@RylanKlesel [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [22]: @DangleSpanners @CeliaRichards0n I'm thinking the same of you adepts of #CulturalMarxism. Seems you hold complete #PowerAndControl at #NT.

Your hateful #bigotry towards those who don't want your #woke agenda is terrifyingly reminiscent of the levels of #intolerance in #Germany, #USSR & #China in the 1930s. [URL redacted]

"So we must beware of a tyranny of opinion which tries to make only one side of a question the one which may be heard. Everyone is in favour of free speech. Hardly a day passes without its being extolled, but some people's idea of [free speech] is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone says anything back, that is an outrage." #IRLHistoricalFigureWinstonChurchill (13 October 1943).

"Habermas sees the modern public sphere as, in many ways, the victim of its own success. As it expanded far beyond its original basis of educated male property-owners, material inequalities could no longer be set aside, but rather became the subject of public debate (1962 [1989: 127]). And this debate was no longer a matter of rational-critical analysis of state action by the assembled public, but of negotiation between interest groups which bypass public reason. Instead of the approximation of society to the ideal type, what emerged was an impoverished pseudo-public sphere, lacking its original capacity for rational-critical discourse, easily manipulated by states, corporations, and interest groups using the techniques of 'public relations' (1962 [1989: 176, 236]). Its role now, as in the feudal era, is to acclaim decisions which have already been made." [encyclopædia] #IRLPhilosopherJurgenHabermas #TheoryThePublicSphere #PoliticsFeudalism [Wikipedia]
