@ecotechblogger Idk Walmart Amazon and Anthropic pollute and waste more than this bonfire does in a fraction of the second. Walmart and Amazon probably waste more pallets every second of every day than are in this bonfire.
Such a waste of energy to attack people just trying to enjoy something.
@Lavenderchist@Anarchist_Ryte Yeah because calling my opponents "yuppies", "irrational", or other pejoratives every paragraph and conflating them all in a published book is the same as saying "Bookchin had one bad book. It was intellectually lazy and a bad critique of individualist anarchism" on twitter.
I agree that Nihilist Anarchism is half baked, lacking in solutions, and not something I'd support. I think using the term Lifestyle Anarchist and utilizing Bookchin's related book to critique it really does a disservice to your argument. Social or Lifestyle was a really bad book
@Anarchist_Ryte Damn really pissed you off with that one huh? Chomsky lost to Foucault and not even because foucault said anything relatively biting. Chomsky straight up went in there so mad he said nothing of substance and couldn't go off script.
@Anarchist_Ryte Nah it's a screed at best hardly anything insightful. Very old man yells at cloud. He lumps pretty much anything he doesn't like under one term and critiques it which completely undermines his position because his critiques don't land against such varied and different boogeymen
Noam Chomsky and Bookchin wrote good material until both of them became old angry men who were obsessed with their respective boogeymen and couldn't do anything but cope and seethe about it until they died.
my sister asked me to explain what capitalism is and while i was giving a simplistic definition my dad interrupted and told her that capitalism is the “democratisation of the means of production”
@maninpeakedcap@TheLucyShow1 You genuinely have to be stupid to not see the def cap is completely off and hanging by the cord while she fills the clearly not diesel pump sized hole.
This kind of analysis is all to frequent amongst Marxists. Not able to acknowledge the social or the abstract. Everything must be able to be put under a microscope and analyzed. Everything must be "material" which is essentially whatever they choose to think is important.
