all i am saying is that if you are going to pose a religion when talking about politics a key component of your pose might be to find and briefly skim the one contemporary document absolutely crucial to your fake position. thats all im saying

like, advocating open borders to end the gaza siege is like advocating an end of gender to stop sex trafficking. neither of these things are gonna happen anytime soon and it would be much easier so solve the 'derivative' problems through other means. you might as well advocate teleporting everyone out of gaza

i don't think anyone is advocating that. i'm trying to get a little bit more nuanced discussion than one that seems to follow the logic of "all restrictions on labor mobility is good because capital triumphalizes its form of free labor"

i mean the capitalist system restricts movement far more than it frees it in any case



the topic needs to be expounded on heavily to do the question any justice. i guess it all depends on what is a satisfactory answer to the question of "borders bro?" and in what context (ideological, pragmatic, etc...). i suppose "neo-liberalism bad; full communism good" will have to suffice given the intent with rhe question has no barring on any praxis. i agree though, the truht lies in the dialectical middle

Joel has been Catholic posting for a long time, i don't think he is faking. Maybe he just hasn't been studying for more than a couple years.

the statement "protestant/secular/liberal modernity invented the concept of human rights toward bourgeois ends" and the statement "the church has since used and/or referenced this concept, long after it became hegemonic, in its official documents" aren't irreconcilable fuckboi

IWC asked where the idea of "human rights" came from. Like so many other core elements of modern philosophy, it is a Renaissance/Enlightenment idea which abstracts traditional Christian ideas into areligious terms. This is a question of history, not of Catholic teaching. Obviously the Church supports human rights, but it would not have used such language before the normalization of secularism.

"The European wars of religion and the civil wars of seventeenth century England gave rise to the philosophy of liberalism and belief in human rights became a central concern of European intellectual culture during the 18th century Age of Enlightenment."

where does the supposedly inviolable nature of 'human rights' come from anyway, some Swiss bureaucrat? i'm always surprised when i hear people talking about human rights to be honest, i thought it would have gone the way of 'where's the beef' or 'workers of the world unite'

you're kind of like baby huey in that you have this anti-canon of highly influential people whose thought you outright dismiss as being thoroughly worthless. and it seems like its based on like a superficial reading or disagreement with popular notion of their work rather than a proper engagement with it. like weber not asserting economic determinism therefore he sucks. kind of silly if u ask me

it's like watching a junkie, who has destroyed his body with heroin, making an instructional youtube video of how to shoot up and watching the needle slowly plunge into his arm then shooting up the most disgusting black tar imaginable. the guy needs a keto intervention; it is utterly unconscionable that we exist in such a society where gluten and starches can be so easily obtained in large quantities.

Thanks for the insightful post that also happens to be wrong. Apparently, you, on the otherhand, are chalk full of Gluten -- Gluten for punishment, that is. Your libidinous drive to be repeatedly cucked by obese men with micro penises (like yours truly) has now spilled over into the virtual world, manifesting in outbursts of sadomasochistic posting. I'm sorry, I won't be a part of it or complicit in your attempts at personal brand self-destruction. Leave me out of it, as well as your ill-conceived, fucked up, misconceptions about Rice-a-Roni and subsequent defense mass produced commercial carb products [read: POISON].
