As the world around us becomes increasingly globalized, there is no other explanation than capital. Pick a random object (commodity) and look at where the materials came from, where is was assembled, all the different things that went into it. You will find that the economies of different nations are becoming increasingly reliant on one another. Countries do not have economic crashes. Those are global issues that are now effect the entire planet when they happen.

And now for immigration. The west is the major hub of immigration because that’s where all the money is. To combat rises in waves here, the capitalists have exported their production to third world countries where they don’t have to pay workers a fair living wage. That’s where all the jobs are going.

And those same third worlders will immigrate to the west because we have higher wages. The capitalists will happily accept them because they will work for less money and wages will go downX

That's the thing. There's a ton of top-down human intervention going on. Society is being guided (guided, not just unwittingly stumbling towards) the socialist stage of development by the elite. Don't believe me? There's a good chance 2070's America will look like this:
>Amazon, which became a hegemonic monopoly is directly controlled by the American government
>Amazon's supply/distribution chains serves as a centrally planned economy, guiding the means of production (owned by the proles via the American government's control of Amazon)
>Nearly all jobs are automated, the productive forces are completely constructed
>People receive UBI as the sole source of income, this is where "to each according to his needs" comes in
Do you not see that this is the socialist stage of development made real? Do you not see that this is literally what our elite want? It's not accidental, it's not the economy acting on it's own, it's not even inevitable. It's what our elite, informed by Marx, Engels, and their ideological descendants, pushed our society to become.

You're not thinking about things at a high enough level. Stop thinking corporate leaders are against socialism, or that they disagree with Marxism. The petit bourgeoise of the West may think this way, but they are irrelevant. The movers and shakers, the Bezos, Zuckerberg, Gates, etc. are our vanguard party, our CCP. They are doing all they can to bring about the socialist stage of development, and they are using corporations as a way to do so. For now, they might keep up the façade that they are merely business owners. Sometimes they must act as mere business owners, to ensure the productive forces are built as quickly as possible. But they are dedicated Marxists.

I can give you all the proof in the world, but at the end of the day most communists think "no red-and-yellow, no hammer-and-sickle... not communist!". You'll just have to wait and see. When 2050 rolls around and it becomes apparent that the transition to socialism is happening and that it was the elite which guided it, you will all realize I was 100% right.

The leftism becoming popular among young people is specifically a declawed milquetoast version, hence its massive emphasis on purely social change. There are no serious, permanent societal changes pushed for by noseringed bluehaired DSA kids. They just want black trannies in movies and free abortions, that's all they're conditioned to care about by design.
I don't consider myself a leftist anymore because they've just gone so far off the deep end that it's irredeemable, and I'd bet my life savings that it was manipulated to that point on purpose specifically to get rid of people like me (see a lot of the stories from people who gave up after trying to keep hippies and faggots on-topic at Occupy Wall Street, same thing).

Socialism is not the 1% holding the majority of the wealth while most workers don't make a living wage.

The elite are doing literally what Marx says people in the capitalist stage of development should be doing, from building the productive forces to eroding national borders and homogenizing culture. Major social networks promote communist thinking while suppressing any dissent. (Don't believe me? Go to Reddit/Twitter right now, you'll quickly realize how much effort is put into making Marxism popular). My thinking is that none of this is accidental. Marx is not exactly secret knowledge, and there's NO way the elite, from Bezos to Gates to Obama and beyond, haven't read him, realized he was recommending a way to a stable society, and decided to enact his ideology. If they really opposed Marxism like you all think, they wouldn't be doing what he recommended, even if it was good for them in the short term, because Marx shows that will lead to socialism. They are doing it because they support Marxism.

They haven't done so for the same reason the Chinese haven't done so. The productive forces need to be built up more. A premature move to the socialist stage of development is a mistake which leads to famines, suffering, etc. Once the productive forces are built to completion, then the transition to socialism, where all the megacorporations in the USA voluntarily nationalize and the US government will act on behalf of the working class, owning and managing the means of production. This will happen when AI reaches a level where the whole of the US economy can be autonomously managed and run by it.

First of all, this really sounds like libertarian conspiracy theories. Every corporation is fighting for its own self interest.
The government is not competent enough to have agents running every single multi billion dollar company in the country waiting for the day when they all fuse together under a single government with no conflict in the transition.
It's all about individuals fighting for profit. That's it.

Second of all, the government did act on the behalf of the workers, wouldn't the lives of workers be drastically improved?

In terms of culture, most of the decay in culture really is just a response to a decay in standards of living.

Capitalists want open borders to allow an inflow of cheap labor that can compete with citizens bargaining for higher wages and benefits. The USSR wasn't taking in tons of immigrants for cheap labor were they?

Of course, the government by itself wouldn't be able to. But luckily, the majority of corporations are run by Marxists and employ Marxists. It will not be a bloody overthrow, but a smooth transition at with a signature.

By definition, they own companies and property that generate profit for them. They are capitalists. They bring in workers because either its cheaper or because for some high tech fields, there is better talent in other countries. All they care about is their bottom line.

Why aren't the board of directors at Amazon cutting their salaries and bonuses and giving it to their warehouse workers? Why do companies try to stop unions from forming?


>When 2050 rolls around and the transition to socialism happens, you will see this happen as well.
The only reason socialism would happen is because so many people have jobs that do not paying living wages. People have lower living standards than their parents and grandparents. And its not going to be a simple transition, companies will do everything in their power to prevent socialism while the workers will fight for it - so that they can have more money and higher living standards.

There is more wealth inequality than ever before. The elite own property that generates profit while most of their workers do not get paid a living salary. That is literally capitalism and the elite do not want to give it up and they will fight to not give it up.

>Why aren't the board of directors at Amazon cutting their salaries and bonuses and giving it to their warehouse workers?
Our vanguard party needs resources for a variety of reasons. Perhaps they need money to combat and coerce counterrevolutionaries. A lot of them are investing in other companies and firms. Some are investing in China, helping their comrades there also achieve the socialist stage.

>Why do companies try to stop unions from forming?
For now, the buildup of the productive forces trumps any other concerns. If unions are slowing that down, they need to be controlled. When the transition to socialism happens, we won't have to worry about wages or working anymore. It's a "struggle now, prosper later" thing.

>And its not going to be a simple transition, companies will do everything in their power to prevent socialism while the workers will fight for it

You’re right about point 2 but it doesn’t have to be a planned economy. Market socialism is a thing.

Ok well that’s the only left leaning thing they do.

You won’t see them allowing their workers to unionize or voluntarily giving control over the means of production to the workers anytime soon.
