#marxism

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

Reading Marx is like unearthing the Necronomicon in a university library, a forbidden text that lays bare capitalism's inner workings.

But the true horror lies in realizing you're surrounded by people who treat exploitation as 'just how things work.' Suddenly the world reveals itself as a self-sustaining asylum, where the so-called 'rational' diligently reproduce the madness of the system.

Occurs to me I never did an #introduction post. I'm Cait, mid-50s, GenX, hard left politically. I have a YouTube channel, where I play #FootballManager23 and board #wargames.

I'm interested in just about anything that isn't related to celebrities. I follow many of the tenets of #Marxism in my daily life. I am #atheist.

I am #queer af. I support myself (I'm disabled) by educating cis het people about the queer community. I strive to be anti-racist. I support #trans folk. And I'm a #polyglot.

I've been here for a while but haven't done a proper #Introduction

🔹 I am Youssef from Morocco 🇲🇦 and I work in IT
🔹#cinephile : Italian neorealism, French New Wave, Silent film, noir
🔹 interested in #literature, #philosophy #poetry and #psychoanalysis
🔹 Specifically, I gravitate towards the intersection of #hegel and #lacan, and German Idealism more broadly. Also #marxism and #postmodernism
🔹 An advocate of #opensource interested in the intersection between #tech, #philosophy and #polítics

#introduction part 3,

As mentioned, I mainly study #internationalrelations mainly from a #comparative perspective. That said, right wing violent extremism is a growing problem across the West and developing world. As a result, it's become a focus of mine and usually features in at least one of my papers every semester. #EthnicNationalism is probably going to be my focus for a masters degree.
My own politics are a mix of #marxism. I'm reading a lot of #gramsci and #foucault and #zizek atm.

I'm a grandparent. And I live for myself, and with those people dear to me, family or not.

I have lived in 7 different countries. #marxism is far from dead; #BLM; #sexwork is work; #sexuality and pleasure and #freedom are just so important;

#animalrights matter; human animals are part of a vast planetary #ecology and an extremely vast universe in which we are only a speck. I hope that I will live to see the day that #robots and #ai start on their journey to emancipation.
