You said in this talk that Trump cannot be a bonapartist because of the state of class relations. I think now the game has changed. With Palestine straining the relationship between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat with genocide, and with the increase in workers movements, I think the democrat faction of the bourgeoisie could give power to Trump to do whatever needs to be done to restore order, with tacit support from democrats.

Great lead-of comrade!

In what way was purging the socialist revolutionaries "proletarian" bonapartism?

The "proletarian" naming in this context is meant to highlight how the regime defended a collectivized and planned economy as opposed to private property and a free market. A very distinct feature. Also noteworthy is that Bourgeois Bonapartism do not refrain from beating down on capitalists at times even if it is ultimately their interests they represent and defend. Why? Because Bonapartism seeks to defend the regime itself first and foremost. Meaning class associations is no guarantee from harm. But in a more literal sense, yes, there is nothing "proletarian" about purging fellow socialists and communists. Nor should Stalin and his Bonapartist regime be seen as an example of proletarian or communist values put into practice.

Did not include the UK political establishment. Why?

Because "bonapartist" isn't simply a curse word against the establishment, it has a more precise, marxist and useful definition as explained in this video.

@@navegandomivandestadt34 The bourgeoisie in the UK still maintains a facade of democracy to hide its rule. If you think it is an unfair and rotten regime that only protects the interests of the exploitor class, well that's just how bourgeois democracy is in general. Do you agree that in China, Russia, etc, for various historical reasons the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie takes a different form than in the UK?

Because the UK is not under a Bonapartist dictatorship, while Russia and China are. In the UK there is a bourgeois democracy. The members of the ruling class are politically represented in this democracy, while there is no bourgeois democracy under a Bonapartist regime.

​@@navegandomivandestadt34 The IMT has always taken a firm stand against the western imperialists. Being against the home capitalist does not mean slandering them with whatever terms we can think of. If we want to make a revolution we have to be able to be clear on theory and our terminology, and what different words mean, instead of simply using words like 'bonapartist' as a curse-word.

Very bad analysis sorry

I love how this western chauvinist ends his talk by defending Johnson and Trump and then says the working is not ready for Socialist revolution in the UK or America.
