I think all there is is pop left and larping leftists these days. If you read marxist literature and then listen to the people who claim to be the real marxists, you just get a very strong feeling they are roleplaying and it isn't genuine at all. but if you have browsed this board you should know to read all the big marxists names

I'm reading Capital. About 180 pages in. It's good so far. What Karl should I go to after this? I'm interested in him talking about philosophy so I was thinking German Ideology but open to anon's guidance.

How do we reunite economic analysis with thymiotic-revolutionary pathos once agains bros? How do we overcome emasculating climate of todays left with its multitude of victimizing positions?

I actually lift and read marxism, but we also need collective mobilization. Lifting today mostly works as an individualistic coping

It seems like the current fetishization of victimhood goes along with victimhood having social credit. Since shitting on victims isn't the way, I don't really know what can be done about that other than demonstrating a possible vitalist-marxist synthesis in action, which, I would hope, would be far more seductive than victim-marxist synthesis because it would actually have more power leverage in itself. Who wants to be weak? If gym bros are associated with totalitarian thought, that is because the gym is territory that leftists have, for whatever reason, ignored or just ceded. I dont get why.

You know you don't have to do either, right? You could just treat them like human beings in stead of children that you have to cater to. You could just say "Well that sucks, Man" without giving them special privileges that they then use for personal gain and to abuse other people.

Victims have social currency right now beyond my own involvement. It's not "my" decision to make it that way. But I thank you for assuming I'm in a position of immense power over these social moments, it's quite flattering

[Anonymous No.15816648]

I think his point is that current socio-political system rewards victimization. Reactivity and passive affects are of use to the system, because it redirects anger from it and preserves status quo. I think vitalistic-marxism should strive to reevaluate current morality.

Prussian socialism, a highly militaristic and meritocratic form of "socialism" (corporatism) conceived by Spengler. He accused Marxism of following the British tradition in which the poor envy the rich, and claimed that Marxism sought to train the proletariat to "expropriate the expropriator", the capitalist, so that the proletariat could live a life of leisure on this expropriation, concluding that "Marxism is the capitalism of the working class" and not true socialism.
"Socialism means ability, not desire. Not the quality of intentions but the quality of accomplishments is decisive. I turn to our youth. I call upon all who have marrow in their bones and blood in their veins. Train yourselves! Become men!"

Communism has nothing to do with the left.

[Anonymous No.15817107]

>>15816972
Marx criticized communism based on envy:
>"Universal envy constituting itself as a power is the hidden form in which greed reasserts itself and satisfies itself, but in another way. The thoughts of every piece of private property as such are at least turned against richer private property in the form of envy and the desire to level everything down;" (between poverty and wealth) "hence these feelings in fact constitute the essence of competition." (wherein the privatist society is founded) "The crude communist is merely the culmination of this envy and desire to level down on the basis of a preconceived minimum" (in the existing social distribution).

The proletariat won't live a life of leisure because the need for labour doesn't disappear with the demise of capitalism. Just the social form of this labour changes.

Also this spengler retard sound like he doesn't even know what capitalism is.
