A conspiracy theory stating that liberal & left-wing media outlets such as CNN cherrypick news stories in order to promote ideas of demonisation against “privileged” groups, such as mass shootings carried out by white perpetrators, and likewise embargo stories that contradict this point of view, such as rampant black-on-black violence.

Hym "WRONG! Wrong idiot. You can't JUST control the narrative. You would need to control the narrative AND all propositional counter-narratives. And then you would need a unifying principle. Like some kind of mutual sadomasochistic ethic to tie the whole thing together. Like a binary religious system where one part believes that being the one who makes the rules isn't arbitrary and that they alone deserve it as a sort of birthright and the other would have to believe that suffering is sacrosanct and that endless toil performed unthinkingly is virtuous and that trying to get away with not working hard is sinful. That's how you control the world. Then you can just say words that don't mean anything all day while doing whatever you want in private because you're a god and the law of non-contradiction is something you can exempt yourself from. No one will be able to question you (without paying you) because the system will be predicated on ETHOS. Which means you can always reserve the right to arbitrarily discredit anyone you want and then no one will have have to listen to their LOGOS.... Parish the thought... Good thing that will never happen...."

Sometimes I think that the whole reason I met him was to discover that his wife was studying Counseling Psychology, if indeed that is the name of something a person might actually learn, with the great-grand-niece of Frida Kahlo. In the narrative of desire, perhaps what matters is not intimacy but it's counterpart: a new thought. In this sense, the lover is a necessary force, but rarely it's limit. I said: "Maybe this is the reason we met." Thinking of the yellow table, the third eye, the monkey in her arms. Dominant. I begged for an introduction, forgetting for a moment who I was. To him. For her. A cunt. Do cunts get to meet Frida Kahlo? In the flesh? Greeley, Colorado is where the slaughterhouses are. I'd like to visit that university town.
