Chapter 15 sucks. I thought it wasn't supposed be an appeal to morality? Recurring in several parts of the text but chapter 15 especially is a pure slog.

I aint read a book since holes uygha

A lot of the critique in capital rests on ethical presuppositions (the primacy of human life and wellbeing) substantiated by facts and immanent critique.
What did you think it was?

imageboard weirdos (whether 4chud nazi or leftypol "communist") are so addicted to not appearing to be a "moralfag" that they'll trick themselves into thinking their own chief ideologists didn't care about morality. They'll hype each other up with their Total [designated outgroup scapegoat] Death spam while posting gore/cp and unironically trick themselves into thinking they are superior ubermensches to the rest of the population.

>m-muh moralizing
You people are hilarious.

thank you again for the MZT/M3W/MLM effortpost

How do you "justify" anything without an appeal to morality?

>>2788892
someone more philosophically inclined will probably clown on me for this but I think the 3 forms of justification are

>might makes right

>truth makes right
>morality makes right

something can be one of those things without being the other two.

An appeal to morality is only an appeal to moralists not necessarily an argument in an of itself.

The section on the Factory Acts is crucial to understanding the role of 'progressive' reforms and the state to capital. Limiting child labor and the working day allowed the further rationalization and extension of industrial production, while the seething laizzez-faire factory owners were actually better off once the laws were in place and their workforces weren't dropping like flies.
