are you saying it's the bourgeoisie advocating for their own overthrow or what

2018-05-08 07:27:36 UTC  

``Left Book Club`` my how times have changed

2018-05-08 07:29:03 UTC  

the bourgeoisie don't consciously advocate for their own overthrow, it's just part of their unconscious bias because they have not had to suffer any real hardships

2018-05-08 07:29:50 UTC  

I would argue the modern marxist is the bourgeoisie

2018-05-08 07:29:54 UTC  

where are all of these capitalists who push marxism

2018-05-08 07:29:58 UTC  

and has been in britain for the past century

2018-05-08 07:30:03 UTC  

@NightOwl I would argue the same

2018-05-08 07:30:14 UTC  

based on what

2018-05-08 07:30:50 UTC  

i don't think that like bill gates or jeff bezos or elon musk are marxists

2018-05-08 07:30:57 UTC  

are they middle class?

2018-05-08 07:31:02 UTC  

the link I've just sent

2018-05-08 07:31:04 UTC  

no, they aren't

2018-05-08 07:31:11 UTC  

they're bourgeois

2018-05-08 07:31:26 UTC  

or do you not understand what "bourgeois" means?

2018-05-08 07:31:50 UTC  

they are capitalists

2018-05-08 07:31:54 UTC  

Jordan Peterson talked about this actually

2018-05-08 07:31:57 UTC  

let me find a link

2018-05-08 07:31:58 UTC  

no, they are the middle class

2018-05-08 07:32:19 UTC  

they were under feudalism

2018-05-08 07:32:24 UTC  

under capitalism they became the dominant class

2018-05-08 07:33:42 UTC  

and when I was politically activist I found a lot of middle class people to be marxist

2018-05-08 07:33:48 UTC  

^

2018-05-08 07:33:50 UTC  

you don't find marxist leaning opinions in working class media either

2018-05-08 07:34:00 UTC  

like the sun

2018-05-08 07:34:07 UTC  

you find in papers like the guardian

2018-05-08 07:34:16 UTC  

which working class people do not read

2018-05-08 07:34:18 UTC  

because the upper class have responsibilities and the lower classes actually work @NightOwl

2018-05-08 07:34:26 UTC  

in the west you don't sure

2018-05-08 07:36:42 UTC  

Wait is sargon even on this server?

2018-05-08 07:36:54 UTC  

We're all Sargon

2018-05-08 07:37:00 UTC  

I am Sargon

2018-05-08 07:37:01 UTC  

@Seetor nope

2018-05-08 07:37:27 UTC

2018-05-08 07:37:55 UTC  

what's the point of life?

2018-05-08 07:38:03 UTC  

what's the point of anything?

2018-05-08 07:38:04 UTC  

praising someone like otoya yamaguchi as a liberal seems strange

2018-05-08 07:38:21 UTC  

considering he was a japanese imperialist who despised liberalism
