As for the exploitation bit–you don’t seem to have understood that I was talking about degrees (“at least the degree to which…”), which I suppose also made you incapable of understanding that absolute monarchy was also exploitation, to a degree. But I’m too lazy to say very much more about why you’re wrong; just know that if you read one book or another, maybe it’s at the library, you’ll really know what I meant (for sure).

Also, Merry Christmas.

Exploitation is and always will be the way of the world. That’s just how it is and Marxist theory is fucking dead (Thank God). No one takes that seriously anymore. Absolute monarchy still exists today in some countries and is manifested in different forms (aka dictatorships). Again, this will go back to my argument of deposing these monarchs for democracy a futile and shitty effort.

Um, the 18th century was 300 hundred years ago you faggot. I don’t know what point you are trying to make with that, unless you are trying to imply I would be someone all for absolute monarchs back in the day. If that is so, then fuck you.

1. That the U.S.’s economic and military exploitation of other countries is mostly motivated by racism.
2. That one ought to justify and support Marxism and “communists who you would brand as freedom fighters.”

Also, how can you be so certain that exploitation, at least the level of exploitation that takes place today–domestic and international–is inherently “the way of the world”? Would you have said the same thing about absolute monarchy if this were 18th-century Europe?
