This all you got? Further idealism?
You seem to not grasp meaning of the term “idealism.” Would you like a dictionary?
Seems like that’s all you’ve got dictionary definitions and Wikipedia pages. Have you read any books?
And yes the ideas you espouse are idealist because they aren’t based on an objective look at how things actually develop and fall back to reductive phrases like “human nature”
Throughout human history, the general pattern is dominance hierarchies form, wealth accumulates and eventually the system collapses. Previous collapses, people were able to disperse and live somewhat egalitarian lifestyles but the interdependence created by global neoliberal capitalism means there is nothing to fall back on. Self-termination (extinction) is the most likely path.
That’s what you call ideal? What is wrong with you?
Brother you literally cited capitalist realism like it supports your claim when the guy who coined the term was a LITERAL SOCIALIST HIMSELF. You’re not educated about anything.
Other economic systems fell as a result of contradictions between classes. The roman empire fell because there were no lands left to pillage and no slaves left to misuse. Feudalism fell because the peasants wanted to be free labourers and the lords wanted money and not agricultural products. Capitalism WILL fall because there are contradictions between who owns the means of production and those who are subject to it. This contradiction is being accelerated by climate change and the global south is experiencing the brunt of this.
Shut the fuck up and do some reading
You don’t even know what the term idealism is😂🫵. You think I’m using it to call a system great or something. You’re a halfwit!
Capitalism falls to what? What replaces the system? Technofeudalism?
You are so propagandized you have no idea what I said, the type of system does not matter in so far as it is a dominance hierarchy.
Capitalism falls to whatever solves the contradictions between the working class and the owners of capital. Most likely some form of socialism
Your dominance hierarchy has nothing to do with this. The working class has the revolutionary potential, so it is necessarily the working class who will seize the means of production and we end up with socialism. That is Marxism in a nutshell
Vulgar Marxism, and history has already shown the masses are an inertial force. The ideal circumstances for socialism was last century, only dominance hierarchies formed.
Ideological delusions to think otherwise.
Capitalist Realism, M. Fisher.
You didn’t read the book and yet claim you know the contents. Lol.
That quote undermines nothing of what I’ve said😂. You’ve taken Fisher out of context like most idiots do. The point of capitalist realism is that the ideology of anti-capitalism and capitalism sustains itself because people are led to believe so. Capitalism fails all the time, like when the market crashes, but governments bail them out because to them that’s just how it is. To them the system can’t fail because they can’t fail because they can’t envisage another outcome.
Capitalism realism is just an extension of Marx’s theory of false consciousness. Which is when the actions of the proletariat do not align with their actual class position.
This is why it is necessary to sensitize the working class towards socialism, otherwise, capitalism realism happens, where people convince themselves there’s no other alternative. It’s a diagnosis of a problem, but dimwit ms like you misquote Fisher.
You should probably explain what you mean, because I already stated that ideological fantasy does not determine objective reality.
That is the exact opposite of “idealism” you dolt.
Your brand of idealism is that capitalism is unbreakable. That we’ve reached the final stage of history. This is fatalistic and therefore idealism. Go to school kid
I spelled out that it will collapse, what replaces it is eventually another dominance hierarchy if we escape extinction.
Sorry bucko, no socialist utopia in any future.
The dominance hierarchy is one where the proletariat rules over the bourgeoisie. After that we end class altogether. You’re way out of your depth here
Are you a vulgar Marxist?
That makes sense.
No idea what that means pal sorry
