for chunks of people, which inherently expand and hurt each other unless on a deep internal level of social connection structure they aren't designed that way.

the United States has one big problem that it has never even had a "social-democratic" movement, it's only ever had a "free will" movement. you can attempt to build the nationwide free will party, but the only issue is that it will be terribly incompatible with Marxism because Marxism is based on localized determinism (either lambda-calculus determinism or reterminism), not on Free Will.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2" data-submitter="R.D.">Is the division between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism part of nature? -> I get the concept of saying that all class conflicts and acts of humans transforming their environment (labor) are part of nature because they're part of human nature or the human animal. that's fine. but I think this concept gets really fuzzy when it comes down to the need to talk about conflicts between human populations which are shearing away from each other and becoming separate nationalities. like, is the emergence of the Trotskyite conspiracy a moment in the greater development of the human animal? that sounds silly. it doesn't sound silly to say that about conflicts between kingdoms or the Russian Revolution, which feels quite significant among hundreds of interesting points in human history. but there is something unique about the Trotskyite conspiracy that makes it feel especially petty and pointless. and my guess is that the reason it feels that way is it's the genuine division of one human population into two separate human populations for arbitrary reasons. things that feel like they're accomplishing something usually happen inside one population, or a set of populations that threatens to forcefully merge, which "effectively" act as one population. but Trotskyism was one of those weird moments when humanity genuinely invented splitting. you can't even say this about countable cultures in general, because there are moments when they come together peacefully and it feels like something was accomplished. early Trotskyism is uniquely pointless in a way very few other things are. 
the one thing about this that does not confuse me is that I think Marx's concept that humanity can understand and control its own development continues to make perfect sense. [https://vidak.substack.com/p/marx-naturalism-anachronism-and-the] you need a new and very different Marxism to put two separate populations together, but it isn't inconceivable when you think about situations where two Marxisms did attempt to form in the same country and thus were already side by side in a sense. Marx says that everything humans do has a certain significance of being an arrangement of social links, even the exchange of food recipes. the conclusion is that in one sense all problems including a population dividing in two come down to the ability to control the overall shape of a collection of social graphs.

the thing that made me stop considering the possibility of an afterlife was just thinking about how previous civilizations had existed and ancient Egyptians had a particular afterlife in mind and probably their own NDEs but for some reason nobody pictures that now or has NDEs about that now and it's very weird that people's internal image of the afterlife would have changed so drastically that we don't even really necessarily know now what the most vivid images of the afterlife would have looked like to them. what's potentially a whole different afterlife just, vanished. of course, maybe if you were an ancient Egyptian exactly what you would have seen in an NDE is returning to earth and flying over it, simply seeing an afterlife where earth continues without you and the soul you have supposedly become coexists invisibly on that same earth. maybe the origins of the ba story are something like that.

this has huge implications for a lot of things including the arts. there's no such thing as art which is pure individual expression independent of other art that exists. there's always a background competition to know exactly what a genre of competing people is "the best, more than other people do" to then be able to participate in it and create something new which both fits into it and impresses people, which gets harder and harder every decade as more things are made and nobody thinks about how many things each generation effectively has to know about. if you trained an AI not on current art but on the premises of all books starting way back in 1800 or so versus what's current, it's actually in question whether biological humans have a long enough memory and attention span to do that task well. this isn't to say AIs are good but it is to say that we dramatically underestimate the role of interactions between individuals in determining what art is versus the role of the individual artist, expression, or "lived experience". the actual emergence of successful art likely looks more like small-scale determinism than some kind of triumph of individual will. think of it this way: can just anyone create a new Chinese word, or do you have to be highly versed in all the nuances and situations of speaking Chinese?

[https://www.britannica.com/topic/Maori-language] -> no matter how descriptivist you are, there has to be a working set of rules about what is and isn't speaking Chinese, where if you don't follow them, inclusion is not possible. 
the difficulty of determining the difference between "beginner understandings" and "prejudice" is one of the biggest snags for trying to apply either Existentialism or anarchism. the fact that culture always does have a definition even as it shifts and evolves makes it really difficult to actually create coexistence and tolerance between countable cultures when they will so frequently act offended just because somebody isn't performing their specific rules well and is instead performing a different set of rules well. this shows us that culture is never truly about the content, and is always about the degree of connection between the individual and a particular countable culture — a person at a low rank of fitting-in in one countable culture can easily be at a high rank of fitting-in in another one, thus the sort of "discipline process" of learning to do a culture right and not wrong belongs wholly to one countable culture assigning belonging-ranks to its own individuals, not to the world or to humanity. assuming that prejudice leads to exclusion is therefore a faulty assumption, because prejudice would be cultural content of one culture (example: Southern Baptist Christians excluding gay people), but it isn't the content that actually binds people together, it's their ability to fit together around the same rules into a shared culture-object as individuals. it isn't the fact that people write in Chinese characters that makes them not understand Spanish and say it doesn't look much like Chinese, it's the fact that different people have greater or lesser connection to the connected body of Chinese speakers, which passes around evolving definitions of what is spoken or written Chinese. 
I already feel this concept going a lot more places. just you wait until I come back a little while from now with a killer theory of how the Chinese language is somehow a perfect metaphor for the difference between mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism. this concept of all molecular-scale structure being [[Term:Filamentism|Filamentist]] hierarchy until it's Marxism has a really wide scope at the end of the day

this is an easy fallacy to get into when there have been protests because [[E:protest brain|people will think the protests actually cause people to like each other]] and it isn't necessarily true. what changes people and causes them to start solving for themselves more productively is individually being put into a position of having to defend themself from the majority or the most powerful small rings of people, regardless of if anyone else is there with them. the big thing that matters is [[E:Trotsky is your new hero|whether people choose to stay in that disadvantaged position just because it's right]] even if a lot of people there hate them and want to send them back to the reactionary side. you can't make groups of people be nice to each other or be friends, no matter how serious and well-read a schizoanalyst theorist you are. people are going to behave unpredictably to each other and you need to keep them together even as some of them treat each other with utter cruelty and don't behave like friends or comrades at all. it's at that point that either people develop true integrity, sticking to a faction even if everyone on it is terrible purely because they study science and mathematics and look beyond all the confused people around them saying slightly wrong things to seek what's true, or the whole thing crumbles. empathy really doesn't cut it any more in an age where everyone is inherently competing on everything ever including communicating on newsfeeds or getting into subreddits or promoting inclusive minority businesses for just one minority and nobody is friends. community is nothing, materialism is key.

(whether this is true is... complicated. there are some times that would seem true and some times where it would seem really misleading.) the reference video actually gives a material reason in that wealth versus austerity causes the reversion. however, it seems ridiculously easy to argue this same thing without bringing up that legitimate model, and simply go arguing that Bolshevism is one big distraction while Un-Progressive Hierarchies need to be fought on a separate level regardless of whether it is amenable to Bolshevism or squashes Bolshevism. the video used Freud trying to argue the first reason while not realizing Freudian and Jungian models (although Lacanian models less so) are absolutely ripe for arguing the second reason. 
one of the major errors in this video is assuming that Soviet people can control what other countries outside them are doing. they can't. that's di- intelligent design, that's the Shenlong effect. reality experiences the Vegeta effect. when you're standing in the United States, you can't actually say "I'll fix the Soviet Union by changing the United States' Free Will toward Communism", because if you're on the Communist side you don't have access to the non-Communist side's will. to think the two sides will fire off at once without a hitch is basically Trotskyism, or nearly equivalent to it. Trotskyism is traditionally defined as multiple separate countries suddenly synchronizing, but when you define it specifically by its errors versus reality, you see that that error could apply to parts of the same fracturing country as easily as it does to two bigger separate countries. so that's the crux of this. you have to either be in the totally non-Communist movement to change the United States or in the Soviet Union, you can't be in both countries at once.

I think part of the problem is that people very quickly vulgarize "the conditions in another country" into "lived experience" because without already having a historical materialist framework they can't even comprehend what large countable cultures containing causes and effects would look like. 
my thoughts on this: I think people might learn best through the visual language of fantasy books. it's a little more common than not for people to look at a fantasy book and say it's perfectly okay for a particular historical process to happen as it does even if there's collateral damage, while equivocating and complicating the need to overcome a particular conflict is stupid. at the moment people talk about "villains" they kind of almost understand history. 
the only real problem is when people think they understand a historical process and jump up on their high horse as if they were analyzing it through dialectical materialism when they actually aren't, and they've mentally swapped dialectical materialism and filtration. they've created filtration but they've created non-Marxist filtration that isn't amenable to Marxism, and then they take the high ground like, you gotta get on board the historical process, but they've got Lacanianism at best, they don't have Marxism.

Christians are afraid of crime and rival kingdoms all mysteriously moving around outside, they form into a church. Muslims are afraid of kingdoms conquering each other, they form into a caliphate. capitalism promises "freedom", it practically creates the need for workers to cluster into large corporations so survival will be more predictable and for somebody to be at the head of that corporation predicting everything on the outside so those people can get a paycheck. a Deng Xiaoping state forms when countries have a greater need to be vigilant against war and not make stupid mistakes in their survival than the need to let individuals fight with each other and pursue totally experimental ideas and structures. it follows that when uncertainty goes away, there is a greater potential to republicanize any particular workplace, taking away particular points of authority and handing authority only to "standard procedure".

if I can be brutally honest for a moment? it reeks of First World privilege for people to think that a bunch of people just standing around and willing something can get people whatever they want. if you have access to lots and lots of money that peasants would clamor over each other to have, or your gigantic continental government has access to all that money supposedly, of course you can have whatever you want. of course it will seem like anyone who does anything but beg owners of giant local-state-sized swaths of industry to pay money to support anything else when paying it would take away their ability to make more ability to help "clearly" doesn't understand history and "clearly" isn't doing anything productive. clearly, history gets less violent as all the power funnels into the United States and all the other countries lose their governments and everyone can just vote on things but they have to be White. and everybody else is stupid. everyone who's a peasant and hasn't created capitalism only has to work harder to be able to vote in about 50 years. but the cherry on top is that if the whole world knits together into Liberal-republicanism it will spend its time dividing in two and generating blood feuds just so it's supposedly "fair" and isn't "totalitarian".

point in favor of this: historically, empire is the simplest way to join populations. empire joined the fracturing populations of Germany, England, China, Japan, old Korea, India, the list goes on and on. so if Liberal-republicanism is absurdly simple, too simple to possibly work, that it would devolve into humanity's simplest method of joining large populations is not surprising. none of these were colonialism yet. that only started to develop when two populations could smash into each other, like European empires and North American tribes. but what if two majority-ethnicity populations were smashing into each other and trying to expand over each other and siphon away each other's land inside a kingdom? well, then that could potentially be colonialism.

"ideas, attitudes" won't cut it; you really have to know and predict what each idea produces in reality to know whether any idea will be useful.

I'm surprised that half of all dystopia books aren't already written this way, considering the way every educated person reports on life in their own country. is it that dystopia is softly assumed to only happen elsewhere, even when it supposedly takes place in the author's country? is it that an instance of the United States which has fallen is considered a foreign country?

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Communist parties, hierarchical, are bad / Communist parties are bad because they are hierarchical -> this is contradictory because one typical point of evidence is that people can be expelled from Communist parties, but anarchisms also use expulsion in much the same way and claim it's not hierarchy any more just because it's theirs, just because anarchism is a connected whole and that supposedly can't be a hierarchy. expulsion has to either be hierarchy or not. and I think there's a better case it isn't. only in cases of imperialism where a few White people want to extend their population over the world and rule it does expulsion become a serious thing where not being in a particular country is bad. ordinary people really don't know the difference between non-colonial and colonial and almost get the two backwards so that colonial is freedom and non-colonial is empire.

Christianity has always said it's not about prejudice because anyone can become Christian and if they would just become Christian and simultaneously abandon all other religion and magic ritual the world could be united. Trotskyism makes essentially the same error, coercing anarchists and mainstream Marxists-Leninists into Trotskyism just because of the vacuous truth that if everyone was Trotskyist everyone would be Trotskyist. does most Liberal-republicanism or anarchism have a grounding which is any better than this? is any of it prepared for the possibility that somebody genuinely does not want to be part of a particular group of people, and all the "community" and "anti-prejudice" you can manage wouldn't be enough to fix that? "dem"-"ocracy" is just fine if people are part of the Demos in the first place, but what if they aren't? what do you do when there are multiple separate Demotes that distinctly don't want to be controlled by each other as a matter of national autonomy and self-determination?

I have to say, this is one of those propositions where my first response is simply "that's icky, I don't like it" without an actual reason, where I then have to really stop and think on what is actually wrong with it because I know "icky" is not an argument. I think one possible starting point is the proposition that art must represent its audience rather than its author. that way you rule out art getting to be racist just because a bunch of White people had unique experiences and are such good artists that are so good at being unique individuals that we don't need Media Representation — people absolutely will say this if you let them. all the spontaneity and biographical detail and seconds and minutes of irreplaceable Lived Experience you can muster means nothing if it doesn't represent the audience rather than the author.

I do think artistic abstraction exists. also... it looks like this book is largely an attempt to justify fiction as memoir. I think that's dangerous when it comes to the role of fiction as "education". if a country contains 90% one ethnic group and 10% another one, you want about the top 80% of people making art that's almost totally abstracted from real life, or art simply becomes softly racist as everybody gets flooded with the experiences of one particular ethnic group. it's really much better to have White people focusing all their energy into things like {{book|Harry Potter}} and {{book|Warriors}} so there's space for minorities to write all the more biographical stories that actually manage to teach people about experiences they haven't had.

"the first" Trotskyism was mostly composed of anticommunists but anyone can take it and fill it with workers (assuming they have unreal levels of skill, of course), so it's harder to categorically say that Trotskyism itself is anticommunist even despite all the times it's wrong. similarly Western-Marxism can be wrong a whole lot of the time but not necessarily always malicious.

I quite literally heard about Engels' work as good from mainstream Marxist-Leninists and Trotskyist pages, as a non-Communist, before I ever heard this one. I think that really goes to show what an utter bubble disconnected from ordinary people "the New Left" actually lives in. like, my whole life I've been a socially isolated nerd, but somehow I've never been as isolated in a remote ivory tower as The New Left, to the point I heard "correct" Marxism before I ever really heard of them. Richard Wolff is the only exception where I had any contact at all with anticommunist Western-Marxists and their theory. and as far as I can remember he never managed to confuse me and make me think that what he was doing was remotely the same thing as Bolshevism. I think it was always relatively intuitive to me that "Marxism" and "Western Marxism" were potentially different things. so it is particularly puzzling to me that anybody could think that early Western-Marxism is the one true Marxism. if you have the slightest bit of intuition for [[E:duplexing|duplexing]] or meta-Marxism you'd at least realize that there isn't one true Marxism in that specific sense, and realize that instead there are always plural Marxisms. what stops us from this? is it imperialism? is it the tendency to think that because White culture is the only culture that ever existed and Marxism seeks to find the one correct model of the world, this means Western-Marxism must be the only Marxism? 
the one thing that always makes Western Marxism so complicated for me is it's the favorite Marxism for minorities to appropriate to claim that Marxism is the best theory for, and solely designed for, ridding the United States of racism. you have one faction of people which is appropriating Gramsci and Marcuse to claim that Marxism is a theory of anti-racism, and then you have one faction of people who is using the same theorists to claim almost literally that Russians are inherently bad and Bolshevism could never succeed because of bad Russian culture that isn't White culture — you see, even if Russians look White they can't possibly be White because they don't have Democracy. which is a cultural idea, not a practiced material structure that could exist within Bolshevism. they oppressed a single individual with the correct ideas instead of including him through tent of freedom poles and that means that Russians are a savage race that must be fought by real White people until they physically include White individuals with good ideas in their society. this is not neocolonialism, it's just Democracy.

I think it was one of the basic theorists like Marx, Engels, or Lenin but I do not remember. 
here are my thoughts on this: abstract concepts don't have to exist in nature to be useful. but freedom is in entirely another category from something like, say, irrational numbers or [[E:Is topology a threat to Marxism?|topological spaces]]. you can learn tons and tons of math and it could be all of it is only useful to creating a workers' state and bringing people together and none of it is harmful. but if you have the wrong model of freedom it could lead you to destroy society, divide populations from each other, or even start a war. I'm not confident there is no model of freedom which is safe. all I know on that is that everyone in the United States always uses the bad ones, even anarchists use bad ones, and I am really tired of those.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">If free will doesn't exist, what did Trotsky exercise? -> in the United States and sometimes in Britain, Trotsky is the prototypical example of why "freedom", "dialogue" or "debate", and "pluralism" are supposedly important, and why supposedly "letting factions turn into a totalitarian state" is bad. I think it's no exaggeration to say he has fully been integrated and appropriated into Liberal-republicanism right next to Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and John Stuart Mill. this makes about as much sense as Christians reading off versions of Jewish scripture copied in by Jewish Christians and appropriated by the Roman Empire — maybe it did at one point in history, but it makes no sense today. the crux of that entire appropriation process lies in the concept of Freedom. Trotsky can be appropriated by right-Liberalism because he supposedly demonstrates what it means to be free, and to exert one's will to become free. and what do we call that? it would seem to be one of the most clear-cut demonstrations of whether "free will" does or doesn't exist. if you do believe Free Will exists, you'll say Trotsky turned away from the Soviet Union because he has Free Will, partly defined as the physical and psychological autonomy from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. if you don't believe Free Will exists, you'll have a much longer and surely much more interesting account of exactly why Trotsky didn't turn around and reintegrate himself with the only country and political faction that had ever suited him. 
I remember some Marxist text saying "freedom can be important even if it doesn't exist in nature". and ever since then I've been doubting that claim, going, okay, but if we assume nature doesn't refer to wolf packs and it refers to things like geological processes, chemical reactions, Newtonian mechanics, and general relativity, isn't it important to know what freedom really is or fails to be as it fails to exist within the whole universe? if we don't answer that question it's super easy to turn freedom around against the world proletariat and use it as a weapon to lead everyone into "[[E:undialectical idealism, historical non-materialism, and class non-analysis|undialectical idealism]]". this is how the Cold War, or the first phase of the forever cold war, was won. the major tactic has been to take these very particular constructs like "freedom" and "community", which are each described with models that are probably wrong, and unite all the bourgeoisie around them and then unite everyone else to the bourgeoisie around Freedom and Community specifically because they want Freedom and Community. the French Revolution didn't just happen once, it's a nasty process that regenerates itself over and over far beyond the point it's harmful.

[https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1468-5922.12356] my issue with this isn't really that you're not allowed to call any and all material parts of a country "culture"; you look at something like the Workers' Party of Korea and they'll be saying "culture" but they actually mean the structure and activities of the population, where the whole population with all its moving parts is a countable culture. instead, I think my issue is that you can't just take parts of an individual and say that's culture because an individual isn't really a countable culture — not truly. things an individual is wholly imagining, like if you have Susie Deltarune standing in the supply closet perceiving a card soldier that is entirely in her mind versus in her hand or in the closet, are culture. but Susie being a Monster or being a girl are not culture. I'd add that this is because I think transgender identity is partly material, but I don't even think that matters at all for this discussion, I think the Susie example nails it pretty well. you have to have this minimum amount of choice (insert Deltarune joke here) in what you are or what identity group you are standing in for something to be culture. you take Trotsky and him identifying as a Trotskyist might fairly be called culture because he chose to be there. but having a gender identity is mostly not chosen, it's only the last bit of uncertainty in what group of people they want to hang around that people have to choose to collapse.

[https://www.thechinaguide.com/blog/chinese-ethnic-groups] this is probably some kind of conflict between separate Muslim ethnic groups conflicting over which one is really Muslim, and accusing each other of siding with the central government to oppress each other. because that's just kind of how religion goes. in Iraq and Afghanistan when invasions destabilized the country they split into religious sects fighting each other and the sects would side with imperial powers to oppress each other. even in the UK religious sects leveraged the monarchy to oppress each other and for Protestants to try to eliminate Catholics from Ireland and take their land. religion just does this, uses any center of power as a fulcrum to eliminate other religions.

let's make it really simple: a group of cats that doesn't understand the benefits of getting along with other cats forms into ShadowClan. it's not like the first arc of {{book|Warriors}}, and the ShadowClan cats help each other out in order to survive. then they casually treat the other clans in awful ways and try to take over their territories. are "society", "community", and so-called "[[E:a crumb of socialism|social-ism]]" inherently good things, or are they instead potentially bad things that [[E:the community delusion|blind everyone]] to [[:Category:Historical materialism ontology (general-sense)|the real way]] pluralities of societies function against each other?

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">State education is Lacanian discipline -> this is basically assumed in any non-Marxist theory that thinks having classes about the history of racism will fix everyone's problems. the first question anyone should ask when somebody doesn't believe in historical materialism and calls it "predicting history" is: okay, if history classes aren't about predicting what general things could happen in the future then what is the purpose of teaching history classes? out in the real world, it might take you a while to genuinely get a straight answer. but I feel like what is waiting at the bottom of that conversation is this. people think of all behavior in terms of bad things your father or your sister or your classmates or your teacher [[E:no of The Father|told you not to do]]. accordingly they think all behaviors identified as good or bad can be taught this way, in a kind of rote memorization of what's good and bad. of course, there are deep flaws in this. what if people think speaking Spanish is a bad behavior, or "looking gay"? there is no real distinction between behaviors that are prohibited because they are actually bad and behaviors that are prohibited purely to make people obey some arbitrary cultural standard that everyone was arbitrarily taught, and if somebody is even once scolded for a behavior that isn't actually harmful that person will get deeply upset and start to drift out of society and turn against every group of people that scolded them improperly. and unfortunately, reactionaries are always the people most able to productively apply this finding. every single time you scold a single Tory-leaning White person for something which is ultimately neutral you'll get hundreds of thousands of Tories standing up to you on what you "did" to the Tory subpopulation. 
I have always leaned toward the idea that a lot of Tories would be much better at learning historical materialism than they would be at learning "diversity and inclusion" or "anti-racism". if you teach people about whole countries and to portray whole countries correctly as a material process, or to think about subpopulations inside their own country similarly, they'll eventually understand how to give realistic portrayals of people from other populations. if you just pound them over the head with "bad bad bad" for [[E:a regular Arab, not an evil one|every single tiny mistake]] they will have a hard time learning the correct picture that's far far bigger and more complex than any of the individual scoldings. it's like seeing somebody not understand general relativity and scolding them for not being able to give an entire presentation about how the scale of photons leads up to time and why single-variable equations may be bad for modeling the universe "because everybody should know that". especially when there is such a contradiction between nice words like "sensitivity" and "inclusion" and the crude, almost barbaric methods of enforcing them that are not at all based in Lived Experience or empathy and as far as I can tell can't teach them.

the thing a lot of people fail to think about is that this exists for every language. Chinese has weirdly succinct idioms and proverbs, leading to "long time no see". English has "nothingburger".

I swear that a Let's Play of {{book|Dynasty Warriors}} or {{book|Nobunaga's Ambition}} disproves Rothenberg's book. the argument really is that bad. really, I feel like if you read enough books within {{book|Warriors}} it shows that this model is wrong, because everyone writing even a fake history book knows that historical periods are not just collections of arbitrary events and instead they contain causality inside them.

of course, if you look at things this way you can immediately see that the historical record in the geological strata is explained by material processes, namely evolutionary processes. it's almost harder to deny general-sense historical materialism than it is to accept it.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Every nation is an ethnic group / An ethnic group is an arrangement of one or more countable groups of people each graphed together around shared social relationships and culture, and every consistent group of people which stays together for a long time will become some kind of ethnic group -> this is one of my single biggest problems with anarchism. anarchism finds the concept of ethnic groups yucky, and in order to try to get rid of racism keeps trying to act like it's totally artificial. but most anarchist theory which isn't totally unconvincing is based on tribal societies. and what are tribal societies if not ethnic groups? Black versus White might not be a necessary ethnic grouping, but when you form people into a tribe of anarchists or the Democrat nation that is going to become an ethnic group. Marxists are not afraid of the fact that a revolution or re-forming of a society creates an ethnic group. they just say, here is the Ukrainian SSR and here is the Lithuanian SSR and they are not enemies, and call it a day. anarchists seem to find this almost some kind of inconceivable injustice. it's like they think that all individuals on earth naturally want to form together into bigger populations but they don't want to acknowledge that there is anything that binds particular people together against outside threat or against having to be in a group they don't want to be in, when there totally is. everybody could just not be racist and people would still want to form into specific groups for particular reasons, not to just form together with any group of people at random. this is the basic origin of ethnic groups. that people are fundamentally plural based on having stronger links to some people than other people that divide them into separate graphs. this plurality doesn't prevent forming ethnic groups into larger ethnic groups or forming very large ethnic groups like a huge area of Russians, but you have to acknowledge that it's there. every successful group of people that becomes a country for any significant period of time is basically an ethnic group going by the simplest and most inclusive, non-judgemental definition of what an ethnic group is. for any group of people to have freedom or independence there has to be an ethnic group, and it's the graph connections inside the ethnic group that create a country, not the definition of an area of land or some long line called the national border. 
it follows from this claim that smaller groups of people which do not easily form into a larger ethnic group organically will not do well at forming a country, or a "democracy". only correct arrangement of cultures into cultures into cultures actually promotes a healthy ethnic group which in turn promotes a healthy republic.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat has three scales / There are three scales of the proletariat / There are three scales at which the proletariat is divided: the corporate scale, the scale of countable cultures, and the republican scale 
this statement is false if there is a distinct fourth or fifth scale which is fully separate from either of these. for instance, I find religion hard to separate from countable cultures, I think those are the same thing, and I find political factions hard to separate from countable cultures. countable cultures can overlap or contain each other but that alone doesn't mean there is another countable scale. the republican scale is an entire nation-state such as "the United States" or "China". during events like the Trotskyite conspiracy the national scale will be challenged but a full nation-state is not created yet, so it's the countable culture scale.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat is identical with {{TTS|html=abbr|cultures|cultures|title=countable culture-populations}} / The proletariat is identical with countable cultures (cultures, countable culture-populations; meta-Marxism) -> the claim that Marxists have been interpreting what the proletariat is slightly incorrectly, because while many people assume the proletariat merely emerges inside existing populations, the reality hypothesized here is that the proletariat is populations. the proletariat is the state of the people of a population being graphed together into a population, with the plurality and physical gaps between populations being part of the definition of what the proletariat is — or to be more precise, what proletariats are. Liberal-republicans get horrified by Bolshevism because they think that when all the people in a country are graphed together things are going backward, but they don't realize that if you remove the bourgeoisie, people graphed into Lithuania and graphed into Estonia and graphed into Russia is exactly the kind of structure that remains, the 14 separate republics each graphed together into a single population and government are a large part of what the proletariat is; the only thing missing from that definition is the potential for any particular proletariat to split into smaller proletariats at any time for a complicated variety of reasons. 
there is a particular reason people haven't discovered this. people want to think of the proletariat as a simple collection of millions of tiny objects called proletarians, when they don't realize that what they're really looking for is the whole group of proletarians being one big object yet one object which does not cover the world. Lenin got this correct, by mobilizing the proletariat with people of different classes and movements to all form a nation-wide movement. this is one example of correctly understanding the proletariat as the overall population of Georgia, etc., when it is in its purest form. what causes huge problems is when individual countries [[E:multicapitalism|break into multiple proletariats]]. practically speaking, they will behave like they are different countries even though there is no mechanism for them to operate as different countries and even if they are horribly scattered so one "country" is mixed into every fifty people of another "country". 
anarchists have this very wrong idea that culture-populations are natural (so far so good) but also that culture-populations naturally want to merge together and coexist, and a lack of Freedom is the only thing preventing this. this is wrong. there can be two Iroquois tribes with all the freedom in the world and one day people in one tribe can just start killing people in the other. the tribes don't actually coexist until they solidly form a combined structure capable of regulating them which they are obligated to be part of and can't secede from. the moment two countable cultures don't effectively reciprocally own each other and they gain freedom they have the capacity to kill. you absolutely can't conceptualize colonialism and "bad governments" as a matter of freedom, it just doesn't work that way. the worst thing is that at the republican scale it's sometimes hard to even force populations to reciprocally own each other. sometimes populations are simply big enough and self-sufficient enough they'll tear away from you and out of the reciprocal ownership. so, the ideal scenario is that Ukraine agrees to reciprocal ownership with the Soviet Union, but if Ukraine tears out of its own will to support some reactionary group of people, then people have not naturally merged together and anarchism is false. it doesn't mean anarchism is true. it means something more like that anarchism is false but fascism is true. a group of human beings joined around culture and [[E:poetry (flair)|poetry]] and hope hard enough simply cannot be controlled and will fight you to the death, and at least win its own life if it has strong enough structures and tight enough internal links. this is people's genuine free will, not a corruption of it. so inasmuch as free will exists at all the only good answer is that free will is bad. freedom is one big nothing burger that goes many roads but ends up nowhere, and free will is bad because it is anti-science and anti-reality. free will is Susie sitting in the middle of her decrepit room hallucinating Image_Friend.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Homelessness is not a proletarian issue / Homelessness is fundamentally an issue created and faced by the bourgeoisie which is only handed down to the proletariat -> this is going to deeply confuse and maybe upset some people, until they understand the rather complicated model I'm trying to describe and begin calmly evaluating the whole model as accurate or inaccurate. so, here goes. homelessness results from a low availability of houses. a low availability of houses results directly from people not having the income to pay for houses. you can blame landlords, but you don't have control over their minds or how they behave; the baseline state is that nobody has any power to stop landlords. in the age of capitalism, people can accumulate power over landlords when they have the power to produce an income, and otherwise they lose power quickly. whether people have the power to produce an income largely depends on bad decisions by the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie are always making various bad decisions like abolishing corporate departments and laying off hundreds of people, chopping up big businesses into small businesses, opening teeny tiny businesses that will die in a year, making their corporation entirely about a particular circle of White people that won't let in Black people and acting still like whatever a corporation does or does not do is a matter of Freedom, requiring unrealistic amounts of experience for an entry level job, hiring only overqualified people and softly extinguishing the proletariat rather than figuring out how to put everyone to work, and so on, and so forth, not to mention the people who end up pushed out of capitalism by all these bad decisions and are forced to create new tiny businesses and become owners just because the existing corporations wouldn't let them in — these people are a little less bad but they can make plenty of harmful mistakes too. capitalism is so broken now that the whole thing has been slowly dissolving into just the bourgeoisie versus the bourgeoisie. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who make terrible decisions and refuse to analyze and direct populational development with science. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who have been manufactured by these terrible decisions and have little chance of ever becoming workers again unless we fix the overall science and bad decisions crisis. the blue bourgeoisie, and the strawberry bourgeoisie. it isn't really about actual class divisions now. it's about uniting all the strawberry-tinted people and keeping them as tightly connected as possible just so they can survive and stand up to the people who keep them all from surviving, just so the strawberry-tinted people won't watch their teeny businesses crumble or so they can get apartments, just so people can ever have the faintest hope of having a reform movement or a "democratic" anything. homelessness is not a proletarian issue any more, it's just strawberry. it's just strawberry and crimson against blue and brown.

I feel like in a better world we'd teach every single "progressive" degree and several others about Gödel's incompleteness theorem, maybe you'd even learn it in high school. we'd teach high school students that only observations can actually lead to knowledge, not logic or reasoning. funny enough I think that might knock more people out of religion than something like teaching evolution, just because people would actually realize that things they see when all alone probably aren't real.

Deng Xiaoping Thought could very literally be a member of the Western-Marxist tradition just because China is now a First World country and is still more or less practicing it. 
this is where the model of abandoning "The West versus The East" in favor of "First World countries versus Third World countries" really has an advantage. you don't need to say "Japan is a Western nation" or "China has Westernized" where the axis of capitalist alliances between First World countries is the actual thing uniting them against countries that suffer imperialism rather than "culture".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Class is development, not wealth -> many Marxists accidentally fall into the wealth-brain trap where petty bourgeoisie are essentially bad because they have wealth, or the ability to buy education and be educated. this isn't what classes are. classes come from the development of enduring structure. a king only exists because a bunch of people are arranged into a kingdom. a count only exists because people are arranged into some kind of town that the count is vital to or into some centrally-drawn county within a feudal order. a capitalist only exists because people are arranged into a corporation. so there are two ways for the capitalist to not exist: the corporation being absorbed into something bigger so the capitalist has no role in creating it, or the whole corporation dissolving and leaving nothing. the corollary of this statement is that if capitalism shatters and a bunch of petty bourgeoisie are created in order for people in a "corporation desert" to survive, it's not specifically a matter of a population being "privileged" or "greedy" or "colonial, full of the colonizer attitude" or "sinful", it's simply a population going backwards in development which needs some way to develop forwards.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The proletariat and bourgeoisie are diametrically opposed -> strictly speaking, this is not always true. for instance, there can be times where both the proletariat and the bourgeoisie have an interest in creating a functioning business structure and making sure it doesn't collapse and leave all the workers unemployed. this is especially true for Director types that are earning significant salaries for actually designing things about the business territory or the individual project to the point of indirectly putting workers into roles or firing workers. let's look at MrEnter trying to create a TV show: he has elaborate plans for practically everything in the TV show, and he only needs to put people into place storyboarding and animating things he has already designed. in terms of having created the project and being the one who will take it to market he should be the capitalist. but he makes a lot of decisions to the point his decisions can affect whether the show succeeds or fails and whether he practically has the money to pay his workers or a simple debt to them. there is a significant problem today, especially as big businesses spontaneously collapse, of a lot of businesses reverting back to a state where the capitalist and the worker are not very differentiated. they're just two peasants bound together both trying very hard to produce something. this makes it hard to apply traditional models of "the capitalist is purely a landlord and the workers can take over"; no, capitalists are sometimes doing just enough real work ordinary people get genuinely confused what a worker is. this isn't just the case in the arts. it's easy for there to be a small restaurant or a small thrift store where the owner still makes a lot of actual day-to-day decisions that could sink or float the workplace itself, and where even lists of union demands across ten tiny thrift stores might not operate fast enough to save it. the union turns into a crude hammer or axe operating on a scalpel-level task — although to be perfectly clear the surgeon is blind. nobody has the ability to both do the task and look at the task at the same time. this has led to a lot of wrong interpretations of unions — that unions are a bunch of [[E:tent of freedom poles|freedom poles]] uniting specifically for freedom, that workers primarily gain the ability to do their job through more and more freedom and not because of any structure or guidance, that if a ring of producing-capitalists strikes it's a gain for workers, that some workers "just don't know what producing-capitalists go through",

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Workers and capitalists sometimes have the same interests / The proletariat and bourgeoisie occasionally have the same interests -> this better covers unusual edge cases like North Korea or China where there can really be a situation where workers and owners have to all stand together against outside countries trying to own their country and take away their right to have a national government, even if outside countries have turned the world into a forever cold war where it's not a thing where you can do it for a short while and then stop. people can also argue over whether workers and owners ever have the same interests just because they both have to organize a Liberal-republican law for Black rights or similar. I'm still not over a contemporary Marxist theorist I will not name saying "workers and owners are diametrically opposed" "you have to detach everyone from the bourgeoisie that run the Democratic Party" and then "we have to build a social-democratic movement, I organize with landlords". one of those statements is wrong. I think it's actually the first one. I think the general concept of creating a large-scale movement of some kind before you try to [[Term:filtration|filter]] it is right. but I think the statement that workers and owners are neatly opposed is wrong. you wouldn't be able to get every single bourgeois assembling-people organizer into your movement and build a "social-democratic party" if they all consciously knew it was against them and that all the workers ultimately just wanted to get rid of them. so the question becomes, is social-democracy nothing more than a useful lie? if it's something more than a useful lie, there have to be solid material reasons for the bourgeoisie to support a nationwide movement where they largely stand to lose something and take on precarity rather than to gain something.

I have no idea if it's true. but I am very tired of every anarchist and Western-Marxist trying to claim that television or billboards or social media platforms stand between people and taking action. I know that in some way that claim is very misleading. I think one reasonable hypothesis is that what actually happens is people are connected to the wrong people rather than the right people. simply being connected to reactionary relatives and living in a scarcity of jobs where there are no good places to move to and no workers to meet each day has a far greater effect than "phones" could ever have. in this sense you can argue that everybody normalizing breaking social bonds to be "free" or to "find success" tosses people into a world where they interact mostly with capitalism rather than any organic social connections and if their brain is functioning at all they will grow to hate it in less than a decade. the problem is that this only really manufactures theorists, not workers, because the kinds of people who get the most atomized aren't workers to begin with — by meta-Marxist definitions they're either petty bourgeoisie tearing into a multicapitalism which could theoretically one day lead a plural Marxism, or the Refuse class.

I guess one big factor is simply that one wolf has as many as 6 young, so you start with 7 mother wolves and you can end up with 42; a few leads to many of them. it really makes you think though, if you're writing an imaginary story akin to {{book|Warriors}} why would LGBT+ characters be a problem. once the pups are there you need somebody to raise those 6 pups. they won't really care who is there to protect them from being trampled or lead them out of a hunter area.

"tents of freedom poles" has been toxic to future movements for centuries, making them all focus on disregarding classes and building "friendship" and "intersubjectivity" as opposed to working out a [[E:Lattice model|Lattice model]] of how individuals and small groups can actually tell in real time who is their ally, enemy, or neutral and stack up to a coherent population that's capable of doing anything. I think that it's not purely the existence of the bourgeoisie and their effect on ideology that fools people. I think the sheer concept of tents of freedom poles taken on its own level is enough to do it. I think the sheer activity of telling people about the French Revolution and implying tents of freedom poles by itself can lead people to the wrong ideologies and away from the correct ones. this is because "tents of freedom poles" is a [[:Category:Bauplan ontologies|civilizational shape model]]. civilizational shape models exist below the level of abstract concepts, as if they were actual arrangements of classes. center-Liberals never supported the bourgeoisie just because they liked the bourgeoisie, and instead, propagating Existentialism is the new face of supporting the bourgeoisie. Existentialism is what people truly line up behind when they want to shut down the proletariat, not the bourgeoisie themselves, but it has the same effect. that's just it.

I think Marxism would eventually have been invented inside the Third World without there being any French Revolution. anarchists, Existentialists, and center-Liberals have a totally wrong view of this. they always talk as if the French Revolution led to later instances of Liberal-republicanism, or to anarchism, or to Western-Marxism — is any of this actually true?

Filaments are the lifeblood of capitalism. it's never actually about individuals. but here's the catch.

Marxists argue with each other as a substutite for having actual violent conflicts where Stalin's government kills 100,000 Trotskyites, which historically is what happens if they act. a lot of anarchist activity is almost totally secret from the nearly-surface stuff of forming groups and letting anyone know they exist to the actual secret operations. whatever little thing anarchism achieves it largely manages it because a lot of people don't know anarchism even exists and as they go around claiming nobody is an anarchist or a Communist and there is "only" common-sense center-Liberal anti-racism they act as useful idiots in favor of anarchism. then there's Gramscianism, where people hide inside institutions for decades hoping their mere presence pretending to be conservatives but not actually being them will make change. since around 1970 movements in general have turned into this weird intelligence game where the whole goal is to fool people like this video maker that there are no movements when there actually are.

Menshevism doesn't fix it if capitalists successfully deconstruct all the means of production and hoard everything, which there is almost nothing to stop them from doing. the worst part is this. capitalists hoard {{censor|shit}}. somebody builds structures for them to deconstruct and hoard. it isn't the proletariat, it's the Director types. Director types build {{censor|shit}}. they employ people to do the hard work and never to think. but they don't maintain it or own it, they just get together at fancy parties and go "isn't everything wonderful?! we're all friends friendship wonderful tent of freedom poles". they live in the moment and they don't care if anything totally breaks apart. so practically they always let society suddenly fracture into multiple violent societies, sometimes standing by and pretending to be neutral, sometimes joining a side and picking a big capitalist and simply slicing the country down the middle. to overcome all the bourgeoisie, practically speaking, workers have to be able to graph businesses together and predict which store sells to what to the point Directors aren't needed. they have to defeat anarchism, at least in [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|all its bourgeois forms that seem like 90% of it]], and the whole concept of a tent of freedom poles.

"a-culture-ism" appears to develop when anarchists are trying to find ways to break up material structures they consider hierarchical and then they realize that the structures are composed of groups of people bound together with toxic culture, so, applying the Idealist frameworks they don't like to abandon, they start declaring that the first step to forming an anarchist movement is to defeat "culture" and the ideas behind the ideas behind the ideas behind the prejudices behind the ideas in people's heads. it seems like this same concept leaches into Western Marxism just because everyone is actually anarchists or Existentialists before they become Marxists and they never quite figure out how to think entirely like Marxists and stop being anarchists.

China manages to hold back the billionaires with what is effectively a very similar structure to the United States, billionaires actually go to prison when they do something bad, but you need experts to run it which all amount to the petty bourgeoisie. so is China a dictatorship of the proletariat just because it has an intact party-nation of Marxist theorists? arguably, no, it is a Marxist party-nation but a party-nation isn't the same as a successful dictatorship of the proletariat, it's just the first step out of the utter suffering of Liberalism. Menshevism is not a bourgeois reform, literally forming China and giving it the power to violently suppress the bourgeoisie with weapons if truly necessary but it's nearly the same as the United States is the bourgeois reform, and the only reason we don't realize that is that we don't want to admit there are multiple bourgeoisies that utterly hate each other like inhuman carrion piles and so it's truly necessary for people to divide into plural areas of bourgeois control no matter what people want to think. the border of the wolf pack or lion pride is the dangerous part, not the high-ranking adults. that said. here is how I think the order goes: national independence; defeating Liberal-republicanism and creating party-nation; not creating capitalism; creating Bolshevism; dictatorship of the proletariat; age of multi-Bolshevism; hypothetical age of poly-Bolshevism. this is the order of discovering what theories are good theories, whether or not it's the actual order of history.

Trotskyism isn't secretly mainstream Marxism-Leninism, it's Trotskyism. anarchism isn't secretly Bolshevism, it's anarchism. and a Marxist analysis of anarchism is something very different than a Marxist analysis of Marxism pretending to be anarchism. I am a meta-Marxist. if I have to use Marxism to explain how to succeed at totally non-Marxist ideologies that never turn into Marxism then I will. but I won't lie to you that Western Maxism or anarchism "must" be effective just because everyone's doing them and an ideology that's popular "must" be a winning one. I will judge the effectiveness of ideologies based on history. currently it's looking pretty bad for anarchism and bizarrely good for Deng Xiaoping Thought. I have been wracking my brain as to why that latter trend exists, and [[E:The Cold War never ended|I think I half have an answer]]? but the answer only makes the outlook even worse for anarchism. anarchism is going to have to [[E:The Cold War never ended|molecularize]] or it will never win.

I am guessing disabled people would probably not prefer to define access this way. but it's hard to stop that hole from tearing open. some people rewrite programs because they are not practically "accessible" to all the people attempting to look at the code, to debug it and such, and thus they feel rewriting the program is more inclusive to all the human beings that would later look at it. this is all because calling code accessible or not accessible is a fallacy. it's always populations of people that are open or closed to people, and the existence of code or technology is totally incidental; code itself has no intentions on how it is designed. to overcome the fallacy you have to realize that the thing that performs accessibility is an institution. you have to basically deliberately create a really consistent group of people that will function As A Community Unit for it to be able to do accessibility. and when you do that, anarchists will show up accusing you of "centralization". anarchism — depending on which one it is of course — is this terrible contradiction. anarchists want to overcome all social oppressions and make everybody behave good. at the same time anarchists hate anything being consistent and cohesive enough that it could be a painted target for anyone to catch a law-breaking anarchist. this contradiction practically results in a bunch of disconnected anarchists with little information about each other who are unable to live up to the standards of anarchism and who perpetuate social oppressions, all because they are scared to have a civilization that has laws and can defend itself from other populations that think it shouldn't exist. this is the Free Software movement in a nutshell: it's anarchism hiding inside capitalism, and it has all the basic logical problems of anarchism.

the process of creating any civilization historically begins with training a bunch of highly specialized professor types who set up the civilization. after they do that, nobody else necessarily benefits from studying what they studied, but what they created is theoretically available for anyone to use and becomes cheaper. by conventional Liberal-republican wisdom, the same process should apply to everything, with anybody who goes to college being able to discover something new and snag an exclusive Careerist spot as a resident expert, or start a new business. of course, in real life it doesn't quite shake out that way. in real life, capitalism produces so fast thanks to its Third-World workers that culture fills up with available products and nobody even wants or needs any more innovations. people get gaslit that learning stuff will make them likable because people like talent and creativity and education and then they get gaslit again that there's no need for any more art or science if they aren't the next one-in-a-billion international corporation owner that made the stuff everybody around them will be actually using the next morning. so why then does everyone keep saying "college college college, go to college"? because it's ultimately a trick by the bourgeoisie to disguise capitalism. the longer everyone says "college college college", the slower people figure out that the economy has filled up into a very limited number of jobs where the key is not in being good at things but simply in claiming things first and staying in them as long as possible. this is easiest for someone with a huge bank account who does nothing but buy businesses or stocks. a finance capitalist can switch from industry to industry in a heartbeat without spending any money on training, and very easily forgets that all the college-educated people have to spend thousands of US dollars and take years and years to do what they can do in a day or a minute. the concept of education becomes outdated as education inevitably builds up societal structures in which people do not have to learn the things previous pioneers learned. this is good in that in theory jobs will come not to cost as much, although it can be bad in that those with the money and time to commit to education have no advantage over the person who is simply very obedient to the constructs previous educated people created and is willing to work for a low wage, even to the point of serious fault where they go to work for a Tory and fully accept the racist, misogynistic, ableist atmosphere. fifty able-bodied White men full of hatred and willing to work for any wage gain a particular amount of power to absolutely grind five college-educated progressives into the dust. even so, people will keep chanting "education education" like sending all the socially-linked Tories to get an arts degree and somehow bleeding it out of professors' pockets or something will magically fix everything. but in reality all those "education education" people are just falsely and confusedly thinking that they're at the level of elite pioneers who could have started the United States from scratch, they're temporarily embarassed colonizers. they get this wrong impression from the observation that Liberal-republicanism constantly imposes artificial destructive processes which arbitrarily grind up industry and start it over again, ostensibly so that capitalism is "fair" in that new people can enter it and [[E:stale rat bread|Zinovievize]] existing "industrial culture" whenever they get tired of it, but in reality, it's a ruse to make people think cultures are made of endless competition and churn when that can never be the definition of any culture. it's always been that cultures are made of invention, the codification of standards or structures, the falling of profit, and the enjoyment of abundance where applicable. this assumption is baked into the sheer existence of universities. the reason creating professors is valuable is that professors create wealth for society as a whole, not for individuals. even if universities create capitalists, the capitalists also create structure for society at a town- or local-state level rather than for themselves. "[[E:wealth brain|wealth brain]]" destroys humanity's ability to understand society, to understand what it is and how it develops. when you have wealth brain you believe that education is for earning personal wealth and society is nothing more than a bunch of shiny objects and paying, but if that were true, it would quickly become that individuals would destroy the social structures they are supposed to create and become both useless to society having contributed nothing, and incapable of earning wealth because they created no consistent means of production. funny enough that's kind of exactly what's happened. people are going to college thinking wealth wealth wealth (not that it's their fault when they're not allowed to think anything else) and they end up utterly unemployed as all the necessary businesses are full and incapable of creating a business. they're not creating unions because there aren't enough businesses per individual being born for them to work at and if they manage to find a job it's always more advantageous for them to move to either a "prestigious opportunity" or one of the "only" regions with jobs left than to stay and fight for the first one they got. with nothing to fight for it's easy for the bourgeoisie to shove the smallest spark of resistance totally out and make them scramble to create a second rival bourgeoisie just to live. simultaneously businesses periodically fail just because they have trouble lasting forever, taking all their workers down with them. each failure of a capitalist hurts workers and gives an opening to a swath of new petty bourgeoisie that's enough to cause trouble but not enough to provide real relief to the unemployed population. they grow a bit, they enable really gigantic marketplace-owners that will get to keep the money forever, some of them drop away, one gets big and the hole in capitalism plugs back up. a little later another medium-sized business fails and the cycle starts again, or maybe towns just fill up with a bunch of tiny businesses that are constantly opening up and dying and causing confusion for everybody.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">gender-neutral patriarchy -> the motif of a society liberating women from misogyny but then reverting to powerful individuals who control households regardless of whether they are women. really, really prevalent in the United States. where I've lived, and possibly also in Great Britain where J.K.

I feel like people's underlying biases when they talk about women's rights are directly creating things like having universities only consisting of non-political experts and getting science defunded, or statements that everyone should join up with center-Liberals that don't exist to create social-democratic programs when in reality that just creates a lot of dropouts from the Democrat "movement" and every existing program going away.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The United States abolished kings / United States people chose to abolish kings because having a king was a bad idea (mentioned in Dinesh D'Souza's book) -> "as you know, the United States doesn't have a king. it's worse than that. we reverted to a warring states period where different populations fight over the country and try to kill each other. but at least we created a republic." 
Richard Wolff said this once. but honestly, I think a great illustration is to open up <cite>Guardians of Ga'Hoole</cite> book 1. on one page there is a quote something like: "it's been a while since we've had a king." the book then proceeds to explain that owls have reverted from a kingdom to a warring states period.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">In the U.S., a tiny bit of economism is warranted -> this might be controversial. but from 30 years of experience living here, the people of the United States are often joined together only and solely by mathematics. no appeal to shared history, freedom, generosity, or empathy can actually join U.S. people together, although somehow the one thing that can join people together is economic imperatives like a corporation being there tomorrow and everyone having to go to the same corporation to receive a paycheck. people put up with their relatives almost solely because their relatives have money or able bodies while they don't actually like them or feel a bond to them. people join identity politics movements for selfish reasons of protecting themselves as much as for actually helping anyone else, graphed together by the promise of a bunch of people joined together winning rights and an elusive mathematics of graphs and people-blobs which might one day explain it. the whole concept of solidarity as some kind of moral or emotional connection or "the love of humanity" just doesn't really apply in the United States. talking as if employee types even have emotions left and aren't just hollow vessels of depression is almost itself an appeal to the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie have all sorts of time for marketing novels and talking about [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition|expression and emotion and Lived Experience]]. but as for any genuine workers that exist — for whatever five minutes they exist until being totally forced off business territories and being forced to start a new teeny precarious business — it's more useful to think of workers as devoid of emotion and being herded around by societal patterns and themselves to the things they "[[E:Anarchy is the most authoritarian thing there is|just have to do today]]" as if with cattle prods. the whole thing is held together with nothing but mathematics, there's no emotion in it. this leads me to feel like to fix it it's perfectly okay to appeal not to anything emotional but instead solely to new mathematics that people can recite as the thing they "just have to do today" equally as dispassionately.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Industrial work does not create wealth / Industrial work does not create wealth for individuals, it creates actively-flowing groups of people who are graphed together exchanging things with each other and who enjoy stability and surplus wealth for social programs only when they are strongly united -> at its basics, wealth is the possession of independent survival separate from all other members of society. peasant life generally possesses this unless somebody else claims the land from the peasants. industrial work does not create wealth in the same way, despite everyone's misleading metaphors about "the grasshopper and the ant". industrial work creates stuff: the material components of culture which do not necessarily have much value by themselves but are valuable precisely inasmuch as three corporations constantly producing them can sell them to each other. "stuff" is only meaningful as part of a structured graph arrangement of people, and ceases to be meaningful when the graph arrangements break and nobody will take it. simultaneously capitalists stupidly try to insist that graph arrangements breaking is normal, although to anyone with a brain that is the momentary absence of capitalism, not an actual process inside capitalism. saying that "market corrections" are part of capitalism is like saying that cats frequently dying of kidney failure is a useful and important part of cats; a bug in the system isn't a design. 
this question takes on a whole new dimension in light of anarchism. anarchists successfully understand that peasants had wealth more easily, but fail to understand the purpose of corporate products. the social purpose of corporate products is to make it easier to produce something useful without it having to be judged by the harsh immediate demands of survival — to make it possible to spend your time writing poetry or making watercolors of crows like a third of anarchists would love to do, instead of finding that because you're a woman and a mother dad said you had to watch the baby while he works with the cows. having to do work at the level of individual independence and survival has a lot of unintended consequences. independence and "wealth" make it hard to spend your time on children without accidentally resenting them or creating conflicts between the parents, while statistically at least half the population is going to have children. capitalism, at first, [[E:Capitalism dices countries into half a country per person|is just as bad about this]], but eventually makes it possible to chain together a bunch of corporations that are all in effect paying for each other's existence and have just enough productivity left over to provide inexpensive childcare. capitalism creates surplus wealth for a particular chunk of society at a time specifically because undirected graphs of people are all graphed together, vaguely like the way electrons are all graphed together across two atoms in a chemical bond. incidentally this benefit goes away when people allow Liberal-republicanism to [[E:multiple capitalisms in one country|divide people into two populations]] — the two populations don't graph together properly and the wealth doesn't get shared "across the bond" — although Deng Xiaoping Thought funny enough more or less fixes that, leaving China with an intact capitalism and in an objectively better stage of history than the United States. 
the big challenge for anarchists, or for Bolshevism, is to master graph economics. you can't even put a bunch of anarchists in a village and know the thing will hold together without knowing what the structures are and the inputs of every structure are in order to determine the other structures' outputs. industrial work does not create wealth. it creates graphs that are doing a verb. the republic is [[Term:republicking|republicking]], the town is towning, the village is villaging. this is the sense in which anarchism is indistinguishable from capitalism. Marxists say this accusation in a negative tone but it doesn't really have to be negative if anarchists simply didn't attack workers' states and stuck to peacefully creating tiny city-states that help workers' states on the off chance they're actually able to. the ideal scenario for anarchists is basically that you have a Soviet Union with 14 big republics and then you have like 300 teeny tiny city-states that are also part of the structure. I don't know how many, maybe it would only be like 20.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Industrial work creates hierarchies -> the problem with the concept is in the word "creates". if you stop at "industrial work ... hierarchies", then you've got it basically correct. when there is industrial work it is the case there are spatial hierarchies. but industrial work isn't the thing that creates them. industrial work is a response to them already being there, which attempts to solve them and make them less bad and more tractable. the end of that solving process looks like graphs that have been graphed together into the "shared electron" process of capitalism. 
anarchism is so... blockheaded. whenever you try to cover the things said in anarchism it comes out in such simple words I feel almost like I could explain why anarchism is false in toki pona. I would love to do that, just take one or two of these propositions and after it's written make a toki pona translation. the only real problem is I'm not "fluent", I don't have the standard usages and grammars down yet. but I do know in the mean time I can always make an en-x-pona page to later translate the toki pona from. I remember the first time I discovered [https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_English_Wikipedia simple english wikipedia] and not really thinking deeply about how many English learners there are I found it so funny. now even though I see "simple English" as a serious tool with broad application I still think it's fun. I still have a laugh at the notion of a complicated idea being "unrolled" into simple language to the point anyone should find it obvious. I hope someone else has as much fun with the en-x-pona pages as I will.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S">Avenarius was just probing social constructs / By asserting that the only way we can understand reality is through "constellations of perceptual elements", Avenarius and Mach were effectively trying to probe erroneous social constructs, prejudices, and incomplete science -> the most charitable reading of Idealism is that it is trying to give us the tools for understanding the difference between ontological models we assemble in our minds versus material reality. if you read it that way, then Idealism can be put to productive use to define what is good science; there are many cases where Idealism simply doesn't work but this is one of the only things it's good for.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">Science is discovered independent of cultures -> the question of whether science is a cultural construct is rather complicated. I feel like to answer it properly you have to separate out "the scientific method" from "an ontological model discovered through science which is now a field of study at a university". when you're talking about the second thing, you can absolutely argue that science is a social construct, specifically because each field of study contains assumptions or hastily accepted hypotheses and could always contain important errors. say that clinical testing is a field of study, but in practice the whole field of clinical testing has almost exclusively tested treatments on men. this would lead clinical testing to be a social construct which contains scientific errors and which would have to be updated through the scientific method into a better construct.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">A genuine science can be done in ancient Egypt / Any genuine science can be done in ancient Egypt / For any particular philosophical framework to be a field of science, it has to be doable for people in any period of history -> imagine there's an Egyptian priest, or people appointed by the pharaoh. for their time they have relatively good means to do anything, and yet for the purposes of this thought experiment they won't reject anything you say just because it isn't advantageous to them to know it; they will interpret every fact you can prove as supporting Egyptian religion or values. you have the floor to convince the pharaoh of the existence of a particular field of science. can you do it? I think using ancient Egypt is a good thought experiment because it doesn't run into problems of tribal populations a really long time ago simply not being able to get the apparatus to test things; the single, sole advantage of class society is that it has wealth. tribal populations today are very different because they can make the journey to industrial centers if they really want to, so the major issue that comes up today is the will or decision-making power of different populations to be able to do things on particular land areas or "impose forms of science". anyway it's less complex to do this with ancient empires or very large populations versus small tribal populations; if you want to do this with tribal populations you use today's indigenous populations rather than the ones that existed a long time ago.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">For historical materialism to be a science, it has to be doable for people in any period of history -> Newtonian physics is a science because the overall set of patterns of Newtonian physics could have been studied in any historical period given the right equipment and ingenuity to design tests. psychology is a science because despite many different models of psychological phenomena throughout the decades and slow refinement, the underlying phenomena are the same in any historical period. historical materialism has a unique challenge that the substrate of people underneath it changes each historical period, creating difficulties for applying the science the same way in all historical periods. in one period you have a wealthy pseudo-landlord doing physics. in another period you have a university Careerist type who is also privileged. in the future there may be more genuine workers in science — if the proletariat is restored at all, of course. a very long time ago you are looking basically at royal appointees and priests. but when the topic of science turns into historical materialism, you have to turn these different groups of people around to study themselves. and that could be challenging, simply to get people to comprehend the idea of a different group of people thinking about something in the future than the group they're in. try thinking about your own death and somebody else consciously observing the world every day in place of you. that always feels a little off; the human mind inherently has trouble comprehending anybody else being conscious instead of itself. I think the same thing is true for plural groups of people existing in the present. a group of White Southern Baptist Christians, no matter how nice they are, will have a little trouble imagining zapping their perception over to India where people in India are conscious instead of them, and vice versa the other direction. this in turn makes it hard to understand the concept of a whole other class subpopulation of people, who manages to exist in the very same country as you and yet isn't you and is consciously perceiving the world instead of you. to someone who has never experienced it, the whole concept of another class probably feels like one of those weird science fiction scenarios like [[E:It's easier to imagine impossible matter fractals than the end of capitalism|discovering your universe is only an atom in another universe and you never knew]]. even a group of workers in the 1930s United States would find it hard to predict the 2020s where the proletariat has been shoved off the area of the country and everyone has been turning into hostile warring factions of bourgeoisie. to be able to comprehend historical processes that might happen in each period you really have to [[E:meta-Marxism|see outside yourself]] and see all the groups of people that exist, all the classes, all the factions consisting of plural [[Term:Social-Philosophical System|class-subpopulations each with a local ideology inside]]. but, if you can do that you're set. you're ready, in any historical period, to comprehend the possible futures that could happen.

I know it's very relatable to me to have had to learn Japanese to have the only experience I could possibly have of two separate, different groups of people interacting in a benign way instead of necessarily pounded through this particular strainer of racism. it's like if you even watch an anime dub it will expose you to people interpreting the show or the choices of the show writers in xenophobic ways, while only when you watch a show un-dubbed (or read any number of book translations that happen not to have this problem) do you simply experience the show as someone in its origin country would experience it.

I would like to know. when I read Marxist history texts I feel like I learned a lot more about it than I knew before. but there are always times when I freak out about the concept that the separation between populations of people as material objects is always stronger than anyone's ability to reason or intuit about what other populations are feeling and any attempt to have empathy or think about the problems of other groups of people could potentially offend someone, because you didn't predict the thing that was literally actually in their mind which was the only tone in which it was acceptable to speak about them at all. it makes me afraid regarding the potential for diplomacy between groups of people, how or whether it is even possible in a world where anyone is like this.

on why this isn't sound: people like predictability. people tend to take unpredictability as indistinguishable from rudeness, hostility, or malice — because, to be fair, a lot of actual malice [[E:Vegeta effect|pops up totally unpredictably]]. when big eruptions of violence happen, people are very happy when they stop. when small incidents of violence happen, people can become terrified just because they never know when it stops, and they will look for the nearest pattern they can see to try to find a causal mechanism that can stop it. this means some people will look at "termite violence", see a recurring pattern of "Black people", and start judging all Black people or even retaliating at all Black people with their own "termite violence" just to stop a presumed pattern of "toxic Black culture".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Waiting for people to die is hatred / Waiting for people to die is as bad as hatred -> there is this really huge contradiction in the way everyone defines prejudices in the United States. normal people believe that every bad thing comes from prejudices. it's bad to be prejudiced. but for some reason it's okay to take the group of everyone who has prejudices and hate it. it's even okay to say things like "when the boomers die out", although logically that should be a prejudiced statement because you don't want them to exist or physically live and you want to squash their inner experience and everything they think and feel. isn't that statement just the act of passively killing them very slowly? I think the bible verse about hatred is truer backward: people dying is the same as hatred, people dying is as bad as hatred. if you frame it that way it's easier to conceptualize what the definition of hatred should actually be. in my mind hatred is when Trotsky exists but you don't like anything about him and you don't want him to exist, and you won't go to the active effort to make it possible for Trotsky to coexist with all the followers of Stalin, actually in real life, actually taking into account the goals and desires of both groups of people and realizing both of them instead of making a compromise that crudely squashes one of them to have the other, like, you have to build a world which realizes Trotskyism to some extent that Trotskyists eventually agree with even though it is limited by the rules of reality, instead of a world which acts to prevent Trotskyism, to the point that Trotskyism and mainstream Marxism-Leninism both exist and they both acknowledge each other as part of each other even though they began with different content and are not the same entity and have to actively get to know a new entity in order to predict and merge with that entity. an odd metaphor when applied to anything else, but it really illustrates what the problem with anything else is: if you want Protestants and Catholics to coexist or White Southern Baptist Christians and Black people to coexist, etc, you need to understand that each countable group of people realizes differently and builds different things and it's the Social-Philosophical-Material content that is realized out of each group of people that brings culture clashes. culture clashes don't come from abstract ideas and attitudes, they come from people realizing clashing material behaviors like Black people are saying slang words like "cook" or whatever it might be and White people actually hate that realized behavior because they prefer another behavior for them to do and everyone to do. a countable group of disabled people realizes the behavior of building ramps and a countable group of able-bodied people wants to realize a different behavior that is most natural in their group. so to get people to stop culture-clashing you actually have to get people to agree on the particular, not the abstract, to actually do and like specific realized behaviors which are not ideas at all but are acts of existing and being in a certain way. if it were true that hatred was an idea, then everyone around the world would immediately love neopronouns and unnecessarily-specific gender labels just because they don't want to be hateful, but that isn't how things work. acceptance and tolerance is always creepily conditioned on how well you can twist and contort normal people to pretend to not be normal and enjoy it as an active way of existing and being and making every daily decision and directing the whole of their Free Will and identity assuming that either of those exist toward the specific end of not being themselves as they were yesterday and being somebody new. it genuinely doesn't make sense to comprehend tolerance through individual freedom, because to truly tolerate someone not just where you're hiding your hatred but at the level where you could become friends is to overwrite and destroy individual identity and freedom, and the only question is whether this is a good thing. I think there's a decent argument to be made that it is, but it is nothing like [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and the way that everybody ever tries to comprehend freedom and The Subject. this is a new philosophy I have no name for. I already named entropicism. maybe I should name this one too. this is, uh... the ego-death philosophy of tolerance and friendship, I don't know how to make that snappy. this is the philosophy where instead of Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash being friends and gelling into a team because they're unique different competing individuals who each separately want freedom, Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash are friends because they agree to become each other in part if never in whole and abandon the parts of them that are harmful to them being friends. under this paradigm, [[E:Starlight Glimmer|Starlight Glimmer]] creates her [[E:Pol Pot|Pol Pot]] village and it's up to the Ponies in it to either become the new culture in part as they become part of the new culture, or leave, and there's nothing heroic about them leaving as individuals versus staying as a group; the village does not have to exist but if it does the success of the village depends on them working together and not being too selfish to be part of society. I wonder how different that show would be if it was written under that ethos. all those weird repetitive "be yourself" plots in the last season would probably be different and maybe even better written. like just imagine if there was an episode where a Pony was getting mocked and bullied in Ponyville or one of the main locations but it was because they were too much of a free individual to stay in Totally Not Eastern Europe; their own greedy individuality [[E:The Soviet diaspora was a second Trail of Tears|left them with nothing and turned them into a minority somewhere else]] constantly getting picked on by others.

I think it's fairly possible to argue this. definitely in fake cases like Bolshevism supposedly having a dictator it applies, but it also applies in real cases like {{Term:Wasp Swarm}}s and Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis, and Protestants joining up with a Protestant king to squash Catholics. it even applies to the fake case of anarchists and Existentialists turning their backs on Trotsky claiming Trotskyists are a collective dictator that is trying to make them conform to Trotskyism. this seems like a solid model of what causes human beings to label things "dictator" or try to define the concept of a [[E:generalized dictator|generalized dictator]].

I think there's a fundamental role played by separate populations such as countries and towns which wasn't well captured by Marx. and I think this is exemplified really clearly and simply by the emergence of early Trotskyism. you look at Trotsky and Zinoviev and their at-most-five-or-so Marxist theorists that started the conspiracy. they just wanted something to belong to, but the Soviet Union didn't really want them, and subtly pushed them out. (they think it wasn't subtle and was so blatant they could outline it like a conspiracy, but that's simply not historically accurate. if anything there was just an undesigned motion of the whole system of people, the central party and ministries and "bureaucrats" and so forth, slowly nudging them out as they didn't fit in and didn't understand it.) Trotsky's accounts of the Russian revolution are, a bit amusingly, often personal stories centered on him, but there is something specific that sifts out of that. the notion that some people are Marxist theorists but the only thing that strongly connects them to anything is a shared bond to a countable culture. you toss Trotsky out of this utterly miraculous bond made of little more than friendship that should never have been able to happen from the point of view of basic Marxist theory and he's going to be pretty mad. the act of tossing out theorists can cause a population to start slowly dividing as if it were some kind of biological cell sorting all the chromosomes into one side and the other side. I think there was a little bit of intellectual dishonesty in the Soviet Union where they did not want to acknowledge the possibility that even if the country would not naturally divide by regenerating the bourgeoisie your local theorists are the glue holding the country together and the whole thing could crack into multiple countries starting from the top. now, it's not like Trotsky was the keystone and if you get rid of him the whole thing comes crumbling down, but it is like the structure could break anywhere but because Trotsky is one of the weakest links ready to snap it all started there. you listen to these dumb capitalist-aligned sources talk about the Soviet Union and they say things like, the ministries and local party-nations were so bloated, having a level of state businesses is too much government, I couldn't stand having soviets in my town!! and basically none of that truly makes any sense. but when you take a perspective more from inside the country you see there were weaknesses most people don't really talk about. countries themselves are fragile in their own way; sometimes it's the simple notion we can make 300 million [[E:Subjects eat and occupy space|eating space-occupying organisms]] coexist instead of fight each other that's arrogant. and so Liberal-republicans will go thinking that sending 200 hostile representatives to compete against each other won't go badly and won't eventually devolve into blood feuds between sections of Alabama. party-nations are a lot less bad, being made on the basis of cooperation to start with. but sometimes there can still be cracks in them that threaten to tear an otherwise united population apart. there hasn't been enough thought in Marxism about the concept that every population is a material object, just as much as a block of ice is a unique material object and it would be a different collection of material objects if you broke it in two. there's been this consistent motif throughout what seems like all Marxism that for any given collection of people the only thing dividing the proletariat is it being stuck under the bourgeoisie and the simple need for everyone to get out of there will unite everyone permanently. but I honestly doubt it's that simple. how can it be that Trotskyists believe this, and early Marxists believe this, and Stalin believes this, but Trotsky and Stalin can get into a fight about how to free everybody around the world and unify everybody around the world? that shouldn't be possible. unless the content of what they are each trying to do is different even when Trotskyists do become Leninists, or there is something fundamental about two groups currently being separate objects that makes them compete and fight until they are literally one object that physically cannot fight itself any more. the latter one scares me a bit so I tend to focus on the first one hoping that one could be true. the notion that we only need to fix the content of our Marxisms and make them interlock together from the inside is a nice idea. I'm not absolutely certain it's true or the most important thing but it does give me a starting point that's not depressing.

I think this gets marked false for the wrong reasons. I think what really happens is economics is based on scarce gold bars or scarce production-acts while the number of houses is separate and irrelevant to what scarcity even practically is and has been. products aren't even scarce, partly because people will swap out non-fungible things for each other in a way that is hard to measure. people will use old things. people will use one thing for the other thing. in the early United States people could just claim land and it wasn't scarce yet. even now, the United States has a great land area. so scarcity of land was created by giving plots of land "brains" and letting them say no. The Subject caused land to be available exactly when it wants to form a graph connection. suddenly it started to become that every product within supply chains was synonymous with arrangements of people and the availability of people-graphs — with these diminishing pyramids of how much choice people actually have in being part of a people-graph. that's the really dumb thing about the cybernetics research group — if capitalism were actually about "time" or decision-making, then you wouldn't be able to stop it because it would have taken up all your Free Will and decision-making ability before you could even think about stopping it and build a cybernetics research group. Free Will and the ability to affect history are incidental to capitalism, which is why people can resist it no matter how much it takes away people's "time" and "control".

(I believe this is because inside it all people are actually participating in and regenerating [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and getting Liberalism as an emergent effect.)

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">If attacking religion is bad, then attacking people's faith in Donald Trump is also bad -> what becomes logically true if you strictly hold that it is wrong to tell people religion is not materially true. it's bad to tell people that religion is not accurate to reality because that's always, inevitably a microaggression against countable cultures, and microaggressions are unthinkable? okay, let's roll with that. sociologically, people's fascination with political candidates serves a very similar role to religion, grouping them into countable cultures and giving them something to hope for by giving them other people to support them and someone to lead them as a group. it's the sheer act of putting people into a group which has the material power to fight and crush other groups that gives people hope; said another way, any act of hiding in a group to gain hope is an act of [[Term:magic ritual|magic ritual]]. it can be argued that magic ritual is sacred in the sense that anyone who does not respect it is simply bashing countable cultures and refusing to be friends with them and understand their point of view. therefore, when people band together behind Donald Trump to protect them from progressives, listen to Fox News, and get together to push demographics out of everywhere and out of the United States, all of that must be understood as an indispensable cultural tradition. this statement is contradictory, of course. if all religions and spiritualities are indispensable cultural traditions, but one of them is built on oppressing the others, but it's still an indispensable cultural tradition in practice, then allowing religion naturally leads to religion itself forcefully extincting religion and magic ritual — just because it is religion. tolerance and "moderation" are not a substitute for historical materialism and the material study of ongoing interaction between populations, and really never have been.

I wish the United States would drop the concept that "systemic" problems are made of ideas and attitudes when that is not at all what "system" usually means, and what it almost always suggests is an arrangement of material moving parts which is distinguishable from other arrangements of moving parts. if all "systems" are just clouds of individuals they aren't distinct from each other as systems and you can't change them. well, unless you literally forcibly change ethnicities and demographics themselves, given that clouds of individuals are equivalent to countable cultures.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S">gunning down kulaks with machine guns / kulaks — what are you going to do with them? (censored label) -> the anticommunists said it first, not me. {{YouTube|FuUZEO7nZnw}} 
I think the question to ask here on motifs like these is this. if you don't arrest the kulaks and put them in Gulag or whatever happens to them, and you insist on tent of freedom poles, what hypothetically happens? assume that whatever they did was relatively bad. they did something at least as morally questionable as casually posting on twitter that "when I say 13% of the population commits 50% of the crimes they all get so fired up but they know they're wrong and pathetic". on rare occasion there are recorded historical incidents where kulak types would shoot well-liked public officials if they had the opportunity. they're your "January-6ers". they're bad news. so what are you going to do with those? they're not going to listen to anything you say just because they strive to be nice. if they could retreat to their peasant life and survive but watch 90% of society die, which in the kulaks' case they can, there's a nonzero chance they'd be the kind of person to just take that option, which we have decent reason to believe looks closer to 50% than 1%. kulaks aren't the ones dutifully paying taxes to help people exist. so what are you going to do with them? 
the typical answer you see is "community". "community, community, community", as if culture and community have the power to solve everything. but let's say that actually worked. everyone bombards the kulaks with good values. they don't behave. they don't want to contribute. they act like people trying to integrate them into a community is uncalled for. people ramp up efforts to saturate everyone with Community. when the kulaks don't participate everyone just starts utterly boycotting them and going "you can't buy products from that region, that's where the kulaks live and they don't like Community, you have to buy from these good regions". they effectively isolate all the kulaks into an island and turn them into their own tiny nation that is being embargoed and starved of anything they can't create themselves. this only exacerbates tensions between the two groups of people. if people recognized as being from the kulak region go into one of the progressive cities they're going to be treated with utter prejudice. if any of the progressive regions go through a really hard time and we assume the Soviet population is anarchist instead of Communist, some people are just going to attack the kulaks and steal their stuff because they feel like that's the justified thing to do to people that have spat in their face and never helped them. the whole thing would start morphing into a warring states period or a blood feud really really quickly. you're going to be killing them or firing guns at them one day just because you belong to two incompatible populations that don't want to be part of one Community while anarchists are busy enforcing a wrong model that Community is universal and automatic. if you really want to not kill the kulaks then it's a very bad idea to be an anarchist or a psychoanalyst, no matter who you are, even right this second. you have a far greater chance of an outcome where they keep their lives if you allow Bolshevism and you allow a central government to enforce laws on every population rather than making everything about the social relationships between individuals or populations, which can turn very abusive.

I'm not totally positive on that. but after seeing people on a toki pona related forum literally hyper-correct "pre-industrial societies in general" to "postcolonial societies" it sure is hard not to think that in practice "postcolonial" is just a synonym or euphemism for anarchism.

[https://www.protevi.com/john/SEDAAG.pdf] I'll say it out loud: two people is not a hierarchy. in the medieval sense, a hierarchy covers a whole kingdom, or a significantly large local state likely not bigger than Italy. words are whatever, but that's the definition of why hierarchies are actually important to anything. because they're big. the concept of hierarchy is not relevant to the study of historical revolutions unless you have a concept of hierarchy which refers to large structures instead of specifically to relationships. anyway. the major fallacy here is thinking that forming a population-society will not cause new "hierarchies", when in reality it could, simply as a requirement of realizing itself into a viable structure. it could be that you have to form things the anarchists think are "hierarchies" to get a large group of people free from something larger than that. to not admit that is basically to commit Trotsky's world population fallacy and erase the existence of countable cultures and ethnicity and language and religion and racism. the differences populations raise between themselves are connected to the existence of populations as separate interacting objects, which creates borders, which creates internal structure and Archons. this is why you need to conceptualize freedom as a new form of internal structure (new subpopulation, movement, Social-Philosophical System) within the same populational unit or units.

I make fun of Trotskyism and anarchism at times because sometimes they really have no idea what they're even saying. but at the core of it you have this very sympathetic problem of the book-intelligent Trotsky figure who should be good for something and is thrown out of his society because this particular crust of really elite representatives who are good at what they do and better at things than anyone else totally invalidates the guy as having any place in the country and leaves him not able to articulate what the problem with anything even is beyond "I think I am mad at The Bureaucrats". and I'm tired of that too. on one hand people need to not have entirely stupid interpretations of Marxism, but on the other, if they would only listen, I don't really want people thrown out like that.

The State forms in plurality as populations dividing into plurality differentiate into tribes or nations. if anarchists can't explain why a country such as Ukraine would form a nation-state separate from Russia, or North Korea or East Germany would form a nation-state separate from the major axes of Liberal-republican countries, they are not ready to tell anyone else about The State.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Wars are hierarchical -> I think there's a pretty good argument for this given any definition of what a hierarchy is. given the medieval definition of a layout of people which is conflated with owning individuals of particular classes, a war easily turns into a Napoleonist phenomenon with one "core" population-government stomping over the top of the other and trying to extract debts or treaties. given the crude definition of "hierarchy" (prejudice) used by anarchists, a war is the act of leaping one State over another population to enforce a particular way of being, which is to say one population is more important than another. this is the fundamental contradiction that comes up whenever an anarchism tries to build itself entirely out of secret operations. that turns the whole thing into a hierarchical activity putting one Social-Philosophical System over another Social-Philosophical System. this wouldn't be a problem if the SPS in question wasn't an anarchism, and was a Marxism or something. Che can try to make the case that a Marxist war on another country that only takes out the owners is justified, because he's not basing his entire theory on "hierarchy" and whether hierarchy is bad, he is basing the justification for wielding power on how important it is to realize a proletarian civilization. all Marxisms know on some level that they are an incomplete group of people competing against the rest of the world, and the concept of hierarchy isn't good for describing an all-directional conflict, but anarchisms somehow don't know that.

this is the value of modeling the Trotskyite conspiracy as its own tiny emerging country. you finally have a model which can sort out all the {{censor|bullshit}} associated with anarchism and finally get a Materialist theory of how to understand the creation or development of anarchism (or its particular variety of secret operations).

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Civilians are a cultural fabrication / Civilians are a social construct -> I think this is the major fallacy the deep end of anarchism believes. it's obvious to Marxists that there exists such a thing as civilians, and maybe even that the existence of civilians creates the boundaries between different countable Cultures and different parallel national histories. but it doesn't seem like anarchists find that obvious. they seem to easily devolve into a whole population of soldiers or FBI agents with no civilians out of some weird tendency to assume that anyone who is a civilian is being programmed not to resist The State — as if there is just one State and not one separate State for every population including some political parties or ethnicities inside national populations. newsflash, deep-end anarchists: you are The State. you've transformed your whole population into The State. the only question remaining is whether that's categorically bad, which admittedly is an open question.

Existentialist-Structuralists and the bourgeoisie, maybe justifiably if Trotskyists knew anything. mainstream Marxist-Leninists are afraid of Trotskyists because they think there will be another secret operation to explode workers' states that basically dumps a cascade of racism on Third World countries for no reason. anarchists are afraid of Trotskyists because if they know anything they will build Hierarchy and The Bureaucracy (ironically). I think the history of secret operations as they have already happened shows that anarchism really isn't what anarchists think it is. no matter how nice or how violent anarchism is, it's always the formation of a new countable Culture, which is localized to not all the world's people and has to have a border because it has new internal content. you can theoretically tear open a revolution on any basis, not worrying about who is and isn't the proletariat, but if you do that you absolutely must know what its internal content is. you have to have rudimentary knowledge of the structure of the new society in order to stabilize the new forming entity which inevitably won't contain all the world's people and will inevitably have a border.

I do know it's not fascism, as that would have to be at least a little more premeditated and specific. I think this is just some weird phenomenon of societal mitosis where regardless of where classes are at populations simply go insane and rip themselves in two. they think they're achieving something by "doing something" and carrying out attacks, but they're actually going precisely nowhere. the crisis that populations go through is that people stop being able to expand into and over each other even though everyone is expanding, and the easiest, crudest way to resolve it is to just take the population and rip it anywhere so there is one more hard border between all the expansion, or at least so that there is no more expectation that if the new populations expand over each other there won't be war. it's like one of the best results of these "stress fractures" would be East Germany, which is what happens when the proletarian subpopulation or lowest-ranked people all end up on one side of the rift and the high-ranked people end up on the other. this + ??? = East Germany is indistinguishable from an anarchism

I think one potential problem with this is it threatens to label Deng Xiaoping Thought a named Anarchism; in practice it tends to run on things like regulating capitalism by finding specific bad actors and bringing down penalties on them while leaving everyone else "free" of state intervention to do capitalism. that doesn't feel like a correct categorization. I think it's fair to claim that anarchism doesn't truly exclude a State from forming in real life, and real-life Anarchisms probably will have States, but even so I don't think a huge party-nation with a parliament building sounds like an Anarchism. I definitely don't know enough anarchist theory to say why. all I know is from the angle of Marxism if you have chunk competition and elite winners of Careerism or investing who take charge of particular chunks, practically speaking those should be the Archons, and anything which is purposefully leaving Archons around materially couldn't construct a logically-coherent realizable named Anarchism as a theory, so it shouldn't make sense to call it anarchism right now.

I think that's a really difficult question. but the one thing I know is Epic-of-Gilgamesh type stories are a really bad way to go about it. if Sun Wukong wants to preserve his population... isn't that what every population wants? doesn't every single population not want to be subject to genocide? so, to cast the concept of preserving a population through the lens of an individual king wanting to stay in power just seems totally wrong. existence is not a king, but more like the republic itself. it doesn't make sense to characterize existence as a form of power that needs to be limited as much as something you want to take the locus of power out of and understand as a bunch of connected moving parts.

I mean, it's true that the concept of individual effort being connected to the ability of individuals or towns to live is bogus. there are many kinds of effort that are simply wasted, and where "laziness" would have been just as good. primitive Existentialism sucks. but the real problem with people "being lazy" is that towns need a balance of particular things and individuals need a particular amount of connection to other people that recognize them as useful (income) to raise their children. it doesn't seem like the streamers who are arguing that YouTube channels are productive have thought through what would would happen if all the people doing important basic things in other towns turned out to be reactionaries and disconnected from them. so, the only kind of laziness that exists is people being lazy about forming the correct social graphs that are totally resistant to reactionaries. but almost everyone has it.

edit: there's a second way of looking at this, which is a bit simpler. The Subject is a living animal. living animals reproduce at some steady rate indefinitely without regard for the consequences, by nature of being organic life. put together The Subject in a ring of people, a tent of freedom poles, and they will all help each other reproduce indefinitely without regard for the consequences. Community Is A Cancer. 
are there ways Existentialists and anarchists can try to refute this? of course. one of them is to say that war is good and Europe is thriving because World War I happened but it ended — the United States isn't thriving because no other empire was there to challenge it on the same level, so it stomped the other populations and wilfully started fighting itself. if you think this is an atrocious state of affairs, that's fair, but it does line up with the history of civilizations over the past century where a ton of conflicts have been between giant global powers over the top of buffer states, notably Poland and East Germany. "Communities" can't halt their own expansion with just Community.

I kept thinking, the protagonist speaks like no actual human being and the characters don't talk about anything as if they were experiencing it as much as if everything was a bunch of floating propositions. but then I saw the game get polished from its earlier drafts to where it was a little more convincing. so maybe none of this is bad writing. maybe the game is planning some crazy twist where the things all the characters were saying at first weren't meant to be believable, and were all misdirects. maybe it's here to blow our minds by first setting up a strange, surreal, not-quite-believable setting of dragon capitalism and then the actual point is to shatter those expectations and show that genuinely none of it made any sense and here's the way dragons are supposed to live instead. the funny thing? if that was the point I'd probably like the story. you didn't portray civilizations as utopian, but you did metatransitional realism instead of just [[redlink - Wings of Fire|assuming]] dragon tribes are made of culture and Free Will. even if the depicted transition is effectively an Anarchism that is an achievement.

I think this proposition is very illuminating when it comes to describing a correct Marxism and the way correct Marxisms emerge in the processes of history. like, try to explain schizoanalysis to a child. so, Timmy, the reason people don't unify into a single country is stereotypes, but when people break out of stereotypes, they have to join together around a specific required culture anyway, which is not stereotypes, and doesn't mean the bigger country assimilating people into it is okay, because the bigger country is based on Liberalism, which is supposed to be anarchism but isn't, because the greedy expansion people invented big business and turned everyone into wage slaves, but people turning away from all billionaires isn't stereotypes because they all believe the same Ideals so that means they chose to be that way. no, Timmy, Ideals aren't culture.

I wish academics would like, speak in logically-coherent sentences. it doesn't matter what words you use but please use them to convey concepts that make any logical sense and are at all comprehensible. 
like let's break this statement down. what is essentialism? it's enforcing particular mandatory characteristics on something that are claimed to be in it from the dawn of time. what's strategic essentialism? it's creating people who must unite around a specific definition of what they are. now, how can that be anti-essentialist? whether it's anti-essentialist has nothing to do with whether it's good or bad, it can be good either way. why argue that it's anti-essentialist? what does that get anyone? 
this is the shovel dream of Existentialism being a method of physically organizing individuals into identity groups. Existentialism is partly a theory that people can only be arranged by whether arbitrary tribes of people like each other and want to be friends or want to shatter apart and fight each other at which point you can't keep them together — very bad theory for solving racism, as it horribly contradicts itself when it comes time to force racists to be friends with Black people that they utterly hate and want Freedom from. this causes people to think of everything in terms of prejudice and essentializing people into stereotypes, and to make up weird statements like grouping people into a movement being a way to fight against The Stereotypers, therefore it's "anti-essentialist", even though it's rather literally not. it's as essentialist as Stalin saying Georgians have to do specific plans as Georgia and sending it to the several people making up Stalin's government to be stamped. which is forbidden as evil Totalization because Communists are The Stereotypers against The Nice People in the United States who are bourgeoisie. please, Existentialists, please be intellectually honest for once. it's exhausting to have to solve everything you say like a math problem.

I saw this claim in <cite>Existential Physics</cite> that you couldn't simulate a human mind without creating a human mind, and by extension you couldn't duplicate a human mind anywhere else without creating a second individual. the thing nobody realizes is that this is also true of a coffee machine. the most accurate model of how a coffee machine functions would be a coffee machine, in the sense the most accurate model of an Agumon would be a living creature. but you cannot shift a simulated coffee machine into reality without manually duplicating the coffee machine, any more than you can the Agumon. what this means is there is actual physical stuff in the universe between information. you can call every arrangement of things information but that information is always made of stuff. the crux of general relativity is that things are made of stuff. that's why everything can be a reference frame. because there are objects, and all the interesting stuff can only be seen while standing on them. some of the objects are really small and constantly re-divide themselves, because they're hardly big enough to even hold together, and that's okay, because we still see the interactions they create clearly enough that we can stand on them and call them objects. then more interactions and information happen between atoms, and so forth.

entanglement is one of the only exceptions, but entanglement is just basically what happens when you try to measure the color that each of the quarks is pointing. they are definitely pointing one of the three colors, but the color force is going so fast you never know which quark has which one of them. the outside observation and inside state are wildly out of sync. the only thing you know is the direction of each quark depends on the other two.

"Filament of people conquer space and control it" is one of the only things that's worth anything. it solves great abuses, after also having created them. how different are collections of workers serving built-up Audiences from collections of lab cats? how do we know when a protest is meaningful versus when people are just chunk-competing over an area meaninglessly and different people controlling it won't actually make anything change?

Liberal-republicans and Existentialists will never actually care if what they say promotes Toryism or fascism — to them that's a fact of life. but they'll absolutely flip their lid if what they say promotes Communism. if you ever tell them this I bet they'll backpedal like hell and try to come up with reasons that Communist parties are obligated to wait for a disclosure of meaning even though nobody else is. and whatever they say at that point is going to be immensely revealing about the actual definition and principles of their particular ideology.

I don't fully know yet how that fixes racism, but I've got a fairly good idea how that unites Stalin and Trotsky, or Existentialism and Marxism. there's no huge distinction between sociophilosophy and culture that makes one not the other, so there probably is a way.

I don't know whether I feel positively or negatively about it. I think it is true that ontologies can always make errors, and we need the ability to pick incorrect ontologies apart to properly investigate the world and learn what is accurate in a scientific sense. but I have never really liked the notion that signs are an inherent form of power. it takes some unpacking. I have argued that Lacanian discipline is bogus because people can oppressively teach each other the wrong things. but is that all because of signs, rather than people? I'm not sure I'd say that. my thoughts right now are, the video I watched said that letting signs be is allowing metaphysical divisions of reality into arbitrary elements. which I half agree with. but then it said that the notion of breaking up sign monopolies is defeating metaphysics. and I feel like there's an error there. whenever we try to think that power is a deliberate thing somebody grabs and choppify things or push individuals back to stop power grabs and push the world into "balance", I feel like that's the moment we truly construct metaphysics. metaphysics lies not in the construction of specific categories but in the sheer false idea the world can be in perfect balance when it is always growing and changing. modern metaphysics is an empty vessel. a perfectly-balanced wheel of constantly-changing empty vessels that can grow and change and deconstruct themselves but are always in conflict, always hating each other, always trying to smash each other to break each other's power and then accusing each other of being the real power-grabbers. that's what metaphysics is now, not the content.

I never see people consciously listing out all the internal real-world signifiers that they think utopia actually means. the... bisimilarands? the analogy targets? the Z Items to the S Items, anyway. one possible "bisimilarand" is addiction. one is imperialism, as shown in the Winter King episode: a population that oppresses another has a much easier time. one is national independence: it is easy to accuse postcolonial Anarchists of "utopia", but they really just want some kind of independent population. all of these "bisimilarands" are very different, and which one you think of is based on your model of society, your social-political-economic ideology. the problem happens when people assume a particular pathway of signifier-bisimilarand-mechanics simply is what something is across fiction and mythology and real life. in one sense, fiction is how we all share and agree on misinformation without realizing that's what we're doing. and this is really popular for Existentialists to do. to assume that particular works of fiction are portraying such things as The Subject exactly the way they work in real life, when necessarily they all come from generalizations and assumptions. fiction argues about "unending happiness". but such a thing is complete nonsense. like, so nonsensical that even speaking of it hypothetically is hard because you have to suspend several things about reality and effectively make up fake prejudices about which real-world things you don't believe in. so what is fiction really arguing about if the thing it's arguing about doesn't exist? it's arguing about prejudices and which sets of prejudices people think are the better prejudices when literally speaking all of them are wrong.

I think by any reasonable definition, every single time Liberalism or capitalism makes people chop off part of themselves and fit into it is the same as symbolic castration. I think he is complaining about his own system. which is kind of funny — Žižek is a Zinovievist Trotskyite, while one of Trotsky's biggest problems was projecting onto Stalin the things that Trotsky does, effectively making "Leninism" into this weird never-ending cycle of deciding you don't like Leninism and exploding it to create Leninism that somebody else inside it then explodes again.

god do traditional-style philosophers ever read what they wrote and compare it to their actual experiences over the past week?? has Rothenberg ever thought about the fact that people have credit scores. has she thought about the fact that people have to make use of facts and patterns and find correct answers to correctly "bet" on the stock market. has she realized that if it were impossible to predict the next 4 years of historical events and make correct predictions then voting wouldn't make any sense? now that one is forgivable because a post-structuralist philosopher can try to come up with some scheme for how it's supposedly possible to defect from a candidate and pick another one even after you already voted. but I don't see how you can get out of anything else. you have to predict thousands of people to get videos seen in the YouTube algorithm. you have to predict tens to thousands of people to even be able to write an article in a human language because otherwise you'll say the wrong words that people will find confusing or offensive.

(I think I already know what the Existentialists will say. they'll try to claim I'm turning this into a case of "Rudolph was useful". but it's not me doing it. it's the fact people are physical and there are real solutions to real material problems below the level of "discovering better culture". I also know why people make this error. they can't see that any nice group of friends is just a graph and any case of "cultural exchange" is just making the graph bigger. sometimes bigger graphs become easier to operate without becoming more efficient, but they also become more capable of oppressing anybody who actually believes in improving the structure of the graphs. really unfortunate when it comes to worldwide shipping and climate change.)

I find the idea really stupid to be honest, but almost every single theory within "The US Left" since the 1990s seems to invent this concept as one of its core principles. Existentialism is in general a group of theories that ignores democracy per se and by going on and on about Free Will and The Subject tries to find the best way to invent democulture. queer theory is infamous in Tory settlements for constantly attributing the "institutional power" of homophobia and transphobia to the absence of democulture in "institutions".

"relativistic" in the sense of the universe having no center and all events having to travel at or below the speed of light in space and time to hit other objects; an object in motion not affected by another object keeps independently flying along "relativistically". RDem theories seem like trouble because they seem to bake in war and authoritarian attacks over the top of other populations after leaving no physical method to preemptively influence decisions and prevent bad decisions. Gramscianism, Existentialism, Liberalism, and some Anarchisms tend toward creating RDem. Deng Xiaoping Thought may tend toward RDem as well.

Prejudice Existentialism is purely focused on the act of constantly smashing signs in the hope that depriving people of any notion of facts or truth will lead to everyone perceiving reality correctly, although paradoxically Prejudice Existentialists typically claim that it is impossible to see reality through anything but signs and ontological models, which should make their task literally impossible to achieve for even a second. a rather intellectually dishonest field of philosophy in my opinion. if it were true that it is potentially a prejudice to call basically anything a fact, it would also be true that reality is nothing more than a bloody chunk war where whoever wins is automatically correct for the rest of history. Prejudice Existentialists have no way to actually disprove that claim, so they just resort to saying that acknowledging it to be true is Evil and equivocating everything else to be equally true is Good. I really hate the notion that morality is the only thing that's true. because first of all, how do you even know if morality is correct or real if nothing else is, how can you use it as your grounding? the problem they always run into in real life is that people all over the real world reject morality, and then when they point out prejudice as the fundamental sin that is the most obvious thing that makes any statement wrong nobody actually listens or cares. how do they know that thinking anybody cares about the concept of "prejudice" isn't a prejudice that makes their own theory obsolete?

Lenin's filter is the process of taking a coarse movement of people and building up correct answers, procedures, strategies, and movement shapes such that the movement improves itself and becomes a party-nation. according to some Maoists, the process of operating Lenin's filter is synonymous with the party itself, and I'd say that is broadly correct but I still prefer to label a filter as the process that creates the party and the Bauplan as the shape of the party-nation

I don't like this filter. it makes it very hard to distinguish the mathematical shape of progressive movements from the shape of racism, xenophobia, Colonial Exploitation, bigoted monotheisms, or the anti-mental-illness processes described by Deleuze and Guattari or Foucault. this filter is the thing that makes me outright dislike the concept of morality and feel like we need to use other methods to avoid morality ever turning into a justification for atrocities
</li><li class="field_mdem" value="329" data-dimension="L">Lattice model / The Lattice -> this is either MDem's filter or at least another mathematical transform very adjacent to filters. it's the process of taking isolated islands and linking them, going through a "search for quantum lions and avoid quantum leopards" process until people aren't isolated and are safe from being surrounded by threats. this concept can apply to many different scales from very small ones to very large ones, such it could be used to diagram going from isolated individuals all the way up to a Communist International. why is it a lattice? because it's a graph of nodes, and before meta-Marxism the idea of using graph theory to describe movements wasn't heard of as far as I know. final note: the Lattice model is different from Rhizome in that it explicitly acknowledges the possibility of many tiny plural "rhizomes" and that as separate objects they may not inherently want to come together. it's also different in that it recognizes that every tiny "rhizome" can be a different Social-Philosophical System, only deciding where to go based on what it actually believes and in no way magnetically pulled toward anything without deliberately following the Lattice model as a guide.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="369" data-dimension="L">[[Ontology:L369|extreme / extremist]] -> absolute weasel word. the strangest thing is I can't think of the exact antonym: it isn't center, moderate, middle-ground, normal, reasonable, equatorial. I think in an Existentialist perspective the antonym may actually be "tolerant". "extreme" conceals the concept of totalization and the contrast to a morality-based view of individual tolerance of absolutely anything and everything from other individuals or groups unless it is absolutely hazardous. (previously I had this at L58, but it belongs much more nicely next to degree)

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="371" data-dimension="L">quality / qualify / qualifier -> it's remarkable how Platonism is not necessarily distinguishable from alchemy. or how the way normal people talk about ideologies and philosophies seems indistinguishable from this Platonism-alchemy.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWZhbJXFzQ8] it also seems like certain chapters of MDem are basically doing the same thing as pataphysics in the way they start with strange associations and throw in total curve balls to get everyone off their established scripts and get them to actually think. Alfred Jarry called it 'pataphysics, I just call it "meta-ontology". in a sense, it's like the SCP wiki has to use a wrong definition because the Foundation is all about containing things and keeping things normal, but 'pataphysics is actually about using such insane strategies to solve things it would go against the Foundation's typical protocols. "Admonition" was a missed opportunity to define 'pataphysics utterly correctly yet make it this bizarre anomalous almost-scary thing that's not just philosophy and is nearly forbidden most of the time

</li><li class="field_geo" value="622" data-dimension="L">pattern / repeated pattern -> I say "repeated pattern" a ton, and I always mean it relatively literally. normal people might call the same notion of repeated patterns ten different things. they would look at mathematical objects consistently forming the same data structure and say "proper class". etc

</li><li value="662" class="field_trotsky" data-remark="heresy" data-dimension="L">Gnosticism / Gnostic / gnosticism -> make this a different term from "agnostic"/"gnostic", because this has its own conflicting connotations. to some people it's just a rival religion, to others it's basically the devil

<ol><li>bible definition - literally described as the opposer of God
</li><li>(Toryism) Satanic: anybody or any thing theorized to secretly be plotting Evil conspiracies to prevent everybody from joining the one correct human social circle and knowing the narrow set of behaviors and cultural associations which are Good. a wrecker who prevents realizing the Material System of world Christianity.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="696" data-dimension="L">post-language -> don't know if other theories have other definitions of this word. in MDem entries post-language refers to a kind of communication which eradicates all mental associations and has a hard requirement to be equally understandable to any individual who reads it anywhere regardless of what that particular individual believes words to mean. in some cases this can lead to wordy, absurdly-precise descriptions which put readers to sleep and are equally unintelligible to everybody. art is almost always written in language and hardly ever in post-language. any nonfiction statement posted to the internet almost invariably ends up having to be expressed in post-language. "logical fallacy" and "cognitive bias" guidelines very frequently force perfectly understandable language into stilted and unnatural post-language: somebody says "there are two options" not intending to rule out others, and a pedant comes along forcing a correction to "there are at least two options", "there are two major options", or "there are two options but I was not saying those were the only ones" (these explicit disclaimer clauses seem to be one of the most common forms of post-language). the "[[Philosophical_Research:Molecular_Democracy/5.2/1019_ours-democracies|ours groups]]" chapter is very deliberately and satirically written in post-language.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="698" data-dimension="L">bull -> I'm hesitant to quite put "bullshit" in the first 2000 Lexemes, although I don't see any reason it shouldn't be added after that; we've gotta contain our swearwords somewhere before we ban them, and what better place than here? oh well, now this term can also contain senses of "bullcrap".
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="699" data-dimension="L">spaghetti / spaghetti code / ontological spaghetti -> literal food; difficult to understand code; completely meaningless-sounding plate of unfamiliar philosophy words that never seems to get easier to understand (meta-Marxist term first used to mock Lacanianism). similar to "word salad", but with the difference that it strongly appears to actually mean something due to its proper lexical structure of signs and statements until the points at which all the self-referentiality and insular forms of meaning render it impossible to actually comprehend or explain to anybody. ontological spaghetti is twisted and woven into a neat yet unexplainable structure just like spaghetti noodles.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="700" data-dimension="L">narrative -> history; legend; fantasy book; of or relating to dramatization techniques; slanted sociophilosophy; fascist rhetoric; single official record of history everybody is fighting over; etc. this word is an adventure in itself

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="703" data-dimension="L">dragon -> like lions these creatures have multiple readings as monsters or as strong beings of courage. monster; courage; Satanic anathema; word reused for arbitrary new creatures; plurality, diversity, outright used in scheme of Media Representation (<cite>Dragon Masters</cite>)

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="706" data-dimension="L">hero -> has fairly common pejorative usage dismissing its possibility; also, the concept that reactionaries can have heroes and they certainly aren't other people's heroes
</li><li class="field_horror" value="707" data-dimension="L">villain -> driving arts experts crazy by including descriptivist accounts of fans downgrading villains to antagonists and explaining the hell out of them. I love it because as much as some people are total beginners at writing, it does show they're thinking about things and questioning the assumptions of real or fictional societies
</li><li class="field_horror" value="708" data-dimension="L">immortality -> why is this word 2/3 of the time a backdoor to sneak Buddhism and its model of the individual into Christian or progressive-philosophical discourse. the moment before we discuss fiction people have ordinary comprehensible definitions of what life and death are. the moment we start talking about "immortality" suddenly everyone on earth believes in Buddhism and thinks life and death are each totally different things from what they usually are.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="709" data-dimension="L">immortal -> separate Lexeme which contains the concept in Buddhism sloppily called this when it's something different

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="710" data-dimension="L">verisimilitude / verisimilitudinous / verisimilar -> very relevant when analyzing fiction. why are Marxist analyses of fiction possible when in theory it should be that fiction can be anything at all and a great number of authors do not know anything about Marxism? because of verisimilitude. people create fictional ontologies by superficially copying real-life ontologies, which can amusingly result in fiction containing ontologies that are specifically realistic enough they provide for the possibility of Bolshevism.

== Unsorted Lexemes ==

* egoism
* individualism
* meta-ontologically sound / meta-ontological soundness -> a statement is meta-ontologically sound when it would be recognized as true by anyone in any ideological faction or interest-having population of people which has a high school education and does not believe blatantly false statements. those are a little hard to find for Toryism, of course, but educated Tories do exist; they're a bit scary because they see all the evidence that progressives point to without being able to deny it, and then spin that factual information as bad to protect some pre-defined set of interests like "my family" or "my socially-linked several-state-sized reactionary subpopulation of White people". the good news is that a lot of statements by Tories fail to be meta-ontologically sound even if they're based on lists of true facts because there are reasons they blatantly cannot be recognized as true by other ideologies.
* slider-speak -> this didn't have its own term in MDem drafts until very very recently. for a while I called it generalized alchemy, or metaphysics, or mistaking the ability to create adjectives for reality. I still think those all fit fine. but we need to really stop and characterize this thing at length so we genuinely see how weird it is.
* stealth activism -> this is a totally stupid term for a reasonable thing. the definition I heard almost reduced it down to taking over structures and Each Individual In Parallel Culturing Better. which is... very Gramscian. it may be necessary and even effective but my one issue is I wish nobody would use the word activism for it. it's like. sure, you can do that. but there eventually comes a point where you're preserving particular oppressive countable Cultures for the hell of it and committing to take the steering wheel of the oppression bus and run it a little less bad, while — here is the real problem that overshadows any other concern — you're part of an overall national population which by its own existence justifies torching other people-groups in an act of self-defense murder just because the national population exists. self-defense genocide exists now. (even though it did exist in 1800, I know.) do you know what kind of atom-thick hair edge Gramscianism is operating on? do people even know that. one day you can be doing ""stealth activism"" and the next day the people you barely shifted over to win one issue could be torching you too, because two different swaths of stealth-activists for different issues ended up on different sides of the Torching Unamericans divide where only so many people fit in the core group of people truly allowed to live. as time goes on I increasingly feel like Gramscianism is an elite ideology and it's not really for the people who actually get hurt by Toryism or "fascism". why do you need Gramscianism if you already fit into institutions well enough to infiltrate them?
* cultural context -> this phrase kills me because I feel like it is used for ten different things and every time people say it they're using it to get out of distinguishing those things from each other. Foucault used it to describe a stage of development of class society, with actual structures and territory-owners. a Deltarune video I listened to used it to describe people living in one US state instead of another, literally just the geographical region people live in and the weather and climate they had experiences about. see why it's not actually a very clear thing? people are conditioned to think populations are made out of culture and culture can easily be used to distinguish populations but then when they describe what culture is they're often describing things that come almost strictly before culture per-se.
* military-cultural complex -> this is what has existed since the Cold War. this is what I have been trying to get at with descriptions of all socially-linked groups of people generating The State to protect the sheer existence of their socially-linked group of friends.
* Herculean task
* Sisyphean task
* Minosian task -> a task so bad you lock it away
* Promethean task -> "something you know is the right thing to do but you still get punished for it"
* Odyssean task -> task that "should have been simple but everything goes wrong in the worst ways making it insanely long"
* Orphean task -> when you are doomed to fail for the same reasons you are desperate to succeed
* solidarity -> the more I read about this word the more it sounds to me like it's a question rather than an answer. it began around the time of the French Revolution but every single person trying to create a new theory of how to build society defined it a bit differently. I really think solidarity is just a word more than it's a concept. to actually achieve proletarian solidarity you need to define new much more specific concepts like filtration
* recursion -> fractal process of some kind; programming usage; specific cybernetics use
* world party -> pros of Bordigism: actually talks about patterns of party operation which are oddly specific. cons of Bordigism: I don't have the slightest idea what any of these things are.
* essentialism
* anti-essentialism -> one of the better theories for understanding human individuals themselves rather than whole populations
* strategic essentialism -> a particular concept of benign nationalism used in context of national independence from global empire, as in India. I am trying so hard not to say the words "culture", "colonial", or "postcolonial" because I feel like that cluster of concepts has muddied up absolutely everything and made every single struggle people are trying to get through across the world harder. why did we all decide people were made of culture rather than [[redlink - Hyper-Materialism|being made of people and populations]]. why did we do that.
* strategic anti-essentialism -> George Lipsitz (b.1947). the act of resisting membership in a particular restrictive Social-Philosophical System of culture by expressing the practices of a different Social-Graph System of culture. see: Satanism and Gnosticism, wiccans and pagan revival, schizoanalysis, United States otaku.
* agent -> already used to describe the concept of Group Subjects in slightly obscure biology/ecology research
* solidarity -> original definition of Third World proletarian subpopulations standing together against all owning classes; vulgarized definition where it has been co-opted into the entirely different idea of Existentialist individuals throughout multiple First World countries standing together because they are The Subject. this word is like, the day that Marxism absolutely died because Marxists ceased being aware that the First World was weaponizing the notions of "empathy" and "community" to defend all scales of chunk competition and crush empathy, community, and solidarity alike.
* denial of coloniality -> way better phrasing than trying to turn every word for empire into a word for prejudices in people's heads
* The West -> it's always been really weird to me people say this. it always weirdly feels as if people passively acknowledge the existence of a British Empire after the British Empire.
* The East
* Filamentocracy -> add to "Filament"
** democulture is the class ideology of Filamentocracy. that's just it. that's why people believe in democulture and Goku's filter
* intersubjectivity
* Market Society -> this came up in MDem v4.3 and kind of fell off as a major topic although it very much stayed a term. near synonym for primitive Existentialism but focuses more on the notion of isolation. coined to mock the term "market economy" by pointing out what economies really are: society itself. socioeconomies.
* [S2] Kirby is a metaphor for humanity / Kirby is the quintessential Subject -> really funny copypasta [https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/afr9xc/kirby_is_a_metaphor_for_humanity/] [https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] <s>somebody seems to have dreamed up while up into the morning unable to sleep, I mean that's my injection of my own experience but yeah.</s> from a Polygon video? I was just trying to find the definition of "bookman's bluff" and here we are
* free-floating -> add to "free"; very similar usage to an object being "knocked free" or "wrested free"
* constructive process -> related to "construct" as is also used as a verb
* destructive process
* nationogenesis -> the slow or quick assembly of individuals within an existing national population into a new nation and spatially-unique realized Bauplan. the reason this "needed" a new word is that it can happen with people of the same ethnic group and religion and who are overall seemingly the same group of people in every way, yet who spontaneously begin drifting into totally new groups of people thanks to the news station they listen to, their incomplete understanding of Leninism, or some other factor that would be unexpected to most people
* postification / post- / post-ify -> not used many times in v5.2 in favor of returning to plainer language, but the concept is always there in basically every chapter
* physics as equalling factical systems; physics as relativistic causality exchange
* thought / think -> logical process Lexeme
* modal realism: all hypothetically possible worlds are technically real. David Lewis.
* economy / socioeconomy
* socioeconomy, sociophilosophy, socioempire, sociocurrency
* rival / rivalrous -> I forget why I added this. it had something to do with Creative Commons and "non-rivalrous goods" and some killer analogy I'd gotten from that vaguely related to chunk competition or graph economics but I forget the exact connection I made. I think it was something like, when everyone lives in rivalrous houses, and has to pay for them with rivalrous jobs, and it's so easy to totally slip past anyone else's attention because people have to "spend" their attention on one thing or another, it's hard for anything to really actually be non-rivalrous. populations are rivalrous, countable Cultures are rivalrous, physical individuals are rivalrous. you have to overcome all of that just to create a non-rivalrous good
