leftists claim to want to end capitalism, but they are incapable of forcing the soci-economic developments that would end markets and commodity production, so instead they latch into and subvert the state, academia, and media of their countries (when conditions are not right for revolution, when they are, they turn to violence)

Honestly, I don't get the connection. It's only kind of relatable as a Narnia story if you grew up in England and wanted to hang out with elves as a child, or something like this. I don't see how a non-British person could relate to anything going on in the story at all.

Anyway, it was an over hyped and largely boring story. The original graphic novel where Bilbo beats up Goebbels and stabs the spider is more fun than the endless fucking horse-riding. I did like the Normal Voice Orc parodies though.

It's easy, kids. Stop thinking in false terms of Left and Right, it's obviously a divisive cause of impediment and non-resolution.

Not to mention the questionable legality of having a national government split in the chamber along arbitrary lines, when neither resemble the presumed (not even professed) ideological stance of Left or Right - which changes from one country to the next about what a Left or a Right even is.

Jesus.

I think you'll find 'Leftism' - or what you describe as Leftism - was nationalist and working class in every instance (inc. the later supporters of marxism). The 'merchant class' is as ill-defined in this context; presumably you mean loansharks and Jews and not the Venetian or Hansa Republic models. These both, in effect, served the monarchs. Whereas loansharking was handled by the Church, the first prisons in england for instance were owned by the Church and built for those who owed them money - both transnational trade and the churches were, of course, not concerned for the national interest primarily, and so did not care for the people.

But other than this shuffling around of names and jobs, paradoxically, the 'monarchy' would be far more in favor 'of' the people through being the only party in whose interest it was to develop the nation (new production) and thus make the people prosperous (new work, cheap surplus of food and goods). Trade benefits from this but it benefits anyway whether a nation is dirt poor or not, until the coin becomes worthless. The non-aligned middle-men.

Financiers, on the other hand, can come either from production or trade; amassing coins and charging to secure a person to take a loan from someone else. This is the worst problem of all of them and it tends more to be 'Right' than 'Left' - in those stupid terms - as a King or a Production Owner (Manor Lord w/ aricultural estates) can just as easily fall into a debt trap and have his land and his dependents (the people) ruined as consequence. But the need for borrowing money (national debts, inherited unpayable massive debts) and the value of the money can be shown to be tied to the shortage of goods rather than the surplus of goods; e.g. if bread is everywhere and being given away due to everyones hunger needs being met by solid production, then nobody can profit from selling bread. Likewise a coal mine is only prosperous when the coal is in dire short supply; when poverty in the nation exists, so both finance and production, can fall into the same trap of self-enrichment at the expense of the nation.


Long story short: left vs. right is completely meaningless and constitutes a non-reality where you're not examining how anything operates in that "material" sense. To that end it's very useful to confuse these matters.

>"in the real world"

It's more accurate to describe the phenomenon of the 'stock market corporation' as being a stateless dukedom which has been allowed to monopolize production at the expense of national production. The only cross-overs of this into the left/right dichotomy are that nominally 'liberal' utterances serve to deflect people away from the companys role and aim of outsourcing labor (identical colonialism; slave labor overseas at the expense of jobs in production at home) by proclaiming nice sounding sentiments like "open borders, sunny valleys, rainbow people" as merely PR narratives. There's nothing Left or Right about it in that the nation; its government and its citizenry, are greatly impoverished by this except that a very bad government is able to scum money to pay itself from the scenario whereby basic goods that would otherwise be produced locally but are instead produced overseas and shipped back home at great expense can only then be taxed through Tariff which go straight to the government - Tariffs being the primary method originally and up until the late 1800's for governments to make any money, before things like income tax and all the other taxes were invented.


The Tariff originated in North Africa originally, not as a means of making money but as a means of stifling trade into North Africa from the Southern European merchant houses who were enriching themselves by off-loading crap into the markets of Tunis, Tripolitana, Algiers,etc.

A lot of this confusion is because of gross
mischaracterizations of bourgeois culture. Leftists, especially the early-mid 20th century sort, were hellbent on proving that bourgeois culture was inherently conservative, repressive, exclusionary etc. but they were just wrong about that. Now that the bourgeoisie has the technology to become conscious of itself as a global class, it has dumped conservatism and nationalism (useful tools for rallying support against leftists) and turned into gay open borders capitalism. Many on the far right of the past knew that the bourgeoisie was only
on their side due to historical circumstance or hope of profit. Now the mask is off and the bourgeoisie reveals its true face, which is turning the right against capitalism

Yeah I agree with this. It was a case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater to think that predatory slavery and mismanagement of production was how things were "supposed to be", that the Kings set it up that way.

but..... this?
>the bourgeoisie reveals its true face, which is turning the right against capitalism
The 'bourgeoisie' 'is' the capitalism; in that they neither produce anything they are not stewards or ... producers... and that they exist on a mountain of debt that their actions are predicated upon trying to pay off little by little, lending themselves as sad helpers to the financial scammers - orare the financial scammers themselves. That's inherent in the word bourgeois and burgher, isn't it?

i.e. not the person who does anything with the land, but the person who purchased the land for the sole purpose of collecting rents.

Again, that's why the Left vs. Right doesn't make any sense at all when looking at the causes and effects of the problems.

It maks more sense the way I said it; it's not "liberalism" that comes out when these people do their virtue signalling and platitudes, it's merely PR to present their colonial model out-sourcing to slave labor and their rent collection (at the expense of production, mind you) as being 'nice' - OR you could say it's their own conscious guilt of their way of life; their actual deeds, which has them jump up and proclaim to be anti-colonial before anybody even connected them 'to' colonial methods.


I'll make a prediction that nothing is going to change w/re: outsourcing of work and importing of goods (and subsequent pollution, fuel wastage), as there's no means to collect massive taxes by the government without the Tariff model which operates entirely upon the imports. Also they would be terribly afraid of worker rights coming back if production moved back to the West in any large way. And it would be considered to be greatly harmful to the financial system of debased currency (inflation; scarcity of goods) if surplus in production were accomplished, as it easily might be.

The 'capitalist' lot, in their one-room apartments, living on debt, have no real interest in changing these things.

it wont because like any amerifat you believe history started in 1945. The reality is that this liberal elite has been in charge since 1649 and their Commonwealth, and their mores have not changed one bit since then.

-it is the bourgeois revolutionaries who created classical liberalism, in order to promote a society based on commerce and atheism by killing kings and priests
-it is the bourgeois revolutionaries who created new liberalism, in order to promote a society based on commerce and atheism by killing kings and priests

isnt it weird normies cant see the same people created the two political poles that normies fight for?

And guess what:classical liberalism started 3 CENTURIES AGO. NOT DECADES, FUCKING CENTURIES.
democratic republics were build by the bourgeois revolutionaries precisely to have a confluence between merchants (in finance and entertainment) and bureaucrats, ie they are both members of the bourgeois caste.
the dichotomy classical-new liberalism is completely fake in the first place. historically,
-rightists= monarchists
-leftists = republicans
guess what happens to the right when there is no more king because the bourgeois killed him. the answer is that the right becomes the left and there is only the choice between bourgeois and bourgeois lol and the bourgeois revolution is achieved whose only goal was dodging monarchist taxes........hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I think that was the sticking point,
I mentioned that really when looking at each strata within the old european societies it was only the Monarchy (and the Lords; on behalf of the working people) who had any direct interest in developing their nation; building canals and rails and setting up land for agricultural production, mining and so on. In a way, if we really want to keep using Left/Right dichotomies, the hereditary landowner, due to his own interest in long-term secure prosperity and happy workers who aren't rioting under mismanagement and poverty, is the closest to "Left Wing: For the People" by contrast to anybody else. This is a complete paradox of the Marxist position where the 'King' is conflated with the stratas below him, as if every evil or stupid thing the loanshark does is dictated to him to do by the King. It's just a conflation of its own time, when the Monarchies were presented as being in complete control.

One only needs to look at the problems George III had in trying to remedy the damage done by the companies in his day to realize that the Monarch wasn't in 'complete control' of anything as far back as the 1700's.


My point was that the L/R terms are useless as using them doesn't go anywhere near the actual causes of the effects that are complained about or which motivate the interest of a person into the subject. When the reality of the situation is put through the L/R sausage machine it just mangles it all up into vague unrelated ideological positions; as if this is how people actually operate.

Also,
Read Stalin vs.HG Wells on the subject of "capitalism as anarchism" as to the effects of out-of-control business; facebook and twitter policy violating the 1st Amendment of their home state (free speech) and 'the government' being powerless to stop it is a prime example of anarchy; if material devastation and rampant currency debasement isn't more obvious.

The point is that the "right" should realize that conservatism has lost every single battle against the left, with no exception, to the point that nowadays you are seen as far right for having the same beliefs of a moderate leftist from 30 years ago, so maybe it's time for the right to go back to our antidemocratic roots.

Of course they would; in the West this is a by far majority population so 'any' efforts to coerce the public would be directed against that majority. This is like saying the North Korean propaganda is explicitly anti North Korean - kinda maybe, but it's because that's the majority demographic that every hostile government (or media) is going to be targeting them.

>But even if they were only doing it for PR, which again is unlikely, these kind of stunts are only sympathetic to self described leftists,
Well it's a dead simple thing I described; if a person is guilty of using slave labor and on't want to stop using it, for instance, then the first thing out of their mouth will be about how they don't use slave labor - how the slave labor is 'actually' not slave labor at all but something very good and moral to help the third world by moving jobs there.

Any critique can be recast as irrational racism to make the critique seem unpleasant and the true cause of the effect of the complainant is blanked out; e.g. the people are angry at losing their jobs to cheap labor or actual slave labor, their complaints are framed as "hating foreign people for having a different skin tone", the actual cause (economic job loss) of the effect (the reason why people are angry) is just ignored.

Also the Tariff thing I mentioned is, in my opinion,he reason the governments got sold on doing things this way; if a state is self-sufficient and doesn't need to rely on importing its food or clothes or goods from overseas then the central government can't make trillions from taxing the incoming international imports.

Why shouldn't I just shrug and say "they're liberals/leftists, as they claim to be," because they're not. It's a thin veneer of fake liberalism which we see in our countries, whilst overseas in many cases the work is going on under extremely brutal conditions with no democracy to speak of; with the American company there on the ground.

Obviously, then this is true: "Liberal talking-points as PR"


> Statistically even most of the "I am not a liberal, I am real leftist" Berniebros ended up voting for Biden
Yeah this is true. Still, the politics is an obvious scam; nobody elected into any office is about to pass legislation against outsourcing on that scale, I don't think very much of the 'leftists' anyway because they don't make these arguments at all and focus on nonsense instead,which is hilariously stupid to the observer and is probably designed to be so that people don't take criticism of "colonialism" or "oppression" seriously.

But whether there's any consciousness of all of that going on in their heads I don't know. I can tell you what they're going to do and the main reason why they're going to do it, I don't know or care to know whatever Tolkeinesque escapist fantasy is going on in their heads as they do it - you know, I mean the shit they tell themselves to drag themselves out of bed in the morning.

you mean Nationalized Production, you mean? That'd be .. Nationalized Production. Like most things were in our countries; well, my country anyway.

The way I look at it is that we pay our taxes to the biggest and only legit corporation and we're able to get onto the board of directors; this is The Government and that is what The Government is, it's why we pay taxes in the first place.

Arguments about socialism and communism aside, the effective and only real proven-true way of "workers owning production" is basic Civic Nationalism; examples of this are public buses, public trains, public fire, police, emergency services, hospitals, etc. With the tax payer as the shareholder.

Even the mega projects of the last century only came about in America when The Government understood what its job was, Roosevelts government, and build all the interstate roads. It's been a long dull and painful walking back of government; selling out public property to private companies, something which they had no right to do.

But tell this to a Marxist and they'll laugh and demand utopia and ignore the great good things that the government model was actually capable of doing, with an informed and intelligent electorate guiding it.

What is the current excuse for the profligacy in management and revenue intakes that has America being the highest taxed and still the only first world nation on the planet to have not managed to provide free (or even partly subsidized) healthcare? Obviously the money is coming into the government in record amounts but the what is spent on hospitals everywhere doesn't seem to be making its way back into the society. Again: this being the point of taxes to pay for things like this.

And also what 'good' argument is there for a for-profit healthcare system if the financial incentive can be understood implicitly to 'not' speedily treat and discharge a patient?

>ultimately the means of production should belong directly to the workers.
The citizen is the worker; so that part of the equation was/is already fulfilled.

Noticeably this did 'not' exist when Marx was writing, but it later did - and still does exist (in most parts of the world). So the Marxist complaint on these grounds is redundant.

If anything, 'this' democratic aspect of operations in the workplace is what the privatization is set against: the parachuting in soppy graduates who mismanage the company and make services worse and costs increase; or the replacement of long-term competent employees with a revolving door of clueless temps is the way to make sure that workers rights on that level can't begin to take shape.

I mean, now that I think about it, the gig economy we're starting to get over here is exactly the framework of operations (bare minimum work being done) that occurs when the National is replaced with the Private; one has a framework of competent production as being subsidized it isn't eagerly seeking to cut services to increase profits, and the other has a framework driven entirely by profit until it collapses.

Oh sure, but everywhere else has been able to afford this. England from Day 1 of the NHS in the 1950's had opened its doors and provided free dental and everything else to the citizens of every commonwealth nation. It's an expense, but the taxes more than covered it.

I think there's a big misunderstanding of what 'tax' even is; it's not a tribute that you pay to a mob boss to stop him burning your house down, it's more like a community bank. A tax for this, this and this. If a country is raking in massive taxes (on purchases even), which everywhere is since the 1900's when a hundred new taxes came into being, and if that money is not going back into the society then you're looking at the financial crime called Embezzlement:

That wasn't an accident. The period you're describing was when communism was perceived as a serious threat both globally and domestically. That doesn't mean Roosevelt's government was "communist" but they figured they had to take some of the steam out of it and also win control over the labor movement, in which communists were quite strong and where labor strikes were happening all the time, and basically create a deal between labor and capital to balance out the extreme income and wealth inequality of the previous period. (And most of the good books about the history of this period were written by Marxists or at least historians sympathetic to it.)

Yes, exactly, they understood it and they were doing the correct thing!

This dynamic of noticing a problem and remedying it doesn't suddenly stop; if a government gets it right the result is a good society, that's why the rolling back of these things makes no fucking sense - as the causes of the bad effects will come back into being as soon as the remedy of those causes is taken away.

Most people, I mean, don't want to spend their evenings in a union hall arguing about things or rioting in the streets; not by choice, but they 'will' if they're pushed into a corner by bad management. Resolving bad management, then, is the solution to a rioting society, then by proxy you've got a nice and happy society. Even if your the most slippery bad boss in the world it's ultimately in your own interest to be the very very considerate and kind boss, if you want to stay in charge. Only morons in charge of things don't understand this.

uh anyway, I'm being a realist about this.

The problem anyone trying to organize labor faces today in a country like the U.S. is that the biggest sector of low-wage employment is in services in both urban and rural areas. There are more Arby's employees than coal miners nowadays and these jobs are disproportionately comprised of women and non-white people relative to the population as a whole, so the idea that "the working class" is a cohesive and white nationalist / socially conservative thing doesn't reflect material reality. It's very diverse in all kinds of ways.

White nationalists reacts to the WEF saying "you will own nothing and be happy" because that's basically the monopoly (finance) capitalists telling you that you're about to be proletarianized. Because that's what a proletarian is: someone who owns nothing other than their labor power, are dependent on their employers and indebted to rentiers and landlords, and are expected to be happy and to do the wagie-in-a-cagie dance. Much like a slave. But that was the condition of the black slaves who owned nothing and were expected to act like they enjoyed it and to dance for their white masters.

And if you were white, that wasn't you. You were born free. You're an independent proprietor! (Or planning to be.) I own my own business! But overall it seems that these people need to be re-proletarianized to make up for a long-term (decades long) secular downward trend in the rate of profit that can be even observed in IMF reports if you read them closely. And the middle-class white reactionary base for that doesn't want that to happen, so they want some messiah like Trump to save them. "Save us, Trump!" But he's a false prophet, and I think their kids are basically doomed to wind up in food service and Amazon warehouses instead of becoming astronauts or race car drivers or bikini judges. Because that's necessary to continue wringing enough profits to kick the can down the road a little further so the fat cats can continue being fat cats.

But for all practical purposes, what bonds people together on that basis is primarily material interest, not ideology. That's true for the fat cats, and they realize it. Everybody else has a hard time realizing it. A communist friend of mine who organizes in his union tells me the other guy who is most gung-ho about it has 1776 tattoos and wears shirts like that and this is in the conservative South. So it's true for the working class too.

The issue is that the forces formerly aligned with capitalists are realizing that they are now being thrown out with the bathwater as capitalism morphs into globalism. People like nationalists, the religious, racists etc. are waking up to the fact that their alliance with bourgeoisie was only one of historical convenience rather than necessary association. It isn't entirely fair to say that we were hoodwinked entirely due to our own stupidity; Leftists have written volumes on how capitalist culture is inherently racist, sexist, repressive blah blah blah. All that made us think that capitalists were our friends too. This is why I will keep blabbering about how the great decoupling of conservatism from market economics is inevitable because now they don't even put on the pretense of caring about our culture. For an extreme example, some black lefty in the 1800s (du bois or booker t maybe?) said that Communism would fail in America because whites were compensated for their loyalty to Capitalism by the Capitalists upholding white supremacy. Now rich liberals laugh about people complaining that their jerbs were taken or that there are minorities and gays in advertisements.

I suppose a Marxist will just see this as an attempt to reverse conditions back to a feudal or industrial state for their aesthetic value and oppose it on those grounds, but there's an unbridgeable gulf between our basic premises so we were never going to be friends anyways. We are making an attempt to poach people on the left though, and to retool their critiques of liberalism for our own use.

>it's not "liberalism" that comes out when these people do their virtue signalling and platitudes, it's merely PR to present their colonial model out-sourcing to slave labor and their rent collection (at the expense of production, mind you) as being 'nice' - OR you could say it's their own conscious guilt of their way of life; their actual deeds, which has them jump up and proclaim to be anti-colonial before anybody even connected them 'to' colonial methods.
I think you're painting these people unfairly or just defending their stated values. Many of them really do believe that the market, in their hands, can only be a source for progress and goodness. Surely you've had liberals flood you with their graphs of GDP growth, declining death rates, declining religiosity, increasing participation of women in the labor force, declining poverty, declining hunger and so on and so forth. These people aren't cynical neo-imperialists, by all accounts they're true believers that "human freedom" is best realized in the economic sphere through the market. When they think Communism they think gulag, anachronism, no free speech, repression, Vladimir Nabokov in exile etc. There's a growing trend of rehabilitating Capitalism on the left by recognizing its role in emancipating minorities, women, stopping wars through free trade and such anyways

Leftism IS when the merchant class kicks out the knights and the king. Left and right comes literally (literally, as in, it is written down), from where you sat at the parliament, to the left or to the right of the monarch. Leftists wanted cash to be your only God, right wingers wanted an order with a bit more rules than just cash.

This brings me to the [current year]. I want to argue that corporations are communism, and also extremely leftist. Listen, you can own means of production (corporations) by simply buying them on the stock exchanges. This is literally the system. These corporations are collectively owned and centrally planned monopolies. This is a definition of leftist economy. Collectively owned, centrally planned monopolies. Well this is what modern corporations are. Our """capitalist"""" corporations exist thanks to government contracts and tax subsidies, when the fuck did you buy something from facebook or google or any of these things that could be comfortably called 'the people's/national bureau/department of [...]'?

Right wing market economy is when you do not have big business and corporations. Big business and corporations can only exist thanks to regulations, taxes (and subsidies, govt contracts), red tape, licences, fees, and other mechanisms that exclude YOU (yes you, you reading this) while allowing them to monopolize both supply and demand.
These corporations arent a thing because they are good or efficient or competitive, they are a thing because they are government backed, government enabled, government departments. CORPORATIONS ARE THE GOVERNMENT!
We already live in collectively owned government hypermonopoly. Our economy is soviet as all fucking hell.

Their original plan was to hijack our government to control our economy, like the did in the soviet union, but since that didn't work, they did the opposite instead and hijacked our economy to control our government. The end result is the same.

In my country we don't have many jews, so they don't own the media, and the progressive crowd just lost last elections in a historical trashing. Even criminals in jail voted against them. It made me realize Moldbug is wrong about the jews. They truly are the problem in America. He's right that academics and journalists will instinctively push for wokeness, because in my country they do it too, but that's not enough for the cathedral to become powerful. They are harmless if they don't have the jews buying the media for them to spread their message. Journalists can be as woke as they want on twitter, but it's meaningless if they have to bite their tongue on tv. Americans laugh at Fox News, but ironically it's the only news channel that works as it should, for profit.

>The issue is that the forces formerly aligned with capitalists are realizing that they are now being thrown out (in favor of globalism)
Again, the problem with this take is that you presume there is some class or cabal running everything; it's just anarchy; a supreme absence of oversight, the constant failure in every endeavor and grossly stupid policies are the more obvious giveaways.

> the forces formerly aligned with capitalists
what? who is this? 'capitalism' isn't some historical 'thing', it's relatively recent, the case is easily made of how it works 'against' prosperity and production (value of goods increase in scarcity; no incentive to produce, monetary debasement and inflation due to worthless stock and property being valued at trillions, etc.) big mess.

More likely it's the consequence of several generations being very stupid and refusing to or being unable to undo the mistakes done by the lot before them - more likely this than to make out that every fuck-up was "by design", as if the inept retards who scammed their way into office are doing some kind of 'genius' thing.

With the Roosevelt example earlier, one single generation built the America that's inherited today, and the subsequent generations are cognitively and culturally incapable of even maintaining the power lines or the roads through pure stupidity.

>Many of them really do believe that the market, in their hands, can only be a source for progress and goodness.
It reminds me of religious apologetics; they do not know how the food reaches the table, they are not intelligent, so whatever ideology goes into their heads fills the gap.

I've thought for a long time that people like that could be put into a box and told that pulling a lever will make them popular or save the world, and they'll just stay there doing it forever. There's no connection to reality with that type of person, is what I'm getting at. It's disconnection from the reality on the ground to such a degree that their opinions or roles in anything (these supposedly important people) can be completely ignored, I think. It's the echo chamber problem; they're responding to nonsense.

>e true believers that "human freedom" is best realized in the economic sphere through the market.
No, this is revealed as their own lies or expressions of guilt by simply looking at their domestic and foreign policies.

Although the 'neo-liberal' model; outsourcing all production overseas to create dependency, only really came about during the Clinton administration. I'm sure people prior to that point would have considered doing (this stuff) to be completely and obviously predictable in the consequence; the results would destroy the home economy the moment the production was shipped overseas.

This. I´ve bought both V for Vendetta and Watchmen in hardcover. Read Vendetta a couple of day ago and currently about halfway through Watchmen. I can´t get rid of the feeling that these are trying to tell us something about our own timeline. Vendetta is obviously about post-war England and Watchmen about post-war America. But it is like a puzzle one must solve. There are references to nazis and the holocaust in both works, as well as THE BOMB. Both depicts the anglosphere as totalitarian but these are, according to our current "lore" the bastions of freedom. I recall Lynch also have this post-war america social analasys including THE BOMB. My thesis so far is that:
1. Everything we´re told happened did happen but propaganda puts us in a good light and nazis/commies in a bad light even though all three are just as morally bankrupt as the other.
2. The H-bomb isn´t real and is used as a scare by global elites to frighten the public. The plebs. This is also one of the way one can analyze Twin Peaks.
3. The holocaust isnt real and is pure propaganda, used to support the current regimes.

Both two and three might be what is represented in watchmen as "The big lie" i.e. the good lie i.e. Ozymandias plan come to fruition.
A fourth schizotake I also have but is more reluctant to personally accept is that the nazis actually won the war and we all live in a complete fake social enviroment where all public high ups (putin, presidents etc) are all secret nazi puppets and we are currently in the weimar era of the nazi global rebirth and creation of fourth reich where they introduce extreme lib shit like all the trans stuff and forced migrations to trigger a responce from the public like that in weimar germany. But that is the schizotake. I personally find the other three analyzes more believable.

Right vs left wing are vacuous terms people just project whatever they dislike into the category they don't identify with.
Any single characteristic you propose as essentially "left" or "right"can be disproven with countless historical examples.
The two are relative terms measured in comparison to eachother. At best you can say left means more open to change, and right less so. Yet even that is questionable, since fascism widely seen as a right wing movement also was connected to the futurist movement.
Now onto your question, as another here has pointed out communism poses less of an immediate threat since the dissolution of the USSR. With the end of the cold war communism became toothless. There are real communists in the U.S but they are few and far between. Mostly concentrated in academia, online spaces, and among the young. The only politicians at all sympathetic to it are soc dems like Bernie Sanders and Ocasio Cortez both of which are relatively moderate.
Undoubtedly the left wing bias of Hollywood and much of the media does play a part. Yet if we look back to the cold war, left wing authors were similarly subject to censorship. Authors that were suspected of having communist sympathies were black listed.

Leftists are often economically on the right as well. One of the major splits in the E Michael Jones/ Vaush debate (and the second debate EMJ had on the same channel with a young leftist woman) was over Vaush defending the practice of student loans.

I genuinely can't think of a single breadtuber who talks about Marxism outside of idle namedropping. It's all BLM and transgenderism, which are movements heavily backed by wealthy oligarchs.

One thing that is absolutely detestable to both sides of America's system is addressing wealth inequality, because regardless of right/ left the single thing both sides can agree on is that America should be run like a Wal-Mart. And to give the left its due, trannies have been staple employees and commissars of the Wal-Mart shopping floor, along with faithful customers.

Any other connection to "Marx" is incidental. He's to political philosophy what Dostoevsky is to literature-- some kind of deep "proof" that you have an intellect if you can even vaguely draw a line to him, whether that line is real or not.

Almost no one these days actually addresses the fact that the Pareto Law takes over every free market. The more capital you have, the higher return you get, which means large holders of capital have run away growth while those with less capital struggle to accumulate any. For me, this is THE central economic problem. Marx's best observations were basically stolen from Adam Smith (wages tend to fall to bare subsistence, business owners deceive and oppress the public, monopoly is the goal of business so they can artificially raise profit margins, etc). The meaningful left is those who advocate for ways to offset this tyranny of the market, the traditional means being strong union support and strong laws which ensure profits are taxed and turned back to the benefit of the citizenry as a whole.

It 'has' ... but it's taken down lost everything with it, w/re: publishing, film, videogaming, arts grants, theatre (in the west anyway) - as well as existing with heavy censorship on heavily policed online comments (all illegal) ... so it may as well not mean anything to even say that, "the left has lost the culture war" because they're not going anywhere ...only that all forms of media are trash, due to it, and a lot of the public focus is directed against the contrived talking-points put out by that media as if they're rebelling against it; all of which is just nonsense or the invention of nonsense subjects to pseudo-criminalize people down the road for discussing the nonsense subjects. Bait, I mean, for the censors to use online against the public; which radicalizes them in turn when they're censored over it.

I mean: the fake-left / neo-lib narrative is completely gone, sure, but there's nothing else taking its place... if anything it can be shown that the narrative is lingering on in so much as people who think they're opposing it are buying into it by proxy;

It's like (or actually is) "staged killing fields" in fortress architecture; when the outer wall is gone and the enemy is pouring in, they're channeled into those "killing fields" where the 'defenders' (censors, mostly) have the easiest shots to take them out as they advance to the inner wall.

Though even in that sense the fact that the original sense has been completely displaced and has half or all the talking heads visible in the public obsessed with racism/anti-racism like some religious cult is a sign more of traditional totalitarianism moreso than whatever superficial ideology either side talks about.

It's odd to me that more people don't seem to connect this 'informant/virtue-signalling' culture to it real historical basis in religious sectarianism (in that the arguments aren't reflective of reality) ... but then ironically it's the 'rightist' who troll the hardest when this connection is made, due to loving their idea of religion so much that they can't understand how every bad aspect 'of' religion still exists all around them.

witch-burning / lynchmobbing of yeterday w/ SJW hate mobs online and press smear campaigns today, etc. these kind of obvious cultural constants that haven't vanished.

or the mentality which drives the evil action, more accurately.

Perhaps even the case is right there to be made that if a government policy is bad and if the media is employed for damage control to "protect the government" then scapegoats have to be invented to deflect the wrath of the public; pulpits blaming jews or witches for centuries, press pulpits blaming blacks yesterday or whites today, etc. deflection from true cause of complaint.
