Not letting women vote is good for a society as a whole. Feminism has destroyed families and led to things like encouraging single moms with benefits, and giving women all the power in family courts

>Not letting women vote is good for a society as a whole. Feminism has destroyed families and led to things like encouraging single moms with benefits, and giving women all the power in family courts
Not everyone has the time to have a job and manage a family simultaneously. If a single mother needs to dedicate all of her time into supporting children, how will she make money to survive without benefits? This also doubles as proof of the inhumanity of capitalism.
And if the woman in the relationship is determined to objectively be in the right, that's a *you* problem rather than a systemic problem.
>What's bad about nationalism? Caring about your people and your country and wanting to protect it. Seems like the foundation of a country
Becoming attatched to a country and its culture is toxic.

Mussolini and Hitler were both ardent supporters of socialism before understanding that socialist fight for country, not for class, as was evident for WW1. Mussolini and Lenin wrote to each other frequently even (Lenin Collected Works, 1969, vol.23), and Lenin through these correspondences approved of what Mussolini was trying to achieve through his interpretation of socialism.

If this retarded expression ("implementation of Marxist ideology in full scale") is to mean anything at all, then it means communist society, which only comes after the capitalist society, and can't regress back to it, just as the capitalist society can't regress to feudalism (except as a result of some crazy nuclear event or something).

no such thing as capitalism, its free market. Again, whenever marxist ideology has been implemented in full scale (that is on an entire population of a country) it has ended in totalitarianism, that behaved to protect the political class at the expense of all others. This is the norm. It has happened every time. This is because Marxist ideology is flawed in that it does not account for the nature of the individual, and sees all human hierarchies as mere power struggles instead of systems of order established by merit. Price's law in effect. the term capitalism is a Marxist smeer on free markets. I am curious, can you name a society that is actually flourishing under socialist doctrine? Complete socialist doctrine?

If you were familiar with "Marxist ideology" then you would understand why it can't be "implemented in full scale" just "on a population of a country".

Another mistaken claim that could be easily avoided if only you learned the good habit of reading the primary material on a thing before proclaiming your opinions about it.

>and sees all human hierarchies as mere power struggles instead of systems of order established by merit. Price's law in effect.
No, it doesn't see human hierarchies as power struggles. It only sees class struggles as class struggles. Also, at last we learn what we're dealing with here (a Peterson babby).

You're right about this, but it also means you'll never achieve your socialist society. It is impossible to coordinate a global prole revolution. Even if you manage it, how would you prevent them from falling into nationalist/tribalist division like USSR/China/Vietnam. You would need to inspire like 4-10 Jesuses worth of faith in these people.

Capitalism can't kill people because capitalism is the respect for property rights - with the basis being in self ownership. Violence, except in defense, is therefore the opposite of capitalism and purely the realm of others - chiefly the religious societies - those who belief in a mystical non-existant being as the group. The group is merely a figmant of the human mind. Only individuals exist. Those who believe in the group over the individual are those who kill (progs, socialists, collectivists of all types).

You are doing more to deconstruct language, than to follow a line of logic. The logical conclusion of what Marx proposes is an economic and state system governed by a large totalitarian authority, that has complete sway over all aspects of life to the citizens with in said country. It does this by eliminating laws that protect the individual, and the masses of the country exist solely to provide for the top party members within the centralized government.

I offered a real critique of capitalism with Lenin's work, I offered sources to explain my position to you, and you have yet to offer even an anecdote to support any of your claims.

On the contrary. He distinguishes three broad stages of history. In the first one, the individual is dominated by rigid social relations (pre-capitalism), in the second one, he's dominated by a real abstraction -- value (capitalism), while the third one is the stage of, quoting Marx, "free individuality, based on the universal development of the individuals".
What you're describing is a variant of the second stage, where the real abstraction controlling the individual is personified in bureaucracy that itself rules only according to the whims of national capital. What Marx was after is the third, post-capitalist stage, or socialism, where humans are no longer controlled by social forces of their own making, but they're in control themselves.

>I offered a real critique of capitalism with Lenin's work, I offered sources to explain my position to you

Listen friend, I think we are talking over each other, I agree Marx was a prominent thinker, and that his solutions are ideal to the problem of human existence as he understood it. My critique of Marx is that he did not have the understanding of human history, physiology, evolution, and psychiatry that we have at present, and therefore his critique is wrong for those reasons. He could not understand what he did not know. When the very beings with which Marx did not completely understand are given his words by which to execute his idea of utopia, then those beings are acting in a more real nature regardless of the purity of the ideas, and create a dystopia. The same as what happens when the Bible is used for power plays, or the
Hadith, or any other religious ideology. Fundamentally Marx proposed a system by which an entire ideology is needed to support it. It is not his fault, he did not state that that is necessary, but it is what happens. The real question is why that happens.

Nonsense.
If anything, capitalists are the tools of capitalism. Since, for them to remain profitable and growing, they shape the world around them by following the choreography and logic dictated by our economic system, and as such execute the figurative "will" of the system.
The existence and inner workings of private property beyond personal property, of governing organizations which keep book and by threat of force maintain the relationship of this property, of wage labour, of production for exchange rather than use, and of competitive markets, do not rely on individual users of this "tool". Their existence --the existence of capitalism-- declares the conditions and the framing under and within which the individual capitalists and corporations must play their games. Certainly, these rules and conditions can be buckled and crooked by influencers that have grown powerful enough to subvert the system. Such a situation is however the result, the endgame, rather than the game itself.

It is correct of you to state that it would be silly to reduce the complexity of our system to merely money. Fortunately Marxists do not engage in such foolishness, which should be patently obvious to even the most casual of scholars on the topic.

Strawman. Very few ethnonationalists have any illusions as to racial 'purity'. Yet it is inctrovertible that ethnicity exists, and it is completely reasonable to consider a cluster of closely related ethnicities to be a 'race'. Biological divergence is not merely skin deep, and it is evident that there are many sub-species of humanity on this planet... Of course, taxonomical consistency goes out the window when we're looking at humans... How convenient.

Furthermore, ubiquitous race-mixing does not = maximum diversity. Some alleles are dominant and some recessive, so widespread and rapid (historically speaking) miscegenation will lead to far less genetic diversity -- especially where many dominant alleles are involved (as in Africans). There are other factors like outbreeding depression to consider as well. You are the enemy of true diversity, please understand that.

It is the basic, metaphysical fact of man’s nature—the connection between his survival and his use of reason—that capitalism recognizes and protects.
In a capitalist society, all human relationships are voluntary. Men are free to cooperate or not, to deal with one another or not, as their own individual judgments, convictions, and interests dictate. They can deal with one another only in terms of and by means of reason, i.e., by means of discussion, persuasion, and contractual agreement, by voluntary choice to mutual benefit. The right to agree with others is not a problem in any society; it is the right to disagree that is crucial. It is the institution of private property that protects and implements the right to disagree—and thus keeps the road open to man’s most valuable attribute (valuable personally, socially, and objectively): the creative mind.

Which issue with this exactly? Both the job loss problem and the sci-fi rogue AI problem are more solvable under socialism.

Looking at the leap from horse-and-cart to moon landing that happened between 1900 and 1960, it was reasonable to expect some really amazing things from 2020. Yet here we are still uzing zippers, fiddling with military hardware repurposed for civilian use and squabbling over dwindling resources that are killing us anyway.

Just a few years ago we finished sequencing the human genome, there was no great fanfare or blast of news about it. This is a body of knowledge with a huge time-lock device on it, intelligent critters have to get a lot of organization and discipline happening before they can open it up.

But it really looks like people are going to be happy talking about stupid backwards tribal bullshit for as long as possible, while the rich quietly sequester themselves from the rest of the world. There was an ad in the 80s showing a factory foreman supervising his offices, docks and manufacturing floors by camera and phone, from a sunny balcony somewhere far away. You bet that shit got shut down, it could have started a revolution, because that guy wants you to be born in your parent's workstation, go to school in the company technical college, eat in the commissary and die in the company hospital without ever understanding that you've been owned every minute of the way.

Fascism burned out from autistic screeching across Europe so fast it's impossible to know. Plus, unlike Russia, China and (Meiji) Japan, it didn't inherit famines from a pre-revolution society and then have more from rapid adoption of a new distribution system. It was targeted genocide, and they didn't adopt countries that were well behind technologically, they inherited Germany.

Guys, what's the best political and economic positions for someone who simply wishes for kindness and compassion to be the currencies of society, and everyone to have equal rights and all their general needs satisfied? I want everyone to be happy and healthy, and nobody to be hurting and impoverished. I have never personally cared much for having a high income, I just want everyone around me to be well and for all of us to help eachother above all else. I'm also a very spiritual person and believe the Divine must be honored in every aspect of society, that every building should rival the inside of a cathedral, in terms of Beauty. I think that sexuality should be suppressed, with pre-marital abstinence culturally enforced. People should be taught spirituality in school, with meditation and lessons on ethics a mandatory component of instruction. Introspection should similarly be turned into a subject, with students being able to lesrn about their internal nature through studying it, and this done for the sake of alleviating their suffering and helping them lead better lives. The militaries of the world need to be completely demolished - violence should never be used, in any form, on anyone. Capital punishment must become extinct - anyone who commits a heinous crime is simply given a position of labor for the rest of their life, thus providing society with a source of free, perpetual production. Nobody is to be physically harmed.

I have always been a very sensitive person, from childhood on. Seeing ir hearing about negative things has a very bad effect on my psyche. More than with most people. Reading this thread, and seeing things like "human rights" be treated as irrelevant, is an example of something that made me sad. Why would you ever say that? You have to be kind to everyone. How can you ever hurt another person? Why would you ever do such a thing?

I want "personal enlightenment" to be the collective goal of the society, with every single individual expected to reach a higher state of consciousness, and every sector of society structured around achieving this.

I want a "philosopher-king", who is himself spiritually enlightened, to rule the society, except instead of doing so from a palace, as a royal, he leads an ascetic lifestyle, having transcended the need for wealth. (1/2)

I want the members of government to wear robes, and for kindness to be omnipresent during their discourses. Think about how chaotic today's politics are - you can see the bloodthirst in everyone's eyes, wishing for nothing more than to physically eliminate their opponent. This is found at the level of politicians, or their civilian followers. And it's unacceptable to me. Now picture instead, two different parties entering a room, where they will do discourse. Imagine them wearing something akin to Buddhist robes, and all having meditated in a room together for 30 minutes prior to their discussion. And imagine them having that discussion, without ever flying into rage, and always extending compassion to the other party.

Basically, I want a theocratic spiritual-monarchy centered around the enlightenment of every individual in society, and an economic system whereby everyone had their needs met and the emphasis was not on personal resources, but the assistance of others. And kindness was always to be extended to others, regardless of one's differences to them.

Are there are any extant systems of politics and economics which approximate my views here? Thank you. (2/2)

If you're looking for a hobby then why not find a music genre or a sports team instead of "political and economic positions"? What you wish for is completely irrelevant in the real world, or, as the philosopher put it, "facts don't care about your feelings". Write a novel or something.

Ben Shapiro is not a philosopher, but other than you're right - desiring the well-being of all members of society has "no place in the real world" - but violence, poverty, war and greed deserve to be permanent fixtures of our civilization.

First, freedom is a meaningless buzzword. We have always had "freedom" just to a difference of degree. Anarchist's version of "freedom" is a literal fantasty. Freedom is the freedom to not freedom from.
>Do you not care about knowing what's your place in society?
I know my place in society and I'm okay with that
>Are you content with the illusion that you are free while you get assfucked by your jew overlords?
I am free, relatively. In fact if I had my say I would make us less free, relatively. A regimented ordely lifestyle is better than being allowed to do whatever, people tend to be too weak to control their own lives so they need a state to guide them. If our society promoted health, fitness, faithfulness, religious principles, and enforced it, we'd be doing so much better. Instead the modern state promotes mcdonalds, hiphop culture, and pornos. Its not the tool thats broken its the people using it. The government just needs to be replaced with something better and I remain optimistic it will. History goes through these cycles of dialectics.
