Abstract
The explicitly harmful role of working-class soldiers in capitalist society is nevertheless reproductive . The working-class soldier reproduces capitalist social relations via the reproduction of the working class, the capitalist state, and imperialism. Drawing on Marxist feminism, it becomes apparent that the household and state production processes of soldiers’ concrete labor constitute state force, and in doing so collect a wage to use in household production and reproduction, and perform reproductive domestic labor in institutional and/or private household settings. Typically, soldiers are part of the working class by virtue of their mostly, and counterintuitively, indistinct relationships to value. However, this does not necessitate a general extension of solidarity to soldiers as a sub-class, considering the nature of the concrete labor they perform. Ultimately, the case of the soldier brings into relief the impossibility of resolving the capitalist contradictions constitutive of the state and the working class.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
