I'm so tired of living in a world where everything is such horrible bullshit no matter where you look and the general consensus is that while we can put people on other planets we just can't find a better way to distribute food or healthcare ya know

    I have never heard of this maybe I should read Capital someday. Good grief this is what counts as capitalist thought? But no its communism that only works in theory

      totally recommend Hadas Thier's A People's Guide to Capitalism. I'm reading it now, and she gives you a decent summary of the important concepts. Marx's capital is heavy as shit, even if you wanna read it you should have some kind of guide.

      btw, if you think this is bad, check out the theory of marginal utility...sounds dumb as shit and its meant to dispute Marx's commodity form.
