Why is the ubiquity of Marxist propaganda in literature

>>8385964
because /pol/ can't read.

>>8385964

OP's premise seems to me to be false. Take at least four camps who regularly consider Marxs' relationship to modern and contemporary literature.

In addition to 1) subsequent Marxist literature, which is of course a literature unto itself, 2) continental philosophers and "philosopher-types" have regularly been citing Marx in the course of doing their own projects since Marx was a thing, even if they don't particularly "like" him or agree with him.

Third, 3) fashionable bougies just such as ourselves regularly consider the same matter. Why else is /lit/ far and away the most conventionally left-wing board on 4chan, and why else are Marx threads regularly created, however much another segment of /lit/'s userbase may deride them as being either stupid or irrelevant? The point is that here we have a third group of people who literally adn regularly do what OP is questioning.

Fourth, take for example American conservatives, and American conservative pundits in particular, for whom it is convenient to correctly point out that a wide array of 20th/21st century academics and writers regularly cite Marx. They too are correctly aware of this tradition, just as the above groups are, although for them it is again usually an opportunity to illustrate the object of their discussion as evil, wrong, irrelevant, etc. I don't think Glenn Beck got hung up on Marx-as-such, but he made a big thing about The Coming Insurrection when it came out, which does cite Marx in a scattershot fashion, and clearly has among other things a conventional, even old-school Marxist ethos.

Why is the ubiquity of /pol/ spam on 4chan never talked about?

>>8387071
>muh /pol/ bogeyman

Back to /r/book, cuck

>>8387090
>>>/int/
4chan's literature board is intended for use by individuals who are fluent in the English language.

>>8385964
Because you'd have to read something like Joyce or Debord and that's not going to happen, not when you have more GRRM books than is healthy.

>>8387071

>never talked about

People in this board complain about it all the time.

>>8387127
thank you for bumping this thread, anon, i'm sure you have good reasons for this thread to remain on the front page that aren't "my opinion is worth more than books"

>>8385964
class struggle existed before marx ever talked about it. but what specifically would you consider marxist propaganda besides class struggle?

>>8387090
>implying /pol/ doesn't raid and spam shit on other boards

>>8385964
Why is the ubiquity of nonsense Nietzsche and Stirner wrote about never talked about?

>>8387211
>Why is the ubiquity of nonsense Nietzsche
because Nietzsche would take that as the highest compliment and find himself undeserving
>and Stirner wrote about never talked about?
Because if you can't comprehend Stirner you probably cannot read a microwave manual or better than a retarded twelve year old.

>>8385964
The rich white intelligentsias in my grad program never shut up about Marx. Still probably one of the most talked about schools of lit crit, though it could just be what is in vogue among the circles I talk to.

>not giving Engels his due credit
>spec-truh
fucking 0/10

If you like Marx read Collective Reflexology by Bekhterev

most literature is bourgeois, uses ideology to reproduce capital,or is just a reflection of the economic base tho.

>>8387399
Thank you for this--super dope!

(((literacy)))

Way to prove that premise correct. Containment board theory was a mistake.

>>8387113
In which book of Joyce's had Marx influenced? I'll admit I haven't slogged through Finnegan's Wake, but the only connection I can make from memory in reference to his other works is some allusion to communism in Leopold's hallucinations during the brothel scene.

>I'll admit I haven't slogged through Finnegan's Wake
>apostrophe

Damn straight. You haven't even skimmed the title.

>>8387720
I'm on my phone, that was auto-correct.
Either way that doesn't delegitimize my question.

I am the author of the post that you replied to, and you seem to have read into my post/mistaken me for a Marxist. Quite the opposite, I simply have an interest in and knowledge of history, and I intend to vote for Donald Trump in November.

>>8387127

>>8388079
Would you suck my dick though? Blowies feel good.

Because its so ingrained into the education system, media and news now that people think that Marxist propoganda is normal

>criticizes capitalism
>is a literal NEET

Was marx a meme?

>>8388146
(yes)

he got dumpster'd by everyone by 1850 but for whatever reason retards kept taking the bait

>>8388146
he got all the money to publish his "intellectual masterpieces" from his rich dad/uncle, sounds pretty fitting and proves why todays millenials like socialism so much

>>8388146
Everything is a meme anon, it's just a question of which ones reproduce better

>>8388094
most of that is a limp humanism though not Marxist communism.

It is not the strongest memes that survive. It is the one most adaptable to change

>>8385964
I'm confused by this thread. Please clarify.
What you mean by "propaganda" and which kind of literature are we talking about? Give me some authors.

I honestly cannot see Marxism (or at least a devotion to it) in many of the 20th century novelists I like.
