“Corporatism, aided by positive psychology, relies on several effective coercive persuasion techniques, similar to those often employed by cults, to meld workers into a “happy” collective.”

Hedges, Chris. Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle (p. 135). Nation Books. Kindle Edition.

Yup, we have real discussions while they do more of an homage to Kabuki theatre but with more sex, drugs, and corruption.

The expectation our society has of being kept “safe” from “dangerous” rhetoric will prove to be one of the last signposts of creeping fascism. Social media has made your average normie as sensitive to verbal criticism as your average fascist dictator.

Silo us into our own echo chambers, feed us narratives about dangerous speech, sit back and watch all thinking get stomped out by millions of little Hitlers obsessed with preventing “mind viruses”. Inverted totalitarianism accomplished. nostr:note1y84zrmg8nekh4ptrt33zpyflfv5lvxnxvwwmq290yqg8sxd2g33stcmm4h

This is me when they ask:

“Ok, but where is it stored and how do I know it’s there?”

Telling them it’s on thousands of nodes at the same time just gets me weird looks. 😂😂😂 nostr:note1ea7vxq95hpgm6a04xt5m0lzn6w5m04af8hps4aup0qsp7ghw3prs2mkrll

If we draw straws randomly on Nostr, could we field 11 players to beat Real Bedford? I assume they are a junior college team right? They are so far down on the list. 😂

Several people were saying this in 2008 and nobody listened 😂

With election season in full swing, I have been discussing things with family members. They are very reliable indicators of the intensity of shitlib propaganda.

I think I need to sound the warning now. If you thought the shitlibs went nuts in 2016 and 2020, the 2024 election cycle will be much worse. I am judging this purely off of the rhetoric and propaganda lines I am already hearing from certain reliable indicators of shitlib direction.

Several Democratic Party voters have already tried to convince me that a dementia President is better than a President with no dementia.

All I can do is laugh at them and try and focus more energy into the positive vibes of #Bitcoin and #Nostr

Be careful, a shitcoiner might see your note and think it’s brilliant 😂

You can’t use a vpn or something?

Dementia-addled economic ideology

It’s not, you are buying an ETF.

Read this in high school, it was one of those books that made it hard to look at things the same way after I read it. #bookstr #quotestr

I agree with this but having been in higher education there are almost zero traditional leftists left on the academic side and even less on the administration side. I agree that you could say they are rhetorical leftists, because they give voice and support to a lot of those traditional values and concepts but only on the rhetorical level.

I am speaking only of the west and specifically the US. I’m not familiar with other countries to expand what I’m saying to them about leftists in academia.

On the “new woke left” grabbing the megaphone (I love this term lol), it’s the kids of the kids of the traditional left that are the ones pushing all the pseudo left bs. The kids of the traditional left are the baby boomers, and they largely didn’t want the megaphone at all and it’s their kids that took it and have mutilated it.

I like you brought up AOC. I think she is a perfect example of a rhetorical leftist that is largely empty. She ran spouting traditional left stuff about war, labor, and oppressive debt but busies herself making viral videos about cultural issues and sides 100% with corporatist Dems on policy and legislation.

I think what’s left of the traditional left has a responsibility but like I said they are silenced. The traditional left also suffers from their strategic thinking being frozen in time in the 1960’s. They fail to understand why the movement failed back in the day and they refuse to admit that sticking to tactics created in the 1960’s means certain failure.

All that to say that yes the woke left headlines read like it’s out of an old issue of the onion. 😂

Found this in my fridge and just took half. Might take the other if not heavy enough.

My father had a few of his books and I think I read his Basic Economics book when I was in high school or college. Immediately dismissed him as a market humper. Lol

Having grown up a bit, I think his views on economics and the utility of markets are right on point even if it veers a bit into the “market as all knowing arbiter of truth” rut.
