This has nothing to do with you, but I should like to point out that what I mean by "crypto-Fascism" is that a person is cryptically engaging within a...

That idea resulted in this, which are these Anarchists posing as Communists' claim that an effective spontaneous global revolution can be waged à la G...

The "barbarism" is a raison d'être for an entendre of "Marxism-Stirnerism". Max Stirner, himself, seemed like kind of an alright guy, as well as the o...

I am in agreement with that Israel is just kind of like any other Western nation. I have a lot to say about it, but also already have in this thread. ...

As I must continue to clarify, I don't just convert to left-wing Liberalism because they are in closer proximity to parties of whom I would just as so...

He's talking about the phenomenal cases where they do. That's what his theory is about, how the message, when it is just kind of put out there in the ...

There's all kinds of complex circumstances that play into the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. People say that it's just about land, religion, Western ex...

He's just going to keep at it in a refusal to admit that the Anarchist movement is a cult and in attempt to save the political, cultural, and intellec...

I just found for him to be fairly amicable. I could never really wrap my head around what he was on about, though.

For posterity: /lit/ is home to a crypto-Fascist racket, as per Jacques Camatte's usage of the term in "On Organization", effectively an informal lega...

Also, in my defense, Anarchists, hipsters, and a litany of nefarious clandestine parties have destroyed my life to such an extent that it just wouldn'...

It seems to me that they'd just restore some form of Liberal democracy. Should the geo-political situation worsen to the point of revolution being nec...

It's there so that anyone who tries to put this into effect knows what they're getting into. I could have written several sentences, but I figured tha...

Though often inclined towards irony, the literal statement that I have just made does explicitly describe what I was attempting to in the original pos...

That is what people who are fairly keen on such things mean by "crypto-Fascism" and why I took such great efforts in previously clarifying as to what ...

I don't know. Was Kierkegaard an Existentialist? Does it really matter?
May 17, 2021 at 23:32
Not really. You send a message out there and it somehow reaches its recipient. Some people call it serendipity.
May 17, 2021 at 23:30
I should also note that I have merely posted to safeguard my position within a political foray that I would prefer to leave behind and that, should an...

I have not said that. I have said that I would be more inclined to support someone like Jeremy Corbyn, whom I previously defended against statements t...

I agree with your opposition to the Fabians to some extent, but, as I just don't live in the United Kingdom, I don't understand why you think you ough...

You have misunderstood Kierkegaard. In Fear and Trembling, he states that Abraham could only act upon "the strength of the absurd" and that it would b...

Fair enough, but being let to cultivate a person's way of life is what the Faustian bargain is made for. Highway 61 intersects Highway 66. I'm fairly ...

Probably not terribly favorably, but I only have your analysis to go on.

I haven't advocated Fabiainism. I have just said that I don't know anything about it.

I think that there's a certain truth to what you glean at of the so-called "hippies". The traded the marches and songs of the Civil Rights Movement fo...
