Once Corbyn and Sanders are put in the ground, politically speaking, we will have a left "movement" run by neoliberal upper middle class Millennial urbanites peddling intersectional socialism, a movement which will be indistinguishable from HR department politics.

This is what happens when you raise a generation on a steady stream of images, marketing, and self-esteem/leadership (what the PMC offspring get). They learn a (visual) language of self-aggrandizement, brand-management, the projection of authority, and beneath it, vacuity.

“Things won’t collapse” — I don’t think people understand what is meant by collapse. People lived through the end of Rome. They weren’t vaporized. Trade goods that were once cheap become prohibitively expensive or vanished. Localism returned. Society doesn’t end, it simplifies.

"Paying people to stay home" - i.e., people with email jobs to stay home, while ye olde "essential workers" need to go to work - is in fact a class demand. It is a demand made by the newly-class-conscious Managerial Class and at the expense of the Working Class.

Collapse doesn’t mean some spectacular fall and now the neighborhood will come to you because only you can change the gas in the cars post-apocalypse. Collapse means over 400 years people gradually forget how to maintain and then build aqueducts. It’s a slow affair.

The most important things in the lexicon of the media- literate young managerial aspirant are: dress style, visual presentation, carefully-practiced gestures that project professorial authority, and a speech style that alternates between sternness and an emotional tremble.

The point here is not even that it is evil to have a visual style or brand (though I think it is). It is that this is the ONLY skill the children of the managerial class have. The aesthetic style is not accompanied by any skill or any achievement in producing something of value.

The point of the 1619/BLM/woke tech riots is the chastening and ultimate abolition of the middle class. The prior arrangement of capitalism created a layer of people without much formal education who nevertheless had stable jobs and somewhat decent lives. (1/7)

The inability of liberals to distinguish 1860 from 1960 from 2020 is a feature not a bug of their politics. By having the activist industrial complex address the present as though it were the past, capital accumulation can continue unimpeded by meaningful resistance.

America has too many people trained to be elites (Ivy-league-educated, PMCs) and not enough spaces for them all to become actual elites. The rebellion going on right now is about this group trying to wrest power from those above them. The proles/poors are just pawns.

A country requires at bare minimum the belief from its citizens that it exists. They have to think that they share something in common with each other and are part of a collective. Liberals and leftists, above all, have successfully worked for decades to undermine and erode this.

Librarians became ultra-woke earlier and harder than other humanities fields because their jobs became redundant much earlier. We need very few librarians today. Hyper-wokeness (i) justifies the need to hire and keep them, and (ii) is a way of competing against other candidates.
