Supplementary #IRLScholarGeorgeLakoff "Consider Brexit, which used the metaphor of 'entering' and 'leaving' the EU. There is a universal metaphor that states are locations in space: you can enter a state, be deep in some state, and come out that state. If you enter a café and then leave the café , you will be in the same location as before you entered. But that need not be true of states of being. But that was the metaphor used with Brexit; Britons believed that after leaving the EU, things would be as before when the entered the EU. They were wrong. Things changed radically while they were in the EU. That same metaphor is being used by Trump: Make America Great Again. Make America Safe Again. And so on. As if there was some past ideal state that we can go back to just by electing Trump" (23 July 2016). https://george-lakoff.com/2016/07/23/understanding-trump-2/ #TheoryLinguisticsConceptualMetaphorCMT #MetaphorSpatialExiting #PleaMAGA #TheoryDeclinism #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump

#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"The current moment looks a lot like fusionism 2.0: The uniting through line of opposing communism has been replaced by an opposition to 'wokeness,' as the University of Virginia historian David Austin Walsh has observed.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."
