I agree with everything here. But there is a consideration we need to note.
Capitalism has always been destructive, but it is only in modern times that it is threatening all of us with final destruction. Not just its WMDs, but the climate crisis too.—————————————-
Right-wing nationalists and leftists do not see the ecological disaster that is being produced by the war in Iran and the Strait; they are just waving the flags of nationalism and the so-called revolutionary war.
Native Americans, called savages, connected their own natures to the earth, space, and animals, and they did not know anything about natural sciences or astrophysics.
Probably thousands of sea animals have died, and the seabed has been completely damaged by the bombardment and the petroleum spill in the sea; the ships are spreading diseases because many organisms are attached to the bottom of the maritime ships. Still, many people believe that this is a religious war instead of being an economic war between the ruling class; we continue believing in witchcraft; the religious wars of the past were also economic.
On the island of Vieques, the US armed forces use depleted uranium and lead for military exercises, and the people from the island have cancer, the animals have mutated, and still many people think that the ecological disaster is a hoax.
I was in a right-wing forum; it is sad to listen to the comments of so many people who have been completely brainwashed by the ruling class regarding the ecological disaster. The rich are walking happily to the banks, and poor workers are living from paycheck to paycheck; if they miss one check their will go bankrupt.
We are not as modern as we claim to be; many peasants take better care of the land and the animals than many intellectuals who think that they know everything, and many peasants have a better daily diet, and they grow their own food.
Most of the so-called gurus do not know that we also come from the animal world; humans share 98.7% of our DNA with chimpanzees, some animals are stronger than us and are immune to many diseases, and a small mosquito can kill us by spreading diseases. Many people do not understand that COVID was transmitted from animals to humans, but they are supporting conspiracy theories spread by the capitalist class.
Modern scientists are modifying the hearts of pigs to be transplanted to human beings, and pretty soon it is going to be perfect, and the transplants are going to be successful without any rejection; pigs’ hearts are similar to human hearts.
We are still influenced by religion and superstition, and there is a shortage of human donations because we think that our bodies came from god; we are not so ideologically advanced.
To acquire socialist consciousness, we must understand the logic of capitalism first, understand our own world and then we can acquire socialist consciousness; it does not come automatically. The left-wingers think that class consciousness will come by adopting their distorted views; they also need a political exorcism
The USA working class is not ideologically ready, at least to elect a social democratic government, but in Europe the workers have elected several social democratic governments. Social democracy was founded in Germany.
It shows the ideological grip that the ruling class has on the consciousness of the whole working class; most of the social democrats’ candidates are descendants of workers from other countries, including muslims and Buddhists
Costa Rica is a small country in Central America; workers have elected several right-wing social democratic governments without so much fanfare as the MAGA movement
In Uruguay, the working class approved measures like abortion, same-sex marriage, secular education, free medical services, free education and textbooks; in the USA, they are called communist measures. The ex president that passed those social democrats measure was a member of the Tupamaros; Dilma Rousseff, ex-president of Brazil, was a member of a guerrilla organisation
More than 51% of the population in Uruguay are atheists, and in the USA, workers have not been able to move away from Calvinism and Adventism; religion is also a reflection of the working class oppression
The failure of state capitalism in Venezuela has motivated several organisations to question the character of the so-called workers’ state, or state capitalism.
And the stance of Cuba is motivating workers to question Castroism and Guevarism, which has been a heavy ideological burden within the Latin American working class.
In Mexico, there is a movement that is questioning the real character of capitalism and the real character of state capitalism and Bolshevik socialism.
It is not like the left communists who are Leninist with other stripes; they are rejecting old conceptions completely.
The arrival of the right-wing populists will motivate people to question capitalism from the point of view of both tendencies.
If the Trotskyists win the election in Argentina, it is going to be the failure of Trotskyism, and they will be forced to adopt a stance similar to the Peronists.
Argentina is the only country in Latin America where the Trotskyists are very popular, and they have made many conciliatory mistakes and stand out in the region, including support for dictators and interclass disputes
The economic reality has already shown that anarcho-capitalism is just a fallacy; capitalism without a state apparatus can not be established; it is the same repressive state, and workers are being beaten up in the streets.

Socialism is not inevitable either.
Workers in the so-called third-world country ( it is not an economic term ) are questioning capitalism more than workers in advanced, developed countries, and more organisations are taking a similar stance to the socialist party. And some have rejected Leninism and sovietism
One of the negative factors has been nationalism due to the influence of the Leninists and the national liberation movement, but the failure of those movements and the global expansion of capitalism have motivated many workers to question those points of view.
In the USA, workers have been poisoned for a long period of time by nationalism and patriotism, and with the arrival of right-wing populism, that factor has increased more lately, but it is changing due to the stance on foreign workers; even more, the capitalist class of both tendencies are scared of the social democrats, and socialism is not a dirty word among young people like in prior epochs.
The reality, instead of a romantic pipe dream, is that Marx thought the working class was going to rebel against the capitalist class instead of supporting them; probably, in his time was correct because the workers were rebelling against oppression. In Capital, one of its prefaces, it says that the working class was reading Marx’s Capital; in some places, mentioning Marx or Marx’s Capital is a capital sin.
I am always reading inside my house and outside of my house, and wherever I go, I take socialist books; the trunk of my car is like a library. I entered a restaurant, and I was reading a book written by Engels, and a couple of guys violently told me that I was reading diabolical literature. Now, capitalists and workers are making anti communist propagandas, it is getting like the time of McCarthy.
Yesterday Trump had a convention meeting, and everybody was shouting to kill other human beings. I grew up in a small town that the Americans call a shit hole, and I never heard that crap from anybody, including the rich of the town, and in my university the young people were always fighting for the same cause, in the Ghettos of NYC, where many illusory petit bourgeoisie are saying that they are full of criminals. I did not hear that either.
The case of the socialist party is different because it had the background of workers who had class consciousness, but in other places around the world, most organisations did not inherit the same conditions, and many of them have capitulated to the bourgeois class too.
At present, everything is dead. I remember the old days when we had socialist conferences all over, people selling socialist newspapers in different locations, socialist bookstores all over the cities, but now we just have a bunch of fanatic nationalists carrying signs to kill other human beings, and religious fanatics shouting in the corners about the end of time. In many forums, you have to be careful; otherwise, you are going to find a brown shirt like in the old days of Germany.
The philosopher Raya Dunayevskaya wrote that the world was going to experience an ideological retrogression, but I would prefer to live in the old days, in the time of my youth, when we thought that a new world was possible to establish; we were always reading, and our heroes were not leaders; our “heroes” were Marx and Engels.
Right now, most people do not think that we can establish a better world, and they are supporting dictators and authoritarian leaders, and nobody is reading anything, including comic books; everybody is an expert on nothing and bootlicking.
Karl Marx and Engels overestimated the working class; they never thought that the world working class was going to support their own class enemies. Warren Buffett said that there is class struggle and that his class is winning that war, and he is correct because the capitalist class has more class consciousness than the working class.
In my youth, we were afraid of the capitalist class and their lynchmen, but now we must be careful with the capitalists and many members of the working class who also want their class brothers and sisters to be killed. In clinical psychology class, we studied the bizarre personality and at present many bizarre personalities fit that description; it is like a mental disease, similar to the bizarre Superman

President Donald Trump offered a check or political payback of 5,000 dollars to every American citizen if the Republicans win the midterm election. It is just a desperate move to save the GOP and himself; it is like the dividend distribution of a corporation, which might cost more than 1.3 trillion dollars

Earlier this summer, self-styled Secretary of War Pete Hegseth posted a fitness challenge video that offers an apt representation of the current state of the U.S. military. The video shows Hegseth lifting weights at the infamous Guantánamo Bay prison on occupied Cuban land. The caption claims that he “CRUSHED 44 reps on the bench,” but the video was largely mocked for Hegseth’s poor lifting form and his twitching legs as he clearly struggles to rack the barbell.
Like the video, which boasts of strength while clearly depicting weakness, the Trump administration’s “peace through strength” agenda is revealing to the entire world the growing frailty of U.S. imperialism and, with it, the crisis facing the U.S. military.
There is a shortage of wild sardines due to overfishing and climate change.
A female sardine can lay thousands of eggs, and sardines have a special diet that can only be found in the ocean.
During the COVID shutdown, many species were multiplying rapidly, and some that were in the process of extinction came back in great numbers. They wandered into quiet cities; they are scared of humans
Animals cannot live in peace in this society.
How long are we going to continue supporting this stupid economic system?
The natives american protected the salmon, the oceans and the rivers, and now the fish farmers are adding artificial colours to the salmon diet, and they were called savages.
The real colour of the salmon is provided by the river’s and ocean’s nutrients. Salmon can live in both environments.
Personally, I do not buy or eat farmed fish
He bombs dropped in Japan were scientists experiments made on a civil population with limited consequences and the Japanese were already defeated and those two cities were preserved the rest of Japan was completely destroyed
