Can we have a thread for small question and request please?

Keep at it!

I like Althusser a lot in many respects. What does it mean when he is called a structuralist? What are other sociological (or whatever) labels we put on Marxists and how do they distinguish from structuralism?

If lgbt people agree to supply sperm banks and birth/raise children, can they live their private lives as they wish in peace?

Or will it be the USSR all over again?

Why do jews own everything

Back in the days when I was a kid we used to watch cartoons filled with action, violence and manly characters that served as roles as we wanted to be cool and manly just like them. The cartoons basically had everything a boy likes and wanted to be. Nowadays you kids watch those anime stuff where the characters are frail little girls and the plot usually revolves around girls doing girly things in school or whatever and even when the plot has some good action and violence the main characters are still frail little girls.
Now my question is why the hell do you enjoy watching this shit? do you kids actually want to be a little girl? I mean WTF is wrong with y'all?

Ohh, how I shiggy your diggy, Destro!

We are not kids any more.

Can you guys recommend me a book about Marxism and pschoanalysis? I asked on /freedu/ and somebody mentioned Fromm. But I'm not sure if I should read him or go with a more Lacanian approach.

should I read Foucault if I don't know anything about philosophy?

Before you get paragraph meme-tier responses from flag-bearers:

No. Start with something you can comprehend. Also to make it clearer: are you looking for social science, OR philosophy. If you'd like a "well aren't they the same thing" sort of answer, begin at Marx. A short introduction to is generally great. If you like philosophy, move to hegel. if you like social sciences, move to writers who elaborate and build on Marx's methodology: i.e. David Harvey.

Social sciences that aren't psychology (i.e. sociology) will be a stronger foundation if your endpoint is Foucault; please start with Durkheim if Marx is lol 3 volumes fuck or some cunt called Max Weber.

Also, start with Freud. Ignore Lacan for now.

I'd rather watch sweaty, muscular men than cute girls

OK.
But why do you enjoy it tho? what's the appeal?

That actually just make things even worse.

Can you recommend a specific book by David Harvey?

I'm not sure why do you men by this. I should read Durkheim or Weber if I don't like Marx?

I already read 2 introduction to Psychoanalysis. One specifically about Freud and the other on psychoanalysis in general but it made more emphasis on Freud and Kleine.

I'm currently reading A Clinical Introduction to Lacanian Psychoanalysis because an user from /freedu/ recommended it. It looks good. But it seems that Lacan cares more about language to show the unconscious while Freud cares more about physical symptoms and how do they relate to an oral, anal or phallic stage.

I'm not sure if I get it.

Limits to Capital - David Harvey. If it's too strong in terminology, listen to his lectures on youtube - great supplement.

If you find yourself questioning the relevance of Marx, and you think you're interested in social theory, switch to Durkheim and Weber. Then go back to Marx when it's less of a chore.

That's gonna be your litmus test for half of this shit. Not just "if you can't explain it, you don't understand it", but, if you don't feel confident enough to pull it apart, make sure you read around it until it clicks. If you still don't get it in your wider reading, go to a simpler source with an easier to understand explanation.

Durkheim and Weber are great for ^ this because of a general level of accessibility in their writings. They're also incredibly formulaic, so they take a very no nonsense attitude and will leave you with less of a chance of feeling lost.

If you enjoyed Freud, pick up on his major works; his writings are extremely concise, and will work perfectly in conjunction with whatever you've read about him.

I can't speak for most, but I'm personally genderfluid (not the tumblr definition, my body alternates between strong testosterone and strong estrogen levels), so that may be why I like tankie porn as well as cutesy animoo.

How is stating the truth being tech illiterate?

ecks dee to you too my friend

Because Linux does support video games.

All one of them.

thanks bro

But should I continue with Freud or take a leap with Lacan? I feel that Freud's original work is reading something that has become 'outdated' by Lacan. So I don't know if this is true or not because I don't wat to waste my time.

Steam is available on Linux, you faggots

It's GNU/Linux.

...

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Is a house personal or private property?

personal

How about the area around the house?

"Linux does not support videogames" is a tech illiterate statement. It shows you do not understand how software works.

What the hell are neo-liberal activist groups?

What is the actual difference between communism and socialism?

Socialism is a broader category that includes communism and other socialist systems.

If you want just definitions:
Socialism - Collective ownership of the means of production (things used to produce commodities and accumulate capital, e.g. fields, factories, workshops)
Communism - A stateless, classless, and moneyless society

Don't we have overpopulation already?
Do we realy need more bodies for the army, when everything is drones?

Capitalism.

He-Man

JoJo

Do you live in it or rent it?

Socialism is the path to a communist utopia.

NEXT!

Scenario: World communism is achieved, but tribes inside the Amazon are still functioning on the basis of primitive communism. They have never really had any contact with the outside world and are perfectly fine as they are.

How would you deal with the situation?
Would you attempt to make them assimilate?
Would you be okay with them being a zoological phenomenon?
Would it be okay to study them?
Would it be ethical to develop a communist 'utopia' (here I just mean all needs secured for all) and not include them?
If some wandered out, would you be okay with them functioning as pets to the people that feed them delicious chocolates?

let them come to you if they want. If not, leave them alone.

Tell me, Holla Forums…

was it an inside job?

...

Don't really know tbh.
I can see why it would be good for some interests in America to blow them up.
I can also see why some fundamentalist muslims would want to blow them up.

I don't know much about steel beams or George Bush though.

WTF IZ WRONG WITH YOU?

Might as well.
Might just have been allowed to happen.
It has surely been exploited, though, thus rendering the cause irrelavant. The outcome is what realy matters.

NEXT!

Also, here.

What are tankies anyways? I thought they were the kind of lefty to go full Stalin or Kim Jong, but I've been getting conflicting reactions with my usage of the word.

It's vidya that's not supporting GNU/Linux.

Nowadays - anyone who supports USSR more, than you want them to.

Ideas about tankies being Stalinists are retarded in the extreme: Hungary happened 3 years after Stalin's death, when Khruschev (who was openly anti-Stalinist) was in charge.

What's the song in this video?

Excuse me, I was trying to make thread like this one ITT.

Would any of you shopfigs/drawfigs be willing to create alternate version of this popular and often reposted reaction image:
1. "Proletarian Power" with classical H&S (say - Stalinist)
2. "Worker Power" with one (see PPS) or two (see Hammerskins) hammers
3. "Peasant Power" with scythe and sickle, like on those early Soviet planned CoAs and Latvian SSR (muh Riflemen).
I ask for those specifically because usage of Leninist symbol of Peasant and Worker uniting can be seen as sovok, it's a national Russian symbol afterall. And the fact that I am of Peasant origin – Well.

And extra - 4. "Slavonic/Slavic/Slav Power" with either Kolovrat or Hands of God/Slavic Cross. Gonna respect homeland of Lenin and Tito.
