Post-Jefbolism is an "ideology".

Essentially, this is my attempt to combine post-structuralist and schizoanalytic study of signs and psychology with Marxism. I am influenced primarily in my writings by Baruch Spinoza, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels , Friedrich Nietzsche, Anton Pannekoek, Wilhelm Reich, Jacques Lacan, Paul Mattick, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari , Guy Debord, and Antonio Negri.

The Spontaneity of the Proletarian War Machine

The proletariat are not silent and passive players in their struggle, they do not sit back and only act in reaction to the actions of capital, not at all. On the contrary, they play a much heavier role as the slayers of capital and its bourgeois personifications, they are active participants indeed, and especially in such a condition of chaos and uncertainty. This is something we have ignored, and no longer can we. In order to analyze Capital and the modern course of class today more clearly, we must look through the eyes of the proletarian.

A new development has taken place in the last century, something which the Autonomists, the Worker-Anthropologists, the Situationists, and others have all examined closely. This development is that of proletarian spontaneity, and the proletariat as a war machine, one that capital must crush. What is spontaneity? Spontaneity in this context represents the liberatory and chaotic potential of freed and nomadic desire, molecular desire specifically being produced which allows for such an escape to happen. Through the various forms of labor organization of the 19th and 20th century, the activated proletariat stood its ground against capital and its totality over society. It has been made clear by these proletarian struggles, their struggles to affirm themselves against capital, that the proletariat is an irreducibly autonomous force, one capable of standing up to the fiery dragons of the current order. However, the problem seems to be the production of revolutionary desire, in our society were conservative and reactionary molar libido reign supreme, a result of capitalist totality over desire in of itself. What is to be done to unchain the war machine?

Our post-modern world is a chaotic and even violent one. Every year, you here about violence and war here, an economic crisis here, nuclear threats here, the globe is in a tough position right now, it seems. Contrarily however, capital seems to be at its strongest. In the face of the forces of the nomads that want it dead, of anti-capitalist affirmation, capital is forced to either adapt or die. This is the logic behind the many shifts in social organization of society in the past century, from societies of discipline to control, from national to international. We can understand this better through Mario Tronti's analysis of the cycle of composition, the partial escapes from capital and the partial subjugating by capital. When the proletarian affirmed himself and escaped for a short while from the clutches of capital, capital could not destroy it completely, it could only counterattack by attempting to stratify the desires of the proletariat more and more through the further coding of social life, strangling spontaneity. It must do this in order to survive, it is in its self-interest to do such a thing out of pure necessity to. Capital therefore develops through this process increasing abilities to suppress the spontaneity of its slaves.

Such a force as the workingmen is directionless in the modern century, it has no push or drive. It has the anger, the bloodthirst, the passion and desire, to reign terror on the institutions which repress it, of course! However, it has nothing to unlock such passion and anger in its current state, it has only been able to do anything within the roadblocks and the confined territories that capital allows it to, and through only the means capital lets it. Spontaneity and the autonomy of such unconstrainted desire are therefore not allowed to be produced, and when it is produced, it is swiftly crushed by capital or coopted, to make it to where no war machine can develop from the proletariat. Molar desire is therefore allowed to reign over the dominion of libidinal investments, it is pro-conservative at its core when it exercises the unconscious drives for repression of desire. Spontaneity and molecular libido on the other hand, is inherently revolutionary. It is the embodiment of the destructive tendencies of desire. Spontaneity is the embodiment of the war machine, and specifically its chaotic and liberatory nature. It is very clear that what is to be done is the freeing of the production of molecular desire in order to unlock the spontaneity and decoding nature of it.

On the Oedipal Family

Our modern analysis of desire and on ideology is deeply flawed and reductive. The question of why individuals desire their own repression has been a contentious subject for hundreds of years. From Spinoza to Marx to Freud to Reich, we have asked this question over and over. And yet, we are stuck in abstract and reductionist nonsense when talking about this. For example, Marx and Engels' thesis was that the repression of the individual was a simple ideological false consciousness, an ideology that alienated the proletarian from liberating himself. It is much more complex than this however. It is the proletarian himself who desires his own repression, who gives himself up as sacrifice to his god, Capital.

How is this possible? Why would the proletarian fight and die for his enslaver? Such a question came back to prominence with the emergence of the fascist movements of Europe. Millions attracted by the mystic petit bourgeois conception of the nation and the state, willingly repressing themselves for such an ideal. The proletariat and their movement, the war machine against capital, had been swept and coopted by the Fasci, its resources used to fuel the statist machine and maintain itself and the iron grip of Capital.

The question is how people are inclined to actually do such a thing. Desire for Deleuze and Guattari is something spontaneous and affirmative in its natural state. But under for example capitalism, it must be coded and strictly controlled in order to benefit and not turn on Capital. It does this through the machines and territories of society, which act to control and maintain the status quo. Capital must discipline human desire to be fit its own desire, through the production of molar desire. The school, the factory, the prison, the hospital. They all exist to codify this submissive desire into us. But the most important one even today is that of the family.

The family exists as the primary radiator of repression upon of the desires of the individual, where this self-desiring for the enslavement of desire originates from, which then carries on into the school, the factory, the prison, etc. The family has, of course, existed before capitalism, its origin being the division of labor between and reinforced through gender. The modern nuclear family arose however, as a consequence of the mass territorializing of old feudal relations by Capital, the family relations of old destroyed and turned into nothing more than those suitable for capitalist reproduction.

Wilhelm Reich in his book "The Mass Psychology of Fascism" explains this well, when he shows how future proletarians, the children of these slaves to Capital, are infected and made to sexually repress themselves, repressed to fuel absolute loyalty to the ideals of militarism, the fatherland, authority, the brotherly spirit of the great nation. Self-repression of sexual desire is transmitted through the parent into the child, preparing the desiring subject for life in the school, in the factory, and elsewhere. For Deleuze, the family acts as the introduction to the cruel and harsh world of control, it exists to zombify the individual into a delicate servant of capitalist consumerism and production, because it codifies certain behaviors into the individual, including codifying them into an abstract subject of power. It exists to produce subjects for Capital to market to and psychologically control. The nuclear family, the Oedipal family more accurately, acts as the reproducer of the conservative subject, of the molarity of desire under capitalism. For Deleuze and Guattari, this goes much further, because the nuclear family as a power relation underlies the entire Oedipus complex, and ultimately justifies it justifies the family, by placing the development of the child as some sort of necessarily familial thing, enforcing the role of the subject, enforcing the traditional role of the family, and ultimately justifying the iron fisted hammer of the police state. It is the ultimate justification for Capital, the state, patriarchy, power, and control; even in its most progressive and liberatory aspects, such reinforcement of such nonsense is ultimately conservative in the end.

In the new age, Capital now reigns as totalizing, something which has expanded past expectations, it is now a producer of life itself, its master. The desiring subject is something manufactured into something that is totally submissive and even consciously supportive of Capital. It is through this that family in this new capitalist order based around what Foucault called "biopower", acts as the beginning stage for the subject to become conforming to capitalist standards and values, those of consumer society, that acts to artificially create the next generation of proletarians to slave away in the workshop, the school, the barracks, and everywhere Capital manifests itself in. The bourgeois game of reproduction is no longer and has never been purely economic or political, it is a psychological game of control. A cruel game of the suppression of spontaneity, the family as its primary weapon of repression.

  • Glorified Communism () - Very cool guy with very cool beliefs, perhaps the closest to me in terms of philosophical and political matches. I have little to disagree with.
  • Kimno Thought () - Even with our political and philosophical break with each other (me embracing post-structuralism and spontaneity), you're still quite good in your foundation and in your beliefs, though obviously with typical classical Marxian limitations, alongside your humanism.
  • Venatrixism () - My student! Very much like the above, but less well-read.

Gem

  • Nurulisme () - Very good analysis of for example, capital as a deity, which I for the most part agree with, along with a few other things. My main problem though is how you cling on to psychoanalytic and Hegelian nonsense, which makes it very confusing when you claim to be a Deleuzian at the same time, but otherwise fine.

  • Proletariat builderism () - I despise the Christianity, the Platonism, and Natural Law nonsense, otherwise quite hard to follow along due to the contradictory and confusing influences.
  • Alstūdism () - Very cool as a person, but this blind petit bourgeois romanticism that you and the rest of the fascists hold dear is indeed vile, with it encouraging the self-desiring of his or hers' own repression by the abstract ideal of the "nation" and by such an ideal's militaristic fury.
  • Meowxism () - Incredibly contradictory beliefs, and you've shown yourself to not understand anything about Deleuzian or post-structuralist theory, let alone your own movement's theory. Fine person, however.
  •  BERNHEism () - What saves you from being in brimstone is how honestly you present your political and economic views, for you seek only efficiency and stability no matter what for capitalism, your politics stripped of any democratic illusions of rights and the people's power, something that I very much so can respect. You're also a very good friend of mine, so there's that.
  • Pantheonism () - Here it is, the petit bourgeois socialist who wishes to relieve society of the dangers of big capital so the small capital of the petit bourgeoisie can hang on for just a short while, a reactionary at heart who seeks to entrench the tyranny of the guilds of small producers like what was in medieval times, all for the sake of some vague anti-capitalism.

Brimstone

  • Brazilian Liberalism () - Pathetic and delusional priest of capitalism, nothing much to say.
  • Tedcruzfan Thought () - Libra, you're unfunny and retarded, and this is the greatest showcase of this.

  • Voidvill Rajandeep () - I'm sorry but what the actual fuck is thi-
    • - Blud doesn't even recognize one of his students 💀
      • - I don't know what you expect from a demented old man as myself.
        • - What do you understand or comprehend at least of my thought?
          • - The actual concepts on there I get, I just don’t get how they all fit together into one.
            • - I thought I had finally made something sensible/understandable, but eh, thanks for giving me a writing style that works and frees the insides even if it is not really essays
