marxology deep cuts with kevin carson

like i genuinely doin't know how he misses this, his own citations contain passages that would correct the misunderstanding

his arguments are largely orthogonal to marx and are mostly responding to classical pol-econ or marginalists but every time he says something about marx it's just wrong

i also think its interesting that when he was establishing some central points of marx early on, he exclusively cited things written 10-20 years prior to vol1, lol

"Under capitalism, distinguished as a system of privilege from a genuine free market, ..." its embarrassing to even critique, but its astounding the extent to which lwmas rely on the shriveled philosophical notion of "privilege" as a central pillar

the load-bearing moralism on display is just kinda sad too, but i feel like i'm beating a dead horse
