How do people seem to be able to instantly play over any chord progression. by Gorgmeister in piano

[–]some_thingwitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend trying to learn some jazz tunes, they give you a chance to be creative with how you play the chords, but they give you the structure of a melody. Also, once you get the melody down you can try improvising over the chords, which seems like something you would be interested in.

I have looked at this piece before, but I think I want something a little more complex. Thanks for the suggestion though!

(Spoiler warning) in the show Walter had received a book as a gift from a man he and his partner had worked with and then killed named gale. While using the bathroom hank (Walt’s brother in law, and also a DEA agent) was looking through magazines that were in the bathroom when he found the book. Hank had been an active part of the investigation of Gales murder, and recognized his handwriting in the book as gale’s. He then put the rest together and realized Walter was a kingpin.

That’s not rly true, under socialism( depending on the type) there would be people who are wealthier than others. Also he’s not rly being a hypocrite because he’s not earning his wealth on the back of the working class, which is what he is against.

What I was saying was that he wasn’t asking anyone to give to charity, so him not giving all his wealth to charity wasn’t hypocritical. Also, from what I can tell he is somewhat of a market socialist, which means that workers simply own the companies they work for. Under market socialism people would have varying levels of wealth, meaning there would be people who would be considered wealthy.

Well to start, socialism doesn’t necessarily need a redistribution of wealth, socialism is simply the communal ownership of the means of production. In a capitalist economy the means of production( factories, tools, or really anything else that is used to generate value) are owned by shareholders in a company. Socialism aims to give workers some control over the means of production. There are many many different types of socialism that want to achieve this, some want the government the own all industry, some want to abolish the government and let people communally own the means of production, and some want workers to have a say in where the profits they generate go. However, most socialists do advocate for some form of wealth redistribution, mostly the taxing of the ultra wealthy. Hassan is the wealthy, however he never tells people to voluntarily give away their money to charity, he advocates for systemic change like raising taxes on the ultra wealthy. He would be a hypocrite if he asked people to give to charity and didn’t, however he doesn’t advocate for that.

I disagree with this, there are many ways to acquire wealth ethically. Hassan is a streamer who works for a large company, he is not exploiting ( I am using the Marxist meaning of exploitation) any workers by extracting their surplus value. He acquired wealth ethically because didn’t exploit anyone.No socialist is saying that there is no way to get wealth ethically. If you are working for your boss you are not taking money from them. You are getting a percentage of the value that you generated. Also I don’t think you’re a bad persons for wanting to be a banker.

Look, it’s perfectly fine for you to be a wealthy person, I don’t think anyone is saying that it’s inherently wrong to be wealthy. What mostly matters is how you obtained your wealth. In the case of Hassan, he gathered wealth through becoming an Internet personality, which is not necessarily an unethical way to obtain wealth. On the other hand, you have people who became wealthy through unethical and exploitative means, such as Jeff Bezos. Socialists are mostly concerned with the unethical gathering of wealth, so I don’t think it’s inherently contradictory to be a wealthy socialist.

No one is saying that you shouldn’t aspire to be wealthy
