Starmer went directly to Palantir after the White House, how much of supposed new defence spending is just going to be a wealth transfer from public services to Silicon Valley, on top of the contracts Palantir and Anduril already have with the Imperialist British state?

The one thing going against academic philosophers is their inability to understand that just because your colleague is a ‘nice chap’ to you doesn’t mean they’re not a raving crank. CFA is even explicitly affiliated with FSU!

Keep an eye out for @/afcomm.org.uk, which has just followed me and is an obvious front for legitimating anti-trans propaganda in academia, alongside potentially legitimating Toby Young’s personal front for covid conspiracy-mongering and hate

So the editor of Sublation/Zer0 2.0 who was also a fellow at Orban's MCC (run by her PhD Supervisor, Frank Furedi) is now the senior editor at Compact magazine. It's almost like the entire thing was a crypto-fascist front. But no, it's 'woke cancel culture' to say that apparently

In England, they treat the economy like a household budget. Only instead of food, water and heating the priority is the Bombs and Guns fund. If you speak out and say this is a bad system, a man called Paul Mason refers you to Prevent.

I was recently leaked a document that was written by and for think tank and DNC affiliated policy wonks and circulated in private chats. It describes in unsparing terms the threat Curtis Yarvin, Neoreactionary tech founders, and Elon Musk pose to democracy. shatterzone.substack.com/p/democratic...

Weirdly, I don't think that any productive critiques of 'the left' are conveyed by delivering titbits to hostile rightist media about how mad leftists are based on anecdotes and social media posts. That's actually closer to LibsofTikTok, regardless of what you've actually written.

Does anyone who does an independent tape/record label that puts out metal albums follow me? I've finally sent something that I've been working on for Too Long out to some friends for review and the response has been extremely positive and it would be neat if someone put it out.

I think there is a lot of truth to this. And those of us who make philosophy content need to be self aware and self critical, and fight the temptation to use philosophy to make content and instead use the form of content to do philosophy in a public manner.

Debating reactionaries is never a good idea You might win on 'facts', but you'll always lose politically: they are not arguing in good faith, they want their ideas to become seen as acceptable in public discourse And by debating them, you're giving them what they want It really is that simple

Textbook case of mainstreaming of reactionary politics Mason blames 'the people' for his own reactionary take, avoiding responsibility - no one is forcing him to say that, not all evidence points to that 'truth' and most importantly what 'the people' think is heavily mediated by people like him 1/

Aktion T4 did not end because of protest. There was massive protest against it, but the Nazis did it anyway. Aktion T4 was suspended (but continued unofficially) as personnel and equipment was reallocated to the Final Solution and Soviet front. It stopped when the war ended, because we killed them.

By this stage, it's just impossible to pretend otherwise: if you still give reactionaries the benefit of the doubt, you are squarely on their side Claims of honest ignorance, imquiry and/or "centrism" were always political and enabled the reactionary resurgence. Now it is full, open complicity

Almost like the right isn't a political project so much as a libidinal formation- a way of organising cruelty for maximum effect, a way for sociophobes to join together so they don't feel so abject.
