Well, hack into their dreams.

So is it true? Did Herbert Marcuse transition Leftism into becoming absorbed into Liberalism? Is that why the Left are obsessed with identity and freedom?

critical theory was co-opted by the cia to maintain division in the proletariat class.

I thank this man for saving me from reading Hegel everyday. Say thank you /lit/

What did the Frankfurt School mean by this?

Hi /lit/, I need to decide what to change my major to today and I am torn between philosophy and English literature. My university has a heavy analytical focus which I don’t like (maybe overall there is a total of 4 continental courses out of dozens) and they make you take a couple mandatory philosophy courses that are pretty dry and would be a chore to sit through for 3 hours. Hoping to get some thoughts. Thanks bros.

Can somebody give me a quick rundown?

What value do his theses hold in a consumer economy? One-Dimensional Man feels super outdated to me

Please convince me that there is nothing important to be found in the writings of "postmodern" philosophers and sociologists. I just want to live my life without worrying about a potential ebil capitalists/consumerist conspiracy. Please.

OP. The answer to your question lies in Herbert Marcuse, he was the one who get rid of the working class as a revolutionary class after the welfare state and elected gays, women and the black lumpenproletariat as the new collective Messiah.

No, they are the logical outcome of Marcusean shift to communism (getting rid of the working class and trying to enlist support among women, gays, blacks and the lumpen-intelligentsia).

This is just communists trying to enlist whatever support they can after they lost the white working class in the 1960s.
