This is more of a video about why capitalism is bad, rather than why Marxism is good.

I don't see it that way. It's more an overview of Marx's fundamental thesis in terms of dialectical materialism, i.e. why capitalism's inherent contradictions are bound to lead to socialism. You really can't meaningfully explain Marx's philosophy without pointing out those contradictions.

An agency I freelance for wants to hire me full-time. They told me for a Sr Copywriter, 100-110k. I countered with 125-150.

I also said I'm interested in a higher-level title - I currently freelance as a Creative Director of Copy elsewhere (they don't have that title at this agency.)

They came back and said yes to the title and to 125, with a 6 month review that could raise it to 145.

Which is good for Sr Copy, but low for CD/ACD level. Don't want to screw myself over. What to say now?

Hi fishes, what are the chances of Pwc AC bangalore rescinding an offer given the current market condition?

Happy Friday comrades! Sorry this place has been pretty quiet, I've been moving to a new apartment.

Fun thread time.

Comment with your favorite garbage capitalist takes on socialism. I'll start:

If you love socialism so much, why don't you empty your bank account and live as a feral mountain man in the woods?

Hey. I was wondering, what are some jobs that you wouldn't take on the basis that you don't feel it's ethical? For me, I just would never work for a defense contractor or anything to do with the FBI, CIA, etc. I also don't ever plan on being a manager.

Is this a group for socialists or also for those that (in a constructive way) enjoy discussing socialism?
I’m Scandi and more social democrat than socialist, but have respect for socialists and enjoy trying to find a way to convince myself of certain aspects.

This bowl is kind of quiet.
I don’t know much about the topic so I don’t personally have much to contribute. Was hoping for more activity in here.

It's pretty weird to see how terrified people in the US get about the "threat to society" that socialism poses while ignoring the fascism that is *already here*.

I know you don't want another USSR, neither do I. I also don't want another Nazi Germany, so stop voting fascists into our government. The closest we have to socialists in Congress are people like Bernie, who's not starting a revolution. Meanwhile almost all of the R's in the Senate are against a bill that would prevent another coup.

I would suggest having a thread or threads about defending socialism against capitalism. In the real world anti-socialist ideas/arguments are made all the time and for those lessed versed in socialist thought, it can be hard to defend one's position and perhaps even be persuaded bythe capitalists. Just an idea

For those who want some lighter reading on Marx, I can recommend this. Each chapter starts with a standard anti-Marx argument and then gives the rebuttal. The left can sometimes be a bit “I can’t believe you disagree, I won’t even engage’ but this means we are often not well rehearsed to oppose the other side of the argument.
