The belief that we are self-conscious agents, we derive this belief in the course of learning what it is to be a daughter, a schoolchild, black, a steelworker, a councillor, and so forth.
But we are self-conscious. It is a quality of the matter.
Reflection is a normal condition.
Matter reflects its own self.
Gets consciousness.
Happens all the time.
Subjectivity is a form of ideology.
In order for a person to identify as a Christian, he must first already be a subject; that is, by responding to God's call and following His rules, he affirms himself as a free agent, the author of the acts for which he assumes responsibility. We cannot recognize ourselves outside ideology, and in fact, our very actions reach out to this overarching structure.
We acquire our identities by seeing ourselves mirrored in ideologies.
>Subjectivity is a form of ideology.
Ideology can be idealist or materialist. Materialist ideology reflects reality better.
Subjectivity is a quality of matter.
Everything is subjective and objective.
What I wrote was only according to Louis Althusser and his structural Marxism.
It seems he doesn't know diamat.
Every matter is subjective. Not only human.
Men both subjective and conscious.
Gaining subjectivity on a higher level.
I am getting distracted by psychoanalysis. I looked into it because it was referred to into lecture series on Marxism. I will ignore it. Back to Hegel for me then.
>everything, absolutely everything is subjective
It actually is. Our senses could be tricking us, the entirity of the world and our feelings could all be constructed by something or someone else.
Yeah we aren't capable of grasping information outside of a subjective experience, if you want to get right down to it
@Deleted User psychoanalysis is fine to study. I see no harm. But there is so much literature on Marxism you can easily read whole life and not be there.
@Konduct Romans 2.7 subjective experience way be in intellectual field beyond your personal senses. Diamat makes it more objective.
>Yeah we aren't capable of grasping information outside of a subjective experience
Marxism makes you capable.
There are many so called Western Marxists like Lukacs who were against Soviet Marxism.
>Marxism
Any they revisionists?
>Lets

*Claps*
I learned about Marxism and I was delusional while a communist.
Objectivity does not just come from an ideology. It comes from trusting your senses and what you can directly observe, and what those you can trust and what they've observed. It's deeper that.
*than that.
A thousand times, and we can never be objective on what is objective and what isn't.
