Is Deepak Chopra finished? Two views: “great man of history falls” vs: “we get the gurus that capitalism produces." And with Chopra, we got a "construct, "to use his term, of late-stage capitalism trying to feel better about itself.

A wee audio essay on my favorite mantra.

Catholic married women: _________
Bishop Barron: Find God in domestic cares.

Exactly. Bootlick Barron! UBI for women Catholics! Go on, you can pay for it!
Bootlicker for Trump AND the manosphere.
"Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds."
True on the population level, but you never know what's under the skin of any given person. People get radicalized out of liberalism as well.

The causes of racist imperial oil violence are not irrational, or distant. They form the fabric of my city.
Long term, fostering antifascism in my neighborhood and community is the workable answer to the conditions that produce imperialism and the fascist boomerang.

I found out that in the 80s, Michael Parenti went on a yoga retreat at the Sivananda Ashram in the Bahamas. He clocked the BS immediately—unlike me when I showed up in spaces like that decades later. Was political training the difference?

Spirituality of antifascism. Three components:
1) self and co-regulation
2) prophetic drive
3) preparation for post-capitalist or post-collapse life through renunciation, simplicity, and gratitude and seeking grace in the present moment

Part 2 of my discussion with @bradleyonishi.bsky.social of @straightwhitejc.bsky.social how recruitment into Evangelicalism rhymes with fascist recruitment. Part 1 is up as well!

wow thank you for this!
No way! Bob Hilliard, RIP. I imagine you’re all very proud of him.
"So what's YOUR solution??? How could YOU do it better???"
Reparative responses to prickly liberals in the comments.
Because if that dismissiveness of structural critique is actually vertigo, maybe it's best to give the person a place to land.

Digging into the fascism-enabling political theology of Bishop Robert Barron.
POV: we've seen this before, with the bishops blessing the Irish blueshirts as they sailed to fight for Franco under that swastika flag.

Using SRA as a framework for understanding or speculating on the real criminality of the Epstein class = swimming in a misogynistic discourse that impedes understanding and action on the material conditions of CSA.

“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.

Don't sleep on the civil war erupting within MAHA as Tallow Daddy RFK Jr licks the Trump golf shoe and tells his followers that Roundup is okay after all. New episode with Mallory DeMille.

Always love talking to Michelle Cassandra Johnson about antiracism and resilience. I learn so much.

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.

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).

Gramsci's axiom can be an embodied experience.
youtube.com/shorts/kS4OV...
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.

Ah you know Augustine better than I!
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.

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.

Thank you! That was actually @julianwalker.bsky.social on that episode with me and Derek doing production!
I mean he does seem to know his Augustine, Aquinas, even Heidegger that old Nazi dreamer. And that gives him a certain untouchable glow.
