Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you think people misunderstand what socialist democracies look like?
5·2 months agoTo be clear there is no such thing as “socialist” or “capitalist” policy, both are merely modes of production, where socialism is where public ownership dominates and workers control the state, and capitalism is where private ownership dominates and the capital-owners control the state. In other words, socialism is a workers’ dictatorship, capitalism is a dictatorship of capital. Canada falls under the capitalist mode of production. Although welfare is a very big part of socialist theory.

I just finished reading this article today a few hours ago! it felt like such an eerily perfect dissection of liberals it is incredible impressive, it doesn’t reduce their annoyance but it does provide an easier way to deal with it

The proletariat is the majority in most if not all societies, arguing the dictatorship of the proletariat is undemocratic merely because the word “dictatorship” doesn’t make sense. Democracy is [ideally, not what it is in practice] is a dictatorship of the majority, and the proletariat are the majority, surely you see how saying democracy is undemocratic makes no sense.
States are instruments of oppression weilded by classes, they are all “dictatorships” in the sense that a class oppresses the other; the question in state is, is it the capitalists oppressing the working class, or the other way around

Biggest supporters of Palestine? So they’re funding Palestinian resistance militias and sanctioning Israel? 🤔
Even then if that happened (it will not) it’s been two fucking years of full-throated EU support to Israel and its genocide, Kaja is scum. Saving face will not work.

These are all the flags of a local communist party, though. Where are the Chinese flags?
Under socialism, your video games WILL be woke, chuds.

And those that haven’t, have been thrown onto the shoulders of the global south for them to suffer and be robbed. Capitalism has never worked.

This thread is explicitly about imperialist backing in the recent protests, not just protests in general. We weren’t talking about the kurdish conflict or anything, so it’s weird for your original comment to mock people for correctly accusing heavy foreign involvement.
My top comment was snark-ish, so I’ll elaborate my real positions here:
I think many of the protestors are real, and unrest is not fully foreign. More specifically, they are protesting about heavy economic turmoil and internal repression. The latter is definitely real and I do not deny that, and so is the former. But a large part of the economic struggle in Iran is imposed by heavy sanctions and wars (this war already happened last year!) by the US and Israel, to overthrow the state for their own interests. US using sanctions in this way is documented in many countries, and they are using the natural unrest, throwing oil in the fire by both waging more war and strangling the economy further. Their goal is to overthrow the state and either install a western-friendly state that sells away its natural resources at the expense of their people, or another Libya. Iran is the only nation in the region actively resisting Israeli-American bloodthirst, and have been dreaming of this war for decades.
Overthrowing Iran (at least, now) would serve Israel/American imperialism, and would leave Israel unopposed to butcher the north of the region freely. Reality is not neatly isolated into compartments, something like this would have consequences and US/Israeli would rabidly seize the opportunity.
Hope that made sense








Also, Afghanistan isn’t even part of the middle east too lmao, so it’s wrong twice
