Why does situationist seem to get such a bad rap around here?

Why does situationist seem to get such a bad rap around here?
It seems to be either written off completely or unkown. I started talking about cadres in a thread and nobody knew wtf I was talking about.

People seem to be fond of detournement. Tell me about your cadres, OP.

They were left communists and the precursors to the ultra-left, and this place doesn't like either of those too much.

why doesn't Holla Forums like left-coms?

It's the god damn Bordigites.

Democratic socialists, Ancoms, and the like hate them because their ideology is a constant reminder of how much time those people waste with their "direct action" bullshit

Because they oppose parliamentarism, activism and opportunism, which to them roughly translates to the do nothing maymay we all know and love (I know I vicariously enjoy it at least).


"Bordigism" was never a thing and never will be, and the term is used by left communists as a pejorative for a dogmatic adherence to the Italian left of Bordiga, just as "Councilism" is used to describe dogmatic council communists (see: leftcom.org/en/articles/2010-03-17/centralised-party-yes-centralism-over-the-party-no, marxists.org/archive/damen/1970/bordiga-obituary.htm).

So what should people do according to them?
