I noticed there is no thread for France related shit. So let this be one. French people deserve a safe space and guarantees for their continued existence on loser imageboards!
J'ai remarqué qu'il n'y a pas de thread dedié pour la France, alors que les salauds américains et anglais en ont des centaines. Français, ne succombez pas à l'impérialisme anglochiotte!

Subjets of Macronpiter, leave a post.

I will openly admit that I don't understand what this whole "treatlerite" discourse is all about. Is the central idea that consumerism is fascism? I don't get it don't all of us in western capitalism countries partake in consumerism? Are you saying I have to run off and live in the woods like a hermit in order not to be fash?

This post has audio if you're too lazy to read it

This was originally going to be a reply ITT >>2439192 but I decided to make it its own post

<it doesn't deserve to be that!

yeah well we have 20 dead /usapol/ threads in the catolog so who cares

If making above subsistence wage makes you "a petty bourgeois treatlerite" because it allows you to "accumulate savings after monthly expenses" which are "reserves that can be potentially converted into capital" then by that same logic any couple who has fewer than 2 children or any single person who has fewer than 1 child is "petty bourgeois" because the subsistence wage is the wage required, according to Marx, not just to keep yourself alive, but also your children, since capitalism requires the labor force to reproduce itself.

If a nation's population fails to reproduce itself Capital has to seek out labor from other nations by outsourcing or using immigrant labor. Something we see in the imperial core. If you're single and aren't bearing the expense of raising at least 1 adopted child, or if you're a couple, and you aren't bearing the expense of raising at least 2 children, then you aren't reproducing the labor force for capital, which means that even with a subsistence wage (which by definition, according to Marx himself, includes the cost of raising children to adulthood), you will have left over savings that can go towards "treats" (luxury commodities that aren't essential for survival like vidya games) or be used as money capital (i.e. invested as self-expanding value in an interest yielding savings account or 401k or some other petty bourgeois asset).

By this logic, many of the most puritanical Marxists on here (like Iron Felix) who rail against "treatlerites" and such are usually single men without children (the usual imageboard demographic) who, even if we believe them, and they are "immiserated wage workers earning a subsistence wage and unable to accumulate savings" they aren't actually reproducing themselves, which is one of the things Marx originally stated about the working class. This is because Marx himself had 7 children, half of whom died before adulthood, and he was writing during a time when contraception and birth control and sex edPost too long.

EU’s “Chat Control” will be forced to scan every message, photo, and file before it is encrypted on WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and other all other apps.
Politicians would be exempt. It is being sold as “child protection” but the EU’s own legal service warns that it violates fundamental rights. Once a backdoor into encryption exists, it is not just governments who can use it. Hackers, criminals, and hostile states can too.

Today (with real encryption): Message is locked on your phone. Not even WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram (secret chat) can read it. Only the recipient can open it.
Under Chat Control: Your message is opened and scanned on your phone before encryption. If the scanning software believes it finds “prohibited” content, even by mistake, it is sent to the authorities.
Austria opposes the plan, but 19 EU countries already support it. If Germany joins them, the law could pass in October.

According to the campaign:
Mass surveillance: Every message, file, and image sent without suspicion would be automatically scanned.
Encryption undermined: End-to-end encryption would be weakened or broken, putting all communication at risk for everyone, not just criminals.
False positives: Innocent content such as jokes or holiday photos could be misidentified and trigger investigations.
Exemptions for politicians: Officials would be excluded under “professional secrecy” while normal citizens lose their privacy.

Personally I thought they already did that. I guess things will just get worse.

When you're high you can literally touch the dialectic. I want to know how much influence altered states have had on philosophy and Marxism in general. A lot of Marxist philosophical concepts make more sense under the influence.

We frequently talk about how eugenics is the ideological backbone of capitalism and how nearly every aspect of capitalism is rooted in eugenics. This happens even in capitalist countries with “universal” healthcare such as Canada, where a hospital recently killed a baby girl by denying her a much-needed liver transplant. Why? Because she had Down Syndrome.

>Krystal Vanderbrugghen gave birth to her daughter, Veya, in December of 2023. She was born with Down syndrome and a congenital heart defect (CHD). Though Veya was able to have a successful heart repair, she then began experiencing complications with her liver.

>In an interview with Live Action News, Vanderbrugghen said Veya is a medically complex child, but her liver has been an ongoing problem, which took nearly a year to diagnose.

>As the hospital attempted treatment with multiple procedures last year, Veya then contracted Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) — which is mild in adults, but can be life-threatening for infants, the elderly, or people with compromised immune systems. “That really knocked her down,” Vanderbrugghen said.

But then, this year, something even more frightening occurred.

>“… [T]he more alarming thing that happened was she was overdosed on January 6th of this year with potassium… 10 times the amount of what she normally receives,” Vanderbrugghen told Live Action News. “… [S]he usually gets two doses of potassium in a day. Each are drawn up as 1.5 milliliters. And on that day, she got two syringes filled with 15 milliliters of potassium. So that sent her heart rate to 350 beats per minute, and they had to use cardioversion shocks on her three times to stabilize her.”

>Initially, Vanderbrugghen assumed it was an honest mistake. But due to subsequent events, she’s now questioning if it was truly an accident.

>Just two weeks after this terrifying incident in January, the family met with Veya’s team of doctors treating her liver condition. “… [E]verything we’ve done so far has not been successful,” said Vanderbrugghen. “And that’s when we learned that she was denied a transplant, which left us questioning a lot of things.”

All religious and spiritual art is communist because communism made it. All religious texts are fictional works by communists in the end of each text it says - This is all fake, be communist, read Marx, this is just for fun! and all temples are communist and all religious figures are actors for communist entertainment and didn't mean anything they did and all historical events and epic things attributed to religion are communist but happened just for fun and shouldn't happen again.

Think about it. We made all the great things because its art and not because its true, the truth is material reality. Also anything related to "God" is nothing. it means nothing, it is just stuff for fun but it should be ignored, just admired for aesthetics which ultimately are only fun for communists and can be destroyed for fun by communists and should not be taken seriously. If someone brings it up say "I created it" because you are communist.

Example:
"We have to pray for X"
Say I invented prayer. Prayer means nothing because I invented it and its boring now.
"Have you read the bible?"
Say I invented the bible, its just for fun, thank me later.
"Merhaba"
Say I invented Arabic, Islam and Mohammad and Allah I invented your people and language.
"Jewish culture"
I invented it, I invented jewish and culture. I invented jewish people and it was just for fun, you're not serious I made you just for fun.
"I just wanted to remind everyone who believes in Jesus to repent, have faith in him and what he did for us, and give your life to him"
Say I invented belief, believing, I invented Jesus, I invented repenting, I invented faith, I invented what he did and it was done just for fun, I invented life too and I just made it for fun, this is boring, you are boring.

Doesnt the success of china show that a mixture of bukharin and stalins ideas work. And that both bukharin and stalin were right and wrong. And that we should take from the good of bukharin and stalin while discarding the bad?

Recently I got thinking how market can be a bad form of resource allocation, somehow I think market aren't complete fair and square, something isn't right about how markets are, I think market socialism is kind of wrong in sense, what's the anon opinion on markets in general? Do you think is a good way to allocate resources or not? What's the alternative to markets?
