🪜⬇️ lore:
one of the critical theory theses i have always used (my thesis) when teaching jane eyre and wife sargasso sea is they are mirrors of one another with regards so social norms. wide sargasso sea, when viewed through the social lens of gender and ability, as become the strange child describing the abled masculine as bertha - the woman hostage to a colonial misunderstanding. when you contrast the historical voices of brontë and rhys - this sort of fascinating social commentary does help unpack and relate the darker shadow truths of our revisionist perspectives on culture. down to english versus american. this thesis presents a sort of cyclical conversation which challenges both historical shadow norms and current ones - and presents an opportunity to use critical theory as a tool for exploring how the historical lens of critical theory in literature gives us new eyes and new depth to old classic texts.... including the ability to challenge those texts with new voice and perspective.

every single video is a man or a man talking about a woman - with some sort of agendized packet discussing gaza ukraine or scandinavia, attached to it in the "next".... and when i searched content on morrison, a box popped up which suggested i search for the topic "revisionist history". is where we are headed tomorrow.

not particularly horrifying or new, but it is something to be aware of regarding gender footprints and offering content which is DESIGNED to force gender issues onto users.

goodnight.
