Solidarity is not a game, it is not about "dissolving gendered class distinctions through kinky sex". it is frustrating and sucks your spirit away, as if you are circling forever on the edge of a blissful cathartic release
:matt:
I can't fuck real good because I'm actually too competent of a materialist.
Um... so just asking for a friend, which ideology is “dissolving gendered class distinctions through kinky sex”?
Egoism
But
Imy friend knows how to destroy their ego through kinky sex.
Revolution will not create for "Tantric orgasms of inordinate length" or make you able to "see past infinity". Dengist market reforms are not "way past cool". Class consciousness will not "breed super soldiers capable of telepathy and psychokinesis".
The revolution will not give your mouth sex appeal
The revolution will not get rid of the nubs
The revolution will not make you look five pounds thinner, because
The revolution will not be televised, brother
So me being a 28 year old virgin makes me the one true leftist is my take away. Thank god here I thought I was missing out on something. Will continue on my course of becoming a leftist wizard, metaphorically since no magic powers :angery:
Marxism is fun though. I wanted to be an anthropologist because history, culture, and social organisation were always fascinating to me. Abstract sociohistorical studies with field expeditions is the perfect work environment and I could work 40 years happy. Sociology was a bunch of technical jargon to get a handle on but it's people-watching with extra layers of information. That's fun because people are weird. Marxism synthesised my materialist worldview, my interests in those three fields, and my ability to understand something on many different interlocking levels. Dialectics is fun because when I'm on a hike ecology one of the most engaging ways of seeing the landscape and I have a formal materialistic way of understanding the relationships a plant or an animal or a waterway exist through, not only on that immediate level but how they exist in the context of wider nature or human-nature interaction.
I was an anthropology undergrad, the field seems really incomplete without Marxism.
Very. Especially being a white European going into it, it's very easy for the field to become the intellectual arm of white supremacy. Having an idea of base and superstructure, philosophical grounding in anticolonialism, and conscious materialism really helped me understand those cultures in a more neutral and wholistic way.
It does let me predict the future somewhat often so explain how that isn't magic powers? liberals never listen though so maybe more of a magic curse.
