Soviet Marxism is a very good analysis of the Sovietism. I wish Limonov and Zakhar Prilepin would read it. However, if you are an American, read the book that Americans like. Read the one Dimensional Man and read his reactions to the hippie movement. He is popular with the Americans because he sung some dithyrambs to the hippie movement whilst complaining only that they were so anti-authoritarian they didn't read freud or schiller or marx or marcuse.
And because he was popular with the hippie movement he has been picked up the CIA backed feel-good-coup-de-état folks behind the "peace and conflict studies", doing regime change and all that jazz. The chaos in Syria and in the Ukraine included a lot of populist retardedness in the first stages exactly because Marcuse called the hippies "sublime".
Turns out he is extremely popular with what was called the man in 1968.

As for the national bolsheviks: stop watching German state television so much. Dugin and Kagarlitskiy (worlds apart both from another Russia and Limonov's NBP) are the only visible people in Russia trying hard to pimp your beloved Marcuse. Show them some gratitude! Dugin adores him so much because to Dugin he is one of the Anti-Transatlantists and therefore "Eurasians" (like the pre-Barbarossa Hitler :3) and Kagarlitskiy likes him because he is considered a "leftist" in the West.

His geopolitical analysis reminds me of my 12 year old self.
Btw if someone offered us Königsgrad back we would never take it because it's full of slavs now and therefore worthless

You do not? Then cut the shit about Prilepin and Limonov. Or about Russian thought (in this or any other century). I for one am versed in German und wenn ich über Marcuse rede kommt es nicht von Hörensagen. Es gibt gute Denker in Russland und es gibt schlechte. Manche sind sogar so schlecht wie die deutschen Freudomarxisten. Das stimmt. But if you take what little has translate due to "German Friendship" you're not getting the whole thing. Sure Beryayev is a notable thinker ("Wahrheit und Lüge des russischen Kommunismus" first printed in German in 1937. Then in English. Then again in German in 1953.) but he's not the only Russian thinker there was. Our friendship acted as a filter. You only printed the things that you wanted to read. Prilepin for example had all his books translated in German. But now that he wrote a book about the Maidan he can't get printed anymore.
>So I can communicate with a backwards nation that is sliding into chaos?

It's not some random french riot, it is the banlieu riot. You are shown arabs wrecking paris while they're singing about the "la force de tyrannie" arrising contre nous.

I know, I know. Those slavs, they do not read Adorno. Neither do the Jews. Therefore they must be sent to joycamps for denazification. You've gotta to denazify "the soil".
Nothing new. Your average "anti-German" attitude. I'm not surprised. I like how you have changed.
Or do we have two Adornofags from Frankfurt gloating how it's only the Aryans who have gotten it right?
The last one was pretending to be not a nazi. If it was you you have bewältigt your Vergangenheit at least. That's pretty nice.
Kaliningrad is a terrible name btw. You don't have a Hermann-Göring-Stadt either. It should something like, say, Putingrad.
>Also, I said Marcuse was mid-tier, Adorno and Benjamin are where it's at
Adorno would have become a nazi if not for him also being Wiesengrund. It's your average cultural pessimist using some Marxian verbiage for edginess.Nothing out of the ordinary for the Social Fascism era Germany. Why is he so popular? Or: why better than Marcuse? And why your hard-on for Benjamin? Because he is a martyr? What's the difference? Both he and M. are going on about Consumerism which is a good ideology for moralist bureaucrats during social chauvinism but nothing you could read for insight or fun.
>Also Hitler was never Eurasian, I don't get slavic Nazis, don't they know that they are a subhuman slave race that is supposed to eventually exterminated / flung into pre-civilization (according to NS)
Is that your 12 year old self talking? You're taking Dugin's concepts at face value? You don't get any slavic nazis. That's right. It's a German thing. And the swastika tattooned fascists in the Ukraine are two sides of a coin with their "liberal" supporters in Europe.

Colonized? You know what's colonization? Google Generalplan Ost. In East Germany the members of the NSDAP were deprived of their property and their positions in the universities and the SS members were put on trial. Such Russian savagery! It would have never happened in the civilized Bonn Republic.
For how many years did they resist destalinisation? And you really believe there was a Russian NSA? no. It's Western knowhow alone. And what was that with Murat Kurnaz and the supposed Snowden plane? So, who's the colony? Did Russian planes ever start from the East German soil to do terror bombardment of countries too far on the left or the right? Never happened.

Post a picture of yourself standing in front of the Reichstag with a poster saying "Thank you, based Putin, for saving our hero Edward Snowden from the cuck government of occupied Germany". It would nicely serve as proof of how you're not a cuckold yourself.

Do you have a grasp of Werner Sombart from the institute for social theory in Frankfurt? He was walking the edge: Here a Marx, there a Freud; all subversive as fuck. And easily transformed into a nazi. Who'd have thought? After him and Jung and Heidegger I do not see how such an adogmatist as Theodor Adorno would have acted otherwise. How many pureblooded Christian Germans resisted the nazis from amongst the academic philosophers? I know only of Jews and of Communists. OK, there also was a Thomas Mann and Marlene Dietrich. WTH happened to them?

>>The historical materialist cannot do without the concept of a present which is not a transition, in which time originates and has come to a standstill. For this concept defines precisely the present in which he writes history for his person. Historicism depicts the “eternal” picture of the past; the historical materialist, an experience with it, which stands alone. He leaves it to others to give themselves to the whore called “Once upon a time” in the bordello of historicism. He remains master of his powers: man enough, to explode the continuum of history.
>Yeah that's some writing on consumerism right there
Das Arkadenprojekt is what? In that snippet he is in the good company of Lukacs and Lunacharskiy rather than Marcuse and Debord. Marcuse also writes on topics which are of interest to left and psychan intellectuals. How is the one better and the other one worse?
To me the main unit of measure is edginess. There both are infinitely worse than Wilhelm Reich. Because Reich was no cuck. His edginess did not reside in dropping the bordello word (it's how we can tell it's Benjamin in your snippet talking and not Zhdanov.) but in living the bordello. This is why you will not get him in your Western Universities. He is too edgy for the West. My hero. In my system of tiers he would be on the top and below you would have Vienna Actionism and the National Bolsheviks (where have you read that Limonov is a faggot? You don't sound like someone who'd buy a book called "Fuck Off, America". At least not past the relevation of the NSA).
So: why would you place your Benjamin and your Adorno over your Marcuse? You didn't provide a reply for that.
>the anti-russian sentiment in Ukraine is nazism meme
come on buddy
Burning people alive in Odessa for being Pro-Russian and marching around with SS Runes and Nazi flags is what? Kritische Rationalität? Hemmungslose Vernunftsskepsis? I would really like hear the opinion of a Freudmarxist Neonazi Geopolitician. To you the Lemberg nazi hordes are evidently the voice of the people, our boys, democracy, fridam and the rest of it.
For now I only see one point in your tirades about Russia: "Handle so, dass die Mutti, wenn sie von deinem Handeln Kenntnis hätte, dieses Handeln billigen würde."

More like, they perverted Marxist theory and turned it into frivolous cultural criticisms.

[Anonymous No.6810278]

>>6808575
I know you read neither but why limit yourself to Karl Marx during your complaints. Say they perverted Nietzsche, Hegel, Weber, Durkheim, Freud and every other major thinker and turned it into a frivolous Adorno.

MM gave me a headache. He doesn't say anything, just drops some phrases suggestive of being somehow critical of capitalism. No wonder the Frankfurt School collapsed together with the USSR. You do not to distract all the Marxists no more.
