Government: "An institution which prevents injustice other than such as it commits itself"
- Ibn Khaldun, "Muqaddimah"

Karl Palanyi: "...these three conditions need to be met for Capitalism to occur: the commodification of land, and we can see that as meaning natural wealth in general; of Labor; and of money. And all those three things need to happen simultaneously for us to be able to say this is a Capitalist System."Source
So, they could fully commoditize the land, just turn it into an object for making money! And then they thought, "well, where are we going to find the labor? Oh, we can just bring people in to work." And who are the cheapest people to bring in? Slaves. So they started importing slaves, first from the Canary Islands, then from Africa. And of course, slaves are fully commoditized labor. You've stripped away everything that gives them their Humanity, stripped away their social context, their cultural context, their religious context (a whole lot of it). And it's pure 100% commoditized. Labor is what slavery is.

ReplyDeleteAI Overview...
Religion and ideology have different focuses and goals:
Religion: Focuses on faith and worship, and aims to purify or redeem the human spirit. It may present a vision of a just society, but it's not easily able to have a practical political program.
Ideology: A system of ideas that's concerned with human progress, especially through political means. It's a form of social or political philosophy that aims to explain and change the world, and practical elements are just as important as theoretical ones. Ideology can guide individuals, social movements, institutions, classes, or large groups. Examples of ideologies include capitalism, communism, socialism, and Marxism.
"Semantics" is your NewSpeak for "words mean what I say they mean".
but it's not easily able to have a practical political program.
ReplyDeleteTell that to the Muslims, and your buried fear of Xtian theology.

ReplyDeleteWhat's that Karl Popper science definition again? You have to be able to disprove a theory in order for it to be considered a "science"?
ReplyDelete\\"Semantics" is your NewSpeak for "words mean what I say they mean".
ReplyDeleteYes. That's how scientists DO -- they take words... and give em NEW suiting their needs definitions. ;-P
\\What's that Karl Popper science definition again? You have to be able to disprove a theory in order for it to be considered a "science"?
That's BS.
Yawn.
What means "disprove"? ;-P
Science -- it's what can be PROVED with experiment(s).
ReplyDeleteAll other and any other (re)definitions -- is just a crooked and cretinic mumbo-jumbo. Called to approve "science" used as smacking stick for "those, who know better".
