Re: [Marxism] Communist conspiracy



What a crappy unmaterialist analysis:
________________

" Like virtually all the nationalist regimes and tendencies that emerged in
the postwar period, Castroism has rested on a set of myths concerning its
own origins and development. Such mythologizing is inevitable, given the
class character of these movements, resting as they do upon the petty
bourgeoisie and the national bourgeoisie, while claiming to represent the
interests of the oppressed masses."
_________________

Come one. The "Castro regime" unlike other nationalist regimes has rested
not on myths, but on the physical expropriation of the bourgeoisie, an
action made necessary by the bourgeoisie, local and international,
themselves; and an action made possible only by the existence of the Soviet
Union.

Could someone please point to a bourgeoisie in Cuba, a bourgeoisie
exercising its power to organize production according to the demands of
capital for profit, for capitalist accumulation? And if we can't
