    Soviet Union bureaucracy was not the proletariat, they didn’t use the mop to produce commodities, so they didn’t have proletarian class consciousness. Whatever interests they had, it was not working class interests. Lenin, Trotsky and Sverdlov were one nobleman and two petty bourgeoisie.

    Rule of law is about having a culture of respect for law as a legitimate product of democratic institutions

    Law is a product of the government beating the shit out of people who break its rules. Since there’s no world government, international law doesn’t really exist.










  • The next election is the mechanism that makes them fulfill the promises they’ve made during their campaign

    Why are you saying this? Who’s the target audience of this bs? What makes you say that if it’s demonstrably false? Elected politicians don’t keep their promises, they just don’t.

    If your politicians aren’t afraid of losing the next election

    Is Trump scared to loose the next election?

    what is wrong with me hiring someone to hire more people?

    It’s perfectly fine, but unrelated to the question at hand. You don’t hire politicians.

    What is your counterargument other than “no”?

    “No” is actually a stronger argument than yours bc you’re making a positive statement here and the burden of proof is on you.

    You can’t own people, you never did, what are you trying to ask here?

    I dunno. I guess your initial analogy was shit that explained nothing. Don’t use analogies then.
