Fascism has a very clear definition. And who decides the malcontents? That's also easy: Are you trying to harm people? Then you are a malcontent.
You are attempting to obfuscate the discussion here. We all know what fascism is. We also all know its wrong to hurt people.
Communism requires no state, no class, and no money. So, yes, all communist theory calls for the abolishment of the state.
Lenin started the authoritarianism of the USSR by 1923
Lenin started earlier than that... It started almost right after the Black Army aided the Red Army to defeat the White Army... The Red Army turned around, and murdered workers in the Black Army, because "They didn't do socialism, and went right to implementing full communism"...
Chiapas doesn't seem to be failing. Going on 30 years now. Rojava isn't failing either, due to it's system, but rather being attacked on the regular by imperialist nations like Russia and the US.
Because thats the end result of embiggening the state: The state gets bigger, and the oligarchs just changes faces.
It was something Marx remarked on later, post Paris Commune.
Group efforts to root out fascism or other malcontents is hardly "Orwellian"....
Deplatforming works.
Being a Reich Winger is incompatible with rational or thoughtful discussion.
Reich wing ideology boils down to subservience and deference to authority, not knowledge.
Shit, they can do a lemmy or kbin instance, it would fit their format anyways. Post link from their domain, and it gets shared across the network.
News outlets should be spinning up their own federated social media instances, so that THEY control their own platform, akin to a website, or email addresses.
That solves all of their issues with it.
Dunno about liberals, but I don't like hanging out at nazi bars.
Oh, I get what Marx had said... Marx also changed his view post Paris Commune. He started down the track that its impossible to abolish the state, after concentrating all power in the state, as those holding power will never give it up.
And yes, governance is not the state, and yes, Marx later agreed with that point, as well.
