Being an ethnic minority, I can't relate one bit with this whole fear-mongering about becoming a minority. The only issue with being a minority is discrimination, of which the people who make these talking points often perpetrate.

I find "replacement" to be a massive hyperbole anyway, it's not like there's a settler genocide being perpetrated by brown people in the first world aiming to establish their own state. "Invasion" is even worse, there's no invasion without a military, it has never happened in history.

I didn't expect this to gain so much traction tbh.

I suggest any non-communists to just turn a blind eye to this post and its comments, its just going to read like insane people talk and its not going to lead to anything productive imo.

That being said, I don't agree with the Stalin administration's deportation policies, and many of their policies as a matter of fact. But Kulaks were not a race or anything of that sort, they were a class of wealthier peasants and in class war there can be excessive violence of that sort. Additionally, most gulag deaths happened in the second world war, when supply chains broke causing many to starve.

There are numbers that are just straight up pulled out of a magicians hat too, like if you've ever heard of the 60 million deaths figure, that's just baseless. Even the 20 million deaths estimate counted German soldiers as well as soviet casualties as if Stalin was the one who killed them and not Hitler.

These horror stories of Stalin are an incredibly effective way of keeping people from the class struggle, because if it leads to a genocidal dystopia every time, may as well just accept the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, may as well let wage slavery continue knowing that the alternative is hell incarnate on earth.

99% of adventurists quit right before they achieve proletarian revolution

anarchist W because supply chains are authoritarian they let us have all the supplies

I notice a peculiar phenomena where some leftists will agree with base and superstructure theory as well as nod along at the quote "The ideas of the ruling class are in every epoch the ruling ideas" but for some reason they don't consistently apply them.

Needless to say, the dominant press is the bourgeois press. The dominant historiography is bourgeois historiography. Hell, even the dominant Marxism is an impotent bourgeois Marxism.

Some leftist want to look 'reasonable', but in this epoch it's a choice between being right and looking 'reasonable'. Demanding an end to private property is not 'reasonable', calling to armed struggle against the ruling class is not 'reasonable', wanting more than concessions is not 'reasonable'; any true Marxist will not ever be 'reasonable' in the eyes of the dominant ideology.

On the other hand, it is also quite a bad sign that the US ruling class allows the US proletariat to be armed to the extent that it is. It shows that they don't see the US proletariat, in its current state, as any sort of a threat to their class. And in truth, the US proletariat are not a threat in the present; at most they do a bit of adventurism and let off a bit steam in spontaneous movements.
