Why does being less powerful justify somebodies actions? When Marx said, for instance, that the Proletariat would establish a dictatorship, he didn't think they were less powerful than the Capitalists, just that they didn't realize how powerful they were: for Marx, it was always a question of power. And its the powerful who rule.
- keybored 3y ago> Why does being less powerful justify somebodies actions? No one said justify so this is irrelevant. Some organization does bad things and one possible solution might be to do a good thing. The pragmatic thing is then to try to do that good thing. The ideological and nonsensical response is to not do it because that would be to do a good thing that someone bad told you to do. > When Marx said, for instance, that the Proletariat would establish a dictatorship, he didn't think they were less powerful than the Capitalists, just that they didn't realize how powerful they were: for Marx, it was always a question of power. And its the powerful who rule. Irrelevant comparison.
