And gas-lighting about cultural marxism is a common tactic for cultural marxists who want to destroy the west. They shouldn't have written so much about what they were doing from the 1920s to the 1960s, now they can't deny it effectively.
> who really are the victims ?

They tried to twist it into something tame and dismissive, but gave up. Like I said, it's too hard to deny something that was called "cultural marxism", and produced so much writing and scholarship. They would have to erase all the works of the early critical theorists, then deny what modern social creationist activist scholars are producing. Better to just censor the topic entirely.

>straight white males still fearful of minorities
No, I'm afraid of white leftists who want white males to be stripped of all power, rights, respect, or oppotunities. I would like to live in a society that is founded upon my interests, just like everyone else. I'll pursue that by any means necessary, get over it.

Rightwingers typically lean towards white supremacy, something they feel they must protect, even with violence. The good thing is that it's an unsustainable position. Playing victim doesn't work in their favor, understanding and tolerance pretty much rolls over these types of low educated people.
>Anyone who takes a cool look at the last three decades of politics will think it bizarre that anyone could interpret what’s happened as the triumph of an all-powerful left.
Being this retarded.
Cultural Marxism is a real phenomenon though - sometimes called "Western Marxism" to make a distinction with the more economic-centric Soviet version of which it is a subsidiary branch. It's important to understand that one of the biggest movements of the Left in our time - Feminism - derives from the writings of Simone de Beauvoir (among others) who was central in the Western Marxist movement. The other big movement of our time - "political correctness" which hugely informs our cultural discourse to the point of near-total domination also derives exclusively from Gramscian theories of cultural hegemony, also other thinkers like Lukacs informed this movement. The end result is what we have today - a culture of repudiation of all Western values, constant criticism of traditions and other Western norms.

>understanding and tolerance pretty much rolls over these types of low educated people.
you say that after making a broad, erroneous, and insulting judgement about large group of people
nice understanding and tolerance, shitlord
>>68012277
And what about non-whites who also lament the subversion of the west? What about other ethnic groups like Japanese, Chinese, or Hindus, who seek to preserve THEIR cultures and identities in the face of globalism and modernity? What slur to you use to delegitimize their desires for posterity?
Cultural marxist ideas can be turned against any society. It's not just straight white males who are at risk. The globalist and universalists will attack other nations when they're done with the west.

I never at any time present myself as a victim, on the contrary, I have an easy life which I know I didn't fight for. However, I know my enemies and I know what threat they present against me. I know reason and I know my enemies does not know reason. Being a national socialist is not about complaining about how hard your life is or what benefits you are entitled to recieve from others - that is what cultural marxism is about. Nat. Soc. is about demanding what is your peoples and demanding that your fellow comrades indulges 100 % in their work and not to complain and demand anything they haven't earned.
There are no victims, only the strong and the weak.

If the ultimate goal of this "conspiracy" that you reactionary fucksticks have deluded yourselves into believing is the overthrowing of late capitalist cultural hegemony (i.e. postmodernism) and the collectivization of the means of production (i.e. communism) then I'd say this "conspiracy" is a pretty fucking abject failure, no?

This doesn't explain rightists who are anti-capitalist. The left seems to have an impoverished conception of the right. It's only the Left vs. Capitalism, which makes sense because the left hasn't fundamentally changed for 150 years, and can't comprehend anything more complicated than this simple narrative. It's why they haven't noticed they they have become the globalists, and the right is anti-imperialist as a consequence of its belief in essentialism.
>>68015417
>late capitalist cultural hegemony (i.e. postmodernism)
I think you mean late in your subversion of "capitalism" (aka western society). It's no accident that these same post modernists marched with a red fist on their t-shirt in their youth and still have the communist manifesto on their bookshelf.

>>68015417
The right is against liberalism as much as it is against communism. The following is just as disgusting and terrifying to the rightist as Bolshevism.
>Statsindividualism is an ideology founded on an alliance between the state on one hand and a free individual on the other side. The State individualistic principle grew strong in Sweden during the 1960s and 1970s through reforms like the introduction of särbeskattningen , the construction of kindergartens and nursery schools , general education grant system , changes in family law and a radicalized family policy . The relationship between the state and the individual within the ideology presupposes and reinforces both a strong individualism and a strong state, which means that citizens have a stronger relationship to the state for their freedom and their livelihood, health and care than she has in their own family circumstances or civil society . According to the historian of ideas Peter Antman is "getting welfare states are equally consistently built around the idea of individual autonomy as Sweden. Almost all of our welfare system is linked to the individual, not to the family or to work that is so common in other Western countries."
>Proponents of statsindividualism believes that such reforms that frees individuals from personal dependencies of civil society - such as other individuals, private institutions , family and charities - are preferred; When the government takes greater responsibility by, for example, unemployment benefits and public health insurance the individual becomes freer. Critics of statsindividualism believe that this is a form of socialism and liberalism , combined to undermine the family and civil society, thereby making people more dependent on the state. During Almedalsveckan 2012 spoke example, the Christian Democrats party leader Goran Hagglund strongly opposed statsindividualism and to strengthen civil society instead.

You are right though in that there is a difference between "pure" marxism and that practiced by post modernists and such.

What about people who believe in socialism in the context of ethno-nationalism, but are against universalism, and the notion of a global society? Does mere fact that these distinct, and separate socialistic societies would inevitably have to compete against one and other to soe degree admit of too much market force and inequality that you can't even accept the existence of such sovereign cultures? What you don't get is that every other race in the world views this intolerance of their unique, and exclusionary expressions of the humanity as the modern face of imperialism, and (liberal) white intolerance of other groups. You're like Starfleet with an inverted Prime Directive to convert or destroy all other races in the galaxy. YOU'RE the imperialist now, and everyone else besides white liberals and their POC interlopers can see it. They'll put a bullet in your head for your hostile expansionism. They don't give a shit that you're doing it for "good reasons" any more than they care in retrospect that whites thought they were liberating the world 100 years ago with the last form of imperialism.

On the contrary, he's right at the centre of the "conspiracy theory", if you actually bothered to go and try to understand it. Also he's far from the only one given how influential the man was, both inside and outside Marxism.

It boils down to this, in my opinion: they want to eliminate all "hate" and prejudice of any kind. Not just racism, sexism, ALL of it.
They don't think we can be prejudiced but still have a semblance of respect and tolerance for others while going about our business in our lives.
But they want to codify morality under the guise of social justice, using the government as a means.

are you retarded? this is the case in basically any european country.
in german 50% of all muslims (prior to the refugee crisis) are unemployed and on welfare, 75% of their women. with the new immigrants it´s more like 65-70% unemployed. also foreigners, which are like 10% of the population, make up over 1/3 of all imprisoned people.
in switzerland 80% of all prison inmates are muslims but the non swiss minorities usually can´t get welfare there easily, switzerland is based.
the primary, to the society "non contributing factor", are muslims, niggers and gypsies in europe. They also drag down the average IQ/intelligence of the country and together with that, the educational difficulty gets reduced (everybody is a winner). i´ve read recently that if you factor out all the non german population, than german students are in the top5 of the PISA test, while currently were placed 15-20.

If it is malleable then you can permanently change it.
Then, do you think human nature can be static? Because it is not. It is dynamic regardless of how much you try to control it.
If Marxists really had their way we would be living in a police state. Everyone must be watched so no one steps out of line. We have prisons in America which are glorified police states. Yet murder and hate and rape still happen

Opposition to cultural marxism ISNT for rightwingers. Concerning Breivik, I don't know what his positions are, but real national socialists are leftists in the modern sense, ONLY in core values (Muh feels, and muh social values); they historically would have been considered part of the right wing. Because the right wing, during the time of the French revolution, was conservative towards the monarchy, whereas the leftwing were all for the rule of law rather than the rule of nobility and honor. MODERN leftwing is like the early rightwing in that regard, and modern rightwing is more historically left wing because of the moral absolutes that right-wingers believe in.
National socialists would therefore be considered Conservative leftists OR conservative classical-rightwingers.
Cultural Marxism, in essence, has existed before the Frankfurt school (just not formalized at the time).
"But all that I heard had the effect of arousing the strongest antagonism in me. Everything was disparaged--the nation, because it was held to be an invention of the 'capitalist' class (how often I had to listen to that phrase!); the Fatherland, because it was held to be an instrument in the hands of the bourgeoisie for the exploitation of' the working masses; the authority of the law, because that was a means of holding down the proletariat; religion, as a means of doping the people, so as to exploit them afterwards; morality, as a badge of stupid and sheepish docility. There was nothing that they did not drag in the mud."
- Adolf Hitler
Modern rightwing ideology doesn't have any values regarding the things which real conservative rightwingers hold dear, namely nationhood, race, religion, etc. You can listen to their rhetoric; of course, they say things like "We love religion", but include in their values the right to freedom of religion; they like race, but they believe in equal rights; they might even say they believe in gender roles, but they let you dress like a faggot.

"Liberals" on the other hand believe society to be more organic, less law/dictionary based, less defined, because it's in their very nature to question things, hence "Socialist realism" (A form of cultural Marxism); they're not liberals in the true sense of the word, because they don't want more rights; they want to restrict the rights of people, and promote a multicultural society and take from the top and give to the bottom, in all facets of life, like taking from whites and giving to blacks, or taking from men and giving to women, or taking from Christians and giving to Muslims, or like taking from the wealthy elite and giving to the impoverished; that is, in essence, raw cultural marxism.
National Socialists take the form of the organic society, like the leftwing, but are conservative on social issues, like the rightwing used to be.
We have these nu-males and alt-right people who believe in Jewish things like Libertarianism, or "natural rights", or god-forbid "God given rights" which is blasphemous to the church that they claim to be a part of, when they're all a part of the synagogue of Satan.
There are no rights that society didn't event by way of the evolution of society and the sociology of mankind. Again, it sounds very "liberal" but "muh feels" is what the liberals use to push Marxist individualism onto a conservative society, because "muh feels" is a right wing conservative concept. And guess what Libertarianism is, it's individualistic as well.

This myth of "Wealth disparity" has to be debunked. While it's not exactly a myth, it's certainly fallacious the way Liberals talk about it.
If the market has 2 apples; don't ask me why, it just does for some fucking reason.. So the market has 2 apples. You come along, and your stomach growls, so you go to buy an apple; you get the apple, and you're on your merry way. Then a rich guy comes along and his stomach growls, and he goes and buys the last apple. How is it unfair that the rich guy has a lot of money, if he only buys ONE apple? He's a human; just because he makes 1000 times as much money, doesn't mean he consumes 1000 times as many apples, or lives in a thousand more homes, or whatever. Wealth disparity exists as a gauge of financial stability; those with more money CAN afford to buy millions of apples, but they simply won't, because they have money because they're frugal with their money; they want to save money, and it's actually statistically true that rich people save more than the average population unlike some poor person who wins the lottery and blows it within a year.

This assumes there is only one apple tree. If there are multiple apple providers then the person selling the best product at the best price will be the most successful.
Of course it does sometimes happen that one guy buys (or lies, cheats and steals his way into having) ALL the apple trees, which is why monopolies are to be avoided as it causes this dynamic to break down.

Marxism has total hegemony in our education system. You cannot understand postmodern criticism without understanding marxism.
In a cultural sense, it is built upon the idea that culture is merely a synchronic expression of the prevailing structure of society (in simplistic marxist terms, the means of production). For example, Shakespeare is a product of the rise of capitalism and the decline of feudalism.
However, that is simply not true. Shakespeare's work is the diachronic product of 2,000 years of Western civilisation. The development of literary form from Homer to the Renaissance in a largely homogeneous, shared Western, European literary culture. And the cultural ideology of Shakespeare's own thought is a product of the same development.
The strange thing about postmodernism is that they reach this perception of the culture as a synchronic product of society while producing really quite genius, but deceptive Nietzchean-style diachronic genealogies, such as you find in Foucault. That is a contradiction.
Why do they do this? So that we can judge Shakespeare by the standards of our own time and call him a racist, sexist, privileged shitlord, completely ignoring the fact that he is, regardless, objectively the greatest writer of all time.
>>68011154
GTFO of mein Canada.
>>68038182
That is not the only problem. They have many lines of attack against us.
Most postmodern criticism is built upon earlier seminal works. The logic of it is built upon namedropping, citing earlier writers as authorities without any analysis of the fundamental logic behind their ideas. They are accepted as de facto authorities. Foucault said this, Derrida said that, Habermas said this. It's like holocaust """"""""""history"""""""""". Mere acceptance of earlier writers' conclusions without any evaluation of their logical truth value.
And now marxism has achieved what it claims to be criticising. Total cultural hegemony. What is the result of this, again, contradiction? The Other is privileged over the self. What is the logical basis for that? The conclusions of writers who no one will bother reading anymore. It's a vicious circle.
Going back to genealogies. When you actually investigate the source of all these ideas, the fabled Frankfurt School, and try to produce a genealogy for their ideas, what do you get? It is merely a defence mechanism produced by 2,000 years of persecution, not a persecution complex, 2,000 years of very real persecution of jews in Christian society. That is all marxism is. The triggering of the jews' survival instinct. Jews trying to make Western society safe for jews to do jew things. Unfortunately for us, for jews the best form of defence is attack.

Bullshit. Yes it is. Human behavior is hard-wired, no matter how complex and convoluted you want to make it, people are not far off from mindless drones. Most people are unaware that they follow herd mentality. Most men and women are unaware that they are slaves to their biological imperatives. Most people don't have a clue that subliminal messaging in mass media is influencing the way they think and act.
The reason we have a 1% ruling class, a global elite or whatever you want to call them, is because they understand these basic human weaknesses and are exploiting them on a massive scale.

Marxists would say Shakespeare is primarily the product of his time. The logic they use to come to this conclusion is quite sound. But the logic they build on these new premises, reddit logic, is pure sophistry. Such as we can judge Shakespeare by the ideology of our own time, or we can divorce and isolate Shakespeare from the 2,000 years of development of Western culture which led to and facilitated his existence, thought and work. Take Wagner. Wagner is bad and we shouldn't listen to his operas because he was antisemitic and Hitler liked him.

Nice try. I'm not saying Shakespeare definitely didn't work with other people, but the existence of more than one unique, unprecedented and brilliant genius is extremely unlikely according to Occam's razor. Shakespeare's work is the work of one man. Not one man writing in isolation, but part of a 2,000+ year old writing culture, as well as the culture of his own time.

>This myth of "Wealth disparity" has to be debunked. While it's not exactly a myth, it's certainly fallacious the way Liberals talk about it.
>The wealth factor is the only point I agree with the liberals.
Since the industrial revolution, it's completely insincere to say that the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer. These are two completely seperate statements and they intentionally said together to make one seem valid when it is not. The poor are not 'getting poorer'. This can be easily demonstrated by simply looking up the standards of living of the poor in previous time periods. If the poor were poorer than they were prior to the industrial revolution, they would literally be dead. People were living in serfdom, or as peasents. They owned nothing, they were property and had no property of their own. They ate plain bread all their lives and drank stagnant water. The poor today enjoy a plethora of luxuries and have access to resources that ancient kings and queens would go to war over, yet this fallacy is taught to children and liberals in order to make them think that the wealth situation is a zero sum game. To think that it is always going to be 'us versus them'.
I said, only one of those statements were true. And in fact, the rich are getting richer, but only on paper. What's happening is that the middle class is being dissembled, specifically by the left, and with no middle class, it creates the illusion of a giant wealth/income gap. As for the rich getting richer, only on paper, this is due to banker shenanigans completely devaluing currencies world wide. Every year you hear about new block buster record making movies, or profits, and all this bullshit, while at the same time you hear side stories of governmental debt (in all countries) reaching the billions to trillions of dollars. Who the fuck is that money owed to? To no one. The bankers print money and sell it to their own governments. Its smoke and mirrors.

>Gramsci's most influential idea has been what Togliatti called Gramsci's "theory of hegemony," whereby the dominant class in society creates not only its own ideology, but also that of the classes dominated by it—all classes share the ideology of the dominant class. Hence, education and persuasion are important to change the social mass mind, so that political change can evolve. In this sense, it could be said that Gramsci was not only a member in spirit of the Frankfurt School, he was also a structuralist.

The diachronic approach looks at language as a historical process and examines the ways in which it has changed over time.

Saussure’s structuralist approach is synchronic, for it studies language as a system of interrelated signs that have no reference to anything (such as history) outside of the system.

>It is merely a defence mechanism produced by 2,000 years of persecution, not a persecution complex, 2,000 years of very real persecution of jews in Christian society
But it is entirely made up. Prior to the enlightment, jewish communities would intentionally isolate themselves and were ruled internally by rabbis. Jewish religious law prohibits members of the community from harming others, as it is an ideology that heavily favors protectionism and pseduo-nationalism as a defensive mechanism.
Why is this important to understand in the context of jewish persecution? Because such a society does not have the capcity to punish its own criminals when it itself is not the ruling body of their community. Jews can't, without breaking some major taboos, kill other jews.
So what does a community of jews do when they have someone who is a trouble maker? Someone who doesnt conform and also wont leave? They have to rely on non-jewish authority to punish them on their behalf. They have to bend the rules and get a non-jew to do their dirty work. How does a rabbi explain to their community when Goldberg the dissenter gets imprisoned or hanged? He lies. He says "oey vey, the goyim hate us so. they wrongly accused goldberg and killed him. It just goes to show, us jews need to stick together". And that kind of mentality, kept the jewish community isolated and afraid for thousands of years so that rabbis could control them. You still see this kind of mentality today in the orthadox community. You see jewish rabbis raping children, or stealing money, but the community doesnt turn against them. They side with the rabbis who cover themselves, and then victim blame while pretending the accusations of criminal activity are simply wicked goyish antisemetism.

>>68044352
Yeah, well, if you had to Google it, kid, then you're not really up to commenting intelligently on it.
I don't find "Cultural Marxism" to be a very useful analytical tool, generally speaking. Even if you can pin some kind of subversive agenda on Adorno and Co. - and you really can't: Adorno became more and more culturally conservative as he grew older and ended up battling with 68'er students in Frankfurt over the right to teach Goethe - the decisive point is that Adorno's and Horkheimer's books are very rarely read or taught in these US Humanities departments where "cultural Marxism" is supposed to be rampant. Foucault, Derrida, Lacan, Zizek and other writers with their origins in the 1960s / 70s Parisian intellectual scene are MASSIVELY more influential at US colleges and on the "New Left" and those guys really have very little to do with Marxism (Zizek's claims that he does are just fucking laughable). What they taught is actually much more accurately described as "cultural NIETZSCHIANISM". Whereas Marxism rests, whatever its crimes and failings, on a belief that consciousness is determined by a definable REALITY, Nietzsche taught that there is no reality, and that "truth" is created by power. That is what, say, Foucault taught too and it is THIS, not Marxism that we see in all the hysterical SJW crap about "burning the tents of whiteness" and "heteronormativity".
The fact remains that the Guardian opinion piece IS Carl-the-Cuck-level dumb about this whole issue, though. "Cultural Marxism" certainly DOES exist in the loose sense that it is clearly nowadays nearly impossible to work in Academe or in the "highbrow" to "middlebrow" media and not be some sort of left-liberal. This guy's
"Anyone who takes a cool look at the last three decades of politics will think it bizarre that anyone could interpret what’s happened as the triumph of an all-powerful left"
then, is as crazily delusional as Carl the Cuck's "Are you SERIOUS? etc..."

You're claiming to have graduated in English from a top UK university and you had to google to find out who Gramsci and Saussure were and even then came up with completely false information about both?
Or rather, the statement that "Gramsci was practically a member of the Frankfurt School and also a structuralist" is not so much false as nonsensical. It clearly proceeds on such a vague and confused idea of what is meant by both designations that it really doesn't mean anything at all. Did Gramsci believe that conceptual thought was a violence done to the "non-identical"? Did he believe that the sign was not an entity consisting of label and referent but rather signifier and signified? As far as I am aware, he addressed neither issue, so the questions are meaningless.
As to structuralism having nothing to do with history, your idiot green-texting once again makes me wonder how it is even conceivable that you got through a whole humanities degree at.....Cambridge? Warwick?....without having picked up even the most basic information about what structuralism is. Saussure's linguistics may have been synchronic rather than diachronic but are you seriously not aware of the huge, and massively influential school of Structuralist Marxism - Althusser, Balibar, Poulantzas, dozens of others - that grew up on the basis of Saussure's ideas in the 60s and 70s and which, being Marxist, naturally and inevitably addressed questions of history?

>>68047053
>That is what, say, Foucault taught too and it is THIS, not Marxism that we see in all the hysterical SJW crap about "burning the tents of whiteness" and "heteronormativity".
Foucault and the post-structuralists didn't come up with the idea, feeling or perception independently from stucturalist marxists that there is some spooky power oppressing everyone that has to be overthrown. They are a direct development of it. All they do is put it on a more sound (in reality simply more obscurantist) logical basis. They took down the red flags and made it more palatable to Western sensibilities when they reaslied that communism was never going to catch on. That's why poststructuralism is called postSTRUCTURALISM. Because it's genealogically the direct descendant of the line of thought of which the Frankfurt School was a part.
They are not Nietzschean at all. Nietzsche argued that the ubermensch had a right to power by virtue of being more powerful. The postmodernists argue that that power must be torn down because of the very ressentiment that Nietzsche criticised. Foucault was a faggot (a fucking smart one who wrote extremely interesting books). He didn't want the strong man to rule over him and make society safe for the propagation of the white race and the development of Western civilisation. He wanted society to be safe for faggots to do faggot things.

Well, actually, I tell a lie. It isn't embarrassing, because nobody else in this thread has read a line by any of them, so you are probably getting away with it.
But just for truth's sake, a couple of pointers:
(i) "That's why poststructuralism is called postSTRUCTURALISM. Because it's genealogically the direct descendant of the line of thought of which the Frankfurt School was a part."
Yeah, no... Try to get this idea out of your head that you got into it when you googled "Structuralism" half an hour ago that the Frankfurt School had anything to do with Structuralism. Adorno and Horkheimer certainly never read Saussure, Levi-Strauss, or any other Structuralist theorist in any field and consequently were not influenced by them.
(ii) "They are not Nietzschean at all....Foucault was a faggot"
Yeah, no again. Anyone who has had a REAL higher education in the humanities - as opposed to your purely invented one - knows that Foucault was the main factor in the massive revival of Nietzsche studies since around 1970 and built his currently almost unlimitedly influential reconceptualizations of power and its relation to truth and subjectivity on certain ideas of Nietzsche's, an author whom he studied deeply and constantly over a period of many years.
As I say, please leave.

Foucault was as much a Nietzschean as satanists are Christians. He took Nietzsche's concepts and methodologies and used them to come to the opposite conclusions. Am I a hairdresser because I brush my hair in the morning? And I was talking about Gramsci in relation to the idea of hegemony, self-evidently a structuralist idea that was developed by poststructuralists, which I was talking about in the posts that led directly to the post you are referring to. Why the fuck are you namedropping Adorno and Horkheimer you pretentious faggot. Of course marxism and structuralism are related. They are both synchronic studies of culture designed to isolate cultural artifacts from history, in marxism's case in order to destroy them.

>It's literally stated in the founding text of marxism that their objective is the downfall of Western civilisation
Really? Wow. LITERALLY?
Why is it that I have the feeling that if I asked you to cite to me the passage in the Communist Manifesto where it is stated that the aim of communism is to destroy Western civilization you would suddenly turn into a rightist Carl the Cuck and start screeching
"SERIOUSLY? Are you LITERALLY asking me to back up what I am saying?"

Once again.....wow...Gramsci LITERALLY took Saussure's "idea of the sign system" (lol) and applied it to culture, did he?
Um, sorry, but no. Just no. He never did anything even vaguely resembling that. If you can find a single reference to Saussure in any of Gramsci's writings, I will stand corrected. Try reading one of them - just ONE - and maybe you will be able to prove me wrong.

I meant literally in a figurative sense.

God, does this kid never stop with the wild random claims that only reveal the fact that he has never read any work of cultural theory EVER.
"I was talking about Gramsci in relation to the idea of hegemony, self-evidently a structuralist idea that was developed by poststructuralists."
Yeah, um, a "structuralist idea that was developed by post-structuralists".
Kid, PLEASE. Just GO TO BED.
Even if you had managed to write something that wasnt palpably nonsense, you would have been WRONG, just WRONG.
"Hegemony" has been a term in Western political theory since the Greeks. Gramsci's merit was that he was (approximately) the first to recommend it as a strategy for Marxists. But, as I say, Gramsci was not a structuralist, nor did he ever read any "structuralism" in any field (which, in his lifetime, would have been confined to linguistics).
I think your pathetic attempt to scrabble together the semblance of some knowledge from Google may have misled you into mixing up a man called Ernesto Laclau - who died only a couple of years ago and made quite a name for himself splicing Gramsci and post-structuralism in a book called "Hegemony and Socialist Strategy" - and Gramsci himself, who died before Laclau was born.
As I say, if you really have no idea what you are talking about, it is best just to leave it.
Feel free to carry on lying about having degrees from top universities, though.
