When liberals ask "do you believe in the ltov?" they're poisoning the well by implying that Marxism is some completely unscientific religion. No, the LToV is more like a definition of what Marx means when he says "value" and libs love to smugly say "that isn't what value means according to xyz though" okay then we're talking about something else aren't we?

I mean I personally find the ltov to be more a more useful definition than other definitions of "value" because of what Marx does with it but to understand that you would have to read Capital and that's too much commitment for a smuglord's twitter post.

Understanding things in context was another thing Marx was big on so I'm positive he meant it to be taken that way.
