Does Trump even know what a Communist is?
To be fair, Hasan is a Communist, and has called himself as such in the past. He uses the Progressive and Democratic-Socialist labels more these days for the same reason he wears suits now, to look less threatening to the audience seeing him on TV.
Hasan is more of a communist-sympathizing social democrat. His strategy is overwhelmingly reformist.
At most you might say he’s a Democratic Socialist, because his goal is still to eventuate the abolition of capitalism. He’s a Communist who knows the best available action is political mobilization. He’s certainly not a SocDem who only wants to reform capitalism. He’s openly spoken in favor of worker revolution, but he’s also aware that such a thing isn’t possible in America, at least at this moment.
Democratic socialists are social democrats in practice, considering it is impossible to reform capitalism into socialism. Revolution is absolutely possible, but it isn’t something you trigger, it is a response to crisis with an organized revolutionary class. We need to organize so that crisis turns to revolution.
You’re saying what Hasan says, idk what else to tell you. He’s not trying to reform capitalism into socialism, he’s organizing a political base that will be capable of turning the coming political crises into a productive Communist movement.
I disagree that he is succeeding in that by going through the DSA and focusing so hard on electoralism. It’s important to understand the necessity of democratic centralism and consistent revolutionary rhetoric, because otherwise we fall into the same problems as the second international and the SPD.
Democratic Centralism…? Oooooh you’re a Tankie, I got it. I just noticed the domain.
Go back to your HoI4 campaign bud, and let the grownups do actual politics.
I’m a communist and organize for socialism. Democratic centralism is a core function of successful party-building. Infantilizing me for speaking on what I know from both historical study and practical experience as an organizer within the framework of democratic centralism is childish. How are you going to convince others of your views if you act like this? Even Hasan doesn’t criticize demcent like this, and speaks very positively of demcent organizations.
For what it’s worth, I’ve never played HoI4 either.
Does he ever know anything?
He doesn’t even know what time it is
