When he says he's a Marxist and he hasn't read Hegel

>when he says he's a Marxist and he hasn't read Hegel

Go back to /r9k/, frog shit

/r9k/ is welcome here. They have improved the board.

>Elliot Rodger threads
>'Why can't women understand literature?' and 'has a woman ever written a masterpiece'? threads

Yeah, it's been great

>when he says he's a marxist

Reading Hegel will rot your brain!

>when he says he identifies as something instead of being objective and focused on the subject in front of him

What's will all the Hegel shill threads all of a sudden?

breh you're lucky to find a Marxist that has read Marx these days
maybe if you're lucky they will have read David Harvey's garbage Capital 4 Kids

its someone who hates Hegel trying to give him a bad rep

you don't have to read marx to realize the flaws of capitalism

the main tenets are pretty basic anyway

yeah ok but you have to read Marx to call yourself a Marxist

Yes, yes it has

It's ok if you just try it once. C'mon, everyone's doing it.

says who?

check out this post

You'd be lucky to find a Marxist who has even a cursory understanding of what the tenets of communism actually are.

>you have to read The Origin of Species to believe in evolution

??

>believing in evolution
your grandpa might have been a monkey, but mine sure wasn't

t. Marxists that haven't read Marx

thats why identifying as something doesn't hold much dirt to begin with

I think what mostly brings them together is their opposition to capitalism

what exactly is the problem with that?

how can you understand Marxism if you haven't read Marx?

>when he posts Pepe in Veeky Forums

alas! the flaws of capitalism, like Freedom or Personal Responsibility. 'Tis a true pity im forced to work to earn a living!

How can you understand evolution without reading The Origin of Species?

I read wikipedia articles on it and it seems agreeable

Kapital is much more relevant to modern Marxism than OOTS is to modern evolutionary theory.

what does capitalism have to do with that?

>when he says he's a Marxist
> doesn't know Marx got Rekt and BTFO by Based vonMises and Da Austrian School Gangstaz

my god, and so on
pure ideology

that's a false equivalency and you know it
if someone were to say they were a strict Darwinist I would expect them to have read the Origin of Species
if you haven't read Marx then just call yourself a communist, or better yet just fucking read Marx

Actually most academics only enhance the interests of capitalism with their vision of a world free of trade borders and their advocacy of various brands of lifestyle that companies in turn market useless crap to.

>I think what mostly brings them together is their perceived opposition to capitalism
ftfy
the left does not pose a serious threat to capital (arguably by design)

well sure, every ideology is "perceived"

There's an hegemonic progressive ideology, of which communism and liberalism are but mere branches, which is based on spooks like egalitarianism and progress. And then there's reaction, based on a logical assessment of history, human nature and philosophy

>things I unironically believe

progress is a spook. class-based conflict is a spook

These threads have been here for many years

>my political views r real, urs r spooks lol btfo

criticizing capitalism=/=marxism

>There's an hegemonic progressive ideology, of which communism and liberalism are but mere branches, which is based on spooks like egalitarianism and progress.
120% agree

>And then there's reaction, based on a logical assessment of history, human nature and philosophy
but then you went full retard

I can understand the theory of evolution at it's core, even if I'm not sure how it works in depth. I don't base my thinking or philosophy around evolution, it's a theory I just happen to believe is true.

How can I say I'm a Platonist and base my thinking and philosophy around the teachings of Plato if I haven't even read his books?

>when he says he is a marxist

Fuck David Harvey. Got btfo by kliman.

>he takes Austrian economics seriously when it got ripped apart by bukharin

Marxist is a term that has taken meaning wider than just the theories of Marx. As time moves and we arrive in this brave new world shit, Marx gets progressively relevant to critiquing capitalism.

>socialist "economics"

>he reads hegel

What are you? Just curious lad

This is true, I read Hegel once & now I'm
Gay.

socialism works in theory... But in Reality you eventuallly run out of other people's money haha

Everything, old boy.
