i'm finding this quite easy, i guess in part because i'm a fast type but also because i have a coherent mental model of the world

one important note here is that, by logical necessity, it's other capitalists who capitalists chiefly sell their product to, since they have to buy (c + v) inputs to their production processes, and only the v becomes money in workers' pockets to buy means of subsistence (and those means of subsistence are themselves the result of some other capitalist's c+v, etc)

Race specifically often got legally defined even before people accepted it as part of their identity. This is most obvious in the Americas where kidnapped Africans and indigenous people got colonial systems forced on them. But you later see stuff like US courts trying to figure out how to categorize people from the Middle East or Asia.

this isn't really fair. this thread grew like three or four extra pages in aggregate because a bunch of people who barely post in it parachuted in to demand that one person who barely posts in it be allowed to say a slur, and failed. personally i think it was an instructive example of what quote anti idpol leftists unquote are really about when the chips are down but past a certain point you've got a preponderance of evidence and don't really need to keep gathering data

i actually appreciate flavius for earlier starting a discussion about the xinjiang thing and afaict holding to the new standards for probations established in that thread despite, i'm sure, tons of complaints from QCS or other mods. idk if he's posted much of substance in here but, hell, who has

animals as sources of surplus value actually got discussed in here already. my analysis is that they are just so much constant capital until and unless they become capable of collective bargaining

aren't they basically a form of automation, constant capital. or are the monkeys being paid a wage and given time off to crack some cold ones and nurse their wounds.

it's probably just regular animal abuse, theres not a lot of difference between this and inhumane animal testing or those big Saw™ Traps But For Cows. a product cant be produced without torturing animals

peta made caring about animal abuse easily dismissible by people who dont care by being weirdos, but it is hosed up
