@DorothyKohout [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [02]: @prageru @JeremyDBoreing @JJudahIsaac @amalaekpunobi @VivekGRamaswamy @AmandaEnsing This Prager video gets the definition of #woke wrong in a rather significant way. The injustices aren't invisible unless you make a robust and very deliberate effort to not see them. [URL redacted]

Addendum the tweet criticises the PragerU short for its willingness to ignore #OtheringDiscriminationRacismStructuralSystemicInstitutional (and actually, #TheorySociologyIntersectionality). In this sense, the criticism implies that the piece is best understood as a deliberate, culturally induced form of ignorance i.e. #EpistemologyAgnotologyIgnorance [Wikipedia] #MetaphorDeceitDisingenuousGlibFacile

#BrandAccessIntelligenceLLCPRNewsGroupSophieMaerowitz [Muckrack] "On Jan. 6 at 2:55 p.m. ET--about 20 minutes after insurrectionists breached the U.S. Capitol building--beauty influencer Amanda Ensing tweeted, 'There's not enough popcorn in the world for what's about to happen.' 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

Supplementary #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundationCarlTrueman "A society's understanding of the notion of 'self' has broad implications for the cultural, moral, and political spheres. The modern notion of self, which can be called 'expressive individualism,' to use Robert Bellah's term, lies at the heart of current cultural conflicts, including abortion, pornography, the ethics of life and death, radical racial politics, freedom of speech, and freedom of religion. Expressive individualism holds that human beings are defined by their individual psychological core, and that the purpose of life is allowing that core to find social expression in relationships. Anything that challenges it is deemed oppressive.

Addendum postmodernism's focus on contingency leads you towards infinite variation i.e. the a priori of the uniquely differentiated individual (where identity is the only commonality). Paradoxically, this is in contradiction with a social-conservative position, which is simultaneously centred around the a priori individualism and the a priori of shared values albeit ones, which are fixed and necessarily unchallengeable (because of their supposed absolute certainty/truth) e.g. 'family values', 'Christian belief' etc. The problem then for social-conservatives is not postmodernism's centring on the individual but in its attacks of what is understood to be sacred/sacrosanct - in short, *tradition*. #TheoryPostmodernContingency #TheoryIndividualismSelfActualisation #PoliticsConservatismTraditionalist #PleaAWorldOfSimpleStableFixedOperations #NarrativeValuesFamily And: #EDUCAMcGillUniversityInternationalReviewMIR https://www.mironline.ca/what-is-post-modern-conservatism/ And? http://politicalcritique.org/world/2018/post-modern-conservatism-or-how-the-right-became-what-it-hated/

Addendum the #MetaphorVersusSideBySideDiptych seems to make more sense when considered in terms of #IRLSociologistAndreasReckwitz's #TheoryRegimensOfCulturalisation1 i.e. #TheoryHyperculture + #TheoryCommunitarianismCultural and his #TheoryRegimensOfCulturalisation2 i.e. #TheoryCulturalEssentialism. From this perspective, processes of #TheoryIndividualismSelfActualisation and #TheoryHypercultureHybridity implicit in #TheoryGlobalisationCosmopolitanism (emblematic of the meme's 'Phillipe BA in Philosophy' characterisation), represent a challenge #TheorySociologySocialInertia and threat to collective #NarrativeStableMorality (emblematic of the meme's 'Robert the electrician apprentice' characterisation). #OtheringLegitimacyRealAmericans ?

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).
