Marxism's utter failure to materialize is simply a product of the materialist dialectic. Thing have been materially good for how long now? This is no surprise, we live in the triumphant imperialist state. Look at the products you are currently within arms reach of. All built on the backs of the third world worker. Why would the worker in the west rebel against this? He has, relatively, a good deal, and stands to lose something. The first 50 or so years after world war 2 were prosperous, schooling was cheap, the market only went up, products were cheap. This failure for communism to come about during this time is not an indictment against marxism, but corroborates it.

Things are going to get worse, now. Globalism is the end of capitalist expansion, for we cannot go past the globe to find new backs to crack a whip over. This is why the economy has never really recovered from 2008, why wages are stagnant, why student loan debt balloons, as does tuition cost. This is why our parents owned houses, but we don't. As capitalism grinds to a halt, crises become more frequent, and the police become more and more violent to keep us in order, then you will see rebellion. Did you know that the Chileans are in the streets, refusing to work, and causing chaos, in protest of their economic system, right now? What will happen to them? They will either be beaten into submission by their police, or receive a laundry list of concessions from the ruling class. In ether case, capitalism undoes itself. As violence against the people grows, so does dissent. As concessions from the ruling class grow, so does the ability to generate and hoard profit.

Capitalism's ability to subsume marxism only sustains itself by material conditions, and these conditions are evaporating.

I don't like anybody who likes me. Their standards are probably very low.

oh my, no offense.

ooooh I need justification to live, this life is so shit I need to make up a story and project my little idea of beauty onto it to even want to live. Shut the fuck up. Life just exists, it's innocent, you don't need to pretend, you have a fate, you have a will, listen to it and be free. All of this christcuckery is just your consciousness overcompensating, stop pretending its the only part of your self. Stop denying.
