The greatest intellectual observation I personally have witnessed here on Revleft:
Economic determinism has failed in almost all cases, which is why leftists still haven't convinced the masses (despite economic crises and all). Sexual determinism, on the other hand, seems to be solid because man is essentially a sexual being. His every act, at least on a subconscious level, is determined by sexuality.
All people are basically sadomasochists. Either they enjoy torturing others, or they enjoy getting tortured by others. Why else do you think some people want power at all costs? It's because they're sadists and by capturing power, they can abuse 'little people' and derive sexual pleasure thereof.
And these 'little people' are not every innocent either. They're masochists, and they too derive the same sexual pleasure by suffering at the hands of their leaders. This is why we often see slaves cheering for their masters, no matter what. It's because they enjoy being at the receiving end, it fulfills them sexually.
For instance, if you argue in favor of communism, you'll be attacked by workers, of all people! Even though workers are exploited by capitalism, they're the ones who defend capitalism. Poor people go to war in order to protect the rich people! In other words, the man who suffers is willing to defend the people who're making him suffer!
How else can one explain these inconsistencies in human behavior? Lack of class consciousness isn't the issue. To know that one is being exploited and abused...you don't have to be a genius to figure that one out. So it's obvious that people know that they're being exploited. They just don't mind as long as the exploitation satisfies them sexually.
Bottom line, all conflict -- from street fights to international politics -- is sexual in nature. Else, there will be no motive to fight. Even if one argues that the motive is money (rather than sex), why does one need money? It's because money can buy sex. So even though money (or any other factor, for that matter) seems to be cause of conflict, it's only an apparent one, a secondary one. The real cause happens to be the desire for sexual gratification
Which sentence should I choose as my new sig?
