Antonie Pannekoek, born on this day in 1873, was a Dutch astronomer, philosopher, Marxist theorist, and socialist revolutionary.
A respected Marxist theorist, Pannekoek was one of the founders of council communism and a main figure in the radical left in the Netherlands and Germany, active in the Communist Party of the Netherlands, the Communist Workers' Party of the Netherlands and the Communist Workers' Party of Germany.
Pannekoek is perhaps best known for his writing on workers' councils. He regarded these as a new form of organization capable of overcoming the limitations of the old institutions of the labor movement, the trade unions and social democratic parties.
He was a sharp critic of anarchism, social democracy, and Leninism. During the early years of the Russian revolution, Pannekoek gave critical support to the Bolsheviks.
Unlike some other progressive thinkers of his time, Pannekoek was also highly critical of social darwinism, derisively calling it "bourgeois darwinism".

Why do all these flyover state dipshits think their personal lives haven't improved? Things are better than they have in years. Instead of paying attention and getting bogged down with details of their own day to day distractions, they ought to check out financial reporting in WaPo or the Times. They might be surprised to learn things aren't as bad as their experiences make it seem.

Sometimes I'm legitimately like "what did I even do in school?".
I was there for 13 years and I remember bits and pieces and that's it.
I swear search engines have been sucking more and more for a decade. I use DuckDuckGo but Google or Startpage isn't much better. Sometimes I will search for things I already know just to see what keywords I'd need to type to get to that answer.
This stuff has really altered our information/memory recall huh. Each user a unique set of search queries and metatags, repositories of keywords
So my state doesn't guarantee me any breaks. The company I work for also doesn't guarantee me any breaks. How is everyone who works not a communist?
I have transcended all such thoughts. Flesh is irrelevant to my needs. There is only silicone. Embrace the machine
I've been trying to inoculate myself for years now, and I'm no less bisexual. Vaccine theory destroyed, just get gay COVID.
I don't want to sound presumptive, but I thought the tone of your posts had changed recently. I hope things work out and you'll be able to get what you need to get better :penguin-love:

reviving Adam Smith to explain modern capitalism to him
"so, you make the magic box do maths, which gives you fractions of special coins- no, you can't use the special coins to pay your rent or buy food. ok, so you get the special coins and then you use those to buy a receipt for a picture of a cartoon ape. and yeah, you just buy and sell those apes and that's the bulk of human productivity in 2021"
at this point he then shoots himself in the head
