Even people who understand things such the eventual abolition of war still operate under the assumption that specific crimes such as rape or theft will still continue to exist under advanced socialism or even communism, which is a bad analysis because those things only exist because of class society. Some acts we frown upon now such as killing will continue to happen, since it happened in original communism as well. What is realistic is to expect social organization to return to what it was under original communism - the high egalitarianism, gender and sexual diversity and liberation, and improved health both mentally and physically.

I had the misfortune of discovering about FinnishBolshevik's misogynist fantasies, and I won't elaborate too much on this platform (because it isn't the place for it) but I decided to make an example out of him to teach everyone about the question of sexual violence as it pertains to actually existing socialism.

Certain individuals on the so-called "Left", and people such as this man, have something in common with Liberals and the Reactionary Right Wing. That is: the glorification of sexual violence, gender oppression, and abuse of children. Right away, we must be clear that such tendencies are the product of class society and have no place in communism. Of course, it is not surprising that individuals growing up within class society will have these reactionary tendencies lodged into their psyches. However, to choose to entertain them is not a neutral act, it is a dirtying of the mind and is obscene and un-Marxist. It can only lead to revisionist tendencies of either the right or left. Self-cultivation is an important part of what makes a person a good communist, and this is the opposite of self-cultivation. Every real communist seeks to extricate the reactionary indoctrination of the class society they grew up in. We can't blame anyone for being indoctrinated, but we do hold comrades accountable to the beautiful principles they claim to represent.

Under socialism, rape was at an all time low; in fact for the first time in the modern world not only in USSR many laws started to be passed around the world against rape and other misogynist crimes, probably because of the success that socialism was for women of the USSR the rest of the world thought to catch up. Also, women had better more satisfying sex lives under socialism. Che Guevara famously executed rapists in his army if any were found, and any sex (even consensually) with women in the places where the Red Army fought was also strictly prohibited.

There's no power fantasy in being a Soviet official, soldier, guard or even commander. Soviet officers did not harm women, or others, not even during times of war or gulag sentencing. The Red Army was a proletarian organization by and for the people. To be such an instrument of the people is never to indulge in rotten behavior towards another human being, but to be nothing more than a conduit to carry out justice and karma. When billionaires are executed in the PRC, they stand trial before the entire nation as they are delivered their sentence. The judgment comes from a higher place of serving humanity, not from base selfishness.

Liberals and Fascists love Nazi prison guards. That's why Jordan Peterson's talks about Nazi prison guards a lot. FinnBol was acting out the Black Book of Communism propaganda in his fantasy when he roleplayed as a "Soviet" prison guard. The reality is that this is a Nazi fantasy disguised in Soviet clothing. There is no world in which USSR would have permitted such behavior. But it was common for the Nazis, and there are people who back in the 1900s used to cosplay as Nazis for sexual encounters, even showing up to Pride in such clothing to roleplay as Nazi prison guards. Misogyny taken to its extreme here shows that the highest misogyist fantasy is to become a Nazi prison guard. The West and westophile world loves a Nazi prison guard, and adjacent fantasies. FinnBol has such fantasy, he only wishes to dress it up in a Soviet aesthetic. His fantasy is bourgeois, and this violent misogyny would have gotten him sentenced if not executed on the spot depending on the circumstances. But, given that this is the Internet, and we are not in a revolutionary situation, nothing will be done. We should shun and shame such behaviors from our spaces. If we want to continue the legacy of Lenin, and produce many principled Marxists, we must cultivate from within ourselves a respect for all humans and a desire for all humans to live a life of dignity. Any indignity suffered by humans cannot be trendy, edgy, seductive or cool.

Even people who understand things such the eventual abolition of war still operate under the assumption that specific crimes such as rape or theft will still continue to exist under advanced socialism or even communism, which is a bad analysis because those things only exist because of class society. Some acts we frown upon now such as killing will continue to happen, since it happened in original communism as well. What is realistic is to expect social organization to return to what it was under original communism - the high egalitarianism, gender and sexual diversity and liberation, and improved health both mentally and physically.
