platforming strawmen

Pretty much how the internet started to work once it was accepted that you can kick out people that don't agree with you from your online community. As a result of a culture of 'de-platforming' and censorship, what actually started to happen was that people started to platform "strawman" - intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat rather than engaging with an opponent's real argument - instead.

procude

In working terms, this word means to produce without a capitalists connotation that one has been alienated from, or the whether there is exists an exploitation of surplus labor.

from "cyberphunkism," the term also mentions the ideal of creating "alien-cybernetic-genetic" humanoids.
I once went to a Harvard lecture on Genetic engineering and someone asked if there were people making genetically modified humans in caves someplace; the professor laughed, hesitated, then said without a doubt there are some people "procuding" (procude) substances.

#gorgonwars

a term invented by #cyberphunkism philosophy to symbolize the rise of people debating with one another using non-digested ideas they themselves haven't come up with, or what Foucault, Heidegger and others recognize as "empty chatter" - mindless slogans that one hasn't actually digested but they just repeat as a form of bandwagon effect. Very much like an "earworm" which is just another "snake" on top of our gorgon heads.
hey dude i totally realize i was a gorgon participating in #gorgonwars when i was just repeating empty slogans and i had to go through a year of actually sitting and thinking and digesting thoughts, it was hell to do the actual hard work needed to become a subject.

yeah man, adorno totally talks about the importance of building bildung especially in a world which enforces neoliberal subjectivity through endless psychologisms

idiomanalyses

#idiomanalyses is part of a #contentinternet mythology, uncovering ideological paradigms, examining cultural nuances, shaping communication, and exposing influences on interpretation—all key to clarity and deeper insight within our #gorgonwars #gorgonmatrix #socialmatrix shaped by the endless, vicariously traumatizing empty chatter of #hivemindidioms.
bro, that idiomanalyses saved me from repeating hivemindidioms

contentinternet

contentinternet or #contentinternet is a subversive linguistic strategy that relies on a #gorgonwars mythological lexicon to navigate censorship, ensuring free expression within controlled digital spaces by making the language itself unbannable.
everyone needs to create their own contentinternet in our hivemindidioms era where communication is impossible

UnnecessaryPlug

A performative act or statement where an individual emphasizes or reminds others of their alignment with a societal privilege or metric of superiority, irrespective of relevance to the situation. Unlike virtue signaling, which seeks to showcase moral or ethical alignment, an UnnecessaryPlug reinforces traditional privilege hierarchies or classic idioms of status worship without any explicit moral intent. It refers to a form of signaling where someone emphasizes an aspect of their identity or status that aligns with societal privilege or power structures, but in a way that is irrelevant to the context or conversation. This signal doesn't aim to highlight virtue but instead serves as a reminder of dominance or superiority within a specific metric upheld by traditional privilege-worship idioms. A kind of virtue signal but without necessarily pointing to virtue, rather a reminder of you are winning on one metric of classic privilege worship idioms within the gorgonmatrix. For example, we play the race card when it is not needed or remind people that you are tall: Inserting a comment about one's height in a conversation unrelated to physical attributes, as a reminder of dominance in a metric often valorized by societal norms. For gorgonwars, Zapp Brannigan would be the ultimate archetype of this idea of UnnecessaryPlug.
Host: "Welcome to the show! We're so excited to talk about your new movie. It’s been getting fantastic reviews."

Actor: "Thanks, yeah, it’s been an incredible journey. You know, being 6'4", you really get a different perspective on the world, and I think that perspective helped me bring depth to my character."

Host: "...Right, but your role is about a hacker trapped in a virtual world. How did your height come into play there?"

Actor: "It was an UnnecessaryPlug, Jimmy"
