it's because we gave poor people three stimulus checks that one time, isn't it? :so-true:
Marx forgot to account for the tendency of the fuck rate to implode, and that's why communism will never work.
Maybe it’s the HATE directed at men by the left.

This guy is a fucking arch-ghoul that is always there to shit on any kind of domestic spending and vanishes when it comes to tax cuts and war spending.

I have often remarked on the fact that an “anti-Marxist” argument is only the apparent rejuvenation of a pre-Marxist idea. A so-called “going beyond” Marxism will be at worst only a return to pre-Marxism; at best, only the rediscovery of a thought already contained in the philosophy which one believes he has gone beyond.
:sartre-pipe: "shut the fuck up"
the podcast What's Left of Philosophy has an episode about sartre and marxism and they include this quote i think. i haven only listened to 4 or 5 episodes but it seems good.
It's even worse these days because nobody reads philosophy or social sciences anymore, not even the old stuff, so people keep recycling ideas thinking that they are 'new'. This is especially common in tech-bro, libertarian spheres. I've had like six conversations where people describe reciprocal economies as if they are some new phenomena, and not the primary historical method of trade.
Jean-Paul Sartre was a pedophile rapist creep. He sexually abused girls that his lover, the feminist Simone de Beauvoir, taught at her high school.
"They lived out their freedom in an open relationship, which included seducing, sharing and discarding young women, among them de Beauvoir's high-school students. This ill accords with her liberating feminist philosophy and fiction, and her acerbic analysis of how women are looked at and objectified, restricted to being the "other". Today we call the behavior of the revered existentialist couple "grooming".

a specter is haunting europe, it should be a major task of social science to understand it
Once again, liberalism is just taking what communists and socialists have been writing about for a century and being surprised
"It is only in an order of things in which there are no more classes and class antagonisms that social evolutions will cease to be political revolutions. Till then, on the eve of every general reshuffling of society, the last word of social science will always be: “Le combat ou la mort; la lutte sanguinaire ou le neant. C’est ainsi que la quéstion est invinciblement posée.”
If we were playing Jeopardy, the question would be, "What kind of ignoramus becomes Secretary of the US Treasury?"
