Supplementary #MagazineNewStatesmanZoeStrimpel "The Mathias Corvinus Collegium, named after the King of Hungary and Croatia from 1458 to 1490, is a vast network of educational outreach and college-level curricula funded by the Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán's populist, anti-immigration Fidesz party - and its private interests - to the tune of a $1.7bn endowment. The MCC is bound up with Fidesz; it is seen both as a training ground for party elites and, with its stranglehold on funds and power, a key instrument for curtailing ideological diversity in Hungarian higher education. Fidesz, which is lionised by Maga conservatives in the United States and populist right-wingers in Britain, is despised on Hungary's left and in Brussels. It goes to lengths to insist it is not racist and, despite a conspiratorial obsession with George Soros, whom they see as consistently working against Hungary's interests, not anti-Semitic. But Fidesz's rhetoric has at times been hard to see as entirely benign, particularly since the migrant crisis of 2016. 'We must state that we do not want to be diverse and do not want to be mixed, ' said Orbán in 2018. 'We do not want our own colour, traditions and national culture to be mixed with those of others. We do not want this. We do not want that at all. We do not want to be a diverse country. ' The reference to 'colour ' is hard to overlook, and laws have been changed so that it is illegal to 'settle foreign populations in Hungary '." https://www.newstatesman.com/world/europe/2023/08/inside-viktor-orbans-ideas-factory #OrgClassifPPHUFideszMagyarPolgariSzovetsegViktorOrban #PleaMAGA #IRLFinancierGeorgeSoros #2015_EuropeanMigrantCrisis [Wikipedia] #MetaphorPurityRaceMixing #PolicyDiversityEquityAndInclusionDEI #PoliticsNationalismHungarian

Inclusive writing, gender theory, the destruction of works of art, and hatred incited in the name of imagined oppressions woke ideology is infiltrating the entire cultural sphere, gradually embedding itself in our legal, cultural, and societal frameworks. ...

The AfD are a far-right, populist German party https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-37274201 And so, in context with this, the meme presents two caricatures: the left, #OtheringOutGroupTransgressiveDeviant versus the right, #TheoryCodedFemininityOverTradWives The tweet, which is critical of the AfD, seeks to foreground similar othering strategies used by the #OrgClassifPPDEAfDAlternativeFurDeutschland in 2022 and #PoliticsFascismNaziPartyNationalsozialistischeDeutscheArbeiterparteiNSDAP of #1935_.

"'The white conservatives aren't friends of the Negro either, but they at least don't try to hide it. They are like wolves; they show their teeth in a snarl that keeps the Negro always aware of where he stands with them. But the white liberals are foxes, who also show their teeth to the Negro but pretend that they are smiling. The white liberals are more dangerous than the conservatives; they lure the Negro, and as the Negro runs from the growling wolf, he flees into the open jaws of the 'smiling' fox. The job of the Negro civil rights leader is to make the Negro forget that the wolf and the fox both belong to the (same) family. Both are canines; and no matter which one of them the Negro places his trust in, he never ends up in the White House, but always in the dog house.' Malcolm X 'Conservatism' in America's politics means 'Let's keep the niggers in their place.' And 'liberalism' means 'Let's keep the knee-grows in their place-but tell them we'll treat them a little better; let's fool them more, with more promises.' With these choices, I felt that the American black man only needed to choose which one to be eaten by, the 'liberal' fox or the 'conservative' wolf-because both of them would eat him. I didn't go for Goldwater any more than for Johnson-except that in a wolf's den, I'd always known exactly where I stood; I'd watch the dangerous wolf closer than I would the smooth, sly fox. The wolf's very growling would keep me alert and fighting him to survive, whereas I might be lulled and fooled by the tricky fox. I'll give you an illustration of the fox. When the assassination in Dallas made Johnson President, who was the first person he called for?

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

Supplementary Browning's 'HogKitty' character represents a hyperreality as per #IRLSociologistJeanBaudrillard's #TheoryPhilosophySimulacrum i.e. "Simulation [of an othered, trans caricature] is no longer that of a territory, a referential being or a substance. It is the generation by models of a real without origin or reality: a hyperreal. The territory no longer precedes the map, nor survives it. Henceforth, it is the map [i.e. an othered, trans caricature] that precedes the territory [of an authentic trans person] - precession of simulacra - it is the map [i.e. caricature] that engenders the territory and if we were to revive the fable today, it would be the territory whose shreds are slowly rotting across the map." https://web.stanford.edu/class/history34q/readings/Baudrillard/Baudrillard_Simulacra.html

Buckley, Jr., and liberal writer Gore Vidal. It was hoped that these two members of opposing intellectual elites would show Americans living through tumultuous times that political disagreements could be civilized. That idea did not last for long. Instead Buckley and Vidal descended rapidly into name-calling. Afterward, they sued each other for defamation. ... On the whole, the research shows, conservatives desire security, predictability and authority more than liberals do, and liberals are more comfortable with novelty, nuance and complexity. If you had put Buckley and Vidal in a magnetic resonance imaging machine and presented them with identical images, you would likely have seen differences in their brain, especially in the areas that process social and emotional information. The volume of gray matter, or neural cell bodies, making up the anterior cingulate cortex, an area that helps detect errors and resolve conflicts, tends to be larger in liberals. And the amygdala, which is important for regulating emotions and evaluating threats, is larger in conservatives." https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/conservative-and-liberal-brains-might-have-some-real-differences/ #MetaphorVersusConservativesLiberals #TheoryAffectiveResponseAmygdalaHijack

"conservatives and liberals tend to display different personality profiles, and even facial features. In addition, political ideology is related to differences in cognitive styles (e.g., need for closure, structure, and order). For instance, conservatives show greater neurocognitive sensitivity to changes in habitual patterns of response, tend to more rigidly organize their living and working spaces, and express preferences for simple and easily interpretable pieces of art, whereas liberals display more integrative complexity and tolerance of ambiguity."
