Cracking the Carney bafflegab code.

“We are no longer just relying on the strength of our values, but also the value of our strength.”

This is called “chiasmus”. It’s an old literary technique in scripture. Peak liberal tool for tranquilizing brains with pseudo-profundity.

Mark Carney, Machiavelli, and liberal bull---.
YouTube video by AntifascistDad Mark Carney, Machiavelli, and liberal bull---.

The upside of the Canadian PM having captured global attention is that he may wake a lot of folks up to the core job of the liberal figurehead, which is to sound intelligent, measured and balanced while being a bootlicking protector of the ruling class.

Talking about fascism with kids (and everyone else).
YouTube video by AntifascistDad Talking about fascism with kids (and everyone else).

When talking about fascism with kids (and everyone else) there's two common definitions. Only one gives you something to do about it.

How are Canada’s polite hyper-capitalists defending Mark Carney's bootlicking approval of Trump and Netanyahu’s illegal war on Iran? Let’s take a look at this statement from Dragon Den host Arlene Dickinson (net worth 80M).

Mark Carney, middle power warlord, making fascists look more reasonable.
YouTube video by AntifascistDad Mark Carney, middle power warlord, making fascists look more reasonable.

When push comes to shove, guys like Carney support the fascists. They co-sign the weapons deals and endorse the wars. And because they make it look better and more rational than Trump can, they'll perpetuate these systems long after Trumpism implodes.

Bishop Bootlicker Barron pretends to understand Marx
YouTube video by AntifascistDad Bishop Bootlicker Barron pretends to understand Marx

Bishop Bootlicker Barron delivers classic anticommunist Catholic slop while failing to stand up for his people in Minnesota. His praise for Rubio's ethnonationalist rant in Munich plus his Jordan Peterson-level understanding of Marx gives away the game.

Satanic Panic recycling is harmful in 3 ways.
YouTube video by AntifascistDad Satanic Panic recycling is harmful in 3 ways.

1) Morbid confabulation is bad for everyone, esp young people.
2) If you weren’t obsessed with evil you could be smashing fascism.
3) Morbid spiritual bypassing is still spiritual bypassing.

I mean he does seem to know his Augustine, Aquinas, even Heidegger that old Nazi dreamer. And that gives him a certain untouchable glow.

I want all my Catholic homies to think about whether Bishop Bootlicker Barron is heading in the same direction as those old Irish Bishops who blessed Eoin O'Duffy's fascist volunteers as they sailed to fight for Franco under the Nazi flag.

297: The Epstein Satanic Panic — Conspirituality In the chaos of facts and allusions that swirl around the Epstein Files, the nearest available and resonant metaphysics are found in the recycling of Satanic Panic themes from the 1980s. They’re reac...

The Epstein Files have accelerated old Satanic Panic themes resurrected by QAnon. They’re reaching a peak in visibility and provocation through their ability to reduce the Epstein Class to the unsolvable problem of evil.

Michael Parenti (RIP) clocks Ezra Klein
YouTube video by AntifascistDad Michael Parenti (RIP) clocks Ezra Klein

Because liberals cannot center an analysis of class or capitalism, they have to treat each subject and crisis as though they are unique and unconnected problems of human nature, or infrastructure glitches that can be resolved through tweaks or hacks.

Disaster Capitalism, Disaster Spirituality
YouTube video by AntifascistDad Disaster Capitalism, Disaster Spirituality

The captains of *disaster capitalism* work on the brick-and-mortar level to seize distressed assets for privatization. But the charismatics of *disaster spirituality* parasitize the attention economy, seizing the passions of their followers.

Brief: Toxic Masculinity & The Epstein Files — Conspirituality Julian explores how toxic masculinity teaches men to dehumanize women and girls, as evidenced by email exchanges that play along with misogynistic attitudes and objectification.

Making sense of global human trafficking, which extends far beyond billionaires and royals, requires that men speak up against everyday dehumanization of women and girls, while actively fostering relational intelligence.

YouTube video by AntifascistDad 50 years of Satanic Panic tropes.

50 years of Satanic Panic tropes. Themes you're seeing today have been recycled from Michelle Remembers (1980) by Lawrence Pazder and Michelle Smith. The book was a fever dream of psychotherapy malpractice and Catholic anticommunist propaganda.
