I'm trying to collect all the best Cultural Marxism quotes from Critical Theorists and their writings to make propaganda. Leftypol claims that the Frankfurt School was harmless, and everything Sup Forums thinks about them is just schizo "conspiracy theory". Let's prove them wrong: look through these works of Frankfurt School thinkers, and post the best (or worst) quotes you can find:
The best/worst sounding ones will be made into propaganda to annoy leftypol illiterates with. Remember THIS IS A DIGGING THREAD. We are looking for damaging or sinister quotes. Ignore leftypol shills that slide the thread, and keep us bumped!
Also look for quotes from prison notebooks by Gramsci, he says some pretty weird stuff in there:
>Ideas and opinions are not spontaneously "born" in each individual brain: they have had a centre of formation, or irradiation, of dissemination, of persuasion-a group of men, or a single individual even, which has developed them and presented them in the political form of current reality.
>*throws commies out of helicopter* >"Yeah I broke the NAP and the commies are coming, I'm ready for them though, plenty of guns and ammo." Gee that was hard.
Michael Cruz
that quote is specifically from page 192 btw

I think I just discovered where Obama's phrase "the wrong side of history" came from, or at least the general rhetorical sentiment:
>When you don't have the initiative in the struggle and the struggle itself comes eventually to be identified with a series of defeats, mechanical determinism becomes a tremendous force of moral resistance, of cohesion and of patient and obstinate perseverance. "I have been defeated for the moment, but the tide of history is working for me in the long term."
So the phrase first starts being used in 1935. Mysterious at least.

Are you denying the existence of cultural marxism?
Christian Peterson
Cultural marxism is the phenomenon that resulted in the emergence of cultural studies. It's basically a Western European twist on marxism that puts more emphasis on the role of culture (or of the superstructure in determining the base). It comes from a reaction against Engels and deterministic forms of Soviet marxism and is informed especially by some of Marx's more humanistic, earlier works (such as the Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844). Try reading the following book. You might find it to be an interesting story (ps -- it has nothing to do with trannies or feminism).

Only slightly OT: This all happened before, in 1488. Seek out Matthew Raphael Johnson's lecture of August 9th of this year, on the Judaizer Heresy and old Novgorod. It covers such topics as Jewish cultural engineering, the Russian Orthodox Synod that formally laid judgment on Jewish cultural warfare in the year 1488, the use of science and cultural liberalization to attack Christendom, authentic proof in the form of intercepted letters ("What they take of your property our merchants will take back from them ... they will destroy our synagogues but we will own their churches"), the non-contradiction of respecting individual Jews versus deploring Jewish organizational and cultural efforts, the importance of objective truth and eschewing namecalling, and university professors devoting half their orientation to the monitoring and reporting of suspected politically dissident students. Also notice that this actually is connected to CM by pic related, ie, CM is merely the latest in a series of cultural engineering efforts which predate Marx and parallel the development of Kabbalah. Okay, not letting me post the image but it's here:

You can save people by nonconfrontational tactics that slowly drip reality into their bubble world Don't debate them, just give them random facts here and there and let them convince themselves
Michael Lewis
I think it might be from "Kultur und Gesellschaft" anyone know any English translations? Might only be in German...
Ethan Long
>Logic is not independent of content This is a standard idea among Frankfurt School writers, even if you can't find the exact source. Try Adorno's "The Essay as Form" ("Der Essay als Form") for a detailed working through of this argument. Roughly speaking, they were interested in critiquing the standard Platonic distinction between form and content. Instead, people such as Adorno and Marcuse were interested in the idea that the form is integral to the content, especially in creative works such as lyric poetry, prose writing, and classical music. This leads to Adorno arguing that it doesn't really make sense to break a work up into small pieces, since it's no longer the same work anymore. This also, incidentally, led to Adorno opposing standard practices of quotation or taking small parts out of their original context (which, ironically enough, is exactly what OP is wanting to do).
Chase Nguyen
Apparently its not Marcuse, it's Horkheimer from a work called "Dammerung". No idea where to find it.
Charles Jones
>Horkheimer from a work called "Dammerung With his return to Frankfurt the year after the publication of both Eclipse of Reason and Dialectic of Enlightenment, Horkheimer’s academic production would largely consist of essays and lectures. He also left a number of unpublished texts from the period, including a set of notes and aphorisms published shortly after his death (along with a set of aphorisms from the early 30s titled Dämmerung) under the name Notizen 1950 bis 1969. There is no real systematic unity to these writings (Habermas 1993, p. 51 even refers to them as “shot through with contradictions”), but there are common themes that can be explored. plato.stanford.edu/entries/horkheimer/
The exact quote in the English translation is: "The interpretation of logic as a system of linguistic forms devoid of content soon proves to be questionable, however, and it is quickly abandoned in the struggle with metaphysics." p. 169. It's from an essay called "The Latest Attack on Metaphysics."

Awesome thank you. One of the worst things about relying on secondary sources for leads is how little cited sources people bother with. Its infuriating actually. Not just critics of the Frankfurt school, but fellow travelers citing them -- no one cites sources.

You're welcome. Citations help a lot. I'd say that the worst things about discussions of the Frankfurt School is that most people who weigh in with opinions don't even read the works they purport to be talking about.

Jason Hall
People like Marcuse, Foucault, Lacan and the other Leftwing philosophers of the period stole what became critical theory from Heideggerian concept of "enframing." Heidegger realized that you could create a reality by enframing the narrative in a way of you choosing. Heidegger used the metaphor of a forest and how different types of people may view it. An industrialist may see it as a source of lumber for his mills to turn a profit, the river running through it as a source of energy. The things themselves being obscurred by the narrative they overlay. Marcuse used enframing in his One Dimensional Man to show how the people of a capitalist nation measured success by the tools of capitalism, i.e. how much consumer goods they have aquired. Heidegger knew, what his lesser jewish studens stole, that an axiom isnt self evident until the concept is introduced. Enframe the axiom with the devices and metrics that you wish it to be judged by and you control reality. Look at this NFL nonsense. If the poor working class slobs that funnel their money into this national distraction could see it for what it is: a means of normalizing subhumans and a defacto repairations mechanism, we'd be a different nation in a week.
Connor Campbell
>most people who weigh in with opinions don't even read the works they purport to be talking about On both sides, that's why its so retarded to have these debates without some citations to set the boundaries of what people can get away with. The other thing that sucks is how wirters like Adorno are so "obscurantist", kind of like Leo Strauss. Reading them is pure pain, and half the time you've dissected a passage or page only to realize that the idea was a tautology or just rhetorical autism saying nothing very profound. I SWEAR half of them were clinically autistic, literally.
Brayden Cox
>Heidegger realized that you could create a reality by enframing the narrative in a way of you choosing. This isn't what Heidegger means by enframing or "Gestell." Have you read "Die Frage nach Technik"? Ontology isn't a choose-your-own adventure game. It's about coming to recognize the conditions and qualities of Being. I find the metaphor of the clearing in the forest to be helpful. If you get your reading of Heidegger right, you might find it a lot easier to make sense of Marcuse.
Grayson Johnson
>a defacto repairations mechanism How exactly does that work?
Brody Scott
>Reading them is pure pain, and half the time you've dissected a passage or page only to realize that the idea was a tautology or just rhetorical autism saying nothing very profound.
This is because the Jews are con-artists and illusionists at heart. They are a group of people that are fundamentally in conflict with reality so they seek to use pilpul(sophistry) to 'create' it.
Brody Gomez
Have you? Its exactly what it is talking about. An industrialist sees the forest one way, an ecologist another. Neither is right or wrong, they both enframe it via their concern. Their authentic dasein. Being and Time expands that reality is a choose your own adventure, as you bring about a reality by simply starting in a metaphysical conceptual mode, then act to bring it forward into phenomenal space.
Nathaniel Long
>pilpul(sophistry) lol nice

Xavier Thompson
How else can you get working class whites to not only pay blacks for an essentially useless skill, but idolize them. Take an existing and well loved institution: sports. Then reframe it as an avenue of social justice and integration. Think about it. How were blacks initially accepted, via what route? Sports. Safe humble choices at first like Owens or Louis or Aaron. The turning point being an out n out freak like Cassius Clay. Whites paid for their own undoing of their own culture.
Levi Hernandez
Yes, the will to power.
Aaron Scott
>Have you? Absolutely. That's the point. You misunderstand what Heidegger is saying quite badly. Heidegger is massively conservative (and a Nazi) and opposes the instrumental use of being in the manner of an industrialist. The industrialist debases the world by seeing it as a source only of profit and exploitation. The ecologist, in contrast, is likely to be more respectful of Being in itself, which means understanding the essence of what is. You're misreading Heidegger terribly if you think he's just giving a description of what the industrialist does to the forest. Heidegger thinks the industrialist is failing catastrophically to understanding and acknowledge Being. The industrialist is the enemy of Being. These sentences catch the idea pretty nicely of what Heidegger positively endorses instead: "Wherever man opens his eyes and ears, unlocks his heart, and gives himself over to meditating and striving, shaping and working, entreating and thanking, he finds himself everywhere already brought into the unconcealed. The unconcealment of the unconcealed has already propriated whenever it calls man forth into the modes of revealing allotted to him. When man, in his way, from within unconcealment reveals that which presences, he merely responds to the call of unconcealment, even when he contradicts it. Thus when man, investigating, observing, pursues nature as an area of his own conceiving, he has already been claimed by a way of revealing that challenges him to approach nature as an object of research, until even the object disappears into the objectlessness of standing-reserve."
Joshua Reyes
You can't even understand the quote. Its meaning disappears. It has no a priori meaning outside your enframing. Just what your concern and authentic dasein call you to view it as. For him to TELL you what the forest IS and how YOU should see it for you is a direct contradiction to everything he wrote.
Jose Wright
>get working class whites to not only pay blacks It just seems like rather small-scale reparations for any blacks to actually perceive it as such, as I'm assuming no one cares that blacks actually be paid back in a substantial way that satisfies some notion of justice. The idolizing them makes more sense, and obviously it also works as bread and circuses for blacks everywhere who idolize these celebrities even MORE than the working class whites do. That being said, blacks don't seem to really be getting the money of lower class whites, since blacks (as a racial class) aren't the owners of teams or the league merchandise.
Owen Roberts

>What's your understanding of it, user? Satanism/kabbalism.
Gavin Thomas
Well, it works less as an across the board leveling than it does an insidious creep of multi culti. You have to realize the massive undertaking it is to level things for blacks and do it semi surreptitiously. They aren't intelligent and hard working enough to elevate within a blue collar construct, certainly not for the sciences or even the humanities. They showed promise for running in a field, and even then i suspect elements if the games and rules had to be geared towards them.
Grayson Cruz
Enframing is crucial to the process of unconcealment of the fundamental Dasein, but this doesn't mean you can just make up Dasein to be whatever you want or whatever you feel like. It is determined by its own essence, which itself is a thing not available without the laborious process of working through the enframing. This is why the industrialist is the enemy of Being -- he is someone concerned only with exploiting and taking advantage of the world, and so ends up dealing with the mere epiphenomena of beings and doesn't get remotely close to the question of the essence of Dasein in itself. Meaning is not something you can just make up to suit your own ends. This is the disaster of instrumental reason that uses technology without even beginning to ask the question of what technology even is. Heidegger is opposed to meaning as something you make up to suit your own whims and desires (though you seem to want it to be that, so you can blame other philosophers for taking up some kind of fantasy hedonism from Heidegger).
Caleb Cook

You realize the sentence contradicts itself, in a paragraph that contradicts itself, because he's trying to simultaneously culpabilize democracy for letting "the masses" have a say while wealth subverts and overrides their say, while arguing that it's good and proper for elites with "the right ideas" to override the stupidity of the masses. Classic leftoid schizophrenia: they proclaim their enemies evil, then immediately repeat their evils because "anything goes when fighting evil". Their dissonance is that they are somehow not evil, or that their struggle is in any way moral, or an alternative to their enemies.

Healthy love dies in marriage, which is a business transaction….The bourgeois family gives off swamp vapors.” >“Politics is only the means. Culture is the goal.”
Horkheimer: >“The root of Nazi totalitarianism [is] the family.”
Wilhelm Reich: >The organized religious mysticism of Christianity was an element of the authoritarian family that led to Fascism. >The patriarchal power in and outside of man was to be dethroned. >Revolutionary sexual politics would mean the complete collapse of authoritarian ideology. >Birth control was revolutionary ideology. >Man was fundamentally a sexual animal. >”Marriages fall to pieces as a result of the ever deepening discrepancy between sexual needs and economic conditions. The sexual needs can be gratified with one and the same partner for a limited time only. On the other hand, the economic tie, moralistic demand, and human habit foster the permanency of the relationship. This results in the wretchedness of marriage.”
