there is an alternative to both electoral politics and selfish libertarianism; it is to read lenin
Lenin's analysis is very outdated though
I wouldn't doubt it but it's still probably worth the read to extrapolate on after.
I actually want to read Marx's writings now. Not any of the "well here's a summary" shit that people have written, I mean a direct translation version.
If you do read Marx I recommend reading all three volumes of Capital. He's kind of famously contradictory as his writings went on.
I'll keep that in mind.
I have conversations about it a lot, but it's kind of the main reason economists generally don't engage discussions on the labor theory of value. Later work contradicts earlier work and makes it hard to fully examine because "what did Marx really mean" becomes the inherent question a lot of the time.
If it's consistently "later work contradicts earlier work," then it means the concept is evolving. Which seems fine and normal to me. Nothing should stay cemented in original writing or concept. Look at where we are with the Constitution of the USA, for example.
True, but I should say that most of the time when things like LTV come up people refer to volume 1 Marx of it even though the idea evolved well past that.
There's a podcast I listen to that thankfully is mindful of that when they recommended it.

Conservatives think fascism and imperialism are rad as hell and want to do it as much as possible
Liberals are uncomfortable with fascism but like the benefits of it too much to fight it all that hard, and pretty much also think imperialism is rad as hell
What are the benefits of fascism that liberals like?
$$$
Unironically, and academically speaking, fascism is the end result of capitalism when it reaches its inevitable failure. By being pro-capitalism, people are inherently pro-fascism.
Well that's only if your capitalist system is being fueled by one or many ethnic second classes that can be scapegoated for that failure.
Which they all are, but it's not technically a necessary element of a capitalist society.
I don't actually think from a purely political philosophy point of view that capitalism leads to fascism (fascism being quite a specific thing) but I do think that conservatism forms the soft foundations for the specific phenomenon of fascism (fascism needs anti-intellectualism, nationalism, traditionalism etc and conservatism provides all those things) and outside of certain very specific circumstances, conservatism and capitalism are intrinsically entwined. It is very rare to see non-free market espousing conservatives in almost any political culture.
I also don't think classic liberalism is actually a precursor to fascism, or that they are pro-fascism (they are definitely pro-capital though) but I do think that it is unable to combat it effectively and neoliberalism is especially so, and that by facilitating capitalism they essentially facilitate strains of conservatism which then form the soft foundations etc etc etc. Like I don't believe that Pelosi is pro-fascist I just think she's entirely incapable of formulating a way to deal with fascism within her political philosophy and that the political philosophy she does have supports the economic system beloved by those who are pro-fascist or are proto-fascist. I also think that the shared interest in promoting capitalism that liberals and conservatives have will mean that they will fundamentally always ally against anti-capitalistic strains of political thought
This is the part of Solar's day when he remembers how the Conservatives always present Conservatism as not being an ideology but rather simply being at the confluence of "common sense," "individualism" and "opportunism" and how convincing anyone ever that Conservatism is anything other than hugely based in irrational ideological belief was 100% the greatest trick they ever played. The bastards. God I hate them.

pelosi probably isn't wholeheartedly in favor of fascism, but she absolutely 100% is more okay with rubber stamping the current admin's fascist priorities than she is with the most milquetoast of social democratic policies like sanders and ocasio-cortez and omar and tlaib are pushing for. i think that goes beyond just not having the ability to fight fascism, it reads much more like she considers the left wing of her own party to be a greater threat than the overtly fascistic shit the GOP is pushing for
this is probably pretty uncharitable on my part, but she and the rest of the party leadership don't get the benefit of the doubt anymore. it seems clear to me at this point they know exactly what they're doing

The coherent thought I would say is that I don't think that the DNC (Pelosi and Biden and so on being emblemic of them) is actively pro-fascism but I do think they have some pretty abhorrent views in of themselves (they're cool with billionaires, and capitalist exploitation, and the CIA abducting people, and drone strikes, and authoritarian police violence etc), I think that they're utterly fucking out of touch, and I think that they have no coherent way to deal with fascism in America right now.

i think the democratic leadership are concerned with appearing to resist the president's shit without actually doing anything meaningful. shit like that kneeling stunt they did the other month, or pelosi ripping up the copy of the state of the union while also uncritically okaying the new DOD budget, all the while being actively hostile to people in their own party because they actually want to improve poor folks' lot at the expense of taxing billionaires marginally more. i don't see any way around the idea that the mainline democrats agree with the GOP on a lot more than they agree on with extremely modest socialism-type stuff
I think that they probably think the only way to win elections is to get small-c swing voters to appeal to them, AOC and so on never will, therefore they will shut them down for those reasons and also because these people are capitalists with aforementioned abhorrent views.
I don't think they're sitting there thinking "we'd prefer Trump to AOC, that crazy socialist!" I think they're sitting there thinking "AOC is wrong, neoliberalism is good, we can make capitalism work, billionaires and the police (outside some bad apples we can deal with using good legislation) are fine anyway what is she complaining about, and also her policies are not electable and neoliberalism is anyway so whatever she needs to shut up and learn her place as a callow inexperienced youth, we will adopt these policies instead and that'll mean we'll defeat Trumpism," in a nutshell.

the most succinct way i can think of to describe what i'm trying to get at is the democrats (and liberals in general) want to sustain a status quo that is very quickly becoming not possible to sustain, and full-on unapologetic fascism is a lot closer to our status quo than socialism would be

They falsely accused a black man of rape to ensure her replacement would be loyal.
The idea of Dirty cops existing is so acknowledg'd in American society that is practically a film genre
That's not just the US mind
I'd say it's a whole genre in Australia, UK, Hong Kong and Italy, to name but four
in fact if there is a country that has failed to establish a strong cinematographic convention that cops are inherently corrupt and filthy then I would probably be giving a sharp eye to its state run censorship bureau.
edit: if anything I'd say the thing I associate as being more 'american' than anywhere else is the convention that cops are the good guys.
In less BLM but still "our politicians are scumbags" news, they released the supposed to be redacted documents of Ghislaine Maxwell's court records today (Jeffery Epstein's assistant who scouted/trafficked underage girls for him).
I say "supposed" because they completely fucked up, and you can read everything that is blacked out by just copy pasting the entire document into wordpad.

My experience with middle schoolers and politics is their opinions appear largely molded by their environments.
Like, back in 2016 I worked with 7th graders who passionately liked Bernie Sanders. They couldn't tell me why they liked him or what policies they agreed with, but they wanted him to win.
Which, there are adults like that as well, so...?
I’d say most adults are like that. It’s important to remember that the majority of users of this forum are much more tied into politics than the average person.
Oh yeah.
My best friend admitted to me in 2016 that he didn't know the difference between liberal or conservatives, as well as democrats or republicans.
I also do not know the difference between republicans and democrats, and at this point, I don't think anyone does.
