The NPR CEO tweets are great fun and support my thesis that parody, satire, and fiction can no longer compete with reality (she’s a better Titania McGrath than Titania McGrath), but the fact that this intellectually vacant and ideologically excited midwit…
…was chosen to lead one of the few remaining viable legacy news orgs is also an important marker for NGO teleology and where things are headed.

There’s no reason that NPR has to care about its mission, reach, or whether its listener base is shrinking.

NPR can regress into…
…smug self satisfaction, focusing primarily on the wants and needs of its employees and a small segment of the public that is closely ideologically aligned.

The narcissism and self entitlement of NGO employees is a constant force that threatens to pull these orgs off course…

For those of us who managed to remain sober during this period of widespread ideological intoxication it felt unreal and hallucinatory at the time.
If you managed not to be carried away by it, the complete untethering from reality of Western elites was fascinating to watch.

I have a friend in finance. During the pandemic they had a bunch of top epidemiologists and scientists on retainer who they could call up and ask what they really thought.

I think this is the future: even for matters of major public importance information is going to…
…become increasingly opaque and private and the delta between the quality of what’s publicly versus privately available is going to increase as public information becomes almost complete garbage.

Legacy media is mostly going to be a venue for ‘sponsored content’…
…from nat sec, NGOs, and whatever other interests are motivated to have their messaging pumped through.

Of course, there will continue to be room in legacy media for credentialed narcissists to showcase their thoughts and opinions, provided willingness to be paid in…

Progressives create entire academic fields that are fake.

For example, basically all social psychology is fake. The concepts are deranged and the studies never replicate.

Yet, progressives will absolutely believe all sorts of social science 'just so' stories that flatter...
...their prejudices even if the ideas have been thoroughly debunked.

Progressive epistemic rot is deep and will not be able to be addressed absent a large, concerted project that would be extremely difficult politically and result in many professionals with fake expertise...
...losing their jobs and becoming decredentialed.

Right wing fever dreams OTOH are loony and easy to debunk.

They're mimetic and silly and they aren't laundered through nat sec, the media, NGOs, and fake academic fields.

Libs can say, 'YAS!!! Men can get pregnant,' and...

Taibbi’s take is that Trump is a reaction to our politics becoming meaningless and subverted.

Both parties became neolib in the 90s with Dems giving up pretense of a labor party and supporting NAFTA.

There was agreement on interventionist foreign policy and the Iraq…
…debacle.

2007-2008 financial crisis Wall St got exactly what it wanted, first from Bush and then from Obama who put Geithner in charge of everything and did everything the banks wanted.

There was also an effective bipartisan consensus on allowing illegal immigration as…
…part of the unofficial neoliberal policy ‘package.’

This bipartisan ‘agreement’ made Washington folx and 0.01% elites extraordinary wealthy and took a great deal of what could be decided politically off the table.

The gains of neoliberal economic policy were not shared…

I only have contempt for libs crying hysterically about Steve Sailer.

We were doing well societally striving for equal opportunity and treating each other as unique individuals rather than race avatars.
…
…
For a number of reasons libs decided that wasn’t enough:

They were bored, they needed to channel religious impulses, Trump deranged them and they framed him purely in terms of racial grievance and ignored the traction of his critiques of neoliberalism and interventionism.
…
…
Libs were enthralled by the radicalism and ethnonarcissism of TNC, NHJ, et al. and when a drug addict died in a police altercation during peak COVID derangement that fit the racial tableau they enshrined the regressive, racialist ideology of ‘anti-racism’ in all the institutions.
