This reduces our product 'organic nature' to a 'countable' world of discrete individual bits, an ideology which reflects the 'individualist' world of the bourgeoisie.PS. A very interesting article, the best that I've read in the Socialist Standard.I beg to differ. 'Digital' is an economic product of capitalism. The bourgeoisie produce nothing other than fulfilling the role of being the personification of capital.
BrianParticipantThe street stall yesterday was pretty good. We seem to be an attraction for Canadian's with a £5 donation from our first conversation. Handed out a couple of dozen leaflets and several back issues of the Socialist Standard. Noticable not so many conversations.Two comrades handed out leaflets at the Suffragettes march in Cardiff today.
BrianParticipantYesterday 2nd June we had a excellent reception with the stall. Had many conversations, several back issues of the Socialist Standard handed out and a pamphlet bought and paid for with C$5. Lots of leaflets taken.It was decided that seeing we're on a roll that we try an experiment next Saturday 9th June between 1pm and 3pm – weather permitting.

Thanks for that. Yes when I use your link I also end up in my own stats. Probably to do with Quora's Privacy policy that the stats gathered on users is for their information only. This being the case I'll cease providing the links and just provide the number of views recorded and the answers distributed.

However, it will affect a 'Buddy system' at a very low level in regards to consent of preferences and profiling and their use between Buddies. This can be mitigated by only exchanging names and email addresses between Buddies.

BrianParticipant"There is little reason to imagine that climate change won’t break the modern food system. Worse, industrial food production is a breeding ground for pandemic disease, and reasoned analysis suggests that the kind of concentrated animal-feeding operations that bring us cheap meat will also bring viruses that could decimate the human population. Again, this is nothing new. Just as early-modern climate change and the plague brought about the end of feudalism and the beginning of capitalism, so we face a future in which climate change and a vulnerability to big systemic shocks augur a dramatic end for capitalism’s ecology."So what happened to class struggle?

If not, why did Cardiff Marxist Group leave?I only had a very brief conversation with them lasting around three minutes during which they said they had done their homework on the SPGB and were interested in meeting with us. They did say they had left SPEW over disagreement on the class struggle. No mention was made of 'Marxist World'.

By all accounts this group is made up of ex-members of SPEW.
