Although I am loath to take Achille Mbembe's brilliant theory of Necropolitics outside of its original racialized context, Dr. Golden here makes a compelling argument about how the UK gov is creating an Mbembean "deathworld" for trans people at the moment Good thread

In my experience publishing is an industry run by cowardly managers at the behest of the most noxious vulture capitalists, a form of spread betting and elite reproduction posing as a vehicle for literary culture.

Straight from McLaren's Verdurin bio, so many Hitler particles: DPhil candidate at Oxford, 'grooming gangs', 'Yookay', Spengler, 'a synthesis of Anglicanism, Darwinism, and Neo-Paganism aimed at developing a more honourable attitude to the world', same publisher as Camp of the Saints and Camus...
Edward McLaren is a third year DPhil candidate at the University of Oxford studying Jane Austen and gentry blood myths. He is the author of Bothelford’s Gone, a novel about the grooming gangs in twenty-first-century Britain, the first part of his “YOOKAY” trilogy.
Edward combines a wide range of influences in his literary and academic work, drawing from postmodern and romantic visionaries like Gilles Deleuze and William Blake on the one hand, and the more directly political examples of Oswald Spengler and Henry St. John on the other. His long-term literary-theological project is a synthesis of Anglicanism, Darwinism, and Neo-Paganism aimed at developing a more honourable attitude to the world.

Glad there’s one journalistic outlet that’s covering the numerous connections between Oldspeak and several high-profile politicians and right-wing extremists. That said, the extent of Orr’s involvement with the fascist bookshop has not, in my opinion, been fully explored

At least with the British poshos the only way is down, the American socdem columnists write like they're temporarily embarassed staples on the network political talk show circuit. It's like Zhou Enlai vs Khruschev opposing directions in class treason.

Thing is with millionaire-funded socdem publications riding off the momentum of movements they're unaccountable to is they can just say stupid shit like this indefinitely. At least with the UK version it's a different kind of embarassing because none of the editors' schooling was free.

Over the last decade, there were two hypotheses: H1: the political right genuinely cared about threats to speech from the left. H2: they were using campus speech wars to impose their values and silence dissent. Today, the answer is clear, but I can't find any of the H1 people admitting their error.
