It's crucial? Workers owning the means of production isn't the same as the state owning the means of production. In the former you basically have syndicalist anarchy, while in the latter you have concentrated top down approach towards economics

2020-03-13 06:58:42 UTC  

If you think its meaningless you haven't read any of the marxist literature

2020-03-13 06:58:47 UTC  

Have you read das kapital?

2020-03-13 06:59:00 UTC  

At least the first volume?

2020-03-13 06:59:05 UTC  

Of course you haven't.

2020-03-13 06:59:06 UTC  

Parts of it. Until I realized he didn't even justify his central premises

2020-03-13 06:59:29 UTC  

Whether or not he justified them is irrelevant to whether or not you can understand his general conception without sperging and redefining it

2020-03-13 07:00:01 UTC  

I only need to understand it enough to know what commies are talking about. I don't need to know every little definition

2020-03-13 07:00:14 UTC  

Not the least because I simply don't care about them. Why should I?

2020-03-13 07:00:50 UTC  

You wasted what, a full week of your life to reading three volumes of this shite?

2020-03-13 07:01:05 UTC  

Good for your ego, I suppose

2020-03-13 07:01:05 UTC  

Imagine being this braindead

2020-03-13 07:01:07 UTC  

fucking hell

2020-03-13 07:01:14 UTC  

"Look mom! I read Das Kapital!"

2020-03-13 07:01:38 UTC  

"Yeah guys, why the heck should i care about literally understanding their crucial ideas prior to trying to dunk on them"

2020-03-13 07:02:08 UTC  

Did I say I don't understand them?

2020-03-13 07:02:19 UTC  

I understand them better than you do, and better than they do

2020-03-13 07:02:24 UTC  

You don't have to say everything in order for me to conclude that

2020-03-13 07:02:26 UTC  

No lmao

2020-03-13 07:02:28 UTC  

You understand them on their terms

2020-03-13 07:02:34 UTC  

You think ussr was communist

2020-03-13 07:02:35 UTC  

Guess what? Their terms are shit

2020-03-13 07:02:38 UTC  

LOOOL

2020-03-13 07:02:50 UTC  

I don't care if it's communist or socialist or dreamlandist

2020-03-13 07:03:01 UTC  

That's how ideologies ARE understood you stupid shit, you understand an ideology from the perspective of those who agree with it

2020-03-13 07:03:20 UTC  

Instead of getting your understanding from armchair neo liberals who misrepresent it

2020-03-13 07:04:06 UTC  

And yet you defined liberalism in your own terms

2020-03-13 07:04:27 UTC  

Not even you take your own standards serious

2020-03-13 07:04:41 UTC  

No

2020-03-13 07:04:50 UTC  

When did i provide my definition of liberalism?

2020-03-13 07:04:52 UTC  

Quote me?

2020-03-13 07:05:02 UTC  

Oh, right

2020-03-13 07:05:12 UTC  

You just defended the definition of AntiLiberal

2020-03-13 07:05:39 UTC  

I didn't defend his definition. I defended the claim that liberalism enforces individualism

2020-03-13 07:05:40 UTC  

Is libertarianism liberalism?

2020-03-13 07:05:50 UTC  

Depends which forms

2020-03-13 07:06:20 UTC  

I'd ask you to explain but I don't really care

2020-03-13 07:06:56 UTC  

Certain forms of libertarianism aren't liberal, such as left wing libertarianism, which reject basic liberal principles such as property rights

2020-03-13 07:07:14 UTC  

Liberalism is libertarian in its nature, though

2020-03-13 07:07:22 UTC  

Cool

2020-03-13 07:07:30 UTC  

Did I ask you for your opinion?
