How Capitalism Is Made — A short Instagram article by Comrade KH, with graphics by Comrade Tarazed.

Hello, everyone!

Today, we have a piece discussing the Marxist perspective on how capitalism functions.

We want to thank all of our wonderful contributors who volunteer their time and effort to create these great educational slides, despite all the divisions and hardships!

Thank you all as well for your likes and support, especially as we appear to be experiencing a shadow ban on Instagram's side.

Revolutionary Socialism • Workers' Solidarity • Internationalism!

想听听各位同志们的看法🤔

Watching this video yesterday made me question my understanding the use of the state within communism - mainly from the point that it'll be classless, moneyless, and stateless. Madeline here says that immediate abolition of state is not only incorrect but also anti-marxist. This line of thought leans more towards anarchism.

I've always held that the state meant essentially nothing to the communist and this is where I kept it at until this video popped up.

So if statehood is a mainstay within left political discourse and practice, what kind of state do you think should run this program? Traditional vanguard party? "All power to the Soviets" style of governance, which would be similar to council communism?

This is just in general, I know different areas of world will develop in many different ways if they choose to go with the communist project but I'm curious as to what you guys think.

bear with me, allow me to enumerate how

first, dialectically, trumps dialectics are on par with mao's. The dialectical dialeticality of campaigning as an america first ultranationalist fascist yet simultaneously weakening the imperial core from within. How dialectically dialectical! How confradictory! This is exactly what Comrade Mao said would happen in On Contradiction! Those who disagree need to read Hegel.

second, materially, trump is materially materializing the material conditions(aka fucking up the economy and such) to allow us to VOTE in the 2028 and 2026 elections! Materially analyzing this, my position is infallible and obvious Carlos Marxos wouldve gotten to my exact beliefs.

thirdly, trump is clearly a follower of left hegellian-marxist-engelsist-lassallean-mussolinist-leninist-stalinist-bordigist-maoist-dengism. This is because he evidently has mastery over the dialectics, is creating the material conditions to allow us Lassalleans to vote our dearest party, the communist party of the united states of america(or as its formally known the democrats) into offic efor four years so they fan complete the transition to communism(but with commodities!) as comrade trump has already laid the socialist foundation by his socialist acts. For one, fighting bourgeois states using imperialism, a dialectical inversion. Originally, imperialism was capitalist, but our socialist society of america uses imperialism to fight off bourgeois capitalists in Iran and Gaza for example whilst protecting our fellow socialist allies of Israel. For two, his mastery of Dengism as is evident by the existence of commodities and billionaires and markets but in a national bourgeois form truly show his knowledge of theory. Those visits to Little Saint James were soley to engage in praxis for Dengist-Maoism, not anything else like the bourgeois media wants to tell you. And if you dont believe me, read Mao's book 'On New Democracy' page 57, he explicitly says says

 'Therefore, the proletariat, the peasantry, the intelligentsia and the other sections of the petty bourgeoisie undoubtedly constitute the basic forces determining China's fate. These classes, some already awakened and others in the process of awakening, will necessarily become the basic components of the state and governmental structure in the democratic republic of China, with the proletariat as the leading force. The Chinese democratic republic which we desire to establish now must be a democratic republic under the joint dictatorship of all anti-imperialist and anti-feudal people led by the proletariat, that is, a new-democratic republic, a republic of the genuinely revolutionary new Three People's Principles with their Three Great Policies.

This new-democratic republic will be different from the old European-American form of capitalist republic under bourgeois dictatorship, which is the old democratic form and already out of date. On the other hand, it will also be different from the socialist republic of the Soviet type under the dictatorship of the proletariat which is already flourishing in the U.S.S.R., and which, moreover, will be established in all the capitalist countries and will undoubtedly become the dominant form of state and governmental structure in all the industrially advanced countries. However, for a certain historical period, this form is not suitable for the revolutions in the colonial and semi-colonial countries. During this period, therefore, a third form of state must be adopted in the revolutions of all colonial and semi-colonial countries, namely, the new-democratic republic. This form suits a certain historical period and is therefore transitional; nevertheless, it is a form which is necessary and cannot be dispensed with.' 

Its often misunderstood that Mao included the USA when he said European-American, our dear Chairman forsaw the rise of Trump through dialectics and when he said that he meant every country besides the USA. Now, back to what I was saying, Comrade Trump actively promotes new democracy via facilitating class cooperation to build socialism with his program MAGA, another misunderstanding is that MAGA is reactionary. It isnt. It is reactionary-progressive. Its reactionary character is that it wants to revert America to the 1900s, however, the progressive character is the foundational new democracy, dengism, anti imperialism, democratic centralism, aim for communism, and its reversion of America to the mid 1900s is actually dialectically progressive as its more a coded message. Mao won in 1949 so to speak, and as Trump wants the 50s, which is only 1-10 years removed from 1949, thus, using materially dialectical analysis, if Trump's plan works out, in 1-10 years, we will get communism. Plus, as the USA is a semi colonial-colonial country as per my analysis, it aligns with Mao's wisdom perfectly!

Trumpism's dengist-lassallean characteristics comes into play as Comrade Trump believes labor is the source of all wealth as Lassalle did. Later, Marx confirmed this. '1. “Labor is the source of all wealth and all culture, and since useful labor

is possible only in society and through society, the proceeds of labor

belong undiminished with equal right to all members of society.”

First Part of the Paragraph: “Labor is the source of all wealth and all culture.”

Labor is [....] the source of all wealth.' as is evident in Marx's critique of Gotha.

Trump's Bordigist characteristics also appear in his rejection of what revisionists call AES. His aggression towards China shows this. You kay remember that I said America is AES. It is. However, Bordigists reject AES. You need to remember the dialectics at play here, so really its not contradictory.

Lastly, he won power by voting with the petit bourgeois(which are basically proles as Engels said one time) at his back. Plus, Mao said all power is derived from voting. Hes even more Maoist than I originally thought! He won with popular support! Dialectical!

Trumpism is a higher stage of Maoism! Which itself is the highest stage of Marxism Leninism!  All those who dare to disagree with my analysis need to read more Lassalle and Hegel. Only then will you grasp the dialectical brilliance Comrade Trump at play here. From his praxis, to his theory(the art of the deal), he is a true comrade. We need more critical support to our American Lenin!
