Right, I know it’s under attack, but why then hasn’t media just dispensed with the pretense? Life would be so much easier if people stopped lying to each other, putting on fronts and making pretentions at being something or someone they’re not. It’s like, we know they’re full of shit, they know they’re full of shit. They know that we know, and we know that they know. So, what’s the point of keeping up this bullshit game any longer?
Uh, that’s why I said the fascists are still working on it. We’ll know it’s really gone when shows like COPS can no longer say, “All suspects shown are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.”
Just as they are always meant to write “The suspect” not “The criminal”.
For now, anyway. Due process and the presumption of innocence are still holding up, but the fascists are working hard on that one.
Initially, wasn’t Occupy a protest about the post-recession bank bailouts? Then the production team for Good Morning America put a self-proclaimed representative of Occupy, a “female-presenting person” named Ketchup, in the studio to ask them questions about it, and they had no media coaching whatsoever.
Carl Schmitt literally wrote the book on fascism as an ideology. Hell, he was even in the Nazi Party, sort of like the Curtis Yarvin of his time. Which is interesting because Yarvin kind of idolizes Schmitt and quotes him frequently. Being in the Nazi Party didn’t last very long, though, as he was forewarned that soon he was to be ousted from his role in the Party, as the regime no longer had need of philosophers, and he was also concerned that he would be outed as a Hegelian.
This. Violence against fascists isn’t really violence, it’s enforcement of the societal End User License Agreement.
Fascists only know one language, and that is violence. They firmly believe “Might makes right” and so, we must show them strength such that they fear to challenge us ever again.
Well, the circus is getting too expensive and the bread is out of stock, and you can’t distract a rumbling belly for long. My argument stands. We know they’re all full of shit. They know they’re all full of shit. They know that we know, and we know that they know that we know. These “games” aren’t fun, anymore, so why keep playing?
