Communism is a coping mechanism for the fact you're poor

Communism is a coping mechanism for the fact you're poor.

the only people who actually believe communism are upper middle class tho

Not really, at least for me. I doubt I can have a fullfiling life under capitalism and I don't think there is any good reason for having certain few people decide if you get to starve or be their wage slave.

this is the actual coping mechanism. but it's less poor than angry. there are lots of wealthy folk who support socialist ideas, rightly or wrongly

No, it's not. Go to a communist meet up, it's mostly poor people and lumpenproles.
Historically, many of the people who ruled communist states were also from a working-class background.

actual poor people are too busy working to gay about your gay ideology

Read a book for once.

The drive to become "free" and reap the benefits of ones own labor instead of giving it up to a class of undeserving layabouts, is what's behind the it all. If an ideology, or a portion of an ideology, fails, we ought to discard it for something that works to our mutual advantage.
Fools want a return to monarchism, same as fools want a return to Stalinism. They can enslave themselves in a freed world for all I care.

What about Lenin?

Lumpenproles are by definition not class conscious.

And for your reading assignment.

Literally opening a wikipedia article says his family was fron serfs and of lower class.

um wait, i thought it was a way for upper middle class sjw women to assuage their white guilt?

"Freedom" leads to fascism or stalinism anyway, so be my guest and start a "revolution" again lmao.

I'm not a commie, retard.
Labour union organisations, like the RMT, are closely connected to communist groups, now and historically. Maduro and Chavez were both poorsfags, Maduro was a bus driver and Chavez in the military. You have a /pol/ meme view. Communist/far-left groups always attract people lower on the lower side of social ranks.
What about him? Lenin is one man, thousands of people ran the Soviet machine. Kruschev was a factory worker and Stalin came from a poorfag family.

It's both.
The theoreticians and thinkers tend to be upper-class types. The rank and file and the organisers tend to be working class and lower-middle class types.

>Stalinism is wrong

Capitalism leads to fascism.

The revolution isn't over.

>t. pwease don't steal my money
Nerd.

Jonathan Bowden summarised two of the main archtypes of the far-left groups. From personal experience with such circles online, I think he is correct. The first is the bleeding heart, who wants to improve the condition of his fellow man. Truly believes his ideals would create a better world. The second is the nihilist misanthripe who hates the rich and powerful, he wants to tear them down and burn everything to the ground.

>discord tranny thinks he's going to take part in a revolution
Communists like Marx, Lenin, Mao, Trotsky, Stalin, Che, basically every communist of any significance in history, would have had tranny freaks like you taken out back and shot. I'm not even joking or being mean, that's the absolute truth.

Both archtypes are pretty based

>far-left groups always attract people lower on the lower side of social ranks.
maybe in shithole mestizo countries you’re right, I wouldn’t know because I live in the first world

What are two far-right arch types?

>he wants to tear them down and take their place*

Of course. I have always thought that far-left ideologies, particularly communism, are genius weapons for coup d'etat. You appeal to the basest instincts of the lowest classes, who make up the majority of society and turn them against the ruling elite. After the revolution, you take total power.

Not him, but I'd argue those types are the same for all sorts of extremists.

In Yea Forums, we mostly get misanthropes.

That's all one though. Where they differ is on methodologies.

Christian and nationalist. Both want back into a box of authority. One prefers the church the other the state.

>I wouldn’t know because I live in the first world
There are no communists in the first world anymore.

The same could be said of capitalism and poor spirit.

The chad and the incel

I'm from England and I've been to several far-left group meetings. Many of them are working poor, lower-middle class, and lumpenproles.

Unironically jaded lefties. Mussolini used to be a socialists and so was Mosley. Second one are men that were too used to military life and couldn't adjust for civilian one.

>he thinks a poor spirit isn't just something made up by poorfags in an attempt to make richfags feel bad for being rich

>Memes memes memes memes memes memes

Former leftwing authoritarian decides to go rightwing authoritarian.
And ex military. These are your examples of rightwing archetypes?

Hi
Please kill yourself
Thanks

What a waste of space you are.
If you can't engage in the conversation just gtfo

>it's mostly poor people and lumpenproles.

Yeah, I see you know a lot about communism.

>reap the benefits of ones own labor instead of giving it up to a class of undeserving layabouts
the unintentional irony levels are off the charts

Not for the fact they're poor, but for the fact they're useless. Plenty of people are free and happy today, but they can't be that way, so they want society to change.

You're mental.
You don't know how capitalism works yet?
You think rich people actually deserve to take in all that cash, because it's contractual?
How are you on a board for literature?

Why did you ignore my post here?

No one is free when freedom is for rent

Not really. Wealth inequality was and is lower in socialist states and not because "everyone was puur XD becauze of gommunism!! ". People who work for government still need to be payed. Even fucking stalin lived modestly compared to the tsaar.
Not him but because it's shit.

Anyone with a household surplus of $100k/yr+ and isn't a neurotic mess is pretty free, the amount of freedom increasing as the surplus increases.

>because it's shit.
Essentially.
It's obvious he's not a reader. Sowell's wiki and he thinks he can post here? w/e

But it's true. You think Stalin would have allowed gender bending queers into the party? You would have went straight to the gulag.
