Pener Kropoopkin posted:I do like Richard Wolff and making it easier for workers to own their own enterprises is a positive and realistic goal for the American left, but co-ops still have to operate according to capitalist rules and logic. is the issue here merely the presence of the market? imagine an economy comprising only individual proprietors who own their productive assets (looms, lathes, etc.), and are subject to a 100% estate tax; there is by definition no exploitation, because there is no expropriation of surplus value from any participant, but instead each consumes a level of use values determined by that participant, and correspondingly each may elect to produce more goods for exchange or fewer ones. would that still be a flawed model? just trying to flesh out the objection here.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:I think in that case what you're describing is Distributism, and exploitation isn't eliminated because you can still exploit peoples' ignorance through pricing on your goods to extract profit. ok, so setting aside the pricing point (there's some interesting discussion in capital vol 1 on this) the key issue looks to be the broader (capitalist) environment in which the proprietor (or co-op) would be operating under present legal and economic conditions, which certainly seems like a fair concern. appreciate the response, and if there are further questions i'll take them to one of the other threads.

Serf posted:the expanded universe was largely garbage personally i wish for the reboot they’d ditched the existing storyline (and actors) and done something new set in a much earlier (or later) era a la kotor; there would still be the compelling setting, but the narrative possibilities would have been a lot more open ended

with the original, the refusal of the call was an effective evocation of the monomyth; in tfa it’s just a mediocre reskin

Jizz Festival posted:Oh jesus, how has nobody mentioned Zero Squared? Each episode has Douglas Lain of Zero Books (publisher of Kill All Normies and a bunch of other great books) interviewing a guest. The focus is on philosophy rather than current events, and Doug's not afraid to go deep into the weeds of philosophical disagreements if his guests are also willing. Zero Books also puts out youtube videos that might give you an idea of what they're all about. Have been enjoying the podcast, many thanks for the rec!
