Replying to:Re: ASEA water? Anyone using this? Reviews? [veganerd] by Duffy
Post:The move from a structuralist account in which capital is understood to structure social relations in relatively homologous ways to a view of hegemony in which power relations are subject to repetition, convergence, and rearticulation brought the question of temporality into the thinking of structure, and marked a shift from a form of Althusserian theory that takes structural totalities as theoretical objects to one in which the insights into the contingent possibility of structure inaugurate a renewed conception of hegemony as bound up with the contingent sites and strategies of the rearticulation of power.
Duh.

I am a weak, dumb ass pussy. Oh come on guys, all he's saying is that even Marxists no longer believe that you can predict how history develops solely by economic formation, that history is contingent.
Which is relevant here because ASEA water can make up any kind of contingent bull to sell their product, but the financial relationship is the same.
Do I get a star?
