“The newspapers have to have bad news, otherwise there would be only ads, or good news. Without bad news we could not discern the ground rules of the environment. This does not necessarily mean the environment is bad, but it means its operation upon us is total and ruthless. The environment is always the brainwasher, so that the well-adjusted person, by definition, has been brainwashed. He is adjusted.” - Marshall McLuhan, Vision 65 (October 1965)

“quickly reach a stage in which we had no unconscious. This would be like dreaming awake. Such may well be the prophetic meaning of Finnegans Wake by James Joyce: his idea, among many others, that tribal man lived a dream and modern man is “back again Finnegan” into the cycle of the tribal involvement, but this time awake. This possibility that we are actively engaged in liquidating the unconscious for the first time in history, behooves us to pay some attention to how it is structured, and to what function it serves in human affairs. It may prove to be indispensable to sanity.” - Marshall McLuhan, Address at Vision 65 (October 1965)
A nontrivial number of people deluded themselves to not vote against an outright Fascist because the alternative wasn’t good enough for them.

a nontrivial number have lost their hearts and minds to Elon Musk X computer meme cloud computing systems and have no ability to tell they have done so. It’s unbelievable what audiences of Rupert Murdoch’s HDTV Fox News and Elon Musk X media platform believe / the alt-reality they live in. “What I had not realized is that extremely short exposures to a relatively simple computer program could induce powerful delusional thinking in quite normal people.” ― Joseph Weizenbaum, MIT researcher / expert, 1974
It was genocide Joe because the public policy mega cruiser wasn’t turning on a dime and dropping them off at the front door of their ideal destination. So they put us all on an express train to Hell instead to teach them a lesson.
