Negate!
A DOCTRINE OF ABOLITION
The crisis is here, and all communists can feel it: the neoliberal horizon was indeed approached, and it unfolded to a battlefield.

Who’s afraid of dogma?
Kontra-sokdem The principle of the historical invariance of doctrines which reflect the tasks of protagonist classes, and also all the potent referring back to founding principles, stands opposed to the gossipy assumption that every generation and every season of intellectual fashion is more powerful than the previous one. It rejects the whole silly film show…

For An International Economic Zone
During the 19th Century, the corrupt Jurchen hegemony of the Qing dynasty dominated China, and its venal and parasitic leadership made very clear that China ought remain a place where not much happened, where their splendid supremacy over all foreign barbarity found itself in perfect evidence, the borders would remain welded shut, trade would be…

The Myth of Consensual Revolutions
A Consensual Revolution? The self-evident and banal impossibility of such a thing confronts us and laughs, spattering saliva and all, upon our faces. Only the mercenary intelligence of the by-gone Utopian Socialists and today’s decomposing Liberals alike could conjure up such an imaginary. Does the worker consent to the conditions of her life and thus…

We do not believe in ghosts, banshees, spectres, the ontological will–or,…

There Is No Professional-Managerial Class
Introduction Inasmuch as we can establish a history of ideas throughout the biblically-proportioned tragedy of the American left, the Judas appears as Barbara Ehrenreich (and her husband, John). In their diagnosis of a juvenile, middle-class ‘left’ hopped up on Evil Professional Commodities, they are often credited with the defeat of the new left itself. During…

Theses on Textwalling (What’s Our Deal)
I The chief defect of all presently existing Marxism – that of the ICP included – is that the thing, reality, articulation, is conceived only in the form of the Textwall, but not as Textwalls that make sense to people, not subjectively. Hence, in contradistinction to organisation, the active side was developed abstractly by Textwalls…
