Good, thank you for pointing this out Comrade 🤝🏼

 

(Yes, I know this is not strictly a tank). But it was also used in offensive tasks, as a tank.

These stupid creatures do not know what fascism is, if they insult ML like this. There is no ideology better at fascism removal. How many nazi was killed by anarchokiddies, socdems and such "marxists"? How many KV-2 and ISU-152 these ideologies organized against fascism?

As far as I remember, I meant that scientist are able to predict response by observation of brain process, almost surely, not by simulation of a process of a brain. Some brain activity were supposed to tell that the patient will select precisely this switch

The fact that we cannot predict something does not imply that we have a free will, probably by any definition.

My conjucture is that something is deterministic or not, nothing in between. And as was mentioned above, determinism may be not unique or not at all factor in the discussion about the free will.

What a coincidence! Yesterday I read about L. Zamenhof, the creator of Esperanto, in Wrocław at an exhibition billboard at the city market.

Found innacuracy: "The far-right Confederation party". The Confederation party is in fact neo-nazi party, something like AfD in Germany.

You sound correct Comrade, however, in my experience, it is very hard to change a mind of people who are strongly biased. Maybe our words matter, but if they are only a drop of truth in a brown nazi sea, they change almost nothing. When I tell a man that franco was mass murderer, but he responds that "this does not matter, cause they were communist", I see no point to talk more (real situation, sadly). If there is no fertile field, you will fail to grow a seed.

I saw too late, that I broke the "The entire showerthought must be in the title" rule :( Cannot change community now, I suppose.

 

First of all, I need to say that, even if it is ignorant, I even do not bother to read philosophical speculations.

I am interested in empirical premises. I've heard that there is some research, where scientists, monitoring activity of a person's brain, are able to predict which switch (s)he's going to switch, before (s)he does, or maybe before (s)he's conscious about the choice. This implies that our decisions are results of some chemical processes determined aside of our "free choice" and so called free will is only an illusion, a way in which alternatives presents to us, while the choice is made already deep in our minds unconsciously and maybe even deterministically. Does anybody know this research and could cite it?

Since I am constantly busy, I really sucks in the theory, so could anybody say what's the Marxist stance on free will if any?

 

I found an information, that Klaus Barbie, the sadistic head of gestapo in Lyon, was an U$ spy, but Wikipedia tells nothing about it, it only gives a criptic link at the bottom to der Spigel article: https://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/from-nazi-criminal-to-postwar-spy-german-intelligence-hired-klaus-barbie-as-agent-a-740393.html

The Spigel article says that Americans helped flee Barbie to Bolivia in 1951. In some Polish source I found that in 1951 he fleed to Argentina, with the help of catholic bishop Alois Hudal (the one who helped dr Mengele), and then Barbie fleed to Bolivia.

This is so dirty I want to vomit.

 
 

As the author writes:

"The philosophy of mathematics is not the most vital issue facing Marxists today, but its clarifcation can help us argue that the materialist framework is the correct one for making sense of every aspect of the world."

 

In Greek, "private" means "ιδιωτικός", spelled something like "idioticos". Sounds funny for me.
