I'm looking for an excuse to pick it back up, but I haven't found enough intelligence within Marxist dialectics.

@OF-8 You're reading Marx from the enemies of socialism

Usually this means I ought to leave it down.

@OF-8 Secondary sources merchanting you, brother. Read first hand information.

if you're a worker they're putting an ideology against your own interests

Why would not Marx be anti-socialism

Also is zizek and baidou anti socialist?

Marx says that religion is the opium of the people, when people are in misery

They search for Gods

to comfort themselves

The will never not search for gods

and not act

It is not a matter of comfort it is a primal human trait

This is marx' poison pill

@OF-8 If you never read first hand info you never know really. You can't make your own criticism

So Lenin in Marxism and religion says that we need to be patient for objective economic conditions, then I'll get away; but religion doesn't have to influence the party

I didn't say never read

I said looking for an excuse to make a second pass.

@OF-8 Which books did you read?

The Constitution of the USSR allowed religion but not against the aims of socialism, against women rights, that is, against socialist and progressive values

Whatever was in that torrent.

It was a stoned weekend idk. That's how I learn philo

@OF-8 You forgot the name of the book you've read?

I pirate stuff.

So I get a bunch of books at once and plow through em

First pass is "is this bullshit"

So far; bullshit confirmed.

Give me a reason to challenge that assumption.

Lets find out the book name. What was it about?

U want link to torrent?

I'm playing a game here. This isn't about dialectics.

@OF-8 I'm asking you a question

You sure are. 😎👌🏽

@OF-8 Was it about philosophy or economy?

What about this one; does this resolve your dilemma? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital:_Critique_of_Political_Economy

It was several volumes of bullshit.

That period of German language is kinda retarded anyway

@OF-8 what is the organic composition of the capital?

"possibility meeting desire"

Not to quote Marx specifically.
