  • You had an interesting debate, but if I may, I think that looking for someone to blame is misleading.

    Firm moving offshore, allowing China to have economical power is a structural effect. A firm earn money in doing so, a country earn power in doing so. Blaming one firm or one countries will, at most, make another one do the same thing afterward. The incentives are still there, so the outcome shall be the same. We have to build other incentive to make thing change

    You underlined how governments could reduce this incentive, but their is 2 issue :

    • without pression from direct action like strikes, blockade, sabotage or protests, vote would not work : People in charge relinquish to do so. They carrer depend of the economical growth, and their social environment (the bourgeoisie) taught them not to. Attacking the economy or what they think is the “social order”, could work
    • industrial and international mobilization of the workers is needed Workers from “the west” and the production center, like China, have common interests : better wages and working conditions in China will make corporation stay and let workers in “the west” have more jobs and space to mobilize for their own working conditions. Furthermore, the solidarity built internationally will help those mobilizations. You may thing it’s too jate if the firm have moved. It is not. Production have to be brought, distribute and sold. This is the working place that could have an impact. And this is an “industrial mobilization”

    I kind of agree; actions matters, world shall support. However, actions of many have to be coordinated to aime the same goal. And to do so, we shall be clear of the ideal we want. Hitler do not want to abolish capitalism, but you could have a fascist state that tax the rich. Without upper hand, confusions is counter productive

    I don’t understand why those 2 definitions are excluding; if the last thing that enforce everything is the collective force, it means that everything has been built to be protected by the collective force. Legit violence is what is structuring everything else. It means that when justice have to choose between defending the police and the army (the wole institutions), it will defend it.
