Griffin on Today

[frogwoman]

Just googled that and yes it is pretty much exactly that but in reverse and maybe without the antisemitism? Or maybe with. I dunno what percentage of people who utter the phrase 'cultural marxist' have jews in mind when they utter it, probably more than I first thought.

Well it is used by the fash so..

Yep, but then again there are some on the christo/cath, (not far) right who like to bleat on about "cultural marxism" in a kind of UKIPy-type right whinging way...

You know that thing when you’re stuck in a lift with someone and it breaks down and you’re alone, and then he mentions, offhand, that Cultural Marxists are trying to bring down Western civilisation? Yep, I know that situation – because I’m that man. So many of the tenets of the modern Left can broadly be described as Cultural Marxism – opposition to tradition and hierarchy, radical gender politics, the Marxist theory of race, intolerance towards non-orthodox thinkers, the necessity of changing the language, the idea that criminals are victims of society, marriage is oppressive and exploitative, and nations are artificial, imagined communities.

It doesn't mean jews - it's just a total misunderstanding of Gramscis popularisation of the concept of hegemony i.e capitalist society requires an ideological or cultural hegemony to govern/run things in europe rather than simple brute force and dominance and so the left needs to produce its own counter-hegemony. This was turned by the middle class left in the 70s (after his very late translation into english) into the long march through the institutions i.e getting all the best jobs but talking about adorno and the frankfurt school whilst they did it (and the frankfurt shcool rarely if ever went anywhere bloody near gramsci). And then the far right in the universities saw adorno and horkheimer everywhere and concluded this was the achieved hegemony of cultural marxism. It's a ridiculously incoherent lashing out at a long list of clever-clogs stuff that they don't like and haven't understood. That's all it is when the far-right use it.

Eurovision is the high watermark of cultural marxism.

Breivik even used the bit of time he had for closing arguments in his trial to have a go at it. Forgot about that.

UKIP hoovering up the non-nutty anti-immigration vote

Are you sure that's what they're Hoovering™ up?

It is, you're right - they see that as the imposition of socially liberal standards that the mass of people don't accept. See the past posts by that prat dilberto on here over the last few years.

oops - posted in wrong thread

the bnp youth video is not as creepy as the bnp banned party broadcast, it seems to be based on the French fascist 'generation identitaire' 'movement'.

 

[fogbat]

I've certainly seen Cultural Marxism described specifically as Jewish Cultural Marxism in Telegraph comments (home of the proper, self-respecting loon).

 

[Serotonin]

Yeah I've seen far right tie it into Jews/Zionism too, and communism full stop, too

Thanks for that. Talk about chips on shoulders.

 

[malatesta32]

I read the same article by Goodwin re incompetence. How do you think this manifested itself?

been away! briefly, favouritism, giving jobs to people who are clearly inept, parachuting candidates in to places like stoke which was strong in 2010 (?) with councillors then collapsed etc.

 

[malatesta32]

It's already lost. he knows this and he knows he has to rally the hardcore around for the likely criticisms he'll get over the coming weeks. Which is why they have gone back to hard racial language. To keep the racists behind Griffin.

agreed but do you think exBNP voters will go UKIP in the NW? BNP members tended to join then not renew membership hence their rocky membership figures.

 

[malatesta32]

He's always got his cooking skills to fall back on.

READY STEADY COCK!

 

[malatesta32]

'cultural marxism' is a fancy phrase used by EDL etc that means fuck all when used in sentences like 'david cameron and the police are cultural marxists.'

 

[DaveCinzano]

I can't see the vid, but I'm assuming it's not a generous comparison.

It's certainly an excellent syrup

 

[killer b]

I'm coming for you cinzano.

[taffboy gwyrdd]

"cultural marxism" is mostly just something UKIP, EDL etc. say to sound clever.

I was threatened by adam walker once.

Mr Griffin has been the public face of the BNP for more than a decade, during which time the party increased its popular support despite being dogged by allegations of racism

Odd way of putting it.

Odd way of putting it.

Are they waiting to see whether some rich lawyer has backed the party and thrown Griffin out?

Or are they just mad?

 

[DotCommunist]

Odd way of putting it.

out of date way of putting it. UKIP have basically killed them. IMO. Except for the much derided by thier own party 'nutzis'. Its been a sinking ship for at least two years now

 

[nino_savatte]

They know how to pick 'em!

The BNP's website said Adam Walker, a former teacher who this year was struck off the teaching register for life, had been appointed acting chairman after Griffin "stepped aside", two months after he lost the party's only seat at the European parliament in a disastrous set of election results.

My bold.

A British National Party (BNP) activist has taken Education Secretary Michael Gove's office to court in a bid to overturn a lifetime teaching ban.

Adam Walker, of Spennymoor, was struck off for life in 2013 after he was given a suspended sentence for dangerous driving and verbally abused three boys.

The 44-year-old told the Administrative Court in Leeds that the length of the ban was because of his BNP support.

Responding, Rory Dunlop said it was right he faced the "ultimate sanction".

Mr Walker, who now works for two BNP MEPs, was initially given a minimum ban of two years by a National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) conduct panel for verbally abusing the boys and slashing their bike tyres with a knife.

National College for Teaching and Leadership too. How old is he?

That's odd. The case wasn't that long ago IIRC, and I assumed it was the GTC.
