from what I've seen leftists do not actually read their books, simply buy them to put them on shelves and take photos of them to impress strangers online.

Leftists should read Plato's dialogues. Maybe it would stop them from using such meaningless terms as "racist" and "rape."

They are meaningless because the concepts they are based on are meaningless, because the concepts those concepts are based on are meaningless, ad infinitum. You just make the person keep defining terms until they get down to the point where they can't do it anymore.
You can read Plato's "Euthyphro" to see how it's done. In general reading Plato would help clean up the leftists' word jumble.

That's true. The Socratic method never really states anything. It just undermines the opposition's ability to state things because it calls everything into question, especially the definition of terms. It's not an unusual opinion among philosophers that many philosophical disagreements come down to semantics. Plato clears that up. Repeatedly in his dialogues, he requires that his interlocutors define their terms.
>you're describing how your argue endlessly by denying anything you don't like
Nothing is really denied by the Socratic method. It's just questioned, and the opposition is put in a defensive position of having to prove their side, but they also have to prove their proofs, etc., all the way down.
>and what would help the rights incoherence?
Same thing. Read Plato's dialogues.
Clean your mind.

It asks you to explain yourself and subjects these explanations to critical appraisal
So, it does undermine if its faulty
I remember talking a couple days here to someone who thought the Socratic method meant you simply asked the same question again and again coupled with coy little conspiracy suggestions to dig deeper and connect dots and other david icke tier bullshit

One could literally argue that the Leftist have gone so far south. That in lieu of being a pile of pompous bloviated hypocritical excrement and abandoning religion. That they have in fact turned their beliefs in a pseudo religion unto it's own, "apparently to fill the void left behind."
This would explain the propensity of leftist nu males performing a form what would easily equate to repentance ceremonies, attending demonstrations and events that logic dictates they are clearly unwelcome at by default simply because they were born lacking melanin.
Just as much blind unfounded faith required for this, IMO as someone walking on water and returning from the dead.
The fact they honestly believe this will end well for them, speaks volumes,

Because he genuinely doesn't know who he is or how he is linked to nationalism and modern chivalric behaviour. I have no doubt that he sees an obscure author, thinks no one else will catch him talking shit about him, and drops it in in an attempt to appear enlightened. Basically, his posts are the textual equivalent of /leftypol/'s bookcase - all gloss, but after looking at it critically enough, you see that it's all brittle polemics that have no substance to it.

You think commies could afford new books?
Ethan Lewis
How come they never turn any smarter after reading those books then?
They should be able to answer such simple questions, as following:
How can you consider a hammer or a toothbrush a personal property, when in cummunism there's no property?
What is difference between personal property and private property?
If private property covers means of production, what stops me from disassembling a mean of production and claim the parts to be my personal property?
Why would you waste resource producing more than say (hypothetically) 1 hammer/toothbrush per 7 persons?
How can one cultivate and harvest crops to personal use, when there's no personal property to be used for farming in cummunism?
How do you allocate public land for this personal farming?
Who allocates the public land used by the collective?
The ten Planks of Communist manifesto:
#8 "Equal obligation of all to work. Establishment of Industrial armies, especially for agriculture."
> Equal obligation
How can a stateless and non-hierarchical society enforce this?
> Your work-time is equivalent to everybody else's work-time
Am I forced to sit and drawn hentai for as long as others work in factory, if I don't want to do manual labour as an artist?
If "... each according to his needs", what stops me claiming to acquire 70% of goods to suffice my needs?
How can anyone else define how my needs are sufficed?
How can a collective deny me coming over demand 70% of goods that others have gathered through hard manual labour, while I can provide them only hentai sketches?
How is Theft defined in cummunist world, when there's no property in non-hierarchical society you can steal from others?

FUG U COMMIENIGGER
Robert Butler
The problem that the modern leftist comes up against is that core tenets of your ideology are simply false. Leftists generally hyper focus on the aspects of capitalism that demonstrably lead to negative outcomes; the homeless schizophrenic on the street who literally has nowhere to go and say "see, inequality! it is undeniable!", as if this vindicates the larger leftist narrative.
But it doesn't.
Numerous core tenets of the leftist ideology are demonstrably false. For example.
1) There is no evidence that "equality" exists as anything other than an abstraction. The nature of evolution as well as variation between individuals and life forms suggests inequality a norm. This includes different average group capacities between groups. There's no evidence for racial or gender equality. It's just an ideological system that has gained proliferation through a media/academia consensus and through intimidation tactics. You can have your life destroyed for questioning it.
No-one can point to any actual scientific evidence that supports the claims of racial or gender equality, there just isn't any. What there is is increasingly desperate and abstract attempts to debunk the more consistent and clear evidence AGAINST the equality ideology. These attempts are getting increasingly more and more deranged every year.
This will always be a problem for leftists because it is verboten among leftist circles to question this belief.
There's also the various absurdities such as transgenderism. The idea that you can "identify" as a woman or a man and you are therefore "just as much a woman or a man" as a biological woman/man is an extremely flimsy idea philosophically. If it is true, then it applies equally to questions of race. One can "identify" as han-Chinese.
There isn't any clear Leftist response to this other than, again, intimidation tactics. Calling someone "transphobe" and then getting them fired from their job.
Bentley Evans
And yet communism still manages to fail every fucking time
Daniel Ross
Alternatively the Leftist will respond to rebuttals of core tenets of their ideology by switching the focus, to one where they are on more solid ground. Like the clear example of a throwaway person in the capitalist system; the homeless schizophrenic.
They use arguments like this to distract from the larger incongruence of their ideology. "Erm, forget about providing proof for the claim of racial/gender equality, Capitalism is bad!"
This is also similar to the way that Leftists manage to maintain the delusion that they are "rebels, fighting the system". They will hyper focus on one element of state power that they disagree with, say lobbying groups and multi-national mega-corps effect on policy. But then they'll ignore the fact that they are ideologically in total agreement with the system on virtually every other issue than the economic one.
The Leftist isn't actually a rebel, he simply believes in a fetishized sense of rebellion. The Leftist is actually a blind enforcer of the modern system of Western morality that replaced Christian morality; anti-racism and equality.
The moral context of the white world, where you can achieve Good Little White Person points by demonstrating to other Good Little White People how much of a GoodWhite you are, because you believe all the correct things in regards to racial equality and immigration; is not even discussed among leftist circles.
It is simply taken as fact. It is the water that you swim in. It's the bedrock of the Leftist ideology. Leftists are not rebels, they refuse to question their own beliefs and instead seek to silence any questioning of their beliefs. They do this while simultaneously pretending to be Rebels. It is quite bizarre and Orwellian
