it's like trying to imagine the internet back in the 70s

Marshall McLuhan world before the personal computer

it was like tv except you were on tv at the same time

like Happy Days, except you were on Happy Days with the Fonz while you were watching it

trying to navigate the epoch before it was upon us didn't help

it's like we were watching out for what the dystopia would be

would it be like 1984 ?

would it be like Brave New World ?

would it be like Fahrenheit 451 ?

now that we are here,

with the masses adopting Telescreen in order to access the Brave New World resulting in book burnings

I don't see how there was some political solution in the past that could have avoided this

Marshall McLuhan said so at the time, this is coming, there is nothing you can do to stop it

like the Communists didn't come to round the guns up in the end

they brainwashed an entire generation to fear their own guns

so they would be falling over themselves to hand them in

Agree
so within this Information War paradigm, violence is information, information is force

the Woke understand, the first amendment is the core of the religion, that is the temple

but they don't need tanks to overrun it, not in Marshall McLuhan world

this is how the Woke are routing the Boomer liberals

the Woke were born in Marshall McLuhan world, they understand that speech is violence

the liberals say that's crazy, as it is overrunning their institutions like a virtual Red Army

the bourgeois liberals keep invoking "free speech" & "vote against this"

while the radicals simply prosecute an information war by any means available, no holds barred

Yes, we were overtaken by cowardice: democracy was the weapon and women were the adversary.

it's really only one type of women who become the Temperance Ladies

bourgeois middle to upper class college educated yet low status white women

same with black people

there is really only one cohort of blacks who are Woke

the affirmative action black liberals arts college students

Glenn Loury calls them the "people with three names", like Ibram X. Kendi

they don't feel like they can compete, they're insecure, they are low status in their own minds

that's why they need to puff themselves up with three names

these low status academics have no choice but to be Woke, otherwise they would be in a van down by the river

They beat us because we were too courteous to argue with them. My wife inhibited me, as I suspect most wives did. If I was a bachelor I would have eviscerated those mutterfukkers.
