Unlike the Disney version, de Villeneuve's original novel ALSO has the enchantress who cursed the Beast be a romantic reject instead of an I'll-treated guest. So I guess the moral here really is that of 18C French high society: fuck everything no matter how questionable.
Although I suppose it does speak to Madame de Villeneuve's talent that, like Hans Christian Anderson, her invented fairy tale was such a perfect duplicate of folk tales that you'd never know where it came from unless you were told.

This must be that esoteric Straussian writing I've heard about.
At this point, who are they kidding? "Participation retards self-government" you say right after praising Robert Moses for being a old-school tyrant.... just admit that caring what plebs think is dumb and that progs' pathological desire for consent engineering MADE THEM dumb.

Remember: ALL journalism is sophistical. Not "liberal," or "conservative," or "controlled" journalism; ALL of it. Keep this in mind even and *especially* when journos happen to be right for whatever reason.
The reason that other journos hate Greenwald is that he's bought into the journo ideology so much that he's open about what it is. He doesn't even concive that normal people would be fundamentally revolted by the essence of his profession, like his less dramatic colleagues.
It's the same reason other gangsters disliked Al Capone. Was he doing anything differently? Not really, but he didn't give a fuck if normal people knew what exactly that was. "Hey," Greenwald says, "of course journalism isn't about truth. What're you, retarded ? 😂"

Me, a decade ago living with my parents: "Of course tenants should have rights. Landlords are scum"
Me now, having helped my 4 foot tall landlady evict wife-beaters, drug addicts, & Ethiopians: "She should have the right to have us executed at any time for any reason"
I never really understood why our ancestors were so reluctant to abandon blood feuds until you spent 4 hours at a tenant dispute resolution agency trying to make a clerk understand that the guy she gave leave notice a year ago for doing hard drugs should be physically removed.
"Is he a physical danger to any of the residents?"
"He does meth and he leaves the door and ground floor windows open all day, so we keep having mouse infestations."
"But has he threatened one of you?"

It's funny how I was never a Marxist even when I was in the left, but I learned what "Malthusianism" means in Marxism better than @mrsmcgee16's critics. (from EMJ's "Libido Dominandi," wrt Alexandra Kollontai's drive to legalize abortion and the anti-Malthusians who fought it)
Stalinists: "So, if human labour is the source of value, how could there ever be "unnecessary" people in a socialist polity?"
Abortionist and euthanasist 🏴s: "Because I hate my parents and love casual sex."
And damn, she's gone again. Aimee Terese and Orcbrand should start a "Jack's most wanted" gang.

Normies get confused when they read things like this. "That's never happened and it's nearly 100% certain it never will. How can he lie like that?"

What you have to understand is that the journo brain thinks only in narratives. It literally cannot understand external reality.
Once you understand this, the correct question to here isn't "why do you think a blog post will inspire murders?" but "what, exactly, do the people who pay you get out of you believing this story?"

Well, that and "how many women have you raped?" since he's a male feminist.
.@KatzOnEarth, of course, can't understand the substance of Tracey's critique. As a journalist, he can conceive of a separation between the concepts of writing, propaganda, and emotional manipulation no more than a Roman pleb could conceive of a separation between church & state.

Every day I learn a new reason to hate this country. Image
Most people know about Canada inventing multiculturalism and spreading our shitty musicians, but there's a whole hidden substrate of ways we've made the world worse. Image
And, while I'm at it, reposting this from the Telegram where I quoted a (since changed 🤔) wiki article explaining how Canada is responsible for Mindgeek, the porn industry's equivalent to Standard Oil. Image
