I'm hut. I'm the guy who sits in the hut. ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ง โบ (I also share the special mushrooms that I found when I went to pee in the woods).
It's just nonsense with key words thrown in to make it sound insightful.
- Most people are unaware and do no care about gender politics. Because most people are not online dweebs like the people who regularly visit 4chan. The entire world turns without caring about these issues that are most pressing to 4channers.
- Autonomic means something happening you're unaware of. So they're saying "most people are unaware of the feedback loops they're unaware of." But throwing in autonomic sounds good and they probably read "autonomic intelligence" in some trash rant on /pol/ or some pop sci article about AI.
- Word salad. the unconscious intelligence controlled market is moving to content marketing and that means narratives and narratives are bad because I have a 4th grade understanding of philosophy. Hey, it's all narratives. A biology book is a bunch of narratives. Materialism is a narrative. Everything we know about the world is a story we tell ourselves. This guy is literally writing a narrative and praising a narrative from a video game while lamenting how everything is narratives.
- Blames the lack of shared cultural narrative, aka lack of homogeneity, and corporate idolatry. These are idealistic conceptions of what's happening. In other words, they view things happening based on ideology (diversity) and bad religion (idolatry) rather than material conditions. It's not the profit seeking nature of corporate entities that's the problem, it's the individuals who worship corporations. It's not that the only way to make money creating content, is to create content that sells. And if the desire isn't there, it's not that companies create the desire through marketing. It's the SJWs trying to erase 'cultural identity' aka not suck off the Western Canon in every bit of media or artistic pursuit. It's a child's view of the world.
- As others pointed out, the "This is why SJW stuff is hitting hard..." line is absolutely stupid. This is someone who can recognize corporate overreach and how media is a problem, but they attribute the wrong causes and even the wrong outcomes. Companies relying on an experiment to predict the markets creates a nightmare of world economies relying on hearsay from dumb machines and everyone having to pretend it's right just so everything doesn't come crashing down. Then there's hypernormalisation (pretending I didn't get that from Curtis) where world leaders create a false reality rather than acknowledge the real complexity of the world. Those combined means SJW stuff happens? Bananas.
- "I'm not saying it's going to be Terminator, but it's going to be Terminator"
- "People have their lives contextualized by inhuman machinations" so fucking close to getting it. It's not even funny. Then hard curve away from class consciousness into absolute ahistorical nonsense about religion being diminished.
- What bizarre way of thinking. Nazis and Commies are fanatics who would be in monistaries living peacefully if we just had a more culturally homogeneous society. And if the world was broken up in to many homogeneous societies. And we had pure capitalism (aka no communism). If we had no communism, a shared cultural identity, no SJW stuff, proper segregation, then of course Nazis wouldn't have had to do the holocaust like the algorithm told them. They could have been like nice fanatical monks. But the computers that made the false autonomic systems forced them to eliminate all that stuff from their society.
- Muh russia. Muh russia + Adam Curtis + crypto fascism + vidya channer. What a confused individual. This is what happens when you don't know shit and are trying to piece together a cohesive world view from tons of media. All the while being very careful to not actually learn anything, just memorize a bunch of...narratives that you can string together into incoherent rants about how the world really works.
- Russia has avant garde propaganda. China censors. The US simply has too much information flowing freely. loving every laugh. No mention of one of the largest and most active intelligence agencies/propagandist in the world. Talk about narratives. The US is just too pure.
- "I want mass violence to happen, for the people causing the SJW stuff to be harmed by a mob, so I can watch from my computer screen and feel like I'm in a cool cyberpunk world. Just like my vidya Deus Ex."
This person is insufferable. The good news is that they probably don't bother many people with this outside of 4chan.
You know why more men die in war? Other men. Men made the rules that women can't do anything physical. Men run the countries that enter into war. Yes women (ie Thatcher) can enter into war too but my point is that all these things that feminists supposedly deny is caused by other men. Trying to equate feminism as a force for toxic gender politics at the same level as the toxic society men created and maintained for hundreds of years is pretty disingenuous.
This whole thing comes off like a chud trying to be neutral as possibly by admitting that men can be a little rambunctious but we need to seriously talk about this tumblr screenshot I found of some caricature of a feminist saying all men need to be castrated. Because that kind of toxicity is the same as women not being allowed to ride a train because their uterus might fall out.
And there's a fundamental economic component to "left-winger" that you can't leave out. Telling people that being a left winger means you do both sides shit in culture war debates is wrong and hurts online leftism more than open a door for pipeline purposes.
