@ggreenwald Yes all those Dems who claimed they were in danger of being herded into camps under Trump do not seem to have fled in fear. I guess because they know it is only they who can step up and resistance the coming Fascist tide. LOL

@elfgirltalia I am sociologist and a vipassana mediator so yeah there is no authentic self - it produced socially. If you look at any psychology textbook there's always a chapter on "personality" which defines it as "its what these personality theorists say it is" (even tho they don't agree.

@bitesizedariel Hi

@Jairo_I_Funez @QAmity Well it was 1950s France and BSWM is an unusual book. Maybe outright rejection is preferable to the postmodern Fanon who is welcomed in the Academy but only on terms completely out of synch with his politics

@TheDemocrats @jricole What a pity you waited till you lost control of the house before putting all these bills

@SublationMedia Its not reactionary or progressive. Satire (like humour) is disguised aggression so it depends on who its directed at.

[Shane Hopkinson PhD @ShaneHopkinson]

@MarxinHell @r_bellofiore I guess we have Hans Ehrbars interlinear edition that goes someway to this

Aimé Césaire's brief "Discourse on Colonialism", published in the 1950s, is one of the most powerful and necessary texts you will ever encounter. This passage in particular has remained with me since I first read the book almost twenty years ago:

@F_Allisson @unil Sounds like a great paper is there a recording of the presentation or copy of the conference proceedings?

[Shane Hopkinson PhD @ShaneHopkinson]

@MarxinHell So where did we get to with this?

[Marcello Musto @MarMusto]

Yesterday my friend Paresh Chattopadhyay, author of dozens of important contributions on Marx and Marxisms, passed away.
He was a rigorous Marxologist, whose authority was recognized worldwide.
His books represented an important contribution to the Marx Revival of recent years.

G.M. Tamas, who was one of the greatest living Marxist theorists, passed away yesterday. I append below the powerful concluding to passage to his best known work:
