The ideals of Marx were betrayed by the Leninist-Stalinist dogs.

The final stage of Communism was meant to be a stateless/classless society, but the Bolshevik rogues hijacked those noble ideals and installed a perpetual dictatorship of the proletariat that was only Communist in name. While the old bourgeoisie was overthrown, the Nomenklatura only replaced them in the hierarchy whilst paying lip service to the original ideals of Marx. The so called communist regimes can be more accurately described as degenerated workers' states, especially after the liquidation of the Trotskyites.

Anarchists believe the state to be an inherently oppressive system, an artificial concept that limits our freedoms and seeks only to benefit the elites of society while exploiting the masses. We share the same ends as the Marxists, but we disagree vehemently on the means to that end.

Our economic policies are somewhat different as well. We believe in volunteer associations and cooperatives, while ending the oppressive capitalist system that was enforced by the state. Any economic system based on wage labor and private property requires a coercive state apparatus to enforce property rights and to maintain unequal economic relationships that inevitably arise from differences in wages or amount of property, thus we also believe in the abolition of private property. Production and consumption would be entirely self-regulated, and all would own the means of production. It's the closest thing to the ideal of "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need" :)

Good luck! You work construction or something?

I screwed up whallahi I graduated in June and didn't look for a job or internship right away because I I spend five years in uni
doing full fall/winter/and summer course loads back to back and wanted some time off. Most of my work experiences have been year long volunteer positions with charities/non-profits.
I haven't been able to find anything in that field but a shitty job so far. I'm super bummed, I'm going to be applying for grad school/law school this upcoming cycle. Had dinner with one of my professors and his wife they really pepped me up.

Although I agree with the notion that Marxism has been hijacked, you seem to still be stuck in the mindset that the state must exist. Otherwise, I see no possible way to guarantee that "all would own the means of production" nor a method for "the abolition of private property". Anarchism as you've described, is not anarchism. To force a hand to do or refrain from an act, implies overbearing laws and systems. Seems just as oppressive as any other ideology. If one chooses to work for a wage he feels will allow him to accumulate wealth given his living standards, who is to say that he must not or cannot do this? Who is to say private property is, in a sense, illegal? This is the State.

State intervention is the only method to assure the execution of what you've presented. Any ideal that guarantees anything is a system requiring enforcement. Abolishing wealth and property, or to guarantee an equal amount for all is both senseless and impossible. The State exists simply to maintain a population size and efficiency. The State allows for coercion and monopolization in order to guarantee a manageable, drudging, and reliant populous. Without coercion and monopolization, the State would be overthrown by those who seek wealth through any means and to no ends. The State continues to exist through taxing the wages and properties of the masses for the assumed guarantee of protection of liberties. Yet, it is the State that is the greatest enemy of liberties. We run to the hand that beats us.

The accumulation of wealth is an inevitable and undeniable necessity for self-reliance and existence. It is the State that has tarnished its good nature.

You guys are lazy mofos, I never call in sick, once I got into a physical confrontation(Not my fault) at work and they gave me a day off, that`s about it. I once worked 3 months with no a single day off, 7 days a week, it almost killed so I had to take 2 weeks off and go on a well deserved holiday.

I know your feelings hon. I have been stress free for 2 years now. Being unemployed is a miracle and therapy for the brain walaahi. I can guarantee u that -- me being off work for two years has contributed to a heathy brain. If i had to do a brain MRI scan-- the doctors will declare a miracle. :up: Good luck on being fired Nanny! :clap: :clap: :clap:

:shock:


Anarcho-capitalism is a contradiction in terms. Capitalism is an inherently authoritarian and hierarchical system, and any wealth accumulation as a result of oppressive and exploitative wage slavery runs contrary to the very principles of anarchy. Despite being in conflict with the state, I acknowledge its role in actually limiting the power of corporations who would otherwise be free to engage in harmful business practices solely for profit. You would replace the state with the very bourgeois masters we seek to free ourselves from, in essence replacing one oppressor for another.

We believe that liberty without socialism is privilege and injustice, and that socialism without liberty is slavery and brutality. We believe in volunteer associations run on the principles of direct democracy, without coercion or force. Individuals have the right of disassociation, differing us from the so called Marxists. The means of production do not belong to any individuals, but must be shared equitably by all. "Private" property is theft legitimized, painting the bosses who accumulate their wealth through the exploitation of workers as legitimate proprietors.

Anarcho-communism is the future 8-)
