funny how bourgeois ideology says the left “reduces” everything to class when we’re the only ones that talk about it. it’s almost like they don’t want us to talk about it or something

[fullpraxisnow]

[H]ere’s the thing…The moral power of Marx’s work doesn’t just derive from its systematic demystification of capitalism; it also flows from his insistence that capitalism cannot generate the conditions for human flourishing. He never equated material well-being with happiness, but he knew that there can be no happiness WITHOUT material well-being. The crime of capitalism is that it forces the vast majority of the population to remain preoccupied with basic concerns of nutrition, housing, health, and skill acquisition. It leaves little time for fostering community and creativity that humans crave. And the injustice of capitalism is that it does so in an era of plenty. There are enough resources to ensure basic material satisfaction for all, but capital mandates that those resources do not benefit the great majority. Further, those same resources have been generated by the hard work of the population that is denied its benefits.

Thoughts on Deep Ecology?

Deep ecology is DGR bullshit, right? Yeah, primitivism is totes not cool. It's not even revolutionary, it's just unscientific barbarity; wishing the death of millions along with civilization and calling it progress.

The reason why anarchist and Marxist social analysis uses class position as an indicator of freedom is because people cannot be considered “liberated” when the material arrangement of their lives are insecure. Freedom has a fundamentally material basis: freedom means having control over the...

I can’t wait for the next election year when all the self-professed socialists, anarchists, and radicals on tumblr will urge everyone to vote for whoever the Democratic Party candidate is. 2012 was awesome

I don’t think you can understand social injustices without a coherent class analysis, because liberal social justice often views society as classless, with the only divisions being those of social identity. In that, there is this “public realm” where all classes mingle and are oppressed by identity, when in reality there is no “public” because class divisions don’t disappear in the public realm.

The truth of the matter is that—by an exorbitant paradox—I never stop believing that I am loved. I hallucinate what I desire. Each wound proceeds less from a doubt than from a betrayal: for only the one who loves can betray, only the one who believes himself loved can be jealous: that the other, episodically, should fail in his being, which is to love me —that is the origin of all my woes. A delirium, however, does not exist unless one wakens from it(there are only retrospective deliriums): one day, I realize what has happened to me: I thought I was suffering from not being loved, and yet it is because I thought I was loved that I was suffering; I lived in the complication of supposing myself simultaneously loved and abandoned. Anyone hearing my intimate language would have had to exclaim, as of a difficult child: But after all, what does he want?

The American collegiate system in one gif set

(this is what i mean when i’m sayin that the sections of the working class that went to college see themselves as entitled to entry into the bourgeoisie and is thus thoroughly unrevolutionary)

After watching all the "You know you're Filipino when.." videos on Youtube, I suddenly stumbled upon this ongoing and decades long debate on FOBs and whitewashed Filipinos abroad (especially in the US). And distinguishing them from "real" Filipinos or whatnot. I'd love to step in but man, there's no easy single way to define a Filipino but from their experience with Filipino cultural identity. Ethnicity and whatnot are all mostly pretty blurred and mixed up, unless we talk about indigenous tribes in the Philippines, and they are very different from what most folks from the cities would call "Filipino culture"
