Summary:[...]when I was asked to respond to the book on a panel at SPEP, I jumped at the chance.Since abstract labor time is the basis of this equivalence, all labor, each individual worker, is equivalent.By the time French philosophers came to critique the traditional notion of the subject and of subjectivity, it was already dispensed with by over-developed capitalist societies.[...]even if I want to remain an intersectional Marxist, I now need to search for new modes of analysis in order to capture the ghosts that haunt our society as it is currently constituted.Send forth your petition and let them read it by the red glare of destruction.[...]when you cast "one long lingering look behind" you can be assured that you have spoken to these robbers in the only language which they have ever been able to understand, for they have never yet deigned to notice any petition from their slaves that they were not compelled to read by the red glare bursting from the cannon's mouths, or that was not handed to them upon the point of the sword. .
