>Know this, I will not let anyone force me to feel respect for this pig (Marx) or his totalitarian disciples, nor for the toilet paper known as his texts…
Actual response from an anarchoid I had when bringing up that Capital is a fundamental - crucial text worth studying and that has been studied even by anarchists such as Carlo Cafiero, mind you I am an also an anarchist, but the hostility of the majority of the declassed towards any notion of learning from the communist movement or tending towards the proletariat is so vile it feels like trying to perform exorcism.


okay, lets say marx is worthless.
who is an alternative thinker to read?

>the hostility of the majority of the declassed towards any notion of learning from the communist movement or tending towards the proletariat is so vile it feels like trying to perform exorcism.

Agree

if marx is too tankie they should read works from the famous anarchist bandit author adolf hitler

>bonobos literally ended up in communism by accident
>communism led to bonobos being matriarchal
>matriarchy means there's no reason for monogamy to exist
>polygamy reigns
>INCEST

I propose a theory. A theory that is literally poison to our chimp brains.

The only reason why incest is a socio-cultural-legal taboo for us is because we ended up with monogamy.
1. Patriarchy emerges from males competing over, and accumulating, scarce resources.
2. This results in a select number of males monopolizing violence and living like kings with harems.
3. But as the population expands, there is a need for a greater capacity for violence, which exceeds the capabilities of the select number of males.
4. Monogamy emerges as a means of "bribing" the unlucky males without harems, to serve the ruling class males, and act as agents of violence when necessary, essentially retaining the order.
5. But as the population expands further, population control, social engineering in other words, becomes realized as a necessity for retaining the order.
6. Inbreeding is bad for the order. If on average an unlucky male gets one partner, and that partner is a parent or sibling, there is a high likelihood that the offspring of that male will become dead weight for the ruling class of males.

>"the ruling class operates on the same rules as everyone else"
The first Slavic ruler documented in history, some Frankish merchant named Samo that helped Slavs rebel against their mobster-like Avar "friends" (as in, I will "protect" you while eating your food and sleeping with your wife and daughters which of course you "consent" to under no intimidation at all) had like a dozen or more wives or some shit.

>>2289193
But these tendencies in peoples in cultures and the tendency of monogamy itself developed with the mode of production, the very premise of this thread is absurd. We don't have to worry about how people will have sex in the future and sell and explain that to people today, it's going to emerge on its own alongside conditions they find themselves in. We aren't primitivists, we don't have to worry about bonobos because we are going forwards from here not backwards to there.

>>2289115
>there is no ruling class, but we would live in a matriarchy
do you know what matriarchy means?
"mater" - mother
"archien" - to rule
how can women "rule" without rulers? you are just being contradictory
>women will own their own bodies and be promiscuous
unlike now?
>>2289119
"savage" is a noun which refers to the uncivilised. before agriculture, everyone is savage. civilisation of course, is just more and more organised violence.

Also people in this thread keep mixing up "matriarchal" with "matrilineal", humanity was likely matrilineal if you go back far enough and Engels talks about that but its not the same thing as rule by women.

Given that most governments are imposed on to citizens through armed force, it is the responsibility of citizens to separate and protect themselves from hostile societies and their own government. To do this, they would need to own weapons, home defence, their own homes, have their identities and personal information blocked hidden away from government and foreign entities, have their own places to store their belongings, and be in a physical state where they can fight. Depending on your beliefs, either none of this requires any change in economic policy, or if you’re a materialist, none of this requires an organized society-spanning revolt to force self defence in mass. Only that any government’s or really any armed group’s control over a population is kept to an absolute minimum under the legitimate threat that it would deal with armed resistance if it overstepped what its citizens or allies were willing to tolerate.

For some materialists, this armed society is the only one where any real socialist movements is possible, because any collective effort made in this society has material reasons to be near completely consensual among all members

>>2289069
>responsibility
you seem to be under the impression that politics is a matter of cherry-picking axioms from mainstream morality and then making (what you think is) a clever logical inference from there. I'm going to report this as low effort bait and hopefully it will be moved away from the main board

ever hear of the social contract?
the unfortunate yet undeniable fact of things is that people get the government they deserve. the state is not an external entity to a populace, but its own political expression.

German federal press conference 2 days ago (topic: Namibia's first memorial day on the German genocide against the Nama and Herero and the current negotiations concercing reparations and reconciliation)

Journalist(Tilo Jung):
>The trigger for this genocide was a massacre of 1,000 Germans by Herero and Nama militias. Considering today’s world situation and Germany’s stance on Gaza, was this massacre in any way a justification for the German genocide that followed?

Government response:
>I don’t want to make historical comparisons with the present.

Jounalist(Tilo Jung):
>Well there is a reason why there is genocide research for that. The German government repeatedly refers to the October 7 Hamas massacre regarding the Gaza war. Would it ever consider the Herero and Nama massacre a justification for the genocide? That’s a simple question.

Government Response:
>I’ve already said what I have to say.

>Warum hatten Marx, Engels und Stalin eine äußerst negative Einstellung zum Islam?


>Marx und Engels sagten in „Kriegserklärung: Eine Geschichte vom Ursprung der Orientalischen Frage“: „Der Koran und das auf ihm basierende islamische Gesetz reduzieren die Geographie und die Menschlichkeit der verschiedenen Nationen auf eine einfache Formel, nämlich sie in zwei Arten von Ländern und zwei Arten von Nationen zu unterteilen – orthodoxe Gläubige und Heiden.“


„Die Ungläubigen sind ‚Harbis‘ oder Todfeinde.“

„Der Yslismus erklärt, dass nicht alle Heiden durch das Gesetz geschützt sind und schafft einen Zustand ständiger Feindseligkeit zwischen Heiden und Heiden … Dies steht offensichtlich im völligen Widerspruch zu den Anforderungen der Ära der sozialisierten Großproduktion und ist eine alte Form der sklavenhaltenden reaktionären Oligarchie, die vollständig beseitigt werden muss.“

Stalin sagte in „Die reaktionäre Natur des Monotheismus und seine Illusionen“: „Der Islam ist die reaktionärste, ignoranteste, rückständigste und blutigste Religion.“

>Den Memoiren Albert Speers zufolge war Hitler davon überzeugt, dass die Deutschen, sollte der Islam in Mitteleuropa Fuß fassen, „die Erben dieser Religion“ werden würden, da der Islam „vollkommen zum deutschen Temperament passte“.


Hitler sagte, dass die Araber aufgrund ihrer „rassischen Minderwertigkeit“ nicht in der Lage wären, sich an das raue Klima und die Bedingungen der Region anzupassen, und dass islamisierte Deutsche „die Oberhäupter dieses mohammedanischen Reiches werden“ würden.

>Marx und Engels sagten in „Kriegserklärung: Eine Geschichte vom Ursprung der Orientalischen Frage“

Das bezieht sich wahrscheinlich auf: Die Kriegserklärung - Zur Geschichte der orientalischen Frage Das ist MEW Band 10, ab Seite 168. Auf Seite 170 dann die Quelle von dem Zitat, das natürlich etwas verhunzt wurde: aus Ethnographie wurde Menschlichkeit und Feinde gesteigert in Todfeinde.
>Zustand ständiger Feindseligkeit zwischen Heiden und Heiden

>Friedrich Merz sang the praises of his ultra-right grandfather in front of party colleagues in the Sauerland region. Last week, the deputy chairman of the CDU parliamentary group in the Bundestag called for the recall of the "red mayor" in his hometown of Brilon. Merz said it filled him with "deep horror" that a Social Democrat was sitting in the town hall. "This must end," he said, because his grandfather was formerly the mayor of Brilon. That's why he would be there if "the red town hall" was stormed. Josef Paul Sauvigny, Merz's grandfather, was a right-wing extremist who remained mayor of Brilon after the Nazis seized power in 1933 and was a fan of Adolf Hitler.

>Since the "Westfalenpost" newspaper reported on the political rhetoric, a reader's battle has raged in the small Sauerland town. Many residents were appalled by the CDU politician's brutal rhetoric. "With his words, Merz disavows the majority of Brilon voters," wrote one reader. Merz is deeply troubled by the fact that a Social Democrat won the mayoral election in the last local elections in 1999. The "red" incumbent, Franz Schrewe, reacted calmly to Merz's attacks. "This is election campaign bluster," said the SPD mayor. The Christian Democrat's vocabulary, he said, contains terms that should be a thing of the past.


>Merz's admiration for his grandfather is also eternally yesterday. Josef Paul Sauvigny, initially a member of the right-wing Catholic Center Party, served as mayor of Brilon from 1917 to 1937. But when the National Socialists came to power in 1933 and the Center Party was banned a year later, Sauvigny was allowed to remain in office. Until his retirement from City Hall due to age, Merz's grandfather served the fascist reign of terror loyally and devotedly. The Brilon city administration has declined to answer whether Sauvigny was a Nazi party member between 1933 and 1937. "No one in this administration will tell you that," says First Deputy Mayor Reinhard Sommer.


https://taz.de/Merz-bejubelt-rechten-Grossvater/!806584/

>>2289228
>Was Grandfather Sauvigny a Nazi henchman? And Friedrich Merz his ardent admirer? According to research by local historians in Brilon, the National Socialists were at least very pleased with Sauvigny. An article in the "Sauerländer Zeitung" on July 2, 1937, about Sauvigny's retirement stated: "He always administered his office in the National Socialist spirit." The same newspaper, on May 3, 1933, quoted Josef Paul Sauvigny's hymn of praise to Adolf Hitler: "While until now, German power has been divided and bleed to death from the constant change of leadership, today it is a force that guides us, a leader who calls us. (…) The venerable Reich President and Chancellor Hitler, long live them."

Eran las Misiones Jesuíticas del Paraguay AES?

Eran comunidades de indígenas y mestizos organizadas por la compañía de jesus. Donde antes había grandes latifundios organizaron misiones para instruir a los indígenas no solo en la religión, llevaron la alfabetización y la cultura a estratos populares. Tenían bandas de música y hasta se publicaban obras en guaraní

Eran autosuficientes y muy exitosas económicamente. De hecho no tenían moneda y trabajaban comunalmente, cada misión se especializaba en una actividad económica y hacían trueque entre ellas mientras que recaudaban fondos comerciando con el exterior. Mezclaban técnicas modernas de agricultura con conocimientos indígenas e instruían ampliamente a los indígenas, tanto es así que los bandeirantes portugueses las raideaban para raptarlos porque eran muy cotizados como esclavos
Las autoridades virreinales los veían como competencia y los acabaron expulsando

En general eran como turbomonasterios del tamaño de pueblos y ciudades

This is all pretty cold, but, get the impression that since 2008 there's been a variety of attempts to figure out what to do with hardware performance which is eccentrically sufficient for consumers. Part of this is scaling, so you can have more tabs open, more pixels, and higher fidelity graphics etc. Another part is making thinks which couldn't have existed before 2008. The addition of production driverless cars and the transition from ELIZA-style chatbots to LLM are examples of this, but have only shown up recently. These are potential major changes in the means of production. Wonder if there was a twelve to fifteen year lull though. Probably something to do with innovation cycles or something.

Didn‘t Russia try to be cooperative with the West until Putin made a U-turn a bit more than a decade ago?

My parents thought sending me to conversion therapy would make me not trans - instead it just left me with BPD which only makes me hotter to other trans women. This is a classic case of the literary device called "irony".

what the fuck why does every trans woman I know has either BPD, CPTSD, an anxiety disorder, adhd or autism? (I have 3 of those myself btw lol)

None of these are real.

I’m sick of endless grinding and new content and updates and loot boxes and leveling and ranked matches and micro transactions.

Obra Dinn rocked my world. I haven’t played a game that reminded me of the magic of the medium in years until pic related. Just finished Dredge and it was a cute little experience.

I’d like this thread to be for games that can be finished in a few days and leave an impact. Like when you look at a book on the shelf you’ve read and go ‘oh yeah, that was great’. I want to go through my steam library and not just see slop, I want to see something closer to art.

Recs, please!

I beat it recently too. Loved the ending. It was so hard to not just look everything up. But it was so rewarding when it clicks and you figure out the puzzles after backtracking and taking notes. It felt earned. I think the only thing I had to look up was an environmental “puzzle” which was literally just how to sneak past guards in the warrior level by using the other guards as cover. I guess I thought their field of view was bigger.

>I’m an antinatalist. I think it’s unforgivable to bring new people into this world given that there is suffering. The thing is that lately I’ve been thinking and feeling that people aren’t real. This would partially solve the problem of evil. There is just my suffering and everyone else is a simulation designed to spite me. This should cause me to not feel so antinatalist since the breeders are disgusting alien mockeries of a true human being, namely myself. Yet somehow I still feel very antinatalist. When I see children with their parents I am disgusted at the entire concept. They are probably just facets of the simulation and not souls brimming with the inner light of awareness like myself. And yet they still move me enough to cause disgust. I suppose that was the intention of the designer(s), to create something that appeared so real that it was actually disturbing. Dr. Miller says I have some sort of syndrome after finding out about my solipsism. I think he’s an imbecile who deserves to be burned on a stake. But out of my bodhisattva-like compassion I would instead grant him a consciousness and send him to heaven forever.

Why do people hate pansexuals? Like, im not bi, but ive met some men i would be happy dateing but most disgust me. Same thing for women. Ive also dated trans folks but i never dated anyone JUST for their gender or gender identity, it seems like meaningless peacokcing behavior to me. I like who i like, regardless of what their identify is or anything else. What i dont understand is the hate toward the term, apart from the normal hate you get from being openly queer. Im a closeted pan sexual and i only really talk about this stuff with my partners, who also are almost always pan.

thoughts?

I always heard pansexual meant you will have sex with anything. Dogs, trees, cars, couches, etc.

Do you think bi people are attracted to literally every member of both genders? Do you think straight guys are attracted to literally all women? That isn't how sexual attraction works for anyone lol
>What i dont understand is the hate toward the term, apart from the normal hate you get from being openly queer
Because it's tumblr as fuck and because there is no functional difference from bisexuality. Those of us old enough to remember how pan was used 15 years ago know it used to be different, it used to be that "pan" meant attraction regardless of sex or gender and bi meant attraction regardless of sex. But now you're not even allowed to be bi in that old sense anymore so what is the difference supposed to be?

I've been wondering if I may be trans for quite awhile now, but everything's so confusing and I feel like I havent gotten any closer to a clear answer.

I'm a dude, but I dont like masculinity at all. I want to be more feminine and look prettier. I have a lot of gripes with my body, however its nowhere near as much as what most people describe as body dysphoria. This may be because I already have a relatively feminine body for a guy, but I dont know.

The main problem I have with being a man is the male gender roles and place in society, not so much the body itself. I hate being expected to be aggresive, emotionless, and be into "manly" things. I feel like if gender roles and gender norms didnt exist at all then I wouldnt have a problem being a man, but they unfortunately do exist. So does that make me trans? Or does it not count because im not dysphoric enough about my body? Am I just faking these feelings and confusing myself?

Petty as it might be, I like knowing there are other guys like me. I won't transition fully, but I'm partial to HRT. To me, the majority of men just look unpleasant. And I doubt it's entirely due to women being more concerned about their appearance

>To see bodies which aren't sanitized to death
I wonder how much stress and unrealistic expectations anime characters have caused among people. Honestly, I don't blame the artist, only those sheltered so much they no longer know what an actual human body looks like in the flesh and bone.
Which kind of includes me too tbh.

I have my own thing going
>how my life went I think I might have been a lot better off if I was born a girl but I see no advantage to me in going outright trans girl particularly in my current age
>I never in past thought of myself as a girl though didnt exactly think of myself as a boy in any explicit way either. i didnt care about that but I always preferred the company of girls but social norms isolated and alienated me from being with girls even my own sister who would not spend time with me and more recently I sometimes notice I started occasionally thinking of myself like a girl other times just a guy
>I dont like my face even though I am considered attractive by masculine standards by some girls though i noticed most are bisexual, and it is especially bad now since signs of aging started hitting me after having a bad time for years and to make it worse i was avoiding looking at myself in the mirror so things changed without my gradual knowledge like my cheeks arent so full now for example changing my face shape
> I dont really like my body but I dont know what I want it to look like and what even is possible
>I think the concept of masculine and feminine are too arbitrary and vague. I dont care if my behavior is seen as masculine or feminine, just attractive and enjoyable for me.
>I just want clothes that look good on me and wish that norms were more flexible for males on the norm as it is for females so I could feel more free to experiment on looks
>I am more interested in being generally attractive and youthful so I wouldn't like altering anything in appearance if I become less attractive but I am not sure if I care more about my own view or the view of female romantic interests and I do favor more feminine forms or androgynous ones over masculine.
>I think the concept of cis, trans, and non binary are all spooks and only sometimes use such terms to more quickly communicate certain ideas.

You sound like me when I started transition. People say, just take E and figure it out later. 'It gets better'.
Well after doing injections for 30 months I wouldn't do it again.
1 month off now. But I had to try it. I got an amazing body out of it and felt better. Malefailed etc. But I had these thoughts for so long doubting if what I'm doing is right. I just kept putting them off. Doubling down on my transition. Until one day I was finally like. No I will be him once more. Properly. Being a man does not mean being aggressive or emotionless. It is the opposite. A true man has lots of heart and is genuine. Don't listen to expectations. I never had strong body dysphoria. I lurked /cd growing up n always wanted to transition and did it eventually and I'm glad I did. Whatever you pick you have to be sure. But there's nothing wrong with going back or trying what works for you. Now I regret losing my natural body and having tits. But I also feel seeing the other side made me a stronger person. I would never be able to live with myself if I didn't make a solid effort in trying it. In the end, none of this(gender) is real and you are the only person that can make the decision. Easier said then done. I think being trans doesn't always mean you have to transition though. There is no 'trans enough' or any of that. It doesn't 'not count'. It's a decision you make. Apologies for the word salad. Look at your future and also which decision/state of being would you fight for? And if you do, be damn sure you want to sterilize yourself.

Nietzsche, first of all – began to undermine communist ideology.
<‘Whom do I detest most, among the modern scoundrels? The Socialist scoundrels – the apostles of the mob, who intrigue against the workers’ instinct, contentment and feeling of satisfaction with their modest life – who make the workers envious, and teach them revenge.’
(The Will To Power)
<Socialism ‘is for the most part a symptom of the fact that we are treating the lower classes too humanely, so that they get a taste of the happiness forbidden to them… It is not hunger that causes revolution; it is the fact that when the people begin to eat they acquire larger appetites.’
(Ibid)

So - the exploited classes would be at ease with their poverty, if it wasn't for socialist agitators; and it is not material poverty that causes revolt, it's people daring to imagine a better life.

No, these philosophies are not compatible. Let me reminder all idiots here that you don't get to pick and choose when it comes to Marxism. You take it as a totality, as a totalitarian philosophy of life, or you don't accept it at all.

>Gender issues don’t play well in comics. The most notorious example is Dave Sims’ Cerebus series, which, as soon the topic was raised, degenerated from a hilarious and inventive series into self-indulgent, misogynistic rants that quickly became unreadable. By contrast, though, Garth Ennis has not only been discussing gender issues repeatedly in his series, but doing so in with an artistry that makes what he has to say intelligent even if – as I do – you have reservations about his opinions.


>This suggestion, I realize, requires some defense. Garth Ennis? The hard-swearing, raunchy, ultra-violent, hilarious Garth Ennis, who had to start his own publishing company to write the sort of things he wanted? And there is no denying that Ennis is fascinated by machismo and war, so much so that his treatment of super heroes almost always involves men trained in violence overcoming those with super powers.


>Remember, though, that this is the same writer whose best-known work, Preacher, ends with the hero literally riding into the sunset with the love of his life – the same writer who gave loner John Constantine a major love interest in Kit Ryan, a tough, cynical woman from Belfast, and even managed to make their breakup poetic and sentimental.


>If you focus on the scripts and ignore the often gratuitously sexist artwork, he is also the writer who manages believable portraits of strong women like Deborah Tiegel and Bloody Mary. Yes, there is a large degree of male wish-fulfillment in female characters like Tulip O’Hare or Annie January, but there is also an effort to give them their own inner lives and concerns in a way that few male writers of graphic novels have even attempted.


>I have read much of Ennis’ work, but far from all of it. To say the least, he is prolific, and some of his work, such as his war stories, would only interest me because they were done by him. However, three of works stand out as places where gender roles play a major role.

If you 'denounce' the historical real socialism that existed and exists, you can't be a communist.
>but those were not real communism
Real communism is the movement which abolishes the current state of things (private property the alienation of species-being) and it is the expansion of worker association to international terms. To think 'communism' can be reduced to just a single historical act is silly. It is, after all, a process. Real socialism was one such historical act in a chain of many to come.
>okay, they are communist, but they are totalitarian! They are authoritarian!
Those are empty words liberal ideolouges use to justify equating the Soviet anti-colonial socialist project and the Nazifascistic colonial Lebensraum project, to keep the status quo of liberal representative democracy as the 'only democratic nonauthoritarian' society.

And you will defend the People's Republics of China, Vietnam, Laos, Cuba, Belarus and the DPRK. You will study Cuban agroecology and you will learn to live with nature. You will have Chinese high speed rails and high quality Belarusian agricultural machinery. You will be happy.

>>2286149
but anon what else would we talk about if we didn't quibble over the definition of words?

I really don't mind (at least somewhat reasonable) critique at all. However,
I think it's a little much to demand the end of commodity production when it's coming from people who couldn't hold down a job or organize as much as a birthday party. Sorry, I don't wanna be mean, I know you can critique things you have no real experience with, however here I think these two facets are inextricably linked.
The less you are, the less you live, the more you have an opinion on the right way of doing things. Or rather an opinion of how things should be as they don't have more than a nebulous conception of doing things.

>>2289023
Your critique is even more general. Imagine getting mad that post-colonial opted out to modernize and industrialize in the only way known - i.e. the western way - to secure their anticolonial revolution and that then they didn't abolish commodity production 'fast enough'.
Their heads would explode if you tell them Stalin was planning for more democracy, less party control, 7 hour work days, only to be cut short because German imperialism attacked

CISC machines like x86 don't actually execute the instructions given to them directly. a modern x86 CPU is actually RISC inside, and there's a translation layer inbetween.

2. Entrenched cultist with ideological conviction

For example, America is full of the first kind. I wouldn't expect your regular American Christian to oppose life extension through science, because they wouldn't be ideologically consistent enough in their worldview to want that. Their fear of death or inconvenience in the moment outweighs the abstract possibility of heaven in their mind, creating a sort of instinctive doublethink. For such people, religion is an expression of autopilot conformity. They don't have agency are more like red blood cells in the social organism rather than something to be exterminated.

Keep in mind, I have massive contempt for the first type of reactionary. Unfortunately, they are the VAST majority in every society, and the "socialization" solution for this majority is only achievable through careful sustained effort (as the USSR learned the hard way). If the Uyghurs are a variant of this first type of person, then overkill persecution isn't necessary and won't achieve much (aside from bad optics).

HOWEVER, if they are like the second group - Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, or other moralizing fundies who would prevent us from playing god with science, they deserve everything they get and more.

Most of what I know about these people is from heavily biased sources. Do we have any objective proof that Uyghurs belong to the second category of fundamentalist reactionaries? I have no stake in this matter, and am open to a convincing argument on why they people actually suck.

I should probably read theory more seriously so I stop falling for grifters over and over again

that's based on "western verification" process, smartass. people have lived with old registries that the western institutions don't acknowledge as legitimate.
