Then the world is full of pedestals. Seriously, it is very different to say "I think X is right" than to say "X is infallible in everything he says or...
It was a joke, We consider that the sky or the mountains are not really blue because we give priority to certain conditions in which we assume that ou...
No. I am atheist. If the perceived object is perceived by more than one sense (sight and touch, for example); has a sufficient duration (continuous or...
On the first question I do not have enough information about the history of the Chinese Communist Party. I am talking about the current Chinese Commun...
I don't know how time can be defined without reference to change, evolution or whatever you want to call it. I would like to know how you do it. Serio...
It is rhetorical. Because they limit themselves to generalities and avoid entering into the fundamental concepts of Marx's thought, which would leave ...
If you do not distinguish the mental world from the material or external world you are confusing things. Dreams, imaginations, hallucinations exist in...
In general and with some exceptions, everyone has a clear perception of what is real and what is not. But this is not discursive knowledge, but immedi...
I would not ask what is real, but what we call real. We call real those referents that fulfill a series of conditions = something that is presented un...
The Chinese leaders are not Marxists, nor do they have a moustache. They long ago gave up Marxist rhetoric for pure capitalism. In other words, they a...
None of that had been achieved in the 19th century, as you said, but in a very limited and formal way.Cf. the strong criticism of Engels and Dostoevsk...
And for me it's problematic that the concept of reality is problematic for you, especially because you don't give any reason for it. If you want to di...
I assume this is what you think Heidegger would think. Interpretation in second phase. If the above explanation is true, it would be applicable to Par...
What counts is that no one spits out blood so that another can live better. (Atahualpa Yupanqui) And we will talk about the greater or lesser intellig...
That was 18th century liberalism. Later, liberalism has become the doctrine that accepts any junk dictatorship as long as it allows capital to do busi...
George Steiner: Heidegger, p. 153 I think this brief fragment says much more than your twists and turns in the void. Since the nature of being is temp...
That is true, but Marx left little written about the form of that dictatorship of the proletariat. In the Manifesto of the Communist Party he speaks o...
I do not remember if it is in The 18th of Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte or in The Class Struggles in France (I can look it up), Marx qualifies the dicta...
1. Time is not only present. A present without past or future does not pass and therefore is the lack of time: eternal immobility. 2. Parmenides defen...
What is ridiculous is that you focus on a phrase that is not well expressed to avoid the question. What I thought I said clearly and in detail in two ...
I was talking about poverty. You of consumption. Incidentally, I find it funny that one criticism of the USSR is that housing was expensive or that so...
The World Bank has teams of researchers who analyze the data provided by the country. When they are unclear or do not correspond to parallel reports, ...
To say that Heidegger talks a lot about it and that to understand it you have to read everything Heidegger is not to explain anything. It is not true ...
Do you think that the World Bank's statistics are false? Is it sold to the communists? The World Bank does not give poverty figures for North Korea. C...
No, it wasn't "great", whatever "great" is. I haven't been in the USSR, but I have been in Hungary and Cuba. At my host's house, a university professo...
To explain the relationship between three terms you must be able to link them together (Parménides, presence and time) in a sequence or proposition. Y...
I asked you for a clarification that you have not given. You limit yourself to talk about the valuation that Heidegger makes of the "inception" (origi...
What country are you speaking, please? You may be interested to know that at the time of declaring the end of the communist system at the end of 1991,...
At the beginning of our discussion you tried to give me lessons because, according to you, I did not read Heidegger directly but through second-hand s...
Perfect. That means that each "field" or level of knowledge uses the "parameters" that are useful for its study. And history or sociology has its own,...
It depends. Engels was a capitalist and defended communism. You mean that there are no Marxists who defend capitalism as there are no pro-Stalin democ...
It is a commonplace that the middle classes have expanded and the working class has diminished, compared to the time of Marx. But this has been achiev...
Of course, it is the social groups that compete according to their needs and interests. But this conflict results in something that does not exactly c...
This is no admission at all. What you are saying shows that you have not come here to discuss ideas but to attack people. From what you have written i...
Of course. Marx's theory has been falsified in several of his main predictions -with Popper's permission. This is very vague. Marx needed to know how ...
I'm not clear about what you say in the first scenario. Anyway, Marx would point to the second assumption with the nuances I already made. I'm not sur...
With pleasure. Everyone, including communists, agrees that people who make great contributions to society should be rewarded. But disagreements begin ...
It is not irrelevant, because in one case one type of law will apply and in another case different laws will apply. Only if there are laws in history....
The thread does not refer to Marxists, but specifically to Marx. True, the term Marxist, like almost all political terms, is quite ambiguous. But when...
These examples show that there are behaviors that are very difficult to eradicate. They do not prove that they are part of human nature. It may be due...
Marx's materialism is neither biological nor psychological. He thought that the laws of dialectics, which in nature were concretized in one way, in hi...
I don't understand the relationship. If the gene for aggression exists you can't stop husbands from hitting women. Therefore, let's make gender violen...
