@GbombM75819 I tend to agree with Gerry Cohen, in his 'Karl Marx's Theory of History, A Defence' - minus his functionalism and his technological determinism - corrected by Alex Callinicos in his 'Making History' (2nd ed). Can't really say much more on X.
@GbombM75819 Yes, and that is becasue Dialectical Marxists look to traditional philosophy for theoretical guidance, which, as Hegel himself noted, is all idealist. You can find my reasoning in the last link I sent you, Sections (5) and (11): https://t.co/2iSbbJwONC
Young refuseniks burn their IDF draft papers in the middle of Tel Aviv in Israel
They refuse to serve in the Israeli Forces to kill children in Palestine and Lebanon and are willing to go to military jail for their position
@GbombM75819 I mean what I say: I accept Historical Materialism [HM] with every trace of Hegel excised. HM is a scientific theory. Dialectical Materialism is a confused and incoherent mess. Check this out for a summary of my reasons why: https://t.co/2iSbbJwONC
@GbombM75819 The aim of my site isn't to go into materialsm (but I state at the beginning of all my Essays that I fully accept Historical Materialism), but to demolish Dialectical Materialism. Nothing more.
