they do matter, and they matter especially when you have some socialists coming in with dogma or trying to instil a universal social life predicated on white western ideals of what society should look like
what time has shown however is that many socialists have very different ideas of what this social life should be like or how it should be structured
these questions do not stop us from organizing against a neoliberal regime which seeks to quash all human social life indiscriminately, but considering they are the reason we fight (for socialism) it would be folly to say they don't matter
one thing i do agree with early marx about is that socialism is the struggle for the SOCIAL LIFE OF MAN, a struggle in which we can ALL BE UNITED through a SHARED COMMON INTEREST which need not be manifest in the INDIVIDUAL OR EGOISTIC LIFE of INDIVIDUAL PERSONS
i think it would probably not be insignificant and require devising/learning initial/medial/final/isolate forms for all the letters
@Satsuma i differentiate between these terms and own/use both a dish rag and a dish towel, but i would never call a dish towel a dish towel, i would just call it a towel (or kitchen towel if one needed to be specific)
i would consider tea towel to be a subset of dish towel although again in practice i would never actually say that word
suppose i have a finite numeric value less than 1 and greater than or equal to 0, like 0.231
i build a loop which, in each step:
- multiplies the value by 10
- drops the integral component so that only the fractional part remains
e.g. 0.231 → 0.31 → 0.1 → 0.
the loop finishes when the resulting value is 0
clearly this algorithm will terminate for any value in decimal space
will it also necessarily always terminate for any value in floating‐point space?
