just wanted to also make sure that I or others don't feel like they need to come in with a full analysis of the weekly reading in order to comment.
Thanks for saying that, as this is exactly what I was feeling haha. I guess I'll start posting my silly observations and doubts, maybe other people are having the same experience as me but feel kind of intimidated to post them (I do)
A bit behind still due to work and studying, but I hope to catch up soon!
They just left their lives somewhere and forgot about it
Very excited for the notes and insights the comrades here will share. Always very edifying
This and Kapital double feature will go hard
Hexbear unveils it's masterplan to overtake lemmy:
This was a genuine surprise the first time I tried to read Kapital
I wonder how Dems will turn this into the mainstream democrat proposal five years from now
Thanks for the write-up and the links!
I think we're seeing the process of the US slowly getting absorbed and turned into a kind of a capital mitochondria. A type of fuel tank for another bigger thing.
Let's just hope the CPC is really interested in developing other nations as they say they are. This is probably the way out of colonialism on a global scale.
I wonder how China's whole strategy will look like if humanity still exists 100 years from now and we look back at it starting from Deng until 2080 or something.

That's really interesting! Where can I find it too?
It appears so because he was usually writing about Europe specifically. My version of Das Kapital ends with his correspondence with a Russian revolutionary, where he says pretty much that - she asks him if Russia should necessarily go through a capitalist phase before socialism, and he answers Das Kapital is about the western european history specifically, and each place has its own specific history. He tells her about how the development of russian rural communes of the time had the potential to turn Russia into a powerhouse to rival any capitalist country.
Can I still ask questions about ch. 2 in this thread?
spoilering in case no
When he quotes Marx on "the form of a general distribution of the means of production", what exactly does form mean here? He talks about the content right after it, but I can't figure out exactly what this distinction is referring to in this context.
