@OttokarHochman @KeyTryer The thing is that people who are most consistently pro-AI art are not so for based iconoclastic reasons but because, they, like legitimately enjoy it aesthetically (think Facebook boomers)
@OttokarHochman @KeyTryer Though this itself produces cool second order iconoclastic effect where various artists are forced to squeal and cringe and suffer as their pretences to some high transcendental artistic vision is debased and exposed as mere mechanical product without higher value
@OttokarHochman @KeyTryer Like literally the reason AI art is so widespread is because certain types of people actually appreciate it for its aesthetic quality completely unironically. What it does is just exposes the actual aesthetic preferences of the masses

This is very good, though I want to add one more and perhaps more decisive way in which the great 60s Feudal revolution destroyed Liberalism.

🧡
While Liberals were concerned with achieving at least procedural equality ("equality before the law"), in practice, historical Liberalism was fine with certain residual formal inequalities (wealth-based suffrage, compromises with the old order like the house lords etc.)
What imo was absolutely core to Liberalism was exactly that everything was formalised, legible, procedural. Famously, Liberals wanted *Written constitutions*

Something almost nobody notices about America, and what takes like this obscure, is that America is actually a very *old* country. Most other countries had some sort of cataclysmic revolutionary event that completely restructured politics and society in the past 250 years.
Some even had several. Conquests, occupations, secessions, social, political, and anti-colonial revolutions. There's regularly something like a *reset*

America is weird for this reason. A Byzantine Ancien RΓ©gime no one really understands.
American global cultural hegemony has the curious effect of making America very poorly understood, among Americans and foreigners alike.

I just do not think this is true.

People on the Right tend to exaggerate the "hostile, ethno-nepotistic voter bloc" element of the Mamdani phenomenon due to inaccurately transposing conditions from places like London to NYC.

But Mamdani clearly hates White people.

1/10
I say that characterising him as a hostile ethnic takeover is inaccurate because, to my knowledge, his support base is still largely White and the ethnic voter blocs support Cuomo, so Mamdani is best seen as a transitional figure imo. But his hatred and malice are palpable.

2/10
People talk a lot about his "Punish White neighbourhoods for being White" policy but the most revealing statement I've seen from him is actually this:

An issue I have with the midwit thesis is that the average leftist appears to be just stupid and misinformed in fairly trivial ways. No complex postmodern mumbojumbo but straightforward stuff. For instance many leftists believe "race" is actually synonymous with "skin color"
This is one thing you can't unsee once you see it. They believe race is just skin pigmentation. When you tell them about race and IQ their mind translates it as "increasing melanin decreases IQ" seriously. They are not smart, they are not midwits, they are just stupid.
This is for instance why you see them claim prehistoric Britons were "Black" because they may have had darker skin pigmentation. They are just incredibly ignorant and proud of it.

The reason this discourse makes the rounds every few months on the Right is that the word 'Nationalist' in our current political culture has the association of 'Low-status ignorant prole' so people try to shirk association with it 🧡1/10
It's the same reason 'Catholic Integralism' is so popular in some circles - @bronzeagemantis talks about it - It's a way to be edgy Right-Winger on every issue while avoiding the one actually controversial issue that could get you in trouble: Race and mass immigration. 2/10
"Haha look at me how extreme my positions are: I am a monarchist! I support creating a Catholic Theocratic Monarchy! Bet you never met anyone as edgy as me! Also no women's rights, gay sex or abortion. Woah so edgy!" 3/10
