Why we have to make the Jewish Ghetto comparison
Why we have to make the Jewish Ghetto comparison
The horror of the past has returned in a new guise, and the comparison of the Jewish ghetto under Nazism with the Gaza ghetto under Israel’s current fascistic authority must cease to be sacrilegious.

From Capitalism to Technofeudalism
From Capitalism to Technofeudalism

This post largely aligns with my views on the near future (and likely explains my fascination with cyberpunk culture to boot) - and name drops Naomi Klein's latest book Doppelganger.

I'm almost finished her book and you'll be hearing more about soon as it brilliantly connects the dots to the parallel (distraction) world of conspiracy culture while in reality capitalism continues its unchecked conversion of the living to the dead.

Silicon Landlords: On the Narrowing of AI’s Horizon
Culture / The one thing science fiction couldn’t imagine is the world we have now: the near-complete control of Artificial Intelligence by a few corporations whose only goal is profit. Dwayne Monroe As HAL 9000, the true star of Stanley Kubrick´s landmark film, 2001: A Space Odyssey, died a silicon death by memory module removal, the machine, reduced to its infant state (the moment it became operational) recited: “Good afternoon, gentlemen.

Israel Is Losing this War
Israel Is Losing this War
"Such warnings have been ignored by the Biden administration and Western leaders, whose unconditional embrace of Israel’s war is rooted in the delusion that Israel was just another Western nation peacefully going about its business before it suffered an unprovoked attack on October 7—it’s a comforting fantasy to those who prefer to avoid recognizing a reality they’ve been complicit in creating."

American Antifa: The Tactics, Culture, and Practice of Militant Antifascism - Stanislav Vysotsky - Google Books
Since the election of President Trump and the rise in racist and white supremacist activity, the militant antifascist movement known as antifa has become increasingly active and high profile in the United States. This book analyzes the tactics, culture, and practices of the movement through a combination of social movement studies and critical criminological perspectives.Based on extensive fieldwork and interviews with activists, this book is the first scholarly sociological analysis of contemporary antifascist activism in the United States. Drawing on social movement studies, subculture studies and critical criminology, it explains antifa's membership, their ideology, strategy, tactics and use of culture as a weapon against the far right. It provides the most detailed account of this movement and also cuts through much of the mythology and common misunderstandings about it.This book will be of interest to scholars and students in sociology, political science, anthropology, criminology, and history; however, a general audience would also be interested in the explanation of what drives antifa tactics and strategy in light of the high-profile conflicts between fascists and antifascists.

The DOWNFALL of Jordan Peterson - And How His Subreddit TURNED ON HIM For Joining the Daily Wire
The DOWNFALL of Jordan Peterson - And How His Subreddit TURNED ON HIM For Joining the Daily Wire
Jordan Peterson has been one of the most prominent so-called intellectuals in Western politics. Bursting onto the scene railing against wokeness, he quickly became extremely wealthy through self-help book sales, podcasts and his own popular YouTube channel. Cutting a centrist image, his mainly male fan bases had a range of political beliefs. Peterson was seen as a calm rational debater who could successfully take on the left and the right with facts and logic. However, since 2017 he has been slowly pandering to an increasingly hard right audience before eventually joining Ben Shapiro’s Daily Wire this month. Due to the somewhat diverse nature of his fanbase many have turned against him quickly saying he has become the caricature the left always painted him as. In this video we go through his rise on social media and how he has gained a right-wing fan base while alienating his original fans. .00:00:00 - Intro 00:05:37 - I never liked Jordan Peterson 00:08:40 - Jordan Peterson Calm and Rational Persona 00:13:10 - Jordan Peterson was always Toxic 00:18:06 - Jordan Peterson’s Twitter Ban 00:20:05 - Jordan Peterson’s Subreddit TURN ON HIM 00:31:00 - His Fans call him out 00:35:00 - Closing Thoughts My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/TheKavernacle Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com//TheKavernacle My Instagram: https://instagram.com/thekavernacle/ Second Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtet3kEWqgKj6sSfMgf2n7A My Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2g88k90PsIKnDxU39lU0qi?nd=1&nd=1 My Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheKavernacle/ My Personal Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/tommycahil1995 My Medium: https://medium.com/@thekavernacle
