>Germany's left has its own tales of abuse. One of the goals of the German 1968 movement was the sexual liberation of children. For some, this meant overcoming all sexual inhibitions, creating a climate in which even pedophilia was considered progressive.

and you can see history repeat itself with the whole lgbt/gender ideology movement, mandatory drag queen story hour and the push for transgender toddlers. Once you learn about history you will realise, Leftists have never been motivated by rational or concern for the common man, but by the perverse and fanatical impulse to normalise, promote and engage in every imaginable abnormal sex act, up to-and including- bestiality, pedophilia, and necrophilia. Anti capitalism is just a cover for their true depraved sexual motivations.

tldr= Marxism went out of style in the mid 20th century due to the large death toll of communist regimes. In order for Marxists to keep their ideas alive they shifted the narrative from proletariat vs bourgeoisie to many different structures of us vs them.

Blacks against the oppressive whites
Women against the oppressive men
Gays against the oppressive heterosexuals

These became the primary narratives that many leftist intellectuals pushed on the public. The emphasis is always on power dynamics and oppression.

This will trigger /lit/ for two reasons: its an oversimplification (which it is, and I am aware of that) and because the video is JBP. I agree that JBP is reductionist, and even sometimes just plain wrong, in his views on both Marxism and postmodernism, but I think his assessment of neo-Marxism is fundamentally correct.

>>14598984

>>14599001
Doesn't it describe a legitimate phenomenon, though?

>>14599054
it's quite obvious to everyone that the phenomeon you describe is real, it's the term 'cultural marxism' that bothers people. Marx' whole thing was about material conditions being the most important aspect of society.

>>14599023
This. cultural marxism is fucking real. From the F-test, to civil rights, to water fluoridation, mkultra, feminism, pornography, psychiatry, mass immigration, lgbt hollywood entertainment, drugs, these were all jewish led endeavours aimed at undermining the white gentile volksgeist. After WWII, a massive program of 'democratic education' was implemented worldwide with the goal of neutralizing tribalism and Man's god given Fear, Hatred, Disgust and Aggression reflexes, reflexes which as we all know form the basis of any functioning civilization. Fascism is a natural immune system response that kicks in whenever things get too degenerate, even the full strenght of the ZOG machine can only keep the white man down for so long.

They certainly seem chummy with each other at the Ivy League schools

different people have different interpretations as to what "cultural marxism" means.
Frankfurt school, in a roundabout way, addressed the questions as to "what would marx think if he was aware of Freud and psychoanalys?" So instead of just economics being determining structures of social life the interplay of economics and the Freudian subconscious becomes important.

its also a conspiracy theory about "multiculturalism" and so on that doesn't really make any sense

>>14599088
It's a mixture of capitalism and "cultrual marxism". Capitalism has essentially absorbed the 60s counter-culture.

I'm pretty sure at this point that things like transgenderism, otherkinism, etc. is just capitalism manufacturing desires as liberalism alienates people from their legitimate, natural roles in a social hierarchy. Notice how most of these people are unmarried and in debt?

>>14599094
Yes academics are bougie boys generally

>>14599071
Well, it encapsulates the right's tendency to reduce all competing ideas into plots to destroy the one true people, so I suppose it could describe that phenomenon. It says nothing of Marxism or the cultures of Marxists, however.

Only if cultural capital counts against the exceptionally greater wealth found amid industry giants, even administrators (who are not academics, typically).

Maybe the right noticed that both marxists and liberals talk about hating white men all the time. in fact Marxists seem to talk about hating white men more than class these days, which is decidedly fucking weird for a materialist ideology that emphasizes economic class.

Regardless, ownership of Capital does not mean "hedge fund manager" anymore, EVERYONE with a 401k owns Capital, it's just decentralized. The retirement plan of 90% of the working class revolves around capital investment now.

The only people left who do not gradually accumulate capital are the homeless and mexican slave laborers who are brought in to strikebust the rest of the working class to suppress their wages for the benefit of investors.

There wasn't a "National Socialist" movement before the NSDAP that Hitler perverted, dumbfuck.

>>14599016
This meme is retarded, you faggots know he was literally put in charge of brainwashing post war germany right? Identifying negative ways capitalism and modernity affects people isn't the same as finding it "evil" or trying to stop it. The frankfurt school absolutely used their observations and encouraged modern pathologies for their own gain.

If you wanted to actually find people who made these observations and didn't think "hey lets abuse all this shit for our own benefit" You could look to any number of religious or traditional philosophies. The frankfurt school sees culture industry as one parasitic giant machine designed to take normie hyperpeasant pre-conceptual consciousness and metastasize it. Take the average person's pathetic cringing fear of being different or excluded, their barely-human, mostly animal "MUST APPEASE HERD" roil of affects and social cues, and plug it into a giant network of social structures designed to reinforce it, appease it, flatter it, make it worse in every way. Rather than trying to eliminate it however, they simply abuse it for their "marxist" (now corrupted and viewed through a holocaust trauma lens) ends. Obviously their is a distaste for it, but they view the proles with simple contempt for what they are rather than with sympathy or even zerlous disgust that they should never have existed in such a state. They don't actually care about the existence of this evil itself. This is what cultural marxism is, taken the pathologies of modernism and abusing them to gain power footholds for post WW2 marxism.

Hitler invading Poland was clearly not part of the original program. The Jew thing also went overboard

>>14599087
Unironically correct. The frankfurt school has PTSD from the holohoax which completely perverted the goals and objectives of marxism to an unironic crusade to create the world of the last man. That's not to say unironic "real marxism has never been tried" marxism is a particularly appealing economic and social system, but it's far from what the Frankfurt school wants.

This shilling of the Frankfurt school and "cultural marxism doesn't exist" clique is obviously just midwits who want to dissociate from /pol/. They see them recognizing the unsavory aspects of modernity and think this must mean they are fighting the good fight against it and not simply abusing these pathologies to push their own agenda (which can hardly even be called marxism)

>>14599758
That's not what I mean obviously. They're fundamental things that make up the ideology. If you are able to point out what those are then you can point to any society and see if it fits. We can't call the United States socialist or fascist because it doesn't meet the requirements.

You might be able to call them Marxist if you could prove that had plans to become socialist but they were not socialist. They did the exact opposite of what Marx said needed to happen in a country. They were extremely anti-socialist in how the society functioned. Lenin himself called it state capitalism and it never went past that.

>>14599788
>All shallow and never get passed critiquing the superstructure

It was obviously referring to what people who deny cultural marxism's existence use to refute it, which is obviously Frankfurt school critiques of the superculture. No one is arguing it is an was an entire school of philosophies only purpose. The freudian element alone is enough to make it obvious to anyone that these critical observations aren't given pure intentions.

>>14599819
>They went to great lengths to put Marx' ideas into practice
What? Marx simply described capitalism. He didn't expound some grand utopian alternative. Read a book some time.

>>14599079
>Marx' whole thing was about material conditions being the most important aspect of society.

Which is why it's denoted as cultural marxism, as it's a fundamental change in emphasis using the same principles. Neo-Marxism is an even worse term, because it denotes it as some evolution of marxism and not as some splinter.

People don't like the term cultural marxism because /pol/ uses it and /pol/ is dumb. It's basic normalfag dissociation. It's especially strong here now that the marxist soys who were too stupid to figure out 8ch is back have flooded back into the board.

>>14599960

>>14599964
That is literal indisputable truth. Marx published the Communist Manifesto, he did not simply 'describe capitalism'

>>14599904
Only if you reduce Marxism down to materialism in itself. Marxism takes a materialist worldview for its theories, including state administration. Cultural marxism simply co-opts it. Neo-marxism prevents itself as an extension of marxism despite actually being fundamentally contradictory.

It's like trying to argue "kickboxing" is a contradiction of terms and "neoboxing" should be used instead. Cultural marxism effectively communicates it's a splinter.

>>14599969

>moving the goal post
What with this book fetish you have? Marx did expound a utopian alternative, regardless of how much time he spent describing it (as it's implied from the cretiques) Evola does the same thing in Revolt against the modern world. It's not actually about how revolting but a dissection of traditionalism with the revolt being the natural conclusion when you contrast the traditional world to the modern one.

Yes. He proposed mechanics, but the end-state was left mostly undescribred.

How did Marxists go from affirming its existence with "Cultural Marxism is a oversimplification of the application of Marxism to society" to "It's a conspiracy theory"? legit question, this seems to be a new thing.

>>14600015
Holy fuck, are you dense? Calling for a revolt against capital is not expounding a utopian alternative. For Marx, "communism" was just a label for the next stage after capitalism. The idea that the USSR "put his ideas into practice" is nonsensical.

>>14599981
>is a propaganda pamphlet
That would be literally what I called it two posts above lmao. A propaganda pamphlet is not 'describing capitalism', it's a call to arms for a state of society he wants to see evolve.

Even if we just looked at Capital you can still call that propaganda, publishing a text calling the basic economic structure of society exploitation and saying that it will progress into a state that doesn't have exploitation has extremely obvious value as propaganda. It contrasts two states of society and depicts one as more just according to the values of his time.

Imagine I write a long boring text describing how Jews control society and the white people will eventually wake up and regain their power, but I frame this is an inevitable historical development. Then I write another text explicitly calling for white people to be aware of Jewish domination and change social conditions to accelerate the white emancipation from Jews.

It would be pretty clear to you what Im doing, and it's propaganda. That's exactly what Marx did for capitalism.

>All these pseuds claiming Marx didn't posit a Utopia

>Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established, an ideal to which reality will have to adjust itself. We call communism the real movement which abolishes the present state of things. The conditions of this movement result from the premises now in existence.

In this new society, the alienation would end and humans would be free to act without being bound by the labour market. It would be a democratic society, enfranchising the entire population. In such a utopian world, there would also be little need for a state, whose goal was previously to enforce the alienation.

Utopia is living in a society without any imperfection. He was against that utopic thinking espoused by some during his time that he even critiqued, but the only thing he did was establish that capitalism would shift eventually and change from its own internal contradictions.

The stability of the current technocratic neoliberal glomohomo capitalist world order has already put Marx's materialist conception of reality resulting in proletariat takeover into great doubt. Teds Belief that capitalism and all its derivatives will collapse when the technology it's integrated itself with naturally or artificially collapses (and this next stage logically won't be communism) is far more convincing. He makes a compelling case in anti-tech revolution as to why the current order, which is based on (reasonably) short term competition in order to stay optimized will never be able to avoid the eventual tech collapse, if only due to depletion of resources. There is a damn good reason we haven't colonized space and most likely never will. The startup is too high of an investment. it's the same reason "environmentalism" itself is only advocated to the point of profitability. As if low flow toilets and hybrid cars are actually going to make an impact.

Technological society probably has like 300-500 years. Even if it somehow manages to last a few thousand years it's a blip of time in the history of the earth, and the human species, and it will destroy the whole thing. Of course it it collapses sooner rather than later something can rise from the ashes, and the sooner it happens the more comfortable life after the collapse will be.

Attributing to the western modern population at large the lack of religious moral values is absolutely fucking useless unless you contrast it with earlier times, which is usually only done with the intent to either argue some marxist historicist dialectic bullshit or an equally retarded nu-catholic "return to tradition" stormfaggotry. Both are attempting to rationalize some personalized simplified notion of an ideal man that you can hold people to, and use as a stick to beat them with because you're bitter and bored to all hell. That the general population is vapid isn't a new thing, and that there're "prophets" who're dissatisfied with this isn't either. If people with the wit and awareness to see this did something actually useful and subsequently inspiring for once, instead of being lazy dickheads parading themselves as the savior of mankind, we might see shit change.

daily reminder that "cultural marxism" was used by leftists before the far right meme.
I can sympathize with marxists that see themselves grouped with the intersectional retards but it is what it is

>to keep their ideas alive, marxists completely abandoned their ideas in favour of identity-politics which is antithetical to everything marxism argues, to keep their ideas alive

They did not abandon the core premisse of the dialectical flow of history. For a Marxist everything is about the conflict between two forces (one being an opresive owner and the other a poor slave). They only changed that from rich vs poor to gay vs heterosexual, women vs men etc. Which is easier to capitalize in the modern world since their economical theory was proven not to work so well.

>in her essay, Cultural Marxism: Nonsynchrony and Feminist Practice, Emily Hicks argues that the marriage of Marxism and feminism leads to a narrow formulation of their respective oppressions and a narrow understanding of the dynamics of society. Hicks states that a cultural Marxism is needed to reach and incorporate broader groups of people into a socialist movement : people who do not all have the same politics or the same political needs. Nor the same socialist vision. A Marxism that cannot reach more people with its theory and practice will become irrelevant. With an analysis of current political and economic trends viewed through the concept of nonsynchrony, Hicks shows why it is that despite a huge dissatisfaction with capitalism among certain sectors of the population (gays, working women, blacks) there is not necessarily a huge outpouring of support for a radical alternative. Hicks discusses why some women will make radical demands for childcare, birth control, `[and]` equal pay but will also feel a tremendous antagonism towards the women’s movement claiming forcefully that they are not « women’s libbers”. Hicks argues strategically for the need to build broad non-exclusive organizations struggling for progressive change.
