Pener Kropoopkin posted:The labor strike episode was a baseball bat to the face if you know what you're looking for because it all maps perfectly to a Marxist analysis of capitalism. Traditional magic is capital accumulated through say, feudalism, which the magical servants need to survive while the witches command the vast bulk of it just to have literal power. The crisis is only temporarily resolved by introducing a new mode of production for magic represented by the digital magic form, which is the industrialized capitalism that can eventually supplant traditional forms of power. That both forms are also revealed to literally exploit the surplus magical value of the masses makes it map to Marxism 1::1. in a series of mostly good episodes, this was easily the best one for me.

Dreddout posted:Uhh buddy a large part of why yugoslavia fell apart so spectacularly was all it's international debt that was necessitated by it's participation in the global market entire yugoslavia had $19b external debt in 1991. for comparison, the tiniest ex-yu country slovenia today has 42b euros external debt and it's somehow not falling apart

BrutalistMcDonalds posted:there's a kind of bizarre notion developing among these reformist DSA types that the left is not liberal so therefore it should reject social liberalism, rather than recognizing capitalism's total inability to live up to liberalism's promises. these people are treacherous and should not be trusted. IMO, those are just fash with a different coat of paint. "socialism and rights for our guys, gently caress others" is literally benito's jam. what i'm saying is, lol if you aren't socially liberal, fiscally posadist. Pener Kropoopkin posted:Liberalism can't even live up to its own promises teleologically. liberals got dragged kicking and screaming into the equal rights discourse, but also now people with money get equaler rights, but when you bring this up, they unironically quote animal farm at you, it owns. oh, also, corporations are people somehow

yeah no, it's way too late for that what could *maybe* save us is a giant output in renewable/nukular energy sources to run the climate control in dome cities we'll need to survive post 2060, but nope we're doing the opposite instead lmfao good news tho, the solution that would have worked 40 years ago is finally being considered!

gradenko_2000 posted:I don't... how do people maneuver themselves into this kind of position? dios mio *gestures a cross* a live tankie Mr. Lobe posted:Has Sanders made any political moves towards international reparations of any kind in the past? If not, this seems like an optimistic assumption on top of an optimistic assumption (that he could become prez) "We would also listen to the voices of Venezuelan activists themselves who warn against broad sanctions, such as the Trump administration’s oil sanctions, that mainly punish the people, not the government. My administration would not be in the business of regime change. The United States has a long history of inappropriately intervening in Latin American countries; we must not go down that road again." anyway, the take "morales got couped because he was too nice" is right next to "well, why do you dress that way then??", it's not only dumb, it's also incredibly toxic. the takeaway shouldn't be "wow, what a bitch he shoulda consolidated power while he had a chance", it should be "first, we must kill all the nazis without pity or remorse, *then* we'll see if brutality/authoritarianism/<whatever> is even required anymore"

Atrocious Joe posted:how can you complain about tankies and then advocate preemptive mass killing as a solution to reactionaries. the account you're mocking is wrong and some dumb maoist, but in general the term tankie is applied to socialists who defend the use of violence to protect revolutionary movements and states. because there's reactionaries, and there's nazis. if you're saying killing nazis is bad, i have incredibly bad news for you.

the 3-5 million figures quoted often include "people who haven't been born due to famine" or some amazing galaxy brained bullshit like that nearly 2 loving million people died, why inflate it? isn't that terrible enough? i guess "almost twice the potato famine" doesn't sound bad enough or some poo poo
