Hey Redmaistre, I recently used Pashukanis to talk about the 1948 North Korean constitution, but I know nothing about Marxist and/or Soviet legal theory. I also used J.J. Lecercle to talk about the linguistic aspects of constitutional law. Also know little about linguistics. So your post is pretty cool. Is there anybody I should read? Constitutional law is what I'm focusing on but anything would be sweet. Only other dude I know is that Sci Fi author in the SWP and I think I'll pass. Or if you just have any ideas I can talk about my research without getting arrested.

his book is p good imo. talks about soviet legal theory a bit but i dont have the background to follow 100% and has a critique of CRT.

*cough*

i just got done listening to grover furr own trotsky for an hour. he passed by me on the way to begin speaking and grandfatherly placed his hand on my shoulder as he stopped to ask someone if he was going to be introduced or should he just start talking or what. he obviously needed no introduction

stalin's linguistics are interesting in that they often mirror the mystic materialism in adorno's 'theses on the language of philosophers'. the idea that language is an epiphenomenon of class war if i think unfairly tained as 'vulgar' - see, for instance, the accent theory of voloshinov (who may or many not have been the same person as bakhtin) - the sign contains the possibility of an almost infinite heterogeneity, but its determinate signified(s) is formed according to the materiality of class antagonism



The infinite heterogeneity of the sign remains irreducible to its individual appropriation by the struggling social blocs--and necessarily so, since if they lack any shared signs or grammars, they would not be even be able to curse each other. Humans can only articulate their warrings as antagonisms in the first place because they always already share a world of shared meanings, made manifest in language, which allows them to recognize each other as connected as friends or foes. Even the bitterest of civil wars retain references to the persistence of relation, or at least the memory of relation.

The....mistake of these comrades is that they conceive the opposition of interests of the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, the fierce class struggle between them, as meaning the disintegration of society, as a break of all ties between the hostile classes. They believe that, since society has disintegrated and there is no longer a single society, but only classes, a single language of society, a national language, is unnecessary. If society has disintegrated and there is no longer a language common to the whole people, a national language, what remains? There remain classes and "class languages." Naturally, every "class language" will have its "class" grammar -- a "proletarian" grammar or a "bourgeois" grammar. True, such grammars do not exist anywhere. But that does not worry these comrades: they believe that such grammars will appear in due course.

Bakhtin and vološinov were certainly different people. Ppl speculate that bakhtin ghost-wrote Marxism and the philosophy of language on vološinov's behalf because v was incapable of writing something so cool. Yet bakhtin never sounded like anything but a liberal weenie in anything he wrote under his own name

They are having some issues at the moment and a couple of domains are down https://torrentfreak.com/libgen-goes-down-as-legal-pressure-mounts-150622/

The domains libgen.in and libgen.org are probably gone for good, libgen.biz is the main mirror at the moment but is having intermittent downtime probably while they fix stuff. gen.lib.rus.ec is fine but may not be accessible in the US and is search only, files not hosted there. bookzz.org looks to be working okay as well as bookfi.org but I think they're both subject to DMCA takedowns to some degree or other. Long story short libgen isn't dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just to be clear i had nothing to do w/ the confederate flag being taken down, but i did cause the GOP candidates to give back money from that CCC guy.

some people say that the confederate flag is about treason, racism and stupidity and some people say that it's about southern heritage and nobody points out that these aren't contradictory claims

When I was in college 1 professor told us that we weren't racist because we were in college, people are racist in the south. She was a white South African rofl. That was a journalism class I took for fun.

http://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/S-F-study-finds-big-disparity-in-arrest-rates-6343155.php

" study found that black people are 7.1 times more likely to be arrested in San Francisco than white people, 11 times more likely to be booked into jail and 10.3 times more likely to be convicted. Those convicted spend more time on probation or behind bars.. . . Though black people represented just 6 percent of the city’s adult population, they made up 40 percent of those arrested."



it's almost as if inequalities in capitalism are more to blame for institutional racism than a lack of liberal values

because posing as victims/underdogs is an extremely good recruitment tool for their demographic. also because you touch yourself at night.

while we're on the topic, the difference between a writer for VICE and extremely famous Racist nationalist p. j. o'rourke is that when p. j. o' rourke wandered among the peshawar seven he acknowledged that america created them and expressed superficial guilt at his complicity in their past and future crimes
