Capitalism is the dominant paradigm, not Critical Theory. Archived Message Posted by dan on April 24, 2019, 6:27 am, in reply to "Re: Zizek presses Peterson. " where are the Marxists"??" Marx saw capitalism for what it is - a power struggle. We are more or less in the same place, being abused by owners, as at the time of Marx writings. Rejecting Marx effectively hides from view an excellent description of why we are where we are. Which, I guess is why Peterson does it. Don't read Marx, don't read Marx, Marx is diabolical. You are tilting at windmills. Cheers, dan Message Thread: | This response ↓ Zizek presses Peterson. " where are the Marxists"?? - Adamski April 24, 2019, 2:11 am Re: Zizek presses Peterson.
