Fascists are all the same.
Sounds a lot like Hitler decreeing quantum mechanics a “Jew science” and expelling almost everybody that knew nuclear physics from the country.
Me and my sociologist fiancé are both communists… but we are not tankies. I wonder if there is any correlation in that.
Marxism did begin as a purely scientific study, before Soviets mutated it into an ideology
Where did you get that idea? Marx actively built the first international, how is that purely scientific study?
Why is theory so dense??? I cant even comprehend the Wikipedia summary of this lmao (im not asking for a rephrase).
Sometimes we use technical jargon to say something that we later realize is fairly simple. It might be obvious in retrospect, but still require thousands of years to understand, during which time the technical language is essential.
Anyway, other times we just need new words for new concepts. You can’t contemplate what you cannot name. Even the smartest humans are stupid by default and ordinary language is outstripped by our intellectual ambitions.
If you’re from the US, much of the vocabulary is unfamiliar because education on these concepts is intentionally avoided in public schools. I can’t imagine why…
Same reason any philosophy gets up its own ass when it goes on for long enough.
New concepts require new words. They also relate to each other in interesting ways, which have names, too.
Alternatively, if I ever wanted to assert something more complicated than the weather I’d need to re-build the entire conceptual framework from scratch using small words and pictures.
