shut the fuck up about early streams
it's just it's pissing I didn't even I
wasn't even gonna fucking go live
tonight
and then I said you know what
I have been skipping so many days it's
better than nothing isn't it isn't it
better than nothing that I'm fucking
live
cause I spent all fucking day
working on bullshit
at a really fucking long you guys know
I'm still moving I don't even have a
fucking table to eat on yet and I'm
still fucking moving it's like I have no
time I don't even get I don't get to
relax
I'm just fucking moving all the fucking
time okay the difference is now it's a
guarantee that I can stream every day
now when can I start doing earlier
streams I'm gonna try tomorrow I don't
know okay I don't fucking know
but you would once if it's better than
nothing you guys is it better than
nothing right I could have just not gone
live today
which I was thinking about and I said no
it's better than nothing right
anyway we're gonna have a chill stream
today it's not gonna be too crazy we're
just gonna have a chill stream today and
I'm gonna talk about a few things okay I
don't know how long it's gonna be either
but I just it's better than nothing
right new slogan I'm just kidding guys I
don't know when I'm gonna be able to
fully get back on my grind set and when
I say my full grind set I mean like my
full workload I mean recording videos
editing videos
um I'm just I'm gonna be fully
transparent with you guys
I'm gonna have to be focused on
streaming for a long it's it's a weird
predicament but it's like
I need at least one day I can take off
to record a video because I need to grow
the YouTube channel
so I'm gonna need to at least take one
day off to do that probably sometime
next week but like I'm so behind right
in terms of streaming
that you know I I really I'm just I have
a desperate need
to fucking stream every single day and
guys trust me okay nobody wants to
stream earlier more than me but today
I let me put it this way guys I'm a very
efficient person when it comes to like
managing my time
look I'm working with people
you know and they're just they don't
they don't have no perception of time at
all and they just they they know how to
waste time better than anyone right
I just happen to know a lot of fucking
people who are just experts at fucking
wasting time and then before I fucking
know it it's like 9 30 and I'm like shit
I have to stream and then I eat because
believe it or not I wake up and I focus
on this place I'm moving into all
fucking day
and then I fucking eat at like 9 45 and
then I just fucking go live I'm not
showered I haven't even gone to the gym
and it's a vicious cycle that I'm waking
up so fucking late because I'm so
stressed about streaming as early as I
fucking can and if you can fucking
believe it this is the earliest I could
stream today right
that I have to skip the gym and then
after the stream is over when it's like
2 A.M I go to the fucking gym
what do you know right I get back like
an hour or two later
and and then I that's when I actually
get the business done that I had no time
to when it comes to fucking catching up
on reading and catching up on some
writing stuff and catch even catching up
on news and catching on so it's like
it's such a fucked up schedule I have
right now
and yeah this stream is gonna like I'm
gonna unlist this one after I'm just
streaming this for you guys right this
is not like a video I'm making it's just
a fucking I'm do I'm I'm putting up a
show tonight I'm gonna have a stream
tonight
okay but yeah a lot of people just
fucking have no respect for my fucking
time and yeah it's fuck yeah I know I
know it's I know how fucking late it is
all right I know how fucking late it is
um fuck man I'm just I'm just fucking
pissed I'm really just fucking pissed
and you can believe it
okay then then all these problems I just
listed to you
and then I have health problems
and I have health problems and I'm I'm
still trying to maintain faith in God
that's all I'm trying to do
still just trying to maintain faith in
God
okay
because I you know it's a lot of
bullshit I'm going through a lot of
fucking just fucking bad luck right but
it's okay I'm trying to keep calm trying
to maintain faith in God whatever right
but uh I really am looking forward to
the day where people leave me the fuck
alone
right
and I can get back to focusing on what I
care about which is the streams that's
all I fucking care about this is all I
fucking care about is infrared I don't
give a fuck about anything else a Muriel
holy fuck thank you man thank you thank
you man thank you so much holy shit
yeah
is the health problem a no it's a health
problem not a fucking cosmetic problem
it's a health problem okay
like today for example
this side nothing serious there's a
there's a kind of serious thing I have
to get surgery for
uh and I'm probably gonna do that in
December I just I just want to make sure
it's not going to interfere with my
streaming so there's that that I have to
deal with
but I woke up today holy fuck Emilio
thank you shout out to Muriel man thank
you so much man there's that issue right
but then there's also this other issue I
have to deal with
today a short term issue like for
example
no it's not related to my fucking hair
in any capacity shut are you just trying
to insult me and say oh how's your hair
looks bad today I know bitch I didn't
fucking stream
I mean I didn't shower today I didn't
shower because I wanted to stream as
early as I fucking could for you guys
okay
don't bitch about my hair not looking
the best
because I didn't even shower this is
literally my fucking this isn't even my
bed hair after last night's stream I
went to the fucking gym
okay
I didn't sweat too much
so I just I didn't have time to shower I
just went to bed it was like 6 a.m or
some shit I woke up as soon as I fucking
woke up got off off my fucking ass went
to a doctor's appointment and I went to
go get some
fucking Furniture I went and got some
locking furniture
here we are and it takes that fucking
long
takes that fucking line I just if it's
if I could be the dictator of everything
I everything could be everything can go
by so fast right
but it's like shit was severely
handicapped today if you could believe
it I was severely handicapped just by
the fact that my fucking lower back was
killing me
like I thought I had kidney failure or
some shit because it's like right next
to my kidney so my lower back is
absolutely killing me it's just like
horrific
and that like slowed me down like two
times modifier slowed down right I
haven't been able to fucking you have to
shower
I know it's disgusting isn't it this is
literally what I'm doing to fucking save
time for you guys thank you so much
voidberg
um I'm gonna shower tonight obviously
I'm gonna go to the gym after I stream
thank you so much voidburn holy fuck
thank you man I'm gonna go to the shop
I'm gonna fucking um
go to the gym after I stream
and then I'm gonna shower after that and
then I'm gonna wake up tomorrow and then
I'm just fucking streaming I don't know
what I'm gonna I have to I'm gonna do
like this is what I'm gonna do I'm gonna
spend like three to four hours reading
and writing and getting into my groove
back into my grind set because this is a
whole grind set of like Focus right I'm
gonna get back into that and then
I'm gonna be uh streaming
I might even do a fucking oh I don't
know when I wake up depends when I wake
up thank you so much Adrian the early
bird gets the worm but the night owl
gets the mouse let's go yeah
I don't know the night streams they're
chill aren't they we still have chill
streams together it's still chill right
still a lot to talk about still a lot to
do
um but yeah like oh guys you don't want
to see my YouTube analytics just all
because of I've been moving it's
literally the only reason
the month of November is the worst month
in infrared's history and it's literally
just because I've been fucking moving
it's been the worst
and it was it's horrific it's horrific
it's horrific and I I just kind of
regret
uh
I could have moved much earlier right I
decided not to this is what I'm paying
for how much do I read today
nothing at all it's like I'm a retard
right now
because of moving
guys look at my eyes I'm I don't have a
good sleep schedule I'm fucked up right
now okay for me
for me
but anyway here I am
do I fucking am
and we have a lot to talk about today
okay first and foremost
Elon fucking musk unbanned me for
fucking Twitter it's been long enough I
don't know you're fucking waiting for
it's starting to piss me off though
just yeah Twitter's becoming great it is
I'm gonna talk about that
but holy fuck dude just fucking unban me
what the fuck at this point it's pissing
me off nobody would have told me that a
month after he fucking acquires Twitter
he's still not unbanning anyone dude are
you gonna like keep your end of the
bargain
are you gonna fucking like
do what you said you were gonna do or
what holy shit
it's been so fucking long
it's like I need to be back on Twitter
at this fucking point and I would have
at this point if I wasn't fucking
waiting for Elon Musk to fucking unban
me I don't know if he's gonna do it
I don't know if he's gonna do it he
won't dude
dude take my data I don't give a fuck
yeah I'll pay for the eight dollars I
would pay twenty dollars a month to be
unbanned because Twitter is like that
helpful right
and it's like I had a and I've been I've
been enjoying my vacation from Twitter
trust me I have but at this point I'm
like no I want to fucking be back on
Twitter now and I'm gonna tell you why
because there's so much retardation
happening among the gorillas that's only
because I'm not on fucking Twitter right
there's all this dumb bullshit that's
happening because I'm not on Twitter
right now it's starting to actually
annoy me and it's like starting to gnaw
at me and annoy the shit out of me thank
you so much crack dude appreciate you
starting to annoy the fuck out of me
like for example there's this guy on
Twitter who's a lysenko
um fan
uh he
uh he like postures as the lysenko
scholar Ezra was telling me about this
but he was telling us about this and I
looked at the interaction and this is
what happened I talked about how oh yeah
it's totally just genetics that like 30
percent of Zoomers are LGBT totally
genetics and I was being sarcastic and
then the lysenko guy said that it's I
sounded like a Hitler right for denying
that
um LGBT phenomena is based in genes and
and people were like why is that a
Hitler and he's like because he's
applying lysenchoism to human beings
okay hypothetically right
just hypothetically speaking
let's say I was applying lysengoism to
human beings and by the way of course it
does apply to human beings in some sense
and I want to clarify the sense in which
it does
um
let's say I was doing that though right
how is that worse than applying
mendelian Darwinism to human beings you
fucking idiot you're applying like
genetic determinism to human beings I am
allegedly applying lysenchoism to them
which one is worse in terms of what's
Hitler writes right he's like well you
can't apply biology to human beings dude
if you are explaining the LGBT
phenomenon
in terms of genes you are literally
engaging in biological reductionism so
you are the one who's applying biology
to human beings is this unreasonable he
he's bitching and whining he's like oh
I'm not allowed to critique cause
you can but you're also
you're also not allowed to do it without
a reasonable response you're not allowed
to sound like a retard and get no
pushback from it objectively speaking
what you said was retarded you accuse me
of being a Hitler right first of all
that's not a critique that's are you
accused what I was saying of being
Hitler right it's not a critique it's
just like a meaningless and then you
specify that it sounds Hitler right
because it's the application of biology
to human beings what do you think
genetic determinism is
so I didn't say a damn thing about
lysenko and what I was talking about by
the way he was like well he's implying
that it's environmental factors that are
responsible for the LGBT phenomena
actually no I don't think actually I'm
actually a Marxist I don't actually
think the Paradigm of environmental or
genetic factors
um can explain anything about human
beings because that still Falls within a
reductionist paradigm that's why lysenko
was careful to say hey I'm not trying to
like have a new Eugenics program because
it's a reductionist paradigm the pull
meaning of historical materialism is
that human beings are actively not
consciously but still actively involved
in the determination
of you know
Humanity the world of humanity the world
of meaning right and the sexuality in
particular I mean that's more the domain
of something like psychoanalysis it's
not really I mean biology is not going
to tell you all that much right or if it
is you're gonna have to change your view
of biology
now he did say something retarded which
is that like senko didn't think that his
theories apply to humans
no lysenko very clearly understood that
his theories apply to human beings what
he didn't think should apply to human
beings is the their practical
application lysenko was actively
um
applying His science to plants and
animals or plants in particular in a
certain way he didn't agree he didn't
think that you should apply it to human
beings in any active or practical way
that doesn't mean
he thinks human beings are somehow
exempt from the laws of basic biology
like for example why does someone's face
look the way it does
that's a biological right
historical materialism
by itself is not going to explain things
like hey why does this person Haze have
a beard that connects right instead of
one that doesn't connect
so like you just sound retarded of
course I mean like think about it if
lysenko is describing biological laws of
course those do apply in the explanatory
sense to human beings lysenko rejects
Eugenics which goes beyond explanatory
paradigms but into practical and
interventionists on Twitter thank you so
much Mason
that was the whole point he lysenko was
very clear that he didn't think biology
should be applied to humans
um in any practical sense okay now the
other thing
is that he said you know historical
materialism already explains
human beings in terms of social
phenomena which is true but the thing is
is that the whole point of lysenko's
biological Paradigm was that it renders
compatible
the world of biology with the social
world of historical materialism that's
the whole fucking point
how is Marx's historical materialism
reconcile reconcilable with Biology well
lysenko is the person who provides the
answer I find it really bizarre that
there's someone who's like this huge
lysenko fan claims to be a lysenko
scholar and expert and then goes ahead
and says something so stupid like oh
lysenkoism has no applicability to human
beings
what what
so are human beings not biological
anymore are they just exempt from
biology
right
okay and then there's another thing
which is that
this is also where like I'm kind of what
I'm Not Really Gonna complain too much
but it's like dude
you would never have had the balls to
rep lysenko if it wasn't for me so shut
the fuck up
I'm the fucking one who brought lysenko
back that was me name me one other
fucking person who is repping like senko
and Reviving and defending like senko me
I'm the one who fucking inspired you to
fucking do that okay
so how do we know our place here thank
you so much Mason if I haven't already
thanked you why don't you sit the fuck
down and know your place I'm the one who
fucking brought it back bitch you're
only you only got the confidence to
start taking lysenko seriously because
of the way you were inspired to by the
means of this community which were a
direct result by the way not of me
memeing but of me actively and seriously
defending lysenko as having been correct
that was not a joke it was a serious
thing he accused me of having never read
anything by lysenko
dude not only are you wrong you would
have never entertained the possibility
that lysenko was right about anything
were I not the one who had the fucking
courage to defy what all these
soyantists whatever people think and say
yeah lazenko was right I just straight
up said he was right I didn't say some
shit like oh it was the mistake no he
was fucking right
I said that that those were my balls
right
but this is something that's happening
to the infrared Community it seems like
it's like I'm not on Twitter anymore
thank you so much Morlock I hadn't heard
lysenko's name in 25 years until you
brought it back up it was a good idea
thank you so much Chris yeah so okay so
it's something I'm noticing in the
community though it's like people are
just starting to just start it's it's a
not it's a natural and expected thing
it's not necessarily something I'm angry
about
something I'm resentful about but it's
like
a lot of people who hopped on board
infrared are kind of just you know
a lot of those people just are kind of
like ah
I'm Gonna Go My Own Way now and it's
like okay go your own way there's
nothing that's fine I'm not
I have a problem with that but it's like
you don't have to fucking say dumb shit
like Oh I'm a Hitler right and start
having ha's derangement syndrome like
every other fucking disgruntled
ex-community member who's a fucking
loser right is that so unreasonable to
say why does why do why do people just
have to be why can't you just like go do
your own thing I get it you're not as
hyped up anymore I've been moving for
the past fucking month it doesn't seem
like the last seat guys I want you to
put this into perspective
the last big breakthrough was Maga
communism because of that video I did
there's more where that comes from right
it's just that I have been moving after
the Maga communism thing I went to
twitchcon and then I went to Los Angeles
with a UCLA thing also a big Meme and
then I went to New York for the uh the
climate stop climate fascism conference
and then I came back and I was in this
chaotic process of moving moving between
airbnbs and off packing up my shit going
new places fucking whole disaster okay
now I'm here and I'm settled in and
we're we're gonna be back right not
necessarily saying oh take my word for
it I'm just saying
you know
if you really want to go all you know oh
fuck infrared infrared isn't as exciting
as it used to be and then like okay and
then wait and it just wait a few months
and then it's gonna be the dragon is
gonna spread its fucking wings
don't come back bitch you made your
fucking choice right if you can't ride
with infrared at a glow point don't ever
fucking come back and be like oh I was
an OG I was with you for the Missouri
stud Haze no you weren't bitch fuck you
suck my dick you know the same shit
happened
with the uh Russia stuff you know what
on Twitch when I was peaking when I was
averaging 1K views minimum
because of the Russia coverage you know
how many fucking snakes came back to the
community like I was always the fan Haze
no you were not you were a fucking bitch
who fucking you you left and
fucking what do I mean by leave by the
way I just mean like you started
attacking me and you started being bad
faith with me I'm not insane I'm not
saying oh you stopped watching my stuff
you that's obviously normal right we
always
like I'm not entitled to anyone's
attention but I'm saying like you you
like actively started to turn against me
right
in public
and um
you know that's the truth this shit
uh yeah yeah yeah look the thing is I'm
not going anywhere I'm I will never go
anywhere I'm not going anywhere I'm
gonna keep working and I'm Gonna Keep
committing to this shit I just so happen
to be extremely frustrated by the
position that I'm in right now in
particular because I'm still moving shit
in I don't fucking know how long this is
gonna take here's what I'm gonna fucking
do all right
I'm gonna mount my TV upstairs in the
living room
and then I have some furniture that's
still coming in I don't know when that's
fucking coming in man look by Monday
we're fucking done with moving period
I'm gonna get a kitchen table
because I have nowhere to sit and eat
right now gotta get a kitchen table then
I'm gonna mount my TV in my living room
still haven't done that
and then I'm fucking done and then I'm
just fully on back on infrared bully
okay fully back on infrared
but there's so much reading I have to
get caught up on
so much reading I have to get caught up
on and that's the number one you guys
you understand my streams don't come
from nowhere It's a Grind set what I
usually do
is that I wake up this is the
traditional infrared way is that I would
wake up and then I would do a lot of
reading and I would
I would get inspired right
to be to have something to talk about
and then I would share my insights on
stream later and talk about them and
that that has been my grind set for
forever until like recently right
so I'm going to get back on my grind set
I'm I'm actually a lot of people think
ohaz
you only work like two or three hours a
day no
if I work two or three hours a day on
these streams there would be no infrared
Channel I might stream for two or three
hours but the amount that I'm dedicating
to
um
infrared is like the whole it's it's
pretty much the whole fucking day maybe
there's a few hours I have of rest per
day
now what does few hours of rest means
that means I get to just sit and stare
at the wall but here's the thing that's
not even rest because when I'm sitting
and staring against the fucking wall I'm
still like very much in hyper thinking
very very much thinking so I never stop
thinking ever right
so it's a pretty much it's all the only
rest I really get is sleep
and uh that's it
I'm not complaining I like my job I like
what I do I wouldn't I am so grateful I
have the opportunity to do it because I
want to talk about that also it's like
guys if you had not supported me
I would not have had I would not be able
to dedicate any of my fucking time to
the things I actually care about
which is how are we going to revive
Marxism in the 21st century what does it
mean to build a communist movement in
the 21st century yada yada yada this is
what I care about I don't really give a
fuck about anything else if I'm being
very honest right
okay guys now
let's talk about this Twitter business
with Elon Musk because I think that's
the breaking news Well it's not breaking
news but well kind of is actually
so this is tangentially related if you
can believe it by the way if you don't
like the stream you're a pedal but this
is tangentially related
right now if you look on Twitter and I
can't pull up Twitter because on desktop
I'm like banned and I have to log in I
don't want to log in on desktop since
I'm banned because I want to deal with
it
um I'll I'll have a workaround for that
in no time by the way but tangentially
related is the fact that
we
are looking at
we're like 200 000 tweets trending the
number one thing we're trending on
Twitter right now is R.I.P Twitter
Twitter's done Twitter's over now why
are people saying that Twitter's done
and Twitter's over because Elon Musk
sent out this really cool letter that I
want to show you guys to his Twitter
employees
and this is pretty great actually Elon
Musk letter to Twitter employees
I'm gonna show this to you
um this is
no no where's the one that Elon sent
who is Twitter employees
now the Twitter employees are talking
back
here's the ultimatum
where is the ultimatum
dude I hate the New York Times so
fucking much I'm just trying to find the
link to his original ultimatum
and it's like giving me 20 000 links to
other New York Times articles with no
fucking actual link to his ultimatum
fuck the news fuck the you know what
like I'm gonna rant about something
right now okay I'm ranting on some shit
right now so whenever you look at the
news
and you're like I want to find Elon
musk's Twitter ultimatum right they just
quote parts of it throughout the article
but they never fucking link the original
one
where is the original ultimatum where
the fuck is it no I can't find it I have
to sift through this entire fucking
article of some
some
fat ass
giving his fucking uh
commentary and I can't find it right so
I'm looking for it give me a second
okay
in an email
yeah yeah I'm about to fucking
I'm about to fucking
I can't fucking believe this shit I
can't fucking believe this
I hate these fucking journalist pieces
of shit I would spit in their fucking
faces for how they fucking format their
articles
they're such worthless scum I hate
fucking journalists so fucking much they
are such worthless scum
they are such worthless worthless time
wasting pieces of shit
the way I eat so fucking hard for me to
find Elon musk's
email ultimate
to Twitter employees
you know what
it's nowhere to be found
uh mods if you can link it in mod chat
that'd be like really helpful
but I doubt I doubt it I'll be able to
find it
okay no I found it
wow it took so fucking long all right
here we go wow took so long all right
Elon based Musk
said this going forward to build a
breakthrough Twitter 2.0 and succeed in
an increasingly competitive world we
will need to be extremely hardcore this
will mean working long hours at high
intensity only exceptional performance
will constitute a passing grade Twitter
will also be more engineering driven
design and product management was fully
very important but those writing great
code will constitute the majority of our
team at its heart Twitter is a software
and Service Company and this makes sense
if you want to be part of new Twitter
click yes to the link below
so fucking based holy shit hold on first
of all I'm gonna transcribe this this
letter for you he said hey we have a lot
of fucking parasites here at Twitter who
contribute to nothing
so we want the engineers to be in charge
because they're the ones who are
actually dealing with how shit works and
all these this useless fucking people
that we have hired that sit around and
do bullshit and I'll make all these
creative choices get the fuck out of
here bitch we're focusing on the
technology and we're focusing on the
productive forces hell yeah this is
Henry Ford energy
Elon Musk he's what you call he's what
you call a Henry Ford type he's not as
great as Henry Ford was but he's a Henry
Ford type and I want to go on a fucking
rant about this because
I am sickened at the fact that he gave
them a chance dude Elon fucking fire
them all and then get your Tesla people
in instead
I am sick of mediocrity
corporate mediocrity if you're gonna be
someone who's making a product do it
with Excellency
if you're not here to do it with a
listen
look at these Twitter fucking people
they're given a salary you know no no
you know what shut the fuck up you fake
Marxist bitches and you fake left-wing
socialist cucks I'm gonna fucking
explain this to your retarded dumb
fucking ass because a lot of people seem
to not understand the difference between
being a wage worker and being a salaried
parasite so I'm gonna fucking explain it
to you
when you're a wage worker you're just a
citizen and you're going from work place
to work place of course
your employers shouldn't be allowed to
demand of you all of this shit because
it's like hey I'm just a guy who's
working here you know you give me a task
and then I get a wage in return that's
it right that's wage labor that Marxism
is concerned with but that does not
imply to Twitter employees every single
one of these corporations is like a mini
socialist society
I'm not saying that in a good way by the
way I'm saying there is overwhelmed with
useless bureaucracy and you are not just
hired as an employee who's paid on the
basis of your like hourly wages you get
a fixed salary
and a host of benefits you get medical
coverage you get shit taken care of for
you sometimes they even provide lodging
for you it's like a whole campus that
you get you get access to this whole
campus a community I mean they really
cushion you and take you in and it's
almost like feudalism you like you
become part of the kingdom and like
that's your home turf so it's not you're
not some fucking proletarian who's being
abused right now because they're
expecting more of you you're not some
fucking proletarian you are a fucking
coddled salaried parasite who is given
all of these benefits you are part of a
cult if you're going to be part of
Twitter
then yes
you should be dedicated to making it the
best that it could possibly fucking be
and if you don't fucking want that why
don't you go work at Wendy's like the
rest of us go fucking work at McDonald's
like the rest of us you bitch fuck you
and suck my dick if you fucking think
these Twitter people are proletarian
workers they're not they're privileged
people the only fucking reason they
don't have to fucking work in factories
and they don't have to fucking work at
Wendy's like the rest of us when I say I
mean I'm a streamer whatever like you
guys the only reason Twitter employees
get to go to that fucking Twitter HQ and
have access to that all you can eat
buffet and have all these privileges
unlike you guys is because they're
supposed to be working on code they have
expertise you don't have because they're
educated all Elon Musk is doing is he's
trimming the fact he's cutting the fact
what about this does it make sense
right in China watch watch I I implore
you
look at the work ethic they have over in
China look at the type of Excellency
they promote at their fucking workplaces
in China then you'll fucking understand
where I'm coming from guys I have enough
experience to know
I have enough experience to know
you think shit in this world just works
a lot of retards have this mentality
Elon Musk you're not special Elon Musk
listen
you have no fucking idea how much shit
doesn't work and how much shit is broken
and how fucking lazy people are just
because of a lack of willpower it would
shock you if you fucking knew how much
willpower just the fucking ability to
like have a coherent vision and just be
like all right this is how we order it
this is how we do it here here and here
simplify everything I mean it no it's
always that simple a lot of people mock
Elon Musk because they're like
or Trump it's the same phenomena they
either mock Elon Musk or Trump like oh
you don't have expertise you're you have
such a baby brain you're simplifying the
problem no it is actually that simple
but these parasites over complicated
because they make excuses and they're
lazy all they do is produce excuses and
they're fucking lazy thank you so much
employment status of the urbanoid pmcs
they're fucking lazy and they just make
excuses all fucking day and that's it
and it the it's literally just like it's
so simple to solve the problem
but then these people sit around and
they make a bunch of fucking excuses
because they're lazy and because they're
incompetent because they lack will
there's a bunch of fucking couch
potatoes
I'm saying that as someone who has a
Mediterranean work ethic
even for my own work I still understand
you have to fucking have a coherent
vision of what you're fucking doing I'm
gonna make a bet
maybe in the short term Twitter's gonna
face problems because hundreds of people
resigned including people who I think
are necessary to for now thank you so
much Johnny
leftists say that us is a streamer I
promise you that Oz hustles way more
than Twitter employees or Starbucks
Baristas
I mean
thank you so much Johnny I mean uh
yeah I guess yeah I mean like in terms
of like how much of my day do I focus do
I use to focus
on
the work
on my work I mean yes obviously but
that's not necessarily makes me better
than them it's just like
that's because they have a shitty job
they don't care about and I don't blame
them for not caring about it but
it's like look a Starbucks barista
that's kind of a meme we don't actually
hate Baristas we just hate people who
are trying to use them as a model for
the proletarian worker
but I actually do hate the professional
managerial class you know I actually
these are these glasses wearing fucking
uh people at Twitter and shit these
people censored me they banned me these
fucking people censor us they ban us
they're responsible for all these
fucking corporate decisions to cultural
poison and evil and Corruption I do
fucking hate these people
and Elon Musk said we're just gonna have
it focus on engineering Engineers
engineering meat and potatoes focus on
the meat and potatoes trim all the
fucking fat I fucking agree
sick of these fucking parasites
are they um it's a home for so many of
you see look I'm gonna tell you this
Twitter is such
dude let me let me put it this way right
Twitter spaces you can't even use them
on desktop yet there's so much shit to
relax it's the way Twitter works it's so
in guys I'm gonna go on a grant as a
gamer right now I'm a fucking gamer okay
I noticed this around like 2016 and
Beyond the game company Microsoft they
adopted this kind of woke management
Paradigm of like oh we love our
employees oh the glass and it's all such
a nice lovely environment bring back
crunch bring back crunch bring back
crunch what is this shit
it takes them look look at look I'm a
Halo fan I play Halo these lazy fucks at
three four three it takes them three
years to do anything
if you're a gamer you will understand
this I'm not a gamer anymore but I was
one and I understand this shit takes
them like years to do anything now
fucking Halo 3 was made in someone's
garage or some shit and they just did it
because they fucking had the fucking
work ethic and they cared about doing it
now you look at fucking video games
today they all suck I wish I could still
you guys you guys think I'm not a gamer
anymore but for any moral reason
yeah gaming is gyno it is soy but I want
to be a hypocrite and I want to have
some fun playing video games I can't
because there are no good games there
are no good games
the way they used to make games back in
the day they put effort into that shit
now
they're like 343 is like oh my God guys
we just added the warthog to Halo you
know the thing we had in Halo 1 They
just added it where after fucking five
years they added it thank you so much
343 for your hard work this is I'm gonna
tell you I'm going to tell you the sick
truth of Silicon Valley okay
I'm gonna tell you the sick truth of
Silicon Valley these fucking nerds sit
around in their comfy offices and
there's nice bean bag chairs and there's
like all you can eat buffet and there's
video games and there's TV and Netflix
and there's yoga and they're doing all
this shit and they just sit around and
they barely work they barely do anything
and then when they're like all right

three weeks later hey Michael can you
please add that feature to Twitter I
told you to you got it and then and then
four weeks later hey did you add that
thing I told you to oh yeah like I'm
working on it and these fucking bro I'm
so sick of this shit like these gyno
nerds wake out of bed in their fucking
pajamas wearing glasses they have no
work ethic or willpower and there's like
oh I'll do it later oh and they're just
dude there's a if you understand what
I'm talking about you understand right
it's low T
do not yeah it's an adult day care don't
fucking compare these people to workers
it's so insulting to actual workers to
say that these people are workers
they're not fucking workers they are not
workers okay they are not fucking
workers these are the most lazy
incompetent fucks
in America and they are actual parasites
these are not fucking workers okay stop
fucking people like Twitter workers said
unionized against Elon dude you don't
know what you're talking about you sound
like a retard shut the fuck up there is
nothing problem I am more of a
proletarian than these fucking people
all right me who gets donations on
stream I am more of a proletarian than
them
okay because at the very least I don't
have a fucking Co I don't have a company
that just takes care of me and wipes my
ass for me I still have to get my own
health insurance and I still have to go
get my own shit I have to fucking you
know they don't subsidize my TR uh my
any commutes on my part they don't give
me any housing they don't fucking give
me any food I don't have access to a
fucking uh all-you-can-eat buffet
look I just have the money you guys give
me and nothing else that's it I don't
have benefits so I'm more of a fucking
worker than these fucking Silicon Valley
workers are employees at Twitter shut
the fuck up and stop comparing them to
workers it's fucking stupid
okay
and yes
the decline of manhood and the decline
of willpower this
woke culture has made people both lazy
and competent and retarded and I'm
talking about the educated classes they
have no grit they have no ambition
they're so fucking lazy it's disgusting
okay and there's nothing more
pro-working class than someone going to
Twitter and just like making everyone
work 72-hour days thank you the exact
same thing at the exact same time but
lips don't bat an eye thank you so much
humbled like yeah I do think thank you
Janna

impossible but someone Elon is asking
for yeah you guys noticed that when
Steve Jobs did it oh he's a creative
genius and he's a but now Elon is like

happened

socialist sure I believe that by the way
Steve Jobs didn't have workers thank you
so much Jennifer he didn't have workers
the workers were in Foxconn making is
the fucking iPhones and shit those
people designing Apple listen
okay Haas is I'm not I dream a lot and I
joke a lot so just want to be very clear

if you work at Twitter this is what I
think your working condition should be
sleep on the floor
and you only sleep for like six hours
maximum sleep on the floor
16 hour work day
every fucking second of your day should
be to make Twitter the best most
competitive Cutting Edge fucking clean
simple and efficient platform only
Engineers artists first of all know
no artists who wear glasses
actually this is what should happen it
should be like a home inspection
any one of these artists
who like have
um

I'm sorry I just gave me this triggered
something in me
but these entitled fucks are bitching
about Elon Musk saying that Twitter's
gonna be destroyed because we're gone no
bitch
Twitter might go down for a week I don't

on
because everyone resigned you're
replaceable you're replaceable and then
you're gonna get replaced with
Excellency people who are excellent and
you're gonna eat shit
you narcissistic fuck without us the
workers Twitter would be nothing no you
are the most replaceable fucking people
in the world because everything you do
is based on education you are fucking
replaceable no think about it you got
into Twitter because you got accredited
be from a fucking University you didn't
get fucking hired at Twitter because of
your talent you fucking worthless fuck
and you fucking banned me bitch
not only do I want you to be banned from
Twitter I want you to go to prison I
want you to be in fucking jail I want
you to be so fucking miserable you cry
every single day
fucking bitch
the most replaceable class of parasites
in America
are claiming we should give a fuck
because they were dying oh Twitter's
going down because Elon Musk shut the
fuck up
I'm fucking triggered now
you know what
I can't say what I really want to say
but I'm gonna
I can't say what I really want to say
so I'll just sing it
[Music]
I'm about to move
foreign
this is the end of History this is what
we've all worked for this is what
history concludes in this is what it is
this is what it is
these narcissistic dear I I am going to
write a think piece in the New York
Times
dear diary I stopped washing my vagina
for three weeks
and I'm actually liking the results I
fed my cat and I'm living in Brooklyn in
my apartment and I wear glasses and I am
so important in this world and I am the
most important person in the world and I
represent the American people I
represent America everyone is so
relatable to me everyone can relate to
what I'm saying right now and I go to
Brooklyn and I feel oppressed
I feel oppressed and I totally hate
capitalism because capitalism prevents
me from socially bureaucratically
controlling everything and micromanaging
everything with my glasses I want to be
a socialist be a leader who sits around
and enforces you know I'm saying these
retards this is why I love what you
almost said
he said we want to vote yeah Emma
bigland is like perfect example look
this is why I like what he almost said
he said we want to focus on engineers
I was like damn do people forget
people fucking forget that like dude you
put these people in charge
I guarantee you
everything goes to shit
because they don't understand like
there's there's material realities
this is not just a social discourse this
is not just something where you sit
around in a bean bag and I want to talk
about it bitch the only reason you can
talk is because you are fed by men with
Spears who go and fucking hunt the
Tigers and bring them back home
or soy retard same fucking mentality
like they somehow don't understand that
discourse doesn't fucking put food on
the table it's not it's meat and
potatoes
engineers at the very I mean I'm I'm
even more hardcore than Elon Musk
obviously because even to me the
engineers there needs to be a reset we
need to reset even the technical stem
Sciences I am a lysenkoist after all but
I can at least recognize how much more
primary
like being an engineer is for a software
company than these fucking people thank
you very useless job
I want to sit and talk about things I
would have didn't talk about things
fucking socialism
socialism man Elon Musk fucking unban me
dude
because Twitter is about to get so
fucking huge Twitter's gonna be a good
app I'm not even fucking kidding Twitter
is gonna be like I
mark my fucking words Twitter is gonna
work it's gonna be a fucking it's gonna
shit will get done man Twitter is gonna
be a great app I have no bro I'm gonna
buy Twitter stocks I have no fucking and
that's not because I think Elon Musk is
a genius it's just because I think
he's gonna rule it like a dictator and
he'll get things done
has has zero clue about productive labor
okay let's see Stephen Okawa you're not
gonna get in VC and debate Me by chance
are you so let's just debate you in text
format it emerges from what has been
said so far the productive labor is a
quality of Labor which in and for itself
has absolutely nothing to do with the
particular content of the labor it's
particularly usefulness of the specific
use value in which it is expressed
what's your point Stephen
the particular labor has no bearing on
what constitutes productive labor there
are about five orders of retardation of
what with the angle that you're coming
from first of all even if I were to
grant you that productive labor is not
necessarily that which transforms the
world and produces material wealth which
by the way would be impossible
tautologically speaking because it is in
the very indefinition of Labor to begin
with for March it has to have the
quality of transforming the world and
for Marx that is the origin of surplus
value Marx is very clear about that but
even if I were to concede to you that
there's nothing about Labor in
particular that has to have the quality
of like actually being materially
productive right
okay fine
then we have you have to prove first of
all that Twitter employees are wage
earners that's the first thing we have
to do the second thing you have to do is
that prove that Twitter's profits and
Twitter's revenue is directly a result
of a traditional process of classical
capitalist accumulation
based on units
Commodities that crystallize labor value
what commodity in particular
crystallizes the labor value of Twitter
employees please because the Starbucks
retards at the very least try and claim
that it's the cup of coffee in which the
labor is being crystallized and they're
wrong by the way but they at least have
that so in the case of Twitter what
commodity is their labor being
crystallized in that is for sale
where prove to me that Twitter produces
Surplus value can you do that
can you prove that Twitter is actually
involved in the production of surplus
value at all
please do that
Marx is clear that productive labor is
productive insofar as a produces Turbo's
value
dude do you not know what Surplus value
is Surplus value doesn't just fucking
mean profit Surplus value
is the formalization of material wealth
newly added material wealth
it's not just profit Surplus value is in
the aggregate it's a surplus value it's
not just profit redistributed from some
sector to another it's an aggregate
Surplus value that's all Surplus value
means
because value is in the aggregate level
dude I could I could argue with people
like okay Starbucks they're not
proletarians but like oh there's still
wage Learners and it's like they're
involved in the sale of a commodity it
seems like and there's a whole debate
there but Twitter employees being
fucking proletarians that's Insanity
that's a whole new level of insanity
wait and how yeah Twitter's losing money
where's the Surplus value
you're telling me a company that gets
its Surplus value from ad Revenue that's
um the that's that's ex that's that's
the labor value that's be that's not
circles value dude
you got to go back and read marks sir
for Marx productive labor can engender
the process of capital accumulation
which means it can engender MCM all by
itself
you don't need credit from hedge funds
you don't need BlackRock you don't need
the banks you need JP Morgan you don't
need to operate at a loss for three
years
there is an autonomous engendering of
the process of capital accumulation
because of the way labor is replenishing
capital
right
in no way does that describe Twitter I
mean it's a debate about whether that
describes anything in our society today
definitely not Twitter
Surplus value is shared throughout the
company please explain how Twitter
produces Surplus value can you do that
how is Twitter producing Surplus value
please explain how Twitter is producing
Surplus value I just I'd love to know
that
mm is the new process
okay how is MM produce Surplus value
explain
how does that produce Surplus value
because remember labor is the source of
surplus value
you can't just blame workers do what the
boss wants I'm not talking listen I am
going to because Twitter's job
is to be on my fucking phone and work
it's not doing a good job first of all
I'm getting banned second of all Twitter
spaces are junk
they're absolute fucking junk they're
trash
they don't even work on desktop I have
to get a special app for it to fucking
work
third of all
Twitter has so much limitations and so
much dumb bullshit
it's such a shitty working app
it's such a barely functioning barely
competent app
I'm talking from the perspective of
utility at this point
there are no workers at Twitter
okay there are none
there are no workers at Twitter
these not this this narcissistic class
of social parasites that is the
professional managerial class think they
are the model of all of America and they
represent all of America and they've
turned Twitter into a microcosm of what
they think Society should be and that
they've reached the end of history at
Twitter and the neon musk comes as hey
no we're going to actually make Twitter
competitive and make it better
We're not gonna sit around and lounge
around and be happy with ourselves bitch
go hit the gym you soy bitch you low T
cuck fucking Banning me you
bitch
Define why there are no workers at
Twitter because workers produce Surplus
value
I mean I could Define it to you in a
million ways thank you so much Chris all
motive Surplus value is artificially
synthesized through American imperialism
printing money and the whole point of it
is to violate the LTV thank you so much
where's Morlock I mean from a from a
socio-political perspective
I think workers are the people that do
the things that are like necessary
for any society to function regardless
of its cultural or ideological content
and that means the most important
workers are going to be at the bottom
in terms of their relation to the
proximity of the transformation of
nature
Surplus value is produced through a
buying and selling of Labor power
it's produced when s socially necessary
labor time is lowered to increase
Surplus labor time
no it's not retard you're just
describing one aspect of it it also has
a productive aspect
where
the conditions for the reproduction of
Labor power produce a material Surplus
which is appropriated as capital
and as a value in the form of money
as Surplus value
you're missing the part where it pays
for itself and more
where labor pays for its own cost and
produces a surplus just through the act
of buying labor power
because the cost of Labor power is the
conditions of subsistence of Labor
which not only pays for itself but
directly produces a surplus thereby
engendering the process of capital
accumulation so no just by having
employees doesn't mean you're producing
Surplus value having employees and
making a profit does not mean you're
producing Surplus value this is like
basic Marxism at a very I mean we're
talking like
very basic level of Marxism
yeah we've had these debates for so long
people still don't fucking get it no
you're not a worker because you're an
employee you're not in the Marxist sense
of the word you're not a proletarian and
the Marxist sense of the fucking word
because you're an employee especially if
you're not fucking salaried with a
million fucking benefits and you're
basically treated as like a fucking
member of a fucking Mafia family or some
shit
value circulates commonly spans but it
doesn't get exchanged between
Independent Producers
yeah but labor power is produced
which produces value
I don't know what your point is
n't everyone somewhat an employee no not
really
dude when you have a fucking campus and
an office you're like you're not a
proletarian I'm sorry you're not
you're not a worker in any meaningful
sense you're just not and then watch the
Retard that what about an oil rig
what about an oil rig has
those are comparable to the Twitter HQ
it's just an arbitrary difference has
it's the same thing
yeah totally it's totally the same thing
it's looking exactly the same thing you
know
it's totally comparable
we just have to get rid of our biases
just like how like you know
dude it's just like everything right
it's like anything else it's like
oh like dude why do men like not getting
pegged it's pretty much the same thing
it's just bias because men don't get
pegged it's biased right
like dude just wear a dress why don't
you dude it's just bias just wear a
fucking dress dude who cares toxic
masculinity it's fucking bias man
he's gonna debate you all right yeah
having the baby thank you at this point
Twitter runs itself the workers leaving
don't take the code with them if Elon
wanted he could just have people through
upkeeping people will still use it look
at Craigslist
yeah thank you so much Jennifer I really
agree I have I don't know why Twitter is
saying oh this is the end of Twitter now
no it's not why would it be I mean even
if it's going to be the end for a week
because of a labor shortage he can just
hire new people
Twitter's not going anywhere because
these fucking employees left
uh
he's gonna debate me though
I don't like men just paint their nails
we just do it because of like bullshit
arbitrary rules and by the way what's
wrong with incest it's just like
arbitrary man it's like what's wrong
with ins see anytime someone says oh we
it's bullshit we don't treat Starbucks
workers like workers because of
arbitrary cultural potion
all the things that you think are just
like cognitive biases or whatever
disgusting bugman terminology you
fucking people use
those are the things that actually
matter you're just a fucking bugman
retard who's trying to make people into
robots
bias is what makes us human and make
work the life meaningful there's no
reality without bias thank you PJ
Twitter woke traffic cops are paid what
the elite can afford to pay them rate
workers are paid what they Elite are
forced to pay them it's
that's so true
that's literally so true
like holy shit that's so true
that is such a good distinction honestly
the difference is that oil rig workers
are in a competitive labor market a real
competitive labor market
that's based on willingness to do the
labor
dude Stephen you're unbanned so get in
so cute
get in Shoku your own band stop wasting
our time
go ahead and get in so cute
let's go let's let's do it Barista 2.0

show cute just fucking click it
okay
hello
unmute yourself
unmute yourself
unmute yourself
it's not hard I promise it's not
just go ahead and unmute yourself
now speak
okay now we can hear you hello
how's it going Alice
so we're going how do how does uh how
does Twitter produce Surplus value
I'm getting an echo from you
um
I'm gonna ask it again how does Twitter
produce Surplus value
the same way that
in the same way that everyone produces
okay now explain it specifically in the
context of Twitter go ahead explain how
it works
they sell their labor power I don't
understand what's hard about that all
right so if I if I um
all right so if I
ask you
to wipe my ass for me and I pay you four
dollars to do it are you producing
Surplus value by wiping my ass
probably not it's not is this is this
some sort of capital Outlet I don't
think so okay so how are Twitter
employees producing Surplus value
because they're quote unquote labor
power is being purchased
is that how that happens
uh
yeah and then on a social aggregate yeah
that's how it happens
no that's it no you don't just purchase
labor power and then Surplus value gets
produced now that doesn't happen does it
repeat what you're saying all right
does labor power have to be crystallized
in a commodity
actual material product this is what
you're doing a commodity a commodity
yeah okay yeah okay so I'm gonna ask you
again
if since you understand Marxism
at the scale of Twitter how does Twitter
produce Surplus value please explain
you want me to explain like what what
what product they're like they're
actually output no no see you're acting
like a Twitter employee right now like
Elon Musk says Hey guys can you do this
and then you're just kind of like not
being direct okay
how does Twitter produce Surplus value
how is Purdue Twitter producing or how
is it involved in the production of
surplus value
I think it's pretty clear about what how
they did it
it's not clear to anyone but you then so
can you please explain it to us
oh they like apply for a job right has
you know you know
continue you know and then I'm not going
to get paid wages right and then they
get paid
and then they produce more value right
then they're getting paid in the former
wages but the specific but what I was
making the point is that the specific
labor
you I know you want to just pivot to
something else because of the diarrhea
you just gave us according to you
Twitter employees get paid a wage which
they don't by the way
and in return for their wage they're
adding more value than they take well
that's just a completely non-marxist
subjectivist kind of like arbitrary use
of the word value value has a very
specific meaning in Marxism so how
specifically are you defining value
right okay which way how are you
defining how are you defining value
the same way Marx defines it
which is what it's the direct
expenditure this direct expenditure of
Labor time during production means this
is how we're this is how nowhere those
marks Define it that way
you
you don't think value is the direct
expenditure of Labor time during
production process no
then what the fuck do you think it is
then why don't you read marks on what
value is
can you pull up capital and find where
Marx talks about it directly and just
read it out for us
because I think you have to go back and
brush up on your reading
so my definition it doesn't hold for you
then your definition has no basis in
Marxism no
then you provided you provide you
provide the definition then but hold on
I'm the one who asked you
I could I could just lay you the
complete I can just educate you right
now about why Twitter doesn't produce
Surplus value but the burden is on you
to tell us why it does you want to just
want an education lesson right now tell
us why it does well
is that we don't fundamentally disagree
on talking about
okay so I'll ask you how does Twitter
produce Surplus value
how how do the Twitter capitalists
um exploit Twitter workers
the same way literally every year okay
so so explain it and it's specificity
and the whole production process explain
it Twitter MCM explain it
there is there is no there is no C
anymore again if there's no C there's no
labor there's no anything so clearly
there's something
I don't know there's not because labor
power is no longer being expressed
anymore in in in this exchange so how is
it being exploited
if it's no longer fine fear it's no
longer finding any expression if labor
power no longer finds any expression in
anything
what is the conceptual utility of this
concept
sorry what is the conceptual utility of
this term
I'm sorry I'm getting so much feedback
from you I mean like the echo I can't
hear a thing you're saying
you can turn my stream often
yeah
wait so you can can I still hear you
yes
okay I can hear you now
you say something so I can I don't know
I'm just talking I can't hear it
okay how does Twitter produce Surplus
value go ahead
my point was not the Twitter producing
Circle as valuable okay so it does so
Twitter doesn't produce Surplus value
anymore
it could or could not it just meant so
it does sense so it does does it or does
it not
it may or may not I don't know okay so
you don't know so you don't I was making
my entire point in the chat again was
that you cannot decide what the fuck
productive labor is
yes I can I can very easily it is not
observable it is the whole point was it
is not it's definitely observable
definitely observable this is
productively go back to the fucking
quote then go back to the quote and read
it over and over again you cannot look
at a particular labor and say this or
that is an opportunity that's not what
he said he said you can't look at it
based on its use value
you can very easily see if a specific
form of Labor is productive or not in
terms of its relation to Capital how are
you determining this I'm wondering
because of the relationship it possesses
to the cap process of capital
accumulation
so if marks were alive today he would be
able to go look at one set of one set of
particular labors in another and we go
oh yeah that that's the one that's
producing Surplus value and this is yeah
I think so yeah
oh okay then you you you're smarter than
Marx
what can I tell you but I don't here's
the thing I don't disagree I'm not for
the Baristas or anything like that I
don't give a flying fuck about them hold
on all you said was that productive
labor cannot be determined on the basis
of use value
which is the particular qualities of
this or that labor so for example you
can't decide whether a certain type of
Labor is productive because you're
chopping down wood or because you're you
know producing steel but there is a
there is a constant here right that it
is labor first of all and it is
productive labor because it is
engendering the process of capital
accumulation
which means it's not just an expense
it's the source
the cost of the price of Labor
produces a surplus
sorry the price of Labor
um accounts
both for the conditions of the
reproduction of Labor
and in addition to that a surplus it's
very simple we know this we we yeah
so that means that means that means if
an Enterprise can augment its own value
okay we understand this okay what's your
point I don't know you're explaining
this is what's your point labor power is
the only thing so so there there are
there is a distinction hold on there is
a distinction
there's uh there's two possibilities
either you have to acknowledge there's a
distinction between productive labor and
unproductive labor that is operative at
a level that is observable
so being an employee for a company that
makes a profit is not enough to qualify
that job as a working class whatever
proletarian productive labor job and
their labor is being exploited you can't
make that judgment SEC or alternatively
you could say something like
Marx's critique of 19th century
capitalism no longer applies to the
present-day mode of production at all on
any level you can do one of the two what
you can't do is sit here and try to tell
us that Baristas or Twitter employees
are the Contemporary equivalent of the
working class that was the object of
Marx's analysis
in capital or anywhere else no I
wouldn't I wouldn't I wouldn't say that
okay
I wouldn't say I wouldn't sit there and
go oh yeah yeah this is this is exactly
how Marx
thought or what what he was directly
observing in fucking England or
something like that and that's not what
I would be saying do Commodities have to
be physical what I would be saying is
that you what I was saying is that you
and people like in your chat or
something like that are trying to like
fetishize these specific kinds of Labor
and say no no no these are the true
fucking working class yeah when this
true working class has been fucking
automated out of fucking existence
already that's not true that's literally
not true
they are a solid 20 percent of the
population still
98.50
one-fifth of people one-fifth of people
is not automated out of existence as a
matter of fact it's a higher proportion
of people than the amount of industrial
proletarians who existed in Germany or
France at the very same time of Marx's
writing so that's not automated out of
existence yeah yeah you're talking
relative probably the population growth
I understand that but like the action no
I'm saying 20 as opposed to ten or five
percent
most people are fucking farmers in
Marx's age and they're all and that
Labor's yeah that's correct so so 20 of
people are industrial workers or workers
as per Marx's definition and 80 let's
just say we haven't qualified them but
they're willing to say they're not
exactly that and your goal is to what
expand this make it make it make it
larger uh no my goal is to do the same
thing Marx did which is create a party
that represents the interests of this 20
percent
and that's it that your entire goal is
just to capture yeah to make a movement
of the working jobs whose jobs are
eventually going to be automated your
goals okay well talk to me when their
jobs are automated because it doesn't
seem like it's happening anytime soon
I don't think you're gonna automate coal
miners anytime soon
I just don't that's you're not gonna
automate oil rig workers or coal miners
uh anytime soon or construction workers
for that matter uh you can you can um
you don't think we can induce this we
don't think you can induce this at all
no I don't you really don't you don't
think shortening the work we can like
induce these people to stuff automate
themselves out of fucking existence
I I do not think there is any ability to
automate construction workers at this
time
at this time right but you don't you
don't disagree with the fact that if we
reduce the work week right for example
and if we reduce the amount of Labor
that in order for them to make up
profits they would have to introduce
Machinery right just like they did with
the 14-hour
bill in England in Marx's time which is
specifically what he's trying to get at
was that if you take away the question
yeah okay so now you're making it's
about something else well shorter hours
are not necessarily going to induce a
revolution in the forces of production
just because people want to make profit
doesn't necessarily mean they're going
to succeed at revolutionizing the
productive forces Henry Ford wasn't
operating on a utilitarian for-profit
basis he was a Visionary so was Thomas
Edison or maybe Thomas Edison so was
Nikola Tesla uh from whose technology
Edison was derived so the idea that
Automation in this Paradigm changing way
like completely automating
revolutionizing the productive forces
first of all is on the basis of profit
to begin with
I would contest that view
um it's more of a his it's like it's not
any Revolutions in the forces of
production are no more a result of
um
the Quest for profit then Revolutions in
the Sphero philosophy or art or anything
else
so finally
um you know you also have to keep in
mind and point out that
there's relative Automation and then
there's a kind of more absolute
automation which would be able to
account for replacing the 20 percent
that we're talking about so a relative
form of automation that can be induced
by competitive pressures but those kinds
of automation
already exhaust the threshold of a given
society's productive forces they don't
revolutionize the productive forces they
draw out existing Technologies and
nearly expand them because of
competitive pressures that's all that
does for example Henry Ford's methods of
production
did expand because of competitive
pressures right throughout all of
society but they didn't originate in
competitive pressures so there's a card
before the horse type of thing
you realize Autumn you realize
automation like investment went up
during like the coveted lockdowns
because labor hours essentially dropped
I I can test the view that our society
is any more automated than it ever was
ever in history automation's always
relative you can you can test the view
that it's any more yes automated even
though that investment has like doubled
yeah because automation's always
relative it's always a relative thing
tractors automated Society
and then they engenders new forms of
Labor
you're saying right now we couldn't have
a shorter Work Week than we did 90 years
ago relative to the technology
we could have a one-hour we could we
could have always had a shorter work
week we could have always had one
it's not that's not because of
Technology
what do you mean that's not because of
Technology what that's what it mean no
it's not
um if
the if we had the material capability to
it's it's not related to technology at
all if it's more no it's not it's real
it's more a sociological thing it's
related to geography too many people are
still living in the countryside engaged
in other forms of production so when you
short shorten the work week you need to
have more people engaging in specific
forms of Labor Society needs to be more
socialized and organized that's probably
what's going that's probably the only
obstacle
in any points in history of shortening
the amount of hours we will work a day
but there it's not because of technology
or automation you don't think shortening
the work week for example in the United
States would cause an outflow of at
least Capital flight to the places that
need this Capital so they can develop so
we have like this excess like of capital
that's flowing into Washington DC
wouldn't we want to cause Capital flight
on some level like why wouldn't Capital
flight hold on Capital flight where
do these third fucking rape countries
that need to actually be developed that
don't have the like symmetrical uh
development of the productive forces
there's no way that assorting the
shortening of the work week will happen
in the United States
without already having assumed power
what do you what do you mean what do you
mean you have to be a policy choice
who who has control over selling their
labor power the government or us
who's us
meaning anyone who fucking works anyone
who doesn't know are they going to be
organized through unions to do this who
what is going to be the institution I
don't think Union should have any party
okay so what it what institution will
organize the workers to do this
well I think like you said there has to
be some like party at some level that
has to get people on board with this all
the marxists and all the Communist
organisms you realize that all that this
thing would only be possible at the
lever of state power
to reduce the work week yes
how so
they introduced and they introduced a
30-hour workweek bill in 1930 and they
killed it what's what what possible what
possible interest because it would
entail a radical reorganization of
society of course we'd have to we'd have
to direct it would it would require some
planning definitely yeah no shit that's
like anything for Organization no I mean
seriously it would first of all the
service industry needs to be destroyed
um they're actually I agree there has to
be a immense destruction of capital
McDonald's has to be boiled down uh
bulldozed down us this would require an
immense reorganization of society to
make the capitals fight each other I
don't understand like what's so hard to
understand about this like you make
capitals engage within competing with
each other those are the ones those are
the people that we like want to like get
into an all-out armed conflict no no I
think it would be very easy for
if you're already in power you could
probably just appropriate
these corporations
appropriate what I don't understand what
you're saying if they're if there
there's a fall if there's a fall in late
in labor time right in fall and labor
hours they're gonna have to make that up
somehow and then only the only way
they're ever going to reinvest and the
only reason they're not getting their
profits from labor but they're not
getting their profits from labor
you realize you realize our service
industry
um is not based on any necessities of
capital or anything like that it's it's
literally just it's all it's based on
the bullshit minimum wage and full
employment and bullshit I understand
this but it's like so we yeah I agree
but we have to get rid of them but they
I don't even think they even constitute
like the mass of worthless labor that
exists in society like you can get rid
of all fucking federal employees too
they're the largest employer in the
fucking in the nation so why like why do
we have to take over state or just to
fire every like fire everyone
no to Institute a plan for the one hour
a day that people will work to actually
be productive labor for society
I I still don't understand this
disconnect between like why you have to
take over the state in order to do
something that everyone can do because
it is because okay
so you you and you alone has and
everyone in your fucking chat and
everyone fucking who's a little dirty
Barista and everyone fucking like
Twitter just showed up they can quit any
fucking time they want
there have to be some if we all agreed
on this there would have to be some
organizational sure uh
yes okay so there has to be an
organization that can mobilize
minimum millions of people for this to
work right explain to me why this has to
be done at the level of the state okay
well you agree I just want to be clear
because I want to just understand what
level of reason we're on here clearly
you don't just think
prostheticizing people to quit their
jobs
on the Internet is going to amount to
anything you understand that it says to
be political so it has to be a political
movement at the very least right
it has to be some sort of organizational
movement yeah of course but I don't
think that I but I you can't even get
fucking all these groups to agree on
anything okay so so what you're what
you're saying it sounds like
you know you would have a situation
where uh uh uh a Tribune of the people
like the Communist Party would Lobby
for the policy change of creating a
let's say you know
what did you say uh um
a one hour a day whatever whatever you
want it to be slashing it in half
what did you say how many hour work week
let's just let's just throw out a number
let's go with keynes's number 15 hours
by fucking 20 30. okay 15 hours
so this this policy proposal gets
lobbied
to the government
why do we need to Lobby them this is my
this is what I don't understand
like like why do we need to Lobby the
government to fucking have a strike like
a permanent strike a strike that never
fucking okay so so hold on so we're
going to initiate a mass strike of how
many workers
as many as you can fucking get okay
let's say it's a million workers
okay million workers whatever if you're
lucky
yeah and they're gonna do it and they're
gonna say we're going on strike until we
have a 15-hour work week
what do you mean until
you don't have to fucking ask them
permission to fucking do anything I
don't understand this like you we don't
have to fucking ask them permission okay
so so you just want people to go on
strike forever what do you want
yeah Until It Breaks the fucking
capitalism absolutely dude okay so hold
on dude you're like a G oh dude you're a
genius
so you're saying all we have to do to
have a revolution is to have like a
hundred million people go on strike who
knew it could be that easy dude it's not
that easy I'm saying that there's these
this is exactly what something but why
what are you what are you what are you
why would they want to go on strike who
is it what how are you going to convince
millions of people to go on strike
I don't know how the fuck
you're gonna go for Maga communism
um the building a com a Maga communist
movement first of all begins with
waging the class struggle in politics so
you're going to get millions of people
to be drawn in to a Maga communist
movement by attaching to them the
political identity that reflects their
class interests so that's going to be
that's going to reflect on them
this is just Vanguard Theory right yeah
I mean I I mean I I mean you caught me I
am a Marxist leninist so yeah
you don't think these people are capable
of you have to educate these people
that's what you're saying to
um you have to at the minimum organize
them into a political movement yes
yeah but that's the again this is like
this is that starts with anything that
you want to achieve is organization
right so why why can't the aim just be
organized organized and then organize
with this one specific person why is
this why do you have this additional
step of oh we also have to take state
power and then do what with this state
well because hold on I was because when
I S when I hear shortening the work week
I'm thinking about like
deepening we already have an eight-hour
work because I was like I'm sorry eight
hour work day it's like okay we would
Institute a one hour
work day well that would require an
immense that would require a sweeping
and immense level of organization across
Society
what if you could just demonstrate it at
the level of a major city first
but if what if Mega communism takes over
some shithole fucking Democratic City
like fucking Detroit which has enormous
fucking bureaucracy I think I think well
wouldn't that just result in a capital
flight out of that City into some other
part of America and then they could say
like oh this was like a failure yeah
what do we care what do we care about
why why do we care about Capital like
what is that I'm just saying like it
would be used as an example to scare
people around the it'd be bad Optics
right people would be like yeah don't do
this unless you wanted those it would be
bad obviously if we reduce the size of
the government and and got got
government off people's back lower taxes
if you turned if you turned uh got rid
of all these fucking worthless publics
dude if you turned if you could why
can't that be a model for other cities
dude
if you turned like Salt Lake City into
Liberia it would scare people okay turn
it into Liberia it would be chaos it'd
be like poverty
what do you mean but what do you mean by
that turn it into fucking Liberia like
it's the chaos it'd be like a breakdown
of society
I mean giving people giving people
control back over their lives is society
is is chaos like saying hey you don't
have to send your kid to this fucking
shitty ass Public School you we're gonna
get we're going to shorten the work week
for you in this place and you can
actually educate your children dude but
if there's major Capital flights Army
getting rid of cops and arming arming
the citizens that would be chaos all
right so again a given city is connected
to a grid
so farms for example are not in the city
so they get their food outside the city
they also get that like their energy
grid is not necessarily always within
the city their whole supply chain is
outside of the city so if you take over
a city
um it's very easy for that City to be
starved out and choked out and that'll
lead to a breakdown of society and
they'll produce chaos of course it will
you you think that we wouldn't be able
to feed the people in the city
like the like the largest epicenter of
like we're like a concentration of
capital like we wouldn't be able to
be able to happen no I don't because
you're gonna no because all capital is
gonna leave and you're gonna have to
actually produce food and shit
okay if that's what you think sure
man I guess I'm not gonna argue with you
there but like I don't think that's what
would happen
like I don't so what do you think would
happen
um I think we you have to demonstrate to
other cities like what is pop like what
is actually possible and like what is
possible with less government a shorter
word so how are you gonna pitch so
government employees what I was like God
I'm sorry good
I agree with you generally about firing
all the government employees and shit
but when you when you're trying to make
it an organization or a mass movement on
this basis
that has to be a positive program you
can't just
say I want to abolish everything and
then
what makes that different from Chas
was just a fucking unorganized shithole
that like fucking like like you can make
it your for example you can make it your
platform you can make it your minimal
program and say
this is what we're pitching to the
American people slash
the government
why are the fire government employees
smash the bureaucracy
um shorter Work Week sure you can do
that as a political program yes I can't
why can't you just why can't you
implement it though otherwise I'm asking
you like why why it's the same reason
you can't Implement anything else at all
there's nothing there's nothing you
can't Implement a political program
outside of politics and it is a
political program
yeah in this instance it's not it's not
like a uh it's not like a uh
it's not like a hashtag on Twitter where
you're just gonna like
yeah in this instance I'm giving you an
example of it like something that is
demonstrably political that's what I'm
saying it's like you have to like
demonstrate that it's I I want to I want
to explain this so America has about
like what 300 million 70 million 80
million people yeah yeah
hundreds of millions of people
and the way this many people exist in
the same territory is that they're
already organized by a government that
the state is already the sphere of the
organization of the people so they're
already organized
so
when you talk about voluntarily and
implementing these sweeping
programs that are at the scale of a
state
you have to account for the way in which
people are already organized
which is through the state and through
politics that's why it's political
that's why you can't just have people
just wake up
and like oh full communism now let's
just do it well I mean like it doesn't
work like I don't think it would be full
I don't think it would be I know I'm
just saying for as an example it's just
not how it works I don't I don't I don't
disagree I don't disagree with the idea
that like people would wouldn't like be
like super
uh Jarred by this but it would be had to
be something that they would have to
agree to I'm not saying you you were
imposing this on that right but the
reason I said
you can only do it at the level of state
power
is because you mean do you mean like the
federal level is this what you're
talking about like actual like in
Washington going to Washington DC and
doing this
no I mean like through a proletarian
dictatorship
okay and how and how are you going to
achieve this through uh it's part of
like a medical program like we're gonna
have a one-hour work day and we're gonna
organize society around this and
concentrate different forms of capital
and different Investments to make sure
that life can
work around this new way of life
people will have the free time to you
know they'll have access to a common
pool of social sorry of societal Capital
to draw from in their free time for
their own Endeavors
um and there would be maybe a mandated
one-hour work week at like either
state-owned Enterprises for heavy
Industries or some kind of state private
partnership comparable to China who
knows
um can you think this and you think the
state has to what exists for how long
like how long does the state have to be
here
um this is what I'm wondering probably
for as long as any state in the world
exists
meaning what I mean this is what that is
I guess that's what I don't understand
is like why we need this like why the
state isn't just entirely superfl to us
at this point just because just because
of these current exists the current
formation of like how people like exist
under in and interact and and are
incorporated into society like under a
state like why can't we just move like
why why is moving beyond that attack
thing I'm wondering like why or not bad
thing why is that this not considered
like a pot like a
something that's not at least immediate
that could be done immediately like
um because that's not that's not how
human history and civilizations work
there's still going to be a class
struggle there's still going to be
um you know a pers a Persistence of
social antagonisms well into the future
those will not immediately be resolved
because of a you know a victory at the
level of seizing power
well I don't disagree with that there
wouldn't be areas that wouldn't be like
do you do we at least agree that like
we can get prices
go to zero like do you really
fundamentally agree with that like
prices
yeah like if there's a there's a
mechanism for this do we at least like
fundamentally agree like I I don't know
what do you mean
the destruction of the World Market I
don't think so no
right no I don't I don't think so you
don't so you don't think the prices will
ever be zero no no no no no no no
eventually wages for example
eventually I don't I think that money
will cease to exist of course let me
have money does he's doing this it's
like the way Mark defines okay okay
eventually I think that um
any formalization of value at all will
cease to exist
right
okay so we least agree on that I mean I
mean this is like eventually but
probably like you know 100 or 200 years
from now something 100 or 200 fucking
years yeah I don't if I do not foresee
this as anything uh what that will span
a generation probably a few Generations
that's wild to me that you don't think
that I mean the world is a is a big
place
and
you have to understand human history
is not over
these civilizations India China the
Islamic world I mean this is all not
resolved okay it's
this is all an ongoing reality of I
think there will be zones that will be
like non-free price zones like in like
once there's been established a place
where their prices don't exist like
there there will be zones like that in
the world still like I don't know how
long though again I have no I couldn't
tell you how long that would last but I
think that that's reasonable to predict
that like there will be zones still
where prices still operate
I think but why but why would you want
to live there I guess my question is
like why would you or why wouldn't you
want groups that are just made for
nothing made for free or just coming off
a fucking atom for fucking machine
somewhere
I don't believe in fully automated
luxury communism ever being I don't
think everything could be necessarily
fully necessarily automated either but
like we could automate a fucking ton of
shit at this point and like the amount
of use values that are come out of a
fucking machine are
you know I I don't I don't actually
think we are living in a society of
automation I think we're living in a
society of information and people
confuse the two all the time but it's
not the same thing
uh information seems like it's
automating things but it's not it's just
taking out the element of
you know um I guess
uh manual forms of information which
span a huge part of the supply chain in
the workplace
but automation
is not as big as you think it is
it's also very expensive like these
factories that are automated for cars
for example
they're pretty prevalent they're also
very costly to maintain and they're also
like there's also a lot of problems that
come with them right
I think it's extremely over
um
typed
automations are over hyped yeah I think
it is
okay I mean I I mean I I think the more
the better but I don't it's like I guess
that's what I don't understand is like
it's uh I think what you see more is not
so much an automation of anything but an
augmentation
of things of labor labor
it never fully becomes automated though
yeah I guess there's some like there's
some degree of uh like truth or that
we're like we we become appendages to
the machines rather than
like for example the tractor didn't
automate Farm labor it augmented it
right but there are I mean but there are
Autumn like automated almost all fully
automated farms at this point I mean
they're not prevalent but there are
again
could we get from one end of the supply
chain to the other thank you so much in
Automation and Manufacturing my entire
life it's so far away from the Sci-Fi
utopianism it isn't funny
um I think the problem with the Paradigm
of automation is that I think it's still
based in benthamite utilitarianism which
is to see I don't think we can speed up
this process though like I'm not talking
about like I'm not like no I I think
it's just a it's a completely
misconception of the relation between
mechanization and labor
even though it's about even though it's
destroyed like a tremendous amount of
Labor and like you know that is nothing
new
um the steam engine destroyed just as
much of amount of Labor it's not new but
it's it's it it's rapidly increasing no
it's not it's not
how could you say it's not rapidly
increasing like we just saw proof of it
during again the coveted lockdowns why
do we like why do we like why is this
even an argument like removing labor
from the market induces more automatic
investment in automation like this is
not like a what did what did covet
automate
ramped up their automation like tenfold
like like like the even Japan like
they're the cost of Robotics keeps going
down like in relation to like labor so
it's like I don't understand like how
this cannot like be
I don't know why this is like a uh
controversial statement so what kind of
automation did China ramp up during
covet
mostly medical stuff because of
obviously it doesn't surprise me
yeah right exactly but like I mean
that's the field that like I mean but
the medical field as you know is not
a sphere of uh doesn't produce material
wealth
what do you mean by that like it doesn't
produce medicine it doesn't produce it's
not materials
it's just uh the maintenance
of
producers
so you're saying we don't have any scale
of Automation in industrialized
countries that can produce even just the
basic modicum of material wealth no for
one hour work week right now
we can have a one hour work week because
I'll tell you why we can do it because
we can just have people rotating shifts
to do the actual productive labor that
we need and spend the rest of their time
doing what they want that's definitely
possible
but in terms of it being because of
automation it has nothing to do with
automation
but there does have to be some level
like some some some like General State
of Science and Technology and
methodology and knowledge can I can I
try and put it this way I want you to
think of automation as a uh a Gundam do
you know what gundam is
no I'm I mean the anime
no I don't watch everything I don't
either but they had toys so were you
ever there was a TV show
like okay called gun is just like power
it's like Power Rangers
I think there's something like that in
there it's like a big robot you get in
the mecca suit okay
okay all right fine so like Mecca
Godzilla right
Pacific Rim did you watch that
now
so automation
when it's at a small level is like a
small suit right
and it accounts for a very
um
it's it accounts for a small quantity of
time and the overall metabolism of the
economy
and when you increase automation
the the
um
cycle of machinic production
encompasses more time and more of the
metabolism right
but
that does not actually shrink the amount
of Labor
all it does is increase the scale
of the mechanization
who's beginning and end is still based
in labor
so think of it as
the size of a mech suit it gets bigger
and bigger and bigger but there always
has to be a person in the mech suit
okay again this is probably more helpful
if I knew what the fuck
uh x square but it's like a robots for
you get in and pilot
okay there always has to be someone
inside of it without that there it the
whole thing cannot
it doesn't Auto initiate anything
no I'm not suggesting that like there's
going to be some Auto initiation of this
like someone just put like a George
Jetson style that's what I'm familiar
with George Jetson style where he just
pushes a button and the whole fucking
world just moves all of a sudden that's
not what I'm talking about but we are we
are definitely talking about less labor
being able to
you know
push forward more me like control more
means like that or at least be able to
tap into more means like right like
right like
on some level because like it can't just
be a one-to-one relation what do you
mean
meaning less meaning less labor right
like one hour work week or whatever it
is we'll be able to be just as
productive as what we think 40 hours of
Labor is today relative to that specific
form of Labor yes
obviously yeah and I also do what about
you like the labor
I'm sorry what'd you say what about the
new forms of Labor that will inevitably
arise around
life in relation to this I don't think
there's any trans-historical
labor time
no neither do I I don't I don't think
there's any trans I don't think labor as
we even considered automation creates
new forms of Labor
that we're not automated that were not
automated before and cannot be automated
and by the time they can be automated a
new form of Labor has already risen
yeah I guess I guess this is the getting
out of the territory of like
what is it called infinite regress or
something like that where there's just
more like you can never get down to like
this finite point of
being like zero or something like that
zooping zero labor and that's not what
I'm saying I'm not saying like there's
ever going to become a time where like
there's going to be absolutely zero
labor
that's not my argument my argument is
that we can reduce it to a bear absolute
minimum
I agree and we can continue to continue
to do that and like and it's not even
based on the amount of it's not even
based on automation that wouldn't even
be right I agree
my argument would be like what I think
Marx's argument would be which is with
that like
conditions for communism are when labor
and capital are just entirely
Superfluous to production
does that make sense
um when wage labor and capital yes yeah
yeah yeah yeah like the labor and
capitalist the purple is to production
itself yeah I agree
okay
cool great I'm gonna I mean I'll guess
I'll I mean that's the only thing I
really want to argue about argue about
because I didn't I didn't really
understand this argument about like
uh
um
yeah I don't care about Baristas and I
don't give a fuck about any of these
other
people are unions or whatever I just
don't understand I just didn't
understand this this distinction we were
making like why wouldn't we just want to
get everyone on board with reducing
hours of Labor like that's for me
anyways that's
all right
cool well
I guess I'll go this is nice talking to
you yeah
later
I was not expecting that guy to be a
jehu guy
I just wasn't
but uh I will say
um
I think I think a lot of problems
come from Bentham in general like when
it comes to socialists Marxist trying to
understand things
this includes Paul Cox shot actually
with his like idea that super computers
can solve the calculation problems just
in general just feel like okay if we can
do this in physics why can't we do it in
reality
because you're kind of leapfrogging over
the world of
symbolic social meaning sounds stupid
and meaningless but that's everything
right
Bentham is a utilitarian so he's already
conceiving the world as ready-made
before a kind of
rational subject trying to
become the most resource efficient
whatever but
the truth is is that
um
I always like to say this
we're not out here just living
as human beings
we're not just like animals breathing
and living we have to have meaning it's
all about meaning the world of meaning
we don't go to war
because of like utility we go to war
because of meaning the world of meaning
right
um
it's that that realm is not resolved and
it's not and by no means is that
reduction sorry is that by no means is
that reducible
to anything at the level of like okay
what is the exact physical or natural or
technological
significance of this
I I we should return to the Bible Bible
over Bentham is my new slogan Bible over
Bentham right
because of you based on Revelation
recognizes
the question of meaning to be one that's
unresolved
can't take it for granted and then start
bent them
you know
utility maxing you know that's Bentham
utilitarianism
I mean why is there even politics right
think about it
it's a good question
why does politics even exist isn't it
all stupid
well it's because we want certain
policies
no that's how benthamites think right
it's not because of policy at all
based thank you so much guys is that
they have too much confidence in
technology and seem to think it's all
possible short term
I can't speak for like jehu guys in
general thank you so much Chris but I
just think in general a lot of people
presuppose Bentham
Bentham uh
utilitarianism
which I think is a big mistake
I think why I say Bible over Bentham why
do I say that
I think there's something to it
Zizek slavo ZX notion of ontological
incompleteness
I think there's a relationship
tangential one but a relation it points
in the direction at least
of the revelatory tradition
what is important about the revelatory
tradition
um as opposed to the kind of rationalism
of the Enlightenment if you want the
utilitarianism
not I'm not trying to miss obfuscate or
mystify anything which is what a lot of
people do when they bring up religion in
general
but I think the significance is that
the socius is unresolved there is
somehow an antagonism
an imminent antagonism at the heart of
the socius
out of which all meaning is derived in
relation to
and is even reference referential toward
metronomically
all of our social meaning
points toward these
the dark heart
of an irreducible antagonism
which in religious terms you could
Define as the sublime
of Revelation
but this one antagonism
reconciles
everything the whole of History the
whole of reality the whole of being
everything
and Society
symptomally relates to that one
antagonism
if you want to call it an antagonism
it's called an antagonism from the frame
of reference of the Enlightenment
but from the frame of reference of the
rest of History it would be called
something like
the absolute
right
God
if you will
put it this way
the class struggle
what is the objectivity of the
proletariat and of the bourgeoisie what
is their objectivity
they share the same object
because their object
is manifested in the very
distance between them
sorry not manifested is the wrong word
but it's
it's existence
where it's given expression
foreign
things form in relation to their object
and this object is singular
I'm confused as to why you think we can
calculate Surplus value
at the level of individual workers
okay you can calculate it at the level
of social workers
how are Twitter employees
workers in any sense
if Twitter doesn't even produce Surplus
value at all
so in Marx's within Marx's frame
Surplus value and labor is aggregate I
agree but there is still
at the local level and explain
explanation for how that happens
how that process happens
it's not some mystery
that's how on individual sectors you
can't
you can determine
marginal contributions to the um
marginal and relative contributions to
the aggregate Surplus value
like this does not produce Surplus value
but
re-distributed this one does produce it
yada yada
no rev you're wrong
because socially necessary labor time
has to itself be defined
it's not theoretically defective just
because the determination of which
sectors are productive and which ones
aren't is retro causal
it's because it has to be made from the
perspective after the fact doesn't mean
it's theoretically defective
oh man lower back hurts so much
um
otherwise I'm gonna unlist the stream
and it's not done yet but I'm just
telling you I am gonna
because this was just like a chill
stream we did and tomorrow I'll
hopefully stream much earlier
but I forgot what I was gonna say with
Elon Musk all I really wanted to say I
guess
was congratulations to Elon Musk for
firing these fucking social parasites
you'd have a chair that has back support
um this one
is dog shit for my back 100 percent
it's a good stream no I know it is I
just
on the algorithm I don't want it to like
be on the algorithm why on this because
when it's on the algorithm it's like
it gets it fucks my shit up when it gets
added to the algorithm right
thank you so much our will sorry for the
Sidetrack question but do you use any
pre-workout stuff no
not at all
anyway guys
thank you so much our well appreciate
you
all right guys we had a chill stream we
had a good stream
but anyway
but anyway
but anyway but anyway
but anyway
but anyways I was going to say
um there's one way in which I do
empathize with the Twitter proletarians
the capitalist Elon Musk is exploiting
and firing
and the reason I think there were
