Judge Dredd Scott posted:just finished re-reading liberalism: a counter history and its def still a banger. losurdo is more relevant than ever, i think I'm slowly getting through it. it's good and all, but 340 pages to say libs have bullshit justification for their self serving double standards means a lot of redundancy

Atrocious Joe posted:Verso stable is putting out bangers she imagined a leftist western guy who are making the point that the taliban (and modi?) are anti-imperialist so it's necessary that she replies that the taliban is a product of american imperialism and thus afghanistan shouldn't be left to its fate. that's actually racism ??? she's giving off massive "im actually very smart" vibes.

What is the existing Afghanistani Left that we're supposed to be supporting in lieu of the Taliban or NATO? These kind of arguments came up all the time from the brain dead academic "left" during the middle stages of the Syrian Civil War too. Allegedly there was some kind of real leftist opposition to "support" that could take over the country. It's pure ideological infantilism. It's ignoring actually existing material and social conditions in an effort to score points against posting enemies. They can't even make this argument while clarifying who the Afghan Taliban is apparently an imperialist agent of. Pakistan? Bruh, come on. It's moralistic whining.

I have some disagreements with the Taliban but defeating the USA makes them good, on balance, imo.

dead gay comedy forums posted:loving lol who is the author Michael Ellman. Like, I'm not beyond reading things that are critical of the USSR, and the previous book I read about the Soviet planned economy was that, but I sort of have to draw the line at Robert Conquest-level poo poo. I switched to a biography of Deng Xiaoping instead.

Suggestions on where to start with Gramsci, or does it matter?Cpt_Obvious posted:Started reading The State and Revolution and wow Lenin was a catty bitch. Page 1 and he's spent half of it explaining Engels and the other half taking potshots at rivals.

gramsci's big thing is the prison notebooks but they're pretty huge. probably the most relevant ones to today would be his Cultural Writings
