Facebook's Threads is so depressing by Jason O. Gilbert
https://jogblog.substack.com/p/facebooks-threads-is-so-depressing>>2886516it's just so steven pinker-coded. dystopian neolib slop.
>>2886517What does that even mean? Who the hell is Steven Pinker and how is it "coded" to him? Use your words
>>2886515He could've just snapped a photo c'mon old man we got shit to do.
>>2886519NTA but they have a VERY liberal and green capitalist view regarding climate change and other social crisis, not to mention they're quite literally funded by the Bill Gates Foundation and Tesla.
Their science communication vids are okayish but very entry level if you're actually interested in the subjects they're talking about.
>>2885264>>2885190lolicons aren't in the queer umbrella
>>2886550Pedo hunters are just sadists and opportunists who direct their violence against socially acceptable targets.
>>2886554It should also be said that the majority of the predators are literally mentally retarded, which is why they lack any inhibitions.
>>2886554True. All their big talk about cutting the throats of anime nerds but none of them ever take a shot at the Epsteinites.
asmongold was banned from twitch after he reacted about the Ceuta event, watching a youtube video:
If you don't wanna get shot, don't bring your fucking kids. it's really that simple…. if it's kids, women, men, anybody, just shoot them. they gonna stop coming over the mentally ill man said.
typical, rightwingers are all about 'put your boots straps on', but then when an immigrant t does the encomendable act of looking for a better life, which requires to put your boots traps on, they deserve the bullet.
>>2885803His PhD dissertation is embarrassingly dog shit and he had to shop around universities across Europe because all the academic advisors he wanted to work with (for example, Habermas and Luhmann) wanted nothing to do ("fobbed him off") the halfwit as it was obvious to most people who met him that he embodied what Marx called, "an intellectual skunk." See the latter half of the episode by Jacobin's Behind the news: Why the Right Hates Theory w/ Moira Weigel for more of the dimwit, trust-fund Karp
>>2885803i didnt know the palantir HQ was in miami but it makes sense.
>>2886648Seems fairly accurate. Their initial growth was quite a lot, though it's probably slowed down significantly as time went on
>>2886640“But Karp has this other story where he wrote, I think if one were being cynical one might say he was just trying to study with the most famous German but if one were being a little bit more charitable, you could say he also had a deep enough investment in Frankfurt School social theory to move to Germany and get a PhD in it.
Well, how did you go from that to where he is now?
I think at the time he had inherited some money from a grandparent maybe and was trying to do some investing or pitching in Europe like while he was doing the PhD. But at the end of the PhD, having read the PhD, I will say he made the quite reasonable decision to not try to become an academic professionally and then joined up with Thiel and became the CEO of Palantir pretty early. I would have to check the exact timeline, but he's not there at the founding, but he becomes the CEO pretty early, and he's Thiel's friend, and I think that's the main reason.”
“But now he's like he wants to kill communists.
Yeah.
This political transformation is curious.
I started writing about or like thinking about these figures in the mid 2010s, late 2010s in San Francisco, and one thing that fascinated me was that I'd just hear around because people were talking about and starting to organize against Palantir. I would just hear people talk about this fact that this eccentric CEO referred to himself as a cultural Marxist. I mean, it's very interesting, almost nobody self describes as a cultural Marxist historically, but he does and talks about how he's a neo-Marxist and talks a lot about his interest in social theory.”
“So that was intriguing to me and was actually at this moment when Teal was becoming the nationally famous figure of the Silicon Valley right after appearing at the RNC. I sort of had this head scratching moment of saying, huh, how is it that the CEO of Palantir says he's a cultural Marxist? And that was what led me to investigate his work.
I will say, once again, a crude materialist answer and I say crude with love, and then also a more intellectual answer. The more intellectual answer is that from the beginning, in ways that I can explain it as much length as you want, I'd say he has a sort of idiosyncratic reading of the Frankfurt School where really he's interested in stripping critical theory and particularly Adorno's theory of all of its normative commitments and just saying, what does this teach us systematically? And again, at risk of being glib, I would say if you take the Frankfurt School and take away their normative commitments to emancipation, what you have is a guide on how to do a fascism.”
“If you think about a text like the authoritarian personality and you say, I'm going to study this, but I don't have a commitment to emancipation. It's like, well, what you have is a playbook for Cambridge Analytica. It's like, how do you use people's, not that I think Cambridge Analytica is fascist.
Lots of people fight about that kind of thing. But so anyway, I think from the beginning, he has a very idiosyncratic, one might say misguided relationship to the tradition, where he is interested in just saying, what can we learn about how aggression or a certain kind of sadistic tendency in human beings shape social order? How do we describe that, quote unquote, systematically or without the desire to fight it?
Carp exudes that sort of thing.”
>>2885803huh?
it's neoclassical social theory. his PhD is literally neoclassical social theory.
also, he doesn't use that title.
>>2886617nobody should listen to this dude. he's the hugest pussy, sitting in his room all fucking day, doing nothing meaningful for himself or society at large, spewing the worst horseshit rhetoric imaginable. you'd be better off listening to some crackhead squatting in the abandoned ruins of a local department store than giving even one iota of your time to this bleeding-from-the-gums retard.
I'm convinced he's a shill, paid by russia or isreal or something. else he wouldn't have so many concurrent viewers. anyway, he's still on kick I'd imagine, so it's not like he'll suddenly disappear into obscurity.
>>2886617>If you don't wanna get shot, don't bring your fucking kids. it's really that simple…. if it's kids, women, men, anybody, just shoot them. they gonna stop coming over the Didn't they say, that's how you know it's an invasion and they are bad dudes because they don't have women and children with them, now he's saying don't bring women and children or we'll shoot them too(the American Anglo-Saxon deciding who the Spaniards will shoot in North Africa of course)
>>2886550>not knowing Chris Hansen was a bad guy in the big 26This movie is incredibly necessary. Not only did his show badly mislead the public about the nature of sexual predators, the sloppy bullshit they did on that show often contributed to tanking the prosecution of the predators they caught by sabotaging the collection of evidence and custody of the perp.

>>2886867Can't get shot in public if you never leave your roach infested house
>>2886957I thought he was a devout catholic? If he has sold out to AmeriKKKan Evangelism then I legit will just stop supporting his corrupt ass.
>>2886872Not to mention the CPRF might as well be controlled opposition lmao
>>2886962It literally is.
It's legit worthless for anyone who makes a pretense to being a communist to talk about foreign policy with relation to their nation when it doesn't even have a DOTP and they should work on building that first before doing anything
>>2886869yeah, that was exactly the problem. you can go and say in twitch you want to kill immigrants. children? no. who will feed the pedo cabal in washington if the children are also killed?

It was okay, but I kind of feel like "Marvel Fatigue" hung over the whole film like some sort of malevolent spirit. The villain had a neat power that kind of reminded me of the film "Fallen" with Denzel Washington though, that was fun.
Overall, its just a brainless film. I'll say that Jon Bernthal was fun, really liked him in the film.

Campists (authoritarian leftists/Third Worldists) explained for you
The reason why this is occurring is an interplay of various things, ranging from seeing other international populations (e.g., Iranians, Palestinians, etc.) as being the recipients of American/Western hegemony, to a justified historical skepticism toward American foreign policy that eventually becomes so excessive that it turns into an almost reflexive opposition to anything associated with the United States or the West.
Many of these people are of American or Western origin, some of whom are LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, racial or ethnic minorities, or otherwise belong to groups that have historically experienced discrimination within Western societies. Because of their own experiences with marginalization, they may understandably become deeply distrustful of the political institutions, cultural norms, or foreign-policy narratives produced by their own countries. They then sometimes identify very strongly with populations abroad whom they perceive as similarly oppressed by American or Western power.
Unfortunately, rather than evaluating every government, political movement, or conflict according to the same standards, they begin dividing the world into an imperialist Western camp and an anti-imperialist camp. Once that framework becomes internally crystallized enough, almost anyone opposing the United States can be interpreted as part of a broader struggle against imperialism, even when those actors themselves are authoritarian, imperialistic, socially reactionary, or actively repressing the very kinds of people these Western leftists claim to support.
This obviously creates some pretty strange contradictions, as someone can correctly recognize the discrimination faced by LGBTQ+ people, women, ethnic minorities, or political dissidents in the United States and then suddenly become extremely reluctant to criticize a government that imprisons dissidents, suppresses independent media, persecutes minorities, or violently represses protesters simply because that government is hostile toward Washington, Israel, etc. In some cases, they will acknowledge those abuses but treat them as comparatively unimportant because American imperialism is viewed as the primary contradiction from which nearly every other political problem supposedly derives.
I think this is also why you sometimes see the political agency of people living in these countries being really sadly ignored. An Iranian protesting against the Islamic Republic will be dismissed as a Western-backed regime-change supporter; a Taiwanese person who does not want to be governed by the PRC becomes a victim of American propaganda; or a Ukrainian who supports closer relations with Europe becomes a NATO proxy. Instead of treating these people as individuals with their own political beliefs, historical experiences, and legitimate grievances, everything they do gets interpreted primarily through their relationship with the United States and Israel.
Personally, I find this type of American/European youth to be too emotional, as many of them don't understand that despite all of them experiencing similar oppression by the imperial core, they don't see that cultural, philosophical, religious, and historical differences can produce radically different values, political goals, and understandings of liberation. Two groups can both experience oppression without therefore sharing the same worldview. A queer American leftist, an Iranian Islamist, a Palestinian secular nationalist, a Kurdish socialist, and a conservative religious Arab may all have legitimate grievances against American or Western foreign policy while simultaneously disagreeing with one another on almost every major question concerning religion, sexuality, gender, nationalism, democracy, or the organization of society.
I think some Western leftists project their own political values onto these populations because they assume that being oppressed naturally makes someone progressive. It does not. An oppressed person can be socialist, liberal, conservative, religious fundamentalist, nationalist, monarchist, feminist, homophobic, secular, authoritarian, democratic, or practically anything else. Oppression tells you something about the power relationship that person exists within; it does not automatically tell you what that person believes.
This is why solidarity, in my opinion, should not require romanticization. I can personally believe that Palestinians deserve freedom from occupation without pretending that every Palestinian political organization shares my values. I can also oppose American intervention against Iran while also supporting Iranians who oppose the Islamic Republic. Those positions only appear contradictory if you have already reduced international politics into two moral camps where one side must always be the oppressor and the other must always be virtuous.
Also, I feel like another piece of it is that they're sort of ashamed of being Western and they sort of romanticize the Orient because it just seems so exotic and different. I am a Filipino immigrant with a father who comes from the old leftist tradition, and my interactions with Western leftists in the past have sometimes given me the impression that certain people are not merely expressing solidarity with non-Western societies, but are also projecting onto them a kind of imagined authenticity that they feel is missing from their own personal lives (i.e., American culture is bland and without seasoning, eating the same food gets boring after awhile). There is almost this assumption that because a society is non-Western, colonized, indigenous, or historically oppressed, it must therefore possess some deeper cultural purity or moral wisdom that the modern West has lost. However, this is quite orientalist because instead of treating people in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, or Latin America as ordinary human beings living in complicated societies, it turns them into symbols of resistance and revolutionary virtue

> That's why I'm moving like a tweaker.
No, Mr Juchecultschizo. It's because you are in fact a tweaker.
>>2887884Makes sense for it to happen so much in the third world.
In the past, the third world could look forward to using foreign aid or international trade to potentially bring up their position in the world. But now?
Now it's all been replaced by a fear in the first world of all that is poor, and thus refusal to trade or in any way associate with the poorer nations.
They can't even hope to immigrate due to the right wing's new, extremely nihilistic ideology.
To go on a bit of a tangent, I genuinely believe the new right sees people not as individuals with hopes, and dreams, but as problems.
In their mind, less people means less competition for jobs, less competition for renting apartments, less noise in cities, less traffic, and less welfare money being spent. No man, no problem. It's zero sum thinking applied to humanity.
It's, interesting, to say the least, that an ideology this nihilistic has become so popular in the first world. Is this the end stage of unrequited capitalism?

BE is fighting with the Deprogram now?
He just can't stop with the dramafarming. I guess it must pay good.
Anyway, basically just rehashing several above posts here but fuck them both, the following is all true:
Both BE and the Deprogram are 3rd worldists / campists who love regimes that mass executed leftists because they adhere to uncritikkkal support for all reactionary third world regimes.
BE has explicitly stated he isn't a communist and just hates the first world (despite being an Australian firstie digital nomad gentrifying Latin America himself).
It's been clear for a long time he likes stirring drama between personalities for clicks. And he's just rude to people.
The Deprogram on the other hand are ideologically speaking everything wrong and insufferable with modern MLism.
They are unironic social democrats. They are Dengists. Market enjoyers. Reformists.
Honestly it's like they've never read any of Marx or Engels debunking of Lassalle, or Lenin or Luxemburg's debunking of Kautsky.

>>2889877What I can't believe is that it looks like there's going to be a remake of the remaster of Halo 2. There were several teasers in Campaign Evolved including an outright "see you in the sequel." Halo 2 Anniversary already exists and it already has PS4-level graphics that have barely aged, yet it looks like they're going to go ahead and drop $200+ million dollars to remake it again.
Remakes are ruining gaming. I lose more and more interest in big budget "AAA" gaming every day and will probably won't bother upgrading my graphics card and will just stick to the low budget PC exclusives I've been playing the most anyway.
An exception to the remake rule is Silent Hill 2, because that was a bad game with a good story. >>2889870If you molest one kid, people think you're the devil.
If you molest several kids, people think you're a funny meme guy
>>2890020how the fuck is trump not a meme diddler? it's pretty much undeniable after he stroked out talking about aborting kids after they're born and the epstein files had that fbi report alleging he personally spiked a bastard child he'd had with a 13yo into a river.
>>2890022Why all famous POC women in AmeriKKKa have white boyfriends/husbands?
>>2889997IP milking and refurbishing entries is cheaper than chasing novelty. But there's gonna be issues down the line as graphics don't keep advancing past realism. And new titles are gonna have to compete with whats already out there. Add to that the release volume being so great anyway you could never afford to buy it all, or play it even if you had the time.
In the future I can see many of these companies stop churning out new titles (see Valve) altogether and only milk the IP they already have. Look at how some of the new big budget IPs like Concord have flopped. Larger publishers and studios can still afford that, small ones can't. (And smaller studios have been going bankrupt or been bought up for decades now)
Some have also been experimenting with subscription based approaches for years now. (You'll own nothing and be happy) And if you can lock people in with that, why spend hundreds of millions on new titles every year?
I think people are nostalgic for that mid-late 90s to early 2010s indie craze era. But there are many technical and economic reasons why I don't see that being repeated.
>>2890023Top of the social-racial totem pole. Will elevate their kids slightly than just wallowing in the mud with their own kind.
>>2890032The 90s and 2010s have nothing to do with each other stop.
>>2890043That era is when gaming saw huge year on year leaps in graphics and other areas and the market wasn't as consolidated around a few publishers and distribution platforms as it is nowadays.
The attention economy was different too in an era where you had to rely on physical mags, visiting stores in person or the occasional television ad. Aside from word of mouth (which relied on the first three).
Online distribution, social media, consolidation, availability of tools, etc. changed a lot about the industry, and profitability down the line.

>>2890058graphics are a field of diminishing returns. doubling the polygon count and resolution of the average scene was basically free for developers as the tech was improving quadratically. in the present day the hardware has plateaued and the only way to progress fidelity is either higer quality assets or bringing CGI techniques from rendered to realtime, both of which only makes software run like shit and redditors seethe.
the main problem with games these days is that you're 30.
>>2890276Kav is based, yes.
>>2890277Fat people can’t be based
>>2890329He's not even fat.
>>2890267This isn't about free time and taste changing with age. The entire consumer base could consist of 14 year olds and you'd have the same issue.
20 years ago every release beyond being (relatively) novel was also a step forward technically. I don't recall anyone soyfacing back in the day over Crysis because of its captivating story. It was new and it looked amazing compared to anything before it.
Nowadays every game release has to compete with thousands and thousands of releases (see the report), both stuff which was already out there and stuff being currently released. It's a cutthroat competition for attention span, where it's difficult to differentiate yourself by being "next gen".
This maybe isn't as important for lone indie dev hobbyists or slopware producers, where either the costs are low or you aren't looking to make much profit anyway. Nor is it for the big studios with billions of dollars in revenues. But it is for the mid segment, where you need to find millions or dozens of millions $ from investors willing to wait years for a payoff, in a market saturated with AAA releases, some a decade old and still holding up.
And given the choice of doing a remake or sequel for a series that's already known (and knowing fans will buy the next installment), or risking hundreds of millions of dollars on a new IP + advertising, big studio execs are gonna pick the first over the latter.

>>2890691Ultimate confirmation that BE is just a Haz infracel tier leftoid but without the American patriotism
The fact is Zorhan represents basic social democracy and a basic level of opposition to genocide.
Normal, sane people on the left should be able to recognise the following as all being true:
>1 - Zorhan is by his policy positions a social democrat, more or less the type of politician you'd find in Scandinavia or the like, and not a socialist
>2 - His positions do not nearly go far enough to achieve real socialism in any sense, he is ultimately a Democrat and shares in many of their values, but at the very least he isn't totally controlled by Israel, which is good
>3 - That means he is still a big improvement when directly contrasted to his campaign rivals and the general calibre of US politicians
>4 - The USA is the imperial core, the beating heart of capitalism, and is as far from any real socialist movement seizing any power as its possible to be, therefore any minor victory even by social democrat reformists such as Zorhan is likely to get a lot of media coverage
>5 - It's totally okay recognise and like the small improvements made by social democrats of the DSA within US capitalism for what they are - inadequate but at least something in the right direction - and you can recognise this, you can even like Zorhan as a person, without needing to suck off the Democrats / DSA / Social Democrats
>6- Unfortunately people like The Deprogram, Hasan Piker, Kulinski, Agent Kochinski, earn their living funnelling people into the Democrats and promoting / angrily defending any and all DSA / non-AIPAC Dems who get close to winning an election, no matter how evil they are (see: Platner)
>7 - And on the other hand, 3rd worldists like BE will always look for an opportunity to make a video ripping into you if you ever say a single positive word about the little improvements social democrats make because they are drama farmers
>>2890780BE ain't communist, he's a 3rd world nationalist.
>>2890778she is hot, by USA standards, by not being obese
>>2890851She's hoy by all standards bro
>>2890799>The fact is Zorhan represents basic social democracy and a basic level of opposition to genocide.I dont want to sound like a dick but I'm not sure if I care if he "represents" anything (specially social-democracy lol but whatever), I guess it depends on how you understand that word
>but at the very least he isn't totally controlled by Israel, which is goodI'm sure plenty of other US politicians are not "totally controlled by Israel" and their collaboration with the zionist project is more willing than coercive
>That means he is still a big improvement when directly contrasted to his campaign rivals and the general calibre of US politicians I can agree he seems to be an improvement, big? lets take it easy
also this "basic level of opposition to genocide" thing sounds to me like a marketing term for "less collaboration with genocide", sorry, but as you said he is just a democrat at the end of the day
>It's totally okay recognise and like the small improvements made by social democrats of the DSA within US capitalism for what they are - inadequate but at least something in the right direction
I think its ok to recognise if he does good things for workers but Zohran has openly stated his whole thing is making the democratic party great again, I don't think thats the right direction
basically I dont think burgers should kill this guy but I don't think "normal, sane people on the left™" should support him beyond saying "yeah he is ok I guess"
>>2890691complaining about the paywall is absurd: if you care enough to listen buy a subscription. they charge fuck all and across all platforms it looks they barely make enough to pay a salary.
attacking mamdani is pointless: he gives yanks a model of a successful socialist leader. everyone knows he's going to be sidelined or ejected through some obscure (or invented) mechanism. arresting netanyahu or ending the west bank land sales isn't happening any time soon. there's more than enough legal justification, but if he actually ran the play he'd have to deal with:
>police insubordination: the jewish community gives so much money to the NYPD through various charities and associated organizations the FBI had to investigate them. wealthy zionists, NYPD leadership, and the police union all have a direct line to the reactionary press.>federal interference: you get the NYPD to jam them up, but then the FBI or some other bureau comes in to jam you up.>hostile prosecutor: you bust bibi or the scammers selling illegal conflict real estate, but when you get them in front of the state prosecutor she vacates the charges, furious at the manure you've dumped on her desk.>dem excommunication: they already didn't like you, but now they're going to use their media and legal teams to end you.my understanding is that currently protesting is allowed with an exclusion zone from synagogue entrances, and this won't change anytime soon. given the limitations that's not a bad deal: the popular movement gets to continue without being criminalized and the the radicals weren't going to respect any boundaries set by the state anyway.
it's going to hurt like a bitch when he betrays everyone, but there's better targets and there's no reason to do the zionists dirty work by attacking him.

>>2890785It's a fine line between keeping up legitimate criticism of right deviations and engaging in left wing deviations yourself. I haven't heard the comments of the Deprogram guys so I can't comment on what they said or the response to it, but people have a tendency to blow comparatively mild statements out of proportion. Somebody will say something like "The DSA represents a major step towards class consciousness and could lay the groundwork for a new socialist movement" and people respond by accusing them of loving AOC and Chuck Schumer.
>>2890972Wow. That's crazy. Amerikkka is cyberpunk dystopia.

>>2890818erm based? total 1st world genocide NOW
>>2891077>Somebody will say something like "The DSA represents a major step towards class consciousnesslol yeah nothing says major class consciousness moment as socialists celebrating a bourgeois party winning elections so it can keep rulling over the working class with as little resistence as possible :)
any "somebody" that says something as retarded as that deserves to get clowned on
>>2891229Delcy and the PSUV sold out Maduro and Venezuelan people to get in Trump's good graces. Even NastyEnchilada acknowledges this.
>>2891293>Even NastyEnchilada acknowledges this.dont care what reactionary sexpests have to say on the matter TBH. unequal treaties are unequal treaties
>>2891262You're proving my point. The re-emergence of a social democratic movement actually capable of challenging and taking seats from the neoliberal establishment does represent an improvement in class consciousness. In what way is it not? Nobody is saying its anywhere near enough, the point is that it's some progress.
>>2891316Not when they immediately walk back all the socdem promises they campaigned on once in office and are brought to heel by the neolibs, which literally every DSA endorsed candidate has done
>>2891335>Not when they immediately walk back all the socdem promises they campaigned on once in office but by that point sheepdogs have already convinced many in the "movement" that these bourgeois operators are indeed advancing the interests of the workers, so they percieve anyone that attacks them as an "ultra" and start policing those that have actual class consciuesness, you know, like sabo anon does
>>2891335The degree to which promises are walked back depends on the strength of the movement and its ability to operate under its own power. Its simply not true that DSA candidates always retreat to the neoliberals once in power, at least not fully. Zohran has already pushed ahead with rent freezes, subsidized groceries, infrastructure spending, etc. The more of these candidates get elected, the less dependent they'll be on the neoliberal wing of the party.
>>2891364I wouldn't consider it ultra behaviour to criticize socdems or the DSA. I consider it ultra behaviour to dismiss the significance and benefits of these developments altogether because they aren't a fully formed class conscious worker's movement.
>>2891462I think all tendencies of Goth subculture - from 80s British rock bands to gas mask wearing industrial raves to neofolk chansons - could agree that whatever it is, it is not a porn category.
And yeah, it's supposed to be counter-cultural. It derives from punk, but more about escapeism than social rebellion and commentary. Which feels antithetical to going on a whore dating show with Drake.
>>2891475Do you really think 90s Norwegian Black Metal was a commodity?
>>2891371Germany had a similar class consciousness in the 30s.
They wanted more treats, they elected a "socialist" and they got their treats, for a little time atleast.
>>2891478I dont know enough about it but probably.
>>2891482The old liberal lady with the boat is right
>>2891481Hitler wasn't elected bro.
>>2891482>>2891484I am not saying it didn't become commodified, I am saying it started out in an enviroment that was very hostile to the idea of it. The media back than didn't even view them as musicians first and foremost, but as militant satanists.
Art is a commodity, but it is a special type of commodity because it can only be reproduced by an artist who has a monopoly on his work. So just because they had a fanbase, and sold records, means that they commodification was generalized- this is how opposition to capital in the arts is even possible. Once that is over (with big mainstream metal festivals for example) they cease to be artists and become merely aesthetic technicians.
>>2891481>still milking the "social fascist" cow in 2026Bro even the Soviets immediately realized how retarded that shit was. Just let it go.
>>2891507Even tour brand of socialism is a commodity. Its a lifestyle created, curated, and sold to you.
>>2891529>hurr durr everything is a commodity Unless you are literally buying Che shirts, Kneecap records or Huawei Deng special edition phone cases, it's not. That doesn't mean that it can't be a commodified identity, or function as such in the free marketplace of lifestyles.
A ton of socialism nowadays is recuperated to sustain the domestication of radical ideas, but it is not literally a commodity, that's a post-Marxist error steming from thinkers such a Baudrillard and his system of objects, where what a commodity does or how it can he reproduced is secondary compared to what it signifies, leading to the simulacrum, etc. pp.

Twitch now uses streams as training for generative AI by default. Streamers can opt out.
>>2891657I think a conspiracy theory about Kirk's murder is a "functional" messaging strategy (or at least that's his aim) if you're like Jimmy Dore and want to unite the left and right in some grand left-wing schizo populist coalition, and so he will push whatever narrative he thinks will help manufacture that. But it has reached a point where it's hard to tell whether he really believes his own manufactured bullshit (he probably does).
For instance, if Kirk was indeed killed by some normie lib-leftist nerd with a trans roommate, if you're a basic normiecon Charlie Kirk flame carrier, what conclusions can you draw from that? You might conclude the left is bad (which is what you already believed) and they killed Charlie because he believed in free speech, but also the solution isn't really to do anything but continue voting for Republicans and maybe moving to a red state if you don't already, get married, have kids, and go to church. That's probably not what Dore wants them to do. Also, the fact that there
are lib-leftists out there who would kill Kirk (statistically speaking in a big enough country) is bad for Dore because that's not what he wants leftists to do either, so it's better to believe he didn't actually do it, rather it was a conspiracy.
I don't think Dore's scheme here is going to work BTW. There are a lot of problems with it. But a lot of conspiracy theories work to try and unite people. The Islamo-leftist "third worldist" enemy hydra stuff on the right is another example, because Israel support is fracturing within the MAGA coalition, so they need to come up with a common enemy which binds together Zionists, nativists, normie Republicans, and so on. How do you get free-market biz conservatives on the same side as a psychotic Zionist like Laura Loomer with the retarded /pol/ racist (who could also be antisemitic) who shouts "turd world!" at videos of a right-wing influencer harassing a Somali daycare in Minnesota. Well it's all "race communism."

>>2891455>turned into a porn subcategory>>2891462>can't decide whether it's primarily an aesthetic Gothic literature is all about women's relationships to abusive and alienating patriarchy, it makes sense. Twin Peaks is a gothic melodrama about a teen girl trying to fight against being possessed by a demon. Capitalism has universalized the condition of being a scary fairy tale Bluebeard vampire guy who grooms teens in his castle, so now every middle class guy can abuse women by turning them into sex objects and forcing them to get tattoos or piercings, or just wear a collar I guess

>>2891744One thing that tingles my brain is remembering that Marx was a victorian middle class man, so all those classic horror stories were pop culture to him. He was making pop culture references in his theoretical works.
And it's not that horror "seems to" make for good metaphors for capitalism, it's that the genre is the outgrowth of the disorienting alienation of capitalism.
Doesn't Dracula start with him doing a real estate scheme in order to acquire land to move to britain?
>>2891744Classic goth lit is actually about women jumping up the social ladder by taming a rich dangerous man by defeating his crazy wife living in the attic so that she can dominate the lower class servants.

>>2892568they shouldn't have said anything in the first place
BE is basically just an Argentinian nationalist
>>2892576So what? That’s a progressive position
>>2892577Supporting a Zionist settler colonial capitalist state is progressive, how?
>>2891862Think about it. The White House is basically one big white vagina and Obama is a powerful black man. That basically means BBC penetrated the greatest symbol of white supremacy that has existed in the US. The US itself got blacked and white men were forced to watch this for 8 years on their TV like cucks. Do you begin to grasp the violation?
>>2892576BE is basically just a sex tourist pedo
>>2892512I was there when the American media pushed the idea of big butts being good (bestial, reactionary compared to the progressive, Promethean boobs). They started with J-Lo.
Hasanoids sure hate BE
>>2892702Nowadays you post a picture of a woman with a butt that isn't flat and people go "gyatt !!!" no matter how small it is
>>2892423i was so hoping for some actually funny shitpost. instead he went for two lines of, as you so accurately noted, bottom of the barrel propaganda. sad.
>>2892682will Homer creampie his own butthole?
they could have cut that whole thing down by like 2 minutes and it would have been funnier >>2891847The difference is the question of whose/which theory leads
The movement as a whole can be a coalition, but "united fronts" are not big grey blobs that zerg rush the enemy. they are explicitly the revolutionary working class movement's attitude towards temporarily aligned currents.
in a time of vague socialist impetus but no theoretical clarity, the first task is to split theoretically, as in, articulate WHAT WE ARE, so that we can have a coherent strategy of how we work with those who are NOT WHAT WE ARE. it's dialectical n shit. I guess that would be my more nuanced qualification
>>2892710its funny because they have basically identical politics but BE is le bad just because he doesnt toe the DNC line kek
>>2892682ngl tempted to watch the movie just because it's theatrical handdrawn western animation which is non-existent nowadays
>>2892802He's just annoying and clearly posts about himself on here
>>2892818Good, death to transphobes
>>2892818It was leftists who codefied free speech in the Bill of Rights
>>2892818probably exaggerated or fake news but w/e based brasilians kill all phobes
>>2892818Brazilian here, in all of these cases, mfs can just hire a lawyer or pay something to bail then all with burocracy. Americans are just retarded.
>>2892837The laws shouldn't exist in the first place.
>>2892818>criminal transphobiabased brasil???
>>2892841I don’t care how annoying you think alphabet people are, phobes are worse
>>2892844It's not about "alphabet people", its about living in a free society
>you say bad word, now you go in cage for 1 yearMedieval idiocy.
>>2892841Who cares ? you freedumb of speech to call someone a transhumanist is not gonna heal you fentanyl addiction or you cure your cancer tumor uygha.
>>2892846And btw china has the same policy where they force you to apologize or get caged or lose social credit score. And thats based
>>2892846>Who cares?Me. It's primitive to punish people for saying le bad words.
>>2892852It’s far more primitive to use them in the first place
>>2892854The difference between the two is that either feelings are hurt, or the state enslaves you. They are not in any sense proportional.
>>2892855Words matter, you’re not in middle school anymore, stop acting like it
>>2892852>>2892855Proles here are more worried about paying their bills and putting food on the table, thats why they din't take arms for their freedumb of speech to say uyghur or transhumanist. And besides you would only get arrested for g
Hate speech here if you actually called someone here a "uyghur", "monkey" or "transhumanist" over and over again. Not over fucking jokes.
>>2892818Here in the UK our courts actually declared being a transphobe is a "protected characteristic" you can't discriminate against, on the same level as being black, gay, or disabled
>>2892860>Words matterWhy? Tell me the devastating consequence of using a bad word.
>>2892857>libtardAs opposed to a conservative moron like yourself, absolutely.
>>2892861Freedom of speech is an unalienable right of all free people.
Just say you prefer being enslaved and be done with it.
>>2892866Also, you dont have freedom of speech youself. You can very well go outside and act like a anti-social retard calling everybody uyghur, transhumanist and saying you want rape then. Instead of the state jailing you for it, you probably get shunned by proles or at worst get fucking beat up, how is that not so different for being a slave by your own logic ?
>>2892845Then rot away in the US. We do not want you anywhere else.
>>2892866>Freedom of speech is an unalienable right of all free people.Yeah surely I should have the freedom of speech to verbally threaten to maim and rape you, your family, and everyone else who has your skin tone
>>2892792>in a time of vague socialist impetus but no theoretical clarity, the first task is to split theoretically, as in, articulate WHAT WE ARE, so that we can have a coherent strategy of how we work with those who are NOT WHAT WE ARENothing wrong with that as such, but overemphasis on how correct and pure your theory is can lead to constant infighting and splitting. Theoretical clarity is important but it should be combined with recognizing where others are right even if you think they're wrong overall or on other questions, and working together on points of unity. For example I would agree that the DSA's overall strategy is fundamentally flawed, but it would be very foolish to refuse to work with them on anything because of it.
>>2892869>you dont have freedom of speech youselfI agee - but that's the problem. See how I resent my enslavement, while you submit to it. That's the difference betwee us.
>You can very well go outside and act like a anti-social retard calling everybody uyghur, Why would I be so impolite, disorderly and moronic?
>you probably get shunned by proles or at worst get fucking beat upCorrect - that is natural justice.
>how is that not so different for being a slave by your own logic?Because people also have a right to defend themselves.
>>2892873Do you not have these freedoms?
Threaten away. I promise I won't snitch on you, like you would to me.
>>2892877Actually I do not think it's reasonable to send rape and death threats to anyone. Thankfully for you there's a nation on Earth that allows people to wear swastika shirts and sieg heil with no legal repercussions, I think you'd feel right at home there.
>>2892884>I do not think it's reasonable to send rape and death threats to anyoneNeither do I. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.
>>2892877>I agee - but that's the problem. See how I resent my enslavement, while you submit to it. That's the difference betwee us.If you think being "slave"=not being able to call someone a uygha or transhumanist. You are a retarded
>Why would I be so impolite, disorderly and moronic?Because you have freedom of speech to do that, so do it right now. You are not a slave as you say, do it pussy.
>Because people also have a right to defend themselvesSo thats not freedom of speech then. Because anyone can just beat the shit out of you or shoot you for doing that. True freedom of speech that you belive is not real in any kinda of society.
>>2892891Being a slave is being a slave. The state locking you in a cage for saying bad words is unjust bondage. But if not, tell me how its justified. The other anon already gave up explaining how much words hurt
>you have freedom of speech to do thatSo what? You appear to misunderstand what freedom is.
>anyone can just beat the shit out of you or shoot you for doing thatThat's already the case, but people rightfully go to jail for violence. Yoi can get mad at people and hit them, but then you get in trouble.
>>2892895I shouldn’t have to put up with people calling me a fag, I’ve had enough of that shit, if it means you go to jail then fine
>>2892896So the crime is that your feelings were hurt?
If you hurt my feelings, should you go to jail?
See the problem?
>>2892898I’m not gonna call you a slur based on something you can’t control, if I’m gonna insult you it’s based on your behavior and decisions which are firmly in your control
>>2892906Yes, we both agree.
There is a difference between the freedom to something and our inclination toward actually doing it. My point is that if an idiot acts prejudiced, he shouldn't be kidnapped and put in a cage. As you have already said, he may be shunned, which is good enough, but I'm also sure he will find like-minded people, so all's well that end's well in the best of all possible worlds.
>>2892876solidarity is contingent on discipline from below, not from mere "critique"
look at how american "progressives" went from "ye, we should defund the police" to "woke 1 was crazzyyyy" messaging because they lost the fear of god
the theoretical split has to mean something in practice
>>2892992That's all she's got against haz? weaksauce
>>2892983He is a dumb moralistic cunt. You can't live in a modern industrial society in the West without at some point partaking directly or indirectly in some form of immiseration, imperialism, Zionism, etc.
He uses YouTube, so, wanna go down that road?
>>2892992A weird side story is that Helali left the ACP. Meanwhile, Andrew Korybko was claiming earlier this summer that Helali's colleague Sarah from "DD Geopolitics" is in cahoots with Loomer.
>>2893020thanks fro the update.
is it over for the ACP? or will they just downsize?
>>2892997>He uses YouTube, so, wanna go down that road?6:49
>You know, it's not like a YouTube situation where YouTube is the only viable like video platform. So, you kind of have to use it. This is an e-commerce website platform. There's like 20, 25, probably 30 different viable options for that. and he happens to choose like the worst possible option run by Zionists, open proud Zionists who donate to Israel. So yeah, I just wanted to bring attention to this because it seemed like no one was noticing the Shopify part. >>2893029Say what you will about BE but he's obviously smarter than 99.9% of posters here
>>2893030B8 used to be believable
>>2893031It's not b8, a huge portion of people here cant even comprehend posts and remain on-topic, let alone land a gotcha on a 5 month old youtube video. The absolute state of this place.
>>2892992Might as well merge this general with /USApol/. Online spectacle is just mainstream politics at this point.
>>2893020No way, have a credible source? Wasn't he in the leadership board, co-founder and their international secretary?
>>2893035no, because in /usapol/ posting loomer is stupid. she's an influencer, and does not hold any official public office position.
>>2893040He left the position, but is obviously still a member. He's doing a livestream with Hinkle tomorrow.
I searched Xitter for recent posts about Helali and the only ones I found that were recent were complete schizo posts about glowing accounts that want him banned from entering the US.
>>2893020>A weird side story is that Helali left the ACP.He left because he's in Russia trying to get a visa or citizenship.
https://www.rt.com/russia/640977-us-journalist-russian-citizenship/https://tass.com/society/2141289He's still buds with Jackson but he has some mental disorder causing bouts of mania.
>>2893050It's weird because giving the international secretary to Hinkle
who already lives in Moscow makes no sense if Helali fears that he could be barred from returning to the US.
Whether or not Hinkle could return to the US is also unclear, I guess. There are several government and state actors in the US that openly put him on lists, including Marco Rubio.
>has some mental disorder causing bouts of mania.Who says that?
>>2893063>Whether or not Hinkle could return to the US is also unclear, I guess.Most likely there's a risk because of OFAC sanctions. Like if he's a paid employee of an "entity" designated by the Treasury Department. That could be a real problem. Idk why Helali would go there really but the reason is probably really stupid.
>>2893070<We were right about MAGA Communism and we were more advanced than the masses but also got that shit completely wrong because the masses did something else so we should go back to being Bernie supporters again except not really but also sorta (I guess) >>2893070wow i'm not even memeing anymore maybe the ACP are the true movement??
>>2892992>Laura Loomer beefing with HazI need a drink
>>2889202>bonbisecond this I wanted the video of the bald guy rambling about bonbibonkers but now i think I have dementia because I already request on another isg thread
>>2893094he's just like me
>>2893094The ACP insistence that they're both Muslim and Christian at the same time is very bizarre
I know nobody cares but the guy behind the death threats is some attention whore called Gabriel Astrogildo Dutra. He's trying to become a LOLcow like Marcelo Valle Silveira Mello, but he fails at even that because he's just not interesting enough.
His political beliefs are all over the place but he's not a leftist, more like alt-right (despite him being black). He's also filiated to Renan Santos' party so it's likely this was all a false flag.
>>2893180For non-Brazilians: Marcelo Valle Silveira Mello was the founder of Dogolachan, probably the most infamous Brazilian imageboard in history. He's currently in prison for being a massive edgelord.
>>2893253Actual radical centrism, just take a bit from every side
>>2893349That guy is such a hopeless propagandist. It's rarely worth listening to because you'll have to spend so much time afterwards parsing through the actual truth.
Interview i read with these guys, btw:
https://www.theamargi.com/posts/exclusive-interview-with-yasin-zia-the-rebel-general-fighting-to-overthrow-the-taliban >>2887489>Gazi Kodo LARPs as Joker>Haz use to LARP as BaneThe glow-in-the-dark left is united in its delusions of being a batman villain
>>2893442>he did land rights research for natives in ArgentinaTotally believable that some monolingual retard living as a sex tourist did land rights research for natives
>>2893456He speaks Spanish though?
>>2893143Is this about the stolen legos and the corruption of the mormon state
>>2893442lol wasn't he vocally decrying westerner youtubers/streamers going to cuba was performative nonsense? what a piece of shit
>>2893349Waow… the northeren alliance round 4? or 5 maybe? I'm sure this time it will all work out.
>>2893371>That guy is such a hopeless propagandist. I mean that was pretty obvious when 2 minutes in: "the long war journal a news website for the Foundation for Defense of Democracies…" Lmao
>>2893465Yes but it's different when he does it :)
>>2893473ah yeah i forgot, he's not a westerner
>>2893465he gave out big wads of benjamins in cuba to people on the street while Hasan piker was busy streaming in the hotel wasting electricity and sipping martinis made of tears
>>2893495This shit is cool, how AI art should actually be like.
>>2893479Even worse, he’s a bogan
>>2893495It sounded good at the time. I think we just lost interest is all.
>>2893495Nickelodeon is weird nowadays.
>>2893541All "politics memes" or "history memes" subs like this are fascist
>>2893442The fact that he doesn't stream every thing and keeps a low profile outside of youtube and shitposting is his #1 quality and it's clear that all these ecelebs really despise him for it
>>2893554Bro they're just improvising at this point
>>2893554Japanese should stick to making ugly bastard hentai.
>>2892808>He's just annoyingi think he is retarded sometimes but his antics make me laugh, i really cant see any reason to seethe at him like some people do here unless you are a Hasan fan or a DSA member or something like that
