We haven't posted in a while as we can no longer support staying here. We're moving to the blue app, find us there under the same name. So long and thanks for all the catnip!
We are revolutionaries, not prophets, and it is through our actions that the workers will learn to respect our theory. It is through practical work only that our theory will remain vital, constantly checked and renewed
The bankrupt “leaders” of socialism and syndicalism, yesterday’s revolutionists of the phrase, today’s docile capitulators, place the blame for their renegacy not upon themselves, but upon – the proletariat.
Capitalism does not work to develop technology, in general; instead, it develops only those kinds of machines that abet its economic, social, and political interests.

The working class youth is particularly well-qualified for these great tasks. As the future generation they will indeed, quite certainly, already constitute the real foundation of the socialist economy.
But to push ahead to the victory of socialism we need a strong, activist, educated proletariat, and masses whose power lies in intellectual culture as well as numbers.
What do you call a cat that likes to eat beans? A Purr-ito. #caturday
The existence of a hereditary monarchy helps to prop up all the privilege and patronage that corrupts our society; that is why the crown is seen as being of such importance to those who run the country - or enjoy the privileges it affords.
Why did the Marxist cat refuse to chase mice? Because it believed in seizing the means of purr-duction, not in pouncing on the proletariat!
Capitalist production, therefore, develops technology, and the combining together of various processes into a social whole, only by sapping the original sources of all wealth - the soil and the labourer.
The bourgeoisie has through its exploitation of the world market given a cosmopolitan character to production and consumption in every country.
The representation of private interests abolishes all natural and spiritual distinctions by enthroning in their stead the immoral, irrational and soulless abstraction of a particular material object and a particular consciousness which is slavishly subordinated to this object.
Fighting for women’s suffrage, we will also hasten the coming of the hour when the present society falls in ruins under the hammer strokes of the revolutionary proletariat.
Surrealism expresses a contradictory (illogical) view of reality. It seeks to express the element of violence and savagery that lurks underneath the thin veneer of bourgeois civilization.
Shame is a kind of anger turned in on itself. And if a whole nation were to feel ashamed it would be like a lion recoiling in order to spring.

@MarxistCats As long as they don’t interbreed with the soft bourgeois housecats (like their predecessors)
It turns out that strange women distributing swords IS a basis for a system of government, and supreme power is derived from farcical ceremonies.
@MarxistCats I think I see the problem here. You need some better ram and some cat nip.
Conference season is starting. So far I've only agreed to one in-person event, the rest are online. I'm not sure how I feel about live audiences any more.
@neilturkewitz So if you really want to ask me for an ethical stand, here is mine. Adopt openness. Accept remix culture. Free everything you can. Stop landlords. Liberen a las llamas!
@neilturkewitz I practice what I preach. All of my works are available online for free, wherever I can they have a permissive licence that allows reuse. I don't ask everyone to follow my morals, but that is my moral stand.
@neilturkewitz I can only talk about the legality because I come from an entirely different moral viewpoint to yours, I'm a socialist, commoner, and openness advocate. So from my moral standpoint there should be no copyright, it is a vehicle of capitalist oppression.
@neilturkewitz I don't think that it's a mixed message, I think that the training is lawful as it stands right now, as I explain in my article (and I admit that many will disagree with this). I advocate for opt-outs and the development of technical tools, and I think that we will get there.
@neilturkewitz But that's precisely what social democracy means, using public funds to get everyone's standards up, which means taxation and sharing resources. Amazon pays taxes, we can pay artists. Large corporations are the antithesis of sharing: Meta, Shell, Disney, Warner, etc
@neilturkewitz The biggest trick capitalism ever played was to convince artists into asking for more copyright.
@neilturkewitz People mistake my very honest legal interest in the technology and its social implications, for an endorsement of the capitalist structures that prop up the current system. There's a reason I've never knowingly taken a penny from big tech.
