rosa lichtenstein has refuted dialectics.

indeed

http://www.anti-dialectics.co.uk/SW_Letter_001.htm

In this passage quoted by Marx, not one single Hegelian concept is to be found (no "contradictions", no change of "quantity into quality", no "negation of the negation", no "unity and identity of opposites", no "Totality"), and yet Marx calls this both the "dialectic method" and "my method". So, Marx's "method" has had Hegel completely excised --, except for the odd phrase or two with which he merely "coquetted", here and there. This is, of course, the version of HM I advocate in my Essays.
It is thus pleasing to see Marx and Rosa are in total agreement, at least here.
Naturally, DM-fans won't like this, but they should pick a fight with Marx for destroying their illusions, not me.
So, not so much turning Hegel 'on his head' as decapitating him...

it's ironic that chomsky rails against stalinist overlords when he's a public sector manager in the military-industrial complex who looks like a typical retired bureaucrat.... become what you are... help me plan a socialist utopia with MIT math grads chomsky

He designed war machines for the pentagon for fucks sake: he’s about as much of a legitimate leftist hero as Saddam Hussein

goatstein remember that time you argued against the labour theory of value by posting a bunch of gibberish from baudrillard you hadn't actually read. good times.

baudrillard was absolutely correct, value doesn't derive from labor. sorry about your globally failed economic system

i love how an 18 year old hick from impoverished arkansas thrown into a war is somehow evil and yet you handwave away the culpability of Chomsky

However, Chomsky has been paid millions by the Department of Defense over the past forty years, mainly through his work at the Pentagon funded MIT Research Laboratory of Electronics which even offered perks that other departments in the school did not. Chomsky’s first books, Syntactic Structures, and Aspects of the Theory of Syntax were written with grants from the U.S. Army, the Air Force, and the Office of Naval Research. He worked with his wife who is also a linguist on a DoD-funded project called “Baseball,”(11) and helped to develop “command and control” computer systems used to “support our forces in Vietnam” through making it easier for commanders’ queries to be translated into a language that computers could deal with.
