the debate's starting now guys starting
right now
um okay kept this guy waiting for like
three hours today but we're here now
so yeah i'll meet your mic whenever
technical difficulties return hello
and hello
hello
hello
hello
i can hear you right now yeah i can hear
you now
that's fine this one
sent me yeah and uh
there are a few things that i found
interesting about your economics
sure what do you mean when you say that
innovation isn't something hap forgive
me if i'm
wrong what do you mean that innovation
isn't something that happens
when uh on an individual level
innovation yeah i remember you
yeah talking about i think it's about
the midway point you were just talking
about how
technological the basic idea is that
there's some kind of more
fundamental social technological
cultural historical whatever
transformation that happens
some real change happens first and
individual brilliance only draws that
out
what is that thing that happens first
uh in marxism they call it a revolution
in the forces of production
okay do you have could you give an
example of
one do you have empirical evidence for
this
um i don't know what you mean by
empirical evidence but there's plenty of
examples i could give you i could give
you the example of how
you could argue that the steam engine
the invention of the steam engine
was just picking up the pieces of the
more broad
historical transformation that resulted
from
the english civil war this kind of
apocalyptic
social event there's the example of how
the rise
of computers for example followed world
war ii
uh world war ii the 1930s the new deal
that was this was a kind of fundamental
uh
social revolution so there's actually
plenty and plenty of examples uh
there's one that's happening right now
actually
there isn't a uh that all those that you
just listed that doesn't really
demonstrate
that individual brilliance is just
drawing on a greater
trend that doesn't actually follow from
that
okay uh go ahead explain my point is
that you haven't
met the burden of proof beginning you
haven't done
my point is that you haven't
demonstrated it in the first place how
they are related
you you haven't demonstrated in the well
of course i haven't gone into the
details of demonstrating that because
that would require like a way
that would require a lot more time to
explain like
exactly how right so i'm not sure what
you're looking for
well that would require a lot more
elaboration for me when you ask me to
explain how you haven't demonstrated it
when really
i'm just informed if you're not willing
to do it why would i be willing
by the way infrared i'm not going to
interrupt you if you don't interrupt me
so i think that cause
it's my show it's my show you don't have
leverage dude so let's not get it okay
i'm just saying if it would
would help but anyway
so when you say that every that
individual brilliance just draws in
something else are you saying
what are the conclusions that you draw
from that practically
you're the one who watched the video and
is raising this specific point to me so
you would have you have to contextualize
what i was trying to say in that video
i know i'm saying we both agreed you
mentioned that it requires a lot more
elaboration
and so you said that you didn't know
what you wanted what i wanted you to do
with that
so i'm advancing to just advance to the
praxis i'd like to talk about what
implications you draw from that view
then
what are your input i just answered you
it's within the specific context of
the practical implications as
demonstrated by the video being
that you have to think of a different
relationship
when you're thinking about capitalism
you have to have
a different concept of time than just
this kind of idea that
there's a linear advance in progression
of technology instead of that
it seems to be that there are different
cycles within capitalism
or within the history of modern
capitalism
that exhaust some kind of fundamental
upper limit
at which point uh upon this limit we see
some kind of uh revolution in the forces
of production the concept i'm drawing
this from by the way it's not just for
me it's called
they're called k waves contra day of uh
cycles are you familiar with these
no please elaborate let me see if i'm
pronouncing it right
punch punch ratio
on waves yeah and ratio waves
um they are uh you want me to read the
wikipedia for you or something
yes just explain how you're relating
them to your general argument that would
be they are hypothesized
cycle-like phenomena in the world
economy the phenomena is closely
connected with technology lifestyles
it is stated that the period of a wage
ranges from 40 to 60 years
the cycles consist of alternating
intervals of high
sectoral growth and intervals of
relatively slow growth
okay and these waves they are just
purely
trends or are they an actual physical
underlying physical phenomenon
purport to measure economic cycles
okay and uh any corresponding cultural
historical
social political uh changes
okay so back to what i was saying then
so when you say that individual
brilliance just draws on a greater trend
or something what
is a specific policy implication that
you would do into the future about that
because
so far you're just explaining ways wait
wait wait wait wait wait wait wait
you watched a few hours long you didn't
really
shut up shut up don't interrupt me you
watched a few hour long stream wait a
second
you watched
he said what's the policy implication
you're the one who watched a
few hour long stream you isolated a
specific
point i made that you find quite quaint
right
the idea basically that uh innovation is
not happening at the individual level
actually by the way
this was part of the more fundamental
point that the production of value
doesn't happen at the individual level
so this was actually the underlying
point this talk about
technology and all this other stuff
including art and culture
this was actually uh an ancillary detail
to this more broader and fundamental
point
about the nature of value okay this is
without the the context the implication
was basically that many marxists
have this idea that the individual input
of labor
okay is what produces value and that is
crystallized within the commodity i was
trying to rebuke this by saying
that actually value is not created
at the individual level value requires
a more uh distinct and dialectic view of
time
right not just this kind of uh input and
then output but
more this kind of realization of
something that in a sense already
happened
okay so when you when you when you ask
me what is the policy implication
of this it's a completely meaningless
question because policy was not the
point of that uh
lecture or that discussion i sent you
now if you don't like
that lecture in that discussion because
it doesn't um
tailor to the conversation you wanted to
have in mind which was about policy
don't isolate slip snippets out of
context from that specific lecture in
discussion because they have nothing to
[Β __Β ] do
with the argument you're trying to veer
it towards
well first of all what argument do you
think i was trying to veer it towards uh
the the praxis
implications about policy which is
completely irrelevant
okay so this theory of yours my point
what okay so what's your point then of
the theories first of all
i also noticed that you never really
defined value
in the lecture we please define value
do i need to define value yes we please
define value
value is alienated and abstract
labor that's the marxist view
okay so what is surplus value then
that's alienated
abstract labor that we please explain
what that is
because okay i'll explain it do you want
me to explain it
values explain your view of surprise
value necessarily acquires form
in the form of prices right
it's measured through price through
money right
the reason there's surplus value is
because the nature of value
um forces us to recognize it
as something that exists in access to
the form
it takes on in the form of price in
other words there is an excess of value
over the form it takes
okay and how can you demonstrate that
what do you mean well it seems
since you demonstrated in the form of
the production of
i wasn't finished yet i'm gonna answer
your question i don't give a [Β __Β ] if
you're not finished
you demonstrated in the form of the
production of wealth wealth that didn't
exist before
now exists that's how it's demonstrated
yeah but
but you can't really quantify it that
well so whenever you encounter a
situation where someone says well
there's really is no demonstration of
abstract
labor here in this assessment of value
do you know what abstract labor
seems to be i don't think you know what
abstract labor is do you know what it is
please define that then if you don't
think i know what it is you know what it
is
i'm asking you well first of all i just
said
my point is that it doesn't really seem
that your idea of
value can be falsified okay but before
we talk about
uh falsification which is a bankrupt uh
concept in the philosophy of science and
within epistemology no one actually
believes in it unironically in the 21st
century
but before we have a discussion about
falsifiability
my question for you is you claim you're
making a lot of claims about
my views of abstract laboratory so i'm
asking you what abstract labor is what
do i mean by abstract labor since you
know
you probably have some you probably have
some specialized definition of abstract
label so i'm just asking you to define
why i have one right is my concept of
abstract labor actually just the same
one that marx had and pretty much all
marxists
have had since marx and is pretty
commonplace among marxists
i don't think you've done your homework
okay so please detail it
quickly then because again but you don't
know what it is why should i give you a
free tutoring lesson as an educator
when you're the burden of proof is upon
you to demonstrate you know the concepts
you're talking about
uh actually no not really because i
asked you what your
conception of it is so but you but you
jumped ahead and made a value
judgment about that very concept you
didn't just say you don't know what it
is
you said that uh to quote ad verbatim
from what i remember you said
well abstract what you're it seems like
what you're saying about abstract labor
can't be demonstrated well how can you
know it can't be demonstrated if you
don't even know what the concept of
abstract labor is
because i don't who know precisely how
you're using it and
i just gave it how how are how can you
make a judgment
shut your [Β __Β ] [Β __Β ] mouth up this is
my show
how can you make a judgment
about the demonstrability of abstract
labor
if you don't know what the concept
actually is you made a positive judgment
saying that it is not demonstrable or
that it's not falsifiable
you made a loaded judgment about the
concept
without knowing what the [Β __Β ] it is and
by the way you [Β __Β ] idiot what i'm
trying to tell you this
because what you don't seem to be
understanding is that abstract labor
doesn't require any so-called empirical
justification
because as a concept it's almost
tautological it's not meant to introduce
some kind of new empirical reality we
aren't familiar with
it's trying to actually allow us to
understand the empirical reality we can
already observe
in a new and better way my point is that
i have
are you aware for example first first of
all we have a lot of philosophical
problems i'm detecting on your part
you seem to be stuck in this savage
barbaric
and primitive pre-kantian philosophical
universe
where all statements we make about
reality and all statements we make in
general
have to be validated and verified by the
criterion of empirical proof
this is such a philosophically backward
and primitive view
it is not even worthy of my time
you are not aware of kant's revolution
in the in the modern philosophy
you're not aware about the fact that not
every concept
that is within the uh that with which we
use to engage with reality
has to directly be empirical empirically
verified
okay so first of all i'm trying to
explain to you
why do you understand kantian critical
method do you understand what criticism
is it's the foundation of marx's
approach
in capital criticism do you know what
that is
infrared one thing at a time please i'm
trying to explain
you just [Β __Β ] out an octopus with so
many tentacles
and now we have to go through each
tentacle one by one
you keep getting you you just you asked
me you addressed one
point at a time infrared but okay go
ahead go ahead go ahead
okay so first of all the reason i said
that it seems a bit unfalsifiable the
service but i'm trying to get a better
idea of what you're saying because again
are you asking for an education or do
you want a debate i wasn't finished yet
infrared
what's so important you wanted to say go
ahead what's so important yeah go ahead
because for all i know you may have a
certain con
a certain conception of abstract labor
value that may be different from marx
but you may not know it so my point is
that we can go back and forth with that
so my point is that i'm just trying to
find out what it is
i had if i had a concept of abstract
labor you weren't familiar with you
would just say
i'm not i didn't know i don't know what
you meant by abstract labor that is not
what you said electricity
what you [Β __Β ] told me is that this
concept of abstract labor cannot be
demonstrated or is unfalsifiable
you see the difference we've been over
this so i should have interrupted you
because you didn't actually say anything
that's worth anyone's time i already
heard your [Β __Β ] argument here
that's why i interrupted you you see why
you see the pattern of why i'm
interrupting you because you're wasting
my [Β __Β ] time
you're not saying anything new you're
just saying the same [Β __Β ] you said
before
i'm trying to advance the conversation
what about the concept of abstract labor
makes it uh incapable of being
demonstrated in reality well
first of all i don't quite know what it
is so shut the [Β __Β ] up and don't say it
can't be demonstrated then
can we agree on that can we agree you
were wrong for saying it can't be
demonstrated
okay i concede will you please
now will you please explain what it is
explain abstract labor to you
yes just a quick definition okay let's
just google it so i can give you a one
sentence thing
here's the wikipedia um
okay there's not anything one there's
not anything
simple let me see if i can find a simple
sentence for you that i could read to
you
nope
are you still looking for it i'm not
watching the stream because of the delay
um i think i'm gonna have to put it into
my own words because i can't find
anything that's gonna be uh
useful to you all right well the idea of
abstract labor is basically this idea
that labor undergoes something called
socialization
which is basically which basically means
that despite the wealth of differences
between individuals
and the different you know things that
are going on in their individual
exertion of work
labor acquires an abstraction it
requires the quality of abstraction
so far as the uh its um
its cost is concerned in the form of
wages that
equalizes all labor basically as the
same this is actually how do you
how do you measure it what do you mean
how do you measure it
how do you measure it measure what
measure the quantities of
labor yes how do you measure it
you measure it in the form of the price
of labor
the price of labor okay can you point is
that
actual prices that you see in real life
are you talking about more abstract
sense of price of labor like could you
give an example of the labor value of
a good what do you mean
can you give an example labor value
now okay the conceptual significance of
value
arises in reality not when we point at a
empirical object and say that is value
it uh
arises in reality in the form of a
contradiction so in this case in marx's
case it arises in the form between the
contradiction between value and price
despite the fact that value doesn't take
a form
outside of its form in the form of price
it still exerts its contradictory nature
in relation to price in the form of
contradictions what does that mean
what do you mean in the form of
contradictions in the form of
contradictions uh
such as uh capitalist crisis
will you explain that really quickly oh
my god so this is another debate where
i'm basically just educating you right
infrared i'm asking you to explain it
because if you don't
you can change the definition later so i
think what you're talking about is over
production at what point are you gonna
make are you gonna make a rebuttal and
actually [Β __Β ] debate me you don't
know
listen if you know anything about
marxism you don't have to rely on my
personal definitions you should rely on
what you know about marxism
and whether what you know about marxism
is correct or false we'll see
but you should if you're gonna come to
baby about marxist economics
you should [Β __Β ] know what abstract
labor is and you should [Β __Β ] know the
answer to all of these questions you're
asking me
such as uh what is capitalist crisis
what is the falling rate of pride you
should know all of these
marxism 101 economic concepts you came
to me as an uneducated [Β __Β ] idiot
asking me for free tutoring lessons like
all the other people who've come to
challenge me to debate by the way
so please be the exception okay do you
know anything about marxist economics
i was trying to ask you because i think
you were talking about overproduction
is that what you meant by the capitalist
crisis overproduction the falling rate
of profit yes there's various different
words for it
yes okay so you mentioned
again back to what i was talking about
when i asked you how you measured it you
alluded to
that so i don't quite see what case
you're trying to make when you're saying
you're assuming we can go no farther
than uh
philosophical empiricism insofar as we
want to engage
with reality scientifically this is a
primitive
outdated view which was outdated by many
decades in marx's time
himself not to mention our time in the
21st century
you see well infrared you're making a
lot of claims but you haven't really
shown that the aspects of reality that
you're alluding to
weren't consideration in the first place
so i don't see why you assume so
you're not you're not so much concerned
with
the conceptual value that uh of marxist
economic concepts
what you're concerned with is the direct
necessity
out of which these concepts arise from
basically why
must we believe they are true
okay so and second of all i wanted to
clarify the reason why i'm asking
answer my question because you're
starting a lot of philosophical
confusions
you're not asking me about the
conceptual consistency of marxism or
the abilities that marxism endows those
with and
being able to relate to reality what
you're asking me is
why should i believe in the the
significance and value of marx why do i
have to care about marxism
you know show me and measure me
something in reality
and that's why like that's not how it
works though do you see the issue
uh no you haven't really demonstrated
that
like you're like a [Β __Β ] idiot where
like if galileo made it
like show me the sun show me what the
earth looks like you know i'm saying
you're such a [Β __Β ] idiot like that
you're being lazy you're being
intellectually lazy
infrared another reason why i asked you
is because i watched yours
the entire linchpin of your position
here is empiricist
dogmatism every time you ask me about
something i said in the past you're
saying can you measure that
can you tell me that i'm telling you you
are resting upon a philosophical
foundation
that is outdated and completely uh
primitive
how is it primitive because kant's
revolution in the history of modern
philosophy
overturned the view that all the truth
values and all statements we make about
rally and all the different ways we
engage with reality have to be directly
measured in the form of empirical sense
objects that's why
well that i never made that assertion my
point but you did
why would you ask me to why would you
ask me
to measure abstract labor for you
if you didn't have this warped [Β __Β ]
[Β __Β ] view
that because if you can't measure it i'm
trying to find out how you can
demonstrate what
what it is so i can so i can recognize
it too
because if it's what that means but but
if you're asking me that
you're telling me you're not educated
about the subject matter
that you came to debate about today it's
not the case because
why would you debate over about a
subject matter you have no knowledge or
familiarity with
well infrared you're just telling me to
read theory basically i'm telling you
but you wanted to debate about it you
[Β __Β ] wanted to come debate about it
what
so you should know the bare minimum well
you're assuming that i have to take
certain things as
granted i'm assuming you have to know
marxism 101
to debate about marxism to email me to
come on into debate about marxism
you have to know marxism 101. why debate
about it then would you you came on so i
could give you free tutoring lessons
no infrared the reason why i keep asking
you is because
you seem to have created your own brand
i have a header an odd marxism that's
right
but you still have to have a
minimally familiar grasp of marxism 101
okay i'll make it very simple i don't
think sir
you exist how will you prove me wrong
what do you mean how will i prove you
wrong i don't think surplus value exists
you're free you're free you are free to
believe
that it doesn't exist but those of us
who do find value in the concept of
surplus value
will be able to have a more insightful
uh grasp of reality than you are okay
how how do you have a more insightful
grasp of reality
how do you explain capitalist crisis
okay well first of all the
overproduction that's not empirically
demonstrated but it's an empirical claim
so no there
there is wait wait wait wait wait how is
overproduction not empirically
demonstrated
because it's a theoretical framework
that you apply
to recessions when you examine them but
how is that how is that not
what happens but if you actually examine
the causes of economic bubbles
and recessions none of it has to do with
overproduction
why is that go ahead there's no
empirical evidence that has to do with
overproduction
wait wait wait you didn't say there's no
empirical evidence
that it has to do with overproduction
you said it has nothing to do with
overproduction i'm asking you how you
know that i did say that there's no
empirical evidence that has to do with
overproduction
okay and what it does have to do with
their various studies for example in
experimental markets
bubbles still form crashes still happen
it has to do with well i want you to
qualify the significance of that
statement what does
experimental markets have to do with it
my point
i'm trying to explain to you that the
causes of economic bubbles and
recessions yeah i'm asking you to
explain that you haven't explained it
yet
infrared because i'm trying to go ahead
keep it going
the floor is yours say it my point is
that there are lots of suggested causes
for
bubbles and recessions and depression
but there but there's no substantiation
for over production
bubbles according to even in
experimental markets which the reason
why i bring that up is because if you
simplify
it they still arrive even in
experimental markets with people
educated in economics
they still happen what does that mean
experimental markets
can you explain that an experimental
market
is used in economic studies where you
just create a market
of just a few people and sort of
simulate it
and it just does it's just done to
simplify it and create
idealized versions of sure markets
and recessions still happen in those
what
recessions still happen in those
experimental markets
yes so how does this disprove over the
crisis of overproduction
because there's no there's no empirical
evidence that overproduction was a cause
or even an
issue but marx never said overproduction
is a cause of anything
he said overproduction happens during
capitalist crisis it corresponds to
capitalist christ he didn't speak
about a cause the cause itself being
overproductive i know i'm asking for
empirical evidence of overproduction
you're asking for empirical evidence of
the phenomena of overproduction
yes and okay here's the kicker do you
know what over production is
what do you know what overproduction is
seems pretty straightforward yes
go ahead and explain i think you may
have a different notion of it given that
you okay okay i'm a heterodox marxist i
want to hear your
view of overproduction
i believe correct me if i'm wrong but
i'm pretty sure that over production is
that
in boom times more commodities are
created than are actually
than uh are actually needed something
like that my memory of it is a bit hazy
so will you please
explain it really quickly so you don't
know what it is
uh you just made a whole lot of [Β __Β ]
claims about how
overproduction can't be demonstrated and
you don't even know what it is
because i have a basic mem memory of it
i know how it relates to other concepts
but as for the concrete definition here
let's look it up
i'm not asking for i'm asking for what
is this thing you are saying cannot be
demonstrated simple as that
there's no demonstration that
overproduction the capitalist crisis
that you talk about when you talk about
so capitalist crisis doesn't happen
capital crisis doesn't happen capitalist
crisis doesn't happen
you're talking about recessions and
depressions yes those do happen
but the marxist interpretation is not
substantiated empirically
it is why why not because there's no
empirical evidence of it
what would qualify as empirical evidence
in your view if for it to be true
well you need to define it and then
say what you just said there is no
empirical evidence for it
so qualify what would constitute
empirical evidence for
it let's forget about the definition of
it if you don't know what it
is don't [Β __Β ] talk about it it's
simple well you haven't demonstrated
that you know what it is either because
when i asked you earlier
listen listen you [Β __Β ] idiot even if
i didn't know what it is
which is laughable even if i didn't know
what it is
you are the one making the claim that it
cannot be demonstrated
you don't know what you're talking about
you claim that it exists
which is an empirical claim now i want
you to
pretend that i'm not making any positive
claims i'm just asking you to
back up what you're saying you are
saying that it cannot be demonstrated
what it is what is it that cannot be
demonstrated
and what would in your mind qualify as
proof
that it is demonstrated what would make
it demonstrable
well first of all the thing that is
laughable about this is that you're
asking me what it
is when you won't even explain what that
they're eating because you're
asking because i'm not the one making
claims about them
if i for example if i said for example
that overproduction right if i started
talking about overproduction you said
what is overproduction
then the burden of me would be to
explain it to you right
but you're the one who said it can't be
demonstrated i didn't say anything about
it
my point is is that overproduction in
marxist
theory as i've tried npc please
repeat that it cannot be demonstrated
without actually
um proving that you even know what it
what it is which cannot be demonstrated
and what your qualifications
for its demonstration what it would be
exactly go ahead burden is on you
infrared because no it's not dude listen
this is what happens when i when people
come onto the baby who don't understand
logic do you you don't understand logic
logically the burden of proof is not
upon me to explain to you anything
because you made a
truth statement you made a value
statement you made a truth statement
right you want to talk about logic you
said
the marxist view cannot be proven in
reality as
cannot be substantiated i'm
since it cannot be substantiated first
of all
what it what is it which can't be
substantiated what are you looking for
to judge as being substantiated or not
substantiated
second of all what would constitute in
your view
its substantiation well
infrared as i was saying when i told you
talk to you about the experimental
markets and how recessions and
depression still happen let's go there
there's no production at all in
experimental markets
so but that's even but that's even
better
to prove the [Β __Β ] point how does that
demonstrate that overproduction is the
cause of booms
and busts you really want to know how do
you really want to know how
how it's because you don't [Β __Β ] know
what overproduction actually is you ever
thought of that you won't you refuse to
explain it
and i do know what it is then what is it
what is it marks this theory roughly
please correct me if i'm wrong but
overproduction is what causes recessions
and depressions that too many goods are
produced
and then eventually that results in a
bust is that correct why why would too
many goods being produced result in a
bust
isn't that what your definition of
overproduction is is that
what are you talking about you keep
money i'm talking about
what it is all of our production cannot
be proven because in experimental
markets when there's no production at
all there's still recessions therefore
overproduction is disproven i don't
really know what overproduction is guys
i never said that that disproved it i'm
just giving you evidence for why it is
an inadequate explanation
but you don't know what it is do you
actually think
so you actually think according to you
you wanted to come debate about marxism
right
and you think the marxist concept of
overproduction is basically when
too many goods are being produced and
for some mysterious reason this causes a
recession
this is the marxist view in your mind no
i simply so what is the view what is the
mark
well first of all why is there over
production
what why is there over production
because of you in the markets
because of systemic weaknesses of
capitalism i'm pretty sure
that's a vague meaningless phrase why do
marxists
why do monsters say overproduction
happens how do they explain the
overproduction that actually does happen
it there is overproduction marxists have
a way of explaining why it happens why
does it happen
yeah and the way of explaining it is
incoherent which is why i'm unable to
why is it
okay then how do they explain it which
is so incoherent
i just told you that that's why i'm
unable to remember it because it's so
incoherent
now could you what do you think about
this can you [Β __Β ] believe this
he's making all of these claims and he
doesn't know what he's talking about
what am i supposed to do with you here
you really want an education
you could just explain you kind of i
could just explain to you the fact
that overproduction is not the cause of
crisis overproduction is the symptom of
the crisis there's reason there's an
overproduction
is because capitalists necessarily have
to
drive the price of commodities
below their actually va their value and
part of doing that and when they do that
they have to make a profit so they have
to produce more
for less to make the same rate of return
that they did before
that's why there's over production
overproduction in and of itself is not
the cause of anything
overproduction is a symptom of the fact
that capitalists
need to continually reap a higher return
rate of profit and have to squeeze out
the extent of the value that is
crystallized within the commodities
they're selling
so far by through technology as an
example reducing costs in the form of
technology for example
in the form of producing more for less
money for example
but at a certain point at a certain
point there's a falling rate of profit
that's the [Β __Β ] point of why there's
a recession in the marxist view
okay good now i remember so i gave you
an education i
i had to give you an education about
marxism 101.
because you were stumbling and [Β __Β ]
mumbling you didn't even know what
overproduction meant
you literally thought overproduction is
when capitalists produce too much goods
then society needs
that's really not what it is though and
so so now we can go to the experimental
market example and why the experimental
market example
in no way uh renders the concept of over
production inadequate or capitalist
crisis inadequate because
if there's if there's no production at
all that means no value is being created
no value was created at all so in the
first place the
the source of actual growth the source
of consistent rates of growth and profit
is completely gone
in an experimental setting so that's an
even better exam that doesn't
disprove or render inadequate any
concept
you see why i said you don't know what
the [Β __Β ] you're talking about
infrared here's the problem you
mentioned
that you could not however he's going to
interrupt me how old are you
you mentioned how old are you your age
20 anyway jesus
and infrared you mentioned earlier in
your explanation for it which is why i
wanted you to explain it
you mentioned that the reason for the
overproduction is just the symptoms
because
capitalists have to drive the price of
commodities below their actual value but
here's the thing
if you can't quantify abstract labor
value you can't know if the
price is below it then then because you
don't understand what value is you're
clearly incapable of understanding
value can listen okay let's go
let's break down the concept no infrared
shut up
shut your [Β __Β ] mouth labor shut up
shut your [Β __Β ] mouth
no if you can't measure the [Β __Β ] up shut
the [Β __Β ] up we're going down to the
concepts
we're going down to the concepts why
can't
value be quantified because the form of
value is
price it's money that's the form of
value okay
so if the value in order for something
to be quantified
it has to be a form how can you quantify
that there's
there's one something right there's one
two three four five
six of one thing this thing has to be a
form
it has to be formalized and it has to be
some kind of
self same form and that there is one of
this
two of this three of this right you
cannot quantify
value because the form value takes
is the price
there is a contradiction between price
and value is the same reason there's a
contradiction between form and content
the content out of which arises form
enters into contradiction with that fame
series form
and vice versa form enters into
contradiction
with the content out of which it has
arisen this is the dialectic materialist
view
in general exactly which is why your
formulation of the capitalist crisis
doesn't make sense
because here's what you said if the if
the crisis is due to capitalists
needing to push the prices of
commodities under their actual value
which
is some sort of abstract let's not
obscure this you're obfuscating
that's all i'm saying they need to make
a profit
that when you say that that comes from
them having to push the prices lower
than what the actual value is
why do they have to do that well why do
they have to do that why do they have to
do that
my point is is that you can't that if
you can't quantify it you can't
demonstrate that yes
alacrity i don't know how to [Β __Β ] say
your name yes you can because you're not
answering my
question why you don't know
why i said why would the abstract labor
process
[Β __Β ] ass want me to meet you do you
want me to meet you do you want to be
muted
then shut the [Β __Β ] up daddy's speaking
you understand i'm the educated one here
i'm the teacher you're the student
you shut up and listen to me clearly not
the reason why capitalists
have to drive the price below the value
is not for some mysterious enigmatic
reason pertaining to value
shut up you're missing shut up shut up
shut up the point is understanding what
i'm saying
i don't care what you're saying shut
your [Β __Β ] mouth well you don't grasp
what i'm
muting his [Β __Β ] ass so i can explain he
said he's getting one thing
muted no one can hear you you're muted
so i muted him this kid the audacity
now i'll explain it it's competition
capitalists have to make a profit but
you in order to squeeze out a profit
margin
from your cost of production to the
maximum extent
possible and necessary that alone
requires you to const in order to keep
squeezing out
a return of profit relative to what you
put in before
at a certain point you have to drive
down your costs
you have to drive down your costs the
first form of that is technological
revolutions divorce production that cut
costs
the second form is producing more
for less money okay and competitive
pressures force capitalist to do that
because he's selling it for it i have to
sell it lower and you
and i'm selling it lower but i still
have to make a return so i have to make
more to make up for it
that's the source of the overproduction
and in this process
what ends up happening is that
prices eventually fall below
or equate which is the same thing
to their value there's no more surplus
value it becomes
lower even than its actual value
that was why i said capitalists have to
push price below its value
now i'll unmute him
can you hear me yeah okay can everyone
else hear me
yeah everyone can hear you okay
quickly yeah when you say that they have
to push the value
below the value you're talking about the
abstract labor value
yeah you cannot substantiate that claim
because you can't measure it
you cannot measure abstract labor value
you can only measure prices
but what you're talking about but the
concept of value
the concept of value arises from a
a perceived or recognized
contradiction in reality
value cannot be quantified because the
concept of value arises
as a result of contradictions in its
form
so when you're asking to quantify when
you're asking to quantify
val good value does not make some
consciousness
doing that when you say that the prices
are below the value you
need to know what the value is to be
able to say that the prices are below
it which you can't do and you admit it
did not be value
value is nothing more so far as we are
concerned with something that can be
formally quantified
then price you can't say that the prices
that you have no yes i can say that i
can say
that capitalists no longer make a profit
they lose profit the source of profit is
exhausted it's saying the same thing
whatever that source of profit is it
runs out
okay do you have empirical evidence for
that yes
in the form as noted by marx in periodic
capitalist crisis okay you have a debt
that's the connection you have not
demonstrated
why not because for recessions and
depressions that is not demonstrated to
be the cause
why not the long depression in england
and marx's view vindicated yeah
but he didn't demonstrate how it did why
okay okay then my question is what would
qualify as a demonstration here in your
mind
of this well first of all i don't since
you can't really quantify abstract labor
value i'm not sure if you can
demonstrate so if it can't be
demonstrated
why even bring up that it's not
demonstrated why don't you just return
to your real philosophical uh foundation
of dogmatic empiricism
and pop aryan falsifiability let's
debate about that
because this isn't about some kind of uh
plain spoken argument about what's true
and what's not true
it's a philosophical dispute because you
have dogmatic
unexamined philosophical assumptions
why do you assume that they're dogmatic
what do you how are they dogmatic
because you think that the value of a
concept can only be measured in the form
of its empirical quantification or well
you already
accept that when you say that prices are
below the value
how do i how how
because if you are able to say that a
price a quantity is below
another quantity yeah you are thinking
that abstract labor value but i never i
didn't qualify value as a quantity now
did i
did implicitly because when you said
that the prices are being
pushed below that the abstract label
when you're saying that the prices need
to be pushed below that you're already
implicitly conceding that you need to
quantify it otherwise you have no
grounds for saying that the prices are
below it
no because i don't need to quantify
value to say the price is below value
it's value yes you do no i don't you
can't just say that there's value and
say that something's below it without
being able to quantify
what value is why not because
how do you know if it's below it or
above it
the reason i know it's below it is
because the source of generating profit
is gone price goes below
what is necessary to generate profit
that is all i need to
say to make the claim that it goes below
its value because you don't know what
value is you
you keep operating under this assumption
that value is a form but the form of
value is price
itself so when i'm saying it goes below
value i'm saying the price
qua price is unable to return profit
okay that's what it means for it to go
over you just don't
understand the concept of value no
you haven't explained what it is because
you can't even demonstrate even if
even if the reason why you don't
understand value is because i haven't
explained it to you
why don't you shut your [Β __Β ] mouth
and stop making claims about it
stop making claims about value when
clearly this rests upon
the fact that you just don't know what
it is infrared you can't say that
something is below something else
without being able to
explained it to you so many times
do you not understand that i can say the
price falls below the value
if i'm qualifying value as something
that whose form is only price itself
it's the ability for price to generate
profit that's value you don't know what
the value
[Β __Β ] is that's come on my show do
you do how many times do i have to
repeat it
price it value it can be
[Β __Β ] measured qua price itself
okay price or the form of value
itself okay my point is that you can't
fault
value rests upon the difference
between content and form
do you not understand this if you just
don't get it
and you're not smart enough to get it
just say that
stop making this i know the point you're
trying to make you're trying to say
you're saying that price falls below
value but this implicitly assumes
that value must necessarily have a
quantity of its own in order for price
to be below that quantity
but value is nothing more than a
reference to the relationship
between price and profit see the issue
but that can't be the case because if
you're saying that the prices that exist
in reality are below
okay okay so so so so so if you're a cap
if you're a capitalist if you're a
capitalist
and you're not able to make a return on
your i wasn't finished yet
please finish you
my point is that when you say is that
when you say the lab track labor value
that's just borne out by price the
problem is is that
when you say that the prices that are
currently that currently exist
are below the labor value those are
those aren't actual prices i didn't say
labor value i said value
let's get it right i said value
yes but then you said that you can only
measure it by price it's only related to
price so
can only measure value in the form of
price you can only measure value in the
form of price
and how many times please please since
you've been paying so much attention
how many times shut up how many times
shut the [Β __Β ] up how many times
did i tell you that this conceptual
necessity of value arises from a
contradiction
internal through its form
you keep asserting it but you haven't
shown that it's true
do you even know what i'm trying to say
when i say that
yes and you haven't done what am i
trying to say
you said that value necessarily arises
conceptually from a contradiction
that stems from which i don't quite see
how you sound like
because you don't understand that the
contradiction in the form of value
form we see manifest in reality
in the form that we're talking about
which is capitalist crisis
if again price could account first if
price
itself by itself could account for its
own real content
there wouldn't be a [Β __Β ] crisis there
wouldn't be any crisis of overproduction
there wouldn't be a crisis uh the the
more capitalists sell goods
they would just keep making a profit
that's not what happens
there is some kind of source of the
value there is some kind of real content
behind the prices there has to be points
otherwise why can the prices not auto
generate eternal
profits by themselves that has nothing
to do with
yes it [Β __Β ] does you [Β __Β ] idiot it
doesn't
and here's why not because
it doesn't and here's why it's because
when you say
that the recessions and depressions are
evidence
of that that it it isn't you haven't
demonstrated like you're conflating
your ideas of value with actual prices
and then you say that actual prices are
what is valuation what is value
let's go ahead what is value
again what do i mean by value what do i
mean by value
you already explained it go ahead you
seem to understand what i'm trying to
say
because because you clearly do i mean
you know never mind the fact that i keep
having to repeat this dozens and dozens
and dozens of times
you clearly understand what i'm trying
to say right you haven't been able to
demonstrate it so you keep repeating
it i have not been able to say
something which you're smart enough to
understand that's what's going on here
there's no empirical evidence to link
your conceptions of value
he keeps going on with empirical
evidence
okay how many times do you want to play
this merry-go-round
it's bingo it's bingo he's got the
empirical evidence card which he didn't
address my rebuttal to
he's got the you're unable to
demonstrate he he didn't respond to my
rebuttal he got the
i don't know what value is he didn't
respond to my rebuttal he got the he got
the he
had to quantify value he didn't respond
to my bottle how many times is this
broken record
going to guys play bingo play bingo get
out some make a bingo board and play
bingo with what he's saying
infrared i did respond to it first of
all i asked you to explain
how for the first one i asked you to
explain how was primitive
which how was it okay you want to have
the philosophical discussion
yeah because i okay sure sure sure sure
so what was your problem with
falsification you i told you do you want
to talk about
kant's revolution in modern philosophy
or do you want to talk about the issues
of falsification
how about the issues of falsification as
analytic philosophers themselves later
demonstrated
falsification would render every single
major paradigm shift in scientific
discovery in the history of humanity
impossible to explain
the astronomical revolution was
ultimately unfalsifiable paradigm shifts
are not falsifiable you cannot falsify
a fundamental paradigm shift in the
history of natural and
uh other sciences
okay care to explain because that
doesn't really
you're not really character
falsifiability means this it means
when we make a proposition there has to
be a way
to disprove uh there has to be a way
for there to be some kind of stakes
empirically like if i put forward a
proposition
there has to there has to be the
possibility
that it's wrong no that's not yes it
[Β __Β ] is
the possibility must be there that it is
wrong
empirical verification will confirm if
it's true or wrong this is falsification
so if i say there's an invisible unicorn
on mars
since we have no way to verify or
falsify it it's unfalsifiable
because it's an invisible unicorn on
mars
okay then so granted that
why is it when i say that you're when i
said earlier towards the beginning
because
falsifiability is an outdated view in
the in the philosophy of science that's
why
thank you arm's been bad appreciate the
five
because it doesn't explain revolutions
in scientific knowledge
what does that even mean it means for
example
kepler or galileo's discoveries are
unfalsifiable
because though thank you black lennon
1918
guys i'm gonna have to skip your alerts
i'm so sorry i'm talking to this [Β __Β ]
[Β __Β ] right now so i have to skip the
alerts but thank you so much black
lennon
um the reason why is because
you cannot actually falsify paradigm
shifting scientific revolutions that's
not how they arise
galileo could not make the discoveries
he did
under the paradigm of falsification
darwinian evolution could not have been
that's why actually popper expressed
early reservations toward the scientific
validity of darwinian evolution because
it's not falsifiable
okay but eventually it became
falsifiable you do realize that right
that there is empirical evidence but the
problem but that does not account for
how darwin
is this is a coincidence then darwin was
apparently being unscientific
but only later it just turns out he was
confirmed right and the same thing is
true
same thing is true by the way for every
single revolution in sciences
the reason why i point out you're
conflating several different issues with
falsifiability
the reason why i pointed out the
abstract labor value is unfalsifiable
is because you can just it is as
unfalsifiable as darwinian
and natural selection it is as
unfalsifiable no it has the astronomical
revolutions
of the uh 16th and 17th centuries yes it
is
you're just wrong no i'm right it's just
as much unfalsified because guess what
marxism introduces in out ceres words
a new continent of knowledge it opens up
a new paradigm
in relationship to reality so yes you do
have to presuppose
this paradigm in order to intervene in
reality in the way
marxism makes possible that's true for
every single
major scientific revolution in the
history of mankind
no it isn't there yes it [Β __Β ] is it
is actually
falsifiability is a technocratic doesn't
make it true falsifiability is a
technocratic concept
which specifically applies can be
historicized to correspond to an era in
which
corporations have research paradigms
where there's
already a preset target of some kind
of verification falsification it doesn't
actually apply
to real historical revolutions in
scientific knowledge
again this is irrelevant to what i was
talking about when i write you don't
know anything about the philosophy of
science but just you freely use terms
like falsifiability like i give give a
[Β __Β ] about false fight
i wipe my [Β __Β ] ass with
falsifiability if you know anything
about the philosophy of science
you would know that falsifiability is
very outdated
infrared i'm trying to explain to you
first of all it's not outdated
yes it is it is yes it is it isn't it
literally is
it isn't you don't first of all you're
conflating issues
and second of all the reason why i bring
it up in relation to the abstract labor
values because
you can you know the uh look it up do
him quiet thesis
it isn't out do him quiet thesis look it
up right now
no they came after carl popper their
view is what gained popularity in
academia
okay which disproves false
do you consider consensus to be valuable
on its own
no okay anyway that's not what i was
saying you keep
diverting the conversation away so my
the reason why i brought up
falsifiability
why should i care about carl popper can
you falsify fossil biability itself
can you is the concept of falsification
falsifiable
is falsifiability as a concept
falsifiable
that's a malformed question is it or no
you can't say it's a malformed question
is it or not it is a malformed question
is it or not yes or no
it is yes or no
it or no is it falsifiable can you
empirically prove the concept of
falsification
yes or no again like i said it's yeah
oh no it doesn't really matter or no it
doesn't really
know
who believes in falsification is
falsification itself falsifiable
yes or no that's a malformation yes or
no
really yes or no it doesn't really make
sense or no
yes or no i'm trying to explain
yes or no i'm trying to explain or
no for the umpteenth time i'm trying yes
or no
for the um yes
yes or no it's falsification falsifiable
yes or no
i've tried to yes or no if you have to
choose one which one yes or no
first of all when you talk about
falsification it's not
what are you going to let me talk now
yes or no
for the umpteenth time it's not
something that it's a malformed question
i already have to presume
that it exists in a certain way that it
can be falsified it's a technique
so why can't i tell you the same thing
about marxism
well no because
here's the difference the problem with
when i mentioned
the entire reason why i brought up
falsifiability
is because you cannot really falsify
your notions of labor right but you
can't quali you can't falsify the notion
of falsifiability itself
i'm not finished yet infrared
i'm not finished yet anyway as i was
saying the difference is
is that when you bring up things like
surplus value or labor value
yeah you can't really falsify them yeah
you're using them
to make appear why should i care about
falsification
because you're using them to make
empirical claims about reality which
aren't true which empirical claims
am i saying that by merit of blank
empirical reality alone you have to
believe in these
well that is kind of what you know it's
not what i'm saying i never said that
you have to use some criticism too you
have to have a critical
you have to engage in the critical use
of thought you can't just blankly be
impressed by
phenomenal or empirical sense
impressions
that's not by the way the whole point of
kant by the way
is that you cannot actually have a
coherent human experience
based on empirical reality alone in the
first place
again as i was saying you are completing
different issues my point
of bringing up falsifiability please
respond to that i just said
you keep interrupting me so i can't make
my point
the reason why i bring it up is because
when you talk about things like labor
valued surplus value
and then talk about the capitalist
crisis and how that's evidence of it it
isn't
because you can just say whatever it is
as you say you just say that
okay wait wait so is
what's evidence of darwinian natural
selection
again what is evidence of darwinian
natural selection
i'm trying to demonstrate this give me
an example one example of that
from the beginning one example of
evidence you [Β __Β ] weasel
just one well first of all you need to
talk
you need to be much more specific when
you're talking about evidence for that
there's plenty no i'm asking you for an
example of evidence that proves
darwinian natural selection
there's plenty of evidence like what
name one name one i gave you many of the
marxist [Β __Β ] so you give me one for that
different and here's why because when
you mentioned the capitalist
are you stupid just a question are you
stupid
yes or no
anyway yes or no yes or no right yes or
no
are you stupid no okay well that's
pretty
are you sounds pretty complacent are you
anyway
are you stupid are you stupid no i'm not
i'm asking you
so i answered your question i answer
mine are you stupid you sound pretty
complacent i rather not love myself it's
complacency
are you stupid are you back to what i
will you please stop are you stupid
i have to know if it's so i can know
like what level i should be on with you
because
i tried to ask you for an example of
actually
rubing okay what in your mind is an
example of proving
uh something in reality you keep
diverting
and no i'm not converting you said all
the things i'm saying are not
falsifiable
tell me something that in your view
passes the test of
falsifiability and verify i'm trying to
explain to you
yeah what i mean when i bring it up in
the context i know what you mean i know
what falsification is
i've been five years of my [Β __Β ] life
studying this [Β __Β ]
so i know what it means you [Β __Β ]
idiot i'm asking you
what is an example concrete example that
passes the test of falsification in your
view
you aren't comprehending why i brought
it up in relation
to the question because it has nothing
to do with what we're talking about
anyway back to what i was saying
the reason why i brought falsifiability
in relation to
because i was making an empirical claim
right because i was making an empirical
claim that falls under the standard of
false viability right
you're just gonna say that right admit
it you're just gonna say that right
no i'm what are you gonna say then what
are you gonna say
i'm trying to explain then say it
i am trying to which keep interrupting
me anyway
the reason why i bring it up is because
when you talk about things like surplus
value or
labor or abstract labor value and then
just say ultimately that's just revealed
by prices
is that you can't really
d you haven't demonstrated how that's
connected to the cat
you call the capitalist crisis or other
things because there is no empirical
evidence that
falling rate of profits is connected in
any way to recessions or depressions and
if you research the causes for economic
bubbles
the best causes empirically there really
is
isn't much evidence for that primarily
because you're saying that
you're saying recessions have nothing to
do with falling rates of profit
yeah there's no empirical evidence for
that there's no empirical evidence at
all
yeah there's not much empirical evidence
sure
yes please provide it you mean you
provided you're the one who said there's
no evidence
there's no empirical evidence for it are
you sure about it are you absolutely
certain about that
if you provide your sources i will
concede
what is your source for it okay
what do you want me to do you want me to
go on google for you right now
well if you don't have any empirical
evidence for what you're for your own
theory then
and you're thinking you should provide a
source so clearly my own mind is not
going to be enough for you now is it
no it your own mind isn't enough for me
anyway okay so what do you want from me
what exactly do you want as an example
of the [Β __Β ] truism that the
depression was connected to falling
rates of profit which is a truism by the
way
it's what by the way do you know what
depression means do you know what
depression means
yes what's a recession what's a
depression
well it actually does rely on what gets
depressed what gets depressed
what gets depressed it require a
lessened level of economic activity it's
usually what does that mean
what's economic activity measured how
i'm trying to explain to you
it's usually quantified by a certain
amount
it's decreasing gdp something like that
but that's not that
war ii during world war ii
okay okay g you want to go down the gdp
route even though it's not true
no what is gdp no no okay so what's
going on
what is gdp that's what you just said
i wasn't finished yet because you cut me
off
what is it this is the most weasley
little [Β __Β ] that's ever come on my
stream
i said that it's by no means the only
one i'm simply saying that that's how
it's often defined but anyway back to
how did you define it i asked you how to
define it
it is not a truism that i am asking you
to [Β __Β ] tell me what a depression is
or what a recession is
because in my view falling rate of
profit is tautologically bound up with
the [Β __Β ] word depression and the word
recession that is okay then what is a
depression what's a recession
why do they call it a depression what is
being depressed
that is not the case what is being
depressed in a depression
again wherever you i get you somewhere
you keep asking me what i'm talking
about yet when i ask you you don't you
have to go to google anyway so my point
what is
i went to google to give you a summary
that won't be my heterodox marxist's
take it would be a [Β __Β ] marxist 101
summary
but anyway what is it that's being done
i keep trying to advance the
conversation are you interested in
answering this question
what are you interested in answering
this question what question
of what is being depressed or recessed
in a depression or a recession
look it up why should i look it up
because that's what i'm going to do
anyways what you've done there's no
juice but you said there's no connection
you said there's no evidence of looking
at
me you said there is no evidence of a
connection between falling rates of
profit
and a depression or recession right
the reason why i'm do i have you clear
there is no connection between falling
rates of profit and a depression or
recession
there isn't any okay good i have you
cleared
i'm so glad i got you pinned down with
that okay good paul so
so so in your mind what is it which is
being depressed
or recessed in a depression or a
recession like what goes down what
what's the line that goes down
again for the umpteenth time the reason
why i'm not indulging you
is because you're trying to construct a
straw man because if i give you a
definition isn't
it isn't exactly precise you're going to
no i'm not i'm going to let you say
whatever you want and we'll roll with
it infrared
you can you said that you consider a
falling rate of profit
and recessions and depressions to be a
truism
yeah that is false
oh really yes empirical evidence
for falling when you back
can you ever back up a [Β __Β ] single
[Β __Β ] thing that comes out of your
mouth can you back it up by anything
even logically
infrared
please provide empirical evidence that
listen very carefully that a falling
rate of profit
causes depressions and recessions
because depression
and recessions literally mean falling
rates of profit that's literally what
they mean
okay let's look at what depression means
go ahead look it up
let's see if it means falling rates of
profit yeah
go ahead i'm doing it it keeps pulling
up
depression and psychology
an economic depression is a period of
sustained long-term it could be a
downturn
i have it i'm trying i'm reading out to
you the definition
is the period of sustained long-term
downturn in economic
activity in one or more economies is
more severe than
a recession which is a slow down
economic activity
so what's in depression is characterized
by price deflation
financial crises a stock market crash
and bank failures
yeah so it's not just a falling rate of
profit that's a highly simplistic view
and it isn't even taught logical like
you say that it is but some industries
may have more
let's go buy those one by one right no
infrared yeah one by one
i wasn't finished yet okay go ahead
finish because some industries and
depressions
may make more profit so that's
another reason why the marxist theory of
value
is not as it doesn't deal with one
industry dude with the aggregate sum
total of an economy justifiable you can
say whatever it is
you need it to be no i'm not it's a very
conceptually coherent
point marx's theory of value deals with
the economy in the aggregate
marx is very precise and clear about
that i didn't pull out of my [Β __Β ] ass
you [Β __Β ] idiot
he deals with the economy in the
aggregate he doesn't deal with one
industry or one business
yeah that which is why it's very poor
why is that falsifiable
unfalsifiable it's a very poor way
to say that a depression is just due to
falling rates of profit
because it may not necessarily even be
the case
and it failed in the aggregate it is a
falling rate of profit
okay please provide empirical evidence
for that i will concede no i'll
i'm going to ask you a question give me
evidence of a single depression in the
history of capitalism
that did not correspond to an aggregate
falling rate of profit
just one just one example
just one please go ahead
oh i'll wait no i'm asking you
no no providing one example
i'm asking okay then i'm stating
dogmatically
that every single recession in
depression
corresponds to an aggregate falling rate
of profit
it's because it doesn't have to do with
just profit
is there an exact do you have an example
do you have a do you have an exception
you haven't provided any i don't know
we're all every single one
every single one to me every single one
again source please
okay great depression a fall in profits
what are you looking at i'm looking at
the debt deflation that corresponded
to the great depression and the chain of
cycle that happened
yeah i'm not watching the stream due to
delay so
if you just send me what you're talking
about that actually
now i'll just pull up the stream here
anyway so continue please advance the
argument
every single depression in the history
of humanity corresponded to an aggregate
falling rate of profit
okay so
how does that demonstrate your claims
about the capitalist crisis
what do you mean you're the one who said
they're unrelated there's no empirical
evidence for their relation
no my point is that that doesn't
necessarily cause the depression or
recession
what do you mean you couldn't cause it
so what because it's more of a symptom
falling rates of profits are more of a
symptom look at this [Β __Β ] he said
there's no connection
he said there's no connection look at
this [Β __Β ] i'm talking [Β __Β ] idiot
literally every single one of these are
[Β __Β ] recessions and they're trying
to clarify what i meant you [Β __Β ]
[Β __Β ]
infrared i'm trying to clarify look at
this
you're walking it back now first you
said no no
no no no no i'm gonna [Β __Β ] catch you
you [Β __Β ] weasley little liar
the first thing the first thing you
[Β __Β ] said
was that there is no evidence of a
connection i'm showing you an evidence
of connection right now
i'm telling you first of all now you're
saying
we don't only have to demonstrate that
there's a connection and
guys please make a clip of it where he
said there's no connection
now you want me to say that it is the
only cause
i have to prove it's the cause the cause
no i didn't say that it was the only
cause no you're saying the burden of
proof lies upon me
to now state that it is the only cause
no when before
when before the goal post was different
before the goal post was
proving empirically that there's a
connection
infrared when i said there was no
connection i
meant that it i should have clear first
of all so now you're the one
who's being unfalsifiable because you
just keep changing your own definitions
and changing your own premises at will i
was about to
you [Β __Β ] weasley little liar
interrupted i [Β __Β ] caught you
no infrared i was about to [Β __Β ] go
the weasel i caught you out of your
little [Β __Β ] weasel hole
and i'm holding you infrared i was about
to concede something called the weasel
pop goes a weasel jack come on infrared
rolls a weasel let's go infrared
infrared i was about to concede
something before you cut me off
anyway as i was saying i should have
conceit
i concede because when i said that there
was no connection
that was false so what i mean is is that
for as for a cause of a recession or
depression no not really
because when you're talking about in the
aggregate and the falling rate of profit
that's more of
[Music]
that's the way the money goes pop goes
the weasel
[Music]
anyway will you address what i said what
did you say no one was listening
what no one was listening to what you
said
okay well before you interrupted me i
was about to con
see something oh you can see the debate
finally no i wasn't getting no
no okay what did you concede well before
you interrupt me i was going to concede
that when i said there was no connection
i could see that i should have been more
clear what i mean okay so you're wrong
what i mean you're wrong this is the
second concession i haven't conceded
anything you've conceded twice
by the way because you don't concede
when you're wrong i haven't been wrong
[Β __Β ] once
not once thank you adrian's appreciation
you said earlier that anyway as i've
said
what's an example of me being wrong
well when you've mentioned that first of
all when you go back to abstract value
thing and say what the prices are
i told you that you can't quantify that
but then you say that i can't well you
can't quantify value because the concept
of value
would allow you to understand that it
can't be quantified because it's not a
[Β __Β ] form
in and of itself it's a context that's
not a form when i said that you can't
say that prices are below that then you
said oh well no because value's
connected to price
my point is that you can't no no but you
didn't understand the argument
you can't say well how do you quantify
value because value only
exists in the form
of price but we say that it falls
we say that it falls below its value
because we're describing a relationship
between price and profit
and a point of mind that you just
ignored
so so the value of the the
shut up so the quantity of quote-unquote
value would
have to be relative to the time
and place specifically of uh
the lowering rate of um profit and price
yeah what the value is is relative to
its instantiation
there is no fixed value anywhere outside
of its
outside of the form of price yes which
is why you can't
say that a price was below it and the
thing that you ignored
now don't interrupt me because the thing
that you ignored is when i said
that you need to be able to quantify
value to be able to say that something
is below it you then said that it was
connected back to price
but then the point that i said in
response to that that you just ignored
was that price is that you can't say
that price is below it then because you
don't know what the
idealized value prices are actually
going to
support you you don't actually need
idealized
values of price and you can't say yes
you can
you [Β __Β ] idiot you haven't been
listening all you need to know
is that price goes below the necessary
sum
that would allow a return on profit and
you don't know what that is
because you can't demonstrate i don't
know what it is because i don't know
what you're asking
or what in 1875 and 1920 what that looks
like will differ across time and space
so you just said that you couldn't
quantify it
but now you because value is quantified
in terms of price this is what you don't
understand
just because listen shut up shut up shut
up shut up
just because form gives form to a
content
doesn't mean there's no the distinction
between content and form is meaningless
how do you quantify content you can't
you can only quantify form
but you can arrive at the conceptual
significance of
content's contradiction with form when
form
undergoes internal contradictions
when form is unable to account for its
own premises which is the whole point of
marx's discovery
that the form of value cannot account
for the actual real content of value
you are locating the specific
contradiction that gives meaning to the
distinction
between content and form and what
you haven't demonstrated the
significance of any of that
okay look look look you're a weasel and
you're saying you haven't demonstrated
but why should anyone care if you feel i
haven't demonstrated it
i don't feel that you haven't
demonstrated it you haven't demonstrated
move it prove it what is your
qualification for demonstrating it
because you've made several empirical
claims and when i asked you for an
example of demonstrating an empirical
claim
you couldn't give me anything so how can
i know anything
there is nothing i could say that would
be an example of demonstrating it
because there is nothing
nothing at all that is for you an
example of demonstrating an empirical
claim
i never said it was nothing my point is
no you're flirting dogmatically there is
nothing
because you have not offered anything
because they're because listen listen
listen hello
you came on my stream you want to talk
to me right you sitting there and saying
well i'm not going to give you an
example
but listen i ask you for an example to
prove it
in order for us to believe that you
think there is an example of something
that can be proven empirically you have
to give us an example of one
otherwise we're going to assume you
don't have any just like how you and as
when you ask me for examples and i don't
provide you're going to go
well i don't even know well who the [Β __Β ]
are you you came on my turf
i'm the streamer i have the audience
your job is to persuade the audience
that i'm wrong your job is to persuade
the audience that things in the past i
have said
are wrong your job is not to come here
and say that i haven't sufficiently
persuaded you
no one [Β __Β ] cares about how you're
persuaded or not persuaded
your job is to debate me about things
i've said in the past
okay well here's no one cares if you
personally are not convinced
or persuaded because you are not the
audience
because my audience is clearly persuaded
i have 300 viewers right now
my audience is clearly very persuaded by
the [Β __Β ] i have to say
so your job is actually to disprove me
you
seem to be very confused about what it
is you're doing here
you you stumbled onto this stream to
debate about marxist economics
in the first 10 minutes we established
that you have
zero and i mean zero knowledge about
anything relating to marxist economics
beyond phrases and words whose actual
meaning you have demonstrated
zero actual knowledge of and now you've
stumbled your way into a [Β __Β ] weasley
little hole
and pop goes the weasel that's all that
keeps [Β __Β ] happening
pops knows the weasel you didn't really
demonstrate that because i went
because when i asked you about what
certain things were you had to look them
up as well
so you didn't really demonstrate that i
didn't know what i was talking about you
can look it up either
look it up you can look it up too
yeah my point is is that there's no
reason to do that
why not well if you want an example of
something that could be falsified yes
there you go yes that's exactly what i'm
asking for
okay there is a ring on your finger
right now
but it's not a ring actually it's a
[Β __Β ] piece of paper
you [Β __Β ] dumb ass
okay what a dog shoot example
what let me let me let me let me
entertain it let me entertain this
falsified
infrared but let me entertain it let me
entertain you
and you falsified it no no let me
entertain it let me know it was just a
joke let me entertain it what you just
said
no what you did what i'm entertaining
your example
i'm going to assume this isn't there was
a ring okay okay whatever whatever
whatever
yeah it was a joke i get it you know no
i was
you false electricity it was the joke
now let's actually talk about what you
just said
what if i say that in fact
your claim is unfalsifiable how can you
falsify whether or not there's a ring on
my finger by looking at it
why should what if your eyes can't be
deceived what if your eyes see something
different from my eyes in my chats
eyes i could tell my chat to lie and
they'll lie for me so you have no way of
disproving it
well not quite that's what do you mean
not quite
because that has nothing to do with what
i was talking about you keep no he said
there's a ring on my finger how are we
supposed to falsify that
well chad doesn't see anything i don't
see anything how do we falsify that if
only you have access to seeing it
well first of all when you talk about
that it very it depends a lot on the
nature why do we why should we why
should we
distinguish the ring on my finger at all
why should we entertain
distinguishing the object of a ring
being on my finger at all how can you
falsify that you can't fault there's no
way to confirm or deny it
well no not really because you just need
to be more precise with the terms
that's the entire okay bring more terms
then be more precise
my point is is that your notions of
abstract labor value
and surplus yeah but you i asked you for
an example
of something that can be falsified or
not falsified
on your finger i asked awesome yeah but
it can't be falsified
you did falsify it when you said that it
was a piece of paper and you demonstrate
it by taking it off of your yeah as a
joke
but if we're getting into a theoretical
mode of the concept of falsifiability
you actually can't falsify whether
there's a ring on my finger
you have no way oh no you haven't
demonstrated that oh
you haven't demonstrated it's you're the
one saying that i just demonstrated
why you can't you didn't that wasn't
because
in order in order first of all in order
for you
in order for you to arrive at the
conclusion of whether or not there's a
ring on my finger
you have to presuppose concepts which
are not
empirically verifiable like what please
list them
you have to presuppose
the concept of form that there is
yes you do because you're saying there's
a formally intelligible
object on my finger that's distinct from
my finger
define what a form is define form please
why should i define form because i don't
think you know what it is
yes i do know what it is okay what is it
then define form
form is a that's a tough question
form is
how do you define it well wait a second
i just asked you to define it
i need time i would need a lot of time i
would need a lot of time to define it
how would you define it
infrared yeah what you've done
throughout this debate
is when i've cornered you somewhere yeah
you say
that wait a second what is that he asked
me to define
and then because it's you don't
understand how profoundly philosophical
your question is
you don't understand how profoundly
philosophical your question is
listen this is why it's hard to answer
your question because if
any attempt to define form is going to
presuppose the very concept of form
so that's why it's tough it's a very
philosophically rigorous
and difficult question okay
how is it presupposed then
how is form presupposed yes how is it
well because
you are because you are because a ring
for example
is a form because it begins and ends
somewhere you're making an
object intelligible from its
surroundings in this case my hand
and you're making my hand intelligible
from its surroundings
okay as a content so how is that
so how is that a problem then how can i
you not falsify
anything then you said earlier that you
can't falsify because you can't falsify
whether there's a ring on my finger or
not
yes why not again and how is that
related to what you were saying
because i can just as easily explain
i can give you an alternative
explanation for whatever it is
you think you're seeing on my hand that
does not require
us to increase that does not necessitate
the inquiry
as to whether there's a ring there or
not well
no you can make that's not quite true
because you can make up an explanation
why can't i just say you're making up
the observation that there's a ring on
my form on my uh
finger because you have no evidence that
that's what happened
but you can't begin with evidence how
the [Β __Β ] can you begin with evidence as
your prayer you can't begin with
evidence as a premise here well your
beginning with form is a premise
yes because form is an abstraction
okay why is it valid because in order
for your reality to be intelligible and
coherent
you have to presuppose that there are
forms there's discontinuities in reality
that give rise to distinct forms
one thing is different from another
there's discontinuities in your reality
yes and you can falsify certain
discontinuities can you not
how how is this now how do you false but
but the presupposition this is what you
don't [Β __Β ] understand from a
philosophical perspective
the presupposition of that
intelligibility
actually is not falsifiable in order for
me to relate to reality
in such a way so as to distinguish
intelligible things within it
i have to presuppose some kind of stance
or position or situation in reality
that cannot be falsified
you haven't shown how that's the case
you are an npc and every time
shut up every time i make a point
all you know how to [Β __Β ] do is say
you haven't demonstrated the evidence
did you just not hear what i said
i did you're just making do you know
what the synthetic a priori is
again do you know what the synthetic a
priori is things are when i ask you you
say you asked okay can con synthetic a
priori
be falsified or can it be demonstrated
empirically
i don't think so i could be one no it
can't sure no it can't but according to
kant
the synthetic at the very concept of us
and the very uh notion of a synthetic a
priori
are the presuppositions that allow us to
make reality coherent
yeah before being able to even measure
it or relate to it or measure it
infrared you just keep reiterating your
philosophical
position but you haven't advanced how
that's the case second of all lots of
things that you're talking about are
ambiguities that just stem
from the lack of precision in
distinguishing it because when i say
this all you do
all you do is narrativize my words but
you don't actually give us meat and
potatoes
what does that mean like really prove
what you're saying
what do you mean by really proof it's
just saying you came on to debate me
not to talk about how unimpressed or
unpersuaded you are by me i'm not here
to convert you you [Β __Β ] dumb ass
you're here to [Β __Β ] debate me
so get to the meat and potatoes about
why i'm wrong
you haven't demonstrated that you're
okay then leave
no wait a second there are a few more
things that i wish to discuss
anyway the entire reason why we went on
this
tangent was because when i said that
your notion of abstract labor value was
wasn't falsifiable the reason why that's
a problem but you didn't you know
you didn't know what abstract labor
value was and you conceded that you
didn't know what it was so you really
want to go down that path again
again for the umpteenth time you keep
asking me what things are when you think
that i don't know what you keep making
claims about things that you don't
actually know what they are
you keep making claims about things
which you don't actually know what they
are
yes i can't remember them perfectly
which is why no you don't know anything
about them
not even a single thing you thought
overproduction meant
the question of overproduction people
produce too many things than what people
need
yeah that was more of a mistake yeah but
it was wrong
and you you didn't even know what
abstract labor was i kept pressing you
pressing you what does it mean you
couldn't give me anything because you
didn't know what it [Β __Β ] meant
and you haven't demonstrated that you
know what it is either because you
haven't really
yes i did i just told you what abstract
labor was
yes and the definition is incoherent
because you can say that it's anything
that you want it to be in relation to
price
why no abstract no no you don't
understand why marx forwards a concept
of
abstract labor yes to justify
his beliefs about the proletary and the
yes
no it's not well that's how
he could have that is an unfalsifiable
claim mark said it could have
uh produced a myriad of judgments and
claims about
the economy that would have also
justified the pro at whatever
you don't think anarchists existed which
make all sorts of dumb [Β __Β ] claims
about capitalism all the time
you don't think other kinds of
socialists existed which did that i
never why did marx specifically
demanding me i never said that you said
marx
you said marx developed the concept of
abstract labor
to justify his view about the
proletariat which is a [Β __Β ] lie
okay why is it developing because my
point
okay so because i'm the educator and
you're the student and i have to teach
you about things that you should have
been able to walk in here knowing
well because i do know it i just don't
remember it exactly and i asked you for
things give me something give me
anything and look at them you have any
anything about abstract labor
what give me any indication that you
know anything about abstract labor give
me any indication that you know what
you're talking about we can both
the burden of proof is not even upon me
to do the burden of proof is not upon me
to demonstrate my knowledge of abstract
labor because i'm not the one making
claims about it
you are okay well you walked in here
making claims about it
so the burden of proof is on you
you have constructed your own brand of
marxism
okay forget about mine what do most
marxists think it is forget about me
what do most marxists consider it
well i'm not that's not why i came here
i came here for what you guys what did
marx consider it
again we can just look it up i don't
remember exactly you didn't
know anything you said you said it can't
be demonstrated
and you don't even [Β __Β ] know what it
is yes i do i just can't remember
exactly what prove it
give me a little droplet of lit you
don't have to give me a whole exhaustive
conceptual knowledge of it but give me
something
that tells me you know what it means
again
strong thing no idea
of just an ounce of [Β __Β ] droplet of
knowledge
that you know what abstract labor means
you haven't demonstrated that i don't
know you haven't demonstrated chat chat
chat you haven't demonstrated you
haven't demonstrated you haven't done
it's a chat
come on you haven't demonstrated you
haven't demonstrated you haven't
demonstrated
you haven't demonstrated you haven't
demonstrated you haven't demonstrated
you haven't demonstrated you haven't
demonstrated npc's in the chat you
haven't demonstrated
you haven't demonstrated you haven't
demonstrated you haven't demonstrated
you haven't demonstrated go ahead say
something
go ahead say something well you haven't
demonstrated
go ahead say something i'd like to
advance you haven't demonstrated
advancing anything
anyway my point is that you haven't
demonstrated a point
you keep deflecting it you haven't
demonstrated the deflection
okay well you can caricature my
you haven't demonstrated me doing a
character
you can caricature you haven't
demonstrated me being able to do a
caricature
but i have empirical evidence you
haven't demonstrated any empirical
evidence
well yes i have what you're doing you
haven't demonstrated what i'm doing
there's empirical evidence you haven't
demonstrated there is empirical evidence
i really wish to continue this you
haven't demonstrated you were that you
really wish to continue
okay how can i you haven't demonstrated
that asking the question of how can you
in in good faith and earnestly
okay well i'm here i'm ready you haven't
demonstrated being here how do i know
you're here
okay i understand your exercise you
haven't demonstrated that you understand
my exercise
again this caricature isn't terrible you
haven't demonstrated that there's a
caricature
this isn't terribly helpful for what
you're trying you haven't demonstrated
it's not terribly helpful
okay well i'm trying to advance you
haven't demonstrated you're trying to
advance something
my point is that you haven't
demonstrated a point the ability to do
you haven't demonstrated a point
i like how your responses are the same
you keep rotating
my point is he keeps doing the same you
haven't demonstrated
because you keep saying this you haven't

this is much different than what i do
you haven't you haven't demonstrated any
difference
okay infrared i'm here you haven't

haven't you haven't demonstrated it's
the best argument
here's the mistake that you haven't
demonstrated a mistake
when i ask you you haven't demonstrated
for me to ask anything
the problem is that you didn't
demonstrate a problem you didn't
demonstrate a problem
for the i'm never going to you didn't
you didn't demonstrate an umpteenth time
did you realize that you didn't
demonstrate realizing anything
you didn't demonstrate realizing
anything
i'm not going to lose this you didn't
demonstrate you're not going to lose
this you're already lost by the way but
it's okay

continue
i'll just keep talking you didn't
demonstrate you're going to keep talking
so for the capitalists you didn't
demonstrate for the capitalist thing but
you're saying you didn't demonstrate
anything about the capitalist problem
the main problem you didn't demonstrate
there's a problem
what you're saying you didn't just you
didn't demonstrate there's a problem
flaw is you didn't demonstrate there's a
flaw
you do realize that you didn't
demonstrate anyone realizes anything
infrared you didn't demonstrate my name
is infrared you're not going to win you
didn't demonstrate i'm not going to win
[Music]
i can do this you didn't demonstrate

a problem that i'm saying there's a
problem you didn't demonstrate it
demonstrated
the falling rates of profits you didn't
you didn't demonstrate anything about
the falling rate of problems right
you didn't demonstrate you know anything

because you don't
actually by the way i do and i'm trying
to
demonstrate you know you didn't
demonstrate you know you were wrong
you didn't demonstrate i was wrong you
didn't you didn't demonstrate
you didn't demonstrate i was wrong you

demonstrate that you responded to what i
already said about the cause you didn't
demonstrate it
no you said you didn't demonstrate when
i said it the cause was irrelevant
you didn't demonstrate that now did you
again you didn't demonstrate how saying
there's a difference between saying
there's a cause and difference
do you see there's a difference between
saying it's the cause and difference
between saying it's evidence you didn't
demonstrate you understand that
distinction between a cause and evidence
of something
actually no what you said earlier you
didn't demonstrate what i said earlier
you didn't demonstrate you understood
anything about what i said earlier
[Music]
again you didn't demonstrate you're
doing this again
for the last you didn't demonstrate it's
gonna be the last time
infrared you didn't demonstrate infrared
infrared you didn't demonstrate anything
about infrared
infrared you didn't demonstrate anything
about infrared
infrared didn't demonstrate my name is
infrared infrared you didn't demonstrate
that's the name i should address
you are a fool you didn't demonstrate
i'm a fool
well you can't really fault well you
have already neglected falsifiability
you haven't you haven't demonstrated the
validity of falsifiability you haven't
demonstrated it
okay so you do realize that i can just
call you a fool and
you haven't demonstrated you could just
call me that
you do realize that falsifiability is
still very you haven't you haven't
demonstrated it's still very important
okay so you do realize you haven't
demonstrated
the question of realizing
for the last time you haven't
demonstrated it's gonna be the last time
infrared you haven't demonstrated my
name's infrared
okay for the last time you haven't
demonstrated it's gonna be the last time
[Music]
well i've demonstrated you haven't
demonstrated anything
because if you knew what you were

demonstrated you have been demonstrating
that you haven't demonstrated that i
haven't demonstrated that you haven't
demonstrated anything
again this is an infinite loop you
haven't demonstrated it's an infinite
loop
there's empirical evidence you haven't
demonstrated there's empirical evidence
of the infinite
are you just farming me you haven't
demonstrated i'm just farming you
well if you're using me for content you
haven't demonstrated i'm using you for
content
okay this is ridiculous you didn't
demonstrate it's ridiculous
anyway this is absurd you didn't

demonstrated you know what i'm doing
again i'm never going to stop you didn't

you're never going to stop
again this has nothing to do with
empiricism
you've never demonstrated this has
nothing to do with empiricism

demonstrated this has nothing to do with
empiricism because you're conflating
you haven't demonstrated i'm conflating
anything you haven't demonstrated that

the point is
i've tried to debate you you haven't
demonstrated that you've tried to debate
me actually
[Music]

break out you didn't demonstrate there's
gonna be anything that's gonna break out
of this
okay by the way
you didn't demonstrate there's a but
there's a way you didn't demonstrate
this away
my labor you didn't demonstrate this is
labor you're exploiting you didn't
demonstrate this as labor
yes you have you're excited you didn't
demonstrate that i'm exploding your
labor you didn't demonstrate it
you're far you haven't demonstrated on
farming you haven't demonstrated it
it is surplus value because you're
getting you haven't demonstrated surplus
values
i have no idea you are but keep it up
if this is the best disc you haven't
demonstrated this is the best discourse
i'm trying you haven't demonstrated
you're trying
[Music]
okay so
if you're going to continue this you
haven't demonstrated whether i'm going
to continue
which i am by the way i know oh you

know
you haven't demonstrated you haven't
demonstrated that i haven't demonstrated
you haven't demonstrated you haven't
demonstrated that i haven't demonstrated

to answer that question
[Music]
you can't demonstrate your entire system
you didn't demonstrate that i can't
demonstrate it
uh you did you can't demonstrate that i
that i did

evidence
yes i have you haven't demonstrated you
have
[Music]
are you broken you haven't demonstrated
of the whether i should answer the
question whether i'm broken
um you have you haven't demonstrated

okay okay you haven't demonstrated you
cleared to throw
i'm never going to stop you never you
haven't demonstrated you're never going

okay so
this keep in mind this debate was about
to be about you haven't demonstrated
what this debate was going to be about
you didn't know anything about it by the
way before you walked in you didn't know
anything about marxism when you walked
in
you didn't either because you didn't
demonstrate i didn't know you didn't
demonstrate i didn't know you literally
didn't
you had to go to google you literally
didn't demonstrate i had to go to google
you [Β __Β ] idiot
i went to google you didn't demonstrate
the fact
you didn't demonstrate knowledge of the
fact that i only went to google to give
you an
unorthodox marxist take i'm a heterodox
marxist you don't want my head to redux
marx's view
he didn't demonstrate they have
knowledge of that fact actually that was
actually what i said multiple times i
said
you didn't demonstrate you didn't
demonstrate you had knowledge of marxism
101. you didn't demonstrate it
yes i you haven't demonstrated it once
literally you have i'm not even mimi you
haven't demonstrated it once it's a
reason why i asked you
you haven't demonstrated this with the
entire you haven't you didn't
demonstrate it was the entire reason
infrared the entire reason why i asked
you what you haven't demonstrated with
the entire reason
you haven't demonstrated my hydrodox
take takes you didn't demonstrate
understanding the fact that my heterodox
take would take too long to understand
in so many words so i wanted to get a
one sentence one bit simplification for
you that someone else on the internet
probably did a better job of doing you
didn't demonstrate that basic common
sense now did you
because it's incoherent you didn't
demonstrate it's incoherent you haven't
demonstrated it's incoherent
because it's incoherent you haven't
demonstrated it's incoherent
you haven't even shown how it's used you
haven't demonstrated that i haven't
shown it
again you haven't shown you haven't
demonstrated what i haven't shown we're
talking about
you didn't demonstrate that i didn't
know what i'm talking about you never
demonstrated it you never demonstrated
it
okay so first of all you haven't
demonstrated this first time
you didn't demonstrate anything about
falsifiability
okay i come in here you didn't you
haven't demonstrated you comment here
