Clausewitz: The Genius for War

I was just listening to Jeff Rich’s video, “Russophobia and the Anxiety of American Primacy” and it made me think of my previous post on “demonizing the enemy.” That led to me rereading my posts on propaganda and “The Blob.” For some reason, this chapter came up when searching for “Clausewitz and demonizing the enemy.” It’s an interesting read, and much better than reading Freud. 🤭 On another note, I have yet to finish reading “Lenin’s Notebook on Clausewitz” that I downloaded earlier from this website.

Rainer Shea: Why I’m Pro-Russia & Pro-Rage Against the War Machine: Anti-Imperialists Can’t Win With Idealism

By Rainer Shea – May 12, 2023

When somebody rejects all of the practical paths towards fighting imperialism and class exploitation, on the basis that they feel we should be taking a purer path, then you had better make sure this other path is viable. If it’s not viable, and they’re saying this simply to complain rather than to offer a serious alternative, then you shouldn’t even entertain them. Because what’s the point of validating somebody who has nothing constructive to say? Unless an option is practicable, it’s not worth bringing up.
