[[File: | [[File:Image0.webp|thumb|Haz's world-historical tweet. They were not in fact ready to know. ]] | ||
"'''We already live in socialism'''" is a phrase used by [[Infrared]] to signify that the process of achieving [[socialism]] has already begun. The phrase was first introduced in Haz's earliest YouTube streams, and later notably during a Twitch stream discussing the controversial tweet by [[Haz Al-Din|Haz]] on the matter. <blockquote>"When we pass from joint-stock companies to trusts which assume control over, and monopolize, whole industries, it is not only private production that ceases, but also planlessness." | |||
— Friedrich Engels (''Neue Zeit'', Vol. XX, 1, 1901-02, p.8) </blockquote> | |||

For example, in regard to the capitalist system, Marx says that value-form is the most ''abstract'' (highest in form) and most universal (dominant) taken by the product.<ref>[https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1867-c1/ch01.htm Karl Marx, Capital, Volume 1]</ref> In the instantiations of socialism it would obviously not be the case, as the dictatorship of the proletariat has the strongest, most abstract and universal command over production. Dialectics really is the important part here; abolition is not what determines the change, it is the ''telos;'' i.e, A and not-A are contained within each other, one taking dominance over the other in each economic system because of who controls the forces of production. | For example, in regard to the capitalist system, Marx says that value-form is the most ''abstract'' (highest in form) and most universal (dominant) taken by the product.<ref>[https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1867-c1/ch01.htm Karl Marx, Capital, Volume 1]</ref> In the instantiations of socialism it would obviously not be the case, as the dictatorship of the proletariat has the strongest, most abstract and universal command over production.
