Now listen, arable land shmarable land, the free market would be able to solve everything if those ***COMMUNISTS*** weren't so inhumane.

2019-05-15 04:15:45 UTC  

Its in our best intentions to set up the free market in these countries. The Dprk, Venezeula Need the free market & Democracy. *communism* is why they have the problems

2019-05-15 04:16:35 UTC  

hehe ready for that helicopter ride tankie

2019-05-15 04:17:23 UTC  

The free market which couldn't survive without slavery in the Congo, people in poor countries forced to work to the point of suicide, and endless wars in the Middle East (and probably South America in the future).

2019-05-15 04:20:13 UTC

2019-05-15 04:20:20 UTC

2019-05-15 04:21:08 UTC  

Does this server have a specific purpose or is it just dudes from /leftypol/ hanging out?

2019-05-15 04:33:07 UTC  

I know this is probably a dumb question but should I just go headfirst into Capital vol 1?

2019-05-15 04:33:15 UTC  

For reference I got my invite from @Firefly for no apparent reason other than I share one or two leftist servers with them

2019-05-15 04:33:26 UTC  

@Cake I'd read Wage Labor and Capital first, if you haven't already

2019-05-15 04:33:55 UTC  

I've been meaning to read it but I've put it off for a while and I don't want to feel like a brainlet when political discussions come up. @A Nondescript Weeaboo Ok I'll start with that.

2019-05-15 04:34:06 UTC  

Have you read anything else from Marx?

2019-05-15 04:34:21 UTC  

I've read the Manifesto and watched a lot of videos of people explaining Marxist theory.

2019-05-15 04:34:39 UTC  

oh yeah well i read memes

2019-05-15 04:34:40 UTC  

But I don't want to be influenced by their biases or anything

2019-05-15 04:34:54 UTC  

Ah, in that case I gotta say hands down the piece I'm gonna shill nonstop is Critique of the Gotha Programme

2019-05-15 04:34:54 UTC  

no i own lenin imperailism and capitalism but i still need to read the manifesto

2019-05-15 04:35:32 UTC  

The "main" part of it is actually only like twenty pages long iirc

2019-05-15 04:35:39 UTC  

Lemme actually get my copy real quick

2019-05-15 04:35:52 UTC  

I found one already

2019-05-15 04:36:56 UTC  

Nah I just meant for reference. Yeah it's a little more than 22 pages for his actual critique, and the rest are appendices.

2019-05-15 04:37:03 UTC  

oh ok

2019-05-15 04:37:23 UTC  

It's amazingly good for, in such few pages, immediately disproving 90% of anti-Communist talking points

2019-05-15 04:37:57 UTC  

>Everyone should be paid the same amount no matter what work they do

2019-05-15 04:38:10 UTC  

yeah that meme argument is dumb as fuck

2019-05-15 04:39:21 UTC  

Then the classic 'personal property includes my shoes and underwear and iphone and video games and hat and couch and car'.

2019-05-15 04:39:45 UTC  

Also, mentioning that there's going to be a period of time where "Communism" (or as most Marxists call it now, Socialism) adopts elements from Capitalism

2019-05-15 04:40:09 UTC  

Yeah, I forget if he talks about personal and private property in Gotha

2019-05-15 04:41:30 UTC  

hello

2019-05-15 04:41:40 UTC
