ART IS FANATICISM WHICH DEMANDS DIPLOMACY
ALL INFORMATION IS PROPAGANDA
Thank you, Zizek, for getting to the heart of it. It's amazing how much shit I've gotten from my fellow revolutionaries for liking a "Nazi/White Power" band.
I swear, irony and parody are so lost on Communists these days. -

Kasama is a communist project for the forcible overthrow and transformation of all existing social conditions. We are open to learning, unafraid to admit our own uncertainties. We will not shrink from what we do know: the solutions cannot be found within the current world order or the choices it provides. We are for revolution. We seek to find the forms of organization and action for the people most dispossessed by this system to free themselves and all humanity.
To take this road, we need a fearless, open-eyed debate, discussion and engagement. We need fresh analyses of the rapid changes shaping the world around us. We need to sum up a century of revolutionary strategies and attempts, victories and defeats – instead of the conventional wisdom and facile verdicts that paralyze our movements. We need to re-imagine a radical politics that can take life among people and move mountains.
