Moved from /theory to /learning.
How is the assertion that world war is just as much a driver of world history as class struggle primarily an issue of learning over being a mostly theoretical issue?
It is mostly theoretical as an issue on how world war is viewed in relation to world history and the class struggle. What's mostly "learning" about it?

Because the question speaks to a theory of history and not the history of a theory?

I was making a joke. A bad joke, like all of my jokes.
What Pavel said. This thread either belongs in chit-chat or the trash can.

What does your ignorant reply have anything to do with what 'Hit The North' is saying?
It's one thing to simply assert that the thread switch was correct, but another thing to make a logical, concrete argument for why the thread switch was correct.

Perhaps it's because the thread was a simple one sentence question and not a well-fleshed out theory to discuss.

Theory is what we learn, so the forum title doesn't matter except learning presumably stresses questions or beginner issues. There's already a world wars/struggle thread nearby on

Not sure how your post here addresses the question of why discussion of my assertion that world war can be just as much a driver of history as class struggle is not a theoretical issue.
Given that Marxist orthodoxy asserts that class struggle is the primary driver of history, my assertion that world war is just as much a driver of world history as class struggle, would be a key theoretical issue.
My hypothesis about world war and its relation to world history might be both a learning and theoretical topic. However I think the radicality of the hypothesis would cause an objective observer to place the topic first of all in a theoretical forum as opposed to a learning Marxist/Radicalism forum.

Simply because there is a world war thread doesn't mean it addresses my assertion that world war (and inter-capitalist rivalry) has just as much impact on history as class struggle. Nor does that make it a poorly and inaccurately labelled learning vs theory question.
My assertion is a key proposition regarding Marxist theory if one gives half a thought to it. It overturns the traditional Marxist community theoretical assertion that class struggle is the primary driver of history in the capitalist era.
