In considering your videos on both Marx's thought as well as those attacking religious ideologies, I wonder why you bother to even address the latter, considering that religion is--if I read my Marx correctly--the wrong answer to the right question, so to speak. Isn't it the Liberal rationalism of the bourgeois mind which attempts to understand religion simply as a mental block, when it is the very essence of its communalism which it draws members?
@prolelog You are right, Marx said that religion is not a result of an aberration in the mental process, a mistake of consciousness, but a social product of the existing social relations, and servitude, themselves reflecting existing relations in production (private property of the means of production).
I am not creating a movement, tactics to fight the existing unjust social order. I am in the world of ideas, I talk about the ideas I consider correct, and I make videos correcting wrong ideas
@Trotskisty I quote that sentence at the end of my video "Karl Marx - Criticism of Religion".
No movement can be started, nor any practice entered into, without the people knowing about Marx's philosophy. So that's what I am doing here, in my small way, bringing it to the open. And I am pleased to say, there is continued interest to my videos about Marx.
The point is to engage in the proper praxis which does not rely solely on the intellectual side of the labor. But under the circumstances, I do not begrudge you your method of work, here on Youtube.
@themiddleman009 I understood your metaphore, but It's not a remark about the content of the video. There are things that I don't agree with Marx entirely about, but I do think that ideas that predominate in a society, are determined by the social relations - you know, who possesses how much (and has more power and influence), who is working for who, and so on. And I don't mean separate individuals, but what Marx called class.
@dewinthemorning :0 (shit just got real) the remark i had made was a bull headed poke at your acsent (witch i think is russian although i maybe wrong) the comment though should NOT be taken as a serious statement rather a trollish unrealated responce. im sorry ive desracted from the subject at hand with my childish remarks but as the great Eduard Khil said "trolololo". in the end i would hope your not mad....bro
@themiddleman009 Mad? You are kidding! I appreciated your "trollish unrealated responce" and laughed, because it's funny. I am sorry I seem so uptight. I am fun in real life, just a bit insecure on you tube.
My accent is not Russian, You'll never guess what accent I have. :)
@dewinthemorning its sad you didnt get the your mad bro reffurence :[ its such a popullar meme. i will have s end you some troll science for you to understand
@kalsolarUK I want your advice. I was interrupted a lot while editing this video, so I cut off many things that are important. Should I delete this video and edit a new, a bit longer one, but fuller?
@kalsolarUK If you are not entirely satisfied then there's nothing wrong with re-editing it to include the bits that you feel are missing. Or you could just do a second part to this part er... if that makes sense. A sort of addendum.

@dewinthemorning:
Remember the XI-th (and last) of Marx' "Theses on Feuerbach":
"The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point is to change it."

@kalsolarUK That's exactly what I was thinking, even the word 'addendum' came to my mind. Thank you. :)
It is an inexhaustible subject (alas, not so amusing as your videos).
