What's actually wrong with the Falange?

>supports workers rights

>strong state that controls strategic sectors
>actually supported the separation of church and state, unlike Franco
>built lots of public housing and infrastructure
>implemented social welfare measures, such as the mandatory family allowance system
>hated Freemasonry, big bankers, and oligarchs, without being anti-semitic

the falangists were syndicalists, they were/were buddy with CNT-FAI, fascism roots from syndicalism, cercle proudhon and most of 19th and 20th century anarchists and utopian socialists with exception of scientific marxists

the materialist outlook or scientific socialism is inherently antifascist

The Falangists were essentially just the Spanish DSA, but with less idpol

The US produced thousands of those planes, Russia doesn't even have a real production line for stealth planes, they barely were able to rediscover ancient soviet tech to make those supersonic bombers

>>2581293

>>2581298
That combined with perhaps a pliable military and a for-profit business keen to stop investing in R&D and cashing in on contracts already would result in the circumstances where the plane is a huge success.. provided it is kept maintained to an acceptable level, and that the level is apparently impossible to achieve in practice is disregarded as a minor oversight.

Por Día de Muertos, este pueblo de México desentierra a los difuntos

>Pomuch, México, es uno de los últimos lugares donde los habitantes limpian los huesos de sus familiares. Ahora se enfrentan a un nuevo reto: los turistas.


María Luisa Euan miraba con ternura cómo su segundo marido limpiaba suavemente el montón de huesos que una vez fueron su primer esposo.

Con un paño blanco, Jorge Jurado limpió un fémur, quitó el polvo de las vértebras y pulió uno a uno cada uno de los dientes dispersos del difunto marido de su esposa.

“Es con amor y cariño”, dijo Jurado, de 66 años, retirando la suciedad de lo que parecía ser un dedo. “Cuando ella se siente alegre, yo me siento alegre igual”.

Euan estuvo de acuerdo. Días antes, habían limpiado los huesos de la primera mujer de Jurado.

“A nuestra edad, no tenemos celos”, dijo Euan, de 69 años. “Y con los finados que se fueron a descansar, menos”.

Aquí, en Pomuch, Campeche, un pueblo de 10.000 habitantes de la península mexicana de Yucatán, la exhumación es un acto de amor.

Apparently folks are still confused about the purpose of sex education. not on here necessarily but like in general

The first and most important component of sex ed is teaching children
a) How to recognize if an adult is sexually abusing you, and
b) What to do if an adult is sexually abusing you.

Comprehensive sex ed includes other topics, including discussion of what changes your body will go through in puberty and how to have safe sex, but those can and usually do come later.

Sex education needs to start as early as possible, because if kids don't start sex ed until age X, then pedophiles know they can more easily get away with abusing kids who are younger than X.

The people most likely to sexually abuse kids are their parents, which is why we need schools, not parents, to provide sex education.  

You likely can't teach a lesson about sexual abuse to a 1-day-old baby, but you absolutely can teach a 5-year-old.  

When you hear policymakers say "kindergarten is too young to get sex education," what they are really saying is that they want to rape kindergartners and not get caught.

You are the most arrogant person on this entire forum and the worst part is is that you have no self awareness of it. You don't understand Chinese, you have no exposure to Chinese media, you have never been to any part of China, and from your previous posts have signaled that you think China is a imperalist capitalist country. If you had been born in a republican instead of democrat your fat american lardass would have easily bought into the WMDs in Iraq bullshit because all you know how to do is blindly trust what Westerners say over everyone else.

Was tricked to sign a letter of resignation from my job at the russian post office. Despite the fact that I was on probation and my employment contract was fixed-term (although informally after its termination they almost always offer a full-time position) my…I don't know - supervisor? the main bitch of the workplace? didn't like me because of a couple of fuckups like a cash shortage, which I was really guilty of and paid for out of my own pocket (the statement of financial responsibility was signed by me on the first day of employment), and she decided to lie that the employee I was replacing was about to go to work.
Which was an easily verifiable lie that I realized literally as I closed the door behind me. Ah, yes, since I quit "at my own request", I have to work for three days, so called "otrabotka" (two weeks if you were taken without probation), which I will not do (devilish?), because after signing my resignation letter I am no longer an employee and can not be forced to work.
Also new thing I learned opening the labor code for the first time.
-there is no concept of working after dismissal, but there is a concept of notification before dismissal, so it should be 3 days or 2 weeks before the fact.

Thanks for reading my stupid rant.

I dont know how China could have avoided staying behind technologically without the Deng reforms, whats the anti-revisionist answer to this?

>>2581112
I don't disagree with your point but in german Aufheben means more like to formally dissolve or abolish, like you could use it so say something like "we're dissolving the company". Entomologically it can be describes as something like to lift up/pick up, or elevate. To dispel (a curse) also works, but that has a decisively negative direction whereas aufheben is more neutral

>>2581224
Yeah, I just wanted to highlight the kind of poetic connotations of "aufheben" inherited from hegel and german gothic literature, because I think it emphasizes the notion that the things we want to "abolish" are like "spells" in that they are social relations, ghostly things that "take hold of us", rather than "things" in the analytical/positivist sense, so you don't "cancel" them directly, you "dispel" them by altering the things that give rise to them.

>>2581207
The answer is that dogmatism and schematic thinking is revisionism.
Adapting to the concrete historical and material conditions at hand is the soul of marxism, applying marxism as an abstract schema for everywhere for all time IS revisionism.

>>2581247
That's a good way to look at it, I think I agree. In a related sense I think it's also interesting that aufheben has a very formal implication, it's almost like declaring the official dissolution of something that's already no longer there, just the form remains, which will now be "abolished" because the reason for that form to exist is no longer there as a base, but it's not the aufhebung itself that ends the thing, it's more of a formal acknowledgement of the facts and making it officially over.

>Conference attended by branch delegates or mix of delegates and lottery winners?

I like the idea of elected delegates from branches and some sortioned members too. In the Labour party you'd get factions like the SWP always trying to stitch up the delegate vote to conference and then not bothering to vote in line with their branches wishes.

A small percentage of sortitioned people helps keep the factions in check to an extent and makes sure that when they do their political education they target everyone not just their sect members.

The biggest rebutal I see in the eyes of the average person to "socialism" and "communism" is that it's utopic, that it relies on bad assumptions, that it doesn't work in reality etc. In essence, that we're advocating for something that can't be and that we have no alternative to capitalism.
And, to that effect, what are we even advocating for ? It appears to me that we have a bunch of different movements with many different goals that don't actually ressemble one another. Yet, despite this, very few of these movements have actual "models", it just seems like they want to reform or do a revolution for the sake of action rather than purpose.
Shouldn't we concentrate on clear objectives and goals before having all this talk about how marxism-leninism-maoism-gonzalo thought is superior to cybernetic-trotskism-councilism in achieving [we run into the problem here]?

>inb4 abolition of private property, abolition of capitalism, abolition of alienation

We can't actually base our objectives around these vagues goals though, or at least not at the current time and at the forefront. Abolition of private property doesn't mean anything if there's no framework to offer an alternative or to replace it. Marx laid us many goals but, given that he didn't specify what or how, shouldn't it be up to us to conceptualize the type of system which we want in accordance with the relevant theories he proposed.

Apart from small intellectuals scattered everywhere (Cockshott, Schweickart etc), there seems to be an evident lack of clear model that actually adresses the critique of marx's ambitions and dismisses its apparent utopianism.

Revolutionary Spain was a mess though. The anarchists refused to seize state power and ended up propping up the liberal republicans. And the attempt at post-capitalist social relations was an incoherent hodgepodge of local systems which barely worked and had to be superseded by an abortive attempt at central planning.

>What do you think of a social network as a sort of hub for direct voluntary organisation of labour
That's a bit like parecon. Imo it could work but it's highly idealistic if it aims to suppress the bulk of production.
I could see it however in a socialist or post-capitalist setting progressively supplanting small services

>>2581203
>Imo it could work but it's highly idealistic if it aims to suppress the bulk of production.
>I could see it however in a socialist or post-capitalist setting progressively supplanting small services
Yeah, of course, it would be impossible to supplant the bulk of production instantaneously. But it is something that could as you say progressively supplant services, and work in conjunction with state seizure. As an alternative economic model it does have possibilities, and could constitute the slow withering of state control of industry.
Something I haven't seen proposed from people purely interested in taking control of the political apparatus. Both are required.

Being into femboys doesn‘t make a man gay or bisexual. This may sound like a cope to avoid admitting to being either, but think about it.

Men who are into femboys are usually men who are also into women. And what they are into in femboys is a heteronormative presentation of femininity. Such men are usually not into men who look like men. One could then argue this is a preference, but a preference would mean that they are still into men but merely prefer this type of man. This isn‘t the case for men who into femboys though. Of all the people who are male they aren‘t turned on by any of them except femboys. So it‘s not a preference, it‘s exclusivity. Finally, men who are into femboys are generally not interested in sucking dick or being fucked in the ass.

We either conclude that 1) this is bisexuality but a very, very limited form of it with peculiarities that make it distinct from ordinary bisexuals who are attracted to average men, or 2) it is heterosexuality, but a redefined version whose basis isn‘t biology but certain signifiers and presentation, or 3) these men are standard heterosexuals but given enough female elements the gullible human brain mistakes it for a woman and lights up the horny center of the male brain. Evolution did not foresee cute, horny femboys and therefore didn‘t exclude it as a pointless mating option.

i was researching freemasonry, when i got to the "lansdowne MS" (1560) which is part of the "old charges" of the order (english masonry only officially beginning with the grand lodge in 1717). what struck me is the lexicon highlighted here:
<First, there is no reference of the word ‘Freemason’ or even ‘Free Mason’, only ‘Free born’.  This might suggest Free Mason was not yet in use in England.
https://www.thesquaremagazine.com/mag/article/202101lansdowne-ms/
this is interesting, since it reminds me of john lilburne's notion of an englishman's "freeborn" rights (1641-9). was liberalism a child of arcane masonry (such that later liberal revolutionaries openly adopted the doctrine)?

>Do you think it’s still opium of the masses take for example Donald Trump is a crypto fascist like what he did in Iran
What the fuck. Blumpf is just another liberal.

two interesting games that demonstrate jevons' notion of utility maximisation (1869) is "unfair flips" and "a game about digging a hole", where one must "spend money to make money", as it were. thus, buffing the stats of particular attributes increases aggregate productivity. as jevons says, this relates to the division of labour, since increasing the use of labour to different ends causes wealth in general to increase. smith highlights this also. the collaboration of different products into a higher order commodity is spoken of by menger too, as a mode of increasing value; the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. so to say, marginal utility (e.g. exchange-value) decreases as total utility (e.g. use-value) increases. spending leads to lesser costs. bernie sanders has also discussed this "infrastructural" or public provision (what in lockean terms may refer to "trust", the element of liberty as a social contract), in terms of services like healthcare - it is also conceived of by fuller; "a stitch in time saves nine". we can certainly see the concept of a public, or "civil society" within the liberal idea, then.

jevons further stated his support not just for public services but also co-operative ownership of business by workers, which he saw as a form of self-government. another 19th century liberal, john stuart mill, wrote of his "socialist" ideals in his autobiography (sidenote: adam smith claimed that capitalists destroy society by their class interest and that if there was no need for their mastery, things would be better. smith later inspired early socialist thought, from the "ricardians" to proudhon, in a period from 1816-48, later inspiring engels and marx with an "enlightened" political economy, furthered by ricardo). other liberals like murray rothbard (via locke) and ronald reagan similarly expressed their support for public and co-operative ownership (see: "confiscation and the homestead principle", 1969 and "transcript of speech presented at the white house", august 3, 1987):

>How many times does Smith Anon have to read this?
He doesn't read he only lies.

>>2578738
lies about what? 🤔

>>2578085
>>2578738
here are some more resources to help your confusion:
<The prices which obtain as the average of the various rates of profit in the different spheres of production added to the cost-prices of the different spheres of production, constitute the prices of production […] And in the same way the sum of the prices of production of all commodities produced in society — the totality of all branches of production — is equal to the sum of their values.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1894-c3/ch09.htm
so, the average price is still reflective of the value given in production, the same as in pre-capitalist relations, and in fact, the total average is equal to the total value. so as marx says, total value = total price, which if you measure as exchange-value, comes to the same conclusion: [Ax = By]. hope this helps. 🙂

>>2578738
Smith Anon believes exchange ratios equate to value (SNLT) ratios. Smith Anon missed the announcement in Capital Book I that this is not so and that this point will be developed in Book III of Capital.

>>2578042
<The grouping of the various value portions of a commodity which only replace the value of the capital expended in its production under the head of cost-price expresses, on the one hand, the specific character of capitalist production. The capitalist cost of the commodity is measured by the expenditure of capital, while the actual cost of the commodity is measured by the expenditure of labour. Thus, the capitalist cost-price of the commodity differs in quantity from its value, or its actual cost-price.
Chapter one.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1894-c3/ch01.htm

Smith Anon hasn't read Book III. Not even the first chapter. (By the way I also don't believe he read Book I. He has attention deficit disorder. He just poked around in it, pulled some quotes, and stored them for later use together with some key words. Since then his mind has deteriorated even further and now he just goes through these "conversations" with his NPC graph. Not only does he not remember the broader context of these quotes, he doesn't even remember the context window of the sentences right before and after. Actually, he doesn't even read the quotes he copy-pastes. He sees a trigger word and seeks to retrieve something with that label. What's next in his intellectual development? I suppose he will streamline the process by not reading whole trigger words and just go by the first letter.)

>>2580366
so… what is the argument? 🤔
what is the difference between exchange-value ratios and value ratios? oh wait, you already said that you dont know. as i have perfectly demonstrated, the ratio between values in exchange (SNLT) is their price. if A = B = £2, this is its amount in SNLT.
>Thus, the capitalist cost-price of the commodity differs in quantity from its value, or its actual cost-price.
yes… what the cost is to the capitalist (c+v) is not the cost of total production, which is its "actual cost-price", or value (c+v+s):
<The value of every commodity produced in the capitalist way is represented in the formula: C = c + v + s.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1894-c3/ch01.htm
thus, the value of the total commodity is factored by surplus value, which may equalise a rate of profit by combining capitals, as i have already shown: total price = total value. you can read this here if youre still confused: >>2578826
here's an explanation of the chart:
<Taken together, the commodities are sold at 2 + 7 + 17 = 26 above, and 8 + 18 = 26 below their value, so that the deviations of price from value balance out one another through the uniform distribution of surplus-value, or through addition of the average profit of 22 per 100 units of advanced capital to the respective cost-prices of the commodities I to V.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1894-c3/ch09.htm
total price = total value. hope this helps 🙂

Starting this thread and hopefully it stays a general. There's no thread dedicated to the EVROPA and what happens here.

everal European countries are currently reevaluating their military conscription policies, with some, like Croatia, having recently decided to reinstate it. Regarding pension reforms, the debate is also active, with France serving as a prominent example where a recent reform is facing political opposition and proposed suspension.
>Croatia.
Parliament voted in October 2025 to bring back a 2-month compulsory service starting in 2026.
>Germany
The government is moving toward a "new military service" model starting with a mandatory digital questionnaire for young men from 2027, with the potential for mandatory conscription if needed.
>Denmark
Expanding to include women from July 2025. Service is selected via a lottery system from the pool of eligible 18-year-olds.
>Latvia
Reintroduced in 2023. All men between 18 and 27 must serve for 11 months.

Concurrently, pension reform is trying to be pushed in Belgium, France, Bosnia and Slovenia (that I know of). All want to raise the retirement age and lower pensions low term.

Serbia has a rebellion going on for almost a year.

Seen this guy several times as a war pundit, he's on copium like an average NAFOid. He might be the type of commander who would insist on infantry holding out inside a tactical encirclement indefinitely. The comments are full of NAFO simps though because he apparently looks like a "German general should look like" in their mind, so maybe that's why gets invited.
Meanwhile there's the Austrian colonel who is also coping but apparently has a far more sober view on the theatre.

one of the biggest things they teach in bourgeois economics is that "actually 100% employment is BAD! because it means people can't quit their jobs if they want to and the supply of labor in the labor market will be too low!" I see it dropped casually like it's just a matter-of-fact by people, especially "influencers" who aren't even bourgeois or economists because it's repeated so often. I hate this myth so fucking much for so many reasons, but it's obviously functioning as an ideological justification for the reserve army of labor whether the people repeating it realize that or not (they usually don't even know what the reserve army of labor is). People quit their jobs because their wages are too low, instead of getting organized, because getting organized is harder than quitting and begging another porky for a job. Then when they're begging porky for another job, which can take literally months, they are getting application after application rejected for no good reason, and finally they get desperate and accept a job that is as bad or even worse than their previous job. Most people desire stable employment and a living wage and only quit their job because their wage is shit. So saying or implying that having an unemployment rate of 5-10% is "good" because "people can quit their jobs due to high mobility in the labor market!" functions to justify this state of affairs.

Porky has always opposed 100% unemployment. Pic and vid related.

>"undervalued" currency
no such thing. It's not either-either. Some things are cheaper on one market and pricier on another - difference averages in currency exchanges

>>2568477
>US industrial base declined because they outsourced everything for cheap labor.
They didn't, they got outcompeted by native producers of numerous nations who did the same job cheaper, most notable example of such a nation being China. At the time, Americans already had separated corporation HQs from producers, so the ones being outcompeted were producers and not corporations; instead, corporations had replaced one supplier with another, residing overseas.

With the exception of China, I don't know any other country that had received any kind of technology from those corporations, nobody except for China bought factories in USA and Europe and transported them overseas.

>>2568483
Undervalued currency means a currency that isn't allowed to be traded freely on the market, and upon which a downward pressure is exerted by the govt that issues the currency.

>>2568491
No infinite value engines exist in economics, just like no perpetual engines exist in physics. "Undervaluing currency" means there is a way to artificially change value of goods - meaning such a perpetual engine. And we know for a fact that's bullshit, Marx went over examples of such machines in the first chapter of Kapital

>one of the biggest things they teach in bourgeois economics is that "actually 100% employment is BAD!
In the Manifest Marx and Engels are explicit: Equal liability of all to work. 100% employment is explicit socialist policy. Like your image says, the US and UK freaked out about the ITO charter for a reason.

Next year marks 18 years since the Great Recession. There is going to be a massive black hole in consumption where the children of Millennials are supposed to be. A lot of people won't be turning 18 next year. They won't be on campus. They won't buy cars. They won't work and pay taxes. They certainly will never invest in the stock market or real estate.

As this happens, AI has already cleaned up the entry level knowledge work market. This process actually started in 2020 when Western students stopped paying tutors in Africa and Asia to write their crappy undergrad essays because of ChatGPT. I seriously think that if we don't beat concessions out of the ruling class in the 2030s, then we never will. They will figure out a way to install a surveillance state and abolish the proletariat with soma and techno-lobotomies.
