I can’t understand this demarcation between Left & Right Fascism. Stalinism/Hitlerism were almost identical. Surely?
Was going to ask if some of the great anti religious arguments (memes) I heard as a kid from members could be repeated here. I’ve forgotten most of them.
We are an infititesimal speck. Workers don’t even know we are “Working Class” any more. We have no sense of “Self”. No sense of anything. Just trying to survive in this System. Somethings got to give right? Well nothing so far…
What is glaringly obvious throughout all of this sorry trajectory is the complete impotence of the world’s working class. Never mind all the useless demo’s & marches begging our leaders to change. Much of the youth are immersed in Tiktok, Instagram, Video Games & Porn. Their parents are just trying to survive. I have no faith that any spark of enlightenment anywhere will surface even as climate destruction & a possible World War stare us in the face. The fact is the workers were more savvy a century ago. Even Zeitgeist which gave me hope in 2011 has petered into nothing. All is completely lost as far as I’m concerned. The only thing Lenin said which I agree with is that it would take the workers about 500 years to achieve Class Consciousness. Because they can barely achieve Trade Union consciousness now.
Now it seems Russia are arming the Houthi Rebellion amid secret talks with Iran. I know WWIII is unthinkable but things feel like a slow crescendo right now. I still maintain the Capitalist Class would never orchestrate the destruction of their own playground. Surely to God?
Speaking of him upstairs Millions of Evangelicals are rubbing their hands in glee. To hasten the apocalypse so their big pal Jesus comes back. This is the situation we are in.Equally if the Simulation theory, Multiverse Theory or Infinite Universe were ever proven to be accurate the God Squad would hijack any one of them and state “We told you so!”…
So the Universe will never end, and it never actually began? I think the idea of a Multiverse is more enticing. But like the insane question of whether we exist in a simulation or not, surely there’s no point worrying about these things because they can never be proven. Or disproven?
By “Integral Parallel Economy Project” does P Joseph just mean Co-Ops? Funnily enough I’d almost forgotten about TZM until I listened to this latest Podcast a couple days ago. I think he would turn must workers off because of his over complex way of explaining things. In fact he did turn workers off because around 2011 it really looked as if Zeitgeist was going somewhere. Then it kind of vanished.
Propaganda, Nationalism, Conspiracies, AI, Religion, UFOs, Video Games (hundreds of millions of young minds hooked), Porn, Telly, Infotainment etc. How can the Party possibly make itself heard in the midst of never ending deafening distraction behemoth?
Even if they took the time to read the Leaflet the SPGB would be written off as cranks by 99% of workers. The minute they read the word “Socialism” it’s the kiss of death. Most don’t even know they are living in a social system never mind being able to define Capitalism (or Socialism for that matter). It’s fuckin hopeless.
<em class=”d4pbbc-italic”>It strikes me as odd that we’re not happy that the Conservatives have got a kicking.
Could you tell us why the party <em class=”d4pbbc-italic”>should be happy? I’m not a member but even I know there’s very little difference between the Conservatives, Labour and all the other parties seeking to reform capitalism.

Capitalist parties like the ones you’ve mentioned do not seek to reform Capitalism but to administrate it. Why should it worry you anyway? Fron what I’ve read from your previous posts it’s like you love Capitalism. Always rubbing it in that the SPGB have failed utterly. You should spit your vitriol instead at the SWP or any other Leftist outfit because their utopian fantasies (Sanitised Capitalism) haven’t been realised either. And never will be.
Have you noticed how newscasters now double as gameshow hosts? This is the Info-tainment society we now inhabit.
