LUMPENINTELLIGENTSIA
NOUN
A section of the intelligentsia regarded as making no useful contribution to society, or as lacking taste, culture, etc. Also more generally: the intelligentsia collectively, regarded as worthless or powerless.
Found a single word that defines entirety of Holla Forums

People will bash op for making this post but he's right.
Jackson Ward
Not from Holla Forums or Reddit (mostly frequenting small hobbyst boards on halfchan) but thought that some of you leftiepaulers could use some food for introspection.

This whole board is pretty much all leftist critque and introspection you know.
Ian Rogers
I don't think that applies to me. Where does a shift manager at pizza hut fall?
Luke Wright
>debate and hot takes gets heated

Liam Ramirez
What did Holla Forums mean by this?
Jackson Sanchez
Pizza hut is revolutionary
Bentley Wilson

I like it, it fits like a glove.
Josiah Gutierrez
I don't get what that picture is trying to say.
Jordan Ward
Assmad academics will downvote this thread.
Evan Parker
It's satirising the ridiculous idea that political shitposting on leftypol is seen as a selfless and heroic deed.
Dylan Garcia
I think that you're taking Holla Forums a bit too seriously if you regard them as intelligentsia tbqh. This is an imageboard, chill fam.
Wyatt Smith
The internet is serious business.

No shit. You can't grow anything in an ideological vacuum.
Alexander Barnes
You're an idiot. Communism doesn't boil down to "lol capitalism is bad because it's the system we have now", and the board has loads of anarchists and egoists which are deeply individualist ideologies. Stop being a retard.
Easton Brown
NO, YOU. As in nobody assumes the natural state of capitalism, critically, so its not contrarian to detract from it
Depending on who you mean, you might be right. Practically, it doesn't matter because they manage to hate one another with such vitriol. Either way, you're probably saying this as an ideological critique, so I doubt the veracity of your claim
Check /theory/ or anything having to do with Marxian philosophy. You're actually just pulling this one out of your ass, as a huge amount of leftist philosophical canon is about the derangement and rendering abstract of the subject, which boils down to "individualism is good! as long as it is expressed in these contours" which is basically a deciding principle of modern ideology of capital
fuck off, bud

Still doing objectively more than anyone else right now.
Liam Moore
pretty sure the altright ideologues and various cranks are closer to that definition
Christian Thomas
sure, but Von Mises was regarded as an useless hack before some class and cold warriors raised his ideas into prominence
All you're saying is that Holla Forums is a bunch of people who value reading and being informed and also advocate for unpopular and out of mainstream ideas. This is true, but I don't see how that is cause for any special introspection.
