The Proletariat and Modern Struggles
The proletariat are not silent and passive players in their struggle, they do not sit back and only act in reaction to the actions of capital, not at all. On the contrary, they play a much heavier role as the slayers of capital and its bourgeois meat hooks, they are active participants indeed. What do I mean by this?
Capital relies on the constant decoding of different territories in order to survive and thrive. It did so through its commodification and restructuring of the family, of the workplace, of all fixed social relations that belonged to the feudal reactionary past. It turned the old sovereign societal relations of the feudal order into disciplinary (and later controlling ones), that acted to control desire, most importantly the desire of the proletariat, to keep them from exercising their potential as a machine against capital itself and the network of biopolitical power that holds it up. Through the workplace, the educational system, the prison, and social life in general, capital entrenched itself and used its disciplinary power to crush the desires of its opposition.
This has intensified in the modern age with the rise of cybernetics and technology, in which societies of control have taken the place of the societies of discipline, territorial power now being decentralized across the entirety of society, all united around one social factory. Capital now grips every territory it can grip, it now able to freely accumulate and reproduce itself through the institutions it has created. In such a way, the dictatorship of capital has risen to become even more totalizing than under disciplinary societies. Capitalism with this is no longer just about the exercise of economic power by the bourgeoisie and capital but is now a biopolitical force of mass control and surveillance. So then, what is to be done?
With the rise of the biopolitical institutions of power in the 1900s, came a new development. The proletariat has, even in its weakest moments, has developed a new and more potent form of its schizophrenic spontaneity, one particularly threatening to our lord capital, it is a spontaneity that capital must crush for its own interest. Through the unions, the councils, and various other means, the proletariat has been able to, even while working within the confines that capital allows it to affirm itself against aggression, and at various brief moments, has been able to use its spontaneous nature to ray mass destruction upon capital. It has self-organized itself at many times into a machine fueled by the temporarily freed desires of itself. It has been made clear by the proletarian struggles, their struggles to affirm themselves against capital, that the proletariat is an irreducibly autonomous force, one capable of standing up to the fiery dragons of the current order. Capital, though inhuman in nature and frankly uncaring of what man thinks, only using them for its own benefit, can only be threatened by such spontaneous forces of social life, so it must always find ways to subjugate such spontaneous resistance to the machines of capital.
We can understand this better through Mario Tronti's analysis of the cycle of composition, the partial escapes from capital and the partial subjugating by capital. When the proletariat affirmed itself and its desire, capital could not destroy such a war machine, it could only counterattack by attempting to control the desires of the proletariat through the further biopolitization of social life. It counteracts the decoders of itself through both brute force in the short term and through recoding itself to become more resistant in the long term. It must do this in order to survive, it is in its self-interest to do such a thing out of pure necessity to. Capital therefore develops through this process increasing abilities to suppress the spontaneity of its slaves.
Therefore, what is to be done is nothing more than the organizing of the proletariat into a war machine of its own, a mass fueled by desire and violence which embarks in its own offensive against capital, to free social life and the desire from the mechanic stratification of capital and the state, slaying the dragon of the intelligent social capital. Proletarian politics therefore can be seen as the killing machine that self-acts without all the party and union forces that act in counterrevolution to it, it affirms its own independence by itself.
The Divinity of Capital
It has often been a mistake of the naive and immature communists to underestimate the power of capitalism. These communists can only view capitalism as just another social relation, just an accumulation of money, something that can be easily controlled by humans. This is of course, nonsense. On the contrary to all of the blabber about capital as a human construct, we point out the less obvious about the nature of capital. Capital is not just the things we just outlined, it is a semi-conscious deity, one not bound to the wishes of humanity but one that has risen above humanity in fact. It is an artificially intelligent god of its own. (WIP)

Kimno Thought (

Nurulisme (
) - Very good analysis of for example, capital as a deity, which I for the most part agree with, along with a few other things. My main problem though is how you cling on to psychoanalytic and Hegelian nonsense, which makes it very confusing when you claim to be a Deleuzian at the same time, but otherwise fine.
