What are the three different meanings there?...

I know there's: Interpreting symbolism to understand the meaning (to read), and there's the past tense of having done that (having read) - but what's the third meaning of read?

Idiocracy with fascist characteristics.

When people's businesses start being revolked, sold off by the government, or smashed up, you can be pretty sure there's going to be a more systemic genocide.

So watch out for that happening.

...and that's been the goal for a long time, in a lot of the western world. All privatization is against the common good of the people within any society.

CEOs will be able to crowd source a replacement. Their financial position allows them the upper hand in a highly corrupt pay-to-play political system.

Society will thus go in the direction they choose, which will be to always have people like Trump around. People who are willing to use their reputation and efforts to steal from the poor and give to the wealthy.

Killing Trump is not just a good idea, but a necessary social control... and there still needs to be actions beyond that too.

The bill to make things more difficult.

1. I disagree with your interpretation of Marx. Gold rush era Australia is not an example of a stage where workers owned the means of production, Gold is a raw material not a value-added product. Under Marx it's "value-adding", labour, that gets exploited by the Capitalist class. That was his main usage of working class.

2. "Working class" has a culturally colloquial meaning of "anyone who works". Over the years the colloquial meaning has expanded to include areas of cities which are poor or culturally poor. This would include all sorts of people Marx (and many other class systems) wouldn't define as working class.

3. ahh so this community isn't strictly about the working class calendar, got ya.

None of this matters as I've already unsubscribed. Thanks for your work modding, and good luck with your mix of calendar dates of what you've decided qualifies as important dates about, "working people" doing things including occasionally historical massacres.

Marx defined Working Class as those employed by the Capitalist class (the value of their labor being expropriated as "profit"). I take it (seeing as this example is about individuals who are mining gold for themselves) that you're using a more general definition of "anyone who works".

In which case this place is really just about jobs? So this community is just for investigating anything that happens when someone's at work? Does that include unpaid labor (eg. unsuccessful goldminers), and modern things that happen in the work place?

Wait, how is worker on worker race hate part of the Working Class Calendar? This doesn't seem like a celebration of solidarity.

"This too shall cause irreparable damage".

Or it's not, and that's the problem. The organised rightwing forces of state repression can easily push around a left that's been trained and groomed to function as entirely beholden to corporate sponsors and big money donors.

...to the point it's now visible and blatant that the establishment left cannot stand and legitimately claim even the possibility they are the solution.

Because the solution is something more revolutionary that will cause bloodshed and more regular interruptions to people's daily lives.

So of course, keep your head down, hope none of this effects you. Ignore that it already has. The dems will fix it later, ect....

It's understandable to ignore the civil war even though it's not rational to.

Terrorists (freedom fighters) are made as needed, they're not born ready. Trump's administration will be looking to stay under that threshold.

The problem with this, and so many other problems in America right now - is that they'll only ever be fixed by Democrats swinging the other direction.

The majority of whom will only go as far as they believe their corporate sponsors will allow. Preventing real progress.

This is the mechanism and economic base structure of "democracy" in the west which prevents real progress and real change from happening to the structures and systems we have.

The result? An ever increasing risk of populist fascism, which may become increasingly systemic in its use of deadly force and violent repression (yes, things can go further unless the structure itself is forced in the other direction - in a revolutionary manner).

To clarify: Only leftwing revolution can fix and prevent this happening again. Hence why Biden and establishment "leftists" were unable to prevent the current era - because it requires a revolutionary movement much further left to do these adjustments to democracy, rights, and the state of western politics.
