9k:RD/ meta-Marxist hypothesis (Q29,97)
Main entries
- Those who control the correct mathematics control the future -> the only way "nonviolence" successfully solves anything in and of itself. say we want Stalin and Trotsky to coexist nonviolently. there is going to be a correct way for this to happen, and many incorrect ways which won't result in it happening. if Stalin solves the correct method for Stalin and Trotsky to coexist as part of one structure, he holds the power. there's nothing Trotsky can say. if Stalin arranges all the Trotskyites into the correct structures and all of them are content with those structures, then whenever the two or so that aren't commit violence, all the former Trotskyites which are already coexisting nonviolently will stop them and squash their rebellion. the future is retermined. people don't choose what the future is; it's calculated from the multivariable function of people that surround each other put together. the sheer power of retermination is why Existentialism has worked the way it does and been so effective at stopping anything else from coming into being.
- "there is going to be a correct way for this to happen" — citation needed, R.D.!
it's still a decent rhetorical tactic though. I like making people confront the immense violence that has to happen to millions of individuals to restore capitalism, and the surprising realization that Communist revolution is absolutely nothing like the United States waging a war in Iraq or Palestine, which despite people being horrified by the concept of 'revolution' they will keep excusing as if in some way it's not as bad.
