UK: A Working Class Experience of Alien Abduction! (18.11.2025)
The capitalist will say (and do) anything that justifies the endless accumulation of profit. To this end, the emphasis of individualism is vital – as it is through this loss of collective identity that humanity learns to routinely brutalise its own existence and being. Inflicting pain and harvesting gain is the only permitted exchange which locks out all other modes of possible interaction.

STUDYING DAS KAPITAL: Part 1 (of 8)

STUDYING DAS KAPITAL: Part 1 (of 8)
William Roberts argued persuasively in his book “Marx’s Inferno” that Karl Marx structured Das Kapital Volume 1 to parallel Dante’s Inferno. Look over the diagram below which is taken from Robert’s book.

And yet, here I am, drawn back, not by ideology, but by something deeper—an idea that resonated.
