brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 09/10/2026the war-dot-gov ad that just aired during the MLB playoffs is somehow more kitschy and absurd than any of the Federal Network broadcasts in "Starship Troopers" I'm not linking it 010

brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Every mass movement attracts people addicted to the adrenaline rush of hatred and antisocial behavior when it's "righteous" and therefore guilt-free. They're not sacrificing themselves for a cause; they're sacrificing a cause for themselves 010

It takes a unique combination of evil and ignorance to be a fascist. 47520

brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 07/10/2026For some, "Israel" and "Palestine" don't refer to actual peoples and places, they're symbols for whatever is important to you. And the "solution" to the "conflict" is your personal fantasy utopia 0120

brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The sneering tone shows that Bloom never approached King's work on its own terms. Engaging with King's fiction was beneath him; REAL literature isn't about magic or ghosts or gore unless it's The Tempest or Hamlet or Macbeth or Titus Andronicus or Midsummer Night's Dream. Which are different 010
brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 05/10/2026this is not only correct, it hits Bloom's central weakness. Charles Dickens and Alexandre Dumas were quite similar to the "penny dreadful" writers whom Bloom uses to dismiss King 110

brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The main reason people vehemently insist the vibecession was rooted in real circumstances is: they truly believe Life Was Intolerably Bad in 2024, cannot explain how, but refuse to admit that the propaganda worked on them 110
brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The average voter in 2024 was blitzed 24 hours a day with the message that Life Is Intolerably Bad when life was completely normal. Especially in terms of wages, prices, unemployment, and consumer spending. No one was immune to a propaganda campaign this relentless & ubiquitous 130
brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Ohhh I didn't realize that! I too thought it came out much later 101
brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 03/10/2026People discuss antisemitism as if it's a rational phenomenon, tied to actual people, places, and events. But that's not how it's ever worked. Rational frameworks assembled on top of it never fully hide or explain the primal, emotional phenomenon at its center 020
brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 03/10/2026My theory is: you can't pin a global conspiracy on trans people. They don't have that kind of power. So it comes back to the secret global puppetmasters it always comes back to 120
brian b. levinson @brianblevinson.bsky.social · 03/10/2026This fascinates me. The killer was in love with a trans person, and MAGA believes that "trans ideology" is evil and violent. The propaganda practically writes itself. And yet, they ignored that angle and went with, "he was *actually* killed by Jews" 230
