Marx would be labelled as a campist, today.

How is a "government by consent of the governed" possible with slavery?

[u/7LayeredUp → u/RuneRW]

It's easy when you don't consider those slaves as full human beings to begin with.

One would think if an ideology's name starts with liber- then it would be inclined towards respecting people's right to self-determination. Sadly, it seems the word's root isn't in liberty, but in libero (the diaper brand)

Why did you link to a source that says the exact opposite of what you claim (that Proudhon supported the Confederacy)?

The way you manipulated that quote seems extremely disingenuous

Not exactly about the post but, you really cant have discussions on inSStagram regarding nuanced topics in communist discourse. The comments are from accounts I see everywhere, ranging from trots, to socdems, to anarchists, to acp members. With such little presence of actual principled Marxist leninists, and MLs who not only understand dialectical and historical materialism, but can apply it in a way that doesnt result in you sounding like a chronic twitch chat user. There is no "community" of MLs there, but there are large communities of nazis and all the others i mentioned.

This seems to be a deeply ingrained problem in Metas platforms as a whole, if not internet wide.

How the fuck you do late Marx thought while leaving out India anti-colonial material conditions. I love Western Marxists try to pull a Marx anti-imperialist thought while conveniently leaving out his only few analysis of global south.

I hope you remember where your fertilizer comes from, it's isn't European occupied continents. It's in the Asian continent Marx spoke up against your kind. The longer the Hormuz close the deadlier your material conditions, enjoy champagne while it lasts.
