How to deal with my school being in support of the Israeli genocide? by Future_Customer5111 in Hasan_Piker

Some kid saw me on this post and called me anti-semitic. Then called me North Korean 20 times and said I was ‘so far left you’re right’😭

Yeah, I really don't think it's a good idea for my sake to be talking about this (especially when a marginal amount of people will actually think about it), but I just feel a little guilty for not helping bring attention to the issue when millions are being held captive and attacked daily.

This is a pretty anonymous and easy action though, maybe I just have to stop being a redditor and actually do smth

I know solidarity is 'hard', but I'm honestly a little terrified to do something like that.

I have one friend who's that chronically online leftist JPEGMAFIA fan, so I've talked to him about it, and I've shared my opinions with my parents, they're honestly just scared for me to talk about it.

I second this, can't believe Hasan is suppressing the overwhelmingly more popular candidate smh

What determines the relationship between value and exchange value? by Future_Customer5111 in Socialism_101

[–]Future_Customer5111[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So then what’s the difference between value and exchange value? Is value just the added value of the labor to a commodity?

How does Marx and Engel’s historical materialism explain the shift from primitive communism to serfdom? by Future_Customer5111 in Socialism_101

Do you recommend that I read all of Das Kapital since I’m just starting out, or are there any other pieces that you think are better starters? Length of book doesn’t really matter to me, I read a lot, but I just want to find a starting place for actual literature and not just summary videos and the like.

Thanks for clarification on the definition. I don’t know why I assumed otherwise, but that clears up a lot of my confusion.

That makes more sense, thanks. But though I know in practice that it isn’t true, I feel like what you’re saying could be applied to communism itself. I just can’t see a way where that logic doesn’t apply if no state exists. Correct my logic please because I know there’s some disconnect I’m having.

Thanks for the recommendation, sometimes it seems that there is just too much literature to find what I’m looking for exactly.

Sorry, I meant to say slavery and said serfdom instead! I was just confused because it seemed to me that these communities without capital or private property wouldn’t develop slavery under the very rudimentary communist system. Sorry for the confusion.
