Esoteric Hitlerism. David Myatt-thought, read SIEGE, faggots. All Hail The Black Sun! Marxist theory remains caught in the materialist logic of capital, this is why we must embrace magick, antinomian satanism and occult hypertribalism, reject utopianism for apocaliptic delivery of dystopia as a political platform. We must strive to be as radical and as uncompromising, as relentless and as remorseless as humanly possible. This is why I advocate for the immediate and TOTAL takeover of all political cultural, and economic institutions by a vanguard party of dedicated revolutionaries under the bloodstained hitlerite banner of the barred cross. We must assume totalitarian control over the human mass of the population by all and any means neccessary, including but not limited to full scale political TERROR and the wholesale liquidation of all those who oppose us.

If you are a white male and interested in leftism, you have to understand leftism as a journey of coming to terms with your whiteness and all the small privileges and unconscious prejudices that come with them, a journey of unlearning towards empathy and acceptance . Debord was a product of his time, the individualism and implicit patriarchy rebellious macho posturing of the 60s new left that left so many issues unresolved. really, I acknowledge him as a poignant thinker, but I can't help but see situationism in the light of later blatantly toxic reactionary and hypermasculine movements that seek an 'exit' from society by any means necessary. The term identity politics was created by the combahee river collective, a revolutionary association of marxist black lesbians.

The spectacle is an extension of commodity fetishism so you have to analyze and understand that first before you move on to the spectacle. The spectacle however goes beyond it because it becomes rewires what you think is real as movement of images. The spectacle can only end when commodity fetishism ends. The real question is, what is the main driving force, metaphysically that drives this thing to perpetuate itself? One answer would be money, an abstraction that allows the market to calculate commodities and therefore is tied to psychological drives. Another would be the old Marxist idea of ideology masking the value of what is produced under a metaphysical reification, but that is not enough in my opinion because after the spectacle we have a re-wiring of what is real. Its not an "obfuscation" per se , but a value presented as series of experiences. The spectacle is tied to money and commodities, the Badrillardian idea of simulation as well, even though at that point it gets a life of its own beyond reality, it still is tied to completely abtract value operating in under an alien logic in comparison to the common mans needs. I don't have an answer how to escape it, because we first need to understand how commodity fetishism is so strong in the first place.These are my two cents (no pun intended).

so this 'radical' theory just serves as a rationalisation for the cynical detachement that is enabled by your privilege, the privilege based directly on the suffering and opression of your queer and PoC comrades? Or more charitably, you want to consume western 'high culture' without questioning its fundamental assumptions and actually growing up and becoming responsible for your privilege and the way you consume and interact with media?Representation is important in ways you can't even imagine, dude you grew up in a world were all the superheroes, the actors and the politicians looked pretty much like you, so you don't know what its like not feeling represented.

the way out is realising that the solution has already been achieved: tell me, in what society have social relations not been mediated by images? all social reality exists in a mediated form; immediacy, and the desire for it, belong to religion. it is straight out of the bible. "for now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known." life under modern conditions have rendered explicit what has always been the case, the gap which always has separated - complicated - human relations. there is no way out, we have only grasped conceptually what has always been true in fact.

The spectacle isn't just fiction , see >>12985571

The spectacle is a form of commodity fetishism which presents a "value" in a series of images. The images are "experienced" and rewire out brains and experience itself is then commodified in turn. The question in capitalism according to Marx has always been this "What is Valuable for Life", in a noncapitalist system you would argue that it would be a cost benefit analysis of what is needed to survive and maintain the social. In Advanced Capitalism we view reality itself, daily life that is, as series of commodified images. Baudrillard would say that is the basis of hyperrealitythat masks its own logic , in that it has no inner truth. But it all comes down as to what we believe to valuable. There is therefore a qualitative leap beyond everyday ideology and the tottalization of commodification, because ideology still operates under the assumption of a conscious subject. There is no subject in the stream of spectacle however, but depersonalizing force operating either under the logic of money or market forced.

Being a Hegelian Marxist, Debord was convinced communism represented the realisation, abolition and superssesion of all previous human religion, philosophy and culture.

Its really as messianic and as apocalyptic as it sounds.

In the past the mask of ideology at least was stories we told ourselves to make sense of our actions.The quest for immediacy isn't at stake here, its the complete absence of reality as any kind of force. To abandon the quest for the real non--alienated man is I agree foolish, but the point is that at the present state of Capitalism not even a story is needed for a man to wake up at 8 in the morning and work all day with the expectation that at the end of his work day his release will come with Netflix, internet pornography and social media.

Established Collective patterns of glances, postures, listening and repeating what was heard, limitations on the aformentioned this is what the state really is. The illiad and the odyssey, the hymns and songs, functioned as detailed tribal encyclopedias, always within oral consciusness of a preliterate population, providing unconscious patterns for behaviour. Wonder why Plato was so pissed at the poets? Really, he was a media critic and a critic of urbanism.

Past stories were not always to their benefit. Christianity in large part served as a doctrine to justify hierarchy by motioning towards a non-hierarchical beyond. Life today is not all Netflix and internet porn, although admittedly it is in large part just that. My real feeling is that his horror is in part just horror of things that are "human, all too human." What I mean is the problem of the spectacle is not so complete as he seems to suggest, and not so discontinuous with what came before.

capitalism is the universal process of dislocation that reveals the creative nothing that is Man. Everything spiritual and lofty long melted into thin air, only the very act of creating- alchemy, forgery- the continuous, eternal making something from nothing and nothing from something abides and remains.

Not capitalism. A strange world that doesn’t venerate sociopaths for hoarding the most game tokens, a world that isn’t in a race to kill each other for profit. A world that values each other, friendship building and develops confidence and charisma. Nothing will ever be perfect, but the world that stops using accumulative debt tokens and challenges unjustifiable hierarchies is going to be all kinds of content with itself

I am not denying you have agency and will, it seems if you don't bother the intromission it seems to me that you are the one denying you own agency and will through paranoid lucubrations disguised as 'theory'. Being as you are a so called privileged person I believe you have a special power to create positive social change and be an ally to those who are less privileged. with great power, comes great responsibility.

This is an impossible world you speak of. It also might not be as desirable as you think. Of course, I don't think capitalism is the be-all end-all system either.

It’s a guess at what changing our old, ancient, bad habits would do for our minds. It’s no impossible or undesirable, it’s just extremely difficult to implement.

It's only because we have a penchant for cruelty that we also have a penchant for everything higher, like love. We could change these habits, but it'll come at the cost of everything else we've obtained along the way. To me, that's undesirable...

And if you don't believe me, you just have to look inside yourself. What was the most painful moment in your life? I'm willing to bet its intensity matches the most pleasurable moment in it as well. This has been the case for myself and everyone else I've asked this question to so far. It's no coincidence that tears can switch over to laughter and vice versa very quickly, as far as our physiology is concerned.

Do you also wish to live in a poor country because wealthy ones are so undesirable? People in wealthy nations sometimes attain something like what I describe

Someone else would call you. Mad pranks would ensue. Leave me alone.

Or you would call me because you finally want to talk to me? :3

I think it’s that second option, mine. Is that what you’d do?

Almost correct, but just adding Christianity to politics doesn't work. This was the political message of Christ, he rejected all earthly power structures, which ultimately crucified him. If Christianity is to help renew us, it has to be anti-political and reject every existing power structure, as the early Christians did before they allied with the Roman state.
