Take Marxist philosophy course at Uni

>professor walks in
>full beard, extremely tight button up shirt with no short underneath
>unkempt hair, literally looks homeless
>spends the entire lecture bloviating on stupid shit over and over, and how radical and different Marx's ideas were
>often snickers as he amuses himself while wanking Marx
>literally isn't funny or insightful in the slightest, but all the cucks in the class start chuckling anyway
>all those cucks are similarly unkempt, with full patchy beards, messy hair, and a stench
>the TA's themselves are "true believers" and under the spell of the allure of Marxism where it's basically infallible

holy shit guys. you HAVE to take a Marxist philosophy course at your Uni if you want a laugh. Marxism in philosophy is basically very similar to your introductory computer science course. it is a huge attractant of self important, pretentious neckbeards, except in this case they think they've found all the answers. Marxism is literally a cult for fedora tipping autists, and a class really puts a face to /leftypol/

Communism/Marxism in general is just an easy answer for losers who only want to bring others down to their level instead of uplifting themselves. Nice dubz m80.

In my class i stood up and said how many millions of people need to die to your collectivist ideals for you to stop teaching this.

-room fell silent
-Tells me that wasn't really marxism

I say thats what they all fucking said.

-fail class

i had a Polish teacher who taught a course on how the SU fucked up central and east europe, and sadly, even he had that idea, that the SU "took it in the wrong direction."

ik they are almost pathological in their belief system. Just tell them to read Solzhenitsyn

>this happened

I took a real university course on that that covered the treatment of "freedom" by plato, js mill, and marx and somehow i don't believe you.

>tfw nobody ever reads Capital, it's always manifesto

Capital is the true red pill

>-fail class
probably an idiot who spouted >>communism memes rather than engaging with the material in an intellectually honest sense. hell, if you read mises or nozick, you would have probably done way better

what part is unbelievable? these are my initial observations of the course. i didn't go further in detail, because it's just the beginning still, so all i can really offer is the environment itself.

nothing i wrote is even similar to the satire in your pic. but i can tell you with confidence the professor did spend about an hour talking about crafting a bed for a pair of shoes.

what state do you study in?

It was one of those classes, but...

It was like 95% women and they were all fucking hot. So...

not all wasted time

i've been out of school for a few years, but i went to somewhere in california

our reading material covers artistole's writings to an assortment of Marx's writing, including shit like grundrisse.

Damn I'm in California and its pretty wild.

I'm moving out of state when i graduate. No way all these people in my generation are gonna improve shit.

Philosophy former minor here ( did it for the logic shit )
Uni philosophy is a load of bullshit
The Kaballah is the best way, and I am not a shill

>you HAVE to take a Marxist philosophy course

no I don't, fuck you shill

Any arts course is a marxist philosophy course these days.

i'd find it funny then if despite your skepticism, if you meant Aristotle rather than plato, you took the exact course i am now.

though apparently it'd be a different professor.

Infallible is a pretty high standard, and I hope they don't think that the words and letters of karl marx is set in stone. Because there seems to be many other marxists that do not completely agree everything he did.

Ask him questions. As long as you're in that class or whatever philosophy class you want to switch to, be willing to "entertain" their ideas, and try to read carefully, understand, and (re)construct their arguments as best as you can. You don't need to treat it as an indoctrination class.

>Its a MATposter that doesn't realize this is Sup Forums

Fuck off blogposting here MAT

Damn leafs today have been better than usual and has actual resistance to the shills
Stay based leaf

It was Plato and the Republic that I read, which basically was like a wild ride from the idea of forms to totalitarianism.

>>take Marxist philosophy course at Uni
No you didn't you made this up. You rightfags are too triggered by left wing ideology. that and you spent either your parents money or your own on this credit. FAKE as shit.

>Spends money on a course I already know I hate. Because muh marxisms.

Fuck off.

>As long as you're in that class or whatever philosophy class you want to switch to, be willing to "entertain" their ideas, and try to read carefully, understand, and (re)construct their arguments as best as you can

i don't disagree with this. i wouldn't have enrolled in the class if i didn't want to have a deeper understanding of Marxism, even if i doubt i'd be walking away from it as a Marxist.

time will tell whether the professor agrees or not with everything of Marx, but my post is more to do with those attracted to the class in the first place, and that a Marxist class (at least in this particular anecdote) seems like the first CS course you take, where there are a shitload of neckbeards who come in thinking they've already have a master understanding of the subject.

>overhear class mates wanking each other talking about "black Marxism."

it's just amusing, as it does confirm some stereotypes about Marxists.

>it is a huge attractant of self important, pretentious neckbeards, except in this case they think they've found all the answers. Marxism is literally a cult for fedora tipping autists

Add some impotent rage from failing at capitalism their whole life, and that's a spot on description.

They think that guy is a liar lol

i'm spending your money on it tho, kek. also, i need electives.

>all communist societies have failed spectacularly with a huge toll in human suffering
>you have debate this

All of the proof is already there. There's no debate.

...

...

...

Someone with photoshop needs to name these fags

...

>Karl Marx, the inventor of communism
>Philosophy as a "DEBATE ME" class

Nice to know you are a parasite who lives off the system. Guess you are a scum sucking liberal welfare queen enjoying the benefits of socialism anyway! Thanks for affirming Socialism, comrade, welcome to the club.

np :^)

welcome to /leftypol/ comrade
>here is lyudmila, she will escort you to the blue pill, comrade. no be afraid.

Here's what you do.

Next time you're in that class, raise your hand and ask this question.

>Sir, what do you think Marx meant when he said "The spirit of private property is Judaism?" Isn't this an anti-semetic statement?

Then simply point out that Hitler acknowledged his profound debt to Karl Marx, and took great pride in his knowledge of Marxist theory.

>They were mere pamphleteers, whereas I have put into practice what these pen pushers have timidly begun. The whole of National Socialism was based on Marx - Adolf Hitler

Now add that Marxist theorists in the early 30's referred to leftist Marxism as "Jewish Marxism"

You won't redpill him, but you'll plant the seed of cognitive dissonance in his mind.

Now, this is most important, stop taking that class you filthy fucking cuck.

he already knows, user. the topic of Jews by Marx comes up at some point. "on the jews" or whatever it is, is a required reading.

>Now, this is most important, stop taking that class you filthy fucking cuck.

but if Hitler took great pride in his knowledge of Marxist theory, then so too must i.

Communism/Marxism is great because once you're in the system, everyone is a fucking loser like yourself, so you don't feel like a fucking loser!

With capitalisim other shit, other people rise hard, making you both look and feel like a loser and you know it.


I'm yet to see a ripped/fit modern day commie.

The guy who taught my Sociology Of Work class looked like Jim from The Office.

You think somebody would this? Just go on the internet and lie?

I never seen a Marxist philosophy class at my uni, and I went to a csu uni

So it's like Phrenology and has been completely discredited as retarded pseudoscience.

Capital is the single most boring book ever written. I believe that 99% of the people who claim to have read it didn't actually finish it.

Marx is cool, man. I don't approve his communist ideals or any other ideological shit but his understanding of capitalism is good

>There's no debate.

how to be an edgelord and fail at university

is being against academic debate really the hill you want to die on?

fuck me, please never study law, i can't imagine you in a class about murder saying "WHY ARE WE EVEN TALKING ABOUT THIS? MURDER IS OBVIOUSLY BAD"

Did you bring up dragon-slaying?
