The Ideological Inversion of the Greco-Judeo-Christian Civilization in a Romantic-Marxist Dystopia
Description
We live in an era of profound cultural disorientation. Public debate has collapsed into disqualification. Institutions no longer function as they should. And whoever dares to name what is happening risks being branded as a fascist or worse.
Culture of Delusion is a systematic and confronting analysis of how Western civilization arrived here — and why.
Cultural analyst Harm Timmerman argues that the dominant ideology of the West is Romantic-Marxist in character: a fusion of nineteenth-century Romanticism and Marxism that went mainstream in the 1960s and has since colonized every institution of Western society. Through Gramsci's Long March Through the Institutions, that ideology achieved cultural hegemony — to the point where it is no longer recognized as ideology at all.
Drawing on memetics, cultural history, and the myth of Osiris, Seth and Horus, the book maps twelve defining characteristics — six Romantic, six Marxist — showing how they manifest across every domain of contemporary life: from climate extremism and the disrupted sexual marketplace, to anti-Christianity and the permanent rhetoric of victimhood.
