luxon quoted Communism for Kids by Bini Adamczak
The current state of the world forces us to construct a form of desire capable of jamming images of a better world into every fracture of daily life, from subway rides to service jobs to global poverty. In every moment of social suffering, this desire demands a better way of life. At the same time, by making use of our broadest historical knowledge and deepest theoretical criticism, we have to constantly ask ourselves how such desires might lead to impasses that could be avoided. Perhaps some kind of prophetic prosthesis is required to transform the desire for communism into a communist desire. Still, this desire only deserves to be called “communist” if it can prove, again and again, in every situation of domination and against every compromise, that even more can be desired.
I think this is made more precise with Jodi Dean's understanding of communist desire as the collective desire for collectivity. I think Adamczak takes a less specific view, but would presumably agree that solving an issue of disliking one's neighbours through retreat into the suburbs is not a communist way of solving it. I find this defense of utopianism helpful though.
