    L Bird thinks that we are grammar school children. I have read a lot of books on sciences, and I have read what I need, and many of those bits of knowledge are not to be applied in a socialist society. I am talking about your constant obsession about idealism/materialism and materialism/idealism, something that I heard and heard for several years from News and Letters, nothing new for me. I threw it  in the trash bin

    We will require specialisms. But considerations about decisions about which applications of those will prevail, will reside within an informed society.”

    It seems we agree, Matt.

    A democratic socialist society will be ‘an informed society’ which makes its own ‘decisions’, not a powerful ‘elite’.

    The implication of this is that ‘truth’ will be elected, by a democratic scientific method. ‘Truth’ will not be determined by an ‘elite’, and certainly not by an unconscious ‘matter’.

    That’s not a good method, marcos.

    Critical thinking about scientific issues, and the ability to form persuasive arguments for other workers, is the method we should adopt.

    You’ve often shown disdain for these issues, but I’ve never read any informed criticism from you, about why you reject Marx’s views, even though you’ve actually read what Marx himself wrote.

    But, it’s your political choice…
