first of all thank you so much and good work! some of the things you mentioned are not in the chapter. or is it just me? can't find the part about when the hour and minute were invented, nor much of much of what you mentioned about medieval times and colonial societies, nor the power struggles of the bourgeoisie and the landed aristocracy during 1820. is it possible you brought this information from somewhere else?

The thing you said about the struggle between the landed aristocracy and the new industrialists was very interesting, but I don't remember reading about it at all in this chapter. Are we readijg different versions of the book? Is it extra context you are giving that isn't in the book? Did I somehow skip it?

Thanks! I don't know yet if or when I'll continue with the book, but rn I need a little break from Marx (I love reading him, but he's not easy😄) -R

John Maynard Keynes was talking about a 15-hour work week for grandchildren back in the 1930s. We are creating unnecessary work and waste with planned obsolescence.

Would the presenter agree that the more surplus value they accumulate, and the more power they have to purchase elections the less agency, and input they have in deciding the fate of millions? I think Marx would call this ideology. If he would not call that it would be ideology nevertheless.

@ChapterbyChapter 4 жыл бұрын

The lines here are blurred and Marx's writing style switches a lot too. In some chapters he's more descriptive/positive, in some he's more normative/ideological, chapter 10 is definitely one of the more normative chapters. As to your personal question, sorry, I don't really wanna answer that since I try to stay unbiased -R

@@ChapterbyChapter You would find it an epistemological mistake or at least risking too big a leap of faith was one to agree with the question I presented. That is fine. I appreciate you taking the time to answer my question. I would have to say though to deny that degree of clearly measurable agency on the part of capitalist does risk agreeing with ideology. And I do not believe that I would be sacrificing a great deal of my epistemological equipment (depriving it too much of the truth) were others to agree with the question I posed above. It might be a mistake, politically, for working-class people to misrecognize who is, in fact, having all that input into the political system that is not to be found in them. History has plenty of examples of not tracing the source of the problem back to its cause etc. To me from an educational point of view it does present itself as a problem. Once again thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

True, if we're being very precise epistemologically, you got me! In that case let my rephrase my answer: I don't want to comment on your question/statement. Those are some interesting points! -R
