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.

"Owens, Crowder and Shapiro have all been of great import to the Trump movement. Other figures include - but not limited to - Charlie Kirk, Jesse Kelly, Dan Bongino, Jack Posobiec, Dave Rubin, and even Trump himself. Other figures, such as Joe Rogan, Elon Musk and Tulsi Gabbard, though not of the Right ideologically, can be counted as fellow travelers. Just as how AM radio have been the medium of choice for tech-savvy conservatives during the years of Reagan and Bush, the Internet have been the broadcasting tool for the online Trump supporters. Conservatives' favorite punching bag have been the well-to-do elites from the coasts, who are seen as unattached to a locality. However, by using the Internet, the Very Online Right can broadcast their views from anywhere in the world." https://musicallyspeaking.substack.com/p/the-rise-of-the-very-online-right #IRLCommentatorCandaceOwens #VlogLouderWithCrowderLWCStevenCrowder #TalkbackRadioTheClayTravisAndBuckSextonShow #TalkbackRadioTheJesseKellyShow ^[Wikipedia] #NMUSFOXFNCDanBongino #NMUSOneAmericaNewsNetworkOANNJackPosobiec #VlogJoeRoganExperienceJRE #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticPartyTulsiGabbard

#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

#EDUUKUniversityOfGlasgowRebeccaHarrison "Since its rise to power, the First Order has obsessively undermined the ideologies of the former New Republic, which calls to mind Trump repealing Obama-era legislation in areas such as health and welfare. 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]

To celebrate, Brown had a party thrown by the Daily Wire, the right-wing site that hosts her podcast. The event was also sponsored by Meta, the mega-company that owns Facebook, Instagram, and Threads, among other sites. The decorations included an archway that read 'Seeking Truth to Save The West,' underneath the words 'Presented by Meta' and the company's logo.

Supplementary #AdvocacyUKHopeNotHateJoeMulhall "Union Jacks and the crosses of St George have begun to appear on lampposts up and down the UK in recent days. Much of the right-wing media has celebrated, with the Daily Mail dubbing those behind it an 'army of patriots.' While there is nothing wrong with flying the nation's flags, HOPE not hate can reveal that the key organisers behind much of this activism are hardened and extreme far-right activists. While many instances of flags being raised, or crosses being painted on roundabouts or walls, are being carried out by ordinary people inspired by posts on social media, the main organising force behind the campaign is 'Operation Raise the Colours'. HOPE not hate can reveal that the co-founder and organiser of the group is longtime Stephen Lennon (AKA Tommy Robinson) ally Andrew Currien (AKA Andy Saxon). Formerly a key member of the English Defence League's leadership bodyguard team, and now running security for the far-right party Britain First, Currien has previously been jailed for his part in a racist death." ^{[HOPE not hate]} #CampaignIdeologicalOperationRaiseTheColours ^{[Wikipedia] [skeet feed] [tweet feed]} #OrgSyndicateVigilanteUKRaiseTheColours ^[Wikipedia] #AdvocacyTurningPointTPUK #NewspaperUKTabloidTheDailyMail #PoliticsFascismNaziNeoFarRightAltRightRadicalRight #IRLIdeologueStephenYaxleyLennonAKATommyRobinson #IRLPrivateCitizenAndrewCurrienAKAAndySaxon #OrgClassifPPUKBritainFirst

At the height of tensions during the 2024 riots he announced to his 200 million X followers: 'Civil war is inevitable.' Addressing the protest organised by far-right activist Robinson in September, Musk again used inflammatory language: 'Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you. You either fight back or you die, that's the truth.' ... While it was never perfect, X has become a pay-for-play playground for conspiracy theorists, racists, grifters and anyone else willing to buy a blue tick or boosted by Musk's algorithms because their message aligns with his dystopian worldview.

The group, calling itself Safeguard Force, boasts of 200 volunteers and thousands of pounds in donations, but beneath its fluorescent vests lies a toxic mixture of racism, intimidation, and fantasies of violence against asylum seekers." https://dorseteye.com/behind-the-hi-vis-far-right-militias-masquerading-as-community-safety-in-dorset/ #ToponymEuropeUKEnglandDorsetBournemouth #OrgSyndicateVigilanteUKSafeguardForce ^[commentary] #CharacterisationVigilanteAndOrMilitia #PhenomnImmigrationRefugeeAsylumSeeker #OtheringHateIslamophobiaAntiMuslim #PowerControlMicrofascismIntimidation #PowerControlMicrofascismProvocation

#NewspaperUKBrdshtBylineTimesOllyHaynes "However, Byline Times can reveal that one of Safeguard Force's founders, Gary Bartlett, a Dorset-based small businessman, helped organise protests against asylum seeker hotels and moderates a Facebook group containing Islamophobic and anti-migrant posts in which he asked for support for Safeguard Force. And a key spokesperson for the group stood for Reform this February. Bartlett is the admin, alongside a handful of others, of 'Taking Back Our Country', a Facebook group which organises nationalist and anti-migrant protests in Dorset." https://bylinetimes.com/2025/08/14/founders-of-apolitical-patrol-group-in-bournemouth-include-asylum-hotel-activist-and-reform-candidate/ #PhenomnImmigrationRefugeeAsylumAccommodation #EDUUKUniversityOfOxfordCentreOnMigrationPolicyAndSocietyCOMPASTheMigrationObservatory https://migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/briefings/asylum-accommodation-in-the-uk/ #OrgClassifPPUKTheBrexitPartyReformUK #HandleFacebookTakingBackOurCountry #IRLBusinesspersonGaryBartlett

#NewspaperUKBrdshtBylineTimesNicolaKelly and #NewspaperUKBrdshtBylineTimesOllyHaynes ^[Muckrack] "The 'Raise the Colours' flag-raising campaign, which claims to be a 'grassroots' campaign for 'unity' and has drawn the support of mainstream political parties and widespread coverage in the British media, has pivoted to stabbing through dinghies and harassing and racially abusing migrants and aid workers in the camps of Northern France ... UKIP leader Nick Tenconi has also been seen in the camps targeting migrants. In one video, Tenconi is seen proclaiming: 'Northern France is now British territory!' Approaching a group in Calais, he shouted: 'You are not welcome in Britain', and asked if they were 'planning to come to Britain illegally.' Individuals acting alone have also been seen in the camps and on the beaches of northern France, including activists with large followings such as 'Ross the Don'. Charity workers say that the number of British far right groups attempting to harass and intimidate migrants and aid workers has increased since the signing of the UK-France 'one in, one out' deal." https://bylinetimes.com/2025/12/18/raise-the-colours-flags-campaign-nigel-farage-migrants-aid-workers-on-french-beaches/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJw0CuQc3Kg #OrgClassifPPUKIndependencePartyUKIPNickTenconi #OrgSyndicateAccordGrassrootsMovement #BeliefTheismChristianityForgivenessMercy #IRLPrivateCitizenRossChildsAKARossTheDon ^{[forum] [tweet]} #BeliefTheismChristianityCrucifix #MetaphorWarfareBattleCapitulateSurrender ^[tweet]

Context response to video tweet of Trump remarking at the #2020_WhiteHouseConferenceonAmericanHistory https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVA_t4IJXDc&t=952s that: "For many years now, the radicals have mistaken Americans' silence for weakness. But they're wrong. There is no more powerful force than a parent's love for their children. And patriotic moms and dads are going to demand that their children are no longer fed hateful lies about this country. American parents are not going to accept indoctrination in our schools, cancel culture at our work, or the repression of traditional faith, culture, and values in the public square. Not anymore" (17 September 2020). ^{[digital archives]} #1776_USDeclarationOfIndependence4thOfJuly ^[Wikipedia] #TheoryConstitutionalLawOriginalism #PoliticsNationalismAmericanAnti #MetaphorWarfareHeroGuardianOfChildhoodInnocence #PoliticsNationalismChristian #MetaphorVersusUsThemPatriotismIsLoveCriticismIsHate

#NMUSPublicBroadcastingServicePBSNewsHourAmnaNawaz "President Trump described Smithsonian museums as 'out of control' for emphasizing, in his view, 'how bad slavery was.' It's part of a pattern by Trump in his second term to reframe historical narratives, in particular about racism and discrimination. Amna Nawaz spoke with historian Peniel Joseph for our series, Art in Action..." https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/scholar-says-trumps-efforts-to-reframe-u-s-history-is-reminiscent-of-mccarthyism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Amxmov1aos #BrandTechSocialMediaAltTruthSocial #2025_ "The Museums throughout Washington, but all over the Country are, essentially, the last remaining segment of 'WOKE.' 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.
