    The middle part of the cross seems to be the same color.

    That is because the colors red and yellow will reflect similarly whether under blue or yellow light.

    Capitalist life itself is an illusion according to Althusser.

    I think he means 'for poor people capitalist life is an illusion'.

    I think he bases it on Marx's labour-value theory according to which a worker alienates himself from his own output (his self-realization) because of the capitalist mode of labour. When you place a value over his output, that wage goes in between the worker and his labour and eventually replaces the produce.
    To comouflage and compare this alienation, he attributes values to things and manages social relations, status and etc accordingly.

    I dont think rich people can avoid it either. Because they are profiting over the same value mechanism.

    I must be half retarded because both of them look like two different colors to me.

    This is rediculous. They don't look the same at all. The middle of the one on the left is grey and the one on the right is yellow with a blue overlay.


    What the hell is this supposed to be?

    I think half of you are just playing along.
