I’m so tired of the Collier guy

Sure his musical talent may be good but he does nothing original and nothing fun, and everything is rehearsed and well-planned but he acts as if it‘s ”made up on the spot”. He pisses me off.

I don’t see a need for a transitional state or the gradual abolition of capitalist relations if the revolution is global?

Why should you not communize society immediately? To me it seems like the most effective way to oppress the bourgeoisie.

Run fast, comrade, the old world is behind you!

My favorite line from May’ 68. Another one is “Sous les pavés, la plage!” (Under the pavement, the beach!). I have some hope in something like that happening again. History even makes it probable.

in the communist manifesto, it says "centralization of credit in the hands of the state by means of national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly" and "extention of factories and instruments of production owned by the state" , does this then mean of the class as a whole (workers democracy) or of a temporary state capitalist monopoly? Because earlier it says: "to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the state, i.e., of the proletariat organized as the ruling class".

As I remember it, in Mahayana a bodhisattva is a person who has attained enlightenment but delays nirvana. In Theravada, bodhisattva is primarily used to refer to Siddharta Gautama before he became enlightened. Maybe I am remembering incorrectly but i would like if someone explained it to me.
