Hello. This page serves less as an ideology and more as a pseudo-ideology for what I believe is necessary to spark a socialist revolution in what is undoubtedly the greatest dictatorship of the bourgeoisie the world has ever seen.
READ THEORY!
Our salvation requires sacrifices
We live in a perfect dictatorship of the bourgeoisie; a class rule that has permeated not just into absolutism when it comes to the state, but into our daily lives and even our psyche. The American proletariat have been thoroughly brainwashed over a hundred years to fear anything remotely resembling socialism, to the point of calling public healthcare 'socialism', to the point of destroying the labor movement, to the point of annihilating anything resembling a socialist or communist movement in the United States. There isn't even a democratic socialist or social democratic movement to speak of; and no, liberal ass democrats don't count. If something as so mundane, so bougie itself as social democracy and democratic socialism is considered not only controversial but revolutionary... exactly why and how the fuck do my fellow Marxists believe that the American people will suddenly turn to even radicaler options such as Marxism? If the people are already turned off by even social democracy, how do you even remotely propose that they will lend the vanguard party support in time for the revolution? All revolutions require popular support; all revolutions have succeeded because they have had the full force of the people behind them. The socialists are not of the people yet. They remain a small minority of revolutionary elites who, in recent years, have fallen into the degeneracy of caring only about theory rather than practical and pragmatic application.
Class consciousness is the gateway to socialism itself. It is not just necessary, but paramount to the construction of a socialist revolution. Americans have no class consciousness. America is not one of the most class unconscious nations, it is THE most class unconscious nations. America is filled from bottom to top with lumpenproletariat torn apart between the Democrats (right-wing liberals) and Republicans (right-wing liberals) and dumb bougie shit like race war, culture war and the most stupid and inconsequential of issues. The fact that things such as strikes and bougie revisionist shit like democratic socialism are seen as controversial is only proof of the fact that America is not ready for socialism. It is a dumbed down, drugged nation perfectly serving the interests of the bourgeoisie down to a tee.
Class consciousness is built through baby steps. It must start from somewhere. The lumpenproletariat cannot be convinced by the likes of us except in times of exceptional crisis, of which America will not be in for quite a while. I mean fuck, even 2008 and 1929 wasn't even enough for people. As much as we hate them; as much as they are traitors to the cause and disgusting backstabbing fools, they have a use. The construction of socialism starts with, and has to include social democrats and democratic socialists. It must employ reformist causes and also employ a reformist and 'democratic image' in line with the American population's traditional view of politics. It must provide concessions, betray the very ideals of Marxism at times and even collaborate with the unsavory.
Yet ultimately, at the end of the day, when the American people are thoroughly opened up to the idea of social democracy and democratic socialism, their minds and world will be open to actual Marxism, to actual socialism; to greater and more radical ideals than any of them could have possibly imagined. Our revolution will come because of reform. The American socialist movement must disguise itself as a wolf of politics if it wishes for any chance to survive.
The so-called "stages of class consciousness"
Class consciousness, as I mentioned previously, is paramount to the entire movement and to the construction of a communist society itself. America has no class consciousness. America is a society filled near entirely with lumpenproletariat to the point of absurdity. There is no organized labor movement here. Workers' rights here are shit. We are behind nearly every other western nation in this regard. Our socialist movement, if it wishes to destroy the system and build a new one, must, not "should", must built up the labor movement, it must build up tolerance to the most basic principles of socialism before we can even consider revolution, or even consider the prospect of revolution. Revolution is not inevitable. The collapse of capitalism is inevitable; but it has collapsed twice in America by now. We must take matters into our own hands.
