  • Well, has it solved global conflicts? Has any president or other great leader been influenced by Critical Theory? Has there been a successful government program or popular revolution based on Critical Theory? Has Critical Theory solved problems of hunger, or any resource shortage? Has Critical Theory made laws easier to understand and more fair? Things like that. I keep hearing about it, and altho some right-wingers say it’s evil, other people have more confusing answers. I’m a more classical Marxist, and I’ve read through some of it, but I can’t understand if it would help the proletariat towards revolution, or just well-being in general.


  • Bitch, words have wildly varying meanings. What does “embolden” mean here? What does “communication” mean here? Is this a religious thing? The transcription process of DNA can be described, as can the movement of planets, and what causes fire to burn and extinguish, but for some reason this is too esoteric for me to understand because of “the system”. What is this “system”? What isn’t this “system”? Is this the Anything-But-Class theorizing that Parenti was talking about?
