his analysis of the indian situation is utterly facile, like everything he tries to talk about

he needs to think more about muh feefees?

dot or feather?

no he needs to stop being an idiot

he needs to examine the specific policy changes that led to the shift we have seen in India's economy since the early 90's and their effects

especially as you could provide strong counterexamples

like with Japan growing rapidly under heavy state intervention and experiencing anemic growth after liberalization

or how in Chile poverty skyrocketed and growth was stagnant during Pinochet's administration and after his laissez faire policies were scaled back by the succession of center left governments that came after Chile started growing and poverty started dropping

or how most Russians are poorer today than they were 20 years ago under socialism

but I'm not Japanese or Chilean

how is "dot or feather?" even remotely offensive?

the specific reasons why India has grown is because of a change in trade policy and loosening of burdensome private sector regulations in an economy reliant on the private sector

I'm Anglo Celtic Roman

they still pursue dirigiste policies to a degree

@obrallaghan It's not, it's very funny

I do not want your Commie bullshit

jordan peterson is so desperate to paint post-modernism and modern progressivism as being marxist

um, that's because it is

why do you think that

It is quite literally an application of Marxist theory to social structure

is it because of oppressor/oppressed memes

No, it's because of my experience dealing with progressives

what does "application of Marxist theory to social structure" mean

Replace economics with social structure, replace bourgeoisie with white men, replace proletariat with minorities.

you could do the same thing with early liberals who were an influence on marx's class theory

the core of what you're getting at is that an anlysis of power dynamics = marxism

which is silly, the core of marxism has to do with a materialist interpretation of historical development and the role class struggle plays in this development

no, progressive "manifestos" and other similar writings are eerily similar to "down with the bourgeoisie" type stuff.

i don't think superificial similarities between polemics constitutes these ideologies being the same

I think this gives an accurate description of Liberalism, https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/293022642230001676/434084687103787019/image.jpg

I'm not saying their the same, but they are eerily similar
