#24. Ekofascism pt2. "Green Pioneers, a first counter-culture and the proto-nazistic occult hijack" 6 APR · THE RETURN OF THE REPRESSED. 02:12:00

Hello and welcome to another episode of The Return of the Repressed.I have today, I believe, an extra good episode in store for you today. Foucault told us to go looking for the roots of the biopolitical new biology in 18th century Germany liberalism. We will heed his advice and do so!

With the help of Lukacs and his writing about Dostoevsky, Hegel, Schelling and Hölderlin we will make a distinction between reactionary and revolutionary romanticist anti-capitalism. As we move closer to the turn of the last century we will see how the Lebensreform picks up the hatchet of the three musketeers of German idealism.

Reading Freud we will try to understand how their civilizational discontent expressed itself through occultism, paganism, vegetarianism and how these the fist ecological hippies had their movement and ideas hijacked by the Völkisch aspirations of proto-nazistic genetic evolutionary biologist and other recruited intellectuals.

I’ll do some art-deconstruction and psychoanalysis of the first psychedelic painter of the first counter culture to see how he, Hugo Höppner aka Fidus and people like Martin Heidegger despite their distrust for technology came to worship the Sun as a mechanical swastika-wheel of karmic Germanic destiny.

Step by step we will come closer to a in part Robber-Baron-financed agricultural project of Richard Walter Darré and his successor Herbert Backe. Darré who inspired by the Lebensreform of which he was a part, where and when he first met Himmler in their 20s, turned some of the ideas of anthroposophy and Rudolf Steiner in to what was officially known as the Hungerplan of the Generalplan Ost.

In so doing we will uncover the new attempts at breeding of humans, animals and plants and the New Biology's fascination with genetically modified organisms as they systematically starved some 7 million soviets and others in the occupied lebensraum. Which will be our preparation for the next episode on this largely, relatively unknown holocaust of which we have proud self-aware documented evidence. In other words, finally when investigating a truly man-made famine we will have no need for cold-warrior projection and speculation.

So buckle up and join me as we dispel the Rune Magic of Death to reveal the true nasty face of Ahriman and Operation Barbarossa... it just hit me, clue was always in the title!

#23. Ekofascism pt1. "An extended introduction to The New Biology" 23 MAR · THE RETURN OF THE REPRESSED. 02:24:47

Today we will begin a new journey through the past. A journey that will cover and overlap the whole history that has been our subject matter in the Bio Peace and Warfare series. A parallel narration which will take the form of a slightly more theoretical investigation with the new title Ecofascism.

My assumption is that only highlighting examples and names we will not shock anybody familiar with the very familiar topic of fascism. We need to understand more thoroughly how it as an ideology understands nature and its ecology. We also need to understand how this was not only a German but is a common joint project by the entire developing world, a global fact that has been thoroughly obscured by the singling out of a particular man of a particular party in a particular country at a particular time.

In this extended introduction to what was once called not Ecofascism but “The New Biology” we will learn the names of some of the involved economical foundations, corporations and important actors, as well as the material and theoretical reasons for their ideology. A new hegemonic historical block of primarily England, America and Germany which together as a single unit if not bought, at least began to lease the scientific community of human development itself.

I will read from the magic mountain of Thomas Mann to set the mode of the early 20th century. Those vibes will then be given structural depth as we make use of theorists such as Foucault and his biopower, Gramsci and his recruitment of intellectuals as well as contemporary dialectical geneticists, evolutionary biologists, mathematicians and physicists etc to introduce a neglected often unheard critique of the hegemony of the aforementioned historical block.

If I did my work correctly and thoroughly enough, you will already by the end of this introduction start to question things like genetic reductionism, the protein paradigm, IQ heritability, the DNA doctrine and perhaps the E-word itself…that is evolution.

These dents in the body armour of the sane modern subject will not be put their by a religious lance so that you can join me as reborn subjects in my new Pentecostal end-time cult. They are intended to bring about a grasp of the causes of the overdetermined trajectory of what has poetically been called the Second Silent Spring and more scientifically The Sixth Extinction Event .

The time has come to lay to rest statements such as “I cant believe that they are doing this” or “I can't understand why they are doing this”. We will "believe" but most importantly we will come to understand why.

In so doing as a bonus we will also look at the famous intellectuals who uphold this elite narrative of social control today on social media under the psyop-auspices of being ambassadors for a “forbidden knowledge” such as Sam Harris, Charles Murray and Jordan Peterson etc.

In short we will hopefully come to understand how we were all forced to take for granted that all the mechanisms of life and the control of that life, were to be found at a submicroscopic level. A place not of bacteria but the molecular gene, where of course at a depth of PPM to PPB of a centimeter, very few can afford the eye necessary to look for the truth. An historical documentable move by the ruling classes to successfully bar the gates to the very top of the very cool rooms of the pyramid of empirical observation. Imposed on all but a selected few who also just happens to be not scientists but the world's richest patrons.

SHOW NOTES

We check in on some enemies of the show to see what’s new with them. Uber has finally posted an operating profit for the first time in history – and it only took more than $31 billion in losses, plus a lot more exploitation and immiseration, to get there. Dan Ariely, a famous behavioral economist, has ironically been caught using fraudulent data for a study about honesty that has been used as the basis for insurance initiatives to combat fraud. Finally, Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir, has written an abhorrent essay arguing that we all have moral obligations to embrace the development of AI weapons—or else we will be “punished” for refusing the call of duty.

Feedback we've gotten is that this is one of the better eps! Would like to share, Episode Outline:

  • History of Blockbuster.There’s a misconception that Netflix “killed” Blockbuster, but in 1997 (before Netflix ever mails a DVD) the Blockbuster market valuation had already been cut in half.

  • A review of the documentary ‘The Last Blockbuster’, how it’s a character study on Heidi, who is “the one” of capitalism

  • No one gets to own anything anymore

  • How tech reduces friction in our lives, and why things being easier may not mean it’s necessarily “better”

  • The Big Techification of movie making, how our movies are made by tech companies now and what that means

--How The Algorithm runs most of decisions we make in day to day life and how Blockbuster existed outside of that algorithm

SHOW NOTES Sup non patreon subscribing losers..here is the first half of our 2 hour episode in which we talk about Lizzo and take a personality test which plunges us into the depths of history, malice, and the corrupting force of power.

When will Lizzo be brought to justice for her multitude of crimes?

worker-hating

Monday night in mid-September when Lizzo, whose real name is Melissa Jefferson, used Postmates to place an order from Luke's Lobster in Boston, Massachusetts. Her meal was supposed to be delivered to the Revere Hotel, but Lizzo had used the pseudonym "Bonnie V" on her order, and she hadn't included a room number.

The driver, Tiffany Wells, said she tried to contact "Bonnie V" on the phone number she'd provided, and she also spoke to the Revere staffers at the front desk, but they told her that no "Bonnie V" was listed as a guest. After waiting another five minutes, she rolled out, taking the Luke's delivery with her.

"Hey @Postmates this girl Tiffany W. stole my food she lucky I don’t fight no more," she wrote in a now-deleted tweet, one that included a screenshot of Wells' picture from the Postmates app. Lizzo also tweeted that Wells walked into the hotel, "clocked it as delivered, then walked out with food in hand […] She clearly knew what she was doing and I just don’t want someone else to get they shit stole too."

According to Wells' lawsuit, which was first obtained by Pitchfork, some of Lizzo's fans and followers started making threats against her. ("[m]e pulling up to Tiffany’s house and stomping on her ass bc she deprived my baby lizzo of her food,” one example cited in the filing said.)

https://www.vice.com/en/article/wjw37z/lizzo-is-being-sued-by-the-postmates-driver-she-accused-of-stealing-her-food

plagiarist

After years of back-and-forth over claims that she plagiarized the song’s now-iconic lyric, “I just took a DNA test, turns out, I’m 100 percent that bitch,” the pop performer took to Instagram on Wednesday to clarify her inspiration for the song. “As I’ve shared before, in 2017, while working on a demo, I saw a meme that resonated with me, a meme that made me feel like 100% that bitch,” she wrote. “I sang that line in the demo, and I later used that line in Truth Hurts.” When the Twitter user who allegedly originated the line in a tweet, @MinaLioness, previously called out Lizzo in February 2018, Lizzo told them, “I’ve never seen ur viral tweet but I’m glad it exists.” @MinaLioness replied, “I am the creator of that meme, and writer credit lands here.” And as of today, the credit has indeed landed: “I just took a DNA Test, turns out I’m a credited writer for the number one song on Billboard,” they tweeted.

anarcho-Bidenist

“We live in a culture that demands accountability, especially from our public figures. You and I are not excluded from that, we’ve both known our fair share of backlash. I have seen backlash sometimes about your policies being anti-Black,” Lizzo said in her very first question. “How do you feel about that, and how does that inform your campaign for VP so that Black people feel heard?”

In response, Harris touched on her work in California, and explained that her career was driven from a desire to “to go inside the system to see if I could fix it from the inside.”

“We really ought to know the power that we have in every place, and never decide that any one place is excluded from us being there to get the kind of change that we want,” she said. “So I made the decision to go up the rough side of the mountain, to go inside the system, but I also understand the brilliance of being outside of the system when you have the brilliance of Black Lives Matter and that movement and what it has done to force change.”

top-cop

“The moral of the story is vote, vote, vote, vote, vote,” Lizzo said after their call was over. “Do not be discouraged. Do not feel swayed either way but just use your voice, period.”

just vote

It's a leftist podcast hosted only by women and I don't think they have any male guests. What do my fellow hexbearianites think about it?
