  • The classic model of petty bourgeoisie being the progenitor of fascism works well in America.

    Petty bourgeoisie make up a large portion of the Republican base. Petty bgz themselves are the direct inheritors of the settler ideology and elevated position in society (thus it also includes many poor whites already “demoted” in social status). They feel the contradictions intensify from both sides, workers asking for more, and big bgz taking over. This puts them in a precarious position of becoming workers, so the petty bgz naturally act according to their (privileged) interests and become very reactionary.

    An analysis of Trump’s attempted coup on Jan 6th reveals the petty bourgeois make up of his supporters. He is a useful tool of the big bourgeoisie to resolve this contradiction.

    So I think before attempting to analyze big bourgeois intraclass conflict, it’s very important to consider the basic big bgz-petty bgz situation.

    Yep. On the Internet it’s insufferable arrogance in my experience as a degree holding biology stemlord. They do not have the same investigative/scientific mindset when it comes to history so when they step outside their fields they come up with lazy analysis and no historical materialism.

    In other words it’s the same lazybones liberal attitude towards history but coupled with the arrogance of being told that science is the toughest area and for smart people.





  • I’m not into cryptid stuff but I understand the sentiment with American woods. Lord knows how many dangerous people are just wandering around wilderness areas looking for random solo victims, given the USAs serial killer/mass murder numbers and how easy it is to get a gun. And it would impossible to ever find a killer like that.

    America has killed millions, funded terrorism around the world, overturned governments and replaced them with fascists to open countries up to exploitation resulting in the absolute most horrible conditions imaginable.

    Meanwhile all you know about these other countries is what America’s ruling class feeds you- that they are evil, backwards nations incapable of governing themselves.

    Unfortunately this is also racist - you probably didn’t want to hear that but hey you’re the one who thinks these things. It’s also pretty racist that America itself was founded on the genocide of millions of real Americans (Natives). It’s not looking good for you.

    Anyway, this is all sort of long and history may be sort of boring to you. But the conclusion to all of this is that you just aren’t very smart.

    Cheers lol.








  • It endlessly amazes me how stupid libs are. You have economist Jeffrey Sachs the architect of the failed shock therapy who was front row for the post USSR Russia on what must be hundreds of interviews in the past two years now explaining in plain words that the US never ever once intended for Russia to be an equal or even to join NATO.
