well that's just childish isn't it

do you consider that a rebuttal?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

yes because it's not anything intelligent enough to be thoughtfully argued against. a 7 year old could see the holes in such an idea

I oppose one more system of authority than you do, in the interest of ideological consistency, intellectual honesty.

are you taking the position of a literal child?

is revolution not putting the authority of the people over those in power, and bringing those people low? that's "hierarchy"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

that depends if you draw distinction between the people and the state (which is merely an abstraction of capital)

state capitalism, as defined by lenin, is not a classless society, and is indefensible as a liberatory philosophy.

just as liberalism abolished the monarchy only to replace it with a dictatorship of private capital, authoritarian socialism replaced monarchy with a beaurocratic ruling class and unilateral control of the means of production.

the neck cares not the color of the boot
