My friends Mark and Steve explore the connection between Pete Buttegieg and Antonio Gramsci, in my opinion the only really important political theorist since John Locke. Evil, but important (Marx was more of a pagan theological philosopher than a political theorist IMHO). It is worth noting the direct lineage of Marx --> Lenin/Gramsci --> Saul Alinsky --> Hillary/Obama, the latter pair being devout acolytes of Alinsky. Hillary wrote her senior thesis about Alinsky and corresponded/collaborated with him, and Obama was an overt Alinsky operative in his adopted home town of Chicago IIRC.

Antonio Gramsci, in my opinion the only really important political theorist since John Locke.

Marcuse was the philosophical leader of the cultural revolution of the New Left in the United States in the 60's. He was a founding member of the International Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt. His ideas were a synthesis of Marx, Freud, and Hegel.

Antonio Gramsci... the most dangerous man of the 20th century and one of the least known.

Is it possible to link directly to this article? It looks like it is behind some premium content....

“Gramsci was all about applying Marxist theory to culture and cultural institutions — what is often referred to as a ‘long march through the institutions,’ such as film, media, and especially education,””

Gramsci’s strategy has been unbelievably successful. Is there any institution left that the left has not taken over?
