Posted November 13, 2020 I think this article hits the nail in the head perfectly: Quote “It’s not about the vote-counting,” said Rory Cooper, a Republican strategist and a former adviser to Eric Cantor when he was the House Majority Leader. “His entire persona is built on the idea of winning despite his decades of not winning. He’s constantly creating a legend, frankly, about himself rather than a truthful narrative, so I’m not surprised that he’s going to use this to convince his supporters that the election was unfair and that he remains the leader of the Republican opposition.” He added: “He’s going to have to take care of financial issues once he’s out of office, and he’s going to make a lot of money. He’s going to make a lot of money on books. He’s going to make a lot of money on speeches. He’s going to be able to hold rallies and charge for them. Putting everything from the Southern District of New York aside, and what could happen to him in Manhattan, just on the sheer financial side of it, the martyring of Trump—martyring himself—is good for business.” More here: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/11/13/trumps-crazy-and-confoundingly-successful-conspiracy-theory-436404 The simulacrum is never that which conceals the truth—it is the truth which conceals that there is none.

I believe there is an element to the internet where you are rewarded for acting like a fool and a edgy dickhead. I notice these forces in me as well when playing games and doing stuff online. Nothing wrong with the impulse itself if engaged with consciously but it’s easy money if you know how to capitalize on it and find an audience willing to give donations depending on how far you push it and how controversial you can be. Basically this explains Alex Jones. Before political polarization he was basically about aliens and reptilians and a harmless meme.

Posted November 15, 2020 (edited) @Thewritersunion lmao too funny. The MAGA tsunami at it again! One thing is definitely true. Business wise this is a great opportunity. You could make tons of money very bigly and queeckly by selling large number of red colored hats. Trumpists won't even bother to read what's written on those hats. They will simply buy because it's red. America 10 years later - Legend has it that Trump is still holding maga rallies.

Posted November 15, 2020 On 13/11/2020 at 2:08 PM, Leo Gura said: Yes, of course. No he wouldn't. People have made up their minds about Trump long before covid. Like I told you guys a long time ago, people do not vote on policy, they vote their Spiral stage. It doesn't matter what the policies are. My prediction of Trump's loss was based purely on Spiral stages. He was clearly too low-consciousness for the majority of American's to approve of. His cult base love him, but the other 60-70% of Americans can clearly see that Trump is a low-consciousness monster. And that is why he lost. Trump loyalists don't understand it because they live in reality bubble of their own creation and they don't see outside that bubble. The only reason Trump won in 2016 is because people did not know what a monster Trump was. They assumed he was just a successful businessman (Orange), but then they saw that he was more Red than Orange. Trump won in 2016 because the mainstream media did a terrible job in covering Trump's monstrosities and educating the public about what a Trump admin would look like. People were allowed to believe the myth that Trump would be this great business leader, which was a joke to begin with because he was always failed at business. But now everyone's seen that Trump is totally incompetent. So Trump can't run the same con again. He snuck in under the radar in 2016. That was his biggest advantaged which has now evaporated. But Trump actually got more votes in 2020 than 2016? Biden only just won by about 90,000 votes in a few key states. I seriously doubt without a once in a century pandemic and a terrible response to it, Biden would have been able to maintain such a small victory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
