Your saying is clearest nonesense i’ve seen for a long time.
” Communist revolutions have relied on anarchist uprisings to clear the way for their own brand of authority”

where you’ve got that from? How many of those workers strikes, long, tedious mass working in the countrysides in anywhere were works of anarchists? I happened to stop by here to make sense of a comrade’ pointing it out but, seeing people who want to make a fictional perfect freedom out of nowhere by uprising instead of protracted struggle fighting feudalism, capitalism and imperialism (and various reviosinism and anarchy) is easy to say. Look at the conditions of women in China before and after revolution. Look at the number of people who couldn’t read and write before and revolution in Cuba, what sort of fruit hava anarchists brought about in the world?

I speak of Cuba.

Good Americans need to get their heads out of the sand and realize something!

Americans proper need to travel more. Even out of their own county.

Should you think I am condescending, please travel America.

Many good people, but simple. In todays world simple no longer gets it done.

Unfortunately the many hear have the wherewithal to conceptualize. Barry99 is probably correct in the premise of “fitting in”. Problem is, that makes my life less productive. This will lead to ‘my dumbing down’ and perpetuate the spiral to oblivion.

The day will come that scholars and wise men within the masses will be far and few between. Are you preparing ‘your’ future for this coming event?

This has happened over eternal time. One dissident was raised on a cross. Many were silenced. Easy to pick out the dissidents in such these environments.

Are you a dissident? Are you prepared to be silenced.

How are we to stop this madness?

And they may soon find even this too costly and unnecessary to the workings of the system. So we will see the increasing dumbing down of public schooling, elite education for elite children in private schools, and the good jobs in the new economy taken by foreigners who are educated at another country’s expense. The non-educated Americans will just have to fit into this new economy at a lower level. And if they don’t read or count well, then so be it. There’s likely no revolution coming out of this group.

On the heels of the Shock and Awe campaign, some ‘education’ honcho from New Mexico went to Iraq with the notion of making over their educational system (i.e. bringing it into line with the needs of US capital). So this is a guy coming from a US state which had something like a 54% full literacy rate, going to remake the educational system of Iraq which under Saddam had an 85% – 89% literacy rate. All part of the big plan.

Modern devices for “educational purposes” has only enhanced this march to total serfdom.

Soon we will have no time for modern education as our labour will be required full time to enhance the elite. At such a juncture we will have no time for any type of education.

The Dark Ages attest to this. How long will the next recovery or “discovery” take?

Merci.

The following is my translation of a poem posted on the Chinese language “China Red Travel” website on February 26, 2009. The broad masses of the Chinese people love Chairman Mao and revere his memory. With the restorationists having the upper hand, the masses who have lost the right to free education and health care, and who are suffering as a result of China’s integration into the crisis-ridden system of world capitalism, are increasingly voicing their anger at the new system.

The original poem has a strict seven character per line structure which is impossible to replicate in English, and difficult to translate from as it jettisons conventional grammar. If any Chinese speaker would like to correct my translation, I would very much appreciate it so that my learning of Chinese improves.

Whoever Opposes Chairman Mao is an Enemy of the People

1

The clowns who oppose Mao must be struck down
Their hatred of communism has not disappeared
Monsters and demons want to overturn the heavens[1]
The moneybags and landlords want to stage a comeback

2

Capitalist-roaders have emerged from within the Party
An evil wind rises to oppose Lord Mao[2]
Lord Mao conquered the world for the people
And restored the cool breeze to Heaven with his hands

3

Lord Mao held power for thirty years
The workers and peasants of the whole country beamed with joy
Everybody had a bowl of rice
And you didn’t need money to go to school or to a doctor

4

The workers and peasants managed things and were the masters of the house
From that time on, they had the right to speak
The broad masses of the people supported Chairman Mao
Capital and Self have given us the Word of Deng[3]

[1] Literally “Cow monsters and snake demons”, a traditional epithet used widely for counter-revolutionaries and capitalist-roaders during the Cultural Revolution.
[2] The Chinese original has a strict 7-character per line structure. Referring to Mao as “Lord Mao” (2 characters) rather than “Chairman Mao” or “Mao Zedong” (both three characters) allows greater flexibility within the line. The character for the feudal term “lord” or “duke” has passed into common parlance as an indication of respect or reverence for an elderly male. Mao is more often referred to as “laorenjia” (a bit like “the old man”) in everyday speech, which has the same meaning, but the more formal term of reverence is appropriate to the poetic form.
[3] Deng Xiaoping eventually succeeded Chairman Mao. Deng’s reforms, centering on a “socialist market economy” have opened the door for the reemergence of capitalist economic practices and capitalist relations of production in China.

But when we say the people know best we have to ask if the Hutus knew best, or the Janjaweed, or Israeli-Jews, or 3rd Reich Germans, or the some 99% who backed Bush after 9/11. Didn’t they also know best? Certainly, most of these people are for all practical purposes brainwashed – but that goes with the territory.

armed uprising/terrorism cannot ever work in US. even mass protests wld not alter situation.
education along with passive resistance/protests, etc. appears to me at this time as sole tool we have to conquer once and for all forces of darkness; with us now for at least 8T yrs.
tnx

Take a look at what is happening in Latin America. The people there are at least forging ahead. The same cannot be said of the U.S. Perhaps that is where folks can look for some lessons.

It’s like Bush or Obama preaching for freedom and democracy, isn’t it?. Preach for what everyone wants, give them something else. Classic, tried and true. Works for established power like it does for revolutionaries.
