      The danger here is that Marxism promotes misunderstanding of money. Religion was orthogonal to the understanding of money. Thus, man sought to escape the (sometimes beneficial) magical thinking of religion only to fall into far more harmful magical thinking.

      Go back and reread this tweet. This is the point most people miss. These Marxist professors aren't stupid. They are very clever, knowledgeable, and charismatic when it comes to their jobs. If they weren't, nobody would fall for it. https://twitter.com/MimeticValue/status/1015397387337125888 …

      @nntaleb recognized that Marx was original: "The 4 most influential moderns: Darwin, Marx, Freud, and Einstein were scholars, not academics. It has always been hard to do genuine work within institutions." But remember not all original thinkers are correct or good.

      When Marxists critique capitalism, they are criticizing consumerism and inequality, which are amplified through fiat and credit. Fair enough. But they fail to understand the mechanisms of sound money that can regulate levels of consumerism and inequality.

      Labor theory of value is nonsense. Value is determined by a consensus network of reciprocal exchange. The underlying logic of money markets is mimetic. Marxists are materialist essentialists who fail to comprehend the mimetic nature of our desires.

      In my opinion, value combines two different things: 1/ work exchange (money given for your work, money as purchase power, as a mean to buy others work) AND 2/ the law of supply and demand, where, truly, imitation and conflict cans deeply modify value.

      There's something here that I've the trouble finding the words for. I think you're mostly right. Question is what is this work you're doing creating? If you're producing a good that's high on Maslow's Hierarchy, then it's still mimetic desire at the root.

      I think there is a confusion even here. Work is done toward a goal. A goal in itself has a value determined by market. There are various means to that end. The effectiveness of those means is valued by markets. The ends are Mimetic, the means perhaps not, tho they spread thus.

      Could then the missing element be “technology”? Means are a method and technology is a method whereby one approaches closer to reality by the use of scientific feedback. There is some aspect of physicality in valuation reflected in the use of technology because it must conform

      This also opens up discussion of unethical treatment of labor as similar to treating persons as technology or commodity, as beast of burden.

          And this is a biblical idea. Commodification of other humans is “sin” in Christianity. It is subordination of the other to means rather than ends in themselves. God never does this, the other is supreme in Love.

          But on the other hand the Bible seems to believe value is a social phenomena. This is found in the abundance mentality of Christ and his disciples. There are no limits on love, food is multiplied miraculously, and all talents and even salvation is a gift.

          This over against there being no room in the inn, giving unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s, and it being expedient that one man should die so that the nation might live.

          It seems to me that many of the labor value arguments come out of a place of “protecting labor”, and I think this is mistake because it simultaneously seems to commodify labor even more. A human being is far more valuable than the work he is able to produce for markets.

          "Protecting labor" is not my main subject, rather "unemployment". Money escaping from industrial economy is unemployment, unused purchasing power, unused work mob-ilization. And a need of our time is to make finance help fighting against climate change, to mobilize work for that.

          This view requires spiritual insight. The simultaneous existence of the vast multitudes of the poor and the unused cash stockpiles in today’s technology companies signals lack of this insight to my eyes.
