Why do a lot of Marxists seem to rely heavily on straw-man arguments in order to make a point? For example, they will often claim that ‘Fascism is Capitalism in decline’, even though Fascism/National Socialism rejects both ideologies for their emphasis on materialism and fought against both Liberal Capitalism and Marxist Socialism during WW2.
This video is by a midwit Marxist called ‘Second Thought’, who is now proclaiming that if you are a centrist, you are now secretly serving the Right-wing. >How "Moderates" Serve The Right: m.youtube.com/watch?v=fZ4nvCVAGw0
These aren’t real thoughts. These are rhetorical tools used by radicals.
Daniel Gray
not a good explanation that does nothing to explain op pseud
Gabriel Adams
>rejects both ideologies Because they enact the things that marxism calls capitalism (the structure of social relationships based on production - landlord/tenant, owner/worker, etc. this is capitalism).
Also the fact that historically the capitalists facing socialist uprisings side with the fascists.
Joshua Brooks
Oh so you are actually retarded then. Bless your heart.
Angel Johnson
Socialists also sided with the fascists though. The SPD had a greater turnover rate to the NSDAP than the liberal parties.

They're not basing their argumentation on truth just (((persuasion))). Everything they say is a quick n dirty lie desu. The reason why they have 180-220 word memes is that they need to set the stage first to deliver the final punchline.
You can only accept Marxism if you already agree with it if are a otherwise shallow dupe. Had to rescue my older cousin out of it, thank God it worked.
Andrew Baker
He is unironically right. A leftist of 20 years ago is now called a radical far right extremist. Look, sexually hyperactive men sexualizing kids isn't right in the centrist book. If you can't handle this fact, bad for you but my point is, today, you need to be a motherfucking fanatic to not be called a KKK member.
Jose Anderson
It's just another cult. They're even going through their purity spiral phase right now.
Elijah Stewart
marxist tolerant, no effort nigger
Isaac Garcia
Yeah, purity spiraling is a big deal in leftist inner politics where some Marxist is less Marxist than this Marxist and therefore "has to go" for some more ruthless faggot to gain leadership and get his place.
this is the part where you wake up on thr pavement, having forgotten that you were you were going to get hit very hard
Jacob Gonzalez
hegels dialectic is describing a process by which god comes to know itself through the self interaction of conscious thought. thought contradicts with itself and goes through a series of rebirths until only the absolute knowing of pure consciousness remains. the man was a mystic and a wizard

There are different kinds of socialists. The idea of pro-worker anti-capitalism predated marx, and as a general sentiment is attractive to a wide variety of people suffering under capitalism. As such many members of the broader socialist movement are simply operating on vague sentiments. Socialism to marxists however is just one step of the progression of history, and pro-worker is a stance based on the model of social evolution developed by marx and engels. Marxists then are socialists because 'now is the time to further socialism' not because marxists are ideologically socialist the way liberals are ideologically capitalist.
There is always a tendency for some caught up in broader socialist movement to, disheartened by lack of progress, to join other elements which pay lip service to worker interest. These socialists have lost sight of the big picture, and are tempted by shortcuts. The comintern warned against the rise of fascism long before it became an apparent problem, because the underlying social productive dynamics it preserved were incorrect. The socialists that became nazis were lured in by the promises of what would be accomplished while neglecting to check if the structure proposed was capable of it.
He was none of that, he was just a nigger faggot that kikes worship. True assent comes from denying YOURSELF so only God starts to show up.
James Allen
That's the Socratic method you well-poisoning kike.

On reatrdera they used a star wars analogy and said the dark side is a corruption of the force and the light side it’s natural state. That there is no balance between them, the dark side must be destroyed. And they think that they are like the light side. I used to be a SW fan and apparently this really is canon which sounds absurd but whatever I don’t care. Point is they think they have the moral high ground and are on the right side of history and everybody who disagrees is evil that must be destroyed and cannot be reasoned with. In truth this is a classic Marxist way of thinking. Lenin and Trotsky refused to entertain any opposing opinions to their ideology. It is a mentality we should probably adopt. But they do it naturally because they’re evil bastards. When they murder and kill it’s for a good cause, for human rights, destroying evil, etc.
