Politics sells🤷‍♀️

To half your potential clients or audience? I'd say politics buys and invades our public spaces everywhere it can to spread more propaganda. No one that values a free and open internet for all should support this shit.

Because of Cultural Marxism?...

 

"Cultural Marxism is an ideology which emphasizes culture as a main cause of inequalities. Critics have seen Cultural Marxism and its influence as an important cause of political correctness and as an important cause of a perceived decline of humanities, social sciences, culture, and civilization in the Western world." (The most accurate definition I could find, and no, not on Google.)

 

Try Googling Cultural Marxism and you will see a number of flat out lies about it, saying it's "far right" when it has the word MARXISM in it, meaning it is in fact on the left, the far left, the Marxist/socialist left.. You know, Carl Marx? The guy who was the father of Communist socialism?... The same thing was done with Nazism as well, labeling that (incorrectly) as fascist, or in some cases you will flat out find people who deny the fact that it was socialist at all. I mean, we can't possibly besmirch the hallowed cause of socialism and offend our allies (at the time) with something like National SOCIALISM, but I digress...

 

Another interesting thing to note is the amount of interest certain "important people" have placed on Saul Alinsky's Rules For Radicals, Hillary Clinton, to name just one, then consider how many of those very tactics, or maybe I should say rules, said people have used over the years; and yes, this includes the mainstream media in general, not just news networks.

 

The linked video is long but worth a watch. If you want to (maybe) make sense of things, anyway. The part where he talks about higher education and or public schools may ring some bells, if the rest of it doesn't, as far as when he describes some of the things that "should be taught".

 

 

This is stuff that is on my mind, so it counts.

Every business has a target audience and trying to appease every audience is a fool's errand. I can't disagree that politicians are using their funds to buy time slots on media outlets but far more are just people who happen to share that politician's views.

 

I don't view politics as good or bad. It is really a mix of both.

I'd pay to see armies of humans flinging literal shit at each other. Of course we'll need a few rules or else they'll just keep throwing shit at each other forever.

Fun fact (maybe): multiple cultures would dip their arrow tips in feces as a way to infect the wounds of their enemies if they survived the initial attack and escaped.

 

Also, as I was about to post this, I found an article detailing the various ways people used poop as a chemical weapon. Some are a bit dubious and a lot of them weren’t super effective, but still.

Ey! Somebody did their research.

 

I have heard about humans using poop to infect their weapons but nothing as detailed as that article.

 

All this talk about poo and weapons made me remember this dumb game idea I thought up set in the caveman era with gore reminiscent of the Gears of War games and as a side gag you could pick up poop and throw it at your enemies and when it hits, your character would yell “Ha! You look like shit!”

 

Somebody likely already made it.

That's pretty much my understanding 'hunker down', at least per those in power telling those not in power what to do.  "Ready? 1, 2, 3, Cower in Fear!".

Not really, to simplify: National Socialism was built around the American "progressive" idea of Eugenics as espoused by Margaret Sanger of Planned Parenthood fame (there is a reason the first PP was in Harlem) and only vaguely resembles Fascism because of the nationalization of the trade unions.   They're conflated because during WWII, academics that had loved fascism prior to the war (it was Marxism with a functioning economy), found themselves at odds with a society that suddenly hated all things Italy, Germany, and Japan. 

 

After the war the indoctrination/propaganda machine took over so after 80 years of it people forget that Benny Moosefucker started the Fascist party when the ISO rejected his proposal to enter WWI so he created his own spin on Marx's ideas and called it fascism instead of Marxist-Moosefuckerism and billed it as a transition between capital and communism which most closely resembles Democratic Socialism.

 

This is the same indoctrination/propaganda machine that teaches about the war crimes of Germany but ignores the atrocities committed by Japan, like cannibalism (and no, it wasn't because their supply lines were cut) amongst other things that made Nazis call them barbarians.  

 

TL;DR - Cultural Marxism is just modern political correctness with more obnoxious assholes pushing it.  End the viability of an MBA as a degree and the post-modern doublespeak that it engenders and that problem should solve itself.

All this talk about Marxism and I realize people really love demonizing Karl Marx but have they even read Marx's stuff? Or if they have read it have they thought of it in a practical mindset. Thanks to a video:

I learned exactly what the hubbub is about seizing the means to production. It doesn't mean free housing. It means borrowing the plow for a bit in order to compete with other producers of goods.

 

I honestly don't get some of the comparisons. Like why the French Revolution? French peasants were starving. Why wouldn't you stage a revolution in order not to starve to death. Nobody should have to go through that.
