this was an interesting interview. I think Marx's view on equality is interesting and nuanced. the naive view is that Marx rejected inequality. the more sophisticated view is that Marx did not oppose inequality. but I think the more sophisticated view is also mistaken. We see a dialectical notion of equality in the critique of the gotha program and his critique of wage egalitarianism where this is in practice inegalitarian and doesnt understand the material conditions that produce inequality. he also critiques fairness as a vague and ideological loaded concept and floating signifier. yet inasmuch as he opposed the oppression of women, racial minorities, colonized nations like the poles, etc, was against arbitrary forms of inequality. I think for Marx, the movement towards equality is a dialectical spiral that cannot move directly towards it, but can only move indirectly towards it.
I certainly disagree with Branko Milanović I really loved the interview and your careful approach to it. Also, it's funny to hear someone say "Whether is labor L or Capital K..." It just reminds me that English IS NOT nor should be the understanding for Marxism. Great job.

When he was naming the universities Milanovic worked at, I was so sad he didn't name my uni 😭
Fantastic interview Tutt’s show is increasingly becoming the best left wing content out there.

I thought it was 1% owned 80% and real wages haven’t increased since 78. I guess the wef numbers are better than richard wolffs.
