Are we talking Lockeanism or Leftism
Ohh
Locke.
The 19th century was the turning point for the West.
I would argue it was the Frankfurt school
Neo Marxism
Cultural Marxism
Get phucked liberalism helped create the British Empire
Hehe
Cultural Marxism is so misleading because the Frankfurt School is so much more heavily influenced by Hegel.
The whole idea was that the culture of nations is suppressing the revolution so they must be removed
Hence the west today
Economic liberalism is what made the British Empire great, but beliefs like the tabula rasa and multiculturalism came from Locke.
No
Multi Culturalism came from the Franks
Frankfurt school
Multiculti came from Locke?
Multiculturalism is a liberal idea.
Locke himself did not come up with it.
Talk about a low IQ hot take
Tabula rasa is Lockean though.
Multiculti is a Marxist idea
Indeed
Most liberals before 1900 weren't even okay with multiracialism
Let alone muh melting pot
The entire 19th century is dominated by liberal thought, built on top of Locke. Which means Marx and Hegel.
Hegel moreso.
Locke did not lead to Marx
Locke did not lead to Hegel
No, obviously not. It was the zeitgeist of the 19th century.
Most of that came during the French Revolution
You can't not take everything literally.
Robespierreism
Though I think the English kinda helped inspire France tbh
Other way around
France and Latin make up 50% of the modern English vocabulary
The English already had multiple revolutions and revolts, plus America
Germanic tounge 33%
England never had a truly republican revolution
Cromwell was a king in all but name
