• “Be careful who you pretend to be.”
• “We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”
• Mother Night.
• neoliberal monsters
• thoroughly betrayed what they previously upheld as their core values
• they closely resemble the people they used to unsuccessfully attempt to “wake up” through protest — callous, disinterested and pre-programmed.
• Neoliberalism is the flip side of the coin that has neo-conservatism on the other side.
• They never discuss the war crimes and all around hawkishness of the Democratic administrations for which they voted.
• So-called radicals, would-be revolutionaries, pretended to understand that the liberation of the human race had to derive from The People ourselves and would never be issued to us by means of an intrinsically corrupt political system
• Yet, when their supposedly “lesser-of-two-evils” candidates win, the lesser-of-two-evils voters behave as though they are satiated
• silence necessary critiques that should be brought forth resoundingly against unacceptable policies (irrespective of party affiliation).
• the hypocrisy of The New Neoliberals is acute, pronounced and absurd
• dehumanizing medical mandates
• shun the vaccine injured
• Genocide in Gaza — when Democrats do genocide, it’s genocide-light. You know, like Bud-light or Marlboro-light. Genocide under a democratic administration is the low calorie version.
• War with nuclear potential in Ukraine
• Censorship
• It was the “liberals”, however, (well groomed by neoliberalism) who spearheaded “cancel culture” and various censorship measures in the name of biosecurity during Covid
• Their tendency to overreact indicates the burdensome cost of sustaining a contradiction over a prolonged period of time.
