You believe in establishing a classless, stateless society where the means of production are collectively owned and wealth is distributed equitably among all citizens.
Marxism-Leninism is a political ideology that emerged as a formalized theory in the early 20th century, combining elements of Marxist socio-economic theory and Leninist political strategy. It was developed by the Bolshevik Party of the Soviet Union and was named after the ideologies of Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin.
Marxism-Leninism is based on the principles of Marxism as interpreted and modified by Lenin. Marx's theories focused on the struggles between classes, arguing that the exploitation of the working class by the bourgeoisie (the capitalist class) would eventually lead…

If there were no private businesses, how do you imagine innovation would take place in technology or services?
@9JQ9XQL1yr1Y
With no restrictions, I believe that the removal of patients would allow more expression
@9JRF296 1yr1Y
If "patients" is supposed to say "patents," then I think it would have the exact opposite effect. Instead of attempting to discover and invent new things, many corporations would simply steal other people's designs. Fewer people would be expressing themselves by being creative, and more would stick to what works.
@9JQ9VND1yr1Y
It more or less really wouldn't unless in times of war or dire necessity
@9JQ9Y6N1yr1Y
It would not happen because there are no businesses to compete with
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
Imagine a day in your life when your contributions are measured by their societal impact rather than monetary value; what would you do differently?
@9KCPHH31yr1Y
Volunteer constantly, work for organizations that better people.
@9KDXL541yr1Y
If the goal is to have a societal impact and better people, volunteering allows for direct help to individuals who need it.
@9KDW8QP1yr1Y
if my contributions were based on my societal impact, I would be more motivated to do more because I can see the ways my actions affect others. As opposed to working for money only and seeing no direct return to the community.
@7GP32QVRepublican 1yr1Y
I would flee the country ASAP to live in a freer society with free enterprise like the USA. In a Marxist-Leninist society, there is no free-market capitalism and no right to private property.
@9KCP69L1yr1Y
I would stop focusing on how to make money and focus on how to impact my community positively.
@9KCPJ6V1yr1Y
I would save us from a war and bring unity rather than conflict.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What does being 'rich' or 'poor' mean to you, and how would these concepts change in a classless society?
@9RN43KK11mos11MO
Rich are those that don't have any need to work as their passive income can sustain their lifestyle. In a classless society, there would be no necessity to work, you would only work if you chose to.
@9KD8NYVIndependent1yr1Y
To be rich is to have monetary wealth that allows for one to live above the average standard. A rich person can easily afford optional and unnecessary luxuries, on top of having their necessities met. Meanwhile, to be poor is to have extremely little monetary wealth, living just below the average standard. A poor person can barely afford their basic necessities if at all.
@9KD82GW1yr1Y
They don’t mean anything to me because people is human all people is human
@9KD8C621yr1Y
Rich have money, and the poor don't. In a classless society, these concepts still would reside, for as long as someone has more money than someone, that person will still hold the leash.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would your aspirations be influenced if your career success did not depend on competitive advantages?
@9LDXTL31yr1Y
I do not care about career success, i do work because I want to be happy and to help my community
@9LFNDV31yr1Y
I care about career success because I want to be paid for the hard work that I do. Others should not benefit from my services unless I am first or my benefits are greater than theirs.
@9LDXQ6W1yr1Y
I would want to help as many people as a could so that everyone is healthy and living well so i can have fun with people
@9LDY6ZM1yr1Y
In the context of Marxism-Leninism, where the ideology emphasizes collective ownership of resources and the abolition of class-based competition, the influence on individual aspirations regarding career success would likely shift away from traditional notions of competitive advantages and toward broader societal goals and communal well-being.
@9LDXYT31yr1Y
I'd probably enjoy my aspirations more because I wouldn't be comparing myself to others as much
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How might the experience of playing team sports at school change if all players were valued equally, regardless of skill?
@9LFRDTJ1yr1Y
There would be no point in professional sports if everyone played the same.
@9LFR9N81yr1Y
The teams would become much worse and no one would be motivated to get better.
@9LFR3JZ1yr1Y
It would be a great feeling because I believe more people are going to feel much more accomplished and feel great that they are acknoledging them.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If personal property didn't exist, how do you think it would affect your sense of privacy and personal space?
@9KZ4PFRRepublican1yr1Y
I think that you would not have any privacy or personal space because there would be no rules against people coming onto your property or invading your space.
@9KZ4BRR1yr1Y
It would greatly affect my sense of ownership and rights
@9KZ4B931yr1Y
greatly, and in a very bad way, we need privacy and private property
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
If you could shape a government that truly represents all citizens, what would be your first action?
@9KD7RGYConstitution1yr1Y
To have everone read and understand our constitution and the amendments as well as bill of rights
@9KHQYS71yr1Y
It's better to educate everyone, because not everyone understands the constitution or its rights it holds and some people may even fear it because they have a wrong viewing on it.
@9KD7QN3Independent1yr1Y
My first action would be to go from state to state and determine key issues that need to be changed.
@9KH7NZD1yr1Y
The political systems of the different states is difficult enough to ensure we need to individualize solutions
@9KD7XK51yr1Y
Make everyone learn algebra. We are a nation of idiots and whiners.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Would the elimination of class systems enhance or diminish our sense of community?
@9HJ4Z4D 2yrs2Y
Yes, class systems do nothing to benefit us only isolate us from eachother. With class systems, the poor cannot participate in society and most of the wealth would be owned by selfish entrepreneurs that exploit the working class.
@9HGMWVBProgressive 2yrs2Y
diminish because people wouldn’t know where they belong in society there has to be some sort of class separation in order for society to carry out as normal
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What would motivate you to work if everyone's needs were equally met regardless of their job?
@9HGMFDB2yrs2Y
Decent pay where I wouldn't have to worry about how I was going to take care of myself.
@9HGM84N2yrs2Y
people would not work. you should get the benefits of the work you put in and not rely on someone else to take care of you.
@9HGMKPG2yrs2Y
The love and passion I have for the job j sent I think this should be the main reason for working we should not be forced to obtain jobs we don't enjoy just because they pay more
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What dreams would you pursue if your basic financial needs were already met by society?
@9KCDM9G1yr1Y
Continue my dream work by being in the field work of welding
@9KCD7D31yr1Y
to improve my standing in a way entirely contrary to the Marxist theory
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Do you think true equality is achievable, and how might it affect ambition and innovation?
@9HJ564W2yrs2Y
True equality is not achievable because everyone has their own standards and opinions.
@9HJ52DB2yrs2Y
I don't think that true equality is achievable, I think that it depends on what a person wants to do with their life andf whether they want to put in the work to further advance in life or not.
@9HJ7RS5Independent2yrs2Y
Marx's communistm is most expressly not about everyone being equal
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
In a society striving for classlessness, what new challenges might we face?
@9HJ44YW2yrs2Y
We might considerably have problems with the struggles between the social classes, including capitalists and workers, because it defines economic relations in a capitalist economy and could potentially lead to a communist revolution.
@9HJ3PXQ2yrs2Y
In a society striving for classlessness, challenges like a lack of growth might arise as without different classes and the idea of being and having much more than others, many might feel unmotivated to improve since everyone is already at the same level.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Without the incentive of higher wages, what other motivations might drive people to work hard and innovate?
@9HYPRTN1yr1Y
the opportunity to own a company as a worker, which somewhat exists already. Workers who work hard have the ability to climb ranks of a company.
@9HYPPGNProgressive1yr1Y
I believe the driving motivator should be the simple pleasure of making our lives better, you work hard and learn the skills to look back and see how much you've improved, I think we've been blinded by the ideology that all you need to make life better is a decent job to give you decent money that we forget how simply accomplishing a difficult task to drive ourselves forward gives us such a deeply satisfying feeling of achievement that no amount of money can compare to.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How would the role of education change if it was pointed towards creating a classless society?
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Is it possible to have a successful society where the state eventually withers away?
@9H3XZCY2yrs2Y
No. The state is how the collective society organizes and manages itself. A stateless society is a total fantasy.
@9H3XY7C2yrs2Y
No, because the State is vital to protecting its people from internal and external threats. If the State dissolves and anarchy occurs, people will just restructure themselves into tribes and restart the whole state building process again, with a whole lot of violence that accompanies that process. Stable states are the best society to live in.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Would you support a revolution if it meant you could possibly lose personal freedoms?
@9H8XC7Z2yrs2Y
If the revolution is going against a system that oppresses a certain class for the betterment of a higher class, then yes, because if the revolution is a success, there's opportunity to gain more freedom than what was there before.
@9H7XWBV2yrs2Y
Capitalism is hell, and no person should be allowed to be a billionaire. Having that much money is morally wrong. While Marxism-Leninism is difficult to properly execute it can and has been done. We the people deserve better than what we have.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
What examples from current events remind you of the fight between the 'working class' and 'capitalists'?
@9HJ4MY82yrs2Y
Taking money from public schools and Investing In private schools.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Could the presence of a guiding party prevent or promote corruption, and why?
@9HJ4KJ72yrs2Y
The presence of a guiding party may or may not prevent crruption
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How might international relations change if all countries adopted a Marxist-Leninist approach?
@9HJ4QVB2yrs2Y
uses historical materialism as the preferred method to explain and understand contemporary world politics. I
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
In a world where your basic needs are guaranteed, what personal goals and pursuits would you prioritize?
@9HVD92W2yrs2Y
I would prioritize working and how much money i make
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
If leadership was truly collective, how do you envision decisions would be made in your school or community?
@9HXN9PQ1yr1Y
Schools would be out of control due to everyone having equal control of the place and no one would agree on who has full responsibility
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Can you imagine a world without social classes; what would it look like to you?
@9HGN69SRepublican2yrs2Y
everybody except the ruling class would be poor. No opportunity
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
How might your relationships with your peers change if there were no class distinctions among you?
@9HYTLPY1yr1Y
It would be harder to gauge things in common and interest based on stereotypes. It would be harder for certain people to help other people out since we would all be the same.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
Are people inherently cooperative enough to maintain a stateless, classless society?
@9H7BV2K2yrs2Y
I do not think so, people who are power hungry will always find a way
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
What concerns might you have about free expression in a society where only one political ideology is promoted?
@9L8CF961yr1Y
I think that since we live in such a fluid world where there is so much in between having one political ideology that is accepted isn't fair and it silence voices.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you define personal success in a society that measures worth by contribution to the collective well-being?
@9KXGNYF1yr1Y
In general, personal success would be gauged on how a person is able to give back to their community. This could be through a job, volunteering, art, or even something as simple as being an upstanding citizen and role model. This would be stressed, as putting focus on bettering the community will benefit all members of the community, whereas our current emphasis of bettering individuals only benefits the individual, often at the expense of others.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would your approach to education change if your future income didn't depend on your degree?
@9KD7T9X1yr1Y
I would be an archeologist or work in the arts/humanities instead of aiming to be a lawyer. I aspire to be a lawyer mostly because our system requires you to make money before having basic needs instead of receiving aide for basic needs so you can make money to improve your life.
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH2yrs2Y
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would public spaces and communities look and function if designed with the goal of promoting social equality?
@9L8F7521yr1Y
Public spaces and communities would look very organized and overall everyone will feel comfortable in the environment and no one would be treated differently.
