There are people on Holla Forums RIGHT NOW who haven't read Althusser's Ideology and Ideological State Apparatuses
Tyler Hall
Alexander Evans
what you gonna do about it, choke me?
Justin Reyes
but it's so long and reading is boring
Henry Edwards
We could read Althusser or we could make jokes about how he strangled his wife…
Nathaniel Nelson
Yes.
Just read the Wiki article then at least. Far from as long and gives you the gist of it.
Jaxon Flores
There's not enough Althusser memes either way, so reading him and making structuralism/critique of ideology memes would be very welcome.
Jordan Ward

Eli Wilson
This is really all the Althusserian/structuralist maymays I have. Really troubling, and I hope you comrades can help me do something about it.
Cooper Russell
I'm reading his "Marx in his Limits" right now. TL;DR: Marx fucked up Capital.
Angel Sanders
That Althusser thought this is already quite apparent in his "Reading Capital". I think it's in large part because of all the new challenges to Marx's orthodox (of his time) materialist out look that Althusser's structuralist materialism brings to challenge.
Evan Taylor
Gramsci's theory of Hegemony and Althusser's work on State Apparatuses & Ideology are invaluable concepts for anyone. They legitimately help to make the world make substantially more sense. If you aren't an illiterate memer, I sincerely urge you to read up on these concepts.
Joshua Lopez
Where to start with this?
Isaac Hall
fucking structuralists…Do you even Derrida?
Landon Diaz
Never go full post-structuralism, son. Only a whole lot of nothing and posturing can come from that stuff.
Jace Allen
I heard on Holla Forums he made shit up for academia while there was this one Marxist who debunked him hutnno one listened.
only after he died it was clear he was bullshitting
Alexander Butler
nah, fam….he cool, just French
Tyler Green
Someone better find out who/what you were talking about then.
Gavin Nguyen
Is wife killing acceptable under communism?
Anthony Gutierrez
Why not? The brocialist-communist future promises us that if a bitch be talking shit that bitch be needing a cap on her ass.
Ethan Miller
How is Derrida related to any of this?
Looks like bashing PoMo's without ever reading a word of what they wrote is the new cool thing to do.
Jacob Davis
If you're interested in Althusser's account of the tragic incident: vkdoc.tk
Joseph White
Gramsci is utter cancer to read. Might be easier to just read a secondary source describing his ideas. I cut these pages from a pdf I happen to have lying around which briefly speaks about Gramsci and some additional concepts building upon hegemony. Probably a more detailed explanation out there if you look harder, but reading this should hopefully clue you in to the basic ideas if you weren't aware of them.
Adam Ward
Looks good, thanks, but this is an excerpt. What's this originally from?
Kayden Cruz
Marxism and Literature by Raymond Williams, which is too large a file for me to upload.
James Anderson

Parker Reyes
Only read his The Modern Prince (à la Machiavelli) and found it really mundane.
Hudson Sanchez
There's a smaller 6MB version available on libgen too: gen.lib.rus.ec
Link to the root libgen search engine; that mirror is blocked in certain places but not the search.
Jaxon Allen
Hit refresh. Are you britbong? Some ISPs block libgen. Try a proxy.
Leo Bailey
The cancerous part is finding a relevant bit of text on whichever subject you're interested in within the disorganized mess of his ten years of prison notes.
Xavier Taylor
Oh yes, the book was just that, with bits of interests on the every-day questions of communist organization. Was a very unsatisfying read.
Brayden Harris
Gtfo and read some hegel
Levi Howard
What do you mean by "post-modernist" and "relativist?"
Elijah Martinez
Bumping.
Kayden Murphy
