Marx’s Problematic Antisemitism

I recently took an interest in Marx’s more marginal positions: those relating to the philosophy of right(s), the concept of statehood, and, furthermore, that of citizenship. My drive was not pure curiosity, however. It was, in all honesty, because of an apparent resurgence in the idea that Marx was an antisemite.

Squeeze A Lemon, Flavor Will Follow · 12:16am Mar 7th, 2020

Hello everyone!

I just want to quickly promote the first-ever fiction of a beloved friend of mine, Pocketbot. This story has been a long time in the making and the quality, I believe, shows!

The pain of three mares not quite prepared for the existential crisis of adulthood. Concise, often punchy, sometimes painful, it will leave you curled on the ground. For a first publication, it is quite the piece.

Heartful Of Lemonade

The Cutie Mark Crusaders, now grown up, resolve to break free from the staleness of Ponyville life and make it big in Canterlot. One by one, as the three friends go their separate ways, they quickly realize that life isn't quite that easy.

If you find the time, please give it a read and leave a comment. New writers need them.
