naive: "today I will read about chips and dip...a yakub psyop to manufacture desires in a libidinal economy????"

its amazing how a list of "American culture" is just disgusting garbage that corporations brainwashed them into enjoying. Like peanut butter which is of course a chalky tasteless food without all those unhealthy fats and salt/sugar

We also might shudder at the bologna sandwiches we were forced to eat, with their cold, slippery, overly thick slices. We protest — even riot — over the indignity of consuming bologna. "It’s been inserted into the national psyche of despicable foods, laughable foods," says Amy Bentley, professor of food studies at New York University. "‘That’s baloney, that’s crazy.’ That’s how we think of it. It’s been embedded in our brains that way."

"its crazy to be an authentic human with a soul who doesn't believe whatever Oscar Mayer's corporate advertisements say! You must be brainwashed by Russian propaganda to think Lunchables being served in schools is disgusting abomination. Actually, kids learn better if they don't have a cafeteria at their school serving actual food. We need to privatize and defund schools even more so they can't afford to pay for a single cafeteria worker" - finance imperialist PMC demons

Bologna was one of the more accessible meats of the early 20th century. It kept well and, most importantly during the Great Depression and the war-rationing era, it was cheap. Made out of discarded or fatty parts of meat, even organ meat in some places, bologna was more affordable than ham or salami. And other meats like turkey and roast beef were not easily produced and therefore less available to consumers, says Jason Falter, co-owner of Falters Meats in Columbus, Ohio.

the ideal, highly processed wage slave food, which they later exported to kids in their "future wage slave traning" schools

In the mid-20th century, the rise of the packaged food industry transformed bologna sandwiches into a shared cultural experience. Bologna became available on a mass scale as meatpackers began selling packaged and pre-sliced deli meats in supermarkets, an invention that the New York Times extolled as a time saver for homemakers. "It’s a truly industrial product," says Bentley, explaining that packaged foods like bologna took on a cultural cachet as consumers saw those goods as cleaner than meat at the butcher shop.

"consumers saw those goods as cleaner " the soy neoliberals who wrote this were unable to talk about the million dollar advertising agency that was doing propaganda techniques to psyop people to have this belief.

The popularity of chips and dip significantly increased in the United States during the 1950s, beginning circa 1954, due to changes in styles of entertaining in the suburbs and also due to a Lipton advertising campaign based upon using Lipton's instant dehydrated onion soup mix to prepare dip.

Chips and salsa, typically served using tortilla or corn chips, is a common type of chips and dip dish that gained significant popularity in the United States in the late 1980s.

    Banning BMF was a mistake and I think we should make an exception to the sectarianism rule for oracles and/or cranks

      disagree because if they're sectarian and rant like that then they're going to be like one step away from creating some new form of hitlerism

              I'm not really talking about BMF specifically

              But BMF has such wildly all over the place beliefs that I can't predict what they'll say in 2 years from now

                I know exactly what their politics were. They were hardline proletarian crank who hated middle class, radliberal and squishy left westoids. Who laser focused in on the “lesser evilism” of Chomsky and Bernie and DSA and Jacobin types, showing it to be fake and just as bad as naked reactionaries and DNC centrists

                  Are we just ignoring the weird cultural stuff they would focus on

                  Or the fact they would obsess over how real proles should eat bugs (ignoring beans and shit exist)

                        looks like someone other than BMF putting words in their mouth, not BMF saying that. Try again.

                        BMF often mocked hypocrisy and dishonesty, which confuses some people who have simple one-track minds and get mad when they hear trigger term they have been pavloved into having a knee-jerk reaction to.

                        This user saw BMF mocking the hypocrisy of middle class leftists by pointing out that they don't want to eat bugs but also don't want to be vegetarians, and assumed that he's pro-eating bugs instead of just mocking incoherent positions

                          I'm autistic so high level mocking sarcasm is lost on me. so what you're saying makes sense but "simple one track minds" is pretty out of line.

      Is it really sectarianism if it never targets any specific user?

      All of BMF's posts (and their comments, once they started commenting more) were one-off. They never got into an argument, or called any user out, beyond making fun of something specific they said in a tangential way.

      Also, anarchists are more sectarian against anarchists than BMF was sectarian against anarchists, it's not even close.
