Imagine being a goy and standing up and telling Jewish people they don’t know or understand their own fucking history. That Jews are ignorant and too uneducated to have correct opinions about the Jewish issue of our time that has broken families and communities. You absolute piece of trash.
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

Honestly, this is why a lot of folks who think class analysis begins and ends with Marx annoy me so much.
Putting aside the bad dialectics, it's just painfully incomplete as analysis in the modern framework.
NOT THAT IT'S BAD, but missing consequential angles, and Marx would agree with that!

Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.
We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.
We're not lounging around eating bonbons. We're trying to figure out how we're going to be able to pay rent next month.

One of the reasons that 'right-wing ideology appropriates absolutely everything' is their quixotic desire to make inherently uncool ideas seem cool. They despise the cultural currency and cachet that a wide variety artists hold and are forever engaged in a futile quest to capture a modicum of cool.
“In her interview with Hearon, Wachowski said that she was unsurprised conservatives have latched onto the film because ‘right-wing ideology appropriates absolutely everything.’”
Lilly Wachowski Has Learned to “Let Go” of the Right Wing Co-opting Her Work
During an interview with podcaster Caleb Hearon, the ‘Matrix’ codirector talked about conservatives embracing the concept of being “red-pilled”: “This is what fascism does.”

Just once I want one of these victim-blaming headlines to be phrased accurately: “Everyone With Any Real Power Over The Economy Has Purposely Made it So Young People Have No Spending Money”
“So the plan is to replace all their jobs with AI”
Five minutes later: “what do you mean, broke people don’t spend as much?”

If you absolutely need home cameras and doorbell cams and such, Reolink devices can function 100% without any access to the internet.
Combine that with a Home Assistant server and the only one who can see what's on your cameras is you.

'So much of it is indistinguishable from 4chan, just on a larger, more influential scale than ever before. I worry what that’s doing to the brains of people who don’t realize how little of it reflects reality outside of X.'
It has now been a year since I stopped posting on X. For @spitfirenews.com, I wrote about watching the platform I loved become a conduit for the worst extremism I've ever witnessed. I don't regret leaving. In fact, I wish I'd left even earlier.
