Chris Cutrone is back to answer the pleeb’s questions in Why Lenin and Adorno? Chris Cutrone is the founder of Platypus Affiliated Society and he thinks that for there to ever be a Left again there are certain lessons we must learn from Lenin and Adorno. We’re going to try to figure out what that is in this stream.
Chris Cutrone with Doug Lain on Debord, Lenin, Adorno and Marxism on history (video recording)
This week’s Pop the Left was set up as a conversation about Guy Debord and the errors of the Situationist Internationale but ended up being a conversation about the sexual revolution, Roe vs. Wade, and the question of the party. As always, Chris Cutrone pushes against the current limits of “left” politics on this week’s Pop the Left.
Chris Cutrone with Theory Pleeb on “Anti-Left Marxism”(video and audio recordings)
“Two Marxists walk into a bar… one thinks the left is dead and needs to be brought back, the other thinks it is inseparable from the Democrats and must therefore be killed. Happy birthday, Karl Marx! A livestream response from Cutrone to Cryptofash in lieu of a debate… Pleeb will play interviewer and occasional devil’s advocate so that we can hopefully learn something.
