RT @nick_routledge: @dwdavison Country Club semantics. Imperial civility. Soft, white-collar, civilized echoes of the maniacal Rwandan radio station RTLM. Heschel: "Ultimately there is only one factor upon which the shape of history depends: the moral conduct of the nations."

@zeteo_news @mehdirhasan @owenjonesjourno When @BBCNews can’t name genocide, that's not restraint; it’s reality's "most trusted media" mirror exposed as Empire's metronome. Refusal to name is the name: the lie of Western moral legitimacy and everything—epistemic, institutional, imperial—requiring this silence to survive.

Al-text here: Tweet: 21/ Those who control the sense-making stack control the fundamental parameters of perception, attention, and narrative comprehension. This is not traditional propaganda, it's psychic grooming—warfare on the covenant of perception itself as distinct from mere information warfare. There's no reasoning with the rank, pathological infantilism defining deranged, nationalist shitshows and the full-spectrum dominance their elites presume over the moral and ontological imagination at the planetary level. And they will have no intercessors from among their idols. Dust on the scales. As if the weaponized exceptionalism of elite, global structures of consciousness and power somehow guarantees its architects existential absolution from the planetary reality and consequence of "a vast and hideous occasion of sin." Yes, there's a Day to pay. George Steiner diagnosed the contagion as, in essence, "the venom of modern history", a fleeting Balkanization of psycho-geography delineated by the basic delusion that reality and morality, interdependence and consequence, somehow disassociate at dividing lines drawn upon a map. Quote tweet: Our prophets universally depict this momentous revelation of the monstrous, wholesale moral destitution of our primary, international 'superpowers', as the rending of a well-wrought veil of deceit, a historical bifurcation point defining a providential, planetary dividing line.
