@PaulusSilentio “Only revolutionary war is true war for Lenin, because it derives from absolute enmity. Everything else is a conventional game. ... For Lenin the answer was unequivocal, and his superiority among all other socialists and Marxists consisted in his seriousness about absolute ...

@paul_maranne @fingerishatroc1 ... he thought it was true, and precisely for that reason thought philosophical deviations threatened the revolution. Schmitt's whole point is that Bolshevism's political force came from taking its worldview with complete seriousness.

@PaulusSilentio enmity. His concrete absolute enemy was the class enemy, the bourgeois, the western capitalist and his social order in every country in which they ruled. The knowledge of the enemy was the secret of Lenin’s enormous strike power.” Schmitt

A coherent marxist, says Schmitt, would be more committed to developing technology, which would "inevitably" lead to revolution, than to organizing a party.

Likewise, a coherent liberal would be "better served" by being moral and partaking in the market, than ruling.

[Paulus de Silentio @PaulusSilentio]

Carl Schmitt notes that the political force of marxism comes from its political theology and mythology (the great friend-enemy distinction of the global proletariat against the bourgeoisie), in incoherent opposition to its materialism, which leads to total depolitization.

@PaulusSilentio So the act of philosophizing already presupposes precisely what the materialist explanation undermines: that the intellect is capable of knowing what is universally and necessarily true, rather than merely registering the inevitable outcome of bodily motions.

@PaulusSilentio The materialist must argue that reason is merely the effect of material necessity, while simultaneously asking his audience to assent to his conclusions because they are rationally true. Profoundly ironic.

@Orthon_Spaceman @DAKKADAKKA1 Aside from the sushi, the food really isn't that memorable; that’s why many Asian restaurants sell sushi, while the rest of the menu is almost entirely Chinese food rather than Japanese. At least I've noticed that, or at the very least Japanese food that's quite similar to it.

@syphistine What I don't understand is that sometimes they know it is the source but don't care. I knew a girl who knew the source of her intense acne was her birth control, but she never stopped taking it.
