Can We Have Revolutionary Hope? 06.10.2021 41:51
In this episode I hit on a topic that I’ve personally been struggling with myself. I often times am incredibly pessimistic, and it’s very hard not to be. With everything that’s going wrong in the world today, with everything each one of us has had to experience during our lives, especially during this pandemic, it makes it very difficult to remain hopeful. But I would like to say that it is one of...

Are the Masses Truly “Ignorant”? 04.10.2021 42:02
In this episode we go over the common claim that the masses are simply “too ignorant” for Socialism and Marxism. This is an absolutely absurd claim that is intentionally unfalsifiable so as to promote inaction. The only thing that will fix the “stupidity” of the masses is folks educating and organizing them! So let’s go do that, go do mass work and build a grassroots, organized, Proletarian Revolu...
No. More. Compromises. 30.09.2021 1:13:48
Social democracy will never be enough. The only thing that we can hope for within the belly of the beast, is the fall of the empire. The only thing that can bring that is true revolution, and the only thing that will bring true revolution is the organized masses, the popular and supported people who are militant and disciplined, and fueled by Marxism and scientific Socialism. We need revolution, a...

People Aren’t “Stupid” They’re Made Ignorant 26.09.2021 56:35
In this episode we go over one of my most awful habits, and some thing that those of us all over the world continue to support which is this mentality that some people are just stupid, or that some people are just ignorant. And that the reason why the working an oppressed people are suffering in the world is because they themselves are ignorant, and therefore it is their ignorance that is truly th...
Go Fucking Organize! 25.09.2021 55:01
In this episode I go into a brief historical example to prove the point as to why we need to not only mobilize the masses, but we need to organize them, and we need to organize them on a Marxist/communist political line, and dedicate those efforts towards overthrowing the ruling class and building the dictatorship of the proletariat!! Go fucking organize!
*BONUS* The Difficulties of Fighting Capitalist Indoctrination 24.09.2021 56:07

Understanding Socialism a Bit Better 23.09.2021 59:23
In this episode I try to go into a easily understandable but diverse explanation as to why socialism and its rationale, it’s motive production and it’s social, political, and economic organization is far better in every way imaginable then capitalism. I try to explain why to the best of my ability, as I have before, but I feel every time that I learn something new I am able to add to this conversa...
Mental Health Under Capitalism: What can we do? 20.09.2021 38:24

AOC’s Stupid Dress and a Discussion on Opportunism 14.09.2021 41:27
In this episode I use the stupid fucking dress that AOC wore to the gala the other night as an example as to how the ruling class elites use popular sentiment and slogan nearing to try to convince the masses that they actually intend on changing things. But in fact we as communists know that as contradictions rise and consciousness begins to heighten the re-formation and re-organization of the rul...

Combating the Dominant Paradigm: We Need Revolution, Now! 08.09.2021 51:11
In this episode I discuss why so many of our friends, family, coworkers and others in our lives are so incredibly convinced that, firstly, Capitalism developed “naturally” and therefore, secondly, can not be taken down. No matter how bad it gets, no matter how large the gap between rich and poor gets, no matter how many ecological disasters that happen, “it is what it is”, right? Well, I say wrong...

Why We Fight the Dominant Ideology 29.08.2021 50:48

But that’s a lie, and that lie serves a purpose. The ruling class wants us to believe that...
Freedom for Whom? 26.08.2021 24:35
In this episode I briefly go over the myth of freedom under our current form of democracy, and also the ridiculousness of the claim that capitalism is a free market system which allows for the free competition of all. We should always be asking ourselves “Freedom for whom?”
