Ok, let’s disengage

Not really, zed. I dont think it should be embraced as our identity. I just think it should not come across as surprising that a Honduran considers Honduras a western country. That it would be more productive to point out that class relations within Honduras supersede such cultural ties, instead of antagonizing him with how much a northern european would not consider him western.

I also dont think when people from Latam understand their countries as western are they unaware of the reality of colonization and exploitation by the global core. Conflation of western and global north and central economies is not as common within Latam as it seems to be tô you guys from other regions of The globe.

Please do not accuse me of glorifying colonization. I dont think my post allows that reading

The shared cultural heritage between latin american and “western in the strictest sense” countries seems to be weaponized by certain groups within latin american societies. Because of this, I don’t think we should completely disregard what our comrade from Honduras points out.

I made an effort post with a more detailed account of this view over at /c/effort but this is the bottom line.

It is patronizing when you consider agreeing with your position to be

the UTMOST FUNDAMENTAL basis upon which to change your lives

Like yeah, thanks buddy, I’ll go with our Honduran comrade in trying to remind Hexbear that latin american people should be taken as having their own thoughts and motivations

Yeah, real difference in vocabulary vibes on this exchange

New site tagline just dropped

Sectarian post title. We have a few anarchists in the site as well as a seemingly infinite supply of (shudders) liberals.

Me as the one true leftist will feel the loss though.

It is amazing how many current debates this Marx guy was able to anticipate.

Maybe he was on to something right??

And to capitalism itself, as The difference in organic composition of capital between imperial core And periphery make surplus value Flow from The latter to The former (and in turn incentive the dependent, peripheral bourgeoisies tô over exploit their working class)

New tagline dropped

I dont think there are that many people in the first world. They are a smaller slice of The world population than we think (although overrepresented in all other aspects)!


Other than the points already discussed about food deserts and the differing prices of such food between The global north and south, I think we must also consider addiction. Food industry calculates and produces such ultraprocessed foods with the sole goal of hijacking your brain as efficiently as possible, so un processed foods starts looking and tasting bland in comparison and suddenly you are getting cravings.

It’s ways projection

Lmao good luck on the pentacoyote. Having gotten to quadferret you’ve already been through the worst parts though, from there it’s just smooth sailing.

A body without taxes is like an ancap reading of deleuze right?

It was a supreme court decision so not really an elected decision. Brings to mind the interest debates in state theory about majority and countermajority institutions in bourgeouis democracy…

Read to the tune of Beck’s Loser
