I haven't listened to that many episodes but I'm behind the general effort, and I appreciate that they're the only leftist community on reddit that doesn't have a stick up its rear end.

mike12345 posted:What about Althusser and "Ideology and Ideological State Apparatuses"? Isn't that more or less the interesting bits of Gramsci, more pronounced? if althusser is a structuralist still ultimately wedded to classical modalities of production, mouffe and laclau are post-structuralists (without being textualists) who try to rewrite classical stageism altogether. the results take them quite a bit far afield from the classical texts but they provide an interesting way out of certain basic problems.

Sincerely this. /r/chapotraphouse is actually good and doesn't do ridiculous ideological purity bullshit. If you constantly call every woman a oval office or be a TERF or something, you'll be banned, sure, but just saying something's stupid (or even RETARDED!) won't. You can get a buncha the language police on your case from time to time, but it's less egregious than how /r/latestagecapitalism will literally ban you for saying something's idiotic/moronic/stupid/dumb/lame. Because ABLEISM.

I'm a pretty big Chapo fan, but I cannot figure out what'll be different between the book and podcast, so I will probably not be buying the book.

Chapo Trap House is my source of vocal fry, uptalking at the end of every single sentence and using "like" as every third word.

That Robot posted:Actually chapo trap house attracts the worst people, and I'm saying this as a leftist. ThatBasqueGuy posted:who the gently caress is actually gonna keep paying for their podcast let alone buy the book lmafo All of those quotes are accurate and I agree with them. Chapo Trap house is good to listen to if you've never read a book with political themes or have only scratched the surface on political theory. They tend to give a very PolSci 101 level take on things, which does them and their listeners a disservice imo. Instead of giving the people making 5 figures apiece per month more money you would be better served to buy some general books about political theory and ideals. Wealth of Nations and the Communist Manifesto will give you a better understanding of left wing and right wing politics than listening to all of Chapo can give you.

I'd be interested to hear The Robot clarify what he means by "attracts the worst people"... no clue what he actually considers that to be. Anyway, after binging on the Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson episodes because of this thread, I have to say they were funnier than I expected, so I assume I'm officially one of the bad leftists instead of one of the good ones now.

Hi, Brooklyn millionaire Marxist here.You guys ever hear of the Labor Theory Of Value? Dont be a MAGA CHUD smoothbrain and donate to your favorite podcast to hear 20 more rants from a fat jobless beardo how liberals are feckless do nothings who are normalizing fascism whereas the true revolutionary shits his pants on the train. Bernie would have won!
