Marxism has no reality at all in the West. Nearly all self-proclaimed Marxists are frauds who haven’t even read Marx, let alone understand him. They use the label Marxism, despite knowing nothing about it, as a pseudo-intellectual obfuscation for their liberal ideology.

§12
Without the guidance of proletarian consciousness, the movement propelling society still continues.
But it leads to an economic, political, spiritual, moral and overall social crisis. Society eats away at itself as it cannot make sense of the contradictions driving it.

The crisis of Western Marxism lies in its inability to overcome the subject/object distinction when it comes to society.
How can society both be a real (material) object, while also given the quality of subjective responsibility? Two responses emerge:

In other words, James Lindsay is a fucking moron when he blames wokeism’s metaphysical distrust in reality on Marxism.
In actual fact, the distrust in reality is the very basis of bourgeois modernity.
It can be thought as the entire premise of the Age of Enlightenment… https://t.co/5ZFAjkjDqBtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

In Marxism, the highest aim of knowledge is to give way to reality. This entails a great trust in material being - anything of importance arrived at by knowledge, is already reconciled within material reality itself.
The paradox is that this ‘giving way’ is a necessary act… https://t.co/KksFiqUF2Jtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

It was Aleksandr Dugin who accomplished the particularization of Heidegger’s concept of Dasein, thus allowing for it to be put to work in productive, even practical ways. And he does this by returning to the beginning of metaphysics according to Heidegger - in Logos.
