Podcast appearances and mentions of Jean Baudrillard

E se a realidade em que vivemos for apenas uma cópia sem original, e o mapa tiver substituído o território? Mergulhe na teoria de Jean Baudrillard e descubra como a nossa sociedade, saturada de imagens e informações, pode ter perdido o próprio sentido.

durée : 02:30:16 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Mathias Le Gargasson - De ses origines rurales à son amour de l'Amérique, de sa vision de la société de consommation à son constat sans appel de l'assassinat du réel, c'est à un portrait à la fois intellectuel et personnel que s'attèle ce “Bon plaisir” autour du philosophe à la pensée inclassable, Jean Baudrillard. - réalisation : Thomas Jost - invités : Jean Baudrillard Philosophe et sociologue; Léo Scheer Sociologue, producteur de télévision et écrivain qui a conçu et développé le projet Canal +; Paolo Fabri Sémioticien, professeur à l'université de Bologne; Hubert Tonka Sociologue et éditeur; Jean Nouvel Architecte; Jean-Edern Hallier; Chantal Thomas Romancière et académicienne

Já andamos nisto há cem episódios, a tentar desenhar essa periferia monstruosa em torno de uma cultura que se excede de tão recomendável, debitando exemplos, listas de autores e obras, “ideias flutuantes”, enaltecendo-se na sua acumulação esgotante, com esse enredo esfalfado em que as mesmas personagens inofensivas aperfeiçoam os gestos de mármore, com os seus conhecimentos fragmentados, desprovidos de um eixo, de um sentido de unidade e de um desejo de acção. Vemos por aí tudo tão mal digerido, sendo tão raros aqueles que trabalham a qualidade da sua culpa, quando um embate já vai exigindo outra pele, uma outra resolução das mentes, que por estes dias parecem cada vez mais baratas, mais submissas. Incapazes de urdir esses ventos que levam o fruto e a casca, estende-se uma terra cada vez mais longe de qualquer nexo profundo, onde se deixam embalar por contos infantis. Talvez só se possa produzir alguma perturbação cercando a cidadela, reunindo as forças de tudo o que esta procura expulsar para fora dos seus muros. Nem tudo pode desapontar, e se os insectos intemporais que mergulham o seu ferrão na carne destes dias nos dizem que o mundo está a dissipar-se a uma velocidade atroz, resta estudar os elementos antigos das grandes tradições. “Outros escrevam biografias/ passo a passo e dia a dia/ como se exumando o passado/ renascessem os biografados/ seguidos de extensa bibliografia// Estas, não: são vidas recuperadas/ por golpes fundos e agudos/ sem intenção de mostrar tudo,/ só querendo, no fim das facetas,/ revelar vidas lapidadas/ pela visão de um poeta”, eis o que anota Domingos Pellegrini a propósito do volume a que Leminski deu o singelo título “Vida”, a partir de quatro biografias (Trotski, Bashô, Cruz e Sousa e Jesus) que lhe fornecem os caracteres de uma radicalização em que é possível investigar como a vida poderia ou deveria ser, caso ultimasse esse sentido de “uma política da arte como experiência”. Jean Baudrillard ajuda-nos a compreender o que possa ser uma estratégia capaz de separar todas as letras do vazio, de virarmos a nosso favor o elemento de desagregação num tempo em que tudo conspira para nos separar. “Cansadas da dialéctica do sentido, as coisas encontraram um meio para lhe escapar: o de proliferarem até ao infinito, o de se potencializarem, o de se sobreporem à sua essência, numa escalada até aos extremos, numa obscenidade que lhes servirá, doravante, de finalidade imanente, e de razão insensata. Nada nos impede de pensarmos que é possível obter os mesmos efeitos numa ordem inversa – outra insensatez, também ela vitoriosa. A insensatez é vitoriosa em todos os sentidos – este é o próprio sentido do Mal. O universo não é dialéctico – está condenado aos extremos, não ao equilíbrio. Condenado ao antagonismo radical, não à reconciliação nem à síntese. Este é também o princípio do Mal, e exprime-se no génio maléfico do objecto, exprime-se na forma extática do objecto puro, na sua estratégia de vitória sobre o sujeito. Obteremos formas subtis de radicalização das qualidades secretas, e combateremos a obscenidade com as suas próprias armas. Ao mais verdadeiro do que o verdadeiro, oporemos o mais falso do que o falso. Não oporemos o belo e o feio, procuraremos o mais feio do que o feio: o monstruoso. (…) Nesta escalada até aos extremos, será talvez necessário opô-los radicalmente, mas será igualmente necessário juntar os efeitos da obscenidade e os efeitos da sedução. Procuraremos algo de mais rápido do que a comunicação: o desafio, o duelo.” Para este episódio fomos ao último reduto, ali onde a cultura se vê forçada a fazer o caminho todo do princípio do mundo até ao fim, sem pressas, tornando claro como o real exige paciência. Parece haver uma inversão, no sentido em que, hoje, começamos sempre pelo fim, e o mais difícil é recuperar as raízes. Mas nesse antro tão pouco recomendável, o habitual regime do beatério cultural aparece-nos cercado por todos os lados, e aquilo que o ameaça é que provoca em nós calafrios, abrindo-se num enredo de possibilidades clamorosas. Como assinala Louisa Yousfi, “a barbárie é uma vitalidade primitiva que permite a escrita verdadeira, o gesto puro, a poesia”. Pedimos ao minotauro que nos abrisse a porta do seu labirinto. A Poesia Incompleta persiste nesta cidade de muralhas derruídas como um castelo e uma latrina, um laboratório para os exercícios de expansão e contracção das virtualidades que a poesia enuncia e aprofunda, dessa lei da relatividade mais generosa, aplicada aos sujeitos. Talvez seja a última das moradas com a porta irrestritamente aberta para a rua onde se dá em directo essa operação de volte-face em que o culto leva a melhor e ainda troça e injuria as formas do espectáculo, e isto com um Ahab ao leme, o maior tirano e um dos raros insurrectos, encarnados ambos numa mesma figura trágica, comovente, mas com um humor que é uma verdadeira devastação inteligente, uma figura admiravelmente esquizofrénica, que dirige uma escavação arqueológica e um instituto de etnografia a partir desses projectos que quase todos sonham (ou dizem que sonham) e que quase sem excepção têm a lucidez de não levar por diante, para não submeterem os seus sonhos a uma decepção fatal. Por isso, aquilo não é uma livraria, antes uma interminável operação de coração aberto a um dos últimos loucos sísmicos não trancado nalgum museu ou a definhar para benefício da nossa distracção turística num zoológico.

Why does truth no longer seem to matter? In this episode, we explore the philosophical and psychological roots of today's crisis of reality. Drawing on Jean Baudrillard's theory of hyperreality and Carl Gustav Jung's concept of the Shadow, I unravel how modern society's obsession with materialism, the proliferation of simulations, and the repression of symbolic, non-material dimensions of human experience have led to the current breakdown of truth. We will examine how Baudrillard's insights reveal a world where images no longer reflect reality but replace it entirely, and how Jung's warning about the dangers of ignoring the unconscious has manifested in distorted, collective forms. Together, these perspectives illuminate why facts are increasingly dismissed in favour of emotionally compelling narratives. Finally, I propose a path forward: a reintegration of critical thinking and symbolic imagination as essential tools for restoring our relationship with reality and cultivating a culture where truth matters once again. Join me as we delve into the death of the real — and how we might yet reclaim it.CONNECT & SUPPORT

Hello Interactors,This week, the European Space Agency launched a satellite to "weigh" Earth's 1.5 trillion trees. It will give scientists deeper insight into forests and their role in the climate — far beyond surface readings. Pretty cool. And it's coming from Europe.Meanwhile, I learned that the U.S. Secretary of Defense — under Trump — had a makeup room installed in the Pentagon to look better on TV. Also pretty cool, I guess. And very American.The contrast was hard to miss. Even with better data, the U.S. shows little appetite for using geographic insight to actually address climate change. Information is growing. Willpower, not so much.So it was oddly clarifying to read a passage Christopher Hobson posted on Imperfect Notes from a book titled America by a French author — a travelogue of softs. Last week I offered new lenses through which to see the world, I figured I'd try this French pair on — to see America, and the world it effects, as he did.PAPER, POWER, AND PROJECTIONI still have a folded paper map of Seattle in the door of my car. It's a remnant of a time when physical maps reflected the reality before us. You unfolded a map and it innocently offered the physical world on a page. The rest was left to you — including knowing how to fold it up again.But even then, not all maps were neutral or necessarily innocent. Sure, they crowned capitals and trimmed borders, but they could also leave things out or would make certain claims. From empire to colony, from mission to market, maps often arrived not to reflect place, but to declare control of it. Still, we trusted it…even if was an illusion.I learned how to interrogate maps in my undergraduate history of cartography class — taught by the legendary cartographer Waldo Tobler. But even with that knowledge, when I was then taught how to make maps, that interrogation was more absent. I confidently believed I was mediating truth. The lines and symbols I used pointed to substance; they signaled a thing. I traced rivers from existing base maps with a pen on vellum and trusted they existed in the world as sure as the ink on the page. I cut out shading for a choropleth map and believed it told a stable story about population, vegetation, or economics. That trust was embodied in representation — the idea that a sign meant something enduring. That we could believe what maps told us.This is the world of semiotics — the study of how signs create meaning. American philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce offered a sturdy model: a sign (like a map line) refers to an object (the river), and its meaning emerges in interpretation. Meaning, in this view, is relational — but grounded. A stop sign, a national anthem, a border — they meant something because they pointed beyond themselves, to a world we shared.But there are cracks in this seemingly sturdy model.These cracks pose this question: why do we trust signs in the first place? That trust — in maps, in categories, in data — didn't emerge from neutrality. It was built atop agendas.Take the first U.S. census in 1790. It didn't just count — it defined. Categories like “free white persons,” “all other free persons,” and “slaves” weren't neutral. They were political tools, shaping who mattered and by how much. People became variables. Representation became abstraction.Or Carl Linnaeus, the 18th-century Swedish botanist who built the taxonomies we still use: genus, species, kingdom. His system claimed objectivity but was shaped by distance and empire. Linnaeus never left Sweden. He named what he hadn't seen, classified people he'd never met — sorting humans into racial types based on colonial stereotypes. These weren't observations. They were projections based on stereotypes gathered from travelers, missionaries, and imperial officials.Naming replaced knowing. Life was turned into labels. Biology became filing. And once abstracted, it all became governable, measurable, comparable, and, ultimately, manageable.Maps followed suit.What once lived as a symbolic invitation — a drawing of place — became a system of location. I was studying geography at a time (and place) when Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and GIScience was transforming cartography. Maps weren't just about visual representations; they were spatial databases. Rows, columns, attributes, and calculations took the place of lines and shapes on map. Drawing what we saw turned to abstracting what could then be computed so that it could then be visualized, yes, but also managed.Chris Perkins, writing on the philosophy of mapping, argued that digital cartographies didn't just depict the world — they constituted it. The map was no longer a surface to interpret, but a script to execute. As critical geographers Sam Hind and Alex Gekker argue, the modern “mapping impulse” isn't about understanding space — it's about optimizing behavior through it; in a world of GPS and vehicle automation, the map no longer describes the territory, it becomes it. Laura Roberts, writing on film and geography, showed how maps had fused with cinematic logic — where places aren't shown, but performed. Place and navigation became narrative. New York in cinema isn't a place — it's a performance of ambition, alienation, or energy. Geography as mise-en-scène.In other words, the map's loss of innocence wasn't just technical. It was ontological — a shift in the very nature of what maps are and what kind of reality they claim to represent. Geography itself had entered the domain of simulation — not representing space but staging it. You can simulate traveling anywhere in the world, all staged on Google maps. Last summer my son stepped off the train in Edinburgh, Scotland for the first time in his life but knew exactly where he was. He'd learned it driving on simulated streets in a simulated car on XBox. He walked us straight to our lodging.These shifts in reality over centuries weren't necessarily mistakes. They unfolded, emerged, or evolved through the rational tools of modernity — and for a time, they worked. For many, anyway. Especially for those in power, seeking power, or benefitting from it. They enabled trade, governance, development, and especially warfare. But with every shift came this question: at what cost?FROM SIGNS TO SPECTACLEAs early as the early 1900s, Max Weber warned of a world disenchanted by bureaucracy — a society where rationalization would trap the human spirit in what he called an iron cage. By mid-century, thinkers pushed this further.Michel Foucault revealed how systems of knowledge — from medicine to criminal justice — were entangled with systems of power. To classify was to control. To represent was to discipline. Roland Barthes dissected the semiotics of everyday life — showing how ads, recipes, clothing, even professional wrestling were soaked in signs pretending to be natural.Guy Debord, in the 1967 The Society of the Spectacle, argued that late capitalism had fully replaced lived experience with imagery. “The spectacle,” he wrote, “is not a collection of images, but a social relation among people, mediated by images.”Then came Jean Baudrillard — a French sociologist, media theorist, and provocateur — who pushed the critique of representation to its limit. In the 1980s, where others saw distortion, he saw substitution: signs that no longer referred to anything real. Most vividly, in his surreal, gleaming 1986 travelogue America, he described the U.S. not as a place, but as a performance — a projection without depth, still somehow running.Where Foucault showed that knowledge was power, and Debord showed that images replaced life, Baudrillard argued that signs had broken free altogether. A map might once distort or simplify — but it still referred to something real. By the late 20th century, he argued, signs no longer pointed to anything. They pointed only to each other.You didn't just visit Disneyland. You visited the idea of America — manufactured, rehearsed, rendered. You didn't just use money. You used confidence by handing over a credit card — a symbol of wealth that is lighter and moves faster than any gold.In some ways, he was updating a much older insight by another Frenchman. When Alexis de Tocqueville visited America in the 1830s, he wasn't just studying law or government — he was studying performance. He saw how Americans staged democracy, how rituals of voting and speech created the image of a free society even as inequality and exclusion thrived beneath it. Tocqueville wasn't cynical. He simply understood that America believed in its own image — and that belief gave it a kind of sovereign feedback loop.Baudrillard called this condition simulation — when representation becomes self-contained. When the distinction between real and fake no longer matters because everything is performance. Not deception — orchestration.He mapped four stages of this logic:* Faithful representation – A sign reflects a basic reality. A map mirrors the terrain.* Perversion of reality – The sign begins to distort. Think colonial maps as logos or exclusionary zoning.* Pretending to represent – The sign no longer refers to anything but performs as if it does. Disneyland isn't America — it's the fantasy of America. (ironically, a car-free America)* Pure simulation – The sign has no origin or anchor. It floats. Zillow heatmaps, Uber surge zones — maps that don't reflect the world, but determine how you move through it.We don't follow maps as they were once known anymore. We follow interfaces.And not just in apps. Cities themselves are in various stages of simulation. New York still sells itself as a global center. But in a distributed globalized and digitized economy, there is no center — only the perversion of an old reality. Paris subsidizes quaint storefronts not to nourish citizens, but to preserve the perceived image of Paris. Paris pretending to be Paris. Every city has its own marketing campaign. They don't manage infrastructure — they manage perception. The skyline is a product shot. The streetscape is marketing collateral and neighborhoods are optimized for search.Even money plays this game.The U.S. dollar wasn't always king. That title once belonged to the British pound — backed by empire, gold, and industry. After World War II, the dollar took over, pegged to gold under the Bretton Woods convention — a symbol of American postwar power stability…and perversion. It was forged in an opulent, exclusive, hotel in the mountains of New Hampshire. But designed in the style of Spanish Renaissance Revival, it was pretending to be in Spain. Then in 1971, Nixon snapped the dollar's gold tether. The ‘Nixon Shock' allowed the dollar to float — its value now based not on metal, but on trust. It became less a store of value than a vessel of belief. A belief that is being challenged today in ways that recall the instability and fragmentation of the pre-WWII era.And this dollar lives in servers, not Industrial Age iron vaults. It circulates as code, not coin. It underwrites markets, wars, and global finance through momentum alone. And when the pandemic hit, there was no digging into reserves.The Federal Reserve expanded its balance sheet with keystrokes — injecting trillions into the economy through bond purchases, emergency loans, and direct payments. But at the same time, Trump 1.0 showed printing presses rolling, stacks of fresh bills bundled and boxed — a spectacle of liquidity. It was monetary policy as theater. A simulation of control, staged in spreadsheets by the Fed and photo ops by the Executive Branch. Not to reflect value, but to project it. To keep liquidity flowing and to keep the belief intact.This is what Baudrillard meant by simulation. The sign doesn't lie — nor does it tell the truth. It just works — as long as we accept it.MOOD OVER MEANINGReality is getting harder to discern. We believe it to be solid — that it imposes friction. A law has consequences. A price reflects value. A city has limits. These things made sense because they resist us. Because they are real.But maybe that was just the story we told. Maybe it was always more mirage than mirror.Now, the signs don't just point to reality — they also replace it. We live in a world where the image outpaces the institution. Where the copy is smoother than the original. Where AI does the typing. Where meaning doesn't emerge — it arrives prepackaged and pre-viral. It's a kind of seductive deception. It's hyperreality where performance supersedes substance. Presence and posture become authority structured in style.Politics is not immune to this — it's become the main attraction.Trump's first 100 days didn't aim to stabilize or legislate but to signal. Deportation as UFC cage match — staged, brutal, and televised. Tariff wars as a way of branding power — chaos with a catchphrase. Climate retreat cast as perverse theater. Gender redefined and confined by executive memo. Birthright citizenship challenged while sedition pardoned. Even the Gulf of Mexico got renamed. These aren't policies, they're productions.Power isn't passing through law. It's passing through the affect of spectacle and a feed refresh.Baudrillard once wrote that America doesn't govern — it narrates. Trump doesn't manage policy, he manages mood. Like an actor. When America's Secretary of Defense, a former TV personality, has a makeup studio installed inside the Pentagon it's not satire. It's just the simulation, doing what it does best: shining under the lights.But this logic runs deeper than any single figure.Culture no longer unfolds. It reloads. We don't listen to the full album — we lift 10 seconds for TikTok. Music is made for algorithms. Fashion is filtered before it's worn. Selfhood is a brand channel. Identity is something to monetize, signal, or defend — often all at once.The economy floats too. Meme stocks. NFTs. Speculative tokens. These aren't based in value — they're based in velocity. Attention becomes the currency.What matters isn't what's true, but what trends. In hyperreality, reference gives way to rhythm. The point isn't to be accurate. The point is to circulate. We're not being lied to.We're being engaged. And this isn't a bug, it's a feature.Which through a Baudrillard lens is why America — the simulation — persists.He saw it early. Describing strip malls, highways, slogans, themed diners he saw an America that wasn't deep. That was its genius he saw. It was light, fast paced, and projected. Like the movies it so famously exports. It didn't need justification — it just needed repetition.And it's still repeating.Las Vegas is the cathedral of the logic of simulation — a city that no longer bothers pretending. But it's not alone. Every city performs, every nation tries to brand itself. Every policy rollout is scored like a product launch. Reality isn't navigated — it's streamed.And yet since his writing, the mood has shifted. The performance continues, but the music underneath it has changed. The techno-optimism of Baudrillard's ‘80s an ‘90s have curdled. What once felt expansive now feels recursive and worn. It's like a show running long after the audience has gone home. The rager has ended, but Spotify is still loudly streaming through the speakers.“The Kids' Guide to the Internet” (1997), produced by Diamond Entertainment and starring the unnervingly wholesome Jamison family. It captures a moment of pure techno-optimism — when the Internet was new, clean, and family-approved. It's not just a tutorial; it's a time capsule of belief, staged before the dream turned into something else. Before the feed began to feed on us.Trumpism thrives on this terrain. And yet the world is changing around it. Climate shocks, mass displacement, spiraling inequality — the polycrisis has a body count. Countries once anchored to American leadership are squinting hard now, trying to see if there's anything left behind the screen. Adjusting the antenna in hopes of getting a clearer signal. From Latin America to Southeast Asia to Europe, the question grows louder: Can you trust a power that no longer refers to anything outside itself?Maybe Baudrillard and Tocqueville are right — America doesn't point to a deeper truth. It points to itself. Again and again and again. It is the loop. And even now, knowing this, we can't quite stop watching. There's a reason we keep refreshing. Keep scrolling. Keep reacting. The performance persists — not necessarily because we believe in it, but because it's the only script still running.And whether we're horrified or entertained, complicit or exhausted, engaged or ghosted, hired or fired, immigrated or deported, one thing remains strangely true: we keep feeding it. That's the strange power of simulation in an attention economy. It doesn't need conviction. It doesn't need conscience. It just needs attention — enough to keep the momentum alive. The simulation doesn't care if the real breaks down. It just keeps rendering — soft, seamless, and impossible to look away from. Like a dream you didn't choose but can't wake up from.REFERENCESBarthes, R. (1972). Mythologies (A. Lavers, Trans.). Hill and Wang. (Original work published 1957)Baudrillard, J. (1986). America (C.

Was passiert, wenn deine Hologramme dich einsperren, weil sie denken, SIE wären das Original? Willkommen bei Star Trek: Prodigy S02E06 – „Imposter Syndrome“. Wir reden über Identitätskrisen, Replikator-Tests und warum Milchshakes philosophischer sind, als du denkst. Außerdem: Baudrillard, der französische Q der Medienkritik. Jetzt reinhören – es wird absurd, tiefgründig und garantiert doppelt!

Cameron Carsten is back with us to enjoy an exploration of Jean Baudrillard's concept of “absolute advertising” and its transformation of communication, desire, and the public sphere.  This discussion addresses the rise of techno-fascism and the symbolic saturation of everyday life in view of Baudrillard's 'Simulacra and Simulation'. What happens when advertising becomes the default mode of mediation, indistinguishable from culture itself? Together, we unravel how content collapses into form—and how even resistance may be a commodity.Cameron's blog: https://camtology.substack.com/Hire the inimitable Adam C.

durée : 00:46:01 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Mathias Le Gargasson - En 2005, le philosophe Jean Baudrillard, auteur de "La Société de consommation" revient sur son analyse de la disparition du réel en cherchant à en faire connaître les tenants et les aboutissants. Le réel étant mort, nous ne vivons que dans de la fausseté, une hyperréalité qui se prend pour le réel. - réalisation : Thomas Jost - invités : Jean Baudrillard Philosophe et sociologue

Released in 1999, The Matrix has become a timeless sci-fi classic. Whether it's the groundbreaking visual effects, the positively bonkers action sequences, or the disturbing looks at a world that has been consumed by AI and virtual experiences, there's something that will resonate with just about any member of the audience, even a quarter century after its initial box office success. But there's one moment in particular that perfectly illustrates the true horror at the heart of The Matrix. Since the titular concept of the film can only exist because humans have all been placed in a form of stasis, with their very bodies used to power the machines that now rule the world and create their shared reality, the big reveal of how that works needs to be suitably disturbing. And boy, does it deliver. When Neo (Keanu Reeves) chooses to wake up to actual reality, he's revealed as a hairless body, covered in goo, with feeding and breathing tubes stuffed down his throat. While not quite the iconic moment that the bullet time fights and martial arts sequences are, it might very well be the most powerful moment in the film or its sequels.It's a moment that has stayed with us for over 25 years, which is why today we're asking the question: does the human body really generate enough electrical power to essentially serve as a battery?Take the red pill in the latest episode of Does it Fly? for the answers…https://youtu.be/9e-CZiFpd6oSUGGESTED VIEWING We based the majority of today's discussion just on the first film in the franchise, which is, of course, 1999's The Matrix. If you need a viewing order, it's followed by The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions in 2003. But we've gotta say, you're missing out if you don't check out the bizarre and cool The Animatrix, which fills in a lot of backstory. And count us among the folks who think 2021's The Matrix Resurrections is a much sharper movie than it gets credit for.FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! The Simulation ArgumentEver wonder if you're living in a computer simulation? The roots of that argument come from Nick Bostrum and the details on it can be found here.How Much Power Output From Humans?Believe it or not, there have been respectable studies about the potential for the human body to generate power for small devices from everyday activities. A summary can be found here with some more in depth information here. Somewhat related, it's worth considering the difference between the efficiency of solar energy power and the use of power from biofuels.The Matrix Starter PackThere are three books that are key to understanding the themes of The Matrix, and it seems they were required reading on set of the film. They are: Jean Baudrillard's 1981 philosophical treatise Simulacra and Simulation, William Gibson's seminal work of cyberpunk fiction Neuromancer (which has yet to get the screen adaptation it deserves), and 1995's Out of Control by Kevin Kelly.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?For a more recent take on a sci-fi dystopia, allow us to recommend our Squid Game episode!The disturbing practical effects of the Neo awakening scene does recall some of the more unsettling cyberpunk aspects of RoboCop, which we covered here.FOLLOW US!Stay in the loop!

Hello Interactors,From election lies to climate denial, misinformation isn't just about deception — it's about making truth feel unknowable. Fact-checking can't keep up, and trust in institutions is fading. If reality is up for debate, where does that leave us?I wanted to explore this idea of “post-truth” and ways to move beyond it — not by enforcing truth from the top down, but by engaging in inquiry and open dialogue. I examine how truth doesn't have to be imposed but continually rediscovered — shaped through questioning, testing, and refining what we know. If nothing feels certain, how do we rebuild trust in the process of knowing something is true?THE SLOW SLIDE OF FACTUAL FOUNDATIONSThe term "post-truth" was first popularized in the 1990s but took off in 2016. That's when Oxford Dictionaries named it their Word of the Year. Defined as “circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief”, the term reflects a shift in how truth functions in public discourse.Though the concept of truth manipulation is not new, post-truth represents a systemic weakening of shared standards for knowledge-making. Sadly, truth in the eyes of most of the public is no longer determined by factual verification but by ideological alignment and emotional resonance.The erosion of truth infrastructure — once upheld by journalism, education, and government — has destabilized knowledge credibility. Mid-20th-century institutions like The New York Times and the National Science Foundation ensured rigorous verification. But with rising political polarization, digital misinformation, and distrust in authority, these institutions have lost their stabilizing role, leaving truth increasingly contested rather than collectively affirmed.The mid-20th century exposed truth's fragility as propaganda reshaped public perception. Nazi ideology co-opted esoteric myths like the Vril Society, a fictitious occult group inspired by the 1871 novel The Coming Race, which depicted a subterranean master race wielding a powerful life force called "Vril." This myth fed into Nazi racial ideology and SS occult research, prioritizing myth over fact. Later, as German aviation advanced, the Vril myth evolved into UFO conspiracies, claiming secret Nazi technologies stemmed from extraterrestrial contact and Vril energy, fueling rumors of hidden Antarctic bases and breakaway civilizations.Distorted truths have long justified extreme political action, demonstrating how knowledge control sustains authoritarianism. Theodor Adorno and Hannah Arendt, Jewish-German intellectuals who fled the Nazis, later warned that even democracies are vulnerable to propaganda. Adorno (1951) analyzed how mass media manufactures consent, while Arendt (1972) showed how totalitarian regimes rewrite reality to maintain control.Postwar skepticism, civil rights movements, and decolonization fueled academic critiques of traditional, biased historical narratives. By the late 20th century, universities embraced theories questioning the stability of truth, labeled postmodernist, critical, and constructivist.Once considered a pillar of civilization, truth was reframed by French postmodernist philosophers Michel Foucault and Jean Baudrillard as a construct of power. Foucault argued institutions define truth to reinforce authority, while Baudrillard claimed modern society had replaced reality with media-driven illusions. While these ideas exposed existing power dynamics in academic institutions, they also fueled skepticism about objective truth — paving the way for today's post-truth crisis. Australian philosophy professor, Catherine (Cathy) Legg highlights how intellectual and cultural shifts led universities to question their neutrality, reinforcing postmodern critiques that foreground subjectivity, discourse, and power in shaping truth. Over time, this skepticism extended beyond academia, challenging whether any authority could claim objectivity without reinforcing existing power structures.These efforts to deconstruct dominant narratives unintentionally legitimized radical relativism — the idea that all truths hold equal weight, regardless of evidence or logic. This opened the door for "alternative facts", now weaponized by propaganda. What began as a challenge to authoritarian knowledge structures within academia escaped its origins, eroding shared standards of truth. In the post-truth era, misinformation, ideological mythmaking, and conspiracy theories thrive by rejecting objective verification altogether.Historian Naomi Oreskes describes "merchants of doubt" as corporate and political actors who manufacture uncertainty to obstruct policy and sustain truth relativism. By falsely equating expertise with opinion, they create the illusion of debate, delaying action on climate change, public health, and social inequities while eroding trust in science. In this landscape, any opinion can masquerade as fact, undermining those who dedicate their lives to truth-seeking.PIXELS AND MYTHOLOGY SHAPE THE GEOGRAPHYThe erosion of truth infrastructures has accelerated with digital media, which both globalizes misinformation and reinforces localized silos of belief. This was evident during COVID-19, where false claims — such as vaccine microchips — spread widely but took deeper root in communities with preexisting distrust in institutions. While research confirms that misinformation spreads faster than facts, it's still unclear if algorithmic amplification or deeper socio-political distrust are root causes.This ideological shift is strongest in Eastern Europe and parts of the U.S., where institutional distrust and digital subcultures fuel esoteric nationalism. Post-Soviet propaganda, economic instability, and geopolitical tensions have revived alternative knowledge systems in Russia, Poland, and the Balkans, from Slavic paganism to the return of the Vril myth, now fused with the Save Europe movement — a digital blend of racial mysticism, ethnic nostalgia, and reactionary politics.Above ☝️is a compilation of TikTok videos currently being pushed to my 21 year old son. They fuse ordinary, common, and recognizable pop culture imagery with Vril imagery (like UFO's and stealth bombers) and esoteric racist nationalism, religious fundamentalism, and hyper-masculine mythologies. A similar trend appears in post-industrial and rural America, where economic decline, government distrust, and cultural divides sustain conspiratorial thinking, religious fundamentalism, and hyper-masculine mythologies. The alt-right manosphere mirrors Eastern Europe's Vril revival, with figures like Zyzz and Bronze Age Pervert offering visions of lost strength. Both Vril and Save Europe frame empowerment as a return to ethnic or esoteric power (Vril) or militant resistance to diversity (Save Europe), turning myth into a tool of political radicalization.Climate change denial follows these localized patterns, where scientific consensus clashes with economic and cultural narratives. While misinformation spreads globally, belief adoption varies, shaped by economic hardship, institutional trust, and political identity.In coal regions like Appalachia and Poland, skepticism stems from economic survival, with climate policies seen as elitist attacks on jobs. In rural Australia, extreme weather fuels conspiracies about government overreach rather than shifting attitudes toward climate action. Meanwhile, in coastal Louisiana and the Netherlands, where climate impacts are immediate and undeniable, denial is rarer, though myths persist, often deflecting blame from human causes.Just as Vril revivalism, Save Europe, and the MAGA manosphere thrive on post-industrial uncertainty, climate misinformation can also flourish in economically vulnerable regions. Digital platforms fuel a worldview skewed, where scrolling myths and beliefs are spatially glued — a twisted take on 'think globally, act locally,' where fantasy folklore becomes fervent ideology.FINDING TRUTH WITH FRACTURED FACTS…AND FRIENDSThe post-truth era has reshaped how we think about knowledge. The challenge isn't just misinformation but growing distrust in expertise, institutions, and shared reality. In classrooms and research, traditional ways of proving truth often fail when personal belief outweighs evidence. Scholars and educators now seek new ways to communicate knowledge, moving beyond rigid certainty or radical relativism.Professor Legg has turned to the work of 19th-century American philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce, whose ideas about truth feel surprisingly relevant today. Peirce didn't see truth as something fixed or final but as a process — something we work toward through questioning, testing, and refining our understanding over time.His approach, known as pragmatism, emphasizes collaborative inquiry, self-correction, and fallibilism — the idea that no belief is ever beyond revision. In a time when facts are constantly challenged, Peirce's philosophy offers not just a theory of truth, but a process for rebuilding trust in knowledge itself.For those unfamiliar with Peirce and American pragmatism, a process that requires collaborating with truth deniers may seem not only unfun, but counterproductive. But research on deradicalization strategies suggests that confrontational debunking (a failed strategy Democrats continue to adhere to) often backfires. Lecturing skeptics only reinforces belief entrenchment.In the early 1700's Britain was embroiled in the War of Spanish Succession. Political factions spread blatant falsehoods through partisan newspapers. It prompted Jonathan Swift, the author of Gulliver's Travels, to observe in The Art of Political Lying (1710) that"Reasoning will never make a man correct an ill opinion, which by reasoning he never acquired."This is likely where we get the more familiar saying: you can't argue someone out of a belief they didn't reason themselves into. Swift's critique of propaganda and public gullibility foreshadowed modern research on cognitive bias. People rarely abandon deeply held beliefs when confronted with facts.Traditionally, truth is seen as either objectively discoverable (classical empiricism) — like physics — or constructed by discourse and power (postmodernism) — like the Lost Cause myth, which recast the Confederacy as noble rather than pro-slavery. It should be noted that traditional truth also comes about by paying for it. Scientific funding from private sources often dictates which research is legitimized. As Legg observes,“Ironically, such epistemic assurance perhaps rendered educated folk in the modern era overly gullible to the written word as authority, and the resulting ‘fetishisation' of texts in the education sector has arguably led to some of our current problems.”Peirce, however, offered a different path:truth is not a fixed thing, but an eventual process of consensus reached by a community of inquirers.It turns out open-ended dialogue that challenges inconsistencies within a belief system is shown to be a more effective strategy.This process requires time, scrutiny, and open dialogue. None of which are very popular these days! It should be no surprise that in today's fractured knowledge-making landscape of passive acceptance of authority or unchecked personal belief, ideological silos reinforce institutional dogma or blatant misinformation. But Peirce's ‘community of inquiry' model suggests that truth can't be lectured or bought but strengthened through collective reasoning and self-correction.Legg embraces this model because it directly addresses why knowledge crises emerge and how they can be countered. The digital age has resulted in a world where beliefs are reinforced within isolated networks rather than tested against broader inquiry. Trump or Musk can tweet fake news and it spreads to millions around the world instantaneously.During Trump's 2016 campaign, false claims that Pope Francis endorsed him spread faster than legitimate news. Misinformation, revisionist history, and esoteric nationalism thrive in these unchecked spaces.Legg's approach to critical thinking education follows Peirce's philosophy of inquiry. She helps students see knowledge not as fixed truths but as a network of interwoven, evolving understandings — what Peirce called an epistemic cable made up of many small but interconnected fibers. Rather than viewing the flood of online information as overwhelming or deceptive, she encourages students to see it as a resource to be navigated with the right tools and the right intent.To make this practical, she introduces fact-checking strategies used by professionals, teaching students to ask three key questions when evaluating an online source:* Who is behind this information? (Identifying the author's credibility and possible biases)* What is the evidence for their claims? (Assessing whether their argument is supported by verifiable facts)* What do other sources say about these claims? (Cross-referencing to see if the information holds up in a broader context)By practicing these habits, students learn to engage critically with digital content. It strengthens their ability to distinguish reliable knowledge from misinformation rather than simply memorizing facts. It also meets them where they are without judgement of whatever beliefs they may hold at the time of inquiry.If post-truth misinformation reflects a shift in how we construct knowledge, can we ever return to a shared trust in truth — or even a shared reality? As institutional trust erodes, fueled by academic relativism, digital misinformation, and ideological silos, myths like climate denial and Vril revivalism take hold where skepticism runs deep. Digital platforms don't just spread misinformation; they shape belief systems, reinforcing global echo chambers.But is truth lost, or just contested? Peirce saw truth as a process, built through inquiry and self-correction. Legg extends this, arguing that fact-checking alone won't solve post-truth; instead, we need a culture of questioning — where people test their own beliefs rather than being told what's right or wrong.I won't pretend to have the answer. You can tell by my bibliography that I'm a fan of classical empiricism. But I'm also a pragmatic interactionist who believes knowledge is refined through collaborative inquiry. I believe, as Legg does, that to move beyond post-truth isn't about the impossible mission of defeating misinformation — it's about making truth-seeking more compelling than belief. Maybe even fun.What do you think? This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit interplace.io

Welcome to the Transformation Age We are living in one of the most extraordinary moments in human history. The world is shifting beneath our feet — politically, economically, technologically, ecologically, and spiritually. This new era is characterized by rapid, self-reinforcing transformations across all aspects of life. Unlike previous historical shifts, change itself has become the dominant force, creating a world that is increasingly difficult to navigate with traditional ways of thinking. This is the mission of The Big Picture Mind — to cultivate a way of thinking that can navigate these vast changes, helping us make sense of complexity rather than being overwhelmed by it. Why Big Picture Thinking? Too often, our world is shaped by small ideologies masquerading as big pictures—fragmented views that fail to address the depth and interconnectedness of our crises. “Big picture” minds are those that can rise above these limitations, synthesizing knowledge across disciplines, paradigms, and perspectives. Robb introduces the idea that knowledge has evolved through four key stages: Disciplinary – Specialized fields of study (economics, psychology, physics, etc.). Interdisciplinary – The blending of fields to generate new insights (e.g., behavioral economics). Transdisciplinary – Actual big pictures in the 21st century, identifying patterns that connect across all knowledge. Arch-Disciplinary – An emerging, speculative level that distills the core onto-epistemic primitives of the universe common to all big pictures. To meet the demands of the Transformation Age, we must think more holographically, learning to see the interwoven nature of reality with greater clarity and wisdom. The Five Crises Defining Our Time Robb outlines five seismic shifts reshaping our world: Ecological Transformation We are transitioning from the Holocene to the Anthropocene, where human activity is the dominant force shaping the planet. Climate change, biodiversity loss, and ecological degradation are no longer distant threats—they are shaping our societies now. The Rise of Hyperreality Borrowing from philosopher Jean Baudrillard, Robb describes how we increasingly live in a world of symbols detached from reality—a world where a meme coin can represent political power, and narratives are engineered rather than discovered. This disconnect is creating a profound crisis of discernment. The Meaning Crisis Across the world, people are struggling with existential confusion, depression, and a loss of purpose. Without a credible story of wholeness, individuals feel unmoored, caught between outdated mythologies and an arid, reductionist modernism. The Technological Singularity AI is accelerating toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and beyond. If left unchecked, this could reify neo-feudal social structures, concentrating power among a small elite while diminishing social mobility. Governance systems are woefully unprepared for the scale of these disruptions. The Breakdown of Global Governance The world order that has existed since World War II—often referred to as Pax Americana—is fracturing. In its place, we see the return of realist imperialism, economic volatility, and social instability. Populism and reactionary authoritarianism are symptoms of this deeper structural unraveling. The Metacrisis and the Integral Response These crises do not exist in isolation — they form a “metacrisis”, an interlocking systemic breakdown of coherence at all levels of human life. This calls for a new kind of intelligence — one that is capable of integrating perspectives rather than getting lost in fragmentation.

This week on Uncolonized, it's a solo episode with me, Gavin Stephens. In Part 1, I dive into WWE's big move to Netflix, focusing on the reception of Hulk Hogan. I explore how Jean Baudrillard's theory of hyperreality applies to Hogan and why he embodies America's myth-making machine. I also share my evolving perspective on politics—shifting from the traditional left vs. right divide to a more direct Workers vs. Owners framework.In Part 2 (available exclusively on Patreon), I continue the discussion, tackling the TikTok ban and why America has always been a plutocracy.Tune in for deep analysis, cultural critique, and unfiltered takes.

Avec Arnaud Saint-Martin, sociologue. On connait tous la phrase de Neil Armstrong, le premier homme à avoir marché sur la lune, en 1969 : « C'est un petit pas pour l'homme, un pas de géant pour l'humanité ». Depuis 1972, plus aucun homme n’y était retourné. Mais avec la mission Artémis lancée par Donald Trump, les Etats-Unis repartent à la conquête de l’espace. Je dois dire que je n'avais jamais pensé à questionner le bien fondé de ces expéditions, que ce soit pour aller sur la Lune, et pourquoi pas un jour sur Mars. Je me suis toujours dit qu’il devait y avoir d’excellentes raisons scientifiques de le faire. Arnaud Saint-Martin a complètement changé mon regard sur ce sujet. Il est sociologue des sciences au CNRS, spécialiste des activités spatiales et co-auteur avec Irénée Régnauld d’une “Histoire de la conquête spatiale” (La Fabrique, 2024). Leur livre raconte la construction de l’évidence spatiale, et montre comment la communication sur les recherches scientifiques a éclipsé les usages militaires et commerciaux de l’espace. L’exploration humaine de Mars a-t-elle le moindre intérêt scientifique ? Comment s’est affirmé le paradigme de la conquête dans l’histoire spatiale ? A-t-on besoin d’aller dans l’espace ?Un épisode des Idées Larges avec Arnaud Saint-Martin, sociologue. Références : - Arnaud Saint Martin, Irénée Régnauld, Histoire de la conquête spatiale.Des fusées nazies aux astrocapitalistes du New Space, La Fabrique, 2024- Konstantin Eduardovitch Tsiolkovski, lettre à B N.

Dive into the profound insights of Jean Baudrillard, a key figure in 20th-century philosophy. Known for his influential work, Simulacra and Simulation, Baudrillard's intellectual journey began with The System of Objects. This pivotal book examines the rise of sign-value and the impact of early serial commodities. By integrating structural and material analysis with semiotics and social psychoanalysis, Baudrillard provides a fresh perspective on 20th-century capitalism. The System of Objects, evolving from his Ph.D. thesis, remains a significant yet understated contribution to philosophical thought. 0:00: Introduction2:53: Ideological Home & Interior Design5:00: Functionalism to the Symbolic7:49: Antiques & Collections10:38: Serial Motivation and a Lack16:02: New Language, Advertising and Credit20:20: A Message #JeanBaudrillard #TheSystemofObjects #SimulacraandSimulation #sign-value #20th-centurycapitalism #semiotics #socialpsychoanalysis #philosophy Learn more about your ad choices.

Twentieth-century European fascism boasted of a strong State run by a right-wing Fuher or demagogue, i.e., dictator. Both in Italy and Nazi Germany, the nuclear family was central to the enthusiasm for patriotic nationalism and militarism. The fascist parties ran on anti-democratic and anti-capitalist platforms; this was their con. The parties were pro-corporatism or in other words demanded a “corporative state.” A racialized social Darwinism was present, which led to the embrace of expansionary militarism and imperialism. Fascism has been a global phenomenon for the last 4,000 to 6,000 years. It is in the massed. It materialized during an economic crisis (Great Depression). There is a history of terror and violence inflicted on the Other, e.g., Jews, Communists, socialists, homosexuals, Indians, Negroes, immigrants, which maintains the status quo. With twentieth-century fascism there was a total unification with the State. The unity was based on an enforced symbiosis, whereby the “mobilized passions” were utilized to destroy unions and any forms of opposition to the State. Spectacle, commemorations, and state-run youth organizations dominated space and time, so private self was eliminated. One of a body of the State. The self was merged with the public self, e.g., being Catholic and being Italian, based on this collectivization of all spheres of life. Twenty-first century fascism in the U.S. requires Reich's application of “functional thinking.” Twentieth and twenty-first century fascism are simultaneously identical and antithetical (in opposition). For example, body and mind are not two not one: a functional unity whereby psyche and soma are two sides of the same coin. The function of fascism is to physically and ideologically enclose citizens in the pursuit of maintaining the status quo by any means necessary, e.g., war, propaganda, etc. This naïve application allows us to consider how twentieth-century fascism is a continuously functional process of maintaining the status quo. Therefore, twenty-first century American fascism relies on the projection of a weak state and ineffectual leader, e.g., Bush II, Biden. The centrality of the nuclear family (sex-negating, compulsive monogamy) remains with room for cultural differences: same-sex, bi-racial, etc. For fifty years, the slogan “government is the problem” prevails. The “corporative state” of twentieth-century fascism is actualized in the complete corporate takeover of the State in the U.S. Instead of antiparliamentarianism, the emphasis of both parties is to “save democracy” and “save the Republic.” This saving is about maintaining class divisions for the global power elite to reap benefits from. In short, to return to a restorative period (status quo) or Make America Great Again. Social Darwinism is still the norm, but instead of a racist ideology, a purely self-interested model is all-pervasive: neoliberal ideology, i.e., run everything like a business, including oneself. Militarism and imperialism remain in U.S. but based on invisible enemies abroad. The U.S. empire has shifted into a predominantly Connection role (armaments), so other nations can fight. The racism of slavery and Jim Crow remains in areas of the country and certainly on the Indigenous “reservations” (enclosures). However, fascism is more personalized: each individual participates in the hateful Othering online, e.g., LGBTQ+, immigrants, Republicans, Democrats, in unity with the Nation. Twentieth-century fascism required the mobilization of emotion and passion, which is in contrast with twenty-first century fascism. Jean Baudrillard recognized that the new system is one of universalized deterrence. Deterrence is a strange form of activity: “it is what causes something not to take place.” Politics and the media have erected a social (digital) system to pacify the citizenry. The compulsion to communicate and cancel manifests as a digital panopticon whereby the State,

This episode includes a discussion of the history of the swastika as well as a discussion of War (e.g., assassination of al-Zawari) and Media games (Ain't It Awful). The U.S. war machine influences the mainstream media to manufacture consent for war. In the book, “The Gulf War Did Not Take Place,” Jean Baudrillard describes how totalizing media coverage of an event, e.g., war, is an invitation into a game (con). The aim is to create consensus and illusions in the mind of the citizen:  “Information has a profound function of deception. It matters little what it “informs” us about, its “coverage” of events matters little since it is precisely no more than a cover: its purpose is to produce consensus by flat encephalogram.” The sexual life of children and adolescents (e.g., Columbine killers) as well as the dominant socialization process are described in this episode. This is in the context of constructing a manuscript titled “Games Fascists Play: The Psychology of Supremacy” and solutions to games. Additionally, the 2020 U.S. presidential election is discussed; not from the perspective of “stop the steal,” and instead, Google's role in the manipulation of potential voters. In 2020, ultra-monopoly Google, encouraged Democrats or Democrat-leaning voters to show up to vote. Voting badges were placed at the top of their social media newsfeeds, but these were specifically and intentionally absent from news feeds for Republicans. The way Google's search engine functions also has a liberal bias. Additionally, Google's ability to use “ephemeral impressions” to make lasting impressions on undecided voters swayed millions of votes away from Trump. This manipulation and behavioral modification led to a Biden White House (let's all just forget about Hunter's laptop). Despite Trump's decry of “election interference” and that the election was “stolen,” a state-corporate symbiosis by one of the most powerful corporations (Google) on the planet heavily influenced the vote totals.

Why is there a Parthenon… in Nashville? Jean Baudrillard might have the answer. In Episode 112 of Overthink, Ellie and David pick apart hyperreality: the provocative suggestion that our reality today is so inundated by signs that the gap between reality and simulation has all but broken down. Your hosts talk through the history and experience of hyperreality, from its presence in Superman and Bridgerton to its uncanny role in legitimizing presidential power. And they wonder: does the idea of hyperreality motivate political action, or does it slide into complacent provincialism?Check out the episode's extended cut here!Works DiscussedJean Baudrillard, AmericaJean Baudrillard, Simulacra and SimulationDaniel Boorstin, The Image: A Guide to Pseudo-Events in AmericaDon DeLillo, White NoiseUmberto Eco, Travels in HyperrealitySusan Sontag, Regarding the Pain of OthersSadie Plant, The Most Radical GestureGuy Debord, The Society of the SpectacleAn American Family (1973)Superman (1978)Love Island (2023)Bridgerton (2005)Support the showPatreon | patreon.com/overthinkpodcast Website | overthinkpodcast.comInstagram & Twitter | @overthink_podEmail | dearoverthink@gmail.comYouTube | Overthink podcast

Welcome to the desert of the real.Hotel Bar Sessions podcast is predicated on the idea that the three of us meet up at bar, order-up some drinks, and then settle in to talk philosophy. But—spoiler alert—none of that is true. There is no bar, sadly there are not drinks, and the conversation takes place through the instrumentality of digital technology without us ever meeting up and being together in the same space. It's all an artifice, or what Jean Baudrillard called "simulation." We point this out not to ruin your enjoyment but because it is this very issue—simulation—that we are examining in this week's simulated conversation. In keeping with our tradition of ending each season with a "deep dive" episode, we're focusing this week on the short book that made this a subject of conversation: Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulation, originally published in French in 1981.Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/podcast/baudrillards-simulacra-and-simulation-------------------If you enjoy Hotel Bar Sessions podcast, please be sure to subscribe and submit a rating/review!

Who loves shopping?! According to French sociologist Jean Baudrillard, “in the Western world, materialism has become the new, dominant system of meaning. Atheism hasn't replaced cultural Christianity; shopping has.” Join us for part 5 of our 8 part series entitled Made New as we look at the Christian Practice of Simplicity and it's potential to reshape our lives more and more into the image of Jesus.

In the halls of modern government the info-wizard is king. Media consultants, political strategists, whatever title they assume they always promise the same thing: magic worked through information control; spells cast by incantation.In the first week of March 2022, only a few days after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a slew of articles came out in Western publications announcing the advent of the anti-Russian infowar.To say that this infowar was launched with much fanfare would be an understatement - within days of the Russo-Ukraine war beginning various Western publications were already suggesting that victory was on the horizon.The effect was eerie, with multiple outlets running the exact same headline. "Ukraine is winning the information war against Russia", proclaimed different writers at CNBC, Slate, and The Financial Times.No doubt this proclamation of victory was itself part of the infowar that the various authors purported to analyse - a self-licking ice cream cone if there ever was one.Yet as time went on it became clear that the anti-Russian infowar was not targeted at the Russian people, much less the Russian military - rather it was targeted at a Western domestic audience.The French philosopher Jean Baudrillard once declared that The Gulf War Did Not Take Place - it was merely broadcast as a sort of simulation on television screens across the world. If only Baudrillard had lived to see the anti-Russian infowar launched in early-2022.Partisan politics in the United States had long been drowned in a bathtub of propaganda by the time the anti-Russian infowar came along.As the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal raged in 1998, the American public asked themselves whether the President did or did not have sexual relations with that woman. The question was a factual one: did he or didn't he. Today such a reference to reality seems quaint.The factuality of various political attacks barely matters anymore as everything is treated as being part of some partisan "narrative" or "talking point".And so, when some people raised the possibility that President Joe Biden might be completely incapable of doing his job due to severe cognitive impairment, the factuality of this claim was never really addressed - it was simply dismissed as an obvious partisan attack, a "right-wing talking point".Last week we saw reality climb back in through the window: the President tried to debate his opponent on television and the world saw that America is being led by a man who is clearly not in command of his faculties.In this week's episode of Multipolarity, we are joined by Malcolm Kyeyune to discuss the saturation of the information space with propaganda of various forms.Are these really the savvy tricks that consultants and strategists claim them to be? Or are they a symptom of a political system experiencing deep decline - a system that can no longer deal with reality and finds itself instead retreating into fantasy?*** Be excellent to each other, and -Get us on Twitter.

UPPLÄSNING: Aya Kanbar Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Det är svårt att komma förbi Aya Kanbars ålder. När hon debuterade med ”Hyperverklighet” 2021 var hon en sjuttonårig gymnasist och recensenterna kallade henne ett fenomen, sensationell, självlysande, en exceptionell begåvning. Boken nominerades till inte mindre än tre priser: Katapultpriset, Borås Tidnings debutantpris och Sveriges Radios Lyrikpris.I dikterna framträder en poet som kaxigt leker med språket i en flimrande samtid. Begreppet ”hyperverklighet” myntades av den franske filosofen Jean Baudrillard, som en beskrivning av ett tillstånd där representationerna av verkligheten lever sitt eget liv och bilderna av världen kan framstå som verkligare än själva världen. Kanbar skriver: ”vi är unga & ren fantasi”. I juryns motivering till SR Lyrikpris-nomineringen hette det att diktsamlingen ”med vidöppna sinnen och sprudlande språkfantasi speglar skenbildernas tidsålder. Oförskräckt korskopplar poeten ord som sprakar av en passionerad energi och fångar evigt unga känslor i ett kvicksilverflyktigt nu.”Hösten 2023 publicerades Aya Kanbars andra diktsamling, ”Aftongata”, som av förlaget beskrevs som ”ett bokslut över tonåren”. Här är dödsängeln Azrael följeslagare genom en kärleksrelation som utspelar sig under neonbelysta natthimlar, i tomma biografer och på sunkiga kebabhak.

Tucker Carlson is blowing up the internet with a rather candid interview where he dropped bombshell after bombshell! Tucker was a featured guest on the Adam Carolla podcast, and in the wide-ranging interview, Tucker did NOT hold back! He shared his thoughts on Trump, Biden, the media's connection to the Deep State, and what he sees for the future of our nation!    Highlights:  “Here you have a man who is leading the Republican pack by more than any other candidate ever, there is no way on earth he is not going to win this nomination, and we know that because he's being legally persecuted by an establishment hell bent on taking him out! And Fox News is having debates!” "Now, what Tucker was alluding to there is what's more commonly known as Operation Mockingbird which infused intelligence operatives with the news media so as to push deep state propaganda! It was an integral part of the Cold War, in terms of psyops and information warfare, but today, it's morphed into what the French philosopher Jean Baudrillard referred to as simulacra, where the media deliberately fabricated reality in accordance with what benefits our ruling class, the billionaires and bureaucrats that together comprise the uniparty that runs not just Washington DC, but the whole of what's called the unipolar world!" “We have to always remember there are two politics operative here: there's domestic politics and international politics, and while the two parties often butt heads when it comes to domestic issues, at least they do for show, they're totally united in terms of how to run the world, in maintaining and perpetuating what's known as the liberal world order!”   Timestamps: [01:38] Tucker asked about Trump being the president [04:08] Every single Republican on the planet should be up in arms against the Democrats [10:22] Adam Carolla asks Tucker what he thinks Biden is ultimately going to do with Russia   Resources:  Learn how to protect your life savings from inflation and an irresponsible government, with Gold and Silver.
