🧵 HOW TO READ ¶1 of Marx' "CAPITAL" A popular educational thread in 15 tweets examining paragraph 1 of chapter 1 of Marx' "Capital – A Critique of Political Economy" in order to ENCOURAGE anti-capitalist studies AND COUNTER bourgeoisoid mystifications & distortions of Marx😊

contains a few errors of course but hey

"dominated by" the capitalist mode of production is just one embarrassing vulgarism - but "appears in the form of" an enormous (/= gigantic) accumulation of commodities is such a blatant violation of the actual text basis, you gotta wonder how Princeton still sells its tomes 😅

The first paragraph of the newly translated english edition of Karl Marx's "Capital Volume 1" contains at least 6 problems, at least 2 of which ["dominated by"?, "in the form of"?] are serious enough to be called outright forgeries of the original text and previous translations.

it gotta have something to do with imperialist capitalist appropriation attempts of somehow oppositional potentials

“𝘊𝘢𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 without Class Struggle and without Capitalism, Marxism without Materialism and without the Dialectic, 𝘊𝘢𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 for the Consumption of the Postmodernists”: “𝘊𝘢𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 is no fellow traveler for postmodernist thought. The purpose of Wendy Brown’s “Foreword” and Paul North’s “Editor’s Introduction” is precisely to make that wonderful book of class struggles an eclectic mélange of Marxism and postmodernism. That project is condemned to fail.” #ScienceOpen: scienceopen.com/hosted-docum…

Clumsy bit of illustration of the (1) *dialectical* (2) *structure* of the Manifesto of the Communist Party (Ch.1 + Ch.2)

🧵 5 Infographics summarizing "MANIFESTO" Chapter 1 🤩 In case you need encouragement to try reading Manifesto yourself or struggled with the text before. Also trying to visualize the DIALECTICAL STRUCTURE of it…at least a bit. Also colours & design are probably…improvable😅

I suspect that some comrades have still not investigated the vastness and concreteness of the actually communist anticipations in the "Manifesto of the Communist Party" from some 1848 with sufficient scientific scrutiny as of yet.
