Old dogmas. Trotsky’s foreign body
Only social democracy has remained of the left movement in the modern world.
It has shown vitality only in Europe and only thanks to democratic habits. The democratic ark should have “a pair from each species.”
There are also no prospects for the so-called leftists in other parts of the world. If you want social guarantees, go to the polling station.
One after another, the countries of South America stumble upon the electoral rake. There seem to be no more precedents, such as until the overthrow of Allende by the junta. But the victories of left-wing coalitions still happen, as they did during Allende. The world has changed. It became tolerant because maybe the USA became tolerant. Coups have also disappeared from world practice. Or rather, the danger has disappeared because the second camp and the second-world subject, the USSR, have disappeared. Now, it has become easier to turn people over and give injections. Who can prohibit, for example, vaccination?
We state that the left has no other way to achieve power today. However, there are no leftists in the world either in the sense of the leftism of the 20th century. Once again, the world has changed. From the left, there are now only talkers, only left-wing Pharisees. Actually, this is evidence of a global crisis. In the tolerant world of democracy, individuals and intellectuals disappear. Democracy has always led to degradation everywhere. The crowd selects lecturers and idols for themselves in the system and social networks. The system leaves communist artists to play communists, and a crowd of hedonists on social networks is looking for different clowns. Therefore, bloggers want to avoid explaining, not to teach, but to gain a crowd of subscribers.
So.
Our leftists repeat the mantras of a century ago; they resemble the Pharisees of the ancient Sanhedrin of Judea. But no, the ancient Jews are no longer looking at them because the ancient Jews should talk about the Old Testament. Therefore, imitating the hoary antiquity, our left-wing lecturers automatically turned into ancient Jewish Caiaphas because reliance on old dogmas is always more reliable. This is what distinguishes the Pharisees.
The more often they repeat the old formulas of Marx and Lenin, the more they know that they are talking nonsense. We can say they hide behind the old men – Marx and Lenin. But the old people lived in a different time and environment, even if they were authoritative. This is not Ancient Judea with its thousand-year history. The world has changed rapidly in a hundred years.
What to do?
We need to figure it out.
Why do young people not want communism today? Young people want democracy and to live like in the West. Young people enjoy equal rights. Or respect for their rights.
But should the left-wing Pharisees say we are also waiting for the second coming? As they immediately accuse revisionism of others. It has already been so! They’re still talking, Marx and the dictatorship of the proletariat would win! We believe in it. Do they really believe, or are they hypocrites? Many have tried, but what happened in practice?
What? What is a dictatorship?
There were feudal peoples in the world, which means peasant peoples.
These feudal-class peoples gave the so-called socialism in the first half of the 20th century. No matter how Trotsky defied the world system with the dictatorship of the proletariat after the time of Marx, there were no proletarian peoples in the world! Therefore, former peasants always opposed Trotskyism, which became a new communist elite. Trotsky could never win (there is one condition, but it is not for this short article.). And Trotskyism could never win because the state now does not make the factories. They are part of the economy of industrial modernization. They disappear as a stage of development. If there are no factories, there is no proletariat. If there is no proletariat, there is no dictatorship. If there are no activists of history, the basic subjects of action, then go to the ballot boxes! This is the simplest explanation for the crisis of the left idea.
