Here’s another short explainer on Title IX and the currently stayed ed rule that includes gender identity and sexual orientation under the general prohibition on sex discrimination. For those of you under the mistaken impression it’s bad for women’s sports.
Paint the Roses Red Podcast@RosesPaintedRed

@MaxDashu @KarenFOrlando @janeclarejones You are entirely mistaken and being hostile about it for no good reason. title IX addresses discrimination against women by prohibiting sex discrimination. It then makes some exemptions to allow for discrimination in a number of instances like housing, athletics and other areas…

Goddess please save us from this culture war dumbfuckery. 75% of Americans think males shouldn't be in women's sports. That's a fuckton of people who also deeply dislike Christofascists. Get your shit together for the love of saving democracy PLEASE.

If you’re scared of “athletes pretending to be women” wait’ll you hear about fascists pretending to be Christian

I am convinced that many people (like here) who criticize LTV have never read Marx. It explicitly has nothing to do with morality. And all of vol 2 and 3 can be read with no reference to LTV because under capitalism prices/values take the form of prices of production (which are identical to Marshall's long-term prices) and LTV remains totally in the background. Hence, even if one rejects Marx's LTV, his work on balanced growth, economic crises. possible under-consumption etc. remains valid. Or can be discussed on its own merits which have nothing to do w/ LTV.
Jonah Goldberg@JonahDispatch

This. Marx’s Labor Theory of Value is a hot mess. I don’t think it’s even an economic theory technically speaking. It’s an overstated moral critique that was only superficially plausible at the dawn of the Industrial Revolution.

@BrankoMilan @PatriotPlatenik This was helpful, but you’ve missed where Marx gets an assist from Wittgenstein, Feyerabend, & Kuhn. Falsification is not a reliable criteria for empirical truth & we have species of proposition other than the empirical which can be shown to be true & require no leaps of faith.

@MattPolProf @JonahDispatch Matt do you have anything you'd recommend to a leftie to whom the LTV makes no sense vs. marginalism? Or is that not the issue you're taking here?

Chris Freiman@cafreiman

The most compelling critique of Marxism is simply that its analysis of capitalism largely fails once the labor theory of value is (correctly) abandoned. That’s not to say that *nothing* remains, but its core doesn’t.

@JulioHuato @BrankoMilan The foundational concepts that lead to this system are obvious truisms, but the fact that the measure of wealth is human labor is deeply irrational as opposed to the use-value results of labor.

@PatriotPlatenik @BrankoMilan the value of a commodity is the sum of the value of material inputs plus the minimum cost of the commodities necessary to reproduce the aggregate socially necessary labor time required to produce it without overproducing it.

@BrankoMilan Can you state, in the simplest possible terms, Marx's LTV? I am honestly asking, it should be possible to summarize and understand without needing to read the entire source material.

@BrankoMilan @MattPolProf i remain ready & willing to believe in marginalism as soon as a bourgeois economics alchemist offers a coherent reply to Marx’s apparently fatal critique of the marginalist collapse of utility with exchange into subjective, & woefully imprecise-to-immeasurable demand curves.

I asked militiamen who attended Monday’s Second Amendment rally armed in Richmond, Virginia how they feel about the shooting of Alex Pretti yesterday in Minneapolis by federal agents and the administration’s response. Here are responses from Virginia Kekoas militia leader ICE (third from left in the photo, name is movie reference, not the agency) and member Sasquatch (third from right). This militia has identified as preppers since 2024, but recently wore “Boogaloo” attire for the first time since 2023, which symbolizes armed domestic conflict.

VIDEO THREAD: Armed gun rights activists rallied at the Virginia State Capitol on Monday to protest proposed gun measures under new Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger. The Virginia Kekoas militia wore "Boogaloo" style attire for the first time publicly since 2023. "All the rights, for all the people, all the time" explained the group's leader, who goes by ICE (which is not a reference to the agency of the same name). "We're just going back to our heritage, where we started." "Things are a little bit more serious this year," explained the Kekoas member who goes by Sasquatch. "This is our unofficial battle cry!" "I swear I'm not a swinger," he clarified, referencing the pineapples on his Hawaiian shirt.

@Rusty338 @FordFischer Got a source for that? From what ive read it emerged on image boards where the line between edgelord shitposters and stormfront adjacent guncels basically disappears.

@RosesPaintedRed @FordFischer The term was adopted by a pretty wide swath of the political spectrum. Right, left, anarchist, authoritarian, you name it. It got pinned on the auth-right because they’re the easiest to paint as villains, for obvious reasons. Everyone else shied away to avoid the association.
