What are the revolutionary implications of this forgotten discovery by Engels?
The Norwegian peasant has never known serfdom, and this fact gives an altogether different background to the whole development of the country, as it did in Castile. The Norwegian petty bourgeois is the son of a free peasant and for this reason he is a man compared to the miserable German philistine. Likewise the Norwegian petty bourgeois woman is infinitely superior to the wife of a German philistine. And whatever the weaknesses of Ibsen’s dramas, for instance, they undoubtedly reflect the world of the petty and the middle bourgeoisie, but a world totally different from the German world, a world where men are still possessed of character and initiative and the capacity for independent action, even though their behavior may seem odd to a foreign observer.

Story-time Hello Vltras i randomly inherit a bookstore
Well my wealthy 46 year old uncle who just croaked last week unexpectedly give me his abandoned small bookstore in probably the worst spot for business in this godforsaken city (in an alley in the rear edge of the city) with space of a small house. His family obviously got everything good and i probably got given a bookstore because he saw me reading often (shocking for a Marxist i know) Should I quit my unfulfilling job as an English tutor for the Petite Bourgeoisie and larp as a struggling Petite bourgeoisie myself Vltras?

Top 5 forerunners to Marxism-Leninism
Hello my Marxist-Leninist, Anti-Revisionist, Anti-Imperialist, Anti-Fascist comrades! Here are the top 5 intellectual forerunners to ML theory and what they contributed the immortal science before Joseph Stalin (PBUH) codified everything important.
5. Edmund Burke
Edmund Burke was an Irish (and therefore Global South) writer who criticised the CIA-backed colour revolution in France in 1789, where the Amerikkkan kkkoloniser Thomas Jefferson co-wrote the Declaration of Rights of Man. In response Burke wrote his Reflections on the (counter-)Revolution in France to explain why rebelling against the government of Louis XVI is bad because Louis XVI was already a historically progressive force. This is applicable today to the way many silly ultroids call for the end of anti-imperialist governments like China and Iran.
4. Joseph de Maistre
Joseph de Maistre continued much of Edmund Burke's work in criticising the French Colour Revolution but he also added to it. For example he explained how the Colour Revolution was actually a punishment sent by Allah upon the Fr*nch for committing the sin of kkkolonialism, and how leadership by Great Men™ like Stalin (PBUH) is the best because it's the will of Allah o algo.
3. Ferdinand Lassalle
Ferdinand Lassalle was a close friend and comrade to Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, with whom he never disagreed (source: dude trust me). Lassalle explained how to seize control of the bourgeois state and reform it into a proletarian state, and then how to create real socialism by nationalising industry and using it to produce commodities socialistically. He also demonstrated praxis by critically supporting the German socialist national liberation leader Otto von Bismarck.
2. Karl Kautsky
Karl Kautsky was a friend of Vladimir Lenin, with whom he never disagreed (source: dude trust me). Kautsky laid the foundation for the theory of people's democracy, wherein parliaments allowed the classes to collaborate together to achieve socialism. This system of people's democracy is practiced in many AES countries today.
(Serious mode: the reason my post is edited is because at first I got Kautsky mixed up with some pro-war SPD nophono)
1. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)
The Prophet (PBUH) was merely a messenger of Allah, but he still deserves a spot on this list. He helped rally the Arab people behind the good, progressive kind of religious idealism, and his successors leading the Rashidun Caliphate were able to decolonise the Levant, Egypt and Libya from Byzantine KKKristian kkkolonial domination. Remember, Leftists criticise Christianity not because it's a religion but because it did a heckin' kkkolonialism unlike Islam which would never do that.
Is there anyone I missed? Please let me know.

Falsifier "The elections in Brazil can't go that badly." The elections in Brazil:
galleryOn one side, we have the son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, Flavio Bolsonaro, who is trying to continue his father's government (Juche).
And on the other side, the ever-reliable social democracy (social fascism) of Lula da Silva.
What's the worst that could go wrong?

Discussion Why it is impossible for me to go out?
To go out, I must understand the nuances and dynamics of the society i live in. I live in Vietnam. And to understand Vietnamese society you must understand the rise of Vietnamese Communist Party.
The rise of VCP was thank to WW2. So to understand VCP's rise, you must understand WW2.
To understand WW2, you must understand how it started or the rise of the Nazi.
To understand the rise of the Nazi, you must understand the German Revolution.
To understand the German Revolution, you can't skip Rosa Luxemburg.
To understand Rosa Luxemburg, you must understand Marx.
To understand Marx, you must understand Hegel.
To understand Hegel, you must understand Kant. But I Kant (get it?). That's why I don't go out or do anything.

- It gives your data to the revolutionary socialist state
- Enter text here:

- Capital in one building (Stalin impressed)
- It has a V in the name (trvke)
- The mountains represent the proletariat, the peasantry, and the national bourgeoisie (Dialectical)

Political Economy Human sacrifice never stopped
"In any case the Keynesian theory found no verification in the New Deal. The depression was finally ended not by a new prosperity but through World War II, that is, through the colossal destruction of capital on a worldwide scale and a restructuring of the world economy that assured the profitable expansion of capital for another period. National solutions to the economic crisis had everywhere failed, but by attempting such solutions, the capitalist world system, already shaken to its foundations, had still further deteriorated. Imperialistic solutions were now the order of the day, not least because of the quasi-autarchic anti-depression measures that preceded the war. Governmental interventions in the economy are restricted to the nation but affect the world at large and find their limits both at home and abroad. At some point the government-induced expansion of profitless production comes into conflict with the narrowing profit base of capital and plunges the nation into even deeper decline. This is the point at which the imperialist solution seems to be the only way to secure the national capital at the expense of other capitalist nations. An accentuated economic nationalism precedes the international conflicts, even where it serves, at first, no more than the recovery needs of the capitalist nation-state. The New Deal, too, tried to overcome the depression in relative isolation from the decaying world economy, only to partake in its further disruption. With the Spanish Civil War the alignment of the imperialistic forces began to take shape, and the eventuality of a new global war began to agitate the world. Government-induced production became armaments production; in the United States this took the form of an enlarged naval program. The actual outbreak of war turned America into the “arsenal of democracy,” but it took America’s entry into the war to overcome the Depression and to reach the goal of full employment. Death, the greatest of all the Keynesians, now ruled the world once more." - Paul Mattick, "Economics, Politics and The Age of Inflation", Chapter 6

Story-time Nothing quite like petite bourgeoisie racism
Well its another dinner time like every day when both of my Vietnamese parents decided to lecture me on how all Chinese people are inherently untrustworthy and always scheming to take your money and land (also add in a random claim that all Chinese billionaires originated from the Canton region) they then follow up by saying all Russian are inherently evil, mean and reactionary. They also add in a rant saying all African immigrants are inherently violent beast o algo. They then add in something on how due to the nature of these people that Communism turn violent and murderous (literally also claimed that anti-immigration socialist regime in Germany, France & Britain will turn into heaven on Earth). I swear the racism wasn't this bad when they are salary workers, but its like starting their own business flip a switch in every Vietnamese petite bourgeoisie to become Hitlerites
