theres a good bit 10 mins in about DARPA research and MRI scans about your brain activity when beliefs are being challenged and showing the indication that narratives are easier to sway people rather than attacking their beliefs directly

makes sense since narratives are in third person and aren't personal

the alt-right basically tapped into this primal poo poo that've been around for millenia, through oral tradition or otherwise and just commodified it with image macros and are being masturbatory geniuses thinkfluencers about how its new and edgy and controversial when it's not

their game can be beaten lol

the baked alaska interview segment here sounds positively deranged because he's so disconnected from reality, talking about a civil war for the collective consciousness

uhh dude, people's minds are all individualistic and fragmented into their own little space, you may find some common ground there briefly, for an instant, for a singular event, then it fades away and they move onto something else, scattered in the cyberwind. Then you go offline the real world is going to objectively kick yer rear end regardless

I have a bizarre respect for how little effort Putin put into this, and how much return he got out of it. It's not hard to make up crazy right wing bullshit, just about anyone could do it.

Its really amazing how consistently baked Alaska gets dunked on. Like drat.

Does he still have a squad of fat ginger neckbeard bodyguards or have they been driven off by the stench of (even bigger) loser by now?
