The classic one about mass immigration would be The Camp of Saints by Jean Raspail https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Camp_of_the_Saints But also a lot of Houellebecq's stuff, Submission, of course, but before that - Platform, which deals with similar issues. Interestingly enough G.K...

I would say that the ultimate one, written from within the belly of the beast, has to be Foundation Pit by Andrei Platonov. A truly great but somewhat forgotten book. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Foundation_Pit Also this one by the same author - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevengur...

https://citiesofmaking.com/think-manufacturing-in-london-is-no-more/ Since 1971, when manufacturing accounted for 17% of jobs in London (or 870,000), the sector has shrunk by 85%. While most of the damage was done before the 1990s, the hollowing out of the sector continued until recently...

And as for organizing the dispossesed mass of immigrants and suchlike, which is partially your vision, worth remembering what Marx himself said about lumpenproles: essentially parasitical group was largely the remains of older, obsolete stages of social development, and that it could not...

Yeah, so fusion on TWO outmoded conceptions. Because you don't have any real answer how marixsm could be applied to the present rentier, financial, dematerialized and thoroughly micro-managed mode of capitalism where there is no manufacturing base to be taken over anymore.

Oh yeah, the great defender of the working man - comrade Stalin. Western communism is one of the funniest meme subcultures ever, it's like teenage goths but red. Next to impossible to take any of it seriously. I can only refer to the great Bulgakov who created the best possible portrayl of...

Yeah, I agree, it's probably a sham.

Well, of course there is a theoretical way out, the maga communism shtick and all that. I cannot take it seriously since he's such a dishonest crank and America is probably too deep into idiocracy, but I see way many are able to see a potential there. Although I may be wrong about this one, and...

Also, as I mentioned before, most of us are sort of capitalists in one way or another; or at least it's not very hard to become one these days.

Well, ok, but what machinery and products are we talking about here? 80% of UK's economy is service sector, in the rest of Europe and in the USA it's roughly 75%. And if you look at the tiny manufacturing sector that still exists, those proper blue collar jobs are usually well paid and no one...

That Daniel Johntson song is a real gem, but also this one comes to mind: In Casle Bran, Transylvania On Saint Swithens day he was born Eyes stare through the darkness with no form Necks his bite horns

It's not exactly like Henry Ford who surveyed the land where his factories are gonna be built and decided on the colour of the bricks, planned the manufacturing process from A to Z and ruled his business in a dictatorial manner reminiscent of a Roman emperor, isn't it? So there's deffo a...

Ok, but if you would go on one of those apps and buy a 1 pound worth of shares in, dunno, "Tesla" would that make you a part of capitalist class? Musk, who is the richest man on the planet, owns roughly 20% of "Tesla" shares and he technically can be fired by majority shareholder decision...

No one who actually has engaged with those works of elite thinkers (most of them ex-marxists themselves) fails to understand these truisms. But it dosen't change aything as far as their conclusions regardig managerial elites go. (I promise I won't quote Sam Francis gain, but this is just too...

It's good, I like it. I make similar instrumentals sometimes.

This is real materialism not the innane mystifications you're engaging in:

Ever since the political philosopher James Burnham published his seminal book The Managerial Revolution in 1941, theorists of the managerial regime have noted strong underlying similarities between all of the major modern state systems that emerged in the 20th century, including the system of...

But essentially your problem is that, and I don't mean it in any kind of offensive way, can't grasp the actual power relations within our society. Many such cases. The realignment of the elite with the underclass, particularly its non-white components, was a necessary part of the period of...

I hardly care about race, probably somewhat less than the average person, my reason for being against mass immigration are much more prosaic - it's a weapon in the hands of the ruling class that is used to bludgeon their subjects. Quite simple. Left with all their insanities is also such a...
