A dumb guy who's convinced themselves they're smart because they know some big words. I know the type; I am one.
I had a boss that would write an email and then go through it for ten to fifteen minutes just right clicking and changing words with outlook's built in thesaurus. I imagine he thought it made him sound smarter or more educated, but it was a train wreck.
I'd feel bad for how insecure he is if he wasn't also terrible
Damn, I have to wonder what it's like identifing with George Orwell and taking his criticisms at face value. Also gotta love the citations for meaningless bullshit, but not a single one for any of his COVID claims.
Like, yes, when the state has given up it's entire industrial capacity, the private sector steps in and uses crisis as an opportunity to consolidate power. That being said, this isn't some radical restructuring within the U.S. just an acceleration of already existing trends. Also, some nurses quit because of vaccine mandates, despite the fact that they are already mandated to take every other available vaccine, but far more quit because they had become swamped with work and completely burned out.
Like, I know this kind of guy, who talks to working class individuals and then thinks we should tail them on cultural issues, but if we tail the working class on these issues we will simply become libertarians, because that is what they have been primed to believe by billions of dollars of propoganda. If we were to listen to them exclusively, there is no class conflict, simply competition between individuals. That doesn't mean you can't listen to their concerns, but if does mean that you have to figure out where to nip this ideological horseshit when organizing, not simply nod and repeat it back to them.

Sort of like how mines will keep an elephant in a cage. If conditions start becoming dangerous, the elephant will eventually become poisoned well after everyone dies. Then they'll know that the air is toxic and can evacuate.
I read the whole thing and it's mostly pretentious drivel. The dude is both hyperonline and way undereducated.

Going up the Country : Why I left urban liberal hysteria behind - and in the process thwarted the plans of the World Economic Forum
The city depressed me. Precisely for its pastel-coloured shop windows and its “streets upon streets upon streets” (Morrissey), the park picnics and friend gatherings, public transport and cafés, the whole Goddamn meekness and safety-obsessed philistinism that stood in weird contrast to street lamps bearing stickers saying “System change not Climate change” or “Kill all TERFS”[1]. I knew at one point that in order to survive the cotton candy vulnerability of these über-lib monsters, I had to get away.
But country living, as we are told, is the new intifada.
incredible stuff (Morrissey)
"Streets upon streets upon streets" (Morrissey) (the latest fad)
Extremely fascinating brain. I don't think I've ever come across a pro-"Woke", anti-vaccine, anti-Covid prevention person before!
Anyone who uses the word avant-garde should be pushed into a locker
