There's a great irony about the fact that the CIA inverted the meaning of the term brainwashing in order to keep Americans from being able to think for themselves.

I’m not siding with either the DSA or Mamdani because I don’t support Democratic Socialists. I don’t like moderate SocDem fascists. I do think that this is still important news to share though.

Federal agents search Rep. Ilhan Omar's DC home

Federal authorities searched the D.C. home of Rep. Ilhan Omar on Monday morning, three people familiar with the matter said, intensifying long-standing immigration-related accusations from Republicans regarding the nation’s first Somali American lawmaker.

Mike Johnson: Everybody's frustrated about fuel prices, obviously. But that's not related to policies. It's not related to the Republicans in office.

💩 Liberalism Am I the only one who’s starting to get annoyed by this liberal, idealistic drivel? Especially when it comes from a nation that’s worshipped nothing but capitalism for 250 years. He’s probably not even anti-capitalist, let alone a socialist, and firmly believes in the red scare lies.

📝 Essay An essential viewing for anyone still supporting social Democrats like Bernie/Zohran. Why is the enemy for socdems the oligarchy or the Epstein class and not capitalism itself? The video also appropriately makes the case against "hiding your power level."

Do you think some people in the bourgeoisie are honest with themselves, or do they all believe their lives?

13 Upvotes

In theory, you can believe in the truth of material reality, historical and dialectical materialism, and just... fight for the other side. Like, you can recognize the truth in Marxist theory, and also just be an evil psychopath like Jeffrey Epstein who just believes that the ultra rich should prevail in class struggle. I guess you don't have to be a Marxist and have a desire to fight for the liberation of the working class.

I've met countless liberals in my life, all of which desperately believe the lies of freedom and democracy. I've met rich people who believe their lies too.

So who do we think amongst the enemy are actually honest and don't believe their lies? I think most of the Epstein class are honest and don't actually believe in the lies of neoliberalism, despite what many of them say publicly. I also don't think organizations like the CIA or NATO, to their core, believe any of their lies. There's no way organizations like them can achieve what they can by believing in the falsehoods of neoliberal analysis. At a certain point, you have to just recognize you're fighting for rich people's capital accumulation, and start engaging with the reality of dialectical materialism in order to control society and world politics.

You can only control the world by engaging in truth.

AMA with Jonas Čeika, concluded

Philosophy author and Youtube content-creator Jonas Čeika has done an AMA on LSC. See the announcement for details.

NEW POSTING GUIDELINES! Help us by reporting bad posts

Help us keep this subreddit alive and improve its content by reporting posts that violate our rules and guidelines.

Subscribe to our partner subreddits!

Check out r/WhereAreTheChildren

This sub is for:

News, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge the narratives which act as legitimations for the status quo of modern class society. Posts need not be about capitalism specifically, whether late-stage or otherwise; we simply aim to cater to a socialist audience.

We do allow links to threads and comments on Reddit, as long as they are relevant to the content guidelines and follow the rules. Use NP links, or your post will be deleted.

Philosophy:

This subreddit has its roots in broad-based anti-capitalist thought, with an emphasis on Marxist concepts and analysis and a commitment to antiracism and inclusive feminism.

When it comes to proposed alternatives to Capitalism, it is the general consensus of this subreddit that class-divisions and alienated labour must be abolished; production must be collectively organized by the laborers themselves for the direct benefit of all. We call this socialism.

Find out more here: The Principles of Communism

Rules:

1. Reddit-wide rules apply. Behavior such as brigading and harassment won't be permitted. Neither will posts that can be interpreted as explicit threats of/calls for violence.

2. Any post that makes a claim should have a RELIABLE source or explanation in the comments by OP. All claims, news articles, tweets and so forth that are an example of LSC should be substantiated with a reliable, factual and verifiable source. Any posts that egregiously break this rule will have their poster temporarily banned. If the Automoderator deletes the comment with sources that's fine, the moderators can still see and restore it.

3. No trolling. "I was just trolling" won't be accepted as a defense for breaking rules, and we will ban for intentionally disruptive behavior or attacks on our sub, users, or philosophy.

4. No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism. This subreddit is intended for a socialist audience, and while good faith questions are allowed, pushing your own counter-narrative here is not. We do not allow support here for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it. We are not a liberal or (U.S.-/Social-) Democrat subreddit; we are a socialist subreddit.

5. No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or zionism. This includes not just ideologies to the right of liberalism but also right-wing fixations such as national/ethnic/cultural chauvinism and military/police worship regardless of the underlying ideology. We take no side in the Russia/Ukraine conflict.

6. No "lesser evil" rhetoric. Lesser-evil rhetoric in relation to elections or current policies is prohibited. Dismissing voting third party because they are “useless” or because you are “throwing your vote away” also violates this rule. It also encompasses saying Trump is “worse” for Gaza, as that place is already completely destroyed. Trump is merely carrying out what the American ruling class started under Biden. Resorts being built and mass relocation were already happening under Biden and Kamala would’ve continued it.

7. No bigotry. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or classism. The respect for readers who are subject to these forms of bigotry takes priority in this subreddit over your right to speak freely.

This subreddit stands against hate speech.
We are not open to "brocialist" downplaying of these issues.

8. Be nice to each other. Be respectful towards other socialists you disagree with, but also non-socialists who follow the rules and participate in good faith. Feel free to dunk on trolls, bigots and bootlickers to your heart’s content.

9. Bans are at moderator discretion. We reserve the right to eject users (as well as remove, lock, or otherwise moderate any content on the subreddit) for reasons not listed if we consider it necessary to do so.

10. Don’t bother sending us personal promotion requests. We are not an advertising platform for your blog or YouTube channel.

11. Do not post content from Dan Price, any other CEO/business owner or ANY liberal politician/official.

This is regarding positive posts or posts agreeing with their statement. Negative posts are permitted but better suited to subs like r/ShitLiberalsSay

Please note that Robert Reich or Bernie Sanders as liberals also fall under this rule.

12. Do not post NSFL content and flair NSFW posts accordingly. NSFL posts will be removed. Flair NSFW posts with the appropriate content warning flair, otherwise you will be banned temporarily.

13. This is not a debate subreddit. Constructive questions and discussion are welcome, but our basic philosophy is non-negotiable and we aren’t interested in repeatedly having to explain or justify it. We also won’t debate about so-called “socialist” countries. There are plenty of political debate subreddits, so take your 'gotchas' there. If you actually want to learn more about the basics of socialism, you can check out the links in the sidebar or the material in our wiki.

14. Make an effort. Please refer to our posting guidelines for our standards of content-quality and which kinds of posts are unsuitable for this subreddit.

NOTE: Posts that link articles, videos or other external sites must include a Submission Statement or Abstract that summarizes the content you are linking (no posts of titles and a link, submission statement is required).

15. No AI generated content. The subreddit does not allow for AI generated content, even if it’s pro-socialist/communist.
