Supplementary #MagazineUKTheSpectatorPatrickWest "Many on the left decry with airy disdain that complaints of 'cancellation' and 'wokery' are just antediluvian grunts of conservatives who don't like, or don't understand, the modern world - with its new, strange manners concerning matters race and gender. Then there are the shopkeeper-type conservatives, who think the culture wars are all a silly hoo-ha about pronouns, toilet usage, dramas about Cleopatra and the Royal Family as seen on TV. They scold that we should be properly concerned with material materials: the cost of living, inflation, mortgage payments, industrial disputes, the future of the Conservative party. Both conclusions, from the complacent left and bean-counting right, are based on misapprehensions. They derive from a double falsehood. The culture wars are really taking place, whether the left likes or not. And the culture wars are a bread-and-butter issue, whether the right likes or not.

Addendum #IRLAuthorCharlesLeadbeater's #2009_WeThink #TheoryImaginarySociotechnical manifesto for the (then) seemingly unavoidable #EpistemologyAmateurParticipatoryCulture / #EpistemologyAmateurCulturalProduction https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiP79vYsfbo over-optimistically and #TheoryInstrumentalism.ally imagined only the potential advantages of such a sea-change: breaking down legacy, siloed ways of thinking/working would automatically lead to mass creativity. What was missing however, was the realisation that such conceptualisation assumes a common cultural understanding and objectives i.e. the #PoliticsStatusQuo - essentially, the further spread and reach of #OtheringElitesLiberalCulturalEducated values / a #TheoryHyperculture perspective - not the flourishing of divergent perspectives and with it, the surge in #ConspiracyTheory_.ies, the emergence of #EpistemologyAmateurParticipatoryDisinformation, #EpistemologyAmateurExegeteAutodidactDilettantism and charges of #MetaphorWarfareCulture and #CatchcryCancelCulture, supposedly mobilised as a singularly, unified attack against #ReasoningFallacyAppealToTraditionValues - representing a manifestly binary duality of #MetaphorVersusEverydayPeopleLiberals. #TheoryModernityReflexive

Context this image is a #CharacterisationDerivativeWorkCoOption. The original, full-frame illustration shows a #MetaphorVersusSideBySideDiptych comparison of a mother and her daughter. This version has been cropped significantly. The illustration was created by #CaricaturistLaineyMolnar [forum] Unlike this cropped version, the original presents a positive interpretation, where "Me at age 31" represents a contemporary, #NarrativeValuesCosmopolitan and #PoliticsLiberalismLiberalWorldview as contrasted with the depiction of a #PhenomnRoleMarriageHousewife and #PhenomnRoleFamilyMother as per "My mom at age 31" reference. The implication is that the change is the positive consequence of changing attitudes and presumably, the impact of #CauseFeminismWomensLiberationMovementWLM
Addendum #IRLSociologistAndreasReckwitz "instead of constructing an antagonistic clash between various cultures (and their cultural patterns), I would like to argue that in late modernity we witness a much more antagonism between what I call, 'regimens of culturalisation': not cultures facing off against each other but, more fundamentally two contrary conceptions of what culture means, and therefore two contrary formers, which the cultural sphere is organised. In late modernity a wide-ranging, culturalisation of 'the social' is taking place, however it has two forms, that are very different from each other: Culturalisation1 as I would like to call it, can be observed as a culturalisation of forms of life and sort of global cultural market: here cultural good compete for the subjects who are striving for individual self-realisation. This is what I would call #TheoryHyperculture. Culturalisation2 is a different regimen. This culturalisation aims at collectives, and sets them up as communities sharing an identity and a set of morals. It employs, a strict inside/outside dualism, and follows the model of homogeneous communities created as 'imagined communities': this constellation I would call #TheoryCulturalEssentialism. #TheoryModernityLate (and #TheoryModernityLiquid as defined by #IRLSociologistZygmuntBauman) is marked by conflict between these two regimens of culturalisation, which has led to a contradictory constellation of opening and closure." (transcript of video extract running from 4:03 to 5:36). https://www.mmg.mpg.de/342842/online-lecture-2019-02-27-reckwitz See pages 14-15 in Reckwitz, A. and V. A. Pakis (2021). 'The End of Illusions: Politics, Economy, and Culture in Late Modernity'. Cambridge, UK, Polity Press Cambridge, UK. [Worldcat] In some senses, this conceptualisation of 'hyperculture' and 'cultural essentialism' feels reminiscent of #IRLSociologistFerdinandTonnies' #TheorySociologySocialRelationshipsGesellschaft (individual oriented, business and commerce dominate) and #TheorySociologySocialRelationshipsGemeinschaft (group oriented, tradition dominates) http://folksonomy.simonperkins.co.uk/?permalink=72 Also #IRLHistoricalFigureEmileDurkheim Given this, Tonnies' theory was directed towards understanding the transformation from the pre-urban to the urban, not late modernity as per Reckwitz theorisation. Interestingly, the conceptualisation provides some explanation for antagonism towards #TheoryGlobalisation, exemplified by the #OtheringElitesGlobal caricaturisation as proffered by #PoliticsConservatismSocialSoCon.s Reckwitz's point about: "subjects who are striving for individual self-realisation", might tie into #IRLPhilosopherLouisAlthusser's #TheoryInterpellation (this needs to be explored further). Additionally, #IRLScholarTimothySnyder's #TheoryPoliticsOfInevitability https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eghl19elKk8&t=87s feels reminiscent of (at least how Reckwitz explains it), Fukuyama's #1992_TheEndOfHistoryAndTheLastMan theory.

Supplementary #VlogSamVaknin [channel] "try to argue with a fan of Jordan Peterson, see what you get. These are cults. Try to argue with someone who believes in the idiotic QAnon, see what you get. These are all cults. With varying degrees of intelligence, the adherence of QAnon are at the lower rank of the ladder of intellect, obviously, and the followers of Jordan Peterson are higher up, but they're all cults. So of course in cults, the main function of a cult is to reduce anxiety, to reduce worry by introducing rigid rules, which if you follow, you are guaranteed to acquire magical powers, influence on the world." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJTA3Vno8LU&t=1699s
Addendum criticism that #TheorySociologyIntersectionality will inevitably lead to further 'individualisation' i.e. #TheoryMarginalisation can be understood in terms of #IRLSociologistAndreasReckwitz's characterisation of the divide between #TheoryIndividualismSelfActualisation, which is characteristic of what Reckwitz defines as #TheoryHyperculture versus the impulses of what he defines as #TheoryCulturalEssentialism (which he explains is deeply invested in #TheoryCulturalEssentialismRegulatedCollective).
