What is considered white. Hell, I’m Sicilian and some of my Hispanic friends are as light or lighter than me. Of course we know with chuds, they will find another group to demonize.

I’m reading a book on immigration by Chomsky’s daughter and the thought just came to me. I’d like for that to be the case, my girlfriend is a Latina and a lot of my friends are as well, I’d rather them eventually be absorbed into the whiteness blob so they aren’t in quite as much danger from bigots.

After that, I’d rather whiteness as a gatekeeping concept go the fuck away entirely.

    You don't need to read 5000 pages to understand that having markets, money, commodity production, profits and exploitation doesnt mean you have a socialist society.

      they are making an effort towards socialism, despite starting out feudal, suffering from a genocidal war, being sanctioned by nearly the entire world, and having a shit agricultural environment, which I find impressive, compared to someone on the internet whining about. Through the WPK, the proletariat are the ones in power, thus it is socialist

        What does "effort towards socialism" even mean? In what concrete way are they doing this? There is no evidence that the proletariat are in power. The state is in power in NK. By this logic, the proletariat is in power in the USA because they are the ones who elected the current government. If capitalists can sieze the state using consent manufacturing and guided democracy even in countries like Sweden or New Zealand, why do you think a repressive state like NK allows actual proletariat power and not that the people elected in power(if they are elected at all) not simply reflect the interests of the bureaucracy?

        This is why I beg people to read Marx. Please read Marx, and you will understand why NK or China or Cuba are not socialist and have no greater chances of becoming socialist than any other capitalist state.

          The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital from the bourgeoisie to centralise all instruments of production in the hands of the State, i.e., of the proletariat organised as the ruling class; and to increase the total productive forces as rapidly as possible.

          Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property, and on the conditions of bourgeois production; by means of measures, therefore, which appear economically insufficient and untenable, but which, in the course of the movement, outstrip themselves, necessitate further inroads upon the old social order, and are unavoidable as a means of entirely revolutionising the mode of production

          • the communist manifesto

          The doc has several sources that go into great detail about it. This article is also a good read

          you also need to take into account the conditions they are in, they can't just zap over to socialism

            Marx later repudiated the manifesto after the experience of the Paris commune. But hey, that would require reading something other than the manifesto to know that. But let's look into the second paragraph.

            in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property, and on the conditions of bourgeois production

            What do you think he means by conditions of bourgeois production? It means commodity production, profit, exploitation etc. NONE of which are abolished in NK, nor is NK making any kind of concrete steps to abolish such things.

            necessitate further inroads upon the old social order, and are unavoidable as a means of entirely revolutionising the mode of production

            Is 60 years not enough to revolutionize the mode of production? After 60 fucking years, North Korea is planning to LIBERALIZE more?? What even is the point of the last 60 years of "socialism" in NK then?

              after 60 years of war and sanctions, they really don't have another choice

                  85% of all buildings were destroyed, several dams were hit, that isn’t something that one can easily bounce back from. Then all the sanctions started
