This clip from #MyDinnerWithAndre puts me in mind of #CriticalTheory takes on #consumer culture under late capitalism, especially that of #FrankfurtSchool folks, who were studying why the #proletariat would not throw its chains. We have been lured into the mousetrap and caught.

"The contributions to the Forum refer to Simon Clarke’s ‘two stages of the same project’, as Clarke explained regarding Marx’s work. They make apparent that Clarke’s initial intellectual contributions to the critique of political economy, form analysis, value theory, theory of the state and money were essential to his later understanding of the collapse and metamorphosis of the former URSS State Socialism into a capitalist form, and his analysis of the political implications of such transformation on labour relations, working-class interests and class struggle in Russia, other Eastern European countries, China, and Vietnam."

The new book of my long-time collaborator, Seyed Javad Miri, has just been released. Critical theory can be done outside of Eurocentrism. It’s available through the publisher, Ekpyrosis Press, Amazon, and Lulu (all links below). #philosophy #sociology #psychology #history #theology #mysticism #Iran #Islam #MiddleEast #academia #Criticaltheory #academicmastodon #politics #politicalscience https://ekpyrosispress.com/product/towards-emancipation-decolonality-and-critical-social-theory-in-the-primordial-school-of-thought-by-seyed-javad-miri/
"Although the contributions here were written before the events of October 7, it is impossible to read the book outside of the many conflicts that continue to divide the left on the question of Israel and Palestine. At times, the arguments here lack a sufficiently critical perspective on Israel, Zionism and the political economy of occupation. Antisemitism, indeed, exists. There are also antisemitic perspectives regarding the state of Israel and Zionism. In a treatment of the Initiative Socialist Forum (ISF), for example, Stoetzler relates some of the history regarding the anti-Zionism of the Stalinist and Maoist, German New Left (16-17). The politics of antisemitism, however, is also being instrumentalized by defenders of Israeli policy against those who express solidarity for occupied Palestine. Although one does find a differential account of the Frankfurt School’s varying political orientations in regarding Zionism here, too often the treatment of the Palestine question plays into equivocations regarding the politics of anti-Zionism and antisemitism in a manner that reduces all criticism of Israel to pathologized forms of anti-imperialism or anti-capitalism. The uncritical acceptance of an absolute identity of Israeli policy and Jewishness can also be a form of antisemitism, as Braune observes (165). Such equivocation preempts the possibility of enlightened, rational criticism of Israeli policies. Can such a critical perspective that grasps the concrete violence of Israel-Palestine be grasped in its mediation by capitalist society? At times it seems not. Still, the arguments presented here are far from monolithic, and should be considered."

"Identity is, for me, a point of departure for alliances, which need to include all kinds of people, from trans to working people to those taxi drivers that J. K. Rowling is worried about. Identity is a great start for making connections and becoming part of larger communities. But you can’t have a politics of identity that is only about identity. If you do that, you draw sectarian lines, and you abandoned our interdependent ties."—Judith Butler [interviewed by Iker Seisdedos on El País - English] >
