Motifs[edit]

  1. crisis of capitalism [1]
  2. anarchist historical materialism [1]
  3. Avarice is a historical process [1]
  4. Poor people are created to make you work [1]
  5. Wars prolong artificial scarcity / Wars aim to destroy wealth [1]
  6. We live within visual culture / We live within visual culture, not literary culture [2] -> no. literary culture as defined in this talk is quite alive, and visual culture is not actually that different from it. practically, whenever anybody tries to comment on or evaluate work meant to be experienced viscerally everyone pounds you to learn academic-style analysis until you're a "proper literary critic" with "media literacy skills". literary culture and visual culture are both largely the product of the bourgeoisie.
  7. Prussia started the unification of all of Germany [3] -> now that is a claim.

Additional remarks[edit]

  • I have a suspicion the clips channel is strategically clipping the channel to make it sound more Marxist than it is. I can't fully check this right now. All I know is that if that's what's going on it's almost working — R.D.
  • Commenters tore apart the Konnigsburg video as inaccurate to the history of Prussia.[3] I don't truly know if they're correct but given that the only clear agenda in the comment is "Prussia" I'm inclined to believe them
