#hyperreality
The average Republican seeks out and lives in a media environment so dense and radioactive with hyperreality that high-information Democrats can’t even begin to fathom its shape or dimensions, real Lovecraftian type shit
I can’t speak for other disinformation researchers but from my personal perspective this is some of the most unironically funniest shit I have ever seen the right-wing trash media ecosystem produce

I mean, this is a hell of a glitch in the fabric of Trumpian hyperreality…
lmfao haha yes

Even Baudrillard's jaw would drop at the hyperreality they trapped themselves in, like, holy fucking shit

Ur on the level of goopy hyperreality at the current moment. I am reminded of Steven Universe and the way Rebecca Sugar said crying is "really funny"

i meant more like "actually those guys trying to kill trump were just psyops" or "LLMs are going to kill us all like in terminator" or like basically the whole of fascism and in particular it's modern penchant for hyperreality but that too i suppose

you can also ask @michaelburns.bsky.social about postmodernism and postpostmodernism and hyperreality and adorno and all them fancy motherfuckers if you want

i'm more of a metamodernist which is probably really fucking annoying unless we're physically on a couch and getting baked together

I honestly wish that I had time to write up something about the distinction between living in a fantasy world, living in a delusion (see below), and living in hyperreality.

Yeah the part where Musk envisions himself as the evil emperor whose wife and kids didn't leave him is the most understandable thing in the world. Saying "this is what they took from us" is the part where I'm like "hyperreality is at it again"

you construct a hyperreality inside of which you are the most important person and you feel hurt when the corresponding worldview is challenged.

Imagine being a reactionary Baudrillard glazer. "The modern world is built on simulations departed from reality that attempt to mirror a "hyper"reality that is not present. This is a great thing and I have some proposals for where we can take this 'hyperreality' project"

Greetings from the hyperreal, Flusser’s vortex of writing and images! Welcome to your new adventure, where hypertext adventurers navigate through the data cloud, encountering the illusions of hyperreality while resisting the pull of algorithmic control!

I don’t usually watch the dubbed versions of films but I’m glad I did with this one as the actors recording their own English dialogue in a series of macho barks adds to the sense of hyperreality in this crazily entertaining film

my working theory is that people like liz holmes, haley stevens, elon musk, and trump are different examples of hyperreality. they've constructed wordviews that center themselves, delusional-ly, and exist in a media/tech landscape that gives those delusions unusual power. it's reality distorting.

I mean it in the sense that for analog media that still needed the entire capturing and chemical process to happen to deliver an experience, it was easier for the hyperreality to be created by the viewer’s experience, as opposed to the simplicity of going overboard with digital post

The art style for the OoT remake is obviously not above criticism (I personally am turned off by the level of detail on Link's character model), but I do think people were way too quick to jump on the claim that it looked like it was made by GenAI or was Unreal Engine hyperreality slop.
Ask the developer interviews are out for the Ocarina of Time Remake and the art director for the game does confirm that the artstyle of the game comes from what everyone assumed it was

hyperreality has ways of sneaking up on all of us

Hmmm, I see that a bit, but I’d say for one it was so perfectly crafted in how it made what’s real more & more difficult to discern as it went that it transcends other efforts I’ve seen at exploring the unreality/hyperreality of our time, like I really think it was a marvel of directing & editing

#JohnMaynardKeynes compared investing to a newspaper beauty contest: the winner picks the faces everyone else picks. Investors predict others’ judgments, then others’ predictions of those judgments, and so on,

I just stumbled upon this on a Polymarket bet; some sort of financialized hyperreality?

The Simulation is Collapsing and Some are Starting to Notice

This video breaks down the concept that everyday life is increasingly resembling a corrupted sci-fi simulation due to the rise of hyperreality and modern technology.

"Phoenix why are you reading post-structural philosophers" because I fell down a hole and got my brain gripped by Zero Parades and now I want to write an essay or at least a few posts about what I think it's saying about some things, specifically what I think it has to say about hyperreality

I like to think I have a level head wrt political analysis despite all the insane shit I say but it simply. confuses me. cause everything else has been weaponized hyperreality. maybe liberals get off on abdicating responsibility and the state benefits in some way being seen as a rogue state....
