Ace and Drizzy feel able to claim that the very notion of Cultural Marxism is a taboo subject (suspicious that) and an "anti-Semitic conspiracy theory".
So it should be easy for them to destroy my argument then right? Or alternatively their mate ECB will delete this in order to avoid the conversation.
The Frankfurt School perspective of critical investigation (open-ended and self-critical) is based upon Freudian, Marxist and Hegelian premises of idealist philosophy. To fill the omissions of 19th-century classical Marxism, which could not address 20th-century social problems, they applied the methods of antipositivist sociology, of psychoanalysis, and of existentialism. The School's sociologic works derived from syntheses of the thematically pertinent works of Immanuel Kant, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, and Karl Marx, of Sigmund Freud and Max Weber, and of Georg Simmel and Georg Lukács. Like Karl Marx, the Frankfurt School concerned themselves with the conditions (political, economic, societal) that allow for social change realised by way of rational social institutions. The emphasis upon the critical component of social theory derived from surpassing the ideological limitations of positivism, materialism, and determinism, by returning to the critical philosophy of Kant, and his successors in German idealism – principally the philosophy of Hegel, which emphasised dialectic and contradiction as intellectual properties inherent to the human grasp of material reality.
Lukács in 1919 In light of the First World War and the Russian Revolution of 1917, Lukács rethought his ideas. He became a committed Marxist in this period and joined the fledgling Communist Party of Hungary in 1918. As part of the government of the short-lived Hungarian Soviet Republic, Lukács was made People's Commissar for Education and Culture (he was deputy to the Commissar for Education Zsigmond Kunfi).[16] It is said by József Nádass that Lukács was giving a lecture entitled "Old Culture and New Culture" to a packed hall when the republic was proclaimed which was interrupted due to the revolution.[17] During the Hungarian Soviet Republic, Lukács was a theoretician of the Hungarian version of the red terror.[18] In an article in the Népszava, 15 April 1919, he wrote that "The possession of the power of the state is also a moment for the destruction of the oppressing classes. A moment, we have to use".[19] Lukács later became a commissar of the Fifth Division of the Hungarian Red Army, in which capacity he ordered the execution of eight of his own soldiers in Poroszlo, in May 1919, which he later admitted in an interview.[20][21][22] After the Hungarian Soviet Republic was defeated, Lukács was ordered by Kun to remain behind with Ottó Korvin, when the rest of the leadership evacuated. Lukács and Korvin's mission was to clandestinely reorganize the communist movement, but this proved to be impossible. Lukács went into hiding, with the help of photographer Olga Máté. After Korvin's capture in 1919, Lukács fled from Hungary to Vienna. He was arrested but was saved from extradition due to a group of writers including Thomas and Heinrich Mann.[23] Thomas Mann later based the character Naphta on Lukács in his novel The Magic Mountain.[24] He married his second wife, Gertrúd Bortstieber in 1919 in Vienna, a fellow member of the Hungarian Communist Party.[17][4] During his time in Vienna in the 1920s, Lukács befriended other Left Communists who were working or in exile there, including Victor Serge, Adolf Joffe and Antonio Gramsci. Around that time, Lukács began to develop Leninist ideas in the field of philosophy. His major works in this period were the essays collected in his magnum opus History and Class Consciousness (Geschichte und Klassenbewußtsein, Berlin, 1923). Although these essays display signs of what Vladimir Lenin referred to as "ultra-leftism", they provided Leninism with a substantive philosophical basis. In July 1924, Grigory Zinoviev attacked this book along with the work of Karl Korsch at the Fifth Comintern Congress.[25] In 1924, shortly after Lenin's death, Lukács published in Vienna the short study Lenin: A Study in the Unity of His Thought (Lenin: Studie über den Zusammenhang seiner Gedanken). In 1925, he published a critical review of Nikolai Bukharin's manual of historical materialism.[26] As a Hungarian exile, he remained active on the left wing of Hungarian Communist Party, and was opposed to the Moscow-backed programme of Béla Kun. His "Blum theses" of 1928 called for the overthrow of the counter-revolutionary regime of Admiral Horthy in Hungary by a strategy similar to the Popular Fronts that arose in the 1930s. He advocated a "democratic dictatorship" of the proletariat and peasantry as a transitional stage leading to the dictatorship of the proletariat. After Lukács's strategy was condemned by the Comintern, he retreated from active politics into theoretical work.
Jesus Kerouac, I know Drizzy and Ace are a bit paranoid about racism in the 21st century, but this loonery you're displaying is quite something to behold

It's not loonery, some might call it an education, a body of evidence

It’s only a matter of time until you’re posting stuff about white genocide and great replacement theory. Why the mods tolerate you smuggling anti Semitic, neo fash propaganda onto this site I have no idea.

Until they do ban him, I suggest people adopt my policy of completely ignoring his posts (this one being the only exception for obvious reasons). When his threads are filled with only his deluded replies to himself, he might eventually get the message.

A shrewd policy.
I have to say I when I saw the thread title I thought WOW! Then I saw the amount of replies and my eyes nearly popped out. I thought to myself I just have to read this thread. Then I saw all the replies......

So anyone who has a look through all that will understand that Cultural Marxism existed was put into practice, and then was adapted along the way by academics who could no longer argue for Communism but refused to give up their belief in Marxism. It is the granddaddy of Post Modernism and Political Correctness. The ideas of these people have spread like wildfire in our universities. Generations of students have been taught this crap.
Yet all an idiot like Ace can do is continually insist that it is a conspiracy theory (whilst chucking mud at the poster of course, of course! that is the only tactic of the modern left...they have ceased to make arguments FOR the views they espouse, instead preferring to shut down the other argument. Draw your own conclusions )

You're not getting a debate out of me. You know what you're doing and you're not getting the legitimacy.

You can't argue with the facts. The fact that you feel able to come on this site every day and declare me a racist, an anti-Semite, a conspiracy theorist etc. but don't feel you have to back that up with reason shows you up for what you are.
Most of those links are from Wikipedia, they don't make an argument, the source just outlines who these people were, what they did, what they wrote...in their own words some of the time. The truth is the truth is the truth.
I have not advanced a conspiracy theory, I certainly have not made any racial arguments (I would never do that, I find that way of thinking disgusting), all I have done is point out where the modern ideas of the left came from and pointed people in the direction of the sources.
Herbert Marcuse corresponded with Dutschke in 1971 to agree with this strategy, "Let me tell you this: that I regard your notion of the 'long march through the institutions' as the only effective way..."[4] In his 1972 book, Counterrevolution and Revolt, Marcuse wrote:
To extend the base of the student movement, Rudi Dutschke has proposed the strategy of the long march through the institutions: working against the established institutions while working within them, but not simply by 'boring from within', rather by 'doing the job', learning (how to program and read computers, how to teach at all levels of education, how to use the mass media, how to organize production, how to recognize and eschew planned obsolescence, how to design, et cetera), and at the same time preserving one's own consciousness in working with others. The long march includes the concerted effort to build up counter institutions. They have long been an aim of the movement, but the lack of funds was greatly responsible for their weakness and their inferior quality. They must be made competitive. This is especially important for the development of radical, "free" media. The fact that the radical Left has no equal access to the great chains of information and indoctrination is largely responsible for its isolation.
The boy must know nobody watches the crap he posts. Just like he must know nobody believes his bullshit stories. In fact people openly take the piss out of them. Yet he just can't help himself.
Not a well boy.

I shared a taxi with György Lukács once in Los Angeles.
I told him that I was a massive Star Wars fan and he said he was a massive Swans fan. We've sent each other Christmas cards ever since.
