do I want to bet that you don’t know the future? absolutely. here’s a proof.
knowledge is defined as a justified true belief.
you can't have evidence about the future because it hasn't happened.
truth claims about the future have no value because it hasn't happened.
there is no justification that can produce knowledge about the future.
you don't know the future.

you don’t know the future anymore than I. you don’t know what the next revolution will look like or what would start it.

are you suggesting that Marxist revolutionary theory is a science like meteorology? it’s not.

I’m saying they can’t know the future.
They can’t perfectly predict the future in the same way that meteorologists can’t, but both beat a coin flip by a mile.
“predict” is moving the goalposts. i said they can’t know, and they asked if i wanted to bet. i know that they can’t know the future.

they can predict all they want. they can’t know, though.
