That’s just Hungarian

I lean Leninist and am frequently banned from there as well. What they espouse is fundamentally un-Marxist

The fable is wild work

This isn’t entirely accurate. What you described is a ‘socialist’ community, the so-called ‘lower stage of communism’. In this stage, there would still remain incentive based structures for labour. It employs a policy of “from each according to his ability to each according to his works”. Inequality still exists as explained by Marx here:

This equal right is still constantly stigmatized by a bourgeois limitation… one worker is married, another is not; one has more children than another… Thus, with an equal performance of labor, and hence an equal share in the social consumption fund, one will in fact receive more than another. — Critique of the Gotha Programme

It is during this lower stage that the transformation of social relations and productive forces gradually alters the motivations for labor to a more virtue-based one.

The problem most communism skeptic people have with communism is that they reason within the current modes of subsistence and assume it is impossible.

“What we have to deal with here is a communist society, not as it has developed on its own foundations, but, on the contrary, just as it emerges from capitalist society; which is thus in every respect, economically, morally, and intellectually, still stamped with the birthmarks of the old society from whose womb it emerges.” — Critique of the Gotha Programme

Marx also stated that he expected us to remain in the lower stage of communism for centuries, but it is during this stage that we prepare the productive forces to sustain communism and start producing goods for their use-value rather than for their exchange value, so that we can achieve the higher stage of communism which employs 'from each according to their ability to each according to his needs. This higher stage is truly classless because we would supposedly have solved scarcity, it would be stateless because people would organize communally to meet their needs, and it would be moneyless because the means of production and means of subsistence would be free for all to access.

In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor… has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life’s prime want… only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be fully left behind and society inscribe on its banners: ‘From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!’ — Critique of the Gotha Programme

Brother, you’re better off creating your own community or participating in other socialist oriented communities on the fediverse. I’m also a Marxist-Leninist but those guys don’t accurately use theory and distort for all their petty agenda

They’re more Marxist-Stalinists that anything else

Edit: See !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works for more on how bad that instance and it’s two siblings are

Short answer: We don’t know

Longer answer: We hope technology will be fully developed by then to do that stuff for us

So BBC, while on the cusp of censorship for “defamation of Trump”, still sees it necessary to watch his arse?

These bootlickers man

Agree for all except YT. It is unfortunately VERY VERY useful. You seem to have found a workaround that works for you though

OP didn’t do a good job of distinguishing the type of war they were referring to. Can’t blame them though

Rubbish

Even though this is rule breaking content, I’m still going to engage with it.

What you’re describing is close to an analysis done by Lenin in Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism.

Imperialism is capitalism at that stage of development at which the dominance of monopolies and finance capital is established; in which the export of capital has acquired pronounced importance; in which the division of the world among the international trusts has begun; in which the division of all territories of the globe among the biggest capitalist powers has been completed

As long as capitalism remains what it is, surplus capital will be used not for raising the standard of living of the masses, but for increasing profits by exporting capital abroad, to backward countries

The war of 1914–1918 (i.e. WW1) was an imperialist war, a war for the division of the world, for the partition and repartition of colonies and spheres of influence of finance capital, etc.

The uneven and spasmodic development of individual enterprises, individual branches of industry, and individual countries is inevitable under capitalism.

and

Peaceful alliances prepare the ground for wars, and in their turn grow out of wars; the one conditions the other

Essentially, war occurs because capitalism develops unevenly. Rising powers demand a new division of the world’s resources; leading to war. Thus, modern wars are fights over redistributing control, not defending freedom or national honor.
