aye
you have any questions?
you don't need to study something to be able to talk about it
@Big Ounce is there any new information you want to add on a topic?
no
i just wanted to learn more about it
most communists i've met
just tell you to read a book
and feel to enlightened to talk to you
the cunts
@Big Ounce what do you want to learn about?
core ideas
core ideas would probably be class
@Big Ounce materialism is a core idea
and the erosion of said class?
@Big Ounce do you know anything about materialism?
well that would be a natural followup, but do you have any questions?
@Big Ounce in which context?
doesn't matter, no need to talk about materialism
it's just the philosophical background
just explain to me
in a perfect scenario
how would communism play out
that's untellable
you can't do that with anything
no
@Big Ounce how is it important to communist ideas?
dunno
just asking questions for the sake of asking questions
also
please stop @ing me
If you want a modern proposal for a socialist mode of production you should maybe read Cockshott, but that is well beyond the scope of this chat
wanna talk about class?
yes
one (wrong) assumption people have about 'class' is that it is inherently about wealth, when a socialist says 'class', it refers to a person being in one of two groups, working class or ruling class
@Big Ounce materialism means all communist ideas must come from verified factual information.
@Deleted User COME I THINK I FOUND SOME INTELLECTUAL COMMEIS
and the thing that determines what class you are, is your relationship to the means of production
the material interest of someone of working class is to fight against the ruling class, and try to shape society in a way that is beneficial for them
