In history, Marxists build societies while social democrats win elections. Why is this? Why is there such a strong dividing line between success and reform?
Simply put: Dignity.
(Also a bunch of bullshit about science but let’s go with some cultural commentary today alright?)
I know this is not a popular way to start an article: But do you know what I like about Mussolini?
(Adding a few line breaks here for dramatic suspense.)
I like his body language, and how he presents himself. He’s confident, and commands respect, he moves in a determined way like a guy who knows what he’s doing.
(Turns out he had no idea what he was doing, guy got bulldozed by the Soviets, but he sure looked like he did.)
Do you know why? Because Mussolini was an aristocrat who impersonated working class people in order to infiltrate the trade unions.
He looked like he knew what he was doing because he was a spy, I know this, because I have spy training. My father was a spy, technically he was a counter-spy; A spy who spies on other spies, a double-spy if you will. Not to be confused with a double agent, although he did once catch a double agent.
Anyhow, after school I’d go with him to his workplace, and he’d teach me the ins and outs of our family trade. Everything from how to shadow an enemy of the state, to the ins and outs — in every sense of the word — of killing a man with a bayonet.
I had a proper Marxist childhood. Two jabs, and then a slash. You always jab first, softens them up and slows them down a bit. First jab is a feign, second jab goes in. Then you employ the slash as a coup de grace, gets the job done.
Unless you’re using an entrenchment tool, then all you really need to know is that the flat end is the stun setting and the not so flat end is for when things get personal.
He also taught me about sensitivity training and humanism. About how instead of torturing a man, you should blackmail him into surrendering his secrets.
This training was invaluable to me growing up, I once took out the school bully with a Judo flip.
Point is, sometimes impersonation tells us more about ourselves than we care to realise. Mussolini managed to infiltrate the workers by expressing our most admirable traits whilst presenting his own abhorrent ideas. Like stealing medical stationary, and using it to send bomb threats to a care home.
This was Mussolini’s formula of political theatrics.
I want the best of both worlds in this regard. I want the teachings of Lenin, but I also want him to have the mannerisms and spirit of a cartoonish Italian patriarch.
Imagine the workers marching on Moscow, as the white army is mobilised by the tsar to open fire upon the unarmed crowd of labour unions, only to be met with:
“Ey! I’m walkin’ over here you mook! What? What?! You think you’re better than me? Geeet outta here why don’t you?!
Can you believe this guy? Am I the only one seeing this?
This fuckin’ guy let me tell you.
What’s with this? What’s going on here even? You seeing this? Look at this.
Look at this fucking guy. Look what he’s doing. See this bullshit? Look at all this bullshit.
Unbelievable. I cannot believe this. Can you believe this?
Who the fuck does this guy think he is?”
- Vladimir Italy Lenin
That’s the line of reason that workers have expressed in inner monologues since the first king sat on the first throne. Mussolini appropriated this in order to resonate with the workers. He failed, but his theatrics are revealing nonetheless.
Fascism stole a lot from the working class in an effort to present itself as majoritarian.
And liberals used this as an opportunity to stigmatise the dignified worker. Suddenly things like discipline, community, shared values, intellectualism, pluralism, solidarity, strength and self-improvement were demonised as “authoritarian” or “fascist.”
Liberals stereotype fascists as “jackboots” and “goose steppers.” But you know who goose stepped wearing jackboots in 1946? Red Army veterans, in the Soviet victory parade. But those jackboots scare the liberals twice as much as they do the fascists. Because the Soviet war on fascism was a war on slavery.
And when liberals realised this, they got a bit hot under the collar, because if the Red Army is killing slavers, then they might be coming for the liberals next.
Frantz Fanon talked about how the loss of privilege feels a lot like oppression, and the cold war hysteria purported by the propaganda written by the pardoned SS war criminals of the West German Gehlen organisation; The primary institution of US covert intelligence in their illegal occupation of Europe, speaks volumes to this.
Apparently employing the literal Gestapo to fight under your flag is democracy, just as long as they put on some loafers.
That’s an idiotic statement; That’s the idiotic notions of idiots. I shouldn’t even dignify such a thought with a response, it should be branded with the quiet disdain of the gentle worker. But alas, people are gullible and this is a dangerous idea.
Obviously, OBVIOUSLY, our class needs a military tradition. Obviously we need a sense of creed and duty to our cause. We need a shared notion that can be presented into mandate, and we do not have to meeken ourselves in this process.
The reason why the Red Army tradition grew into liberation across the world, in China, in Viet Nam, in Tibet, in Mongolia, in Burkina Faso, in Mozambique, in Angola, in Iraq, in Palestine, in Yugoslavia, in the Philippines, in Columbia, in Cuba, in Venezuela, in Mexico, in Korea, in Laos, and in all manner of places, is because of our history.
Because the Red Army Wins. Because Marxism Wins. Because it is the military tradition of victory against all odds. Liberals want to demoralise us in this, they don’t want us to feel the spirit of worker’s victory across the word, they don’t want us to feel the spectre of communism hovering over us.
So they come up with counter culture that turns us into ragged losers. They tell us that torn jeans and heroin is real rebellion. That spending 800 dollars on clothes that permit us to impersonate homeless people isn’t vehemently fucked up. That the real winners are losers. That our role models should be the battered idealists of history. That we should aspire to get murdered like Romantical saints.
Suddenly the Nestor Makhnos and the Rosa Luxemburgs of history become marketable to capitalism. Nestor and Rosa were admirable people, but to aspire to their fates is pathetic. Nestor was betrayed by his own commanders, who carried out unprovoked attacks against the Soviets in spite of Nestor’s objections.
Rosa was shot and thrown into a lake by the same social democrats who now plaster her face all over their stupid posters all across the many nations in Europe whereupon the ingestion of siracha prompts people to call poison control.
Liberals tells us that the true Marxists were the ones that they’re capable of killing. Don’t fall for it. God save the red republics of the world, and may their numbers swell across history. God save our red army veterans, from China, to Moscow, to Kursk, to Afghanistan. God save the working people, and may every king and parliamentarian tremble at our anthems!
