    On Spencer Pratt and Christopher Rufo v. Curtis Yarvin

    On the timeline this week, I was DESTROYED Spencer Pratt and EVISCERATED by Christopher Rufo. This implicates by response (above) to Spencer Pratt’s recent 9 minute video describing what happened in his election loss (below): Several people have asked me to address this question, and what I meant by my comments, so I expand in the video above. My position is basically that Spencer is being turned into the character from the Daniel Kaluuya character in the all-time great Black Mirror episode Fifteen Million Merits. He’s a slave who competes in a American Idol type competition, but it so fed up with him oppression that he threatens to slit his throat on stage. His protest is turned into its own media property, in which the regime capitalizes on his simulated and controlled voicing of grievances. This is a public episode.

    Hello all. * I wrote a piece for Compact magazine about Citizen Vigilante and the rise of the Right Wing exploitation film. Includes list of these films, many of which produced by Dallas Sonnier.

(2020), Sound of Freedom (2023), Nefarious (2023), and Muzzle (2023). Run. Hide. Fight. Infidels, a sequel to Run. Hide. Fight. coming this fall, will almost certainly make the list.* We had Dallas Sonnier himself on the MAMA podcast (see above) for an interview about his new film Run.Hide.Fight: Infidels.Powerful trailer:Many talk about RW art not being funded, but Dallas Sonnier is proof that it does, if it’s good enough.Please subscribe to MAMA on Substack for podcasts, and everywhere else for the viral mega articles.

    Whole-of-Society: The Vast Cybernetic Enclosure

His new book The Information State covers the extensive details of this sprawling leviathan, and how it attempts to control thought via a very Obama-coded approach called “Whole-of-Society”: basically managing humans like insects.Jacob recently had a review of his book taken down for extremely dubious reasons, largely involving a “disinformation expert” Renee DiResta who herself is involved in disinformation campaigns like The Birmingham Project (must read).

    How RBG Destroyed VMI

    Found my new favorite guy. Caldwell-esque sex discrimination expert Scott Yenor joins me to discuss an absolutely incontrovertible truth: Ruth Bader Ginsburg destroyed Virginia Military Institute in United States v. Virginia (1996). Not only that, the entire pretense of the decision was that allowing women to be admitted wouldn’t effect the culture at all. Very similar to Sandra Day O’Connor’s famous reasoning that the purpose of making affirmative action constitutional was that it surely wouldn’t be needed to rectify racial achievement in 25 years…which similarly turned out to be the opposite of true. Check out Yenor’s incredible report on VMI here.And see side-by-side the original “Code of a Gentleman” from VMI, next to the utterly hollowed out, HR-ified, bombed out and depleted “Code of a Cadet” after the institution had been systematically destroyed by RBG-style liberalism.
