Description: If colonialism and capitalism were the earthquake that reshaped our world, and all the horrors and fascism we still face are the aftershocks, then what's the actual solution? Join Triploi as we break down, in the simplest terms, the principles of socialism; from dialectical materialism and the dictatorship of the proletariat, to seizing the means of production, environmental sustainability, decolonisation, and the ultimate goal of a classless, stateless communist society.  Whether you're new to socialism or deepening your understanding, this episode provides a comprehensive guide for building a world after the fall of capitalism. --- Listen on PODBEAN 👉 The Triploi Podcast Listen on APPLE PODCASTS 👉The Triploi Podcast Listen on SPOTIFY 👉 The Triploi Podcast --- References and reading list: Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels - The Communist Manifesto (1848) Vladimir Lenin - What Is to Be Done?
