thats really about the extent we have heard and seen

2018-08-05 12:13:25 UTC  

The narrative that I've heard is that police were fairly competent at keeping the demonstrators separate, the lefties got agitated that they weren't able to stop the righties and started throwing shit at cops. Cops weren't going to take any shit and started clearing out the lefties. By this point people were so overwhelmed by the heat that they lost most of their willingness to fight and just went home.

in other words, pussies

2018-08-05 12:17:38 UTC  

Seen a couple of news flashes about "clashes between Antifascist protesters and police" today but I dunno how credible they are

2018-08-05 12:22:57 UTC  

well its as creditable as the very chat we are in right now

2018-08-05 12:41:22 UTC  

Maybe they should call them what they are

2018-08-05 12:41:25 UTC  

pro communists

2018-08-05 12:44:49 UTC  

Dude I'm a Commie and I refuse to be compared to those larping Trotskyites

2018-08-05 12:49:30 UTC  

Pffft, kommunists are mad, Real marxism is the way to go

2018-08-05 12:49:41 UTC  

Nah, just trolling

2018-08-05 13:48:10 UTC  

You are pro commie, that does not make you antifa. Im pro equal rights, that does not make me a feminist.

2018-08-05 13:48:51 UTC  

I think what Marx really wanted was complete decentralisation, at least that is how he talks in his literature

2018-08-05 13:49:17 UTC  

I dont think anyone can have any claim as to what he really wanted.

2018-08-05 13:49:33 UTC  

You know, like who owns linux? Nobody, you could say that the community that uses it owns it

2018-08-05 13:49:47 UTC  

He only has that book and has nothing behind him besides being a neckbeard philosopher with a big idea.

2018-08-05 13:50:03 UTC  

But back in Marxs time everyone either worked on or used everything that was produced

2018-08-05 13:50:03 UTC  

That is not to say that he has no value intrinsicly.

2018-08-05 13:50:25 UTC  

What do you mean "that book"?

2018-08-05 13:51:29 UTC  

He wrote many books, his most famous books "Das Kapital" (because it has 4 volumes that are each at least 500 pages) were his most famous

2018-08-05 13:51:42 UTC  

And how many people are aware of that?

2018-08-05 13:51:54 UTC  

Im only pointing out hes famous for "that one book"

2018-08-05 13:52:45 UTC  

Why do you ask? Because authority and employers worked to censor, later prevent people from getting them, later it was big news when the poor censored guy released a new book

2018-08-05 13:52:54 UTC  

Well

2018-08-05 13:53:12 UTC  

That is sad, because obviously they haven't read that book then

2018-08-05 13:53:41 UTC  

How many commies do you think actually read that stuff? Probably around the same proportion of christians who read the bible.

2018-08-05 13:54:02 UTC  

It literally starts with "I will not go through x in this book series because I have already done that countless of times and in many of my previous books"

2018-08-05 13:54:07 UTC  

Yes

2018-08-05 13:54:11 UTC  

I agree on that

2018-08-05 13:54:32 UTC  

Its the same really, nobody wants the effort to go through that, but they think they know enough to make everyone think they are the authority on that subject

2018-08-05 13:54:59 UTC  

I will always point out inaccuracies people quote from the bible. And I actually did read the bible. Not these days, its been years

2018-08-05 13:55:01 UTC  

From almost completing the first volume of "Das Kapital", I can assure you he has nothing against the free market

2018-08-05 13:55:59 UTC  

Well, at least not in the first volume, he does mention the free market but only in how it actually fixes value on products and is self regulating

2018-08-05 13:56:13 UTC  

My issue isnt with him. Its the selective memory about what he purports to belive.

2018-08-05 13:56:29 UTC  

What does purports mean?

2018-08-05 13:56:29 UTC  

People know the commie manifesto, not the kapita

2018-08-05 13:56:39 UTC  

Omfg... I hate that book

2018-08-05 13:56:46 UTC  

Worst. Summary. Ever

2018-08-05 13:56:50 UTC  

If someone writes something, I cant say that he beleives that. Im not him.

2018-08-05 13:57:06 UTC  

Same I can say he lies, I am not him. He might, he might not.

2018-08-05 13:57:13 UTC  

What is important is the conclusion people get from it.

2018-08-05 13:57:32 UTC  

Not what the author meant specifically when he wrote that passage at that moment.
