I'm excited to watch the JBP-Žižek thing. I want to be angry at myself for that but I'm just not. I want the insipid resolution of a boxing match.

oh god, I can't even imagine deriving any pleasure from it at all. On the one hand a buffoon in a tweed jacket whose primary trick is relying on the fact that he knows how to look like a smart person, on the other an apologist for Stalin, who murdered many of my relatives.

IDK much abt the latter's apologia. But, I think both are clowns and I would like something in political-cultural space to have a resolution at this point. Even if my momentary, fight-night side loses, at least something happens instead of just constant collision-less collisions.

Yes, also a resolution! A realized outcome. Toss them both in the Colosseum -- fuck it!

My part of this whole thread is only semi-serious. But, I've been trying to figure out why everything is so disorienting and it's just...there is too much information and too many events for us to process at the timescales they're presented.

Inherent in that comment (to me) is the assumption that things will make sense or are condenseable or if we could just parse history better, I don't know if I agree that the chaos is something you can grasp

Seems like a tangent from if they are attempting the impossible task or are looking to exploit it
