Sort of a tangent but something that has occurred to me lately is that the whole Foucauldian / Alinsky monomaniacal obsession with power as the single human social motive IS actually correct in a pragmatic sense, i.e. whosoever behaves /as if it were true/ regardless of whether it actually is, will be willing to lie, cheat, slander, libel and do other Machiavellian things to attain power. Whether it's Foucault, Marcuse or the Alinsky playbook, the roads really all lead to the same place. You do whatever you have to do to get people who think like you into elite positions, gatekeeper positions where they can control hiring and firing, influencer positions where they can shape narratives etc. Do not stop, do not pass go, do not try to win people over in the "marketplace of ideas". Hammer out the finer doctrinal points later, after you've achieved power.

Language is how Hegelian negativity is generated because language is the house of being, it's where conceptual content becomes objective, becomes a common possession of everybody, and continues to develop. Think of what it does to a language when you fill its respective society with n*ggers and other borderline retarded economic migrants from all over the world, when people stop regularly reading books that challenge them, when the intelligentsia becomes deliberately "pop" and avoids classics, when visual media replace discourse in general, when discourse becomes a preserve of the elite media and people feel cut off from civic participation and the need to compete for the intellectual distinction necessary to lead their countrymen, in short when all of society regresses to solely economic values and people meet each other only as abstract economic units, and all that is necessary for "communication" is a washed-out pidgin version of the original language that must be accessible to all foreigners and to the laziest possible consumers, so that no one is left out of the sales demographics. Then imagine what happens when rich people who sell things actively want to shape society to be fit the pidgin, on top of already shaping the pidgin to fit society. Then go read the Powell memorandum and Bernays.

When you read a Youtube comment by some Indian guy going "gooba gooba me am like dis vid" and your brain can parse it without being confused or offended, when you can read low-effort text messages from borderline fucking retards who no longer even use punctuation and whose actual internal monologue now consists in monosyllabic simple phrases like "Can you pick me up" and "Ok," you are unconsciously having your expectations lowered as to what constitutes discourse and to the minimum threshold of conceptual content and conceptual clarity necessary to qualify for full humanity. Third-world n*ggers don't have the words "ominous" or "portentous" or "eerie" to describe things, they just have "scary" and "bad," and a generation from now, your children will only have those as well, because n*ggers are the ever-increasing majority and the spaces where you can even hear words like "portentous" are becoming more and more restricted and rare. Emojis are just one more front in the capitalist n*gger war on thought.
