Eli Andersen’s Reviews > To Change All Worlds: Critical Theory from Marx to Marcuse > Status Update

What is grotesque is the small deviation from truth as each new generation takes up the originally Hegelian/kantian charge. Generation 1 of Critical Theory had one false presupposition, Generation 2 took the flaw of Generation 1 and added one more, so on and so forth. It makes a lot of sense to see why modern day arguments for CT seemingly come totally out of left field. It is a long history of truth manipulation

I was struggling to understand the doctrine of Marx and then thought to myself, "ah of course I am struggling, he was illogical and did not understand human nature." It's pretty shocking that his ideas ever gained as much traction as they did.
