Comments on Not For Althusser

There's a fourth part of the brain which is singly adapted to the storage and recall of celebrity photographs. Your pre-internet philosophers were educated stupid.

There's also a fifth part of the brain that controls selection of weather-appropriate outerwear, the goretexcortex.

Who's Marx?

My God Charles...can I hire you as an interperator when my fiance starts spouting off about his beloved french philosophers? I might have a chance of understanding something he is trying, very poorly, to express to me then.

It seems to me that history has proven again and again that Marxism in the real world leads to brutality and poverty of the worst sort.

Sixth part of the brain is all about pudding, velvet sack suits, and jacking it.

As opossed to capatilism pj? Slave states these days are poorer than anything ever before. The Market has not delivered salvation to the millions of slum dwelers world wide. Some of us (US, Europe, and some of Asia) are living well, but not all the subjects of capatilism.

What states did in the east was merely use Marxism as way to justify totalitarian states. Stalin was never a Marxist. I highly doubt he ever read.

Glad you're keeping busy!

PJ @5, following up on SeMe @7: that's because you're confusing Marxist analysis (social science) with political structures that claim Marx. Marxist analysis of the Soviet and Chinese states is, if anything, more scathing than anything produced by western liberalism.
