Hello, hello. Yes, this is Tvamolone. New Farm Freedom, May, hope you're doing well. So that's interesting. I was trying to figure out sort of what's going on with the socialists and the anarcho-socialists and so on, and their critique of capitalism, right? So let's have a look at this. This is from Anarchy Studies,, Labor Issue Social Economics, as of 2018, by John Beckham.

Bend it like Beckin.

All right, Peter Kropotkin devoted a major part of his prolific anarchist writings to two related themes,

examining the actual workings of capitalist economies and developing the broad outlines of an anarcho-communist society.

Krapakin was not satisfied to merely assert that a free society was possible,

he sought to show how such a society could be constructed from the materials at hand,

realizing that a revolutionary movement that failed to consider the problems of production

and distribution would quickly collapse.

This installment outlines Krapotkin's critique of capitalist political economy.

So, what are the socialists saying that is so objectional about the capitalism?

It's great question.

For me, anyway, very interesting.

Economic doctrine.

For Krapotkin, the purpose of political economy was to study

society's needs and the means available, either currently in use or which could be developed

with present knowledge, to meet them. To study society's needs and the means available

to meet them.

So it is not to study what is true and good and right and moral.

It is not a moral study.

It is a study of meeting people's needs, not morals.

Now, this is, again, 51, 49, a little bit more, this is a female perspective, that the

important thing is to meet someone's needs rather than the morality of the situation, right?
