Edward Dutton (the Jolly Heretic) argues against the idea that the far left (or far right, for that matter) is "Gnostic". I tend to agree. The pseudo-Christian meme or metaphor seems more relevant here.

Marcus och Malcom hade något liknande resonemang i avsnittet "Gnåååsis". Man var dock inne på att kryptognistiskt tankegods genomsyrade tidsandan i stort och att tecken på detta finns i praktiskt taget alla nutida ideologier.
ReplyDeleteIbland undrar jag om poängen med det gnostiska memet är att undvika att kritisera kristendomen och/eller den sekulära framstegstanken...
