[Adorno4498]

Hey.
Beliefs:
Post-Marxist, yet retaining beliefs of revolution and class war found in Orthodoxy. Basically, a Post-modern Marxist in theory and an Anarcho-Syndicalist in practice. I generally dislike divisions within the revolutionary movement, and am for a reunion between between anarchism and communism.
Interests:
Musicology, Art history, Human nature, the origin of language, the role of the peasantry, psychology, the use of punk rock, the counterculture and street art as an instruments of revolutionary insurrection and it's promotion, the culture industry.
Influences:
Lao Tse, Plato, St. Simon, Fourier, Smith, Peirce, Hegel, Marx, Nietzche, Freud, Luxembourg, Lenin, Voloshinov, Mao, Gramsci, Guevara, Adorno, Horkheimer, Fromm, Weber, Baudrillard, Debord, Althusser, Ian Mackaye, Cobain, Chomsky, Zizek, Balibar.

Welcome :)

I've edited away your name, we have a policy of not sharing personal information as this site is known to be followed by state services, fascists and other scum.

Psycho, if you are interested in the development of fascism and post-capitalist consumerism, it is absolutely necessary you read Enlightenment as Mass Deception. I also suggest reading Horkheimer's Dispelling the Myth of Costumer as King, Marcuse's Eros and Civilisation, Fromm's work on child development and it being influenced by the means of production, Ho Chi Minh's letter to the Fine Arts Society, Debord's Society of the Spectacle, Wilhelm Reich's Psychology of Mass Fascism, and (I can't remember the author's name) Non-Zero.

Instant love.

I find your literature recommendations interesting. What do you think about what are often called the "major works" of the Frankfurt School: Studies on the Authoritarian Character, Dialectics Of Enlightenment and Negative Dialectics?
