An edition of Panorama, broadcast a week before the 2024 US election, spliced together clips of a Trump speech made on 6 January 2021. The spliced clip suggested that Trump told the crowd: 'We're going to walk down to the Capitol and I'll be there with you, and we fight. We fight like hell.'

Ten minutes later, Musk, who has been fixated on false claims about the plight of white South Africans, replied to iamyesyouareno. He wanted to know if the ADL still held this position on white South Africans. The iamyesyouareno account's attack against the ADL fits with its deep antisemitism. In August, the account responded to a post asking if 'jews [will] ever be satisfied with not fully enslaving the world' by declaring, 'They will not.' Another post from the account reads, 'The Holocaust happened. I'm very impressed by the numbers though.' It is hard to convey the racism of many posts from iamyesyouareno. On dozens of occasions, the account has captioned videos or images of Black people doing something bad, such as defecating in public, with some version of the conclusion: 'There's no fixing this' or 'There's no fixing this mentality.' Another regular bit is to describe something done by a Black person as evidence of them having a 'Room temp IQ.' The poster has also written: 'Black men did not abolish slavery, White people did. Be thankful.' Musk recently shared a post from the account iamyesyouareno featuring a news article from December 2023 about how a Black man had reportedly been awarded rights to a vacant home that belonged to a white pensioner in the United Kingdom after squatting in it." https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2025/02/elon-musk-x-racists-boosting-white-nationalists-south-africa-antisemitism-adl-springfield-doge-holocaust/ #OrgUSFedUnitedStatesAgencyForInternationalDevelopmentUSAID #PhenomnHolocaustShoah #AdvocacyUSAntiDefamationLeagueADL #OrgUSFedGovDepartmentOfGovernmentEfficiencyDOGE #OrgUSFedGovExecutiveOrder14158 #ConspiracyTheory_WhiteGenocideSouthAfrican #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #OtheringHateAntisemitism #IRLPrivateCitizenKeithBest https://metro.co.uk/2023/12/05/ilford-squatter-describes-nightmare-taking-pensioners-home-19928075/

Supplementary "Oikeiôsis, which can be translated as 'appropriation', is the idea that, in common with other animals, as we grow in awareness, we extend our concept of 'self' to include first our care-givers, and then other beings similar to us. We appropriate them into our sense of self and begin to have concern for them. The Stoics' ethical application of this insight is that we should increase the extent of our Oikeiôsis. The aim is to reduce, as far as is practicable, the gap between the concern that we show for 'self' and the concern that we show for the various categories of 'other'. Oikeiôsis was represented by Hierocles as a series of concentric circles, often now referred to as the Circles of Concern, with the Mind/Self at the centre, and the series of outer circles containing categories of people at increasing distance from the self. Hierocles' idea is that we should strive to draw each circle closer to the centre, treating members of a given circle like members of the immediate inward circle. For example, one should treat parents like one's own body, and treat uncles and aunts like parents, and so on. By drawing the circles towards the centre, we aim to increase the concern that we show for all of humankind. The idea is not, however, to treat everybody the same. People are still in the relative circles. This is a key distinction drawn by Hierocles. We should, though, treat the members of each circle better than would otherwise be the case. We ought to treat others as we would wish to be treated in their position, in accordance with the four Stoic virtues (Wisdom, Courage, Temperance, Justice). In this way, we can deal justly with anybody because he/she is in at least the outer circle, a member of the human race." https://modernstoicism.com/oikeiosis-reimagined-the-circle-of-compassion-by-ray-pilling/ #IRLPhilosopherHierocles #TheoryPhilosophyStoicismOikeiosisCirclesOfConcern #TheorySociologySocialRelationshipsGemeinschaft ? #BehaviourEmpathy

Addendum this appears to be an edited/repurposed version of #CaricaturistKevinCarden's 'Father reads to children while holding shield' illustration https://stock.adobe.com/uk/images/father-reads-to-children-while-holding-shield/412695814 Metaphorically, Carden's original talks about the idea of fathers (parents) shielding (protecting) their children from harm. Significantly, the shield protects from a generalised/non-specific threat not the overt #OtheringHateHomophobia.ic re-inscription shown here. The theme of 'protection/liberation' is clearly something Carden finds interesting - as is evident in other examples of his work https://stock.adobe.com/uk/images/father-holds-up-shield/253391891 and https://stock.adobe.com/uk/images/father-protecting-his-child/278610451 and https://stock.adobe.com/uk/images/mother-and-son-under-umbrella/490793637 His illustrations tend to offer up exaggerated scenarios rendered in a 'fantasy art' style, which seem to be influenced by traditions of Christian imagery/metaphorization. Perhaps, the combination of visual style, sentiment and ideology made the image more accessible/amenable to those who produced the reedited version - I'm thinking specifically of its somewhat #CharacterisationSentimentality? #PhenomnRoleFamilyFather

Yet, notwithstanding the gadgets -- the rockets and the robots and the Department of Government Efficiency Musketeers, carrying backpacks crammed with laptops, dreaming of replacing federal employees with large language models -- few figures in public life are more shackled to the past. On the day of Donald Trump's inauguration, Mr. Musk told a roaring, jubilant crowd that the election marked 'a fork in the road of human civilization.' He promised to 'take DOGE to Mars' and pledged to give Americans reasons to look 'forward to the future.' In 1932, when civilization stood at another fork in the road, the United States chose liberal democracy, and Franklin Roosevelt, who promised 'a new deal for the American people.' In his first 100 days, Mr. Roosevelt. signed 99 executive orders, and Congress passed more than 75 laws, beginning the work of rebuilding the country by establishing a series of government agencies to regulate the economy, provide jobs, aid the poor and construct public works. Mr. Musk is attempting to go back to that fork and choose a different path. Much of what he has sought to dismantle, from antipoverty programs to national parks, have their origins in the New Deal. Mr. Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration provided 8.5 million Americans with jobs; Mr. Musk has measured his achievement by the number of jobs he has eliminated." https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/opinion/elon-musk-doge-technocracy.html #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #CharacterisationVisionaryFuturist #MetaphorWarfareHeroMusketeer #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyPOTUSFranklinDRooseveltFDR #IRLHistoricalFigureJoshuaHaldeman #PoliticsGovernanceTechnocracy #MetaphorDiseaseMindVirus #ToponymAmericaNorthUSCaliforniaNorthernSiliconValley #TauntPresumptionHubris #IRLEntrepreneurMarcAndreessen #TheoryFuturismFilippoTommasoMarinetti #PoliticsAuthoritarianismAutocracy https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/04/opinion/elon-musk-capitalism.html #NarrativeUtopiaPlacelessness #IRLAuthorDouglasAdams #IRLAuthorHGWells #IRLAuthorIainBanks #WorksSeriesTheCulture #ToponymAfricaSouthernSouthAfrica #BrandAmazonJeffBezos #PowerControlSegregationApartheid #IRLAuthorNovelistUrsulaLeGuin #IRLAuthorVirginiaWoolf

#EDUCAUniversityOfOttawaRitaAbrahamsen, #EDUCAUniversityOfOttawaMichaelWilliams "Ahmari's essay on dystopia begins by observing that 'Those of us who inhabit the Very Online Right like to point out how this or that new social phenomenon resembles this or that dystopian fiction. ... these resemblances to fictional dystopias should arrest us' (Ahmari 2021). Then he asks, 'What if dystopia is already here? What if our territory already conforms to maps drawn long ago by science-fiction authors? Could it be that we have crossed the invisible frontier that divides an ordinary place, an ordinary topos, from a dystopian realm?' Indeed, Ahmari is effusive in lauding the ability of dystopian fiction to place issues of the day (such as 'cancel culture, woke-ism and gender ideology') within wider frameworks that 'uncover the deeper currents shaping our age.' He sees these contemporary phenomena as 'merely the acceleration of older and deeper processes of ideological transformation' that dystopian fiction can help expose." Abrahamsen, R. and M. C.

#IRLAuthorPeterJukes "Viewed against that history, Musk's line about 'abolishing' the EU ^{[tweet] [jpeg]} is more than a libertarian thought experiment. It condenses the political slogans of Trumpism and Brexit into one sentence: the nation-state as the only legitimate unit of sovereignty; supranational institutions as inherently undemocratic; the EU as something done to people, not by them. Medvedev's one-word response - 'Exactly' - makes plain how neatly this dovetails with Moscow's long-term ambitions. As former president and now deputy chair of Russia's Security Council, he has become one of the regime's most aggressive public voices, regularly threatening Europe with escalation and calling for a remade world order. When he endorses the abolition of the EU, he is not being rhetorical; he is restating a core Kremlin objective that has underpinned years of covert finance, disinformation and interference. The screenshot collapses those agendas into a single image: a leading Russian official cheerleading the destruction of the EU, and a tech mogul with his hand on the levers of global speech amplifying the same idea." https://pdjukes.substack.com/p/musk-medvedev-and-the-long-war-on #OrgEU #OrgClassifPPRUSUnitedRussiaDmitryMedvedev ^[tweet] #PhenomnBrexit

In spreading fear among citizens and dismantling liberal institutions, its leaders also resemble ordinary businessmen and politicians. Where, in The Force Awakens, Kylo harboured fantasies of being the next Darth Vader, here Snoke sneers that he should 'take that ridiculous' mask off. Facing Luke Skywalker in a duel, Kylo also removes his cloak. Dressed in a grey suit, he is less Darth Vader and more Donald Trump Jr. The First Order's arch enemy, General Leia Organa, meanwhile stands in for Hillary Clinton - another woman with too little support for her political agenda, with the air of a lost cause, whose loyalists happen to be much more ethnically diverse than their opponents. This latter difference is thrown into sharp relief when the white Captain Phasma attempts to destroy Finn and Rose, two Resistance fighters of colour, calling them 'scum'. Not overt racism, but reminiscent of a US administration that has advocated racist policies." https://theconversation.com/the-last-jedi-latest-star-wars-is-a-fable-for-our-post-truth-times-89256 #FictionalCharacterStarWarsDarthVader #FictionalCharacterStarWarsSupremeLeaderSnoke ^[Wikipedia] #IRLBusinesspersonDonaldTrumpJr #FictionalCharacterStarWarsPrincessLeia #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyHillaryClinton #FictionalCharacterStarWarsCaptainPhasma ^[Wikipedia] #FictionalCharacterStarWarsFinn ^[Wikipedia] #FictionalCharacterStarWarsRoseTico ^[Wikipedia]

#OrgUSThePublicAccountabilityInitiativePAILittleSis "Anti-Government Extremist Group The Three Percenters movement is a loosely organized movement of gun owners. Founded by Michael Vanderboegh in 2008. The Three Percenters Club was founded by Michael Graham III. Closely related to the Oath Keepers. The name Three Percenters stems from the disputed claim that only 3% of American colonists took up arms against the British. The group, which sees itself as a lineal descendant of those early American patriots, has grown since President Obama took office, according to the Anti-Defamation League, but its exact size remains unknown. Vanderboegh regularly blasts opposition to gun control laws as a leader of the Three Percenters, vowing never to surrender any arms on his Sipsey Street Irregulars blog. The Three Percenters have shown up at almost all of the major Patriot movement standoffs and armed camps in recent years, including the Bundy Ranch confrontation with Bureau of Land Management (BLM) agents in Nevada in April 2014; a Josephine County, Oregon dispute between miners and the BLM in April 2015; and a Lincoln, Montana dispute between miners and the BLM and Forest Service in July 2015. In Idaho, they have mobilized religious hatred and xenophobic hostility, organizing public rallies against Syrian refugee resettlement.8 The Idaho Three Percenters' organizing has inspired similar actions in California. Supporters also tried to build a 'citadel' in rural Benewah County in the Idaho panhandle.9 See more at: http://www.politicalresearch.org/2016/01/05/profiles-on-the-right-three-percenters/#sthash.b4cymef1.dpuf " #OrgUSPoliticalResearchAssociates #OrgSyndicateMilitiaUSThreePercenters #OrgSyndicateMilitiaUSOathKeepers #OrgUSFedDptOfTheInteriorDOIBureauOfLandManagementBLM

"Blackstone also has a considerable stake in the Dakota Access Pipeline through its acquisition of Harvest Fund Advisors, a financial firm focused on investing in oil and gas infrastructure. According to regulatory filings, Harvest Fund owns 16.6% of outstanding shares of Energy Transfer Partners, which is a 38.25% owner of Dakota Access and 3.9% of outstanding shares of Energy Transfer Equity, ETP's parent organization. Harvest Fund Advisors also owns 4.4% of outstanding shares of MPLX LP, a subsidiary of Marathon Petroleum that is a partial Dakota Access owner through a joint venture with Enbridge. Dakota Access-which was halted by former President Barack Obama after months of public outcry over the threat the pipeline posed to the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, only to be resumed once Donald Trump took office-went into service in June 2017. Blackstone's stake in ETP through Harvest Fund also means that it owns a stake in the controversial Bayou Bridge Pipeline planned along the southern coast of Louisiana. Bayou Bridge will bring crude oil from a hub Nederland, Texas (which is connected to Dakota Access by the Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline) to refineries in St. James parish, Louisiana. The pipeline, which is co-owned by ETP and Phillips 66, has inspired protests similar to those against Dakota Access as well as a lawsuit on behalf of the communities that will bear the brunt of the pipeline's negative impacts. These pipeline interests, and other Blackstone oil and gas investments can be seen in the map embedded below: As CEO of the private equity firm Blackstone Group, Stephen Schwarzman has a financial stake in every sector of the oil and gas industry. In recent years, Blackstone has invested more than $7 billion into oil and gas projects and recently acquired Harvest Fund Advisors, which controls nearly $10 billion in oil and gas assets, for an undisclosed sum. Beyond pipelines, Blackstone is invested in the fracking operations that extract oil and gas from the ground.

The highest match - above trans rights, no-platforming people whose opinions you dislike, stronger action on climate change and the Black Lives Matter movement itself - was with removing historical statues associated with slavery, like that of Colston. Something about this combination of direct action against a highly symbolic target, and revisiting history through a modern social justice lens, meant that 61% considered it woke. For some, that was perhaps a compliment. But by 2022, a word briefly synonymous with enlightened liberal consciousness - borrowed from a phrase used as far back as the 1930s by black Americans, urging each other to 'stay woke'' to the threat of racial violence - was already becoming what the then Scottish first minister Nicola Sturgeon called 'a pejorative term of abuse'. The narrative that woke ultimately ate itself, becoming so shrill, sanctimonious and yet simultaneously brittle that a backlash was almost inevitable, has been building ever since it became clear Donald Trump was on course to win a second presidential term. Britain, with its newly elected Labour government, initially seemed sheltered from the prevailing winds. While corporate America scrambled to ditch diversity policies following Trump's victory, only 11% of British firms surveyed by the Institute of Directors planned similar changes." https://www.theguardian.com/news/2025/jun/10/how-does-woke-start-winning-again #2025_ #BrandYouGov #2022_ #TheoryLinguisticsSocioAfricanAmericanVernacularEnglishAAVE #OrgClassifPPUKScottishNationalPartySNPNicolaSturgeon #TauntSelfRighteousnessSanctimoniousness #PoliticsProgressivismBrittle #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump47thPresident #OrgClassifPPUKLabour #TauntBigBusinessCorporateCorporations #PolicyDiversityEquityAndInclusionDEI

"In 1998, Andrew Wakefield and 12 of his colleagues published a case series in the Lancet, which suggested that the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine may predispose to behavioral regression and pervasive developmental disorder in children. Despite the small sample size (n=12), the uncontrolled design, and the speculative nature of the conclusions, the paper received wide publicity, and MMR vaccination rates began to drop because parents were concerned about the risk of autism after vaccination. ... Appallingly, parents across the world did not vaccinate their children out of fear of the risk of autism, thereby exposing their children to the risks of disease and the well-documented complications related thereto. Measles outbreaks in the UK in 2008 and 2009 as well as pockets of measles in the USA and Canada were attributed to the nonvaccination of children.

Alas, intellectual history bears sad witness to the fact that many defenders of the worst injustices were neither stupid nor ignorant. Francis, for example, was an undeniably erudite man, and he made an original contribution to radical-right theory. The major themes of his thought are dispossession and resentment.

Supplementary "However, appealing to the memory of the Holocaust obscures our understanding of the antisemitism Jews face today, and dangerously misrepresents the causes of violence in Israel-Palestine. The Nazi genocide involved a state--and its willing civil society--attacking a tiny minority, which then escalated to a continent-wide genocide. Indeed, comparisons of the crisis unfolding in Israel-Palestine to Nazism and the Holocaust--above all when they come from political leaders and others who can sway public opinion--are intellectual and moral failings. At a moment when emotions are running high, political leaders have a responsibility to act calmly and avoid stoking the flames of distress and division. And, as academics, we have a duty to uphold the intellectual integrity of our profession and support others around the world in making sense of this moment. Israeli leaders and others are using the Holocaust framing to portray Israel's collective punishment of Gaza as a battle for civilization in the face of barbarism, thereby promoting racist narratives about Palestinians. This rhetoric encourages us to separate this current crisis from the context out of which it has arisen. Seventy-five years of displacement, fifty-six years of occupation, and sixteen years of the Gaza blockade have generated an ever-deteriorating spiral of violence that can only be arrested by a political solution. There is no military solution in Israel-Palestine, and deploying a Holocaust narrative in which an 'evil' must be vanquished by force will only perpetuate an oppressive state of affairs that has already lasted far too long. Insisting that 'Hamas are the new Nazis'--while holding Palestinians collectively responsible for Hamas's actions--attributes hardened, antisemitic motivations to those who defend Palestinian rights. It also positions the protection of Jewish people against the upholding of international human rights and laws, implying that the current assault on Gaza is a necessity. And invoking the Holocaust to dismiss demonstrators calling for a 'free Palestine' fuels the repression of Palestinian human rights advocacy and the conflation of antisemitism with criticism of Israel." https://www.nybooks.com/online/2023/11/20/an-open-letter-on-the-misuse-of-holocaust-memory/ #TheoryFrameAnalysis #ToponymEastMiddlePalestineOPT #PoliticsFascismNaziThirdReich #PhenomnGenocide #2023_HamasAttacksAndIsraeliWarOnGaza #OrgPSHamas #PolicyRightsHuman

#2025_ #EDUUBrownUniversityOmerBartov ^[Wikipedia] #NewspaperUSBrdshtNewYorkTimes "Mr. Netanyahu had urged his citizens to remember 'what Amalek did to you,' a quote many interpreted as a reference to the demand in a biblical passage calling for the Israelites to 'kill alike men and women, infants and sucklings' of their ancient enemy. Government and military officials said they were fighting 'human animals' and, later, called for 'total annihilation.' Nissim Vaturi, the deputy speaker of Parliament, said on X that Israel's task must be 'erasing the Gaza Strip from the face of the earth.' Israel's actions could be understood only as the implementation of the expressed intent to make the Gaza Strip uninhabitable for its Palestinian population. I believe the goal was -- and remains today -- to force the population to leave the Strip altogether or, considering that it has nowhere to go, to debilitate the enclave through bombings and severe deprivation of food, clean water, sanitation and medical aid to such an extent that it is impossible for Palestinians in Gaza to maintain or reconstitute their existence as a group." https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/15/opinion/israel-gaza-holocaust-genocide-palestinians.html #OrgClassifPPILLikudBenjaminNetanyahu #2023_ #OrgILAFMIsraelDefenseForcesIDF #ToponymEastMiddlePalestineOPTGazaStripRafah ^[Wikipedia] #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianOwenJones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDePmAFle4A&t=172s #OrgILAFMIsraelDefenseForcesIDFGioraEiland ^[Wikipedia] #AdvocacyUKBritainIsraelCommunicationsAndResearchCentreBICOM ^[Wikipedia] #AdvocacyUKBritainIsraelCommunicationsAndResearchCentreBICOMFathomJournal ^[Wikipedia] #OrgILAFMIsraelDefenseForcesIDFYoavGallant ^[Wikipedia] #OrgILAFMIsraelDefenseForcesIDFGhassanAlian ^[Wikipedia]

"THE LARGEST MASS SHOOTING IN US HISTORY DID NOT HAPPEN IN LAS VEGAS. It happened December 29, 1890 when 297 Sioux Indians were slaughtered at Wounded Knee Creek on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. They were murdered by federal agents and members of the 7th Cavalry who had come to confiscate their firearms 'for their own safety and protection'. The slaughter began after the majority of the Sioux had peacefully turned in their firearms. The Calvary began shotting [sic], and managed to wipe out the entire camp. 200 of the 297 victims were women and children.

Addendum the argument makes the assumption that (being in the possession of) guns must provide safety and security i.e. that guns act as #TheoryDeterrents. Its argument uses the #1890_TheWoundedKneeMassacre as a example where the confiscation of firearms by 'federal agents' i.e. #OrgUSFedGov is blamed for Sioux Indians being massacred - rather than the more obvious explanation - that the 7th Cavalry simply shouldn't have used their guns without having clear justification. The argument seeks to leverage #TheoryEmotionalBias through a #PhenomnCautionaryTale intended to justify #LegislationUS1791ConstAmdt2RightToBearArms.

The Smithsonian is OUT OF CONTROL, where everything discussed is how horrible our Country is, how bad Slavery was, and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been Nothing about Success, nothing about Brightness, nothing about the Future. We are not going to allow this to happen, and I have instructed my attorneys to go through the Museums, and start the exact same process that has been done with Colleges and Universities where tremendous progress has been made. This Country cannot be WOKE, because WOKE IS BROKE. We have the 'HOTTEST' Country in the World, and we want people to talk about it, including in our Museums." ^{[fact-checked]} #PowerControlChattelSlavery #MetaphorVersusFailureSuccess #PhenomnPolarisationDivisiveIssue #IRLHistorianPenielJoseph #2025_FreedomSeasonHow1963TransformedAmericasCivilRightsRevolution #OrgUSSmithsonianInstitution ^[Wikipedia] #IRLHistoricalFigureJosephMcCarthySYNMcCarthyism #PowerControlSegregationJimCrowLaws #CauseCivilRightsMovement #PolicyUniversalSuffrage #CauseFeminismWomensLiberationMovementWLM #PolicyRightsWomens #IdentityLGBTQIA #PolicyRightsDisability #PhenomnImmigration

#NMUSNBCNewsDarehGregorian "'In June of 1775, the Continental Congress created a unified Army out of the Revolutionary Forces encamped around Boston and New York, and named after the great George Washington, commander in chief,' Trump said during his address Thursday -- although the army was not named after Washington. It then got stranger. 'Our Army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do, and at Fort McHenry, under the rocket's red glare it had nothing but victory.'" https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-blames-teleprompter-revolutionary-war-airports-flub-n1026931 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6mZ1ofj2Vo #PhenomnBlunder #1775_ #OrgClassifPPUSPOTUSGeorgeWashington #PhenomnRevolution #NarrativeWarAmericanRevolutionary ^[Wikipedia]

Addendum Poster praises #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump's act to create the #1776_Commission, which is tasked with promoting so called 'patriotic education' (which given Trump's 'Make America Great Again' #PleaMAGA version of #PoliticsNationalismAmerican - is inevitably a nostalgic effort of #TheoryRevisionismHistorical). The tweet references statements made at the White House History Conference at the National Archives in Washington, DC i.e. #NMUSCableSatellitePublicAffairsNetworkCSPAN https://www.c-span.org/video/?475934-1/president-trump-announces-1776-commission-restore-patriotic-education-nations-schools (video.foxnews.com link not accessible). According to the poster, the act is an attack on Critical Race Theory supposedly promoted by what they characterise as #TauntLeftist.

#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianJasonWilson "Curtis Yarvin is hardly a household name in US politics. But the 'neoreactionary' thinker and far-right blogger is emerging as a serious intellectual influence on key figures in Donald Trump's coming administration in particular over potential threats to US democracy. Yarvin, who considers liberal democracy as a decadent enemy to be dismantled, is intellectually influential on vice president-elect JD Vance and close to several proposed Trump appointees. The aftermath of Trump's election victory has seen actions and rhetoric from Trump and his lieutenants that closely resemble Yarvin's public proposals for taking autocratic power in America." https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/dec/21/curtis-yarvin-trump #2024_

#MagazineUSTheAtlanticAliBreland "The current moment looks a lot like fusionism 2.0: The uniting through line of opposing communism has been replaced by an opposition to 'wokeness,' as the University of Virginia historian David Austin Walsh has observed. The similarities between the political moments provide a rough model for how the new MAGA coalition might persist. In the original fusionism, communism was almost always a bigger deal than whatever libertarians and social conservatives didn't see eye to eye on. This worked because 'communism' never just meant one thing. It could be invoked to oppose the Soviet Union and the literal ideology of communism, to thwart the supposedly communist-infilitrated civil-rights and anti-war movements, or to refer to anything related to left-wing politics. Wokeness now serves that function on the right. It's no coincidence that wokeness is a rebranded version of the right's previous bogeyman: 'cultural Marxism.' As Musk has ripped up federal agencies in a supposed effort to reduce government waste, a lot of what DOGE has actually focused on is rooting out perceived wokeness." ^{[digital archives]} #PleaMAGA #CharacterisationTechBro #PoliticsNationalismWhite #PoliticsNationalismXenophobicNativism #PoliticsGovernanceOligarchy #CharacterisationTechBroTechRight #TauntWokeness #EDUUSUniversityOfVirginiaUVADavidAustinWalsh #PoliticsConservatismFusionism #OrgUSFedGovDepartmentOfGovernmentEfficiencyDOGE #2025_
