I think this is fine, as long as we’re not confusing “traditional family values” for the values of the modern, nuclear family, and as long as we’re not confusing lgbtq rights as some kind of “anti traditional family values” forces. Granted, Zizek isn’t doing any of this, he’s responding to a question, and pointing out flaws in a lot of right wing and/or “western” and/or “liberal” (etc) conceptions and narratives about the Frankfurt School, Communism, “Cultural Marxism”, and so on, and so on. I’m just pointing it out as a side note, as no doubt people take these points and facts, and then sometimes run into some weird, often reactionary directions with them (eg, lgbtq rights being anti-family, and/or the modern/nuclear family being an accurate reflection of healthy traditional family values).

Cultural marxism is a good description of a certain leftist tendency. Combining psychoanalysis and marxism, left wing identity politics, deconstructing social values, ect. What are we supposed to call it? I think cultural marxism is an accurate description of most post 1960s leftists in the west.

@yerusalem48325 жыл бұрын
@@Kumaryoku eric fromm has an essay called "Marxism, Psychoanalysis and Reality" where he talks about how dialectical materialism and psychoanalysis are the only scientific approaches to sociology and psychology, respectively. Here is the opening paragraph: "During the last 35 years, I have written many works, in which - under different aspects - I tried to explain that there are not only points where Marxism and psychoanalysis overlap but that there is also an intrinsic interdependency between the two. This means, I do not only believe that a synthesis is possible but also an existential necessity." I thought it was pretty well known that psychoanalysis and Marxism are linked. They genuinely have similar starting points, especially a belief in the elasticity of human psychology and sociology (now disproven by empirical science). Freudo-Marxism is the whole tendency of the New Left, along with abandoning revolutionary activity in favor of gradually influencing society thru what amounts to infiltration and subversion (Fabian Socialists admit this).

@@yerusalem4832 Huh, that was a big knowledge gap for me, thanks for the info and quick reply. I've mainly been exposed to phenomenological and existential psychoanalysis, which I have (in accordance with Zizek in this clip) associated as the representant of psychoanalysis, which is of course incorrect. Do you mean by Marxism being empirically disproven that it has been shown that human psyche and its development is less dependent on societal influences than postulated?

@@Kumaryoku well, i think leftists would have to get rid of their idea of the human mind as a blank slate, which Marx seemed to take for granted. By disproven, i mean the debate over "nature vs nurture" does not skew to nurture nearly as much as most leftists would like to believe. Steve Pinker has talked about this in his Blank Slate book, how the social sciences have underestimated "evolutionary psychology." So maybe leftism itself isnt scientifically disproven but i dont see many of them discarding the outdated blank slate theory.
@ryancurnow58065 жыл бұрын
@@yerusalem4832 Leftists don't believe in blank slate theory. Or, if they do, they're kidding themselves. But it doesn't make a difference. Much of evolutionary psychology IS still subject to nurture, and many experts in the field dispute this very strongly. You'll find some saying that nature is the most predominent and others saying nurture. But to be quite honest, it doesn't make a difference. Morally speaking, we leftists want a society where we can help people live well and do the work they want regardless of their IQ or whatever. And honestly, unless you're a full blown nazi who wants to euthanize disabled people or something, I think you'd have trouble disagreeing with that.

@@GG.Sanchoo Adorno infamously wrote a hitpiece against Jazz - his biographer Detlev Claussen connects this to the fact that he was an exiled neo-classical composer who tried to fend off the pressure to economically survive by composing more popular stuff and that made him project his fears of humiliation onto Jazz. Homosexuality is a more complicated topic. They viewed the militarized, masculine group-spirit typical for fascism or fraternities as fueled by a certain homosexual libido, but that doesn't directly translate into a rejection of actual homosexual relationships. But nothing, by all means, supports the idea that PC-culture has anything to do with their ideas. Much to the contrary, in fact.

Zizek always tries to turn things upside down, with his tautological balderdash and always carries a baggage of irrelevant references, so it can appear as he has something important to say. In reality, he is just participating in creative talk that only fragmentary resembles philosophical reasoning, and while occassionaly making some valid points, they are oftenly bunch of trivialities. Zizek is a meme precisely for his character, which is a comical and neurotical pseudo-genius npc that poses as a philosopher

Ironically this post gives the appearance of deriding Zizek for having nothing important to say, while at the same time saying nothing of any importance. Zero examples given to support your claim that Zizek gives zero examples to support his claims. Lots of "creative talk that only fragmentary resembles philosophical reasoning" used to accuse Zizek of creative talk that only fragmentarily resembles philosophical reasoning. Trivialities leveled against Zizek for speaking trivially. Use your brain before using your words, my friend.

The term "cultural Marxism" is strictly Marxist. It was first presented by Trent Schroyer in 1973. He was a Marxist scholar from the core Marxist academic organization, the New School in NY. "The Critique of Domination: The Origins and Development of Critical Theory", 1973, ISBN 9780807606841. The term is very imprecise though. The correct one should be: "anticultural Marxism".

@@The80sWolf_ - no it is not this. You are wrong. On the contrary - what you are doing here is slander. Trying to tie Marxism with discredited Nazis as their invention, as a form of stygma. Nazis were socialists, another straing of far left anti-civilization racist movement. Targeting culture for destruction was invented and declared much earlier - by Karl Marx in 1844 and by Rousseau as an even earlier precursor. The Frankfurt School developed this idea to the modern mutation as neomarxism and it is obviously apparent, especially nowadays.
