I remember the day, at the age of 15, my 36 year old, alcoholic, former-actor neighbor explained to me the process of dialectical materialism and the pendulum of progress. I truly love being smart.
The pendulum of progress isn't even compatible with dialectical materialism, it's just a cope for conservatives to think eventually their "traditionalism" will come back.

I miss the hipsters. They just wanted to ride tenspeeds and drink craft beer. Real chill atmosphere usually, and surprisingly good food. (I'm from Cleveland so it was either hipster or gangster
I was rewatching old MDE Brooklyn videos recently, and while these people were obnoxiously pretentious, they were harmless. Now the two chill cyclists from one of the videos who owned a bar on Long Island would probably split your head open with a bike lock for being a class reductionist.
I don't know if this was intentional, but the book at 1:02 says at the bottom "shortened version of the first volume", which would be fitting for the type of people they are talking about--not actually reading the stuff
Marx would have HATED that! He fought with the French publishers of Capital Vol.1 because they wanted to release the book as a "series" of discrete chapters, prompting hm to write a second preface to explain why that would be stupid.
I started listening to the audio book, and I mean it's, the first 30 minutes is just endless sourcing to critics of him. Karl Marx on Twitter would have been fun. I don't think everyone needs to read it lol. Just really bored in a factory lol
Bro, I love Karl Marx. He takes my girlfriend out on dates so I don’t have to deal with her and finally have the possibility to read his sick ass manifesto.

Not possible. Leftists are leftists because of deeply seeded feelings of inferiority, and over-socialization. The leftist will never act in the interest of what he or she claims to support, because the leftist belief system is nothing more than a front to combat those feelings of inferiority and guilt. At least, that's what Ted Kaczynski thought; and he was always a really level headed guy.
Pokemon Snap is an extremely chill game, underrated, remember going to Blockbuster with your game cartridge to get your pictures printed as stickers???
Wait, that was a feature? I strongly remember renting that game and playing, can probably draw the entire first level along with the pokemon in it, but never ever did I know about the stickers
Thought I was the only one noticing the Urban Demographic all had wireless headsets for their phones, the women were particular to those necklace models.

Echem Christman. I enjoy his articulation of certain histories but god damn he is an irritating human being. Stop singing ffs. Also nothing says socialism more than blindly agreeing with elite media when the chips are down.
All seriousness, it's not bad to read that. You should know as much as you can about as much as you can. And tbh in theory communism isn't evil.. It just always ends up evil when they try to execute it
And there is a flaw with capitalism in the endgame where a few people get it all(same as communism) but that doesn't mean capitalism is bad, for the most part it works great. We just need to find a way to stop 1% from going too hard, without infringement of rights or ability to earn
@@Turtleproofwhy do you expect other nations to just roll over and not further their strategic and economic interests? In the entirety of human history, geopolitics has never worked that way.
Even theoretically communism is impossible. Look into the calculation problem by ludwig von mises. And, it is also, in my opinion, evil. In a "pure democracy" the majority will be able to enact whatever they please onto the minority and wont be stopped and in the marxist theory, this is acceptable. Nobody should have any unconsented authority over another
