    Breitbart had it wrong: culture is downstream from politics.

        Politics leaks back into culture.

        The structure of knowledge today is formed in accordance with a deeper political principle. The cultural output—films, television, celebrity, etc.—is pre-determined by politics.

        Disagree, but I’m old fashioned and still believe in “we” the people.

        Downstream from academic ideology perhaps, but not from politics

        For political cultures of Marxist-Gramscian descent, the two actually coincide. What I think you have in mind is that some of today's most effective political tools **used to be** cultural or administrative institutions.

        Great point. The cultural forms themselves have been co-opted, deconstructed, and then deployed for political ends. I think it's very similar to Del Noce's idea of "absorbing ethics into politics." On the other end, ethics and culture become mere factors or even weapons.

        He was right about a different time. Now politics and culture have fused in the absence of religion.
