Where Have I Been?

Soviet -ХВПП- — Mon, 03 Feb 2014 12:23:15 +0000

For the last few months, I've been absent from Steam.

Well, not actually...
I've just been using Steam from my alternate account, which has since become my main.

You can find me here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/FromRussiaWithStyle/

Now, this is for a plethora of reasons, two of which I'll outline in brief:

I felt like I was going through a serious personality change. A lot of things changed very rapidly about my life, and it became necessary for me to make a serious reevaluation of where I was headed, where I was coming from, and who I actually was and was becoming as a person. The conclusion I have made, is that my life's purpose is a fulltime dedication to hardcore revolutionary work.
I then began to get majorly involved in actual political struggle. I joined a party, and have been getting more and more involved in on-the-street activism ever since.

So, that's my explanation. Now, to offer a way ahead for BNB and anyone interested in its future.

Marxism–Leninism–Maoism: A New Group Purely For Social Interaction

My primary realization was that I was wasting energy with BNB. At first, I thought an relatively small, international group of communists could change something. Anything. But, realistically, how could anything be done through a loose connection of gamers on the Steam Community, most of which have very little serious training in Marxist thought and theory? Not much.

I realized my efforts would be better directed to something more useful (Namely, political activism in my own life and in my own country), so I've been planning a bit, and this is what I've come up with: Marxism–Leninism–Maoism. A group that does not propagate itself as the next Messiah, or the most relevant internationale since the Comintern. Let's build a real community of communists on Steam!

If you want to get involved, join up.

A Better, More Appropriate Communist Community: Marxism–Leninism–Maoism

Soviet -ХВПП- — Mon, 03 Feb 2014 12:16:11 +0000

What is BNB? Is it a political action group, or a club on Steam Community?

In an effort to get beyond this faux political activism charade, I'm starting up a less serious community called MLM. It's simple: You join and you connect with other communists.

The community is more lenient, which I believe will foster a better atmosphere.

However, it's still a communist-centred group.

Gaming with comrades will be a focus, as well as discussions, collective learning, and other community-type activities.

I urge you to join MLM and get connected!

EU Proposes To Ban Communism

Gazhevski — Fri, 01 Nov 2013 13:55:08 +0000

"They’re proposing that there should be a new law on civil liberties and that this should make it a criminal offence for anyone to propose or promote communism."
—Systematic Capital

This is the limit, even though it's probably not the maximum. We can expect some more Hitlerite things from the EU, for our European comrades (including myself), there is only one answer: Action.

PREVIOUS MONTH: AUGUST SOTD ROUNDUP

U.S. Government Shuts Down

Soviet -ХВПП- — Wed, 02 Oct 2013 06:41:14 +0000

Obama addressed the nation earlier this week and announced that the U.S. Congress is shutting down

Obama's message: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQJ3DC-AM3c

Military operations will continue, government workers will still collect a cheque, but as far as policy-making and day-to-day government functions go, the U.S. is basically on indefinite hiatus

Some people are blaming Obama, some people are blaming Congress—but we know the real culprit is neither the executive or legislative powers—capitalism is to blame

Maybe we can finally look forward to the future, comrades. Now is our chance to strike hard
