One issue I have with many leftist podcasts Iâve found is that theyâre more like round-table talk shows than educative/entertainment.
? Iâve found shows like TurnLeftist and Trash Future rather informative and entertainment. The Deprogram which is not affiliated with hexbear is very educational, diving into different subjects each episode.
Iâll check out the podcast you mention.
If First Thought got big enough it could serve the purpose you mention.
That just sounds like using organizing to get friends (not a bad thing). Unless you mean the social club is to be around people to convince them more, and you intend to radicalize that group from the inside.
Most people arenât recent settlers who commit genocide on still existing people. It would be one thing if Palestinians or First Nations people were gone, but they arenât, and they could still get their land back. Otherwise I donât know what youâre pointing to. We oppose all settler-colonialism, not all exploration or bloodshed in the same way. We seek to dismantle the worst and least historically based regimes.
It might be either because youâre used to ânormalâ shoes and your feet werenât ready for the change, concrete sucks, or there might have been some stretch that couldâve helped. Or youâre not great at walking.
Comrades, what do you think of barefoot shoes? I was convinced for it a while ago by this video. Obviously not the biggest issue, but if youâve got the money to spare it seems worth it, and in socialist society theyâd hopefully be more accessible.
Thereâs nothing to call him out on. All that you dronie losers say is âhow dare you say a country that I donât like is good with sources, youâre not allowed to do that!â
Does it matter that social networks already existed before Facebook? It that online resellers existed before Amazon?
I donât think so? They may not have been the first but they did outcompete other similar companies at the start.
I suppose that might be the point, that industrial and financial capital are married together. But thatâs not whatâs invoked by saying that someone starts one way and becomes something else later.
Amazon is a marriage of both in itself, I think.
Yes, this quote uses the word âfeudalismâ but taken in itself, this quote does not say to me that the author thinks that capitalism is regressing back towards feudalism-proper. It says to me that the author (Hudson?) thinks that imperialists are as decadent and dastardly as feudal lords. Itâs a metaphor. The context may contradict that interpretation, of course, and the sentence itself could be read literally.
I canât answer all your questions, but it seems Dayâs point is that feudalistic rents within capitalism are not particularly different than regular profits. The most important point is that Industrial capitalism is in no way better for average people than financialized capitalism, if there is such a distinction.
Again, Iâve not recently (maybe at all) read the texts in question, which may use longer quotes, but quoting one sentence from Hudson without the surrounding text does not do what Lenin is talking about here.
A very good point, I hope he will address Hudsonâs main argument more directly in the full RS piece. I wonder why he didnât quote commenters from here at length.
