Actually I think you have it backwards

The simplest theory of everything bad in society is "bad people made it happen on purpose". You just need to know that people have power and agency. It's much more complex to explain the relationship between commodities, gold, labor, capital, the proletariat, the bourgeoisie, markets, the state, and so on and how this is a system which produces certain results regardless of any subjective variance and agency in the individual participants.

So while I also agree with validating conspiracies as real and not reducing everything to market incentives and selection forces, if you veer too far towards individual agency you get an idealist and liberal understanding of how society works. It leads to "just get rid of the bad apples" and "capitalism is bad because greed", and these necessitate liberal solutions that ultimately maintain capitalism. This is why conspiracy theories are so much more popular among the masses. The answers are mentally easy and don't challenge the system, only scandalize it.

If we kill all the bad people, they no longer exist, they can no longer do bad things. It's that shrimple.

And, frankly, bad people are like animals. They only understand the kind of language, of I am going to physically inflict pain on you in certain amounts for a certain time. This is the only thing that deters them.

Jesus preached socialism and it was first practiced as described in the book of Acts where "everyone had everything in common". Deacons (servants) were responsible for the distribution of goods. This was the inspiration for what came later. Now the nascent church was scattered when persecution by the Jews intensified after Steven and James were martyred but the missions still sent supplies to whoever was in need. This broke down gradually over time because of the influence of politics on the religion. The co-opting of religion to serve politics has given us the madness were experiencing today. The separation of church and state is necessary to protect the integrity of both, so Christian socialism is just as bad an idea as Christian nationalism. The ASP exists in a few states to try to influence elections by promoting the socialism found in church teaching but the aim isn't a utopian end but because they believe that "God made us all equal in his image and that no man should be born into, and live in, poverty".

Christian Socialism was debunked by Marx and Engels 178 years ago. Nothing more needs to be said.

Going to all the effort of implanting a left-centrist would be better off spent building that organizational capacity outside of bourgeois state systems, no? Now, I'm not against participation in them, but isn't that being your end goal rather self-defeating?

The ship's sinking and the crew on the bridge have jammed the steering. Why not work to stop the engines as you plead with them to take the bar off the wheel? Why not get the most vulnerable to the life rafts while the strongest arm themselves incase the bridge needs to be stormed? To deny revolutionary work is to kneecap yourself. The things you do to get a guy elected can also serve as a basis for revolutionary action if you play your cards right.

>>2726755
>I recognize that class struggle is reality, but you will never see a revolution in your lifetime because the organizational capacity of the working class in terms of actually halting production is near zero.
Thus, you help build it. If you can build it enough to get a guy in office, why stop there? The reformist does not encompass revolution but a revolutionary encompasses reform. Take the idea of "class struggle" to it's logical conclusion, either in the revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes.


Having said that, I highly suspect that this is bait.

Now that's just a straight up brain-dead argument. How many people in your country speak Spanish? More likely than not <1-2% of population, so throw out all the signs, shirts and banners about Cuba and LatAm and stop chanting "Viva La Revolución, Viva Che!"? How many Arabic speakers are there? None, so stop caring about Palestine and wrapping yourself in a keffiye. If you're not in an Anglophone country, stop using English at all. Stop caring about events from other countries all together actually.

Now inertial mass is the measure of the resistance of a body to a force acting on it. If I were to push a cart, the speed with which it will move and the increase of speed (acceleration) would depend on how massive it is. The more massive the cart, the less will be the acceleration when I push it. This mass, which measures the inertness or laziness of an object, is called its inertial mass.

The effects of inertial mass can be seen in several common place phenomena. If the train in which we are travelling suddenly stops, we are thrown forward. This is an example of an inertial force acting on us. While travelling in a bus, when the bus makes a sharp turn, we are thrown sideways. This is also an example of an inertial force acting on us. These inertial forces are seen to arise from the acceleration of our frame of reference. In science, some examples of inertial forces are centrifugal forces and Coriolis forces.

Newton’s theory of gravity says that the gravitational attraction depends on the masses of the objects. Here we are speaking about the attractive power of the masses. This gravitational attractive power of the object is called its gravitational mass.

The weight of a body is the result of the attraction of the earth on it. It expresses the gravitational mass of the body. We can measure gravitational mass by the weight of an object.

In 1890 the scientist R.V.Eotvos performed an ingenious experiment designed to test the ratio of inertial mass to weight. On the basis of this experiment it was concluded that the two masses, inertial mass and gravitational mass, are equal to each other within one part to 108 (that is, one part in one hundred million). Further experiments have improved on this result. So the equality of inertial mass and gravitational mass had been well established.

Einstein realized that the principle of equality of inertial mass and gravitational mass was to be placed at the centre of any theory of gravitation. He says in his autobiographical book The World as I see it: “This law, which may also be formulated as the law of equality of inertial and gravitational mass, was now brought home to me in all its significance. I was in the highest degree amazed at its persistence and guessed that in it must lie the key to the deeper understanding of inertia and gravitation.”

On the basis of this principle of equality of inertial mass and gravitational mass Einstein argued that there was no diffPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

We have seen that the field equations of general relativity do not rule out such diseases as causal pathology. You can have in the GR closed time-like curves. In order to avoid such problems, additional postulates are required. The root of this problem is the treating of space-time like a sheet of paper, or as a manifold. The manifold structure which treats space and time as equal, abstractly, gives rise to problems. It can be proved that the manifold topology is inadequate for avoiding such causal pathologies. Roger Penrose has shown that the Alexandrov topology does not pose such problems.

He has shown mathematically that the space-time described by the Alexandrov topology is free from causal pathologies. He shows that if the manifold topology does not suffer from causal pathologies, then the structure it defines coincides with Alexandrov topology. Conversely, if the manifold topology agrees with the Alexandrov topology then it is strongly causal (that is, there are no causal pathologies).(For details see DRQ)

To sum up this discussion, we can say that from Einstein’s work Minkowski constructed space-time through the process of abstraction, where the differences between space and time were ignored. We had an inverted structure where you could travel into the past, kill your own grandfather and ensure that you were not born, so that the original journey does not begin! Alexandrov, by recognizing the diverse qualities of space and time in concrete reality, reconstructed space- time on a material basis.

With Minskowski space-time was standing on its head. Alexandrov did to Minkowski the service Marx rendered to Hegel when he set his dialectics back on its feet.

According to the general theory of relativity, the final stages of certain types of stars can only be structures called black holes, with some amazing properties, that go against the principles of dialectical materialism. Some such properties are: of matter disappearing into a point, structures having no internal contradictory motion but only inward motion, or of matter entering a so called ‘event horizon’ from which no information is in principle possible to obtain.

Of all the laws of dialectics the central one is concerned with the unity and struggle of opposites and the corresponding category of contradiction. Astronomy provides ample examples of the operation of this law of contradiction in the processes of nature. One example is the constant working Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

This situation calls for the defence of dialectical materialism. In this case, we examine the postulates on the basis of which mathematics inexorably draws the conclusions about space-time around such an object. One postulate, of course, is that the general theory of relativity is absolutely valid even in the situations where matter is assumed to have densities which have never been dealt with observationally, and no occasion has been present where the principle of equality of interial mass and gravitational mass has been tested in such circumstances. Another postulate is the so called energy condition, which is at the basis of all the theorems on black holes. We shall not go into details (Please see DRQ). But let us take the first assumption about the absolute validity of the GR.

The Marxist scientist V.A.Fock had put Einstein’s general relativity to a detailed criticism. In 1959 he wrote a foundational book, The theory of space,time and gravitation. He showed how Einstein was mistaken in assuming the identity of the geometry of space-time with the physical gravitational field. By doing so he had reduced gravitation to a matter of the coordinate system, and technically the result was that in his gravitation theory there was no law of conservation, as in the case of electric and magnetic fields. Thus a gravitational field could be just switched off by taking up new system of coordinates. The identification of inertial fields with gravitational fields was also shown to be faulty.

From the point of view of mathematics, Fock showed that the number of equations in Einstein’s field equations (which is ten) was not enough to actually determine the structure of the geometry and the coordinate system. He also debunked Einstein’s belief that he had proved the equivalence of all frames of reference, including accelerated frames, which had made Einstein call his theory the general theory of relativity.

Drawing upon Newton’s theory of gravitation, where the gravitational field fades away with distance from the attracting body, Fock considered the case of island universes, with the condition that at infinity, the geometry should be flat. Hence there was a natural coordinate system, the harmonic coordinates, which held a cardinal place in the theory. With the four conditions for the harmonic coordinates, now the theory was able to determine the structure of space time associated with the gravitational field. He gave a new structure Post too long.
