Walter Benjamin Explains How Fascism Uses Mass Media to Turn Politics Into Spectacle (1935) | Open Culture

Fascism attempts to organize the newly created proletarian masses without affecting the property structure which the masses strive to eliminate. Fascism sees its salvation in giving these masses not their right, but instead a chance to express themselves. The masses have a right to change property relations; Fascism seeks to give them an expression while preserving property. The logical result of Fascism is the introduction of aesthetics into political life.

A Turkey Under the Bridge

The Twisting Tail

The hardest thing in life to learn is which bridge to cross and which to burn.

David Russell

Starting Point: Bridge


Six-word story: time will build

The divide was accepting of space.


“Build a bridge, get over it!”
A time-consuming endeavour
I could think of a better.
Bomb the river, scorch the earth
Leave nothing but a crater

The moment you build a bridge
You have to start worrying
about what’s under the bridge
Trolls, or maybe even
Stoned Californian rockers


Clickbait:
Red Hot Chili Peppers to re-release
Under the Bridge
For the soundtrack of the new ‘Trolls‘ film.


Not a joke: RHCP released their 12th studio album, 'Unlimited Love,' on April 1st, 2022.


Who said
Grandparents
Or those
reaching their golden years
Aren’t productive
Some are
Still releasing albums


It’s all a matter of wits
When you no longer have them
It’s time to call it quits

Starbucks says these L.A. stores are too unsafe to operate – Los Angeles Times

None of the L.A. stores that will close had formed unions, but two of the Seattle stores set to close had voted to unionize and one of the Portland, Ore., locations had petitioned to hold a union vote, according to a statement from Starbucks Workers United.

“Every decision Starbucks makes must be viewed through the lens of the company’s unprecedented and virulent union-busting campaign,” the organization said in a statement. “It is simply not credible for the company to argue that this was not a response to the growing union movement spreading across the country.”

The company has waged contentious battles over unionizing at its stores and has been accused multiple times of illegally firing union organizers during a recent wave of union campaigns across the country. Starbucks officials, though, have said the recent closures are not related to unionization efforts, calling the move “part of our business operations.”
