hello everyone - you may know me as @DylanMc6@hexbear.net. just recently, i got banned from hexbear for “history of repeating US state department talking points, anti-socialism and zionism”, as well as possible “fedposting”.

let me clarify that although i strongly support socialism and the ideas of liberating people from their corporate overlords, i am still learning about this. if anything that i’ve said on hexbear are considered “us state department talking points”, as well as “antisocialism”, “zionism” and even “fedposting” by the hexbear mods in any way, i sincerely apologize.

i personally disagree with stalinism, i mostly prefer the more libertarian forms of communism (like council communism, for example), but i’m open to hearing any and all perspectives from all parts of the socialist spectrum, whether it be marxism, leninism, stalinism/marxism-leninism, trotskyism, de leonism, social democracy, democratic socialism, georgism, libertarian socialism, market socialism, syndicalism, anarcho-communism, and even maoism and the likes.

i myself support a fusion of left-libertarianism, market socialism, georgism and de leonism. i’m also NOT a federal agent, i do NOT intend on entrapping people, and i oppose the actions of ice agents, as they are using force.

to any hexbear admin or mod, i apologize for any comment that i’ve made that can be seen as “repeating US state department talking points, antisocialism and zionism”

i really hope this clears that up.

    Same I don’t like stalinism and prefer other forms of communism.

    I don’t want to put tags on me. I think communism should be global, but i would like It in a sorta federated way, like the soviets in Russia that were councils of workers wich Need to be all connected but Also indipendent, without a “central Power”. My view on this Is still very blurry so dont take anything i said before.

    Sorry for the disturb.

    The reason is because you do things like list a bunch of contradictory positions you hold, and the extent of your analysis is “they sound good,” rather than a strong grounding in theory and learning from what actually works. This is on top of your demonization of Marxism-Leninism as “Stalinism,” and general opposition to actually existing socialism, which was repeated.

    If you’re genuine, I made an introductory Marxist-Leninist reading list. Check out section 0a, it will give you an excellent primer on why we Marxist-Leninists support Marxism-Leninism and actually existing socialist states, and don’t just add a bunch of contradictory positions to our shopping carts and form a brand new ideology.

      1. again, i’m just learning - my socialist views are a fusion of market socialism, welfarism, georgism, left-libertarianism and an element of de leonism (the party-union/dual power part) and can be described as “centrist socialism”.
      2. what do you mean “actually existing socialism”? if you mean democratic socialism and the likes, i actually support democratic socialism. however, if you mean the socialism supported by china, north korea, laos, vietnam and such, here are my views:

      china: technically state capitalism, but their brand of market socialism is good - beautiful scenery

      north korea: juche, very isolationist

      laos: pretty good, beautiful scenery

      vietnam: also pretty good

      1. in case i lose focus quickly while reading any of those books, are there any fun and short videos on marxism-leninism that are grounded on theory?

        1. I don’t think your current strategy of just throwing together whatever sounds good to you at the time has any chance of working in real life.

        2. Actually existing socialism refers to places like the PRC, Cuba, former USSR, Vietnam, Laos, DPRK, etc, where public ownership is the principle aspect of the economy. The PRC has markets, but as public ownership is the principle aspect and the working class is in control of the state it is a socialist country. State capitalism would be more like Singapore, or the ROK.

        3. Videos generally aren’t the best. There are often audiobooks that are helpful.

          well i think i DIDN’T put anything in my comments that resemble opposition to actually existing socialism - the dprk is very authoritarian and isolationist, but china, cuba, vietnam, laos and such are pretty good countries (beautiful scenery and such). north korea’s scenery is also pretty beautiful, especially mount paektu.

          the reason why i called china state capitalism is because much of the economy is state-owned and since the late-1980s runs on a market economy.

            The DPRK is “authoritarian” against capitalists and landlords, and is incredibly demonized by the west. China having markets does not make it state capitalism, state capitalism refers to economies where private ownership is the principle aspect and the state dominated by capitalists, with strong state control over the economy. China is socialist.
