    Disagreement with its contents doesn’t mean I haven’t read Capital.

    In any case nobody owes you a summary of its contents or some other way to persuade you, a statement is enough. You are taking too much upon yourself.

    Also having a list of Latin buzzwords doesn’t help you one bit when you are unwilling to dispute honestly.

      Tangent is Greek. <-- this is wrong, it is Latin.

      You display no working understanding of even the basic concepts. You haven’t read it. And you won’t.

        I have re-checked and no, it’s not Greek.

        EDIT: wow, edited your own comment to appear something completely different ; your typical marxist right here.

        EDIT2: as to what you made it look - see, I don’t fucking care what a marxist of all kinds of people thinks about my working understanding of anything. If you’d have that, you’d not be a marxist. And of course the argument is absolutely fruitless when you are repeating that I haven’t read some book, because I disagree with your wrong opinion on it.

          I wrote that, posted it, and check it. I discovered it was wrong in under 30 seconds and didn’t think you would have read it. I was wrong. I had finished editing it before you posted your reply. I’ve edited the link to reflect my edit.

          As for your second edit, if you see no fruits in understanding the basic concepts then you and I operate in different ethical worlds. Reading your writings is difficult. It’s meandering and unclear without a clear idea that you’re building an argument around. Layered on top of it a sense of certainty that you haven’t earned and allergic defensiveness when others notice and point it out. It’s not worth discussing anything with you until you have some ability to demonstrate even the most basic understanding of the core concepts.

            You are using words you don’t understand to create some respectably-appearing text, except one can have a good intelligent discussion constantly swearing and making spelling mistakes in half the words and using “that thing which …” and analogies instead of terms, but just not losing logic and deontology, and one can have a pretentious text like yours after trying insults and arrogant statements about things you can’t possibly know anything about.

            I don’t remember what my argument was and about what, and I don’t care, because you yourself chose to address things irrelevant to it with ridiculing tone and all that and are only now playing a virgin, pretending you can have a civilized discussion.

            And what’s more,

            if you see no fruits in understanding the basic concepts

            you’re still lying while pretending, trying to put words into your opponent’s mouth, and all that.

            People doing something useful don’t try to prove that such cheating is wrong, they simply discard those who are trying to cheat.
