no it isn't.

I agree. Technology (especially at the extraordinarily powerful level we have it at today) should be rationalised. This is why I don't understand the love for the Matrix. Or at least, I love it myself, but I would like to reverse the roles so that Neo is the good guy, dictatorial...

My persistent and dare I say heroic and valiant efforts to rescue you from the torturous clutches of the biscetti were all in vein. You want to engage in carnal pleasures with the aforementioned biscetti, that much is now axiomatic to all minds troubled by your slovenly apathy. You are a deeply...

@luka cancelled mantronix by hating Autechre. I told him that he can't decide to like the father but hate the son, but he is an eclecticist westoid with no ability to think in centuries.

This is an argument for communism in the long durée though, not against it. precisely because you can't make an argument against it, at least not with this criterion. Lenin was always clear that where the struggle is between small capital and big capital, big capital and big globalised markets...

for the peasants of yesteryear it's somewhat different, in that the increase of agricultural productivity decreases the rent of agricultural produce, and allows more of the peasant to take to market what he has produced with her tools. A worker has no such liberty or autonomy precisely because...

exactly, and now it is worth so little that it can't even be taken to the marketplace as productive capital. this is the real meaning of Marx's immiseration thesis. Workers living standards only increase by way of junk that rapidly loses its value.

if by complete contingency you mean chance, it is a contradiction in terms, it is like speaking of complete randomness. Intellectuals may be cowards, but anti-intellectuals are no less cowardly, even more so as they pledge their undying fealty to refuting intellectuals rather than reversing...

I wouldn't be foolish enough to affix a date to the proletarian conquest of power. In terms of the preconditions for global communism, they are already emergent. This was different to 1925, as you would know if you delved into the history of the politbureau.

no, I meant WW III/brexit being ultrabremain.

lads, get off the internet.

this gets close, granted. full on italian Mozzarella. still, got to admire it's heartfelt naivete. Obviously in the hands of DJ Rap and Nookie it is revelatory.

nah, both will undergo a left liberal phase as industries are restructured and exploitation is improved upon (obviously I can't predict this with fine-grained detail) and then probably shift rightwards as war approaches. Or we could have a situation analogous to 1914 where the most extreme left...
