mnijem da je problem u uteranosti viših klasa (menadžeri i profesori) u laktanje za stabilno mali (i relativno sve manji) komad ukupnog kolača, u razbarušenom kapitalizmu (neću reći poznom jer je ta dijagnoza već prežvakana)

Sada je na red došao PMC.

Не бих се сложио да је то цео брод тонуо па се палуба по палуба налазиле под водом, тј не да је то главни узрок. Пре ће бити да је то од разуларења капитализма од регантачеромике наовамо, кад је врхушка кренула да отима све више и више, на рачун свих испод себе. То је онда повукло и читав брод, али спижђавање радништва, па онда и средње класе је старије од тог сумрака запада.

“The 2020 reckoning was righteous and a victory” is a stance that has value even though I think it’s wrong.” “I got carried away in 2020 and looking back I admit that we were all overheated and got carried away in our rhetoric, and I’m a little embarrassed about it now” has value. “The cause was righteous, the strategy was misguided” has value. “The movement was fine until corporations and the Democrats began to take it over” has value. Pretending that nothing happened has no value, other than the only value our media class seems to pursue: the value of never, ever being owned. That’s what I think this is all about, this reflexive insistence that 2020 is the distant past, that really it wasn’t that big of a deal - if you acknowledge that there was this big political moment, that you and all your friends believed in it, that you yelled and marched and beat a drum for it, and then that moment failed according to its own outsized demands, well, then maybe you’ve been owned. Maybe you’ve been made to look foolish. Maybe you don’t actually exist at a permanent remove from ordinary human frustration and disappointment. Maybe you can fail, can be hurt, can be gotten to. And we can’t have that. So you look at the excess and failure of a passionate moment, when you allowed yourself to get carried away, and you say oh, well, hey. That was so long ago, and it wasn’t a really big deal. I have never, ever been owned.

I was able to get the Washington Post review of my book corrected because the reviewer dismissed my claim that many in the media defended the riots of that summer, saying that I had cited only one source; the correction was issued because I had in fact cited nine such sources. Completely aside from the point about my book, though, I just had to shake my head at the pretense - could there really be anyone who lived through 2020 who was so shameless as to deny the fact that there many public defenses of the riots? I would say such defenses were, in fact, ubiquitous. Have we really reached that level of kayfabe about four short years ago, that we deny that reality? Defenses of the protests, of the protests that turned violent, of the looting, of all of it, were not just totally unremarkable in normie-ass liberal spaces but expressed with vicious fervor. Now people write in the Washington Post that none of that ever happened. And if you can’t talk about the past because people are busily erasing it, afraid to be embarrassed by how earnest they were about it all… how does anything ever get better?
