As far as my research suggests, this is the first attempt at reading A Clockwork Orange this way. Most other analyses see it as a story about universal human morality. I just don't think that's very interesting or possible (especially for a white Englishman).

A Clockwork Orange and the Myth of German De-Nazification
A Clockwork Orange and the Myth of German De-Nazification

2 years into the full-scale, live-streamed Israeli genocide against Palestinians, Germany's support is still unwavering. Why? Weren't they de-nazified after ww2? Didn't they 'learn from their history'? No they didn't. This is the subject of my new video essay:

Germany was never de-nazified. Thats the argument of my latest video essay. I use A Clockwork Orange as a metaphor to demonstrate this.

I need some help. Got laid-off on Friday: unannounced budget change + my position was first cut, so it was a total surprise. Thanks to a tax status loophole my employer manipulated, I cant get unemployment. In short im SOL

Anything you can give would be huge

Israel has killed more than 100 Palestinians since Hamas agreed on Friday to release all captives as part of the latest U.S. ceasefire proposal.

Not sure youโ€™ve seen these images here, but in the UK theyโ€™re arresting dangerous anti genocide protestors for โ€œsupporting terrorismโ€. You can sleep easier knowing these thugs are off the streets.

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.

Instead, 461 peopleโ€”including New Yorkersโ€”have been detained by the Israeli military.

They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

30 boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla remain steadfast, just 46 nautical miles from Gaza, despite relentless hostility from the Israeli navy. The Israeli navy has intercepted 13 boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla so far.

Pay attention to the language that will be used by much of the media.

The Global Sumud Flotilla never entered Israeli waters.

They are in international waters attempting to reach Palestinian waters.

Israel is once again breaking international law

Global Sumud Flotilla is live as Israel threatens to stop them from breaking the starvation siege of Gaza.

A reminder that they are not entering Israeli waters, but Palestinian waters.

Israel intends to violate international law once again.

I think this sentence actually encapsulates so much of Chomsky's theory of Manufacturing Consent. There's nothing strictly incorrect about it, but boy is it a choice, and those choices are revealing af.
