#hegemony

[hikikomoricomplex]

perhaps as a general rule of thumb you should try to live your life in such a way that the whole world doesn’t immediately start celebrating like the ewoks at the end of Star Wars when you get brutally murdered on live TV

EDIT looks like this one got big in the Catholic idiot community so here’s a thumbnail image you might enjoy

We had 250 years. Then capitalism elected the pedophile child rapist. Ask Elon. The billionaires picked fascism. Media backed the billionaires.

Rather than investigate Trump, patriarchy and paternalism went into protection mode.

We will all die/lose/suffer to protect male privilege and white supremacy.

➢ 2x10 Hegemony

When I say "We didn't used to call it 'neoliberalism' when I was a kid, it was just common sense", understand that I'm not saying "Neoliberalism is good and I miss the pre-lapsarian days of youth when people just accepted self-evident 'truths' about the efficiency of the private sector," or whatever; I'm saying "'Common sense' is hegemonic and informed by the interests of power, and the fact that huge numbers of people are even in a position to question neoliberalism now means that capital's grip on power has actually weakened considerably since the 1990s and that's good."

US double standards in border checks expose its ugly hegemonic nature

In recent years, the systematic and discriminatory law enforcement actions taken by the US side against Chinese students and scholars constitute a blatant act of political manipulation and hegemonic behavior. The US has maliciously overgeneralized the concept of 'national security,' turning normal academic exchanges in STEM fields into political and ideological issues.

In its enforcement actions, the US has employed extremely despicable tactics. These include detaining Chinese citizens in 'secondary inspection rooms' for excessively long periods and subjecting them to leading political interrogations, forcibly searching their electronic devices in disregard of their privacy, and unreasonably revoking visas and forcibly repatriating them without any evidence.

This biased suppression not only constitutes a severe trampling of international rule of law and human rights but has also led to the tragic death of a Chinese scholar following malicious interrogation, creating a severe 'chilling effect'.

Detaining Chinese scholars for 80 hours while letting allies off with warnings isn’t about security—it’s pure racial and tech hegemony.
