    It is so frustrating to argue with libs who make arguments so old that literally Marx himself responded to them. I get the impression that Marxists already won the debate back in the 19th century and the liberal tactic has just been to pretend the debate has never happened, to continue repeating centuries-old arguments over and over again as if they’ve never been responded to, and to discourage anyone from looking into Marxism or reading Marx, Lenin, Mao, etc.

      This was also noticed by Marx when he analysed the trend in contemporary economics, but he meant not himself but generally LTV, so incredibly uncomfortable for capitalists that their pet economists made a step back and started to circle like shit in airhole.
