Khalil Gibran

Militant Socialism is the views of Marivistu. They are mostly inspired by Antonio Gramsci on culture, Vikky Storm on Gender, and Mark Fisher on Capitalist Realism and the imagination of new realities. It wishes for the use of counter-culture, counter-hegemony (called proletarian hegemony) and ruthless criticism in order to envision a new future away from capitalist realism and the democracy ruled by its subscribers and their friends in the market.

Militant Socialism is extremely supportive of technology as it can be used to envision new futures more efficiently and less bound. It also believes technology can help with the battle for social liberation against an increasingly conservative media, spread to keep oppression as an accepted norm, which in turn benefits capitalism, being a system built on oppression.

Hegemony

The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear.

Antonio Gramsci

Ruthless Criticism of all that exists

Social Democracy

Social democracy, which demonstrates the left's repressive moderation from anti-capitalism to "new and improved" capitalism, is the embodiment of the hegemony theory that Gramsci believed in where the system currently possesses a monopoly over our culture and thought.

Gender

Gender is an integral social construct of the capitalist system. It is centred around wage labour and has transformed marriages — unions between citizens — into mere labour-centric contracts. Vikky Storm explains this well in her Gender Accelerationist Manifesto. "The male part of reproductive labour was increasingly to labour for a capitalistic boss, and the female part to support his wage labour from home."

Žemerald

For the few flawless (or nearly so) ideologies.

Žem

For the ideologies which glisten brightly in the sea of shit.

• Rocksism - Your views are definitely good, synthesis anarchy is a noble goal which aims to bring about a unified anarchist idea, which certainly would be useful when trying to abolish the state. I see you have Capitalist Realism on your Want to Read section, I would definitely recommend it, it's very great. I like your decommodification of products idea, that is a breaking down of a feature of utmost importance to capital. While I don't believe in communization personally, I do think it is a good ideal. (You should totally abolish gender though for the truest individual freedom.)
• Neo-Leninism - Reading your page, your beliefs are definitely not too bad, I love your ruthless critique of social democracy and I totally agree with you that capitalism is working as intended and any attempt to fix it is anti-communist bullshit which does not even attempt to break out of the hegemony capital has over our very minds, our media, everything in the goddamn fucking world. I agree with you that many Democratic Socialism supporters have no idea what socialism means, I mean just...ask an average self-proclaimed socialist who votes socialist parties, they'll likely say its just "more wages" or something. Your dislike of party dictatorship is great, fuck yeah and council communism is a very good system. I like your revolutionary stance as well. Yeah, overall, you're rather great comrade.

Ruby

For the fairly good ideologies.

Iron

For the middling ideologies.

Rust

For the bad, but not repulsive ideologies.

Wegiel

For the repulsive ideologies.

Brimstone

For the purely evil ideologies.

• Brazilian Liberalism - As an enforcer of the cultural hegemony which Gramsci told of and a subscriber to capitalist realism, you are everything I am against. You also have now become a monarchist and a monarch, no matter how constitutional they are, is a symbol of the oppression of proletariats and its effect of "unifying the nation" only spreads two ideas: we "need" a monarch to be together and the monarch is our protector. Your economics are disgusting as well, the ultimate tools of pacification of man, designed to stop the poor from eating the rich, like all neoliberal or third way scum. You claim to be Culturally Center-Left and this is an example of moderation which I despise. Overall, you are simply despicable and your kind of thought needs to be countered with new thinking.
