I studied this recently, the UK appears to have a 60% ownership rate, untill you examine how they report it.
33% of people outright own a house in the UK, the other % are paying one off.
No sane person would say they owned a house if they had only made 2 700 pound payments on a 250k property, but the UK does for stats.
mfw cuba is magnitudes poorer than its neighbour, the USA but can provide housing and healthcare for everyone in it, and even a surplus of 50k doctors they export to the third world on demand.
there are similarities and it deffo takes some inspo from it; but it also is an interpetation of re-incarnation/meta-physics that tries to incoperate modern understandings of physics into its analysis which makes it a little different; I suppose the difference and what makes it materialist vs Nietzch is that this theory is open and will adapt to new devolopments in physics + our understanding of the edge of the universe, and also that some of its assumptions like 'material circumstances created your concisousness' rather than it being something else.
tis better to have no song than one that makes it difficult to watch; I appreciate you're working in limitations but it would be a good idea to resolve those.
Im not a MWM fanboy, I just couldnt finish the video and get to your likely relevant points because it was grating, id suggest balancing out the audio a bit more next time.
As for MWM it'd be good to remember hes a relatively young guy still figuring stuff out, while I wouldnt advocate for him as a reliable source of knowledge I wouldnt be annoyed if he contributed to the socialist project I was in either, I just wouldnt give him theoritical or directional control because its clear he has some holes in his theory.
The audio was mixed inconsistently where I had to increase the volume to hear what MWM was saying and then get audio jumpscared by the song you put on inbetween, The information between the clips could have used less snark and been presented with the facts/analysis not being over annoying loud music.
this was impossible to watch because all of the audio from MWM was mixed so low and an annoying song in between mixed very loudly, I think the information could have been presented a lot better
but it’s pretty unlikely for the same one to form again.
But it already formed once, why is it unlikely it would happen again?
Its more if you consider infinitie, you get the heat death of the universe then persumably a 'reset' of conditions with another big bang, repeat on an infinite timeline and eventually the same conditions that make you repeat. A materialist look on this would consider this 'copy' of you the same if everything that happened prior to you becoming you happened again.
Marx is difficult I think because of his background and who he was and who he intended his works to be communicated too.
He was purely an academic speaking in academic language writing, in most cases for other academics. Thats why if you read his personal letters, he seems to speak more like a human would, and if you read his publications intended for reading by everyone (like the communist manifesto) he does engage in allegory and imagantive writing to accent his points (...there is a spectre haunting)
Meanwhile Lenin had to be able to communicate with the educated russian class, but also the rank and file of the revolutionary army as well as the Russian serf class; he knew most of his writing had to be understood on the terms of the less educated as a whole class but intended to educate everyone to the level that they could understand him removed from western academic language, to his benefit I think; detatching from liberal academic language is a revolutionary thing in itself.
Materialist philosphy is so cool honestly, I read a great materialist theory on reincarnation recently that argued since our conciousnesses are material things that we can be sure exists, as we pilot one, our conicousnesses themselves where made by material conditions and those conditions will repeat given an infinite amount of time.
Which means we're all trapped in this infinite conciousness loop called reality weeeee.
The fact they didnt stay in Kiev does betray the actual rationale behind Russia's invasion of Ukraine though; they never wanted to or intend to kill Ukraines leadership, they want to intervene in the killings of people in SE-East native Russians following the 2014 conflict, this looks like holding as much of the land in the east as they can.
I know its a meme to say but the invasion in Kiev was likely a bluff to sow confusion.
