Multi-Cultural Oikophobic Guilt-Pride - The Decline of the West thru NeoRacist Self-Criticism

Critical Theory - Key Driver of Oikophobia
And of course, the ideal form of ideology of this global capitalism is multiculturalism, the attitude which, from a kind of empty global position, treats each local culture the way the colonizer treats colonized people—as ‘natives’ whose mores are to be carefully studied and ‘respected’. That is to say, the relationship between traditional imperialist colonialism and global capitalist self-colonization is exactly the same as the relationship between Western cultural imperialism and multiculturalism: in the same way that global capitalism involves the paradox of colonization without the colonizing Nation-State metropole, multiculturalism involves patronizing Eurocentrist distance and/or respect for local cultures without roots in one’s own particular culture. In other words, multiculturalism is a disavowed, inverted, self-referential form of racism, a ‘racism with a distance’—it ‘respects’ the Other’s identity, conceiving the Other as a self-enclosed ‘authentic’ community towards which he, the multiculturalist, maintains a distance rendered possible by his privileged universal position. Multiculturalism is a racism which empties its own position of all positive content (the multiculturalist is not a direct racist, he doesn’t oppose to the Other the particular values of his own culture), but nonetheless retains this position as; the privileged empty point of universality from which one is able to appreciate (and depreciate) properly other particular cultures—the multiculturalist respect for the Other’s specificity is the very form of asserting one’s own superiority.

 - Slavoj Zizek, "Multiculturalism, or, the Cultural Logic of Multinational Capitalism"

Only Democrats don't critique other cultures.  They only oikophobically criticize their own using the tools of Critical Theory.  They thereby sacrifice their "universalist" moral position to group cohesiveness, to not offending members of other cultures.  It's their "unwritten rule", one that sustains the group.  They only speak "affirmatively" (never critically) of non-white cultures.  It's "affirmative action" for non-Western, non-white groups.  Like #MeToo, you must ALWAYS believe (and never question) the women, or you're not part of the #MeToo Movement.

And why does the Capitalist Establishment, Democratic AND Republican, embrace Multi-Culturalism?  Cheap COMMODIFIED Labour.  And a great weapon with which to impose "Western Values" like "Muh, Democracy Multi-culturalism!" on the World.... It's "Good for the Capitalist Imperium" and justifying a Jus Abutendi commodification of Labour!

^^Really HATES the Non-Neoliberal Left^^

?

I thought you said I was a neoliberal?

You are. Slavoj isn't. He's Left, not Center Neoliberal Left like you.

Both of your assessments are incorrect.

Obamacare has officially failed. It took 15 years, but it has MOST DEFINITELY failed.

Remember, "If you liked your doctor, you didn't get to keep your doctor.? Well that was a Load of Crap.

If you liked your healthcare plan, you didn't get to keep your healthcare plan.

Obamacare didn't bring down costs a single penny.
IT NEVER HAPPENED!
Obama lied.
Remember these geniuses telling saying that you had to pass the bill, to find out what was in the bill?

Joe Conservative said...

Experience says otherwise.

Did tuition subsidies ever bring down the cost of education?

Your experience of ignoring what I write and believing what you want.

You not a neoliberal in the same sense you not an anti-racist. You're a neoliberal ALLY in your support of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris (both Neoliberals). And you're a neoracist ALLY in your support and non-criticism of black racists who seek unfair racial advantage through DEI (ie - Liz Warran).

Joe Conservative said...

You SAY you're not a neoliberal or racist. Then you ALLY yourself with them and refuse to criticize them. Case in Point: The war in Ukraine is a NEOLIBERAL War, and you support it. It's a CAPITALIST WAR for access to Ukrainian natural resources oil/gas/rare earth minerals.

Joe Conservative said...

And when neoliberal Democrats screw Bernie out of the nomination, you turn around and support neoliberals like Hillary/Joe. That makes YOU a neoliberal

Joe Conservative said...

In the Gaza war, I criticize Palestinians for their genocidal intention against Jews, and I criticize Jews for their desire to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Israel. I'm an equal opportunity critic. You're a partisan one.

Joe Conservative said...

btw - I'm also a realist who when choosing between lesser evils, and choose ethnic cleansing over genocide. What I don't do is deny that ethnic cleansing is Israel's intent.

💡 The Blogger’s Claim.

> “The war in Ukraine is a NEOLIBERAL War, and you support it. It’s a CAPITALIST WAR for access to Ukrainian natural resources oil/gas/rare earth minerals.”

Problems with this claim:

Misattribution: The war was initiated by Russia, not by Western neoliberal policymakers.

Resource Grab Narrative: While Ukraine has valuable resources, there is no evidence that Western nations invaded Ukraine to seize them. In fact, they did not invade at all—Russia did.

False Equivalence: Supporting Ukraine’s right to self-defense ≠ supporting neoliberalism or resource exploitation.

[End]

btw, donald trump made a deal for Ukraine's minerals. Seems to me that you're admitting donald trump is a neoliberal. And (via your support for donald trump) that you are also a neoliberal.

Minus:... and I criticize Jews for their desire to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Israel.

You did not, liar.

In the Gaza war, *I* criticize Hamas for their genocidal intention against Jews, and *I* criticize the NuttenYahoo government for their desire to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Israel.

Your comments = 🐂💩

Bernie Sanders urged his supporters to vote for HRC and JRB. He supported them. Bernie Sanders isn't a neoliberal and neither am I.
