>>8881866
He wrote about a lot of things and his ideas on alienation in capitalism are very interesting and they inspire a lot of literature.

Marx was very good at describing culture and the ways we form ideas. I think Orwell and Deborg did a good job at expanding on this idea of alienation from fellow humans in a capitalist or fascist society.

>>8882106
What's slobbish about cuffed jeans? It takes more effort than not cuffing them.

>>8882119
because its for people who cant be bothered to find jeans that fit

>>8882132
I cuff my jeans at home because I don't want them to touch my slippers. It's a convenience thing like tucking you shirt in so it doesn't flap around.

newsflash: your jeans dont fit

>>8882182
They do fit. If I would buy shorter ones, they wouldn't reach down to my shoes when I'm outside. Fitting jeans cover the shoes a little, like this. I just don't like this when I'm in my slippers.

Open borders is a capitalist-liberal position, not a Marxist one you doofus. And literally everyone except fascists hates fascists.

>>8883112
>implying commies use open borders to smash current the paradigm you seem to think you can't also do these things other libtards do

Fascism isn't even well defined and is different in different places it is tried. the only reason it is hated so much is because fascism is general openly anti semitic

>>8882088
Of course they're reds. Look how they're fucking dressed. You think normal people dress like that? You think right wingers do?

>>8881871
Fun fact: the only reason Dal Kapital made it past the Russian censors is because they legitimately thought it was so boring that no one would ever read it.

>wearing jeans

Uncomfortable and lead to swamp crotch if you're in a humid environment.

>>8883112
Fascism is hated only by neo-liberal capitalists who've flooded the white countries where white fascisti reside with non-white cheap labour for muh GDP

And commies who play the reactionary, useful idiot role for porkie by organizing antifa crackdens, basically the two worst ideologies known to man share the same premises and agree fascism is a threat to both

Everyone else doesn't care and mouths the empty words of piety of the incumbent ideology in power

open borders and cultural homogenisation are the preserve of the bourgeouise - capitalism is a system which forces all others to take upon its image

>Fascism is hated only by neo-liberal capitalists who've flooded the white countries where white fascisti reside with non-white cheap labour for muh GDP
Fascism is hated by those who believe in democracy as an important principle in life and society.

>>8884478

its not just democracy but the general idea of individual freedom

>>8884436
[Left] libertarians are fine with "open borders" or no borders at all, but guess what human nature would be inclined to do.

They'd stay put in their locations. No wars of economic hardships pushing them around in large numbers. They normally like family and familiar culture and language.
Erasing the borderlines would have this seemingly counter intuitive effect.

>>8884481
Democratic institutions maximize individual freedom. Fascism is the abandonment of individual freedom in favor of an ideal.

Lefties want Globalism on account of their wet dream - that is, a multiracial/multicultural world (which weirdly doesn't include whites or only includes mongrelized whites) which they believe will necessarily lead to peace. In this respect it is basically a faith.

Righties want Globalism on account of their wet dream - that is, a capitalist world of completely interchangeable consumers/producers with none of the differences they currently experience (race/culture/etc). In the absence of these differences, a 'one world market' becomes ever more inevitable, in which the entire planet essentially has the same tastes/skills/etc.

There are people on the right and the left who oppose Globalism - namely, those who know better.

>>8884511

When you make posts that imply democracy/individual freedom/etc are essentially "good" - and moreover, that their "goodness" is simply a given, then don't expect anything more than snide distancing.

>>8884511
Are you?
So riots are held by assorted black bloc types every time the worldbank holds a meeting, or when there are wide union resistance to free trade agreements or against the international movement of labour, it is not lefties fighting against globalism and internationalism?

>>8884536
Goodness is a spook. All that exists is the ego. Democracy relies on individuals expressing the desires of their egos to form consensus on group decisions, as groups are often the easiest way to achieve our goals. Fascism is the suppression of the ego in service of some abstract idea, a spook.

>>8884566
when did i call you a leftist faggot?

>>8884561

i literally have a copy of the manifesto in front of me and it repeatedly and explicitly explains that capitalism is driven by open borders and the conquest of new markets, and that national identities and local cultures are destroyed by class identities and class cultures under capitalism

they want the workers of all countries to simultaneously rebel to completely exterminate capitalism becausw capitalism grows back like cancer, they dont necessarily want the to all unite permanently as a societal and social bloc

but youre just a shitposter, i know you wont bother actually reading the counterarguments to your "muh fee-fees" position

Globalism is achieved through world-wide MARKET INTEGRATION. That is its mechanism.

I'm leftist. Not a liberal. True there are plenty of people who think being a liberal capitalist can be considered leftist, but they are soooo middle ground. "progressive liberals" are simply social democrats who like tiny bits of socialism. Are full socialists or Trotskyists also liberals in your pea-brain?
Well, I'm not even that. I'm anarchist. That a liberal to you too? Fuck your diseased malfunctioning brain.

>>8884561
Workers of the world unite to tear down the capitalists, so that we can go about our lives ruling ourselves. No gods, no masters.
"Globalism" is about markets and the cash flow the wealthy will get off our labour.

>>8884611

>globalization
>The worldwide movement toward economic, financial, trade, and communications integration.
Globalization implies the opening of local and nationalistic perspectives to a broader outlook of an interconnected and interdependent world with free transfer of capital, goods, and services across national frontiers. However, it does not include unhindered movement of labor and, as suggested by some economists, may hurt smaller or fragile economies if applied indiscriminately.

Marx would be rolling in his grave if he could see what people do with his work

Historical Materialism is a theory that privileges the economic in explanation of non-economic phenomena. It is sometimes known as the materialist conception of history or the economic interpretation of history.

"This doctrine is often called 'historical materialism,' or the 'materialistic interpretation of history.' Such terms are, however, lacking in precision. If by materialism is meant the tracing of all changes to material causes, the biological view of history is also materialistic. Again, the theory which ascribes all changes in society to the influence of climate or to the character of the fauna and flora is materialistic, and yet has little in common with the doctrine here discussed. The doctrine we have to deal with is not only materialistic, but also economic in character; and the better phrase is not the 'materialistic interpretation,' but the 'economic interpretation' of history."

Marx himself took care to indicate that he was only proposing a guideline to historical research, and was not providing any substantive "theory of history" or "grand philosophy of history", let alone a "master-key to history". Numerous times, he and Engels expressed irritation with dilettante academics who sought to knock up their skimpy historical knowledge as quickly as possible into some grand theoretical system that would explain "everything" about history.

Firstly, there is metaphysical or philosophical materialism, in which matter-in-motion is considered primary and thought about matter-in-motion, or thought about abstractions, secondary.

Secondly, there is the notion that economic processes form the material base of society upon which institutions and ideas rest and from which they derive. While the economy is the base structure of society, it does not follow that everything in history is determined by the economy, just as every feature of a house is not determined by its foundations. Thus, there is the idea that in the capitalist mode of production the behavior of actors in the market economy (means of production, distribution and exchange, the relations of production) plays the major role in configuring society.

As Marx puts it, "a coherence arises in human history" because each generation inherits the productive forces developed previously and in turn further develops them before passing them on to the next generation. Further, this coherence increasingly involves more of humanity the more the productive forces develop and expand to bind people together in production and exchange.

This understanding counters the notion that human history is simply a series of accidents, either without any underlying cause or caused by supernatural beings or forces exerting their will on society. This posits that history is made as a result of struggle between different social classes rooted in the underlying economic base.

>>8884820
Yes, one that was created by western imperialist societies. So, do you agree capitalism is globalist, not the left?

>>8884821
Writers who identify with historical materialism usually postulate that society has moved through a number of types or modes of production. That is, the character of the production relations is determined by the character of the productive forces; these could be the simple tools and instruments of early human existence, or the more developed machinery and technology of present age. The main modes of production Marx identified generally include primitive communism or tribal society (a prehistoric stage), ancient society, feudalism, and capitalism. In each of these social stages, people interact with nature and produce their living in different ways. Any surplus from that production is allotted in different ways. Ancient society was based on a ruling class of slave owners and a class of slaves; feudalism was based on landowners and serfs; and capitalism based on the capitalist class and the working class. The capitalist class privately owns the means of production, distribution and exchange (e.g., factories, mines, shops and banks) while the working class live by exchanging their socialized labor with the capitalist class for wages.

Marx identified the production relations of society (arising on the basis of given productive forces) as the economic base of society. He also explained that on the foundation of the economic base there arise certain political institutions, laws, customs, culture, etc., and ideas, ways of thinking, morality, etc. These constituted the political/ideological superstructure of society. This superstructure not only has its origin in the economic base, but its features also ultimately correspond to the character and development of that economic base, i.e. the way people organize society is determined by the economic base and the relations that arise from its mode of production.

Society moves from stage to stage when the dominant class is displaced by a new emerging class, by overthrowing the "political shell" that enforces the old relations of production no longer corresponding to the new productive forces. This takes place in the superstructure of society, the political arena in the form of revolution, whereby the underclass "liberates" the productive forces with new relations of production, and social relations, corresponding to it.

>>8884842
>if you pinpoint the root of every problem to class struggle

You are interpreting "class" in a narrow sense. If we use Marx's framework to analyze historical civilizations, and we consider Darwin, in order for human beings to survive and continue existence from generation to generation, it is necessary for them to produce and reproduce the material requirements of life.

Looking at the causes for Neolithic revolution, the initial force is believed to be a population exceeding the limits of its environment, and subsequently turning to agriculture to produce vast quantities of food. A key development here is not only the concept of "property" in farm land, but the development of granaries to store excess product. This resulted in trading and the division of labor, and eventually, a "merchant" class who facilitated trading. These merchants eventually become the key-holders of the "means of production" of the farmers.

It's an analysis of how society develops. The ways in which these initial structures form consequently shape the rest of the societal structure; how the trading is conducted, the neighboring societies, the geography/access to trade routes. All of this determines historical evolution and it snowballs steadily becoming more complex over time, the major changes in structure happen when means of production are usurped. (conquered by neighbors, famine and plague, or revolution post-famine)

>>8884842
Marx suggested a final step out of the capitalist stage is possible without devolving into authoritarianism, and it could be possible to transcend class-based conflict.
Ultimately he was only attempting to predict the future. But either way in the prediction of the future, one shall first know of the past (i.e. the establishment of capitalism and the transitional part of feudalism), and he stressed the importance of analyzing history through science

I think the approach to his work as a method of observation, and not as an ultimate answer to our praxis is the right way to view it.

Many people think we can never truly transcend class based struggle, just based on the impossible nature of perfect distribution, there will always be haves and have nots.

Capitalism is designed for a class system, some wealthy, a bit more upper-middle class and so on till you find the majority who live in poverty despite working the hardest.
Famines come and go, but capitalism has been a state of permanent poverty for most of the world.

Only canonized in the west in the 19th century, Saint Nicholas took on an image similar to Marx himself. The Santa myth also seems to be a bit of an atheist trainer too. Your parents lie about Santa, why do you think you can trust them about Jesus? Then there's the red hat, not only is that the socialist's colour, their predecessors, the Jacobins wore the same "liberty cap" (fashioned about the Phrygian cap of ancient Turkey. The very place the real Nicholas lived) Hidden symbols, anon. I don't think it's all coincidence.

>S: Birthdays? Christmas? Hanging out with friends?
>X: You win socrates
>S: I am not finished yet. Don't end the fun too soon.
>S: When you crave delicious sweets. Are you eternally satisfied after indulgence?
>S: When you have exhausted a game. Do you go find another game to play? Or are you satisfied for life after one game?
>S: Therefore the pursuit of pleasure you are constantly striving for under the delusion that it would lead to a happy life is futile. For it is an infinite journey. And harms the soul for eventually the craving would get so big it would be impossible to satisfy in the moment. Even if you were the king of the known world!
X:You speak too much. But you have convinced me. But logic won't fix what I feel. I want what I don't have.
S: And you will always want what you don't have my dear friend.
