I found the movie kinda bland when I saw it but I just read the book and it was really good. Not sure why the movie made it kinda hard to care about the characters

So do I but I def know where my comrade is coming from. It practically already is in print in 100,000 different ways that nyt is a bourgeois rag. If this is the headline that convinces someone of class antagonisms, awesome. But yeah this isn’t exactly news
Real headline: gamers design olympic women’s track outfit for nike
Make Aloy into Jessica Alba. More boobas!
A comrade of mine said, “this is why the intercept is going broke. Everybody already knows this shit.”
The idea that Malcolm Gladwell is smart is the funniest thing he said
Thanks for taking the time to put all that together. I agree, with you. My mistake
The tendency in DSA is uncritical support of anti-imperialist state or militant action, especially within the international committee which puts out the vast majority of comms on these topics. The “Robin” in this meme, putting forward any formal critique (a fundamental and essential component of practicing Marxism) is very much the minority position.
As usual this is people who don’t know what they’re talking about, making up an enemy to feel superior to, based on a lack of critical analysis. Common Deprogram L
Cool, now do Afghanistan before the Mujahedeen
I saw it in the dunk tank its the nationalist “socialist” one
No I like dbzer0 they just have some annoying lib users. Its not where I go to have high quality discussions but the memes are fine and a lot of the people are pretty good, some even comrades. I was looking at a post dragging HB, and there was one user who was malding about us and everyone else was like, “nah they’re good”
It’s okay I’m fine
This is a great resource for illustrating different regions of the brain, like the tomgfcerty, the Endecelest racion, Galagacrial region, and Intervaiscailance Raclan. There is even a good illustration of the Olmformforlmery!
Its like a Capri Sun but the straw is the barrel of a tank
Had Sancho [Stirner] understood the fact that within the framework of definite modes of production , which, of course, are not dependent on the will, alien practical forces, which are independent not only of isolated individuals but even of all of them together, always come to stand above people — then he could be fairly indifferent as to whether this fact is preserved in the religious form or distorted in the fancy of the egoist, above whom everything is placed in imagination, in such a way that he places nothing above himself. Sancho would then have descended from the realm of speculation into the realm of reality, from what people fancy to what they actually are, from what they imagine to how they act and are bound to act in definite circumstances. What seems to him a product of thought , he would have understood to be a product of life . He would not then have arrived at the absurdity worthy of him — of explaining the division between personal and general interests by saying that people imagine this division also in a religious way and seem to themselves to be such and such, which is, however, only another word for “imagining”. – KM, The German Ideology
These arguments take material relations and equate them to ideas. As usual it doesn’t matter what nonsense you believe, as long as you don’t believe in communism. As such, the argument that one could equate a material relation with an idea is itself an idealistic, practically religious conceptualization. Basically, Pretending material relations are just ideas. The critiques he makes would be more appropriately turned on his own “religious” idealism.
There’s no criticism that Marx didn’t anticipate, if these sophists bothered to read they would know that instead of trotting out the same tired old lies for the last 150+ years. Its sad.

My book club which is expressly communist, reads Kronstadt, 1921 as part of our curriculum. We read it after three books on the Russian rev. The guy who runs the club and came up with the curriculum is kind of a stickler for historical accuracy, so I trust it is worthwhile.
We will actually be reading it in a couple of weeks so if you want to read it with comrades (or any one else for that matter) here’s our discord link https://discord.com/invite/mCy6zEAQ
