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

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, 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).

Addendum #IRLScholarSaraAhmed "the Aryan Nations Web site, the role of emotions, in particular of hate and love, is crucial to the delineation of the bodies of individual subjects and the body of the nation. Here a subject (the white nationalist, the average white man, the white housewife, the white working man, the white citizen, and the white Christian farmer) is presented as endangered by imagined others whose proximity threatens not only to take something away from the subject (jobs, security, wealth), but to take the place of the subject. In other words, the presence of these others is imagined as a threat to the object of love. The narrative involves a rewriting of history, in which the labor of others (migrants, slaves) is concealed in a fantasy that it is the white subject who 'built this land.' The white subjects claim the place of hosts ('our shores') at the same time as they claim the position of the victim, as the ones who are damaged by an 'unmerciful government.' The narrative hence suggests that it is love for the nation that makes the white Aryans hate those whom they recognize as strangers, as the ones who are taking away the nation and the role of the Aryans in its history, as well as their future. We might note as well that the reading of others as hateful aligns the imagined subject with rights and the imagined nation with ground. This alignment is affected by the representation of both the rights of the subject and the grounds of the nation as already under threat. It is the emotional reading of hate that works to bind the imagined white subject and nation together. The average white man feels 'fear and loathing'; the white housewife, 'repulsion and anger'; the white workingman, 'curses'; the white Christian farmer, 'rage.' The passion of these negative attachments to others is redefined simultaneously as a positive attachment to the imagined subjects brought together through the repetition of the signifier, 'white.' It is the love of white, or those recognizable as white, that supposedly explains this shared 'communal' visceral response of hate. Together we hate, and this hate is what makes us together" (Sara Ahmed, 2004, pp.117-118). Ahmed, S. (2004). 'Affective Economies.'

Just 45 percent of Americans say Donald Trump is 'solely' or 'mainly' responsible for the rioters who overtook the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 attack, versus a combined 55 percent who say the former president is only somewhat responsible or not really responsible, according to results from the latest NBC News poll.
That's a shift from the Jan. 2021 NBC poll -- taken days after the attack -- when 52 percent said Trump was either solely or mainly responsible, compared with 47 percent who disagreed." https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/first-read/fewer-americans-now-say-trump-responsible-jan-6-nbc-news-poll-finds-rcna32074

#MagazineNewsweekTomPorter "Trump and his supporters are no strangers to spreading conspiracy theories to discredit opponents, with Trump launching his political career by spreading the groundless 'birther' conspiracy theory about President Barack Obama.
However it is the first time the president and his circle have focussed their ire on Hungarian-American financier Soros, a bogeyman for the far-right in the U.S. and Europe because of his funding for a range of liberal enterprises."

#WebsiteSpikedBrendanONeillAKABurntOakBoy "I find the lack of anger over the Waukesha massacre genuinely disturbing. Silence from Hollywood. Nothing from influencers. No blacked-out Instagram posts. Perfunctory comments from the White House. Six people killed, including this eight-year-old boy, Jackson Sparks, in what police believe was an act of intentional mass murder carried out with an SUV as the weapon. And yet there's none of the political or social-media outrage that greeted the vehicular attack in Charlottesville in 2017, in which one person was killed. This is identity politics. Identitarianism is now so deeply entrenched, so sewn into the moral outlook of the supposed smart set, that they even weigh up the worthiness of victims according to their identity, and the identity of the person who attacked or killed them. It amazes me that more people cannot see how horrible and dehumanising this new hyper-racialism has become."

"I went to a breakfast joint yesterday. After I was told it was a 50 minute wait, I started to leave. As I was, an elderly man was also leaving, looked at me, and saluted. I was wearing a baseball hat with the US flag on it. He said, 'I always salute the flag.'
If I'm ever in a foxhole fighting for my freedom, I would want him in there with me. Not a dozen walking billboards of anti-government woke flag burning people who jump at everything they don't like. Not a bunch of loonies who think it's ok to break the law by breaking into a US government building wearing phony patriotic crap, walking hand in hand next to neo-nazis.
I'll take the elderly patriot any day."

Addendum this music video: #2024_TomMacDonaldMeVsYou https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=najeyO0CuXw reminds me of the same sort of argument, centring the belief that political difference (in this case between #OrgClassifPPUSDemocraticParty.s and #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOP.s) is opposite but equal - cancelling each other out i.e. a #ReasoningFallacyZeroSumThinking. [Wikipedia] The point that 'politicians are all the same' also feels very #BehaviourDefeatism.ist (saying something about the lack of #PhenomnAgencyEmpowerment that is presumably, felt by those who are making the statement). The obvious question to ask is about who benefits from this position i.e. who's interests does disengaging from politics serve? I'm thinking here of #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump's misjudgement where be infamously told the #OrgSyndicateMilitiaUSProudBoys to #PleaStandBackAndStandBy and then followed on by condemning #CauseAntifa in relation to #PoliticsNationalismWhite violence at the #2017_UniteTheRightRally in #ToponymAmericaNorthUSVirginiaCharlottesville, where he sought to #BehaviourNormalisation.e (and therefore, #BehaviourTrivialisation.e) the violence with his statement: "you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides" [fact-checked]
