Pre–Apocalyptic and Post–Apocalyptic Ages of the Planet Earth

Back in the pre–apocalyptic age of the planet Earth, the beloved revolutionary Marxist martyr and secular Jewish heroine Rosa Luxemburg (German), Róża Luksemburg (Polish), Róży Luksemburg (Polish), Rōzạh bạṯ ʾĔliyyāhū (Hebrew, רוֹזַה בַּת אֱלִיָּהוּ), Rʾọsʾạ bạṯ ʾĔliyyāhū (Yiddish, ראָסאַ בּ‬ֶן אֱלִיָּהוּ), Rūzaẗ ʾib°naẗ ⫰Iy°liyā (Arabic, رُوزَة اِبْنَة إِيْلِيَا), Rūzah duẖ°tar–i ʾIl°ýās (Persian, رُوزَه دُخْتَرِ اِلْیَاس), Roza duxtar–i Iljos (Tajik, Роза духтари Илёс), or Red Rosa 🌹 (German, rote Rosa; or Polish, rudy Rosa) was the daughter of Eliasz (Polish) and Liny (Polish). At only 48–years old, Rosa became a secular martyr. She was assassinated by a rifle in Berlin, Germany, on January 15ᵗʰ, 1919 PR (Pre–Apocalypse). Eight years nine months later, my father was born on September 24ᵗʰ, 1919 PR.

Images of the Direct Aftermath of Earth’s Nuclear Apocalypse

Immediately after Earth’s nuclear holocaust, the majority of the developed world, sentient creatures and physical structures alike, evaporated or incinerated in an instant. The Americas, Eurasia, and large swaths of Africa were thoroughly demolished. Japan, Oceania, and the Caribbean were submerged by tsunamis or destroyed in the blight of nuclear fallout. A catastrophic nuclear winter persisted for centuries. Numerous small pockets of people, residing in the more farflung regions of the world, somehow managed to miraculously survive deep inside caverns and tunnels. Sadly, given the absence of available resources, the very old, the very young, and the physically and intellectually disabled were among the first to perish. The heroic efforts undertaken to save their lives were generally unsuccessful. We damn humans caused this devastation in the first place.

Over a period persisting for hundreds upon hundreds of years, many communities discovered one another. Even those groups which descended from locations speaking the same languages often had difficulties communicating. The separation had simply continued too long. However, given human ingenuity, that obstacle was eventually overcome. Records and artifacts of the pre–apocalyptic period were slowly but surely found. Some were largely destroyed beyond recognition, but, gratefully, a few were still reasonably intact. They were taken as rough guidelines, as the process of building a new civilization slowly began. This time, however, capitalism and imperialism, the twin causes of the apocalypse, was repudiated in favor of Rosa’s democratic libertarian communism. A new age, the initiation of a protracted and tangled journey, had, at long last, commenced.

Thousands of years then transpired post–apocalypse (PO), and first contact with extraterrestrials was ultimately made. Eventually, The United Federation of Libertarian Communist Planets (UFLCP) was founded. We are currently, as this essay is being written, still in the age prior to the dawn of the apocalypse. Preparations for the end of days can, possibly, be made. Therefore, in Red Rosa’s storied tradition, UFLCP struggles for a libertarian communist pentad: Marxism–Luxemburgism, the Autonomist Antifa movement, the heterodox third–camp neo–Trotskyist socialism from below (subsequently adopted by proponents of other tendencies), Bhaskarian critical realism, and, finally, intersectionality:
