"The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words."
— Philip K Dick
Discussion
It's all about labeling people's ideas, just scratching the surface and not digging deeper to understand their real motives and the true meaning of their words.
For all the theoretical disputes on platonic ideas, in the realm of realpolitik, the capitalism-socialism dichotomy and contrapposto are just another game played by the Powers That Be to manipulate, divide et impera the proles from behind the curtains.
Doublespeak, at its essence.
exactly. dichotomy nowadays, aka neoliberalism, davos, monarchy and feudalism yesterday, roman empire last week, technofeudalism tomorrow with stakeholders. divide, conquer.
btw, despite being formerly written as a reply, with only the k dick quote, this note has nothing to do with nostr:nprofile1qqsw8fveyjfne8ul9hurgjg9t6ectrc5sr7ap30dh9wlpzlde5hxvfqhhpgkd's note. didn't even notice what I was doing, lol.

-- ideias velhas, socialismo pee pee pee. tem que abraçar o novo, ideias novas, estado mínimo, milei é meu líder.
-- o conceito de minarquia é literalmente 150 anos mais antigo que o de socialismo. até a escola austríaca já tem quase 150 anos, coisa de décadas mais nova que o socialismo. rothbard em si publicou entre anos 60 e 80 se baseando num pensamento de quase dois milênios. no mais: líder?
