The collapse gap that we must close is between the Soviets that collapsed and the US that didn’t yet.
something is very off in that article
Definitely written by a liberal or worse. But they make great points, outside of calling USSR an evil empire et al ad nauseum
Reducing the USSR to just Russia, claiming that this “Russia” was somehow not ethnically diverse, Solshenizin soloing the USSR - according to the author, the usual ramblings about muh inefficient government factories, the pink lensed idea of how the US handles protest and dissent.
Yeah, I get what you mean.
Do elaborate.
some parts of it sounds like social chauvinism.
This reminds me of China Miéville’s project, Salva☭e, which may have petered out last year.
Salvage is a bi-annual journal of revolutionary arts and letters.
Salvage recognises that the catastrophe is already upon us and that the decisive struggle is over what to do with the remains.
Salvage is for a communism of the ruins.I think that’s a good perspective to have on things. The collapse is the most likely scenario, so the focus should be on what to do after.
And how to survive. To realize any plans for the “after” you need to make it that far first.
