Desmet was the individual to popularize the concept of "mass formation" during Covid, which has an ancestral lineage going back to existentialist philosophers, as Paul Tillich's composition of anxiety ('The Courage to Be'), and further back, Kierkegaard's conception of anxiety and despair ('The Sickness Unto Death')

"All political power, so called, rests practically upon this matter of money.
"Any number of scoundrels, having money enough to start with, can establish themselves as a 'government'; because, with money, they can hire soldiers, and with soldiers extort more money; and also compel general obedience to their will.
"...So these villains, who call themselves governments, well understand that their power rests primarily upon money. With money they can hire soldiers, and with soldiers extort money.
"And, when their authority is denied, the first use they always make of money, is to hire soldiers to kill or subdue all who refuse them more money."

If you pay attention closely, you'll notice a trope that has been employed endlessly – that is, the phrase "wipe them off map" being used in the various contexts of geopolitical narratives (Israel, Ukraine, insert your conflict here).
I have noticed this, because it stems from a mistranslated line from way back in the Bush era.
Iran's president at the time (Ahmadinejad) had said "the occupation regime over Jerusalem should vanish from the page of time."
[As an aside, I entirely agree, as all government regimes should be abolished.]
The phraseology used was translated and widely reported as "wipe Israel off the map", which has now cemented itself in the public consciousness.
It's an intriguing analysis of the way the State is conflated with the "country" (i.e., the ruling class and it's subjects), how statist narratives solidify themselves in the human mind, and the insidiousness with which they spin things to advance their interests.

People are becoming more aware that the intelligentsia are having a difficult time when confronted with philosophical arguments based on fundamentals like first principles, deductive morality, normative ethics, and basic logic.
They've never had to actually grapple with those things since the substratum of their ideology is violent coercion, and all of the complex structures built on top of it are merely sophisticated euphemisms and elaborate justifications.

Obviously she gets specific in the OP to present one example, but my thinking trends more broadly in an "Anatomy of the State" kind of way, i.e., how the State functions generally.
In that piece, Rothbard talks about how important the 'intelligentsia' are to crafting and shaping narratives on behalf of the security of the empire.
From the OP:
"Normal people tend to assume they're looking at a more or less accurate picture of what's happening and how the world works from the information that's laid out in front of them, not understanding that the information they consume is being constantly distorted, funneled and manipulated by the powerful to the benefit of our rulers."

2025-03-27 15:02:53 UTC

"The powerful understand that narrative control is everything. Power is the ability to control what happens, but ultimate power is the ability to control what people THINK about what happens. Human consciousness is dominated by mental narratives, so if you can control what narratives the humans believe about their reality, you can control the humans.
"...The empire invests extensively in narrative control, as do manipulative people in general. If you've ever had the misfortune of knowing a malignant narcissist or sociopath, you'll know they tend to pour immense amounts of energy into manipulating the social narrative about themselves and the people in their circle. Manipulators understand the power of narrative control, while ordinary people do not."

*Dec 2022

2025-03-21 16:22:53 UTC

I created my Twitter account in 2008 (17 years ago), and it quickly became my only real "social media" presence.
One highlight of mine on Twitter was tweeting about bitcoin in 2009, the first tweet on the platform with the word "cryptocurrency" (yes, Satoshi used it on the SourceForge page where the repo was originally hosted).
After a couple of years, I decided to switch the account to pseudonymous since years before I had emigrated resolutely into anarcho-land, and was becoming more vocal with my radical (I use this term positively) views. Mainly, I didn't want to cause strain in meatspace relationships, nor unnecessarily draw the ire of state agents. Also, nyms are just cool.
At some point in the past 6-8 years or so (pre-Covid) I started noticing less engagement across the board. People would tell me they couldn't see all of my posts or replies, and had to navigate directly to my profile to see anything. I was shadowbanned.
My hunch with no proof is it was voicing my anti-voting opinions; I do this every election cycle, but 2016 was a particularly difficult one for the statists. Of course it could be even with my account longevity, having a nym handle and no phone # associated with my account tripped the algo eventually. Whatever the reason, I wasn't even that upset, since I couldn't care less about dopamine hits from follower counts or likes. What I do care about is disseminating ideas that strive toward truth.
I spun up a npub in December 2023, essentially migrating my nym from Twitter which I wasn't using much by that point, anyway. After maybe less than I year, I decided to throw caution to the wind and created a meatspace account, a small window into the complex and strange ecosystem that is my psyche.
A part of the Nostr dream for me, among many other things, is that heterodox thinkers – who live (and thrive) in the margins of polite, intellectual society – can't be silenced effectively, even when what they are saying might be uncomfortable to the status quo. I control my data, identity, and voice, not a corporation or state.
The Ditigal Age is upon us. And while there are still dark storms in the distance, the horizon is slowly getting brighter. A new dawn is coming, and I'm here for it. #Nostr

The long, blood-soaked trail of the US Empire has left a profoundly tragic spiritual death in the soul of every single American.
Fear, anger, the lust for vengeance, the celebration of violence and death...all of which lead to a Kierkegaardian despair.
One of the first steps toward renewal is by decoupling one's own identity from that of the nation-state, in thought and in action.
