NY Post confection about some truffle-eating take on current events and global protests and such
Shadow actors working overtime, y'all. But just take Rupert Murdoch's word for it, as to the completely organic nature of this groundswell of civic ourage. For my part, i don't imagine spontaneous combustion tends to work OT like this, or much like a contagion. Not in our sewn-up world of players, claquers and secret central committees. Just ask the spontaneously gay frogs. Or the State-employed agents provocateur at the Seattle protests of 1999 and present at every other major political conflagration since, logically. Or ask me about Charlottesville: I appear by default and reasonably good effort of research to be an expert in that grotesque, deliberately manufactured situation, sadly.
Saw a television-commercial advertisement this weekend: Two young black girls who host like a Disney or Nickelodeon show, meant to be like watched by their crazed pre-teen gal demographic. They were promo-ing the awful show. They were dressed daintily as strippers, make no mistake, though the flashy boas around their necks tried to provide some Rockette's-style cover. I'm just too over-saturated and hip to fall for it, in 2019. The smaller girl, aged no more than 11, was to no perceptible point saying,
"Work It!! ... Own it!!"
There was another verb-based exhortation ending in "it!" that went between these two and i wish i could remember it but the point is the gross sensualist inanity of the scene. And hey what do you know, also the gross sexual impunity of it. The patent sexualization of children, which effort is a linchpin of the debased and totally amoral system we're in. I suspect that some canny producers and directors knew better than to dress two small white women/girls/pre-teens like paid night strumpets. Black ppl are permitted greater degrees of sexual wantonness, after all, and they're used as vectors (not quite an Agent, more of a depersonalized Force) for the delivery of many sexual and physical messages to the larger depraved culture. Masters of historical american ribaldry, even to this day. Taken from a bland cultural viewpoint, at least, or a hierarchical, top-down one. Also i figure that the conscious use of this pre-teen (the exhorter) next to the less strident actual teen of apparently 13-14 or so is meant as a kind of cover or corrosive effect of license by proximity. Every consumer is coaxed and then supposed to admire and emulate the more established one. Until your bitter rivalry and in some cases contempt for that other class (or race, or generation, or gender, or sexual identity) becomes in whatever moment more useful to whatever group is selling you whatever it is that they're selling or using for you and your child's indoctrination.
Anyway i'm not giving lessons here in how to navigate this current swampgauntlet of neo-satanic cultural confusion. You're on your own there i've probably done more than my part of fatuous town-crier advising. In fact i know i have, over the last two decades and loose change. What i am saying is to watch your kids and have some fucking mindful dignity if you're a parent god damn it.
What i am definitely saying is that if you showed one day of modern television to any random non-psychotic citizen from 25 years ago, a citizen from just about any land, developed or not, they would be horrified and go "Wtf is this child prurience pawned off as progress? Wtf has happened? When did it become normal to make children act so lewdly and lasciviously and like mini-35 yo's from NYC or San Fran? What epidemic of pedophilia and irresponsible adulting (not merely parenting) has warped society like this?"
Answering this question takes time and leads the honest person down some truly grimy and wicked rabbit holes. It eventually even leads a person to be disgusted with grab-ass, pale bouts of madness and fury over the POTUS of the day, the du jour hysteria-node or -button, the far too easily provoked lunacy of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Donald Trump is one person and yes a cipher and a symbol for a larger sort of deadly factionalism that grips the contemporary political world, granted, and also one for the mode of Power we have to deal with in the world of humans: bloodline power which throughout time resembles the operational ethic and methods of Gangster-syndicates or Mafias. He remains therefore a useful figurehead and bludgeon to corral the public into endless feuding that more and more seeks to address/modify major existential issues. Role of The State and its idea of fractious social order, Role of Technology, Role of the Increasingly Useless or Expendable Individual Human Being who does not belong to a sufficiently powerful sodality or group or robot product-line and is a manifest threat to Nature/Climate/Environment. That's us, you and I, a disease and a threat to robots. I humbly suggest trying as hard as possible not to make all of this methodical and unhealthy change-making any easier for those that are trying to effect it. One obvious means of accomplishing this negative effort is to raise your very young adults properly, and positively; Not to be identity fetishists, or amoral, infantilized and narcissist idiots, as the odds do indeed predict, these days. There, you see, inevitably i had to give advice, as i am childless.
So, in summation, fuck little Greta the Outrage Tulpa, and fuck the stealth kabbalist Celine Dion and her morbid baby clothing, and fuck Barack Obama and the CIA-satanist clique that hatched him in the lab. "Trump," the experienced and variously mobbed-up show-runner simply does not rise to my disdain, it is all far too fat and slow a target. Otoh, his rise to power and his precise lineage, as well as the operations and guiding messianic philosophy of his faction are much, much more interesting than anyone here in the lumpen public is very close to being capable of addressing. Because that takes work, and humble time and effort. Admitting the lavish ignorance which is the basic birth-right of our species in this age. Even some actual listening is required. But you know, most of our mental operations in 2019 seem to be spent grafting ourselves to emphatic but poorly-willed and -informed, glossary, internet-based opinions on this or that prescribed topical scrap of political "news." That is, when we're not parenting laboriously or slobbering over "realizing" ourselves like good shadow-tricked, pseudo-Gnostic lemmings what can't get enough of the scent of the ass of the lemming in front of them, even or especially if we disapprove of their politics. The kind of sad life-form that can be neatly entrained and whose random political mono-manias smoothly inserted into one of their several well-conditioned orifices.
Also, Feminism and the healthy kind of self-love very rarely equate to a standardized glorification of 11 year-olds stripping for the sheer pleasure of it. Either on children's TV, or in the gay cabarets of the enlightened coastal territories, or on Saturday and Sunday at the Public Library.
Any effort so vast as transforming human conception of its own culture into an entirely new thing and dependent on entirely new modes of morality in all spheres of life, is of course going to look at the children as a tool and a valuable resource for that change. And of course as the objective of that change. I could scribble on and on about this theme but i'm tired of it, i'm very tired of seeing how (the ever more methodical Plan and planning of) "culture" and its individual targets are acting and treating one another. It is all conflict and self-adoration, all the time. Managed and synthetic conflict: as you will find all of it implicitly encouraged in the reporting of all news organizations, let alone of Rupert Murdoch and DT and BHO.
