There won’t be socialism with American characteristics. Unless you want to call social democracy as socialism.

The foundation on which this country was built needs to be destroyed before a socialist US can exist. I am always wary of people who think the US will have socialism with their own characteristics. Like what? Continued exploitation of 3rd world countries while Americans get free Healthcare and housing?

Everyone knows that historical materialism is dialectical, and the more you rip things down and pretend like they never existed the more dialecticaller it is :theory-gary:

If China and Russia can make a (relatively) clean break from feudalism, why can we not do the same for neoliberalism?

Russia in the early 1900s and China in 1950s didn’t have this much control over the world through their military like what the US has now.

It’s silly to imagine because it’s silly to do. Will Americans need to accept fewer comforts and treats? Yes. But you don’t have tell them until after it’s set in motion. For now, it’s the kind of conversation you have with people who are ready for it.

They couldn’t, they both understood that they needed to develop their productive forces through state capitalism :lenin-cat:

in this context, state capitalism is a clean break from feudalism

it’s a new organizational structure that replaced the old one

Ah yes the clean break that all of those dialectical thinkers were doing :hegel:

sorry, I think “clean break” was a bad choice of words on my part, I meant that a post-revolution organization doesn’t have to look like the government/institutions it’s replacing.

Protests, dual power, and even electoralism.
