One of the prevailing theories in the circles of the Western intelligentsia, which has the aim of disarming youth and students from having their own outlook and taking the working class as their leader, is postmodernism. Its defining feature is that often, unless one is taking a class on theory, this theoretical underpinning of a significant amount of study material is not even defined. That is, statements in the light of postmodernism can easily be taken as fact. Postmodernism declares that there is no such thing as objective laws governing society, that all of human history has been a clash of various "discourses," the written and spoken word -- sometimes oppressing, dominant, sometimes oppressed, dominated. In the final sense, this worldview does not see class as determining social relations, but rather language. So, instead of the raging struggle between proletariat and bourgeoisie, we have various discourses, and sometimes the postmodernists are forced to concede class conflict exists, but only as a difference in "discourse" between worker and capitalist -- the former is not oppressed by the latter and their prevailing social relations, but by words, only in that the two have conflicting "identities." Class struggle, as an "identity," is seen in the same light as "opposing" discourses of "man vs. woman," "black vs. white," "gay vs. straight" and so on. This reactionary ideology is thus, logically, the birthplace of identity politics -- the idea that one should look at the world merely through their "own" narrow "identity." It is such narrow politics that leads to the vulgar hatred of modern universalism and the worship of everything tribal, feudal, slave and primitive. Of course, these hypocritical postmodernist theoreticians will never give up their fat salaries to join the working class, never mind the societies they worship.

In the last sense, postmodernism, as borne out by Siraj and genuine Marxist-Leninists of all countries, is a conservative and reactionary outlook. In opposition to it, we proclaim that there are objective laws governing society -- that by virtue of the contradiction between social production and private appropriation of surplus value, the proletariat is bound to constitute itself the nation, emancipating itself and all of society from antagonistic vestiges. In every situation, we insist that there is a key link, and that to divide society on the basis of anything other than that link is diversionary.

Good quality for the price

Seamless floating shelves that look and feel great. I opted to use different drywall anchors since I didn't trust the ones that came with the product. I have bad drywall and no studs where I was mounting so that doesn't fall back onto the product. The shelves are true to size and have held up great. The shelves themselves aren't too heavy so it leaves some room to add weight onto them. I used the 30in long shelf on the left and 24in long shelf on the right to create a nice corner shelf. There are additional screws on the bottom the keep the shelves from moving off the bracket.

Beautiful for decor, not great for anything with heft.

They are easy to install and exactly as pictured. I find them to be lovely and uniform, and they can't with proper instructions and even extra pieces. I took away a star because they are described as "heavy duty" use, but the dowels used to mount the shelves are flimsy. Mine are mounted on combo of studs and drywall, the plates are secure and not going anywhere. The problem is the dowels themselves that fit into the corresponding holes of the shelf: they bend easily. I put three books and bookends on one shelf and watched it tip down. I did attach the bottom screws into the dowels I secure the shelf to the mounting brackets, but that's not going to save any items from sliding off as it bends down over time. I pulled the books immediately and decided to use these for decor only rather than any practical use. The stock photo suggesting lining these shelves with glass jars filled with flour, rice, and lentils is a terrible idea.
