    Kanye's YouTube politicization finally led him to Adam Curtis, which means his next album will be called "Bitter Lake" and be all about how technocratic systems of management have subsumed politics.

    Excellent thread about recent conservative musings around “redistribution of sex” and “enforced monogamy”

    12/What kind of "enforced monogamy" could social conservatives want? The question, to borrow a phrase from Lovecraft, is stupendous in its malign suggestiveness. It summons all sorts of dark visions of totalitarian methods being used to control women's lives and behavior.

    He’s headed into the New Jersey Transit entrance — leave him the fuck alone, he needs it.

    Now @ Penn Station a man is on the steps as hundreds of people pass smoking marijuana. With over 20 years as a cop I wondered should I arrest him, what if he’s illegal, will I get in trouble if he resist, oh Community policing? Will the NYPD back me? NOT! So I justed walked away.

    In case there was doubt that violent misogyny had any role in the Texas shooting. She confronted him. She was his first victim.

    Within a few minutes of ID'ing the Texas shooter, someone set up a fake Facebook account pegging him as an anti-fascist and a Hillary supporter.

    Lastly: To pull a Jordan Peterson here, I'm not necessarily saying "Jordan Peterson is a fascist." I am saying that Jordan Peterson's rhetoric around gender has uniquely strong echoes of men's reactionary thought going back a century. He is part of a tradition.

    Anyway, it's worth remembering that Peterson invokes the quiet threat of violence fairly often. His critique of trans activism, of feminism, of white privilege rhetoric isn't just that it's undermining masculinity, but that it's totalitarian, and that it could get us all killed.
