Was it not the story of Samuel that Paine used to argue against loyalty to the Monarchy? FOR GOD'S WILL we must?

I struggle with this constantly because Law, custom, and tradition, in being followed, mean, by our referencing them, something! Not *just* proof of our looming work, of present and previous barbarism, but also that we shouldn't "over-identify ourselves with our experiments"

And let me be clear: when I react against those who should do better than to be reactionary, that, that they shouldn't be reactionary, is all I'm really saying. Noll also notes that the rolling tension which would become the Revolution began from siding against Catholic France

For me, it's more a question of who, now, are we talking to. I, to your face, could reprove nothing, as there is nothing given to me to reprove the reality of, say, the Constitution and its "subterfuge" of slavery. But, amongst another's face, could I reprove its praise?

Dialectical Zach-Zack Loeffler@thezachloeffler
The discourse has moved on from this, but we lose the fight against those who reject culture and seek to further directly the barbarism that it opposes if we suppress in the fight that every cultural document is a document of barbarism.

This will blow your mind, but Marx was not a Marxist. Christ was also not a Christian. There's a massive difference between Lenin, Luxemburg, Lukács, Liebknecht, actual Marxists, and Roemer, Fraser, and Brown, and it's not the letter L, but begins with the letter R.

the burnerverse on here is a great example of modern day homosexuality, where-- instead of us true inverts, or queers, who find in our common sex the other-- a man is completely free to judge another man because he assumes (ignorantly hopes) him to be like himself, to be subject

how he could say this without also referencing Plato is for Education's sake scary
Karl Marx@marxhaunting
To Hegel, the life process of the human brain, i.e., the process of thinking, which, under the name of “the Idea,” he even transforms into an independent subject, is the demiurgos of the real world, and the real world is only the external, phenomenal form of “the Idea.”

though I don't understand or agree with the finale of that paragraph; I think Adorno, through his dialectics, reaches parallels of what is "independent of all reference" that would have nothing to do with a "philosophical account," even if Adorno's goal was to see it through
English
I think y'all can at least admit Adorno's project was much more history heavy (which is literally the referential, which is what's implied by doing a CRITIQUE). It wasn't ignored, as it was here & there, but I don't think it was anywhere close to as centered as it was for Hegel

Missing from Adorno's work is the Hegelian notion of 'self-reference'; missing from the Marxism of both men (Adorno and Benjamin) is any notion of human activity or praxis. -- Gillian Rose
