[Dr. Oohay]

Has Marxism EVER worked or endured anywhere anytime? Lately read or re-read, viewed or reviewed Das Kapital (and THE Communist Manifesto, aka an ultra leftist “bible,” especially its 10 Communist measures or cures for society)? 

My dear sisters and brothers of the world,  Marxism AIN’T an answer.

This is an old archaic,silly and 

simplistic  tactic:

Brand an article as Marxist

or even communist, and 

substitute serious scholarly

analysis  with fear mongering

and discarded Cold War 

McCarthyism.

A serious, credible, academic 

approach would be to identify 

parts of the article that are illogical or

untrue; point out areas of

historical inaccuracy; and put

forward alternative ways of

looking at the phenomenon 

discussed.

We would all benefit from

such an analysis.

Dear madam, perhaps only one who fails to understand current (or historical) Sudanese politics and Davos politics would readily or cavalierly dismiss any counterposition as “archaic”. Note that chess thinking (aka deep thinking or logical/strategic thinking) AIN’T philosophical “ideological” thinking. 

 For how this logical puzzle (called chess) really works, read or re-read Eric Arthur Blair’s novel called 1984; It mostly ends with chess!!!!!! By the way, drink deep from whatever “wells” you drink but don’t drink from ONLY the wells of your idols (such as Marx/Marxism but ALSO other wells; jowever, don’t trust ANY of them ABSOLUTELY. I too have my own idols but I worship none of them.

Specifically, I suggest you review the genealogies of the RSF (Rapid Support Forces) and associated political parties (or figures such as the economist Dr. Hamdok). 

Beware and be aware of those who repeatedly invoke the term “democracy” or those who use Orwellian language to disguise so-called NEW isms or dogmas. No one has THE answer, but some of have some answers that may endure awhile. Because no person or group has THE (final) answer (once and for all), we prudentially resort to the next best or more manageable option: DEMOCRACY (aka DemocraZy). 

Echo “chambering” AIN’T authenticity (and many classes (working class, middle class, etc.)

— have increasingly caught on with this chronic (clever) trick.
