So is it ultimately down to electromagnetic attraction on the microscopic scale?

[-] Vampire@hexbear.net 0 points 3 days ago

I've always wondered this too.

It's interesting to read manifestos and stuff from the French Revolution; people like the Jacobins were fighting as much against the Church as the aristocracy.

Christianity has historically been a way of extracting rent for the church, and atheism therefore has been associated with left-wing movements that wanted to strangle kings with the entrails of priests and whatnot.

fascism requires the notion that everyone who isn't part of the master race should be massacred

That's Nazism. Fascism is the Mussolini thing.

Explain the bookclub: We are reading Volumes 1, 2, and 3 in one year and discussing it in weekly threads. (Volume IV, often published under the title Theories of Surplus Value, will not be included in this particular reading club, but comrades are encouraged to do other solo and collaborative reading.) This bookclub will repeat yearly.

I'll post the readings at the start of each week and @mention anybody interested. Let me know if you want to be added or removed.


Just joining us? You can use the archives below to help you reading up to where the group is. There is another reading group on a different schedule at https://lemmygrad.ml/c/genzhou (federated at !genzhou@lemmygrad.ml ) which may fit your schedule better. The idea is for the bookclub to repeat annually, so there's always next year.

Ok so I was offline all last week.

I posted post number 42 here today, a week late – https://hexbear.net/post/3733064 – so we have the chunk carved out for next year's round.

The good news is we are considerably ahead of the curve. If you have to do Week 42 and Week 43 this week because I was offline, that's about 78 pages, not 2 full weeks really.

Explain the bookclub: We are reading Volumes 1, 2, and 3 in one year and discussing it in weekly threads. (Volume IV, often published under the title Theories of Surplus Value, will not be included in this particular reading club, but comrades are encouraged to do other solo and collaborative reading.)
