Everything We Knew About Sweatshops Was Wrong

HOLY SHIT they had to travel to fucking Ethiopia to notice that yes, sweatshops are fucking terrible

Isn't it the case that only China has actually seen a noteworthy reduction in poverty, even though Sweatshops are far more widespread?

indeed

You might be right. Lately, A LOT of these op-eds are appearing.

this is literally why i love trump

No, user, they traveled to Ethiopia to somehow think that sweatshops are empowering.

NEW YORK TIMES WILL BE FIRST AGAINST THE WALL

Are you ready for "competitive pay", user?

That's funny, Zizek actually mentions the same in this video: youtube.com/watch?v=1l0sS8dgLa0
Ofcourse, he means it in a very different way than liberals do. Zizek explains how a multitude of people are actually isolated from global capitalism and should be included as part of the proletariat. The marxist classification of the unemployed as the 'reserve army of labor' doesn't hold up anymore, as a lot of people are permanently unemployable.

So… i looked up the economist they quoted expecting to find some sort of Austrian economist turns out shes a post-keynesian who admired Mao and took influence from Marx.

If she saw the people qouting her she would probably spin in her grave.

This wouldn't surprise me to be honest. We're going back 150 years in working conditions, buckos.

I bet she meant it like Zizek did

...

But that will only make the political climate more ripe for socialism.

...

Of course the army of reserve labour is part of the proletariat. Marx would never have argued otherwise.

She actually seems pretty Based tbh

Sucks for them, nothing I can do about it
Oh shit, What the fuck are you doing?

Confirmed: all greentexters have schizophrenia and always indulge in delusions.

You're right, sweat shops are cool job opportunities for plucky upstarts who'll eventually own their own franchises and small businesses and work their way up and become President of the USA one day! It's definitely not just a system of near slave labor thrust on the Global South by the international Bourgeoise, nope.

She does tbh. I'm not big into economic theory but I may pick her up.

She even wrote a book on Marx:

Nobody is blaming the poor, we're, as always, blaming porky. Take your meds

jesus christ how horrifying.

This, honestly.

You dun goofed.

No you dolt, that's not what I'm saying. I'm talking about unemployed people who aren't used as a labour reserve.

This is what Marx actually believed, he praised capitalism for destroying traditional communities.

Kinda doubt that with his whole "Russian communism should be based on the peasant commune" deal.

Source?

...

Yes, but only in that it developed the means of production and created the material conditions for socialist revolution. Sweatshop industrialization should not be praised as an end in itself, as the dumb liberal in OP's post is doing.

...

Wft, is up with this article.

we belived

and then we learned

and so our conclusion is

This is something that would be great for Chapo, since they've been lacking in the theory department for awhile.

Stay filthy, class-traitor!
