User:Violent Proletarian

Hey 'Erbody!

It's Violent Prole. I'm a slacker doing my slacking in Ocean County, New Jersey at the moment. I was born and raised here (I am now 22 years old) but I have made a point to do a lot of traveling. The most important trip of my trips so far has been the one to Chiapas, Mexico to volunteer to help the Juntas (Councils, or Committees) of the EZLN, or Zapatista Army of National Liberation. I wasn't actually accepted into the Zapatistas, but for about a year I was exposed to backbreaking labor, constant illness and struggle in the poorest part of Mexico, but it was all worth it as I believe I have given all I can to a great revolutionary cause. I went at the age of 18, it was the first major thing I did when I got out of High School. Now I am simply working and being locally active. I am a member of NEFAC the Northeastern Federation of Anarchist-Communists. If you haven't noticed yet from the whole NEFAC and EZLN thing, I am a very Left-Wing person politically and I have devoted myself to activism in the name of the Left, particularly the Revolutionary Left, which I will explain right now...

Revolutionary Leftism and What My Particular Stance Is

Revolutionary Leftism is a group of political ideologies that will forward social progression and change and are known to be sympathetic to the interests of the working class, or proletariat. Most Revolutionary Leftist schools of thought advocate freeing society at large from all forms of social hierarchy and social class, replacing these aspects of society with some form of collectivism and class equality, achieved through revolution or class warfare. Why break social status quo or smash coercive hierarchy? Because class struggle is unhealthy for all people, bourgeois or proletariat. It is a war that either leads to society's liberation or the destruction of the contending members of the hierarchy. Personally, I adhere to the theory of Anarchist Communism and share sympathies with regular Communism and orthodox forms of Marxism, particularly "Luxemburgism", Left Communism, and Council Communism. Basically, I believe in the abolition of the State in favor of voluntary cooperation of free individuals based on mutual aid, and the abolition of Capitalism to be replaced with a communist gift economy, which is a radical egalitarian socialism. Anarchist Communism is usually recognized as a form of Libertarian Socialism, Communism, and Social Anarchism, and is also sometimes recognized as synonymous with Libertarian Communism, though I believe it to be synonymous with Left Communism. I could further explain all you like, just drop a line on my talk page.

Religion

I am Agnostic but Atheist-leaning, meaning I believe the existence or nonexistence of a God cannot be proven, but I think there most likely isn't.

I also follow Situationist and Secular Humanist philosophies.
