Having been here since early 2015, it seems like Holla Forums seems to be more preoccupied with talking about existentialism and Ray Kurzweil sci-fi bullshit over class. Even the Reddit commies talk about class more than we do.
It feels like when something relevant to leftism comes up, all you do is start wallowing in existentialism, depression and suicidal thoughts. Even when talking about what you would do after the revolution you say "imma kill mahself lawl."
pic completely unrelated
Sounds like you haven't really been here tbh
Yeah I wish we talked about sci-fi and existentialism instead of arguing about idpol and responding to Holla Forums bait.
Hello reddit!
Maybe if you fags actually read shit and wouldn't unironically worship every dead edgy communist there ever was…
MAYBE IF YOU CAME UP WITH SOLUTIONS and IDEAS
like NEW INSTITUTIONS
etc.
We need a reading group that's not about some ancient fucking tome,considering 80% of people here haven't even read Marx.
We should have entry-level shit like pic related.
Communists did pretty well considering MARX is outdated as fuck and EVERY FUCKING anti-communist argument nowadays is MARXIST THIS ,MARXIST THAT.
The reason this board is getting shittier is because a lot of people that browse it got all their anti-capitalist ideas from memes ,not even Zizek.Chomsky or Richard Wolff talks.
What I'm basically saying is we need to bump up the intellectualism in this board.
wew
i didn't fkin say that.
lol
Most of the existentialists were commies.
and how is having accessible literature bad?
Anarhco-nihilist shitposting is to blame.
what exactly makes 23 Things "accessible"
if they won't even watch wolff where he almost literally spoonfeeds them what makes you think they'll read a book of any length
I guess you're right.
(You)
What's funny is that, whenever we had a reading group here, it was always existentialist or stirner horseshit, instead of anything related to socialism.
I suggest you stop using that. It only legitimizes them as an actual subdivision of anarchism. In reality they are only a few early 20s loners on this board who apply philosophy to their crippling depression.
...
why is it a bad thing to think about the future of society and capitalism?
No doubt, automation is coming and this will have a huge effect on peoples lives.
Soon the internet will be in everything, the buzzword for this is "the internet of things",
This will effect the ecnomy and society greatly.
Think about when 3d printers are ubiquitous in every home.
What if you printout solar panels, use the solar panels for free energy?
THINGS ARE GOING TO FUCKING CHANGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
How ironic that every nihilist I've seen acts like the one on the left picture.
feel free to get fucked guy
nihilism isn't the cause of their depression
I suspect it is usually the other way around.
Oh hello Reddit! How's the shitposting on r/FULLCOMMUNISM to protect the legacy of North Korea been going lately? Or the Golden r/Socialism and their Golden Stance?
the 3d printer meme needs to die.
you can't fucking print solar panels.
That's where you're wrong kiddo
Maybe you should check out r/socialism. It sure is a lot more on topic than what Holla Forums is these days. It does have some identity politics posts but it is overall a better resource at the time.
I'm not from reddit. If anything, I really just want to get Holla Forums on track.
I really doubt the veracity of this. Elon Musk has a fair number of highly dubious super-tech claims.
