Of course I know how problematic it is to realize this utopian plan, as long as people have forgotten, that they carry their animal nature around with them and are, other than nonhuman animals, able to expand and maximize their predatory drives and social darwinistic behaviour up to the limits of planetary capability.
What we have is a sad state of affairs going deeper down the drain each day - climate catastrophe in full swing yielding false solutions of green capitalism and #colonialism, imperial entities about to cross the threshold of nuclear war, a #genocide in the making while the world stands by watching how Palestinians have to endure living hell, an even greater catastrophe in Sudan that is hardly being noticed at all, #fascism rising welcomed by millions ...
And while a lot of arguments for eco socialism are valid the problem remains the same - you'd need a new kind of human to live in a non hierarchichal way without competition which always is directed against the other.
So I don't invest any hope in future designs although they have their use in reflecting my own relations to life and society
but try to stick to principles in daily life
like not exercising violence against sentient beings, to meet the requirements of a non competitive collectivism, to overcome nationalism for the sake of internationalism, to end binary gender relations and the necessity to organize in stately entities especially as they exert colonial, imperialistic and extractivistic policies.
As you have noticed I don't adhere to Marxism-Leninism - as much as I dislike authoritarian party structures I don't favor a kind of technological positivism
that today is rampant in developing productive forces like #AI that come along with promises that imo will turn out as an increase of social and military war due to the obvious crisis of late capitalism.
To summarise the tragical history of the radical left in a constructive way this text from Ill Will represents my position pretty much - but anyhow I'm no missionary in any ideological sense.
