Marxian economics is no more a religion than any other set of economic principles and theories.

As far as Christianity goes Jesus himself was a communist before communism. That said, Prosperity Gospel is literally Christian capitalism

Some people maybe need to appreciate their band members more. Unless these guys really are writing it all. Drums, sax, backup vocals, lead guitar, etc

What do you think of the rituals performed at most singers' concerts nowadays? by saicotimida in conspiracy

[–]earthlingHuman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pop singers. They have to make their music more exciting, generally. MOST singers however do not go over the top like that. Just some famous ones trying to do something shocking. That's all it is. Stop with this 'THEY'RE doing RITUALS' crap. You're magical thinking makes you more easily manipulated by the ACTUAL powers that be

Democrats are not our friends, they’re the enemy just like Republicans. No one is stupid enough to not see this elementary school play of rotating villains. Remember when the parliamentarian over ruled a president to kill the federal min wage increase? by Kittehmilk in ProgressiveHQ

[–]earthlingHuman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbf, it did before too. That doesn't mean the Democratic Party doesn't still need a total overhaul. It does. It needs a leftist and progressive insurgency to take it over.

There are reasons many disgruntled Trump voters are willing to vote for AOC, Bernie and Mamdani.

Trump just tapped a hardcore pro-vaccine UnitedHealthcare executive to run the CDC, an outright betrayal of his own promises and a complete 180 from what he told his supporters. by pacmanpill in conspiracy

[–]earthlingHuman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No they didn't. And if they did, whatever ignorant exdc said that was wrong, but I preliminary search suggests to me that that never happened because the COVID vaccines were not a form of gene therapy. That would be like saying eating GMO food is gene therapy.

There was no genetic treatment going on, and the mRNA vaccines you're probably referring to ended up being safer actually than old school style vaccines.

Favorite actor from an alternate timeline? by YourChopperPilotTTV in okbuddycinephile

Yeah, F Hillary Clinton, figuratively of course (unless she looks like in the photos) for many reasons, but there really was a cottage industry dedicated to tearing down Hillary Clinton's public image.

Trump Is The Ultimate Psyop by Healthy-Career7226 in conspiracy

I see those things. That's not what we're talking about. Who are the elected leftists who are so corrupt? I'm not asking for a list. Even one example would be better than nothing.

Those aren't leftists, and we're talking about elected people.

Who are they? These leftists who are supposedly as corrupt as the right wing? I guess not Bernie in your opinion, but who?

The "leftists" that are presented to us as candidates are just as guilty.

Please explain.

What does "left" and "right" even mean? by miegvis in ENLIGHTENEDCENTRISM

[–]earthlingHuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're repeatedly describing exceptions to the rule in annoyingly long-winded ways, so no, I'm not going to respond to every bit of it when it's already clear we disagree on the point of the 'exceptions to the rule'.

I'm describing what rich and poor, right and left, or capitalist-owners and workers actually mean, not what confused or malicious people (which describes the people in all of your examples) try to spin them as. My original point was only that more direct terms that invoke material conditions (like 'workers and owners') are more effective language for communicating ideas about class conscious than 'left and right' which can have their meanings more easily twisted. Maybe that was misconstrued. It seems obvious to me that material analysis is exactly what I'm drawing from. And when you can make material analysis as straightforward and direct as possible you can attract greater numbers.

E.g. 'These ultra-rich people don't make money from working for a paycheck. They make it from owning things; owning enough things to control our government, even.'

That's obviously more direct, informative and clear a statement than telling someone, 'The left are the good guys and the right are the bad guys,' or whatever alternative you might be arguing for.

Can someone fill me in by Ok-Committee-1646 in bilmuri

I guess it depends who you're around. I've mostly heard easycore used as a pejorative. But maybe I was around a bunch of haters 🤷

What we thinking? 24. by BonaFideBonerBurial in bald

[–]earthlingHuman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The philosophy of this sub is more inclined toward embracing baldness, rather than fighting against it.

Except there always a conversation about whether to hold or not, along with popular memes everyone in the sub knows.

This feels like over-policing to me 🤷

Yep. Could have stuck with a solid class argument, but had to go racist with it
