It’s fine

Tbh I just linked it because they agree with what you said about the bell curve.

True, I’ve listened to the audiobook. I really like being able to explain people’s actions and beliefs by material factors.

Fair enough. I had an insane teacher that forced everyone to take some personality test and talked about how important it was for her to work with one of the numbers. Then she never mentioned it again after a couple weeks.

Yeah, idk about the nazi stuff. Wasn’t Freud a Jew? Anyway, I know some people here have hot takes against MBTI, but I think it’s a little overblown. I realize that if I want to look into the Marxist take on psychoanalysis I should look at Althusser.

Bro, we talked about this. Think of organization of people like organizing a workspace or document. It makes it easier to get stuff done. Think of “an organization” as in a charity or group for self governance. Organization for communism means bringing people together, directing resources to provide for them, and using mass mobilization to win power. The goal is to create a government in waiting like the Soviets that can take over.

I do it every day, maybe it’s an OCD thing. I want to live by stoic virtues and revolutionary morality. Everyday I write in my journal and reflect on if I’m living up to my standards. Did I do anything regrettable, cowardly, liberal (in mao’s sense), and so on. Then I resolve to act differently in the future and live how I want to in the moment. It works.

Idk, I’m not an expert, just giving some basic explanation for the relation of Social Democracy and Communism.

Social Democracy is what all the socialists called themselves. Then in WWI the SocDems betrayed the international proletariat and supported their own states’ armies, so Lenin switched to calling his people communists like Marx intended. Also the German SPD used to be one of the more progressive parties, but they were revisionist and the principled communists split and led a revolution, but were defeated by the SPD making way for Hitler.

What particularly got them removed? What alleged misinformation?

I clicked the link. That doesn’t clear up much.

Context? (Who is this, what’s the subs stance, what did they say)

Idk, it really makes it sound like there’s an outside anti-thesis that comes in to oppose and already in-itself thesis.

I think I agree. You shouldn’t necessarily be looking for the Fichtean thesis and antithesis or whatever in every single situation. Just recognize that there are contradictions and interconnections and change is a necessity.

It’s not that the universe has the idea of dialectics built in, it’s that things are processes with contradictions. Dialectics is the view that recognizes this truth.

I think you are interpreting me as saying gravity is itself a process. I do not mean that, just that gravity describes the contradictions that effect the way movement occurs.

I’m not an expert on the topic, but I listened to this, and someone who works in agriculture elaborated how China uses some of his discoveries today. How Lysenko was the guy that got people planting potato eyes instead of the whole potato etc.

Even if gravity is a fixed law, it is still dialectical. All things must change doesn’t mean that the fact that all things change changes. Idk.

The Dialectical Biologist is pretty great, but keep in mind it’s a little outdated, and they didn’t know Lysenko was vindicated.

The sole conclusion to be drawn from the opinion of the marxists that Marx’s theory is an objective truth is that by following the path of Marxist theory we shall draw closer and closer to objective truth without ever exhausting it; but by following any other path we shall arrive at nothing but confusion and lies.
