It isnt first past the post. It is bourgeois democracy. Things would be the same if there was one party or twenty so long as the bourgeoisie own the state.

I’d argue you’re just describing vulgar idealist(as opposed to materialism, not cynicism) philosophy.
What I meant was that if we didn’t have it to start with, things would’ve likely still developed albeit much more slowly.
I dont think we will ever know, but Im not sure I agree. I dont know what the landscape would look like without relying on open source and patent theft. A lot of the stuff would probably not be financially viable.
I work in software development. Almost all modern architecture would collapse without the open source ecosystem.
:gulp:
I have no formal training in philosophy maybe I need to read less philosophy if philosophy undergrads aren’t being exposed to it
suppose you could make an argument that a non-communist dialectical materialist is also a Marxist
That’s my argument
though I’ve never seen it used that way in practice.
Sometimes capitalists spout marxist shit and it is recorded. Marxist capitalists are the worst because they have an understanding of the contradictions their counterparts dont. More commonly there are non communist Marxists in philosophy.
I agree that almost all Marxists are communists, I just felt your initial response was a simplification that lost more meaning in the simplification than it necessarily needed to.
No, marxism is a lense through which to analyze capitalism. It isnt communist by itself, although marx was a communist.
Also without open source the capitalist tech sector would collapse

Non pacifist feminists got the goods in England and scared american men enough for them to concede to the domestic feminist movement.
Please, go through hexbear and look for any comments calling for a brigade. You will find none.
The ukrainian famine was made into a genocide narrative by literal nazis, see hearst press. When the nazis occupied Ukraine, the rhetoric around killing Jewish people involved a lot of “collaborated to do the holodomor”
Fuck your nazi rhetoric.
Equating communists with fascists is holocaust denial.
Do you generally have a hard time telling people from chatbots? It isnt hard, chatbots aren’t that good.
Much more harmful in the imperial core, at least. They both love their violence outside of it.
Come for the dirt bag leftism, stay for the aggressive anti-bigotry initiatives and correct takes.
The bourgeois elections are the least important part of politics
