iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

"a whole nother" is such a cool phrase because it's this very specific playful rebracketing and it's really neat And it's NOT an infix whatever anyone tells you 😤

So not only has the Onion been making this exact same joke for several years, the fake name associated with the photo in the article, “Chief Longtoe” is pretty racist. And it turns out Ashley called them out about it *last year* as well. Ben has yet to respond.

There seems to be this weird idea in a lot of NT people's concept of neurodivergence that if you don't diagnose it, it doesn't exist. That is not how literally any aspect of reality works. Under diagnosing ADHD or Autism or Dyslexia etc won't make life any easier for the people with them.

Throwback to when AI bros were saying they were digital artists because they both used technology to make art. So as a digital artist I found a rock, burnt some sticks, and made a busty dragoness out of nothing but shit I had in my backyard. Nothing will stop real artists from making real art.

I also think, connecting to this kind of nostalgia, these folks *also* have incorrect understandings of what the USA and Europe were like in the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s. At best they're thinking about what rich families in TV shows looked like, not the median household. bsky.app/profile/snar...

This is a bonkers question in so many directions, just remarkably revealing in the amounts of racism involved. Even before you raise the technology issue, this is, "Can ~500m people with PPP adjusted gdp of ~$2tn beat ~1.6bn people with PPP adjusted gdp of ~$16tn." Like, LOL, no, obviously.

The main undercurrent in this kind of post is the intersection of "I want video games to make me feel twelve again" and "the only valid life experience is my own", which is a very immature way of viewing things and engenders the inhibition of empathy.

Simply put, the fatal flaw of even radical liberalism is that it can't prevent billionaires, or even sees billionaires as a "necessary evil" - because they think billionaires create wealth. Again, lacking a Labour Theory of Value means you can't see the masses as having power except that of numbers.

... and because the soi-disant Marxist Left hasn't kept up with it, this is why they're becoming conservative populists, because they're chasing a "class base" which was liquidated under neoliberalism and whose fragments (as with all fragmented classes) are gravitating to conservative populism.

Is that the *industrial* working class in today's Western nations (as opposed to, say, China)? To say "no" is like swearing in church to anyone who was politically trained in Western Leninist groups. Neoliberalism has irrevocably changed *where* value is generated in the "advanced" economies...

The revolutionary working class, in Marx's category, are: a) that segment of society which owns no property; b) whose labour creates the most surplus value (defined as the value they produce minus what they earn); c) whose conditions of life predispose them to institute socialized property.
