I'm paraphrasing Zizek, but he said "the left needs a leader that controls executive power" and he's right. There's a difference between a benevolent dictator and a tyrant. Trump is a tyrant, in which he yields his power to prosecute and persecute. A benevolent dictator uses their power as a force for good, think FDR and whatnot.

"Fascism" should not be used lightly. It's a very old political theory. Many of the complaints are that they're lazy or non-working, they should be able to work, pay taxes and succeed in life. Instead of succumbing to the forever hellhole that's hotels and unemployment.

Source on the below 20% statistic? From the headlines I've been seeing is that there's a Reform UK majority.

Donors go where the public goes, and that's Reform UK from what it looks like. The media is fuelling a fire on immigration right now. Keir Starmer is a grilled crisp at this point — and the boiling cob is going to explode.

Everyone voted on his promises, none of them actually fulfilled. That's it, we're done for.

My problem with this is when I now don't have freedom from surveillance in my country because I mainly use F-Droid to install my privacy conscious apps.

As Plato says... And people act like there's no solution when this happens.

Associations are very similar to psychoanalysis concepts. There's a wide range of ways of thinking. I can sometimes think the way you do. Thought and structure is like a routine, carving mental structure. The ways we are taught and lived can really impact the way we think.

When AI isn't factual it's called "hallucination" lmao

It's what Deleuze would call a "desire lack". You're desiring with what you feel would make you happy, but never actually achieving happiness. Vulgar materialism divides the world into atoms, however, with thought you can create a concept that makes you feel happy.
