Im so depressed socialism lost...

Im so depressed socialism lost. Some nights I listen to communist songs about fallen heroic comrades and how their sacrifices weren't in vein because the bright new future they fought for is right around the corner and I just want to fucking kill myself. Many of those nights I end up crying myself to sleep.

And the best part is no one understands it, everyone around me is blissfully ignorant and even my gf who knows about this just thinks I'm weird.

Are you being for realz?

I mean, it is shit that they sacrificed for a nothing.

But this happens to people all the time.

Do it comrade, for the revolution.

Trotskyist just fucking kill yourself fucking fascist infiltrator.

you feel bad
individuals here are amused by your suffering
the only solution is to post eve content

I don't feel that bad about it, but it is really annoying waking up, going to a shitty job where my labor counts for nothing, toiling while the T.V. blares news about ridiculous issues that could easily be solved under socialism, then coming home at 8pm with no energy to do anything but sleep and dream of a better world.

Damn even here no one gets it fuck me

We are living in a post-apocalyptic dystopia

This is why I seek to run for head of state one day. It's a long shot but it's better than sitting on my ass.

Listening to jazz while imagining living in communism , the sad part is i will fight for communism but i will die before it wins the world

Grow some fucking balls you flaming faggot.

Nice dream, but even as head of state you'd have no power if people are class-unconscious.

Im afraid capitalists will destroy it

...

i feel you m8 but you're a trotskyte so i can't take you serious

m8, a lot of people here are too busy worrying about day to day financial concerns to be fretting over joffe getting gulag'd fiddy years ago.

i suggest you take my previous post to heart and do something useful like dedicating your life to uploading super capitalism in space content

perhaps, but i'm not going to make a Billy Bragg tier party, but instead radicalise an existing one and use that as a vector to spread conciousness

Country?

You might live long enough to see the capitalism crumble but maybe this time beyond repair.

And unlike 99% of the people on this planet, you have a political ideology that you can wear as an armour, you are despooked and have a vision of how society should look like. You should go outside and be an Übermensch when global Capitalism buries itself more and more into the pile of dung it is creating currentry! Hope that cheers your up, I feel similar

UK. I seriously thing the groundwork for class conciousness has been laid by parliament being a bunch of cads. It just needs a push in the right direction.

Damn you guys are motivated af.

I should be like you

For now, I just study theory, save up money and plan.

Are you not in a party or some form of organisation that'd immunize you against petty feelings of defeatism?

Nazbol spook talking about being despookyfied…

Stalin is Satan I fucking knew it.

i suggest you join a nonrevisionist trot party fam. if you surround yourself with revolutionary comrades its a lot harder to succumb to the defeatist blues.

I keep the defeatist bug away by immersing myself in theory while listening to left wing music

unless you're an antisocial borderline assburger like me that's not supposed the focus. education is nothing if not put into practice.

It is only a matter of time, when I have the funds and knowledge of the system, i will join the labour party and really throw myself into it, get involved so to rise through the ranks over time.

sincerely glad that works for you amigomans but it sounded to me like studying history was only making op feel worse

Then don't get hung up on history, but instead plan for the future by acting on the present.

I think most people here get this, it's just that we've acclimated to it.

Comrade, remember the words of Lenin:

"We are fighting better than our fathers did. Our children will fight better than we do, and they will be victorious."

...

...

Poop.

fuck OP I feel this. I'm a burgerfat but I'll listen to German songs about losing Liebknecht and Luxy, or watch this song/video about Ernst Thalmann with the chorus "Thalmann has never fallen!" hold me

...

I completely understand, comrade.

tbh seizing the MoP would help the ethnic minorities probably more than whites, I'm not a racist cock I just believe in the nation state. So don't be butthurt, makes me want to limit your rights


At least I'm not a lolbert that hides behind a flag of a movement that hilariously failed in every country

jesus christ comrade get your shit together, socialism is still being fought for the world over, but heavily suppressed by the media.

out

tovarish plz dont torture me even more

...

Is your GF leftist? If not not then who cares what she thinks? If she is then it's quite clear she does not share the revolutionary zeal that you have?

I know that feel. But there will be new battles to be fought. Now is the time to lick wounds and come up with better theory.

...

You honestly sound like a fag and should kill yourself

But stalin was dictator scum that betrayed the revolution. I get being a stalinist when he was alive for the sake of unity, but what's the point of being a stalinist in 2016?

As for joining a stalinist party, the strongest stalinist party in my country stated this year that homosexuality is a choice and gay marriege a tool of the bourgeoisie, also that smoking weed is a mental illness.

I'd die before being a tankie


History does make me depressed, so much blood spilled for nothing.


The proletariat is so content in their ignorance nowdays though, what future can we hope for?


Having a partner doesnt make you magically happy. The world is still shit

She isn't that class conscious, she has adhd so it's hard for her to read hegel and marx. She tries for me though, reads something if i send it to her even if it takes her long. Can't ask for more

Why would Stalinist party care about any of this?

I smell bullshit.

...

From Brazil. I have no prospect of any radical change happening in this country, for a long time. There is no mass movements that support wholeheartedly the left or the right. Things are looking grin, as they always were, as we returned to a economy based on the exportation of primary commodities (since the 90s).

Crime and poverty are the norm. There is no sense of economic or personal (day to day life) security for proles (and even for porkies, which is even more terrifying because you'd think at least they would have access to a more "secure" existence).

Our left became coddled with the State. They were, in some way, accommodated under the political structure of our democracy and the respectfulness that PT offered (but not anymore). The stalinists, trotskyists, even "anarchists, and others are a joke, they have no support from/for the population. (Which is funny because the Trots are huge in Argentina).

The fight, in the economic field, was won by neoliberals. The fight on the political field is being fought between NeoLiberals and proponents of some type of Social-Democracy/Welfare State.

I consider myself as some kind of Lelninist (with a sniff of pure ideology man). After accepting a kind of pragmatist position and even helping both anarchists and leninists organizations to try and gather some public attention (or anything, at all) to a different kind of approach to politics, economy and social life…I don't know, things do not look good.

All I can wish for, right now is that, somehow, this hue population is given, or takes by force, access to arms. I'll be in my bunker till then.

Our brazilian left is spooked as hell, the average brazilian leftist is an idealistic, unrespectable weakling, with little or no support from the proles.

Look it up, im talking about the KKE (communist party of greece)

That sounds bad. I split my time between greece and serbia. Greece has some left parties with small followings, mostly university students. In serbia the left is completely dead, there is some stalinist party that has almost no following whatsoever

So fucking depressing

Well that's the point of politics, you do , or at least say, whatever gets you support. Right?
The stalinist party just happens to be a particularly rare flavour of politico scum.

Our unions were essentially "killed" with the transition from the Fordist mode of production to a Toyotist one, diminishing the numbers of industrial workers by the thousands. And the economical step taken in the '90s from a "national developmentalism" policy (with heavy emphasis on the industrial sector of the economy) to a exportation based policy (with emphasis on speculative capital/cambial trade), did only reassure the killing of the bargain power of the Unions.

And they were the main force propelling our Left, at least in the second half of the 20th century. The workers were made into informal laborers - ie. what Jesse de Souza calls "ralé" and "batalhadores" (categories for the new stratifications of the working class, excluded from formal work). Our "revolutionary agent" is becoming less and less revolutionary (if it ever was anyway) and even less capable of being a person, under the future living conditions.

And, yeah. The left found the university students, professors, and so on, as a type of temporary "replacement" its own de-massification, imo. The ideology of the ruling class was absorbed in their rhetoric, theory and praxis. I suspect the next presidential election to become a shit show akin to the American one, to be honest; talks about economic, social and political matters are being shunned by either an retarded ruling class that contents itself with being the butt of the joke of the capitalist world or a leftist "representation" of the working people that double talks as a living.

We can offer nothing. I can do nothing. Third-worldism is a lie.
