Yeah, your issue was you wanted the reform to be systemic, remember? If the reform is not changing the structure of the system you didn't want to call it reform, but administration or something like that. I disagreed and said reform can be incremental and maintain the system, simply with improvements. You provided Marxist literature to support your claim, I provided a dictionary definition and a historical analysis of the word "reform" for mine.
Okay, what would a non-communist Pole say? lol
The two can actually create each other, depending on circumstances. Religion, for instance, has created many realities independent of materialism. Particularly in their infancy, before they became large, mainstream churches.
Israel existing in no way forces someone like Saudi Arabia to deal in dollars. This is just dumb. Saudi Arabia can accept whatever currency gives them the most benefit, Israel has nothing to do with it.
Actually no, we could look at quantum mechanics for an example of a way perception itself changes reality, where an observed and unobserved photon will exhibit different behaviors. Perhaps you should stick to philosophy.
You seem to have great faith, I hope you enjoy your religion, though I do hope you can eventually grow past your hatred of the ~~Great Satan~~west. We're really not that evil.
I provided Marxist literature because it's older and proves the historical context of the term "Reform" as it relates to politics. Choosing to keep the form is not reform.
Are you implying that a non-communist pole would have wanted to be under the Nazis? Lol.
Yep, there it is, full rejection of science by yourself.
Bzzzt. Wrong. Saudi Arabia risks war with Israel and by extension the US if they trade in anything other than Dollars, hence the term Petro-Dollar, though times are changing and SA is looking to increase ties with BRICS.
You truly don't understand Quantum Mechanics if this is your interpretation, nor Materialism.
You haven't once genuinely answered anything, except when you implied your support of the Nazis taking all of Poland. The West is evil, yes, and will collapse, yes. America's constant genocides will end eventually and the Global South will throw off US Imperialism, ceasing their exploitation. Trying to call Materialism "religion" and requiring faith when you previously stated that Religion created Reality is ridiculous.
Still a semantic argument. But anyway, can you present any non-Marxist source to back your claim about the history and meaning of this English word?
Yes, over being invaded by the Soviets as well, very much so. One butcher is better than two butchers, and there is no love lost there. To quote an old Polish joke:
'A Polish man finds a genie in a bottle. The genie offers him three wishes.
The Pole says, “I want the Mongols to invade Poland and then go back to Mongolia.”
So it happens.
For his next wish, the Pole also asks for the Mongols to invade Poland and then go home.
So it happens.
For his third wish, the Pole again asks for the Mongols to invade Poland and go home.
“I gave you three wishes,” the genie cries. “Why did you ask for the Mongols to invade Poland and then go home three times?”
“Because they had to march across Russia six times.”'
There is no evidence for this.
You really don't see how a bunch of people's belief in something can cause them to make a decision that affects our world? I see it regularly. People sit down to pray. This is an action that happens. It is because of their perceptions. Nothing in science would deny that any of this happens.
Regarding QM, I'd ask you to please try to explain the results of double-slit experiment in some other way, then.
I think I've dealt with you quite fairly, actually. Only your faith seems to prevent you from acknowledging anything outside of standard communist doctrine.
edit for the joke
Social Democrats and Democratic Socialists consider themselves reformists and yet are not Marxists.
Talk to some poles, holy shit. The Nazis slaughtered the poles. This is Nazi Apologia and is absolutely monstrous behavior, no wonder liberals side with fascists. Here's another common joke: scratch a liberal, and a fascist bleeds.
Of course there is. This is a hot topic in the economics world, as Saudi Arabia is ending the exclusive Petro-Dollar Agreement
Ideas of religion come from reality. People making up religion to explain their material reality doesn't mean the thoughts of religion predated percieving reality. Religion was an explanation for reality before science surpassed it, not the other way around. You fundamentally do not understand Materialism nor Idealism.
Perception does not create QM. QM isn't something that exists purely in perception, it's reality first and foremost. You're misunderstanding Materialism and Idealism once again.
You mean sympathizing with Nazis is your idea of dealing with people fairly?
