It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Edit: to be clear I don't have a problem with Anarchists, just seems like very often MLs are met with so much vitriol with people they could collaborate with. Just sucks. Stupid interner

The class war is a war like any other, and most wars I know of were won by having a clear plan of battle and strong leadership.

A strong leadership is one that is built from the bottom up.

This doesn't in any way contradict the previous statement, what are you trying to say?

[–] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago (5 children)

but which/whose plan is the right one?

and how do you mediate between those with different plans who are all convinced that they are correct?

these are the real questions.

Easy, the one that has the most W’s under its belt and is best adapted to the situation.

[–] booty@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

and is best adapted to the situation.

and here we run into the same problem again

[–] Tunnelvision@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

the one that has the most W’s under its belt

No we haven’t. Filtered.

[–] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

what counts as a win will be scored differently by each geoup with a different plan.

[–] Egon@hexbear.net 14 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Seizing power and building a new society under your type of government is a win. Everything else is a means to that end

[–] booty@hexbear.net 3 points 4 months ago

Congratulations, you quoted... a different part of your comment from the one I quoted? This is the kind of behavior I'd expect to see on Reddit.

The one "best adapted to the situation" is subjective.

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 13 points 4 months ago

You have elections, like most communist groups do.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The plan that best furthers the interests of the proletarian class and advances us the most towards seizing power

[–] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

people disagree on what that is. duh. thats what I’m saying.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 14 points 4 months ago

It becomes evident during struggle what one’s are the most advanced. You use results to determine this. The most advanced proletarian movements in history are the USSR and other AES. They achieved the most power. Once another plan and type of communism gets further than that, they will become the default

The science of revolution. It's a process. A dialectic process. A means of understanding society through action and changing it through understanding. It's like asking which is the right explanation for things, physics or chemistry? Biology or mathematics? They're all different tools to tackle different problems in the attempt to understand the universe.

Which experimental outcomes line up with reality? Those who achieved revolution. We know some plans worked in their context and some didn't. We can formulate plans of our own for our own context. Those that lead to revolution are the right ones. Those that just lead to navel-gazing and academic debates are not correct.

[–] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 3 points 4 months ago

that will be fought over because there is not hindsight for what hasn't happened yet. obviously.
