Presumably a massive economic crash. This has obviously never happened, it doesn’t even “fall” consistently over time due to the repeated capture of new markets overseas. Marx is just describing the consequences of “automation” under capitalism, or more generally the outsourcing of human labor to machinery.
I would research “tendency of rate of profit to fall.” No, automation is not socialism, though it is more viable with socialism than capitalism in the long term.
Google “atrocity propaganda” and revise your position of there being “ample evidence of genocide on both sides.” Palestinian genocide is livestreamed every day. Meanwhile, I have not ever, ever heard of “Uighur genocide” from anyone who is more than three steps removed from the CIA.
Pigs could always beat people for wearing Keffiyehs. Of course, that used to be a sign of cop bigotry, not protester bigotry.
Does this man have any actual opinions? He might as well be a skinsuit people fight over the privilege of wearing.
It really is Occupied Korea, isn’t it?
21st century relevance
Bernie and AOC have lost what little relevancy their base once afforded them. About ninety percent of their former supporters have fallen into the Communist camp or are riding with Biden/Harris. The remainder which still attend their rallies boo them over their genocide apologia, and that’s the only thing I’ve heard about either of them in literal years. “Relevance” to liberals literally means being absorbed into the Borg and forgotten. How frightfully bleak.
“Pleased to announce we’re saving you hundreds this year by not paying the gas bill.”
Ultimate Chad maneuver
Absolutely fucking sickening. Xi launch the nukes my people yearn for freedom.
Still waiting on someone to be like “actually the Swastika is an Indian symbol of peace and well-being.” Might work if it weren’t for the eagle right above it lol
Sorry, that was kind of a throwaway line. Of course anarchists do good work, and I know the infighting isn’t so bad in “real life.” Even so, I do think anarchism as a movement is driven by a desire to separate itself from AES, and that doing so entails the problems I’ve described. There’s a reason it’s a mostly western phenomenon. These are people who want to think of themselves as radicals, but have internalized too much propaganda to figure out when and how their media and schools lie to them. Consequently, they are pigeonholed into a movement which has effectively served as controlled opposition for American intelligence for the past sixty years or so.
Anyone can do good work. Even Democrats sometimes do good work. But at some point, we need to get on the same page as to what “opposing the bourgeois state” actually means. It means multipolarity. It means opposing NATO expansion. It means maintaining normal relations with China. There are those who drag their feet on these issues, and it’s not a mystery where that reluctance is coming from.
In the absence of any successful anarchist revolutions, no one can criticize their ideas for being wrong. The “trap of falsifiability” is what they avoid by not associating with AES.
Is pornography still exploitative if no money changes hands? I figure if I want to put my ass on the internet for free, there’s nothing wrong with that, right? I’m not sure how that specific kind of pornography relates to capitalism.
And what about drawn pornography? Are we coming after the furries? lol
The tearful hysteria over Venezuelan thugs is not meant to persuade you. It is an act of self-persuasion. “I’m crying, so this must be serious and real.”
Every fascist roach thinks the people they’re exterminating are doing the same back to them. This is the only way to maintain their self-perception of moral, rational people. They lie to themselves to justify the blood sacrifices their racist idols require.
This isn’t a therapist problem. Alex has a persecution complex, not a disease.
Alex probably doesn’t understand that they are doing this. Every single time they start their routine, shut them down by changing the subject. If you aren’t afraid, they might start to wonder why they are afraid.
