ITT post information about the history and anthropology of the New World. A lot of new anthropological work has been done in this field in recent decades that has not yet entered public consciousness.

It raises questions about how we'd be able to tell if a species had been domesticated and later feralized, or whether we would think to look for that. If you look at the wild types of many cultivars, there is not much to suggest they would be serviceable once domesticated.

in more infuriating news
mexican president claudia sheinbaum and inah announce the discovery of a classical zapotec tomb designated as tomb 10 in huitzo, oaxaca
https://www.elfinanciero.com.mx/nacional/2026/01/23/asi-es-la-tumba-10-de-huitzo-el-descubrimiento-zapoteco-mas-relevante-de-la-ultima-decada-en-mexico/
the tomb is quite grand and imposing and features carved lintels, door jambs, a modeled stucco mask of an owl and murals, however the tomb was only located after locals complained about looting.
some weeks before this, dozens of objects from a postclassical mixtec tomb were unofficially excavated and taken out by a local community under the guidance of an influence named sr blue who documented the whole thing live on his facebook page:
https://oaxaca.eluniversal.com.mx/municipios/hallan-piezas-arqueologicas-en-san-pedro-jaltepetongo-oaxaca-inah-hace-llamado-al-no-saqueo/
which then led me to becoming aware of this individual with almost 1 million followers:
https://www.facebook.com/srbluemx/
whose gimmick consists in publicizing and showing off unexplored or unattended archeological sites around oaxaca allegedly to "bring attention to inah's negligence" of less famous archeological sites while writing self-righteous posts about how he's just a simple businessman who "devours" books in his free time who thinks people don't need no evil government to tell them how to take care of archeological sites or how to excavate them because folk wisdom will lead the way or whatever bullshit.

I'm getting an associates at a community college since it's cheaper to do general education courses here than at a university. I want to major in a math subject for my bachelors but am pretty bad at math.

seems I'm a few weeks late as per usual with /leftypol/'s current activity, but as an actual PhD(c) applied math I'm compelled to post anyway. also the two serious recs here are hilariously bad or unfit

I would brush up on basic knowledge of algebra and trigonometry/geometry, basically HS math or what you might see as "pre-calculus" or "pre-algebra" in college syllabi. Then if you're majoring in a math-heavy subject you'll want to learn calculus, linear algebra, maybe discrete math, maybe probability and statistics.

Regarding sources I'll recommend Paul's Online Math Notes and Prof. Leonard's lectures:
https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu
https://www.youtube.com/@ProfessorLeonard/courses
Another decent resource for very basic stuff is Khan Academy if you like their format. Also check out the OSSU repo, which is mostly a list of links to relevant online courses: https://github.com/ossu/math

What motivates you about math? Do you specifically want to major in math (or applied math) or do you mean another STEM major, perhaps CS or some kind of engineering?

The 19th century Victorian English term for a military operative specializing in scenarios logic was a "necromancer"; capable of taking a treaty, military written or recorded work, or biography or autobiography, and placing it into an intelligence tactic; either interpersonally, or in a field foot play through a handler.

A woman, if British intelligence, is unable to separate the child, from the womb.

Not normally a problem, a "dean", if outside of country under FBI code, a "don"; however, if French lingusitics applied, then the same role as the mother in a male term of English linguistics; a terminology's language, outside of proper term of singular Yiddish. Instead relying on compound words, modified terms of nomenclature with flaws assumed per development and hence courts outside patent (Hebrew manuals, recognition without "God"; the monastic trade on corporate or collegiate life of family).

I convinced a quite a big amount of Muslim friends and even Elder Muslim folks in my community that Capitalism is Haram with one simple argument: Usury is a sin under the the rule of "Riba" being Haram, literally meaning "infinite" or "excess" in Arabic, due to financial exploitation and taking advantage of the person.

Simple

>Infinite growth is a sin requires financial exploitation, and making money off of being idle

>Capitalism's main ethos is infinite profit extraction
>They connect the dots

This opens them up to other arguments like "Infinite growth is impossible on a planet with finite resources" and other things like excess, indulgence and things Capitalists encourage like gambling being a sin (Prediction markets are awful)

I then explain it's like pork, you can eat pork or drink alcohol if you need to if there is nothing else to eat or you need to numb pain under the Islamic law of Rukhsah (Exemptions out of health or other necessities) and we are forced to participate in it order to survive

This easily convinces a lot of Muslims, even ones I meet in the global south who are otherwise very conservative and even if I can't make them fully woke or whatever it's good to have people wake up to some injustice at least. Class interests come first

The main thing I'm asking is if anyone knows any similar works on Socialism from an Islamic perspective using this same logic or at least pre-modern Islamic works that meet the base principles of socialism and wants to discuss this further

the key is to not simply be against usury, but also against profit, rent, and wages. Communism seeks to abolish the wages system. profit, interest, rent, and wages are all part of the system of exploitation.

>>25823
Education in general

>>25821
Western style higher education, especially STEM fields, embody the epistemology and ideology of secularism and capitalism. You'll notice that most chuds and neo stalinists are people from STEM backgrounds i.e. people who believe we can rationally predict and plan all human affairs with statistics, the scientific method etc.

Is all radfem literature like this?

This shit is some of the most ludicrous, hyperbolic grievance mongering I have ever read. There's interesting shit floating around in here, but it is drifting in a sea of "every man is a wife-beating rapist who caused all the world's problems." Even though the book is directly comparing Zionism and feminism and seems to advocate for a lady Israel, it's mostly just couched in whining about men. Dworkin doesn't even have the fucking stones to be a strong Zionist. She's one of these wishy-washy Zionists who thinks that Zionists and Palestinians can co-exist, and maybe one day Israeli and Palestinian women can come together and unite against their REAL enemy: men! (lol) (lmao)

>Reducing Dworkin to "hyperbolic grievance mongering" however is nothing more than an undiluted expression of utter misogyny
The only way you could even begin to believe anything Dworkin wrote is if you believe that women are innocent, hapless, childlike creatures who are entirely incapable of controlling any aspect of their own lives by their own power and whose natural predisposition is to completely submit and grovel before men if they show even the slightest sign of dominance and are not entirely holding themselves back.

I know Dworkinites will deny up and down that she said that all heterosexual sex is rape, but that is simply the natural conclusion of her beliefs. If you define sex partially coerced through massive power imbalance, and also see men strong, dominant and violent while women are feeble, meek, cringing and more or less in a state of perpetual childhood, then you could only conclude that these two groups is a form of rape in the same way that an adult having sex with a child is always a form of rape.

Not what was said, nor an argument. Modern ideology is liberal garbage.

>>25818
>I read Dworkin's account of her relationship with Israel as a thinly veiled analogy to her growing disillusionment with the women's liberation movement.
The very term "women's liberation movement" in this time-period and in a Western context (that she is almost exclusively referring to) is so retarded as to be fucking comedic, if not for the fact that there are stupid entitled burger-women and men that actually subscribe to this ideological bullshit.
>"women's Israel"
<Shilling for nationalist-ethno-state but for a specific sex

>she gives a literary expression to the mass suffering of women as a class

Women are not a separate class, but an identity. Take off that Soviet flag, you bring shame to Marxism-Leninism.
>the barely repressed need for their collective vengeance.
What need? Do you even know what 'need' means? Vengeance on whom?
>nothing more than an undiluted expression of utter misogyny
No, it is dismissing pseudo-intellectual projection of a hateful spinster and not giving the long-winded rubbish more time than it deserves. Calling a cunt out for being a cunt is not misogyny you liberal.

The problem with Dworkin isn't that she's wrong but that's she's trivial. Marriage and prostitution are both paid rape. Who cares?

>>25843
Having read some Dworkin, I don't know if she ever directly said that because it seems like she never directly says anything ever. All Dworkin does is complain about men, and all positions she is said to hold seems to be more inferred from the exact way that she is complaining about men in any given work rather than directly stated.

>this land was promised to women 3000 years ago, we must eradicate all the men here
