So what are dialectics exactly? Are they evil? Are they used to undermine the status quo? Are they useful? Will I gain magical powers if I learn dialectics? Someone please give me some advice. Also what does it mean to be "undialectical?"
Interestingly this lying magic dialectics enables is why the great polymath Goethe did not like Hegelian philosophy. Apparently in their private talks Goethe asked if the method could not be used to turn truth into falsehood, and falsehood into truth. Hegel's only reply was that it could, but one had to be an exceptionally evil person to use it for such a thing.

No powers. No, but they will help your brain grow from a puny idealist to a strong materialist. You are undialectical if you do not see things as constantly changing and impacted upon by other things/themselves. An undialectical opinion would be "Science and politics are seperate, and a scientist should not speak of politics". This is both ignorant of dialectical change where science and politics will effect each other (along with other things ofc!) and an example of bourgeois idealism where things are seperated to ignore their true interactions/existences. If you look at something dialectically, you look at it, and it's influences, past and present. You do not see things as absolute and unchanging. These are dialectics. Yes, bourgeois hate dialectics because they challenge the idealist absolutes that the bourgeois use to camouflage the true nature of things. Yes, as it is useful to see things as they are.

thesis + antithesis = synthesis Evil is subjective. On the contrary dialectics are neutral, they are simple and materialist No, they explain how it is overthrown through contradiction and through struggle As a means of analysis, undoubtedly. They are purely scientific Absolutely not, they are materialistic in nature, not occult Its a meme in general, means you are being dumb. But if used correctly it means you aren't analysing things properly within the framework of dialectics, you aren't analysing competing interests struggling against one another, resulting in change.
Wow top notch analysis, here's your you, now fuck off with your trite garbage.
