Marx is the reasonable endpoint to British political economy from Smith to Ricardo. Marx is saying, like a few other people, "this doesn't work". It's worthwhile to note that just about everyone in economics had an axe to grind with the British free trade system, and so you can find in Sismondi scathing criticism of what this is doing to the people and anything someone would want out of it. The Smithian system was not a "total system" in that way that required everyone to violently reassert it as if history cannot change. It's very clearly the opening of the study of "economics" as a thing, rather than a dogma to follow like a religion.

There are problems with some of the people who say "morality is for fags" when discussing Marx. Adam Smith was a moral philosopher, and none of capitalism works if the agents do not morally value anything they're doing. Basically, if those in charge of the system do not want to do this for their own reasons, it can end immediately. What can't end is that there are a lot of people dealing in money and production, and there will be some understanding between them of what they are doing.

I'll just say that everything in Capital could be understood within the British understanding without any "dialectics" or assumptions Marx made about human nature in his other writings. It does help to understand why Marx approached the problem as he did, but the explanation is sensical based on what we know about mechanics. The one "trick" of Marx is abstract labor as a category, which is peculiar to Capital. Before, the labor theory was somewhat vague, since it was primarily a moral claim rather than a scientific one. Ricardo made a violent assumption that labor values are, absent any compelling reason to believe otherwise, equal, but quickly moves to remind the reader it doesn't actually work this way in any complex society, where there are already established customs and expectations that are valued by the participants. What working with abstract labor does is answer pertinent questions like the "Machine Problem", and if you have a mind for operations research, this is really important. Managers have to deal with labor as an abstraction if they want to do anything other than motivational speeches or cracking the whip, and the factory requires this task to produce a product. To Adam Smith, everything in the factory is accomplishPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I don't know if that proves them wrong since I don't know their claim, but it's very clear that you can put Marx in classical political economy because Capital was entire working with the system Ricardo described and took its claims seriously, rather than pretending selectively which did not exist.

Glad to be helpful.

I hope to describe in the fifth and sixth books of this series what "this" really, this situation. It's not really an economic proposition or "system" in the way the inquiry into political economy rooted the social order in commerce. You have a proposition about what institutions were going to be that was technocratic, and then you had eugenism which is at heart a religious and spiritual proposal of what humans "WILL" be. The economic situation superficially resembles free trade, in that the fiction that this is just about commerce is maintained. But, everything a human being values is pushed all the way to eugenics and nothing else. They're cannibalizing everything that is not eugenics and insisting this is all there can be. There will not be anything in the world that is shielded from eugenics, and all institutions will be subordinated to the "greater Jehad". What will remain will be the last remnants of the technocratic order that half-maintain "society" for the rich and openly wage war against the rest of us, and the final system of government that I believe will be locked in by the last third of this century. I'm fairly confident that is the plan they're going with now, anyway. Eugenics will kill off everyone they didn't want to keep, and then the "true power" tosses out the eugenists and does what they really wanted to do with the world, if anything. I can already foresee that the eugenist plan for the world cannot survive the century. It probably won't survive the decade as it exists now. That is, the eugenist screeching that they promote with Zionism will have served most of its purpose by 2030, and humanity will turn into a pure "disposal economy". The eugenists, who were always managerial swine at their core, will find that they are not only superfluous but that their existence is such a cancer that it will be easy to relegate them to their role as natural slaves, just capable enough to make us suffer. That is their world-historical mission. Most of us have no hope. The only thing we have to live for is seeing the eugenists fail. We will have no children, and we will not even be allowed to leave behind a single artifact, since they want to dePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Did the Renaissance change art only for the better?

For example, are there any negative things to say about the way music evolved during that period?

All I hear and read about Renaissance art (hell, anything to do with the period, for that matter) are positive things or at least it's talked about in a positive light. Zero criticisms of it whatsoever.

The Renaissance is the boot-loader for the enlightenment and modernity. Heidegger complains that it is weakening feudal and theocratic power. He doesn't say like that of course.

No clue what Kant said.

/edu/ what are some resources that you've used or know of to help newbies learn to organise?

Obviously "Just join local X to get experience", but just doing prior reading.

MLs, Anarkiddies, Syndies, etc. All sources and styles welcome.

Just trying to build a little portfolio to read and share.

Any enthusiasts of it on the board? I have read a good chunk of Andrew Kliman's Reclaiming Marx's Capital, but I admit that it mostly clears the deck of red herrings rather than makes an argument for a rigorous mathematical formulation of marxist economics.

In particular it does explicitly formulate how the tprf leads to recurring recessions (directly or indirectly).

I have an electronic copy of the pic book but haven't read it yet.

Can you please give me a copy of the book so I can read it?

I am not some kind of enthusiast TSSI guru but I do want to get into it.

There was this test done at one point on predicting prices and the TSSI outperformed both the subjective tov and marxist ltv version of theauthor's.

There's fixes for some of your complaints

By inverting the direction of the money flow, as in paying students a wage to complete an education. That'll end the "pay to win" scam and it should recenter on skills and talents.

About the credientialism problem, that's inherent to any formal education. That probably can't be fixed. You can however ad an informal education system in parallel that is based on a mentor and apprentice dynamic, that way there would at least be an alternative path.

Thread about planning, programs, laws, and practice (by the state or others) that have the characteristics of being politically incorrect and or morally questionable, but reasonable and or executable.

My specific request, give me literature about sterilization (forced or not) of people of color, breeding programs, family planning, and eugenics. Not talking about one of those "nAZi BreeDIng ProgRAm DoeSN't WOrK!!! *insert soy" type of books and documents. I am talking about literatures that actually tells me how it is done and doesn't just smear dung all over it.

Excellent documentary on how one man recreated a Vermeer painting. A medieval artist renowned for creating paintings that appear to be taken by a photograph.
We built what he believes is an optical machine using only technology of the time, that allowed Vermeer to create his seemingly inhuman masterpieces.
What do you anons think?
