Interesting analysis of Republican clout. I would be very interested to hear more about this machine and how it works. #CriticalMedia #cdnmedia

Classic.
1) New person/issue/proposal from the left starts catching on.
2) The right points the shit machine at it.
3) The person/issue/proposal loses public support.
4) Dems sputter, blame one another, talk endlessly & fruitlessly about "reframing."
Support for renewables shrinks as fossil fuel interest grows
Observers blame "culture wars,” while a Republican consultant says messaging for clean energy must emphasize economic, not environmental, benefits.

There's definitely a post colonial take that would require more dialog slog; many of the ethical dilemmas involve the lesser of two shit choices but the NPCs sometimes display characteristics of prototypical post colonial archetypes (i.e. comprador).

Some stories exist
to inform you.

Others exist
to own you.

Know the difference.

This morning:
Reading Yuval Sharon’s A New Philosophy of Opera—on slowness, rupture, and speculative listening.

It reminded me of Democracia’s ORDER.
Opera as political form.
Opera as rebirth.

Dinner at the Dorchester
#Opera #Performance #Democracia #CriticalMedia
A long, lavish banquet table stretches toward the back of an opulently decorated dining room. Seated along both sides are well-dressed guests, engaged in quiet conversation under chandeliers and wall sconces. The table is set with fine china, wine glasses, and floral centerpieces. At the center foreground, the logo of the Madrid-based collective Democracia is overlaid—a neoclassical dome encircled by the word “DEMOCRACIA.” Beneath it, white text reads: “DON’T FEEL SO SAFE, / DO NOT THINK YOU ARE UNTOUCHABLE.” The image is vertically framed and bordered by a black background, evoking tension between wealth, spectacle, and unease.

Wisdom is selective.

It knows

Algorithms don’t know
what matters to you.

They know
what keeps you scrolling.

There’s a difference.

Relevance isn’t viral.
Clarity isn’t loud.

Human judgment
will always beat
automated chaos.

VIGILANT WATCHDOG In a democratic society, the important role of journalistic news media is to be a reliable provider of information. Another important task of the media is to monitor the actions and statements of politicians and other people in power be it racist speech or the use of government funds for personal expenses. Critical media can be called a vigilant watchdog - when it is allowed to watch, bark and share information freely, societal matters cannot go unnoticed. Media that freely monitors and reports on public power is also known as the fourth power. #VigilantWatchdog #DemocraticSociety #JournalismMatters #ReliableInformation #MediaMonitoring #FourthPower #PressFreedom #Accountability #Transparency #CriticalMedia #PublicInterest #PowerCheck #FreePress #SocietalWatchdog #MediaIntegrity
