But what if an autonomous firm decides they don't agree with this? Again anarchy depends on everyone already agreeing and being chill to function.

Hierarchy isn't the same as distinct classes, this is just ridiculous. How does your federalism eliminate these artificial divisions? I gave you a concrete example, if you can use that example to explain to me how your federalism functions differently from regular federalism that would be helpful.

what if the worker at an autonomous factory decided that they have a right to dump waste in the river or dump as much CO2 into the air as they please even if that goes against the democratic will of the other people who are affected by this?

-bourgeois ideology (liberalism) and the individualism that proliferates from it. A good example of why federalism is undemocratic is one I touched on earlier;

What classes? Yes there's a contradiction between the state and the masses, but that doesn't make them another class. Federalism is an incomplete form of democracy. While in many ways it was a qualitative leap in our understanding of democracy it's inseparable from-

I don't think they should have combined the unions with the state, but this was before our scientific understanding of capitalist restoration and the necessity of a cultural revolution was understood. Seeing as the Soviet Union was the first socialist state and didn't have the benefit of hindsight.

They integrated the committees with the state, which was good, committees shouldn't function outside of the party, it would be an infringement of democracy for the entire country to allow these to be autonomous.

They didn't win with direct action in the simple terms you say, they won through building concrete proletarian power, through the Bolshevik minimum program and duel power. The Soviet peoples objectively had more control over their workplace than ever before in human history.

K, if there's an international revolution I'll eat crow and say you were right, till that happens I'm going to stick to what the science of revolution has already confirmed. What new kinds of exploitation? Certainly nothing that hasn't happened in any anarchist state.

🌸Scarlett🌸 @radsferics.bsky.social · 14/11/2024
I don't think the proletariat revolution will be international, experience has taught us this is an impossibility. But abolishing money and wage labor will need to be an international project between proletarian states

🌸Scarlett🌸 @radsferics.bsky.social · 14/11/2024
Because you can't just abolish wage labor in one country, this is an infantile critique. Why is ancap an oxymoron? If you just mean it's a silly ideology then yes I agree.

Incorrect, they voted for managers. Yes production functioned under a planned economy that dictated what a given industry needed to produce for the good of the nation rather than profit, but to take issue with this is to expose the fact that anarcho-capitalism is the only honest form of anarchy

Russia, China and Romania, I'm sure there were other socialist experiments that probably gave workers a degree of democracy over the workplace, but those three are the only ones that actually achieved socialism for any period of time and can be considered socialist states.

🌸Scarlett🌸 @radsferics.bsky.social · 13/11/2024
Every socialist state has given workers democracy over the workplace. Yes there are laws that concern the workplace like making sure that industries dont poison the environment. A concern that anarchist radical individualism can't really seem to address. Yall seem to think everyone will just be cool

Yeah in the west it seems like most Marxist start out as anarchists, I definitely did, and most of the people I organize with did as well. You have to peel away the layers of propaganda

Nothing. They've always stood for nothing. They're just another bourgeois party, their only virtue is keeping the profits coming in for rich folks.

This was always going to happen btw. For any liberals that are concerned by the trend of more and more oppressed peoples being thrown under the bus by Democrats every election cycle, just know that all of you are completely disposable by the Democratic party. Only militant organizing can save us.

South Africa election set to end three decades of ANC dominance
South Africa was set to end three decades of dominance by the party that freed it from apartheid on Saturday, as voters angry at joblessness, inequality and power shortages slashed the vote share of the African National Congress (ANC) to 40%.

Like I said, voting in the short term is fine as long as it doesn't interfere with movement and dual power structure building, the problem is it usually does; by design.

-to keep housing a commodity. Building more houses will not change that basic fact. Voting under capitalism is an opiate which exists to undermine change. Cointelpro is equal parts murdering revolutionary leaders and funneling the movements that support them into voting for the democrats.

🌸Scarlett🌸 @radsferics.bsky.social · 16/04/2024
You're completely missing the point. Voting in a capitalist state is not a legitimate route to change; by design. It's a means of keeping the masses loyal to the system of expropriation. Homelessness doesn't exist because we need to build houses, it exists because manufactured scarcity is necessary-

Yeah, maybe a certain section of intellectuals in semi-feudal societies, but by and large they're a pretty reactionary class, at least up until the CM has more to offer them than the bourgeoisie, and even then they seem to be one of the main forces of revisionist tendencies after the revolution

Nearly 9 in 10 trans people in state prisons have been locked in solitary confinement. Solitary confinement was sometimes used “as a result of harassment, discrimination, or concerns for safety.” Solitary confinement is torture.

Voting always impacts liberation negatively, there's maybe an argument for participating in it for the short term as long as it isn't interfering with movement and dual power structure building, but ultimately bourgeois "democracy" is a tool of class rule used to pacify and dominate the masses.

This is why electoralism is an entirely worthless strategy for liberation. The petite bourgeois is just as selfish and racist as the big bourgeoisie they aspire to be. Populism is especially dangerous in imperialist countries because-

Amerika isn't a democracy. Who's gonna turn the dictatorship of the bourgeois into a different dictatorship of the bourgeois? Probably trump, it's funny because the democrats only exists as a tool to crush mass movements, if their scheme works the ruling class will have to reinvent a new dem party
