    Where in the hell, is the microphone? As well, why is it placed so as to pick up, as much as possible, that hated background noise. It interferes with everything.

    Society will move to another system only if production forces increase to a certain extent that production relations come into conflict with production forces and now in contemporary capitalism we are seeing industry 4.0 ,so capitalism is still moving society forward and society is moving forward through class struggle.....

    History tends to be taught in say public.. or private, in the case of UK (either though) schools, as a series of "pivot points" , yeah. You can get more in-depth if you want a certain subject in general, though.

    So marriage is economic unit? In a sence that is made to secure property and inheritance of value in family, while trapping people in absence of freedom to express their affection for others in a sence that break of marriage means economic disaster? Did I understood it well? Tnx

    I understand that the point of this video was not to present Christianity and the Bible as tools of capitalism, but they seemed to be portrayed as favoring of the capitalist ideology. I was taught in my church that some of Jesus' first followers set up a planned community. So I can't really see Christianity as capitalist, but at the same time I'm not all too knowledgeable on the bulk of the New Testament.

      I think the problem comes in seeing Christianity as unchanging, perfect and absolute; rather than subject to constant changes that reflect the material changes in real world social reality... after all Christianity itself was a messy self contradictory and non-centralised grouping of small churches with profoundly differing ideas until the Council of Nicaea essentially 'created' a Christian canon.
      I'm not an expert on the early church but certainly radical ideas were part of it... a 'common' purse of shared wealth (Acts of the Apostles) living in a community of equals, the popularity of early Christianity among the poor etc.
      Early Christians would take the message to prostitues, criminals and beggars; which was something quite new and radical that flummoxed the attitudes of pagans in the ancient world.
      One problem emerges when the radical and small becomes bigger and more influencial, because it eventually becomes apart of the ideological apparatus of a class divided society and, by definition, another aspect of maintaining social control by a particular dominant class, regardless of the nature of the particular system.
      This can be seen via the emergence of Puritan thinking among town dwellers and merchants, in opposition to the dominance of the high churches of the feudal order.
      Therefore a communistic religion remains small and unable to change the world on a large scale... based as it is on the spiritual and personal... or it becomes large and influencial and thereby eventually becomes absorbed into an existing class ideology to further enforce class control.

      Christianity is not, strictly speaking, capitalist or marxist...
      It's...well, mostly just what I'd call "nonsense crazyist".

    I"m a monarchist and have been looking for something like this for a bit , now. Oddly, just as an anecdote, I think I've figured out that the DPRK is not such a horrible nation.. or really horrible at all, or.. anything like what our media in the Anglosphere (all that I have access to read practically ) claims.

    Marxist Historiography has failed to promote any kind of an intellectual awakening in India, and at this point in time is practically dead. This may actually augur well for science, as Marxist Historiography has only increased superstition, blind faith and promoted other ideologies. However, we have a moral obligation to write our history correctly. Otherwise we will need to kiss our dreams of becoming an intellectual superpower and a role model and a guiding force for other developing countries goodbye. Sujay Rao Mandavilli
