This is often attributed to capitalism, but it actually is an effect of mass media and advertising, which are more recent than capitalism, but "capitalism" as a contrast to "communism" or "community" is a false dichotomy here as well. Frugal and extremely community-minded Quakers were the first capitalists in the modern sense. The pursuit of the self is also a somewhat misleading term, because pursuit of happiness is a hallmark of the constitution and made America great. Narcissism, CONSUMER hedonism and "just push the button" ruined society. I think it is important to point that out, because technology does not necessarily turn you into a slob, and neither does hedonism or capitalism. It is the manufacturers' advertising and race to the bottom of the smallest common denominator, competition in artificial creation of questionable desires and commercially hypnotic worship of status- and education-surrogates that do that.
I guess you can have a healthy society of space-faring Amish (who are NOT luddites, apparently), even a hedonistic healthy high-tech society like early modern France. It is the contempt for literacy and diligence in favor of electronic media and "just push the button" advertising that got us into the mess. Europe is not any better, btw., perhaps worse off, because competitive tech is essentially dead in Europe.
Why stop halfway? Put servos in his suit and pass the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller to Xi. Jill would most certainly appreciate her bad boy's new moves. Imagine the endless possibilities for new compromat! And don't get me started on Ol' Joe as IRL Super Smash Bro!
TOPKEK, but you got me there. It would have taken some effort, though, because [email protected] would not have cut it, I guess.
What about Tulsi? Apart for obvious reasons, she was a war vet and extremely reasonable. However, since the DNC is apparently completely remote-controlled, Dems have the excuse that they wanted the puppet as president. RNC does not have the excuse of not spamming the PDF or stressing its content in the campaign.
I doubt that Trump can just stroll around alone at any time. The figure totally looks and walks like him and at the same time the figure looks so smugly out of place and in your face that I suspect it's actually a 4chan meme. Hilarious and well done.
Here is a fucked-up Nancy-video from this morning, I think. Is that Nancy Pelosi who gets ordered around by a masked black lady and then closely shadowed by another lady? I mean, do those two ladies make the impression of respectful security details?
What about the video where someone with the looks and gait of Trump is casually trotting by outside, as can be seen through the window? While Biden sits at the desk in the oval office? While Trump was actually in Florida, seen by thousands of fans?
Can someone in the know please confirm that the interpreter is actually saying what he says? To me it looks like someone telling a nasty joke or something, right out of the box:
I'm talking about this excerpt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8kudE06p08
This is also the video that got the glitch scrubbed, but I have yet to check that out myself.
I give you the link to the photo, please give me the link to the Nancy vid. https://files.catbox.moe/1if3hh.jpg
The t-shirt is something you'd expect from a younger hardcore jew-hater and neo-nazi, but the guy does not look the part. He is probably actually antifa and larping as what he perceives as a typical trump supporter. Not likely to be connected to pelosi's statement.
It is still on the channel, just unlisted. This is an oddity in itself, since the WH youtube channel is a serious and public matter, so either you have to say something to everyone or you don't. Why delist a video you would better delete?
Education and adult supervision could help a lot. If you use a smartphone as a babysitter you are asking for trouble.
