MODERATORS
I'm not sure that you're asking a real question because your question contains a moral judgement which you then use as a bludgeon to attach boogyman words to concepts you don't seem to like.
DEI is completely unrelated to Marxism, and immigration policy. I get the distinct feeling that you either didn't know what any of those words mean, or you're hoping that the people reading this won't know what they mean
Also "Does that mean the people want to give up the means of production?" assumes the people own the means of production which would be communism and/or anarchism. Not sure what they think the means of production is or if it's just a buzzword they hoped to toss in there.
I was gonna mention that, but my response was getting too scattered
I meant private ownership of the means of production,
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalist_mode_of_production_(Marxist_theory)
Ah, still this wouldn't really apply because the workers/ people don't own this mode of production because, so they can't give it up.
The people you are thinking of are the ~400 individuals who own the means of product, and you are correct that they won't willingly give that up.
Dude you read what I wrote wrong, or you didn’t get the context, it’s okay to say that instead of whatever verbal gymnastics you’re saying now. Grow up lol
Well that wasn't very Mr. Rogers of you, please be kind here.
It seems a little unnecessary to spin words to be correct, you can just say you read it wrong or don’t respond 🤷♀️
Besides that, it’s okay. I know my anti-Marxist pov will always attract downvotes. I want to challenge the premise that a Marxist world is socially just or morally or ethically superior. I don’t want to troll or cause grief.
Marxist, anti-marxist, I'm here still trying to piece together what the hell you're trying to say
I don’t want to derail the thread any further, but others have said this better already,
https://newdiscourses.com/2023/04/marxist-roots-of-dei-workshop-all-sessions/
Not sure I give too much credence to anything else on that site.
Most of your downvotes aren't coming from being antimarxist but from blatant misuse of terms to try to scare people.
To take a note from your pages: it's ok to just admit that you don't understand what private ownership is, or what communism is, and it seems pretty unnecessary to spew such verbal diarrhea in order to try to scare people into whatever it is you're trying to scare them into
Just take the L, dude.
You clearly don't know what you're talking about. It's like reading some garbage from chatGPT.
The climate justice aspects of DEI are philosophically meant to normalize “anti-Imperialism”.
https://lawliberty.org/the-philosophy-underlying-dei/
Meanwhile there’s nothing anti- imperialist about something like Marxism or Stalinism, the only difference is you’re ruled either by a single tyrant or a committee of tyrants.
Edit I’ll just say this though, the sad thing to me is that so much of LGBT rights is wrapped up in postmodern ideology, but LGBT rights speak to fundamental aspects of being a person. LGBT rights don’t need postmodern ideology to validate those rights.
It seems like you've disproven your own argument that DEI is a Trojan horse for Marxism, because in your words "there is nothing anti-imperialist about Marxism"
And then you go of on another tangent to pass judgement on something unrelated which you seem to very much want to relate
