Miss me with that broscience. Maybe pathetic incels will put up with anything, but women absolutely do have social pressure to act a certain way. They always have catty bitches among their peers who put them down based on behavior, especially being forward with men.

>“NUKE TEL AVIV!!!” is a terrible slogan. “GO BACK TO POLAND” is a terrible slogan. “ALL ISRAELIS ARE EVIL” is a terrible slogan.
Statements like this are perfectly legitimate because they highlight the urgency of the situation. You're concerned about respectability politics when there's a fucking GENOCIDE going on and hundreds of CHILDREN are being slaughtered WEEKLY.

Screaming "Nuke Tel Aviv!" is good because it shows the world that we are watching the IOF and we won't let the IOF get away with any of their genocidal crimes. Urgent situations require moral absolutism and "extremist" rhetoric.

Although not a left-wing movement, the Capitol Hill incident, dominated by the right-wing, did involve some significant aspects. The result was a very strict crackdown and punishment, with many people sentenced to several years in prison. If protesters really intend to interfere with important places, the punishment from the U.S. government will be severe, which I think may make many people think twice.

尽管不是左翼活动，但是右翼主导的国会山事件确实涉及了一些比较重要的地方，结果就是非常严格的镇压与处罚，很多人都被判处了数年的入狱。如果真的要去干涉重要的地方，美国政府的处罚绝不会轻，我想这可能会让很多人停下脚步。

Do you know what a philosopher is? Or why that is relevant to Marx? No, because you can't read, chinlet. Read a book.

Being a fucked up weirdo because you have trauma doesn't excuse it. There's lots of people who don't cope with their trauma that way, and it's reasonable to expect somebody to at least try not to cope with their trauma in a way that harms others.

>>527491
it's fine to do that if you want to but it's not based to be prescriptivist about it. Women aren't betraying your cause if they want to get dicked down every now and then. It doesn't mean she has internalized misogyny and has been taught to love being r*ped or whatever either. Weird ideology.

they get along well because they're both reactionaries. But I agree with the rest of your analysis about trauma getting projected.

>More like not everybody has the will to power trough complicated theory
It's a matter of both time and willpower. Not one or the other. Single male under-employed introverted bachelor nerds in their early 20s still living with their above average income parents (who are the majority of the imageboard cohort and always will be) tend to overestimate the amount of free time and willpower everyone else has. Go hang out with a single mom your age and see how much of her life is dedicated to working, wiping asses, doing laundry, picking up and dropping off kids at daycare, grocery shopping, washing dishes, cooking, and grooming/bathing/dressing herself and her children to adhere to modern beauty standards, going on dates to find a supportive partner, and going places like bars/clubs/churches for the social scene, and you will realize just how little time some people have to do the activities you deem all proletarians are equally capable of engaging in. Throw in that a lot of people have learning disabilities, physical disabilities, lack of interest in the subject matter, etc and you will see that not everyone can be in the vanguard. And that's OK. The people who read the most theory aren't usually in the vanguard either because they haven't actually joined orgs either or done praxis either.

>The workers that don't read theory will always be dominated and exploited by the ones that do read theory.
That's not how class works. The working class does not exploit itself. At least not in the Marxist sense of the term.

>>527553
Same bullshit excuses as ever. Workers(tm) don't have the time to read but they have the time to scroll social media for hours a day! Ignore that people had even less time a century ago yet could be arsed to read the manifesto at the very least.

Unfortunately I've moved away from their present range and can no longer observe them but I was a big fan of the Black-billed Magpies of western NA. picrel.
Haven't been able to get close enough to positively identify it but I currently have what I assume are mourning doves, 2nd picrel, nesting on top of the pillars on my front porch. They've tried to do this for at least two years now but the ledge they're building on is too narrow to do anything. Last spring I was starting to get distressed by how much futile effort they were putting into it–literally weeks on end of piling up first a bit of mud then sticks only for it to tumble down to the ground–so I took the wooden base out of a box of mandarins and screwed it up there for them. This seemed to scare them off for the rest of that season but this spring they're back and in no time they've got their nest.

I'm wondering about the dialectics of the accumulation of wealth that agriculture enabled that led to that since maybe the earlier civilizations were egalitarian because they operated on a paradigm of trying to avoid scarcity but over time as it became more reliably organized and you had specialization of labour you ended up with wealth disparities and factionalism and private property that led to inheritance disputes and organized warfare becoming a pervasive factor which women were less able to participate in. Property rights wouldn't have been an issue when no one had any valuables in the first place and men are the more "expendable" sex when it comes to conflict, and having more soldiers is generally an advantage when it comes to war so boys would come to be preferred and become dominant in public affairs.

>the agricultural revolution
Did that actually happen?

There was lag because it took a while for the superstructure to adapt to the base and for a proper settled society to take shape. Also it's not about who's stronger or whatever - if that was relevant then male dominance could have and likely would have emerged at any time. Property is the reason for patriarchy, and it comes down to the fact that making babies to inherit your property is a lot more dangerous for women than men. If it's the women who own things and pass them down, then it's going to be a lot more common for there to be crises of inheritance. Something like 1/3 women before modern medicine died in child birth.

If a woman with property dies without kids, there's going to be argument over who inherits. If political power is involved, it's likely to get bloody. For a ruler, producing an heir is also expected which means any female rulers are going to be rolling the dice on whether they have their rule cut short by pregnancy and childbirth complications, possibly before they even have one heir. This means that matrilineal inheritance is just less stable in general, so a strictly patriarchal system has an advantage here. This is probably why you pretty much only see patriarchal rulers in "civilizations" proper - it's just not sustainable to be risking crisis that much. The element of controlling women's sexuality makes sense as a way to ensure the heirs are legitimate (something you don't have to worry about with matrilineal inheritance). The steep social imposition associated with that control implies some kind of tradeoff, like a society where you never have to worry about a political crisis because the ruler died in childbirth.

Interestingly, some of the more recent research on the topic points to agriculture itself being linked to pregnancy and childbirth complications. It's possible then that the cause and effect went something like agriculture -> maternal mortality -> patriarchy. There are some larger and more organized cultures that do follow a matrilinear inheritance method, but they are mainly seen in the Americas and may be subject to different conditions regarding agriculture and nutrition, having significantly different (and often more nutritious) staple foods. There's also speculation that because oPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

So basically men naturally have no interest in knowing if a kid is theirs if it wasn't for private property?

I considered those but I wondered if they were just matrilinear because they were in that earlier stage of civilization where private property had not yet become a dominant factor and would have ended up patriarchal somewhere down the line had they been able to develop further. However like you mentioned they had different staple crops so that would go into alt-hist.
