Hello! I'm a history buff and a Marxist-Leninist. My ideology is Marxism-Leninism, more specifically Guevarism. Basically, I'm AuthLeft, economically far left, and culturally left (for the most part).

=Beliefs=

Economic Views
I believe capitalism to an exploitative force that solely enriches the wealthy of society. It stripes them of their freedom and humanity, while putting them in a what is basically de facto slavery. It might be a different business you work at, but they're all the same in motive. This is why I advocate for socialism.

I think a majority planned economy is the best economic system to use. Using computers and other types of technology, we'd be able to plan much quicker and more efficiently, especially if we used Artificial Intelligence to plan. I'd add in co-oporatives to the mix as well, which would involve workplace self-management and democracy of course.

Government
My government would be similar to that of Cuba. The vanguard (which I'm going to be getting into in a bit) would act as merely a tool to educate the population and build up socialism. Other than that, the government would be council based.

My system would work like this: The people would elect communal councils, who would elect city councils, who would elect regional/provincial councils, who would elect state councils, and then finally, elect the national legislature. The legislature would practice what is called  Democratic Centralism. This means that political decisions reached by voting processes would be binding upon all members of the political party. In simple terms, discussion and criticism would be allowed while discussing something in the legislature or party, but after a decision was reached, everyone would have to agree with it. This would allow a middle ground between centralism (keeping of the party or legislature together) and democracy (allowing discussion all the time and disagreements.

Purpose of the Vanguard
The vanguard party would be made up of professional revolutionaries and intellectuals. Why should we have such an organization to exist? Simple: The material conditions of the West currently make it so that spontaneous action isn't likely. We currently live in a post-industrial society, where not many know about Marxism besides how bad it is. The task of the vanguard would be to carry out the revolution, which would be achieved by educating workers on Marxist theory, and drumming up support for such a system. After the revolution, the party would be tasked with educating the working class, and setting up socialism. Collective leadership would be practiced in the party.

Social Issues
For the most part, I'm very progressive culturally. I'm for things like gay marriage, legalization of most drugs, abortion rights, transgender rights, etc. However, I'm for preserving some traditions that aren't reactionary.

I'm a huge Secularist, but not a  State Atheist. Religion is a powerful tool that can tear a government apart, and banning all religions will just help capitalists come and start a rebellion under the pretext of religion. That's why secularism is the best option for a socialist government, and not State Atheism.
