Why do normalfags talk about the left so often, but I've never known one even aware of right?

Noam Chomsky. Perfectly controlled opposition that every anglo knows and trust.
If Chomsky, and the system that has made him what he is, say something, why would you look elsewhere ?
Just notice how easily anons think that Chomsky is "based" and Foucault was btfo'd...

right-wing literature/philosophy i've found to contain an unsuspectingly large amount of esotericism. despite most right-wingers coming off as logic driven, it seems they have a soft spot for this. if you think about how that works on an organizational level, the cohesion just isn't there for a consensus work to emerge. there are too many egos trying to push their own brand of esoteric concepts where small pockets of dissenting opinions never find where they actually agree with each other. i partially believe the nazi mysticism shit to be a psyop to lead right-wingers down a spiritual rabbithole where the focus doesn't become what action to take, but instead what the angle of approach is, and this is limitless.

thus if you have no consensus work, there's nothing for the other side to grab onto. the left famously keeps their witchy shit away from politics except for the most mentally ill women and trannies. they also have a strong deliberately engineered work by which to rally around - whether they fully understand it or not (you can guess what it is)

I'm pretty sure Ellul made his book boring as fuck as a troll.

I think many right wing thinkers begin as atheistic intellectuals who believe in the status quo of their time, then when they become disillusioned, grow to recognize that the things they eschewed - religion, spiritual concepts, symbology - actually matter a lot on a civilizational axis. But, they don't believe in these things in good faith, so they pivot to trying to create one themselves and sell it, to induce their preferred form of social organization or control. Which is kinda funny.

i definitely agree with this. the premise also being that no form of already existing religion or spirituality has brought about the utopia they see the rest of the world standing in the way of.

Manufacturing Consent sucks so fucking much, I was so hyped up to read it and see for myself how insightful and brilliant Chomsky is
It's kinda remarkable how many people think "describing how the world operates one level beyond the surface" is groundbreaking

I view it as inevitable, I was neutrally saying this is how they sell their preferred form. Or attempt to
