We have already seen the main contradiction of Marcuse's theory: he wants you to believe the Marxist/Hegelian dialectic can be used to free Modern man from his alienation, narrowness, and uncritical mode of existence, when in fact there is no chance of that happening.The Marxist/Modernist regimen was invented to enslave man and to turn him into this herdable beast,so it can hardly also be his ticket to freedom. Marcuse has just circled you back into the pen, you see.

 

Another thing Marcuse doesthat Marx famously did—and that Modern science also does—is muck up every problem on purpose, making it far more difficult than it should be.Reading Marcuse, one would think every problem of government policy or personal enlightenment is infinitely difficult, requiring knowledge of and nods to philosophy, sociology, economics, politics, and all human thought going back to Plato. The nearly pointless jawing is endless, and it never goes anywhere. His chapters and books never lead with a clear and limited problem or end with any sort of legible solution. Rather, we are drawn through a maze of complicated and fuzzy exegesis that never actually rises to cogent analysis. His commentary is never sharp enough to cut through even the smallest gap, and so we trudge on leaving behind us an ever-mounting pile of unchewed and undigested mulch, which is incapable of fertilizing even the smallest acreage.
