First post on my dumb blog, yay!
Not sure what to say...maybe I should start with my philosophy?
Ugh, I hate that term, "philosophy". To me, philosophy is almost completely irrelevant. I don't need to study hundreds of pages of abstract theory written by some old white guys hundreds of years ago. I certainly don't need to waste time on that when I can already plainly see what's wrong with the world. That brings me to my next point - C O M M U N I S M ! ! ! oOoOoOoOoO spooky commies comin to take your xbox, oh no! But to be serious now, the different things you've heard about communism will have varied greatly depending on who you heard them from.
I don't know what you, the reader, are, in terms of political belief. If you're curious about mine, I can present to you terms to research - although if you're seriously interested in communist theory, I have plenty of other reading recommendations for later. Anyway, I am a Libertarian Marxist, which means I agree with the theories of Karl Marx. The "Libertarian" part of the label means I put emphasis on the anti-authoritarian, humanist aspects of Marx's theory. If you're not already acquainted with socialist terminology, then you may be surprised to learn that in leftist circles, "libertarian" does not mean the anti-government, conservative ideology found in the United States - in fact, the word "libertarian" was originally used by many schools of anti-authoritarian anarchist and socialist thought. So when I call myself a Libertarian Marxist, keep in mind that I am not referring to the conservative movement's co-opting of the term. Anyway, I agree most with Libertarian Marxism because I don't particularly like any later interpretations of and additions to it. I'll make another post about this eventually, but if you want a much longer explanation of my theories, I've written a little piece, which can be found here https://justpaste.it/1grdo
The rest of my posts will assume you're already familiar with leftism, so if you're looking for an introduction blog, this probably isn't the best place to learn. But, if you think it's interesting, then keep on the lookout for new posts.
Long live the Revolution!
