Transphobic passage in Marx's Capital? Anonymous 12/05/25(Fri)19:09:01 No.24928400 Archived

I was reading the second volume today when I stumbled upon this passage:
>And here appears the absolute necessity that all capital be either fixed or circulating somewhat like the natural necessity that a mammal be male or female.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1885-c2/ch10.htm
this seems concerning

a better question would be whether reading the "or" as implying a sexuated continuum in both terms of the analogy disrupts the overall scheme of capital

Gender, like Marxism, is a spectrum.

I think it says something about the hazards of applying natural biology to the laws of economics or political philosophy.

Just wait till your realize Capital has reached the stage of accumulation and development that the very biological basis of sex and it’s identity is being commodified through sex changes, hormone therapy, and the cornucopia of money making grifting to be made off of the manufactured tranny hysteria going on currently. Trannies are pure grade capitalist Frankenstein Guinea pigs.

Transhumanism is just people thinking they're smarter than evolution. They're wrong.

Transhumanism is a misnomer disguising posthumanism which is entirely anti-human and threatens a total war, genocidal friend-enemy distinction.
