  • Alan Ritchson for B.J. Blazkowicz

  • I hope this isn't the main takeaway from this essay - the essayist confesses his own experience has repudiated this chart.

    It assumes in spite of heavy propaganda and social pressure that individual people can accurately evaluate an opaque hierarchical system as changeable and/or 'totalizing.' He viewed Trump as proof that the neoliberal system is not totalizing, that system change is possible.

    Surprise! He was wrong.

  • Wait, so scientists are saying Tesla Cybertrucks were a bad idea? That doesn't make any sense, Elmo is a genius.

  • I think the post image has a tighter vertical crop, but a higher resolution than this one.

  • For the documentary aspects of it, yeah.

  • It's mostly a collection of found news footage, shots lifted from other dystopian films, and a low-budget self-narrated life of a silent women of the future living in the rubble of a mall in San Fransisco. The future fiction parts feel over the top coming from September 2022 when it was announced, or even October 2024 when it was released, but in July 2025 it definitely hits different.

    The documentary parts take up the lion's share of the run-time, and are relevant to our role as citizen news aggregators. It puts the right-wing news actors and politicians in their proper context, and is a good summary of what we're up against.

  • No worries. Why did you think this was spam?

  • I love the meme is based on the tarot art of 7 of swords carrying swords and the 9 of swords mounted on the wall, and is consistent with the number of items collected increasing from left to right :)

  • This is a tedious recording of two people, one of whom doesn't understand how to play nor cares to learn, try and suffer through an unpopular discontinued collectible card game. No wait there's more: they also engage in annoying small-talk about their lives.
