These people still exist?
With Red China holding the Olympics and the Russians being thuggish assholes in Georgia, I thought I'd peruse the dpud archives for this old post. Just for kicks, like. I mean, we've got the End of History going for us, right? It's not like there are still some Commie holdouts (other than North Korea, Cuba, and here in California), are there?
Well, I took a look at the blog of the guy who posted that video, and it's a humdinger:
Oh, what? Sorry about that! I passed out there, and my head hit the keyboard.
Seriously, I get why the people on top are attracted to Communism, seeing as how they get the power under the "Some animals are more equal than others" type paradigm, but how do the regular Worker and Peasant types stay awake during the speeches and re-education sessions?
Oh, that's right. The fear of getting shot or sent off to die in a labor camp. I can see how that could be a powerful motivator.

Well, I took a look at the blog of the guy who posted that video, and it's a humdinger:
One of the most anemic attacks on Maoism-Third Worldism, in a sea of only anemic attacks, goes this way: First Worlders can’t be parasites, can’t be enemies of the world majority, can’t be not-proletarians because they then, among other things, wouldn’t be revolutionary … so there wouldn’t be anything for First World “revolutionaries†to do. So Maoists-Third Worldists get accused of “despair†and “giving up on the struggle.†We get accused of putting so-called First Worldist “revolutionaries†out of a job. Such attacks are lame in both legs. First, a correct class analysis does not proceed from the needs of these fake “communists†for meaningful employment. A correct class analysis proceeds from the demand of the international proletariat for a true materialist accounting of friends and enemies. Currently, the correct international class analysis is that First Worlders are objectively the undeniable enemy of the Third World. Secondly, this attack is lame in claiming that Maoists-Third Worldists of First World origin, with their “own†populations as enemy, have therefore precious little to keep themselves occupied besides a bit of thumb twiddling now and then. The most cursory glance at the concrete manifestations of Maoism-Third Worldism today gives the lie to that lame First Worldist claim.6hycfrtgbikkpofjw'VEAIOPRJVGBFRVTFVBGVNFVTGBBTGFVTFLLPOITGHDDSAS
