A couple of things spring to mind:
- Dismantling of state intelligence and "defense" agencies. This can be tricky because a burgeoning revolutionary state would still need its own intelligence, so this probably would look like pardoning and recruitment of whistleblowers as well as ideological testing and education for people with pre-existing security experience, and reaching out to "black hats" and criminal hackers who don't work on behalf of the state and offering them training/jobs.
- Vocational schools and training for criminals generally. The episode of "Hamilton's Pharmacopia" on Quaaludes in South Africa really opened my mind on this. He shows a man with extreme chemistry talent and knowledge who never finished high school manufacturing quaaludes in his backyard. The man is obviously a savant and says he doesn't like what he's doing and the fumes are killing him, but he needs the money. Imagine if people like him were granted subsidized vocational and professional training! Absolute geniuses currently labor under horrible conditions doing things they hate just to get by. They could do great things if the system incentivized it. China has a burgeoning vocational system in place with a focus on getting women out of the sex trade.
- Dismantling the U.S. schooling system and rebuilding it. Introduction to Marxism becomes standard curriculum. Degrees in Marxist-Leninist theory, history and practice become available. Remove all barriers to secondary and tertiary education.
- Abolish the "felon" class. Anyone who has "served their time" in either a re-education facility or prison and is deemed a non-hazard to others is afforded the same rights as others post-sentence. DPRK has no "felon" class, time served and you are considered a citizen again. Allow current prisoners the right to engage in politics via voting, etc. Abolish prison-slave labor, replace it with payment congruent to the typical pay they would get for their labor on the outside, with exceptions to working at all being taken more seriously in cases of inability. Subsidize more training in prisons including GED style diplomas as well as college degrees. Establish prisoners' councils where prisoners can voice their concerns over human rights etc.
- Either lower the voting age to 16 or change the minimum working age to 18. All workers are to be afforded the ability to engage in politics. Anything else is slavery. Youth groups for the ruling party should be established and encouraged to maintain youth's passion for the revolution.
- As William Blum said he would do if he were president, apologize to the world. In front of the U.N., announce a focus on equal partnership between all peoples and nations and on fostering the strengthening of the global south's economy and bilateral relationships. Announce the death of U.S. hegemony and imperialism.
- The revolutionary successor state becomes plurinational with full autonomy, up to and including the right to secede, for indigenous nations and respect for treaties. This goes for any potential Black Republic or New Afrikan project as well. In the event of a plurinational state, proportional representation of different minority groups at the federal level is mandatory and necessary.
- Crack down on religious fundamentalism. Utterly destroy the ties that bind church and state. Maintain the legality of individual religious practice and the ability to create a church with state oversight. Imprison Joel Osteen and Pat Buchanan.
Many more obv. Just shit I think about regularly.
