My dream now is to move to China and create propaganda for the sake of furthering communism. America is so systematically fucked that without literally killing every politician in the country we will never recover. Maybe maoist third worldists are right. We in real doomer hours now.
i would say the northeast and the north are the regions with the most revolutionary potential, but the working class here (i’m in the northeast) is even more disorganized than in são paulo for instance, and without organizing we won’t have shit
as for the state governor, the history of our communist movement is a bit complicated, but to sum it up PCdoB (flávio dino’s party) has become a reformist party through and through and PCB is the one that maintains its marxist roots
and this is coming from someone who to this day still thinks even bernie is a socialist, so when i say dino is a lib you can be sure he is lol
Is he more or less of a lib than Lula? Because I view Bernie in the same lense as I view Lula and that’s as being unquestionably liberal as is required to remotely being able to govern at all.
lula is a full-on liberal, he’s interested in incremental reform done through institutions and he sees mass movements as at most accessory to this (winning elections), not the tools to achieve structural change from the outside
dino is about the same
bernie was a bit different, he at least acknowledged the need for organizing and the existence of class struggle as something that workers can win
Interesting you say that, I guess my perspective is shifted because Lula actually held office, honestly makes me even more disappointed that Bernie lost now given the shear magnitude of the quality of life improvements Lula helped bring to Brazil working class and poor.
Bernie has really done a ton to reignite the labor movement in this country, it really is his lasting change. He’s been arguably the most important activist our country has had in decades, but he is still only really an activist.
