How do leftists cope with the fact that everything that critical theorists or whatever came up with was already thought up first by some random french counter-revolutionary, conservative revolutionary chud in germany, or an italian fascist?

they open up a textbook and read about ww2

They pretend it's all made by progressive leftists so they don't even cope in the first place. And if you try to argue against, they'll just swear at you and claim they won the argument.

You wrongly presuppose that they care about theory and about history.

Most of them do not cope and state it like it is -- yeah, this "math is a relative scoial construct thing" I defend in this monograph was first proposed by Oswald Spengler.
So what? Only full on retards believe in intellectual american puritanism -- Kant and Hegel are le bad because Marx worked with their ideas.

How do chuds cope with being basically Foucaldians? It's you that complain about language being used as a weapon and biopolitics.

I'm not wrong in the slightest. It's an empty signifier and the fact that nobody can agree what exactly it means and that it changes over time just proves it. Use better language.

In the US context, a person who believes that reality is defined by weighted consensus based on clout, and who operates in a political strategy of high and low, centre and periphery vs middle. It's also just people who rely on the university. You could also say that it's people whose spirituality is defined by transgressive acts (war crimes, sexual violence, trying to profane their ancestors' religions).

Yes, it was. You're a delusional retard and you're seething about the meme because it's literally about you.

Is language being used as a weapon? Also, biopolitics is made up nonsense. Foucault onky chose to see power structures in a very specific way and outside of this lens it is worthless.
Also, how do you vope with the fact that critical theory is a woefully unoriginal fiels,
