Hey, I’m sorry, my post was a bit. It’s a quote from Chomsky when asked about dialectics.

This is a great explanation and tbh very helpful. I genuinely appreciate that you’re taking the time to explain this stuff cause it is pretty difficult. :heart-sickle:

Great post, Neera! It’s important that we avoid centering western nations when discussing colonialism and imperialism.

Dialectics is one that I’ve never understood, actually - I’ve just never understood what the word means. Marx doesn’t use it, incidentally, it’s used by Engels. And if anybody can tell me what it is, I’ll be happy. I mean, I’ve read all kinds of things which talk about “dialectics” - I haven’t the foggiest idea what it is. It seems to mean something about complexity, or alternative positions, or change, or something. I don’t know.
