LeonardoCornejo: We are fucked, we are so fucked unless we start making our moves. I think it is time to go on the offensive in stead of defending.
Emob78: The problem is those in power and lulling us all to sleep. You know all this zombie culture shit? You wanna know the real reason behind it? It's a metaphor for the end of the decline of western civilization. That's what it is. The reason Joe Q Public is interested in zombies is because deep down they know we're all turning into lifeless consumer zombies. The symbolic truth of it should give us all a chill down our spine. When you think of the implications... it's not good, and there's going to be a hell of a hangover to wake up from.
Point being, by the time revolution becomes necessary, it has become nullified by a cultural static that puts everyone to sleep. The strongest reaction we can summon is a flame war in a chat room or some petty Twitter comments. And we'll probably outsource or automate those too. Because as humans, we're collectively being trained to be voyeuristic and passive even with our own lives. T
he agencies of the State and their pals in commerce require domesticity. They demand obedient cattle. And if they can keep us divided over social justice and who gets the cream from the milk bottle... all the better. Ordo Ab Chao. Estan Vivos. Nosotros dormimos.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V-4JHT2q3w Those lines of dialogue in that fictional movie have more merit than anything said by Anita Sarkeesian.
Someone could say you are speaking bullshit, but is interesting that people like NOAM CHOMSKY have your same opinion. He said that stupid political problems are created, and divided in two contrary groups to manipulate and entertain people far away from the real problems.
Just think about it carefully, there is a BIG ISSUE with the ass of a pin up, with the Shirt of a Scientist, with RAPING CULTURE IN UNIVERSITIES (Check the point 1 in the next link) BUT there is no-one of these people even DARE to attack very important cultural patriarchal sides of our culture like Christianity or Muslims, you got it? Why Macintosh or Sarkesian don' t even dare to blame them? Why Macintosh was even defending that Charlie Hebdo was deeply offensive?
Because that questions really MATTERS, but patriarchal society in the virtual world (Games) and the fucking stupid Twitter it suppose to be important, harassment in the Internet in the UN, is hilarious... or fucking SAD, depending in which side of the world you are living... is the kind of BS that Chomsky would say is used to maintain people talking about crap... but in my opinion this is not created, but USED, it is not a conspiracy, that is stupid, but is USED, soon we will have a woman as NA President, and they will sell it to us like it was the first woman ever on politics, when that is not truth, not even the first president... and it will not be because rights, or feminism, it will be because VOTES
