Most of the alt media is just rebooting the boomer propaganda for the following generations. They're hoping it sticks, and it looks like it is. 🤦♂️

@jazzilla It's about time I start my podcast where I make fun of podcasters by playing clips of podcasters playing clips from corporate media.

@Jen In most matters, most alt media is driving home the lies of the 20th century, solidifying the post war consensus (the boomer truth regime).

truthout was one website i followed for awhile, 15 years ago now iirc. i guess i noticed that trend and stopped following it. i kind of pick n choose and always look for opposing perspectives. there was a piece this morning on substack about the boomers that had some interesting bits: https://open.substack.com/pub/jmpolemic/p/vassal-of-the-boomer-regime

@Jen I have a problem with this statement: > It was due to an increasingly powerful consumer culture, which prized being cool, and valued being fulfilled and comfortable above all else.This is an approved, promoted, and repeated critique. It's allowed because it completely obviates the facts and puts blame on the victim.This is a repeating pattern, and a problem with most mainstream analysis of this topic.

i stumbled on that vassals piece in the comments on this piece:https://open.substack.com/pub/aporiamagazine/p/the-social-conservatives-are-not?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=3iv6qi wonder if the "coolness" of the boomers depends on whether they were in a family with upward mobility or not. sister's in-laws fit the quintessential boomer stereotype - right down to the "grandkids should be in a separate room while the adults are having dinner" characteristic. my in-laws in impoverished rural WV, not so much.

@Jen That's a much better piece. I think the economic factor is coincident not causal. You will naturally be able to consume and exercise more of your social engineering if you have more education, money, and time. So these things will trend together, but only because one is a requirement of receiving the other.I think the cause of adoption of social engineering (and all the things that come with that) is education and comfort in the absence of real world understanding.

how do you explain so many fringe cases of "meh, not following that plan." that is, remote workers with megacash relocating to little towns and adopting more conservative principles than their social engineering would dictate? that's what we're seeing here. software engineers, able to work remotely or creating their own business, living rural. adopting a homesteading lifestyle in some cases. if voting mattered, i think they may even be more selective in who they vote for (at the local level)... preferring more libertarian leaning candidates.

@Jen Sounds like we're in agreement. Not sure where the conflict is. Libertarianism is an approved post WW2 consensus political ideology. A perfect fit for this.The political leanings that were problematic for the regime (the old right) were eliminated from American politics and culture with mockingbird. It was very comprehensive & successful, covering religion, culture, politics, and education.The 50s had the last OR books written in the mainstream, Buckley had chased it out by the 90s.

i don't see a conflict. not all discussions have to arise from a conflict -- they can be to clarify thought. 🙃

@Jen Oh ok. Well I explained how educated ppl stay inside the planned politics. You asked the question as if somehow that's not explainable from my previous statements.

@Jen In my experience as a rural software engineer, they're mostly not able to escape it. They stay inside planned political paradigms.The only way I got out was to read the historical political writings of previous ppl who escaped our political paradigms, the PR, the big lies of the 19 & 20 C's, learning abt mockingbird & social engineering agendas.It helps to go thru the exercise of building your own Oligarchy power stack using the little info we have. The motivations & incentives.

@Jen I'm not sure where you're head is at and that matters. Ppl need to be ready to change and that's made easier by taking smaller steps to the next thing. Without knowing you, i'll just throw the Ron Unz WW2 archive at you. I wish I could do better. But all audio playable. It's not the most exciting podcast material, but some is, depending on your reaction to novel truths & connection to current Events.Start w/"Why Everything You Know About World War II Is Wrong"https://www.unz.com/page/world-war-ii-articles/

@Jen My current political understanding came from reviewing history and reading the ppl who personally overcame the political ideologies of their days, James Burnham and Carl Ogelsby, some Anton Chaitkin, and the follow on politics of the old right authors like Samuel T Francis (Power and History), Paul Gottfried (chronicles), Ron Unz (numerous reviews of the old right with a current lens), Neema Parvini (the populist Delusion).Many others & podcasts, some listed in my pinned tweet.

@Jen Me too, I'm all audio. I think it's the best way anyways. No distractions.
