ZMan’s weekly podcast. Highly recommended.
One of the weird parts of the mass media age is the constant bombardment from the firehose of mass media warps our sense of time. The Pretender Biden was installed just a couple of weeks ago, but it feels like a long time ago. It always feels like so much is happening in the moment, that what happened in the prior moment has tp be stashed in long term memory. Just as you are processing one bizarre thing from the ruling class, they are firing the next bizarre action at us.
It is a relentless succession of events, one more stranger than the next. The most powerful tool of managerial authoritarianism is constant disruption. The thing is, it is not a deliberate strategy. They are not sitting around thinking about what loony thing they can do next to create disruption. They have a need for the constant crisis. They need to feel as if life is on the knife edge at all times. it one result of the feminization of the managerial class. It is endless drama.
Progressive believe that Progress Is Inevitable. But Progress requires Change, so they must always be Changing Stuff, in order that Progres will arrive; they can never just Leave It Alone, because doing that would mean Less Progress, and who wants that? And, since Progress Is Inevitable, any Change will do, because Progress will inevitably result, no matter what it looks like to Your Lying Eyes. All Change is Good. They can never rest.
