One of the core tenets of Infrared's theories is that most [[Communism|Communists]], in the West, miss the sense of objectivity that made Eastern [[Marxism|Marxists]] successful. The reason for this is that most [[Communism|Communists]] undialectically assume, often unconsciously, that the contradiction that gives rise to [[Socialism]] and [[Communism]] is between the world and its injustices and the socialist/communist experiencing this, while a principled [[Marxism|Marxist]] position would be that the contradiction is inner to the object itself. Instead of trying to understand the material reality of the people, which is the basis of every communist state, western communists are stuck in an abstract idealized form of it. | One of the core tenets of Infrared's theories is that most [[Communism|Communists]], in the West, miss the sense of objectivity that made Eastern [[Marxism|Marxists]] successful.

Another idea of the [[Infrared|Infrared collective]] is that western thinking cannot understand the deeper truth of [[Marxism-Leninism]] because of its origins in cartesianism, and that it's only through thinkers like Heidegger (and others influenced by him like Kojève and [[Dugin]]) that [[Marxism-Leninism|Marxist-Leninist]] experiences can be truly understood in the west. | Another idea of the [[Infrared|Infrared collective]] is that western thinking cannot understand the deeper truth of [[Marxism-Leninism]] because of its origins in cartesianism, and that it's only through thinkers like Heidegger (and others influenced by him like [[Kojève]] and [[Dugin]]) that [[Marxism-Leninism|Marxist-Leninist]] experiences can be truly understood in the west. | ||
Infrared coined the term [[Anglo Box]], which refers to a way of thinking, relating to English philosophy, consisting of the reduction of the meaning of words to a fixed form, like a dictionary definition, which leads to the dogmatic thinking of [[BreadTube|BreadTubers]] like [[Vaush]]. This kind of philosophical illness is directly opposed to the dialectical method of [[Karl Marx|Marx]], [[Friedrich Engels|Engels]], [[Vladimir Lenin|Lenin]] and the other prominent [[Marxism-Leninism|Marxist-Leninist]] thinkers. <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxGIdrXAGyw&t=140s Vaush knows NOTHING about socialism] - youtube</ref> | Infrared coined the term [[Anglo Box]], which refers to a way of thinking, relating to English philosophy, consisting of the reduction of the meaning of words to a fixed form, like a dictionary definition, which leads to the dogmatic thinking of [[BreadTube|BreadTubers]] like [[Vaush]].
