Granscianism is the most recent "update" to Marxism after Leninism. It explains we can't have revolutions in developed capitalist states, and says that we need to form a proletarian counterculture to challenge the prevailing capitalist common sense (war of position), before trying to directly cease power (war of maneuver).
Marxist-Leninists (stalinists) are too dumb to understand this.
Gramsci was a leninist and we’ve had 100 years of Gramscians trying to change imperialism from within western academia and it hasn’t worked
>>2648745Because they are doing it wrong
>>2648616The problem with Gramsci is that the capitalists have been much more successful in applying his ideas than the workers. It's a matter of low-intensity operations and 5th-generation warfare mind-war bullshit. Chuds like Jack Posobiec have a better grasp of grayzone warfare than the average socialist.
Thanks to this asshole the majority of leftoid discourse is just wannabe academics (not that actual academics are much better) endlessly dissecting pop culture.
What do retards think "culture war" means and do they even realize why communists use it pejoratively? This bullshit also implicitly treats communism as something outside the proletariat that the stupid brutes need to be propagandized into.
>>2648790Information warfare is actually a thing you know? Like Uyghur bullshit and so on. And the USA has the best intelligence community and best propaganda machine of all the nation-states. Nobody outcompetes the US intelligence community, Hollywood and Madison Avenue in dirty fuckery.
Anyhow I hear Edward Bernays is good. People might also be interested in "After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred of Gays in the 90's"
>>2648804>the US spends millions on propaganda so we should waste time on it toocool bro, doesnt change proletarians are already struggling and communists only ought to generalize such struggle. not that a pb loser like you would know anyway
>>2648810and ofc its a braindead /pol/tard peddling this bullshit. go get a job
>>2648812Marx was complaining about utopian socialists who wanted financial backers for their communes you dip, not revolutionary agitprop.
Edgelord Nazi pedos aren't a pol thing, they're documented fact. "Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism: The Origins and Afterlife of James Mason’s Siege" is a good intro to the milieu.
>>2648810what an old as fuck lieutenant colonel
>>2648841That's just Michael Aquino, founder of the Temple of Set. Despite apparently being the poster boy for "Satanic Nazism" he was neither, the Temple being obviously Setian rather than explicitly Satanic (yes there's a difference) and while he definitely had a sussy wussy collection of Nazi memorabilia his personal political views were fairly normie so it's safe to say he was just a weirdo who liked the aesthetic
>>2648882He did a ritual at Wewelsburg Castle and hung out with Nazi underground people. Also helped run Iran-Contra
>Granscianism is the most recent "update" to Marxism after Leninism.
No that's Cockshottism.
>>2648829The Islamists do not have cultural hegemony. The matrix of basiji-shrine-ayatollah constitute only 30% of the population, and decreasing since these guys are all migrating to Canada
(This is also why you are starting to get anti protest Iranian "content creators" speaking English and making youtube videos, these are sons of IRGC generals who studied in foreign countries, reverse gusanos)
Fuck Gramsci. Fuck factory councils. Fuck Ordo Nuovi.
>muh culture
Same old trappings
Real mfs read Gramsci
So is there anything we can do to apply, this or no?
>>2649009Unless you have a spy network deeply embedded in the media I doubt you can do much other than call the enemy out.
Trying to convince anyone to do anything is utopianism, even if there was a mass hijacking of media that called for a general strike people wouldn't do shit if the material conditions didn't change, they'd probably strike to get their Netflix back
Any reason why the remaining of Gramsci’s prison notebooks are left untranslated?
>>2650273https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unrestricted_WarfareNo you twat. Hybrid warfare is actual theory by actual AES military. Protracted people's war of the position is crucial to the global class war.
>>2650377The reason is that Pete Buttigieg went to Harvard.
by 2100 marxist scholars will have finally caught up with early 2000s scholarly works
>>2650273This mf really believes that the ideas of the ruling class aren't the ruling ideas.
Another thread yet again inadvertently vindicating the International Communist Party
>>2650759>Buttigieg went to HarvardTo get more smarter?
>>2651618No, to become a Neoliberal stooge and not continue the life work of his father to continue translating Gramsci's works, duh.
https://leftypol.org/edu/res/8394.htmlAnyhow this is a good thread on sneaky fed bullshit.
>>2648616it's "seize power"
BTW we usually only name major updates after people who won something. Practice proves theory… what proves Gramsci correct?
>>2663372That the fascists read his work and proceeded to completely curb stomp socialism with psyops and other active measures.
>>2648616>Granscianism is the most recent "update" to Marxism after Leninismleninism isnt a thing and gramscianism definitely isnt a thing either lmao
I think a big issue is conceptualizing Marxism in terms of software with “updates” and that it’s a matter of going through the old files to figure out what’s causing the system to crash instead of trying to develop new theories and argue them using the tools we already have.
>>2668424>CPUSAtard thinks the proletarian movement depends on developing even more new theories just because (literally "publish or perish" university mentality)try not conceiving of communism as something external to the proletariat first. we definitely dont need even more moron academics trying to carve their own niche bullshit theories that have nothing to do with communism
you really have to start questioning people when shit like this gets passed around. capitalism, a most mysterious thing, that requires a new theory every year to explain it!
