and marx was the first person to point out (when he was telling people like
you to go fuck themselves) that he wasn't trying to set up a theory with
immutable laws, but a way of understanding that could be applied to capital.
he'd be the first person to try to update his theoretical work in order to
understand the changes that have happened, and he's consider fuck-heads like
you to be masterabatory half-wits (since he considered fuck-heads like you
to be thus even in his lifetime... so i guess that's an aspect of his
analysis that would prolly stay the same, come to think of it). i would, of
course, agree with him.

besides, endless talk about cattle ranching in central america or whatnot is
pointless if you don't even know what the hell capitalism is (which you
obviously don't, as every word out of your mouth has shown -- i mean, sure,
maybe you have an inking of what capitalism was like in 1848, but you
know... things have changed a little... you should try to catch up). which
is why marx started with the early theoretical work, and then moved on to
factories in breat brittan, etc.

as for real struggles: i'm actually, you know, involved in them (c'mon, say
it with me: in-volved... i knew you could), which is why i engage in this
activity: to try to understand what's going on so i can be more effective at
being (careful now) involved. maybe you should try to actually be involved,
you might learn something (i mean: actually being a communist is fun and
challenging, you should give it a whirrl sometime, if you not worried about
having a nazi put a gun in your face again).

but i suppose lenin's ivory tower is just too appealing.

interesting that you skipped commenting on actual involvement, and went back
to your usual rhetorical nonesense... but that's typical of leninists (read:
capitalists), i suppose.

oh no... wait, i mean: intellectually vacuous nonesense. sorry about that...

have you ever seen the movie "the princess bride"? its interesting cause
there's a guy in it much like you, who keeps saying the word
"inconcievable"... eventually one of his compainions says "you keep using
that word, i do not think it means what you think it means". yeah, he's a
lot like you...
