No issue, here is a good intro to Marxism if you want it www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/…/index.htm
- Comment on Political discourse 2 days ago:
Firstly this concept only applies to means of production, as in the stuff that is used to produce stuff which could be sold. So e. g. a sewing machine.
Without getting into the weeds:
a. Personal: You own and operate the sewing machine, you pay for the resources consumed and own the item produced. (Good)
b. Private: You own the sewing machine but someone else operates it. You pay the resources consumed, the laborer a previously agreed upon amount and own the item they produced. (bad)
c. Public: the public owns the sewing machine and pays for the resources consumed. The laborer is paid the value of their work. That is, the value of the item produced minus the value of the resources consumed. (Very good)
How “the public” and “the value” are determined is the source of leftist infighting (anarchists vs marxist-leninist). But since both agree that private ownership needs to be abolished the call is for leftist unity to stand together against the people that currently own the means of production privately (the bourgeoisie) and exploit those that have to sell their laborforce in order to survive (the proletariat).

Right: in favor of privately owned means of production.
Left: in favor of publicly owned means of production. - Comment on User "threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works" is banning users for downvoting his posts. 6 days ago:
For what its worth before hexbear disabled downvotes they looked at who had been systematically downvoting trans peoples posts and a couple transphobes got purged.
Also any drama is around downvoting, no cries about systematic upvoting. Seems like any drama can be avoided if downvoting is just disabled.

If we eliminate animal ag we will have more than enough space for lower density production, here Seppoland as an (albeit extreme) example:
And since we won’t be eliminating animal ag under capitalism the profit motive is gonna be moot point anyway.

I mean I dont have that kind of money and if I did it would go to Palestine but Italy seems weirdly expensive when you have romania right there.
- Comment on Half Life Meet Up Inspired by Fallout Meet Up 1 week ago:
Italy?? Half life was inspired by eastern european aesthetics, the Ukraine more specifically. There’s a colonel Odessa for crying out loud.

- Comment on Where has the tax money "saved" in uk austerity gone? 5 weeks ago:
Military contractors mostly. “More aid to Ukraine” is usually code for “we’re giving money to the US MIC”. Also the money isn’t “saved” in that it now exists somewhere and therefore has to have gone someplace to exist there, the government simply doesn’t borrow as much for those services anymore. Probably borrows a lot more for other stuff though so in the end it doesn’t even balance out.

no??? If thats the case the groups are too big!! I have a child in daycare and I’d be horrified if there was such a bustle that the adults need to log every action they take because otherwise a kid might not get his diapers changed!!

You’re extremist that are driving politics to the fringes based on in/out group think.
Can you elaborate on this, what in/out group think? Those that commit war crimes and those that dont?
You’re highly exploitable and manipulated by people in power
Which people in power recommend reading Marx, Lenin, Fanon, Feinberg or any of those people??
