    Haha! Further smatterings of pretentious ego driven gobbledygook babble from the master of the genre.

    There is more than is more than one way of skinning a cat and it appears that PJ is successfully illustrating how to go about it.  There is room for both linguistic cultural styles in the class struggle even though it can be hard going on times.And if I remember correctly in the intro to Das Capital Marx apologies to the reader for his style of language used.

    Exactly what is Peter Joseph "successfully illustrating"?

    Actually, he wasn't at his worst in this particular interview. That's when he's addressing scientists and technologists and uses technobabble to try to flatter and impress them. He's much better in this kind of short 10-minute interview, though this wasn't his best. The viewer will still have got the idea that he was advocating a non-monetary system in which there will be production directly to satisfy needs. And I see he has moved on to attacking "capitalism" by name without apologising (though he still apologises here for using "exploitation" for fear of being taken for a Marxist).
