Holy Trinity of Marxism

[Die Rote Fahne]

I heard this term tossed around on a conservative talkshow when a caller who described himself as a Marxist called in to discuss terrorism.

Of course, the conservatives turned everything around and started calling him an anarchist because, according to them, Marxism does not want a stateless society...

I know right....

But they also tossed out this idea, which i have been unable to find anywhere on the internet, about the so-called 'holy trinity' of Marxism. This holy trinity involved Freud and 2 others i cannot recall...

Like the caller I was unable to respond, as I had never heard of this in my 2 years as a Marxist. Has anyone heard of this?

[Nolan]

Lol no. They make up shit all the time.

I can only find something about Marx, Freud and Einstein on some sort of Zionist world conspiracy website.

Must be that, then. Frigging trinities...

Seriously, Freudian Marxists? What's the deal here? Maybe we should make a new tendency, to reflect this latest development of leftist thought...

[Black Sheep]

I wonder what's the freudian explanation of a 'desire for revolution'.

lol I'll just quote from that site

"It has been alleged that Marx, Freud and Einstein constitute a new "holy trinity", destroying all cultural tradition. "

"The concept "Relativity" is akin to "Relational", "Dialectical", "Reflexive" (George Soros' preference: soros2.html (http://www.mailstar.net/soros2.html)), and "Lateral" (as in "lateral thinking").

The basic idea of "dialectical" thinking is that we live in a "bounded" world, in which actions ricochet ... that the human world is more like a squash court than a tennis court ... that you may achieve your goal by proceeding in the opposite direction."

I'm pretty sure this isn't what the OP was talking about though.

When I saw the title the first thing I thought of was Lenin's 'Three Sources and Components of Marxism': classical political economy, German philosophy and French Socialism. But that wouldn't appear to have anything to do with Freud.

It seems someone already has: Freudo-Marxism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freudo-Marxism).

Darwin, Marx, Freud. They broke Jesus Christ's heart.

I think I remember reading something about how these three basically destroyed the Judeo-Christian worldview and ushered in an era of postmodernist immorality unknown since the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.

You'd be amazed how things can be recast when you pretend Freud was a German philosopher. I mean, c'mon, German, Austrian (or Czech, or whatever you want to call him), same thing, philosophy, psychoanalysis, same thing, it's all something to do with peoples' brains and stuff...so clearly that's what Lenin meant when he mentioned German philosophy...

Those were the three; Darwin, Freud and Marx.
