Reification through equivalency bias is a helluva drug

This is a reification of Poul Anderson's "The Immortal Game."
Charmed and fascinated by Chess Wars, a DOS game released in 1996 that features live-action cutscenes of medieval melee when playing pieces engage one another in battle.

I mean one way to interpret this is that this entire administration is the reification of Donald Trump’s death drive

We are witnessing the reification of the dual state in the US that never really went away. A normative state for the predominant socioeconomic class in power, white men, and a prerogative state for minorities and women. It will be a dual legal system imposing two totally different systems.

Reification, eh? What were that about?

This enshrines patriarchy as 'natural', sex as immutable, and misogynistic oppression as inevitable.

If I can be so bold as to go there, it's a reification of womanhood as an innate and *disabling* category, with misogyny flowing from "biology", not patriarchal oppression.

anyway the most fatal of the constitution’s many fatal flaws is its reification of a strong form of federalism and the attendant idea that the “state” is a coherent political unit with some set of “rights” worth defending

In addition to being straightforwardly Protocols shit, it's also direct reification of what the far right says about immigration. But Hasan is much too stupid to understand that.

reification of enshittification

one of the oldest transfeminist critiques, itself adopted from earlier radical feminist critique and queer feminist critique alike (!), has been that the reification of sex is a deeply dangerous prospect precisely because sex is a structure of misogyny.

it's not that i think monogamy is inherently bad, but it *is* defining yourself based on restrictions. patriarchal reification aside, WHAT do you mean One Person for your entire life??? do you have only one friend??? talk about codependence and regretted missed opportunities! that felt weird to me.

today's torment nexus reification is [spins dial] STAND ON ZANZIBAR
Jesus Christ, this is more dystopic than anything Philip K Dick ever wrote but it’s what the Russo Brothers want for your AI Slop future

like the united state is a country where working-class identity formation happened *in tandem* with the reinscription and reification of racial difference. you cannot neatly separate class identities from racial ones (or gender identities for that matter).

“‘All reification is a forgetting.’ Art fights reification by making the petrified world speak, sing, perhaps dance.”

Herbert Marcuse, “The Aesthetic Dimension.”

reification is a really apt way to put it

realizing I could probably write a whole essay about how social media decentralization is a reification of neoliberal ideology rather than an attempt to solve any actual technical problems

Some major reification issues trying to apply a typology/theoretical construct developed by social scientists/historians to the thugs themselves and expecting the thugs to know/say/consciously carry out that construct in an orderly fashion.

Watch the transmisogyny leap out. The pulling rank in womanhood. The "female socialization", the invocation of a bodily suffering that trans women clearly never could experience or understand, the reification of an explicit boundary between cis and trans womanhood on sex-essentialist lines.

This was never about free speech. Zuck framed this week’s moves as a pivot toward Facebook’s roots in free speech, but that origin story is an utter lie. FB’s actual roots were in his nonconsensual use of other people’s private information for the reification of patriarchal hierarchies.
New: Meta has deleted trans and nonbinary Messenger themes, as well as the blog posts announcing them. Happens the same week that it has changed its rules to allow users to say LGBTQ+ people are "mentally ill"

AI is a perfect fit with fascism because AI, like fascism, is inherently a creature of monopoly capital, scavenged pseudo-content, all aesthetics and performance, and totally without scruple. As crypto is the reification of reactionary economics, so AI is the reification of 21st century fascism.
Jesus christ that's so many unchecked citations. These people are so fucking willfully, seemingly gleefully incompetent. Jesus fucking christ.

This is why you don't use LLM-type "AI" to write shit: This is what you look like.
