What's the material explanation for leftoids not believing in free will but also constantly feeling guilty from doing everything? If you don't believe in human agency then there's no point in feeling shame about being a treatler who exploit migrant workers delivering soybean-flavoured corn syrup extract for 10 cents an hour because that's just where your material conditions land you

If you believe that your irrational guilt about your imperial status is in fact predetermined, and you cant do anything about it, what makes it different from a mental illness and why do leftists often feel that having this guilt make them better people than others who are predetermined to not feel it

>>743738>What's the material explanation for leftoids not believing in free willhardly universal
> but also constantly feeling guilty from doing everything? If you don't believe in human agency then there's no point in feeling shamea feeling is a feeling. it comes automatically. it's not rational. but also this feeling you describe is not universal. you have made two assumptions so far:
1. "leftoids" "believe" in "free will"
2. these same "leftoids" also "feel" "guilt"
>>743801>Basic 101 tenant of Marxism.the question of free will is entirely irrelevant and I don't care of it's "revisionist" to say so, but I don't think it is:
Marx:
<But here individuals are dealt with only in so far as they are the personifications of economic categories, embodiments of particular class-relations and class-interests. My standpoint, from which the evolution of the economic formation of society is viewed as a process of natural history, can less than any other make the individual responsible for relations whose creature he socially remains, however much he may subjectively raise himself above them. >>743758>le lacan said you know yourself by knowing otherWrong. It was hegel who said that, not lacan. Fuck lacan. Fuck you. Go back to /dead/.
