Chess is a very annoying game, I've been playing it a lot. Eric Rosen on youtube was a good find.

Reply to comment by AReadingAttack in Does anybody want to read Proudhon's "Philosophy of Progress" (62pgs) and then "Principles of Philosophy of Progress" together on raddle? by AReadingAttack
Yeah, they're different texts, from around the same time.
edit: Right, the pdf contains both texts. I should probably read the thing.

f/readingclub and f/mutualism are available for this, I don't think it needs a new forum.
I'm not sure if they meant just the section "Principles of Philosophy of Progress" in the pdf they link, or if it's the whole pdf. Which would make it either 33 pages or 100 pages.
"Principles" is from the Economy manuscripts, so I think we're talking about ~100 pages total.
The Philosophy of Progress might be best read as a two-parter, I'm not sure it divides well into 15-page parts. In any case, I'm interested, I'll be around.

Who is "we"?
Why a book of CrimethInc critiques?

I like it better when Kropotkin doesn't imitate Marx.
["Imitate" is a strong word. "Resemble" or something probably would have done it.]

Reply to Hunter-gatherers were mostly gatherers, ate largely plant-based diets says archaeologist by ziq
Is why green anarchy folks in the 90s started using the term gatherer-hunters. So this seems like old news to me.

No I haven't had the time yet. That's why I'm asking people what they think.
"Have you read his shit?" was more of a rhetorical question, probably reads a bit more aggressive than intended.
Why do you think that being anthropologist is not compatible with being an anarchist?
No, as in, I do not believe they're incompatible. Would be an odd assumption to make for either of us. My position is that Graeber, the anarchist is a less likely figure than Graeber the anthropologist, Mauss-Marxian anti-capitalist, UBI advocate, media guy for protest movements, democratic reformer, etc.

read plenty Marx in the early 2010s, heavy focus on Kapital Vol 1. Yes, I'm truly tired of them.

Marxist enough for me to call him Marxist and to dismiss his writings as useless.

What makes him seem like a Marxist?
Have you read his shit? Graeber talks about Marxism much more than he ever bothers with anarchist ideas. Theorizing value theories and modes of production and direct democracy, while locating the exploitative mechanism of capitalism in exchange, markets, currencies. Marxism in a nutshell.
do you think being an anthropologist is not compatible with being an anarchist?
No.

Media friendly and academic sort of "radical". More of an anthropologist, Marxist and democratic reformer than an anarchist. Almost as superficially anarchist as Chomsky. "99%" and "Bullshit Jobs" are fine slogans. Debt, to pick one example, is an insultingly boring read.

They played that thing to death on TV. Kind of want to revisit it now.

Neither needs preventing imo. Reflect on the need, think of it as a desire rather than a lack, and see if that desire can be 'routed' and applied differently, in more advantageous ways.

Marathonning the Fast and the Furious franchise for the first time, aiming for at least 5 movies, on an admittedly excessive amount of weed. What could go wrong?
(Kind of not a question, but I figure this is a chat thread of sorts. Anyway, I worry about an overdose, please do share any medical advice you have on how to respond to acute overexposure to Vin Diesel.)
