imo the main distinction between lumpen and the regular proletarial is that the latter has more leverage and is easier to organize. sadly globalisation has considerably diminished that leverage because it has multiplied intermediaries and companies can easily move from one country to the next. people should probably stick through the first few chapters of the Capital, it becomes way more readable after that. this one is a pretty good commentary, i'm guessing it's on libgen https://www.versobooks.com/books/2264-the-philosophy-of-marx

unwantedplatypus posted:Wait is the Losurdo book considered good? I assumed a book about an Italian calling a Georgian a black legend was being mentioned as a joke it's a good book. verso are cowards for not publishing it Ferrinus posted:lots of capital is just marx predicting and debunking a liberal rejoinder to some extremely basic point he's making, so a helpful way to understand sections that seem to come out of nowhere is to ask yourself what disingenuous bullshit must have made marx mad enough to spend five paragraphs on this most of marx's work is him bitching about his stupid contemporaries.

apropos to nothing posted:id also say that re: the discussion yall had earlier about reading marx, you should read with people, and not people online. i don't see what's wrong with people online making you understand marxist ideas better. i live in a very small town and i don't have many opportunies to talk to stuff through irl.

Azathoth posted:How does Bradley K. Martin's Under the Loving Care of the Fatherly Leader: North Korea and the Kim Dynasty hold up? I read it back before Kim Jong-Il died and mostly remember it for the bits and pieces of Kim Jong-Un's life in boarding school. He wasn't supposed to be the successor at the time so he didn't get much treatment as I recall. the author works for Asia Times so i'm guessing it's pure propaganda

Sunny Side Up posted:Any recommendations for videos or podcasts (or books or anything) on a Marxist critique of Foucault or power dynamics between oppressed/exploited people? So far all I found is a quora post and BadEmpanada sharing evidence Foucault was a pedophile sex tourist there's a collective book called Foucault and neoliberalism that has some pretty good essays. there's also this https://ctheory.sitehost.iu.edu/resources/fall2020/Rockhill_Foucault_The_Faux_Radical_Final_Version.pdf

BrutalistMcDonalds posted:i did see das rheingold recently where the gods exit towards valhalla at the end. wagner was an enthusiastic supporter for the revolution of 1848 (a german nationalist and all), and was writing anti-clerical and proto-socialist articles. but he obviously went in in a reactionary / romantic direction later which the nazis liked. lunacharsky was such a fanboy though that he thought they shouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater, and that soviet composers should try to do as good a job at making operas. wagner was obviously a reactionary but equating romantism to conservativeness is pretty anachronistic. wagner's scores were incredibly adventurous.

dead gay comedy forums posted:I consider his Diogenes-like trolling rather necessary to help some leftists get themselves together. As for an OP, I think that poo poo gets funnier and funnier because people forget that he is, well, Zizek: walking neurotic clusterfuck that lisps, twitches and sneezes as physical conversions because of how bad is his neurosis. Not exactly spookwork material imho haha lol have you read his natoist poo poo i don't think his writings about ideology are very good, he's a prime example of the cultural shift in western communism, now most of the big self-proclaimed marxists intellectuals in the left have zero interest in analysing material conditions.
