Topik za prave levicare

Condescension from below watch: Matt Taibbi edition

It's clear the silly Taibbi--who is sometimes an amusing polemicist but is equally obviously a lightweight--did not understand a word he read, and didn't even read the "Repressive Tolerance" essay in its entirety (he doesn't realize that Marcuse is a Millian, and that his dispute with Mill is about the background conditions under which liberty actually produces good consequences).   I do not recommend reading the essay, unless one wants to be reminded that anti-intellectual hatchet jobs are not wholly proprietary to right-wing pundits.

Meni se cini da je Taibbi na cirjakovicevskoj putanji, i ako ne prikoci uskoro, kraj ce biti cirjakovicevski ruzan i tuzan - prezreo je dojucerasnje kolege i istomisljenike (MSM liberale i klintoniste), ali posto mu fali teorijskog obrazovanja, zapravo ne ume da izadje iz binarne podele na kojoj se zasniva voteball (ili kako Cush bese zvao americku politiku), nego je sad headfirst skocio na drugu stranu. Posto desnica proziva Markuzea za identitetsku politiku, on je krenuo da cita Markuzea (kao Cira Konstantinovica) i da u njemu pronalazi izvor sveg  zla.
