Im in my first year of college in the USA and I want out of here. I feel like anything I learn in college here will just be exploited by capitalists if I stay here. Should I stay in college here or look to get out earlier. If I stay should I change my major from computer science to computer engineering. If I leave how do I actually get to china/ gain citizenship there?

      Hyper moralism is certainly the indication of a good ideological understanding.

      Snideness aside…what? What type of fucking logic is this? Don’t try to…improve your life? What? If the chinese people allow immigration, then what goddamn moral grandstanding is it to be like “no they shouldn’t let you in because you’re profiting off their hard work.” Thats not marxist logic, that’s not even any logic. It’s pure foolishness. People are up voting this complete garbage? Did people here get concussed between yesterday and now?

      Edit: This is also coming from the same people who are like “oh America will never have a revolution ever” or just “nuke america.” People wondered why i had that outburst a couple months ago and this is why.

          pal some of us want to leave because we’re at risk of being murdered by our government, not because we have less treats

          be serious

              Then you should understand that Americans aren’t unique in this respect.

              Do you think if the average Russian peasant had sufficient treats they would have still overthrown the Tsar?

              Of course not because you and I know that the whole point of giving the proles more treats is to prevent revolution. If it didn’t work social democracy as a movement would not exist.

              Likewise you and I both know that as the treats dry up the proles become more radically-inclined. Americans aren’t special in this regard and it’s bizarre to act like we’re being uniquely selfish when this is literally how it works: treats or revolution.

              How willing a people are to overthrow their oppressive government depends entirely on how much they’re able to stomach that oppression.

          You’re assuming things about op that can’t be gotten from the post. How do you know their lineage? They could be descended from any number of people who didnt enjoy those spoils either. The only thing is that they’re “wealthy” enough to go to college and emmigrate.

          Also, exodus of skilled workers has been a weapon employed by the imperialist nations for decades now. From east Berlin to former yugoslavia brain drains have been an active threat. Why can’t progressive people act in the same way?

          And it’s a wierd catch 22, you’re not allowed to leave and live in a self sufficient country that doesn’t rely on mass imperialism, but also if they live in the imperial core they’re morally responsible for the system they were born into.

      I’m not sure i agree. Taking Nazi-Germany for example, i wouldn’t say it was a smart decision to stay for most people. It was basically suicide. Ok, the USA are different, but the fear is the same.

      We need the support of the masses and looking at the liberals i’m not sure whether they’ll turn on us (insert “no, don’t trust the liberals. They’ll betray you”-meme here).

      Sometimes one must fight and sometimes one must retreat to fight another day (see mao).
