reading some of his other economic texts, like wage labor and capital and probably hegel's the philosophy of history is good

Not sure, got it from the library.

tell me

Of course

every man a king

you read a bad translation

read the ford translation @AlaJt

@mcstubbs Yeah, as well as "Value, Price and Profit".

i can dm you it

@mcstubbs I'm pretty sure it has something like that, introductory to the dialectic.

I also have wage-labour and capital and value-price and profit.

gonna send you a few pdfs also you might wanna read meinkampf ford or stalag translation @AlaJt

Marx is wrong when Adam smith agreed with concepts like labour theory of value. Marx is based in material reality smh.

yeah, but it's also good to have some other texts, because marx, although he was a good thinker, was an atrocious writer

@Mitch Is it even worth to read at this point?

yeah

you read a bad translation

I hate reading books on a computer or virtual platform.

the ones in the library are jewd as fuck

But tbh, if you don't have a background in Western Philosophy, particularly German Idealism, you should look into secondary literature first before diving into Hegel directly.

and very dishonest plus they dont give background on some refrences

@🌼Kalina🌹🌸🌹Zay🌹🌸🌹Scott🌼 Haven't got around to finishing Wealth Of Nations

@Mitch I see.

oh yeah, and kant.

but i'm a kant fanboy so i'm biased

No I agree with you.

@WildRooHuntingTutorials same, but i can't get a lot of books in paper

The content of his writings has a well-deserved reputation as dense and formidable, it doesn't help that he wasn't a very good writer. And I say that with love and respect lmao.

the ones i want, anyway

Adam Smith is a critic of capitalism but not a socialist because the concept existed after him :-( Though the Adam Smith Institute is a piss taker

He was a central figure in modern philosophy.

oh yeah, he was an atrocious writer

but man, that little prussian hobgoblin was a smartie

im a communist now

@mcstubbs He really was.

Funny how Fascists/Nat-Soc agree with each other on a lot of issues but violently defend other political, economic and social thought.

Truly a genius whose thought was ahead of its time, like Marx.

@🌼Kalina🌹🌸🌹Zay🌹🌸🌹Scott🌼 That's so true. The Adam Smith Institute is such a joke lol.

mfw was arguing with some conservacuck who tried to tell me Adam Smith was an uber libertarian

what a nerd

i have a tiny adam smith bust in my room, but i am by no means a fan of the man
