Re: [Marxism] Getting Over State Socialism's Crimes

[Benjamin Morgan <foreverblaze89@xxxxxxxxx>]

comrade Ben:
   
  While analyzing the current political strata of the left you must argue that 
they didn't choose failure! have you read the Empire by Michael Hardt and 
Antonio Negri's "Empire" post industrial capitalist states are forming one big 
globalized empire through information technology. The left, although resilient, 
has yet to gain the worker base necessary to efficiently struggle for true 
socialism; this is for several reasons. First, without all the massive 
industries and with outsourcing the capitalist exploit Latin America, Africa, 
and the third world outside of the public eye. As we all know the bourgeois 
control the entirety of the media playing up Taiwanese sweat shops isn't good 
for "business". Second, Media is loosing territorial confines so covert 
anti-left messages, basically pro-western media is subsuming the globe that's 
why socialist states like China attempt to regulate media; although, it's 
failing when people in China are listening to fucking rap music teaching
 them capitalism while attempting to fuck up the infrastructure of there 
society. Rogers right, places like Argentina and Venezuela's left have made 
great strides. Even Americans can't deny that although Cuba is poor poverty 
rates are negligible. What we need is a revitalization of the left. I believe 
that critical pedagogy can be gradually instilled within society and that if we 
can teach our children another way of learning in time we can establish to say 
a counter empire that can ameliorate socialism misconceptions in the status 
quo.
