I mean, same, but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with a dude who consistently acts like a 12 year old on X-box whenever he disagrees with someone in the slightest. It's funny in a way but from the perspective of someone trying to make it so people can post in threads and have discussions about things without being driven away by toxic assholes, people like that can gently caress off.

idk maybe let one of the other 21 members of the mod force handle this since you seem so easily flustered, I'm worried your finger might slip and hit the ban button when you meant to reach for your probe button. then we'll never be able to have a fruitful and productive discussion :(

how difficult is it to grasp that your moderation is neither desired or required by anyone who ever witnessed any of your participation in this thread, which has composed of "lol, gently caress you" and "im going to probate larry becasue he used a bad wrd". nobody wants you here, and i would be infinately more popular as a thread ik.

gently caress you and go away

notably i think flavius has received much more open hostility and demands to leave (as opposed to reasoned discussion) re: the larry thing than he has re: the xinjiang thing,

perhaps there is a larger dialectic link between the two

imho ferrinus made good arguments against saying slurs in the communism thread and i don't understand why it's so important to a small but loud contingent of posters here that a dumbass be allowed to angrily shout the r-word itt

How about reading recommendations but on attempting to synthesize the striving towards the utopian vision of society in a world of climate disruption & displacement, which is forthcoming at some date in the future. These two subjects seem to stay strangely stay about a mile away from each other, or just give vague goals. Let us save the souls of our C-SPAM doomer legion.

Beer is especially interesting imo because of the relatively unsophisticated computers available back then. rather than relying on computers to track and process tons of data, he used deliberately structured information flows to create layers of abstraction so that policy-makers didn't have to deal with masses of data

he had some takes on logistics from my understanding but it must be in one of his other books. Brain is specifically about management

I’ve not gotten to Beer yet but naively this sounds a little like how neural networks deal with information

well, no, the thread is being derailed by the five or six of you who haven't taken this to QCS for some reason. however i think this slapfight can be connected back to the discussion of marxist practice by pointing out that, for some reason, identity issues are completely disposable when it's time to revolt against the hated mods, even in here

just stop

Ferrinus posted:

well, thus far there's been a repeated pattern of one person using a slur and getting punished for it and then about five people who otherwise never post here popping out of the woodwork to consume multiple pages of the thread crying about the punishment. this seems, to me, to constitute a conflict disrupting a thread, and one that is obviously not solved by simply reprimanding the repeat instigator

but if somehow the slur ISN'T a big deal while not being able to post for six hours is, that's a bit weird

So then dialectics is just a thing everyone does already but philosophers made up a word for it to make themselves seem important?

no liberals by and large can’t think dialectically, they see poo poo like senate norms and believe with all of their being that they represent some kind of eternal truth.

Most people don't think about objects in terms of their relations either. A dialectical thinker looks at a commodity and is aware of all the interactions & labor that brought it before them, but for most people those relations are concealed behind an abstraction like "the market."

yah I heard someone describe the design of apple products as intended to give an appearance of a single unified product plucked from heaven and refined by a handful of craftspeople instead of being the product of a planet-spanning chain of logistics exploiting literally millions of people
