A self-proclaimed Trump supporter and Christian, Ensing has long been vocal about her political and religious views on social media. Users on both the left and the right were quick to condemn Ensing's Jan. 6 comment, with fellow influencer Gabriel Zamora tweeting, 'this is entertainment to you?' and others questioning Ensing's religious convictions. In addition, social media users have denounced Ensing for 'blackfishing,' or pretending to be black or mixed-race online for personal gain. (No evidence has refuted Ensing's half-Puerto Rican heritage, although critics have alleged a misleading opportunistic and "rebrand")." https://www.prnewsonline.com/sephora-influencer-PR-Ensing #BrandSephora #2020_CapitolSiege #MemeAmusedEatingPopcorn #IRLPersonalityInfluencerGabrielZamora #OtheringCaricatureImperialismBlackfaceBlackfishing #ToponymAmericaSouthPuertoRico

Addendum the short - presented by Ekpunobi (with help from her co-conspiracy theory fantasists) - imagines a #MetaphorThreatGeneralisedNonSpecific, which they position in #MetaphorThreatExistential terms. Significantly, the piece attempts to strengthen an emerging #OrgSyndicateAccordConservativeEcosystem (composed of business people who are ideologically invested in a #TheoryIndividualismSelfActualisation) while also, seeking to #LiteralMessagingPersuasionAdvertising (or perhaps more aptly, #BeliefTheismProselytise) the short's audience into the ways of #PoliticsCapitalismLaissezFaireFreeMarketFundamentalism. In doing so, then piece begins with Ekpunobi offering up her #MetaphorConfessionOfTheReformed (of Ekpunobi seemingly #MetaphorBlindnessDeafnessVsSeeingHearingTheTruth through rejecting #BehaviourTolerance i.e. so-called #TauntWokeness in favour of what appears to be some version of #TheoryPoliticsOfFearAnxietyOfVictimisation crossed with #ConspiracyTheory_CulturalMarxism). In doing so, the short seeks to concretise (what #IRLHistoricalFigureKarlMarx might understand as a form of #TheoryReification [Wikipedia] ) where a contemporary cultural phenomenon (what #IRLSociologistAndreasReckwitz understands as #TheoryHypercultureHybridity) as a so-called #MetaphorWarfareCulture - perhaps, what #IRLScholarErvingGoffman might understand in #TheoryFrameAnalysis terms as some sort of 'frame shifting' - where such a phenomenon takes on the form of a #MetaphorWarfareFactionalism / #MetaphorWarfareBattleFight staged by people invested in #TheoryIndividualismCompetitive, which is replete with #MetaphorWarfareHero.s and #MetaphorWarfareEnemy.ies (or, perhaps more aptly #MetaphorPretencePantomimeVillain.s). The short includes aspects of #PhenomnCulturalFormGenreDocumentaryTravelogue [Wikipedia] (through including references to Ekpunobi travelling to #ToponymAmericaNorthUSTennesseeNashville and #ToponymAmericaNorthUSFloridaOrlando). Through its choice of interview subjects, the piece somewhat seeks to imply that the we are in the midst of a #MetaphorTransformationSeaChange [Wikipedia] brought on by the #MetaphorGenerationTheYounger overthrowing the #PoliticsStatusQuo (instead of the reality, that the piece is aimed at #IdentityConservativeYoung who are much more likely to be resistant to social change efforts).

So Posie cops a bit of tomato juice and she pulls the plug.

Addendum references to the 'mind' as per references such as 'openminded' here, seem to underline the significance of #TheoryDeterminismBiologicalPhysiological. Given this, mention of #MetaphorDiseaseMindVirus seems to takes on greater significance (as such a 'virus' would limit the ability to become 'free').

"The Aryan Family (undated) is a print after a painting by Wolfgang Willrich. It depicts what could be described as the quintessential Aryan family. With their sunshine-blond hair, strong jaw lines, chiseled 'Nordic' features, and rosy-red cheeks, the members of this family of six could have easily appeared as 'Aryan' ideals in the Nazi propaganda series 'Blood and Soil.' The clothing of the boy in the foreground seems to identify him as a member of the Hitler Youth, while the traditional rustic clothing of the others links them to the rural population so idealized by the regime. Symbols of hard work, fertility, bounty, health and vitality, and connection to the land abound. The family's home, a half-timbered, thatched-roof construction, is an excellent example of the völkisch architecture celebrated by the Nazis, and, as such, provides a fitting backdrop for this idyllic family scene." https://ghdi.ghi-dc.org/sub_image.cfm?image_id=2040 #IRLPainterWolfgangWillrich #1938_FamilienbildnissAKATheAryanFamily [commentary] #PoliticsFascismNaziAryanMasterRace #NarrativeUtopiaNewMan [Wikipedia] #PoliticsFascismNaziPropaganda #PoliticsFascismNaziHitlerjugendHJAKAHitlerYouth [Wikipedia] #PoliticsNationalismRomantic #TheoryHauntologyCottagecore [Wikipedia] ? #PoliticsNationalismEthno #IdentityWhite #PoliticsFascismNaziBlutUndBoden [Wikipedia]

And so, #LiteralSchoolCollegeUniversity don't promote #CatchcryFreeSpeechFreedomOfSpeech and therefore must be akin to states such as #ToponymRussia, #ToponymAsiaChina, #ToponymAsiaEastNorthKorea and #ToponymEastMiddleSaudiArabia

#WebsiteCBRCKAComicBookResourcesAnthonyGramuglia [Wikipedia] "Cyberpunk 2077 might offer a never-before-seen picture of the transhumanist experience with its fully-rendered, sci-fi, dystopian world, but its portrayal of trans characters is anything but progressive. Many gamers have criticized how Cyberpunk 2077 and its developer, CD Projekt Red, choose to fetishize and commodity trans bodies and trans identity. According to critics, Cyberpunk 2077 not only fails its trans audience, but seemingly goes out of its way to perpetuate negative stereotypes. However, while this is already problematic, what makes the controversy surrounding Cyberpunk 2077 even worse is the response the critics of the game have received. Several trans critics have been harassed and mistreated online, creating an atmosphere of violence towards the trans community that Cyberpunk 2077's developers choose to ignore or outright poke fun at." https://www.cbr.com/cyberpunk-2077-transphobia/ #OtheringHateTransphobia #OtheringStereotypeSocialIdentity #ConspiracyTheory_Transhumanism #BrandCDProjektSA [Wikipedia]

Supplementary "In conclusion, based on current evidence George Orwell probably did not employ this saying. The quote was attributed to Orwell in its earliest known appearance in 1982. The expression evolved into a handful of variants, but the ascription to Orwell was preserved. The origin is unclear, but it is possible that the statement began as a proposed summary of Orwell's position, and it was later incorrectly converted into a quotation." https://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/02/24/truth-revolutionary/ Also see: https://www.fallacyfiles.org/mqorwell.html

Supplementary this perspective is discussed by #IRLScholarFrancescaTripodi in terms of the practice of #EpistemologyAmateurExegeteScripturalInference: "I argue that practices learned in Bible study are applied to media interpretation. The conservatives I observed all hold the belief that certain fundamental truths exist, and they critically interrogate media messages in the same way they approach the Bible, focusing on specific passages and comparing what they read, see, and hear to their lived experiences. I term this media interrogation process scriptural inference, whereby audiences apply the technique of closely reading 'the Word' to other documents. I argue that these practices are a style of media literacy, whereby those who believe in the truth of the Bible approach secular political documents (e.g., a transcript of the president's speech or a copy of the Constitution) with the same interpretative scrutiny. Through this practice of unpacking texts, inconsistencies between an interpretation of original documents and the stories produced by MSNBC, CNN, Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and The Washington Post are easy to find. Such findings further support their widely shared belief that mainstream media cannot be trusted" (p.6). #PhenomnAlgorithm #ReasoningFallacyBiasCognitiveConfirmation #EpistemologyAmateurExegeteGooglingStuffAsResearch #BeliefTheismChristianityBible #NarrativeTruthImmutableUniversalIncontrovertibleAbsolute #BeliefTheismChristianityBibleScripture #TheoryConstitutionalLawOriginalism #NMUSMSNBC #NMUSCNN #NMUSFOXFNC #NewspaperUSBrdshtTheWallStreetJournal #NewspaperUSBrdshtNewYorkTimes #NewspaperUSBrdshtTheWashingtonPost #WebsitePragerU #IRLCommentatorDaveRubin #BrandTheDailyWire
