Quote
The most Gothic description of Capital is also the most accurate. Capital is an abstract parasite, an insatiable vampire and zombie-maker; but the living flesh it converts into dead labor is ours, and the zombies it makes are us.
Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism (via poeticsofdissolution)

Another very vulgar commonplace is that Marx was a Hegelian in his youthful writings, that it was only afterwards that he became the theoretician of historical materialism, and that, when he was older, he became a vulgar opportunist. It is a task of the revolutionary marxist school to make it clear to all its enemies (who have the choice to accept everything or reject everything) the monolithism of the whole system from its birth to the death of Marx and even after him (the fundamental concept of invariance, the fundamental rejection the ‘enriching’ evolution of the party doctrine

i know marxist anti-humanism seems to be built a lot on the idea that marx rejected alienation as a theory, but even if this was true (i do not believe so) you could still point to the humanistic basis of commodity fetishism. obviously its a complicated theory but to me the basis seems to be that under capitalism we are ruled by things. So, from this it would seem to follow that in a communist society this would be the reverse, humans would rule things. So even in this supposedly non-humanistic theory a society in which humanity is fulfilled creatively is essentially being advocated, so i dont buy that capital is some mature scientific work that breaks from marx’s immature early philosophical work.

True fact: the two fucking morons in this video actually deserve each other IMO. American radicalism - or why you shouldn’t actually give an inch to intersectionalist dumbasses https://web.facebook.com/tumblrinaa/videos/503965046647115/?hc_ref=ARTWrt15ttiUqACYksJKE_G8MHj_r6xVnLt1c8ow_Zbiwju0bz-Dakah5WgcRa__xLo
