I love you, Karl Marx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fantastic work.

Book 4🎉😢

😊

Great

I'm watching these so I don't have to read Marx

Which class would this be studied in? Political science?

Native accents come in the way of understanding to non-natives.

What these very superficial analyses do is overlook the obvious. History has shown us humans are sick and depraved. When given power to take and 'confiscate' property from others with impunity they don't stop there. They take your women, your daughters, your money, and even torture you and end your life or end the lives of your loved ones right before your eyes. Marx was a very angry and depressed guy as he never made any money, his family starved while he got drunk and fought in bars when people didn't show him the veneration he expected. He projected his anger on to the page and now people think his ideas are Utopian. Marx is the Prophet of Darkness.

why are all the modern communists wearing the same eye glasses?

I am new to communism, I am currently reading The Capital. Your video help me a lot to understand it thanks. I have a question in chapter 8. When it comes to 'labour capacity' being treated as commodity. Marx says its use value is to add value to other commodity which its been acted on, its value is its means of subsistence. Human labour can produce more value than its means of subsistence thus produce surplus value. So far so good. I agree. When it comes to mechines he says its value is amout of socially necessary labour to create the mechine and its use value is to transfer its value to the community that is been provided using this mechine. How can we say mechines can't produce surplus value (No where we relate the value of the mechine with its use value). To understand it easily, assume a fully automatic manufacturing industry, the value of that industry is amount of socially necessary labour to set up or create such an industry. How can we be sure the industry won't produce more than its value? Please help me understand.

But also, a lot less similar than YOU think…

The propaganda is really funny and it makes the communist manifesto sound even more ridiculous. Nice job.

“Hoarding of money indicates a stagnation in the circulation of commodities” ufff very applicable stuff there

“The true rightist is not a man who wants to go back to this or that institution for the sake of a return; he wants first to find out what is eternally true, eternally valid, and then either to restore or reinstall it, regardless of whether it seems obsolete whether it is ancient, contemporary, or even without precedent, brand new, "ultramodern." Old truths can be rediscovered, entirely new ones found. The Man of the Right does not have a time-bound, but a sovereign mind.” "Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn"

A cute redhead talking economics to me... Dream come true.

If Marx only knew just how bad things would get in the year 2024. I wonder if he could have ever imagine just how dire things have become.

Perfectly said. You really simplified this for everyone. I hope your viewers will start to understand the truth about communism. So many think they will just get money from the government. Wont have to work and life will be lovely. The truth in communism is that there are slaves and the oligarch. Only the oligarch at the top of the pyramid live lavishly. The rest are starving. Communism failed everywhere it was tried. You also point out the connection between communism and a "one world government" which was great and they "shrug off" religious criticism because Marx was a satanist. Satanists claim to be "atheists" yet they believe in their "own God" the devil.

These will be laughable in modern age without any mathematical modeling environment, who that heck care about a story book about opinions

Dawg, the AS DC joke was outstanding

u saved my masters procastination (thank u)

is there clips for volume 2 and volume 3? and surplus value vol 1-3?

0:38 "There are contradictions..." Mao: Go on...

10- there are 2 classes in society 9- the bourgeoisie is the oppressing class (exploits workers grow or die) 8-the proletariat is the oppressed class. (division class, every worker is becoming more replaceable) 7-history is the history of class struggle (rome example/fudel example 6- oppression didnt change just the oppressors 5- criticisms of communism can be easily rejected (communism wants to establish freedom because the working man does not have freedom) 4- Education should be free 3- Private property isn't necessary and should be abolished 2- nationalization is key 1-the workers need to overthrow capitalism

perfecttttttttttttt!!! thank you

Lets be honest Adam smith ideas are realistic meanwhile Karl mard was high with opium whe he wrote communalism. There is no way there gonna be classless n stateless society.China, ussr, Vietnam, cuba have proven this

The brilliant explanation I got 🤩🪔

To think Marx was anything but thankful for Smith would be comical considering Smith wasn't advocating for Capital but rather explaining the profit making abilities of the separation of labor while Marx pointed out that both the separation of labor and the profits created by it will lead to Communism. One pointed the source the other pointed the way of the future. Also to think Capitalism can succeed without the government is ludicrous. As more profits find their way to the top, those in control will continue to amass power and by extension regulations and laws in their favor. At some point the working class will revolt. Social Security, Medicare and all other social services are there to protect the upper class from the lower class by "Giving us cakes". Remove those social services and soon the masses have absolutely nothing to live for and will gladly take the law into their own hands.

We started as a nation for people to escape the clutches of tyranny. That's saying about seeing yourself become the villain. I think that just applies to the people with all the money, not governments as a whole

AMAZING!!! great work, thanks :)

terrible voice

Just want to point out a major misconception that I find in the video and that is that Marx believed government can provide freedom which would be totally against his ideas. Marx's was not a fan of government. He was in fact very critical of governments and believed that freedom can only come from individuals collectively owning the means of production which in layman terms means an economy that is composed mainly of worker cooperatives which are worker owned businesses like Mondragon in northern Spain. Meaning he thought freedom would come from democratizing the economy instead of having dictatorships in individual firms which is what we have in capitalism. Also I'd argue that Marxs is the father of capitalism too because not only did he popularize the name of the economic system but he also completely explained the inner workings or the logic of capitalism highlighting the good and the bad, while Adam Smith I'd argue was the father of mercantilism the direct predecessor of what we understand as capitalism.

Could this book be considered the most evil book in history considering how many people were killed by governments implementing its ideas?

I love these videos :)

Yeah her husband is a lucky bro. I need to find myself a cute intelligent and curious gal like this

Wealth inequality is because of corporatism, which is basically pseudo communist market interventions in the free market, designed to prevent competition. Wealthy people are great at using the tax code (for example), whereas it is punitive to new corporations and individuals. Connected people (such as oligarchs) have access to decision makers and policy makers in government. Corporations even write the laws under the auspice of consumer protections, wealth redistribution, or fake egalitarianism.

How does price not dictate the value of labor, considering that labor is a line item in price? Is it not true that if there are 10 computer programmers in a labor pool, that their value is more if there are millions of computer programmers? A price is also not the only aspect of value. Price, Availability, and Quality are all a component of determining value. India banned silk looms, refused to modernize, cited Das Kapital.

Context is key here. Adapting for now the billionaires would be the bourgeoisie and the proletariat would be us - common people.

At 1:15 it becomes clear as crystal that Schumpeter has never ever read marx. Anything beyond this is a waste of time and toxic to your intellectual mind.

Love your videos but please don't use AI art

Thanks for this amazing video regarding commodity I learnt from this 1. Difference between thing and commodity 2. What is commodity 3. Use value 4. Exchange value 5. Value - what we experience in exchange value , but marx wants to remember use value 6. Labor- twofold nature - a) it creates useful value in things b) it helps in the creation of exchange value exchange 7. Labour time - how much socially necessary time is spent in producing an element of commodity 8. Useful labour - productive activity of a definite kind and exercised with a definite aim. 9. Social division of labour - different shorts of useful value for producing different shorts of use value of things creates a complex system known as socially division of labour . 10. Division of labour is a socially necessary condition for production of commodities but it does not follow conversely, production of labour Is a necessary condition for division of labour. 11. Expenditure of brain and nerve(physical strength )these two different modes of expending human labour power - Marx focuses on labour in exchange value as units of simple labour that helps in creation of money form ........ Units of socially necessary labour power decide the prize of any commodity..... 12. Above mentioned all points are building blocks of capitalist society........ Thanks for reading

I know these videos are super old now, but this has been a great resource for me to look through as I go through Capital chapter by chapter. I appreciate you pumping these all out

I hate this book but facts over feelings

wealth redistribution always sounds good to people who have none

Marx and his class warfare. Did you know that Karl Marx was a parasite who lived off the means of his friends and family? Is it any wonder that he hated Capitalism? Lets talk about the Communist success stories in history, shall we? Did Lenin solve the greed of Capitalists? Did Stalin? Did Mao? Did Pol Pot? Did Castro? Did the North Koreans? How has Communism worked out with that list so far? It seems to me that "Communist China" has actually EMBRACED Capitalism! How does that fit into Marx's manifesto? Too many Communist school teachers polluting the minds of the young, they too conveniently ignore the real world examples.
