It depends on what you mean.

Jesus preached an apocalyptic gospel of rectification upon the earth, where the meek and poor shall inherit a kingdom, where the last shall be first. He says that a rich man shall not enter heaven, for worldly riches are opposed to heavenly riches, where reward is given for thankless deeds rather than prideful displays of virtue.

He said that one ought to not simply love their neighbour, but also to love their enemy; to give one's cloak to the thief, and to turn the other cheek. Upon unrighteousness, it is seen that sinners ought to be forgiven and not punished, for they "know not what they do". The criminal should not be executed, for only he that has not sinned has right to cast the first stone.

On money, it is seen that the love of mammon is the root of all evil, and that the rich should sell all their possessions and give the proceeds to the poor. On family, Christ claims that one must love God more than his earthly father, elsewise he will be left behind. Tradition is expelled by the New Covenant, as the old vine dies off and a new one is attached. And finally, one should not fear death, for in Christ is the Resurrection.

The sublime cannot be wholly politicised, only aestheticised.

Has anybody go through Anark's or Daniel Baryon's work? I'm thinking about reading A Modern Anarchism in a book club and I was wondering if anyone has any critiques that I should be aware of. Is it a good starter text?

>Why do so many people want to kill people like me?
You might be surprised by this, but the goal of Communism is to abolish class society, through any means necessary, not simply kill the bourgeoisie. If it were possible to abolish classes without violence, the Communists would take that option, but because the bourgeoisie defend their class interests through murder, it becomes self defense for the proletariat to wage class war against the bourgeoisie.

Stalin:
>Marx in his day (the seventies of the nineteenth century) made an exception in the case of Britain, and probably also of America, where militarism and bureaucracy were little developed at that time, and where at that time there was a possibility of achieving the political rule of the proletariat by other means, “peaceful” means. I said that this exception, or reservation, made by Marx in the case of Britain and America was correct at the time, but, in Lenin’s opinion, has become incorrect and superfluous in the present conditions of developed imperialism, when militarism and bureaucracy are flourishing in Britain and America in the same way as in other countries.

>Permit me, comrades, to turn to Marx. Here is what he wrote in his letter to Kugelmann in April 1871:

Marx quoted by Stalin:

>“. . . If you look at the last chapter of my Eighteenth Brumaire, you will find that I say that the next attempt of the French revolution will be no longer, as before, to transfer the bureaucratic-military machine from one hand to another, but to smash it . . . , and this is the preliminary condition for every real people’s revolution on the continent.* And this is what our heroic party comrades in Paris are attempting.”

The promise of capitalism as opportunity for everyone does not materialize. Normal people live and die having to submit to the orders of modern day aristocrats or their representatives. Education is no longer a guaranteed ticket into the middle class. Saving money in the hopes of becoming your own boss grows less realistic as barriers of entry to business rise while wages stagnate for decades despite productivity growth.
In short, mass desperation and palpable inequality which (social) democracy failed to keep in check.
Now consider that this is actually many people's life, when you're actually hungry or at risk you will have a very strong emotional response that makes you easy to radicalize. We're not quite "there" yet and most people are still reasonable but this will get worse with conditions.

>vaguepost king quotes nobody and responds to no args

>>2793575

meaning != purpose. meaning is the "why", the rationale and intellectual significance of the idea, purpose is the "what", the actionable goals of the idea.

the idea of intellectual property has always had plenty of purposes, but in my opinion it never really had any meaning, any rational basis - the idea that information can be a form of privately owned property has always been bullshit, a nonsensical and unrealistic idea.

the only reason we were able to treat information as property is because of technological limitations that made information difficult to encode/copy/modify/transmit/etc., but as i described, these technological limitations do not last. intellectual property makes unrealistic demands of reality and reality is refusing to accommodate them. that is why it is bullshit.

>>2793606
> but in my opinion it never really had any meaning, any rational basis
for the ruling class, protecting their own class position is a perfectly rational basis, even if the tools they used to do that appear irrational to everyone but themselves

>>2793692

well if we are going to preserve our sanity and live in rational objective reality we have to refrain from internalizing the irrationality and solipsism of the ruling class, even doing it inadvertantly through careless use of language

the right has always been a sham
from around 1649-1789, it was primarily concerned with the interests of the aristocracy and arbitrarily conserving power. it had no intellectual theory of its own, while the left completely dominated all relevant areas of culture and politics. after 1789, the right was complacent with regulating the aristocracy politically, but also regulating trade to benefit them economically, such as with the corn laws of england, 1815-46 (enacted under the tories) which artificially rose prices so that british landlords could derive greater profits from their sale. Marx also speaks on how the Acts of Union (1801) with Ireland was a conspiracy to create a landed aristocracy in ireland and mass immigration into England (causing immense competition amongst labourers, as Engels notes in 1848 and Marx speaks on in 1869). This Act was also issued by the Tories. The right then in this era, were not at all loyal to the common man, and never have been. After 1900, you get the Labour Party, the first socialist party in Britain, and so the Tories (now conservatives) make these their main enemy. In 1926, there was a general strike in protest of mining companies attempting to lower wages; the resolve of the Conservative government was simply to make general strikes illegal. This led to the election of Ramsay Macdonald, the first labour PM, from 1929-35. After WW2 we get the celebrated welfare state due to the work of Clement Attlee (who also opposed the EEC, or EU, while conservatives promoted inclusion and eventually put the UK in the EU). During the 60s and 70s we get the "new right" in continental europe and the anglosphere. In the anglosphere it is about free market economics, with reactionary cultural values (now, as it will be clear, liberal values come from liberal economics, so it is already a paradox). At the same time, "free market" just means selling public assets off to the highest bidder and exporting national industry to foreigners, creating mass unemployment and dependence on the state (the descent of places in the US like Detroit are entirely synonymous with the exportation of industry, creating welfare slaves who fall into crime - this evidently stains not only racial underclasses but also deindustrialised regions in general). This period (often termed "neoliberalism") passes from around 1979-1989 with Reagan and ThatPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I support Elon Musk getting shot in an alleyway like that bank cuck Luigi shot
Even though frankly that's too good for him. He needs Epstein levels of shit done to his stupid ass, a broken bone for every banned Twitter account when he to this day says he's all about free speech. I'm not even mad about the twitter accounts themselves, but the lack of efficiency where when he bought twitter, he could have for a fraction of it sued tech companies and completely rewritten the law code and held websites more liable in practice. Like this shit hole has mods, and with all the CP posts on Siberia, guess whose liable? But isn't it funny how rebellious youths and feds can post child porn on some backwoods image board with like 200 people, but can't on Twitter or reddit.

>Wagner are extremly incompetent and failing to beat the Jihadis, the Jihadis were helped by Ukraine for a bit, but most of their support is local, they're winning because Mali and Wagner is corrupt.
wagner (actually its called africa corps now) is mostly light infantry, the problem isnt that they're incompetent or corrupt (although they likely are, given they're mercenaries fucks), the problem is they dont have much heavy equipment or air support and arent many (and the most skilled guys prolly were kept in russia for the war). They're a small support force mostly there to help with shit like training or radio jamming
And I suspect france is helping the jihadist too. Just after france was kicked out mali had managed to retake kidal, a feat french military never helped with, and now they're becoming stronger and striking back and there were report of ukrainians helping them out, so its safe to assume the west empire is backing them as retaliation for the sahel states giving them the boot and nationalizing shit.

Like what? Stop vagueposting

Almost every single piece of discourse involving "wokeness" is completely detached from material reality. There's almost never substantive examples in these discussions, or even policies. Of all the political hot topics it's easily the most vibes-based and the most beholden to propaganda. So many words dedicated to nothing really. I have to wonder if it's because identity itself is vibes-based so when people are engaged in these discussions it's inherently about their internal identity rather than what's going on in the real world. It's an entire field of projection basically.
It doesn't help that this site's userbase in particular was raised on 2010s/20s 4chan astroturfing, and many to this day refuse to acknowledge that they were brainwashed.
