2) as such we have this bullshit basically piped into our every orifice every second of every day, any residual measure of humanity has gone or is in the process of being stripped (i mean, why on earth would i be suspicious of jodi dean claiming democracy or democratic procedure as neoliberal, when one of the very fucking advances of the bolivarian revolution is to expand and extend exactly these procedures. do you think chavez should have declared a one party state or something? what? go on, tell us!), so excuse me for getting upset or offended when you post some smug bullshit screenshot of, yes, the contemporary equivalent of der sturmer and their take on the issue. why would i give a fuck! why would any of us find this relevant? do you post him saying obama is a socialist? if not, why not? it's basically the same shit!
discipline posted:jodi dean doesn't say that democracy is neoliberal, she says that the neoliberal victory is in that they speak the left's language w/r/t democracy and how western liberal democracy has been subsumed by capitalism to become the major vehicle of oppression w/r/t the internet, the invasion of iraq etc. she doesn't criticize the democratic procedure as neoliberal, that would be sloppy and terribly ahistorical. but let's take it to the jodi dean thread ok? let's not turn the hugo chavez thread into the "jools freaks out on khamsek" thread
thats fucking bullshit though, western liberal democracy was ridden over roughshod for the iraq war etc lmao, is she a fucking idiot or what
outside, the city was frozen in place. but inside, somehow, it had gotten even colder. she was a hard dame to please, when I saw her profile behind my door before she knocked I could already tell, that this would be a hard case to crack. she stepped into my room and slowly twirled her long scarf and regarded my open handle of Jack with a worldy candor. I introduced myself without getting up, without, indeed, even moving my fedora from over my left eye. "jools, private eye. what can I do for you," I paused, and inhaled half a ciggarette, "ma'am?"
she looked at me from underneath her hat and said in a voice barely above a whisper that rankled across my ears like an icicle on a frozen chain link fence, "you can chill out"

inspired by your thread about her, I decided to read two jodi dean books and three articles in a week to see what all the fuss was about. I disagree with your assessment of "fucking idiot". guess it's time for you to get up in my face every time you see me for a few weeks
no, whenever i try to talk shit through with you you start giving me your fucking awful readings of whatever bullshit tv show you're watching. first it was deadwood, a patently white supremacist text if ever i saw one (completely denying the fact that actually native americans interacted to a huge degree with colonising whites, itself part of the tragedy of the native american genocide) and then you go on about how "boys will be boys" or whatever when i start talking about your boyfriend not reading shit
bullshit. i distinctly remember the congressional black caucus trying to fight this shit and being refused by white senators.
