    This time around we must create a universal currency for mankind and not for sovereign nations of the world.

      Currencies are not communist. Money was one of the pitfalls of existing socialism. Apart from reinforcing capitalist thinking, it doesn't work. "I have so much money, but nothing to do with it!" Especially today, communism must produce with a plan by taking into account the raw resources at hand and not some budget.

    I thought Britain came out of EU to re-gain sovereignty😂
    Obviously not the case

      Well said. However who has the guts to do that? None of the political elite. KS is obviously working for the US Deep State/MIC. It would be brilliant if the UK could move away from the US though.

    I'm an economic reductionist. Britain has tued itself to America for economic reasons... Specifically capitalist class economic reasons .
    Britain supporta Israel because British Imperialist capitalism requires the control of West Asian trade routes over land and sea.

      The Suez "choke point" was seen as key to global domination in the 19th century, and formalised by analysts like Halford McKinder around 1900.

    i have a question for comunists these days, as an anti imperialist , internationalist and citizen of the world myself, my question is, are comunists gonna make free and democratic societies this time around with free, fair and transparent elections if they get into power, or are they gonna revert back into absolute dictatorships once again with millions beeing persecuted and killed as a result of political oppression and obtuze economic policies ,in some instances, that are not allowed to be critiqued, or even worse, used as weapons against their own citizens. not to mention the past internal imperialism of the russians within the soviets , and even present in china with the uighurs tibetans mongolians and other various nationalities that are slowly beeing sinified and displaced in china.

      Ну, если вы про СССР, то там, вроде до 1936г., были органы - советы. Туда рабочие от завода выбирали депутатов. На мой взгляд, весьма демократично. Но про политические репрессии, отсутствие критики очень раздутая тема. Сталина критиковали, насколько мне известно. Он сам критиковал экономику в книге "Проблемы социалистической экономики в СССР" (сам я не читал, просто знаю, что про это). Голода были объективным обстоятельством, а не злым умыслом. В любом случае, у коммунистов достаточно опыта, чтобы не повторять ошибки прошлого

      Your first mistake is assuming socialist states like China is undemocratic. Your second mistake is assuming that the western liberal procedures like elections is always democratic without examining the results of these procedures. You are more concern with the procedure and appearance of democracy, which is the control of society and its elements like the economy, culture and other insinuations by the people. Nothing in there say it can only be achieved strictly by western liberal methods, which has been proven time and time again to produce undemocratic results. Western liberal system of "free elections" are almost always immediately hijacked by the capitalist bourgeoisie and turned into a farce. Their results are often undemocratic, their government unpopular, and their actions deeply anti-social, anti-people. The west have done everything that you listed and more.
      Yet, in China, they have a system that have produce a cadre of highly competent, very smart and professional and most importantly, studied their socialist materials well enough to understand how to practice socialist democracy. The results have been stunning and vindicated Chinese democracy and socialism with Chinese characteristic. 800 over million people uplifted from poverty, created the most dynamic economy in human history, expanded the productive value of the people, educated the Chinese to the level they have never been educated, and enjoy approval rating in the 80 to even over 90%.
      And yet it is normal in the west to cast that country as undemocratic, because the CPC is the most dominant party (for many good reasons) and they don't follow the same western liberal procedures to choose their leaders and worst, they don't obey capitalistic ideologies to the letter and they refuse to give any political power to their capitalists and subjugate their capitalists' worst tendencies and make them work for the people of China.
      And yet, they are not a democracy in the western eye.
      That's BS.

      You are not writing the truth about China. Uighurs, Tibetans and Mongolians and other ethnic groups are not being sinified or displaced. The western media is very skilled at filling people's heads full of total rubbish. I have lived in China since 2000 and know that these groups retain their culture, religions and live better than many people who have had their lives destroyed by western intervention in other parts of the planet.

    Lenins writings were theoretical, then reality hit. Do I understand it correctly you are Leninist, revolutionary Marxist - or do you accept Bernsteins progressive socialism. Im really interested as a Social Democrat myself (and I do get the critique about the liberal democracy).

    "we fight imperialism with working class struggle"
    but you dont, though. when has working class struggle taken on the hegemony of empire and succeeded?

      if you promote this idea that "both sides are equally imperialist" - when the crises are being driven by one-side, youre going to force people to choose one of the sides and theyre going to of course pick the side they live in by-default - the side that is driving the world to the brink entirely because it is losing hegemony.
