<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Times New Roman";font-size:medium">Marx tells us that we can see alienation at two levels. First, in the relation of the worker to the product of his labor: this latter becomes alien to him, and to produce it, man must become alien to himself and to other men. That is because the product of the activity of the worker belongs to another: the activity of the one who produces constitutes her own torment, but is a pleasure to another. The external world appears alien and hostile. Second, in the relation of the worker to the act of production: as an activity alien to man, the act of production creates in her a feeling of powerlessness and of submission, "activity becomes passivity, power becomes powerlessness."</p><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Times New Roman";font-size:medium">Alien to his own nature, man is also alien to his real needs. And to complete this process, the dominant ideology unceasingly diverts the individual from his quest for his human essence and the satisfaction of his needs, and perverts those needs by providing them with false gratifications.</p><p><font color="#000000" face="Times New Roman" size="3"><a href="http://internationalist-perspective.org/IP/ip-archive/ip_43_species-being.html">http://internationalist-perspective.org/IP/ip-archive/ip_43_species-being.html</a></font><br></p><p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Times New Roman";font-size:medium"><br></p></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Tue, Dec 4, 2018 at 1:02 PM Szoke, Ron via Peace-discuss <<a href="mailto:peace-discuss@lists.chambana.net">peace-discuss@lists.chambana.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
