Denial abounds. They live in alternate reality, fiction, not authentic science reality.

“End Times Fascism”: Naomi Klein on How Trump, Musk, Far Right “Don’t Believe in the Future”
May 5, 2025
An alliance between the far right and Silicon Valley oligarchs has given rise to a form of “end times fascism,” says journalist Naomi Klein, who details in a recent essay co-authored with Astra Taylor how many wealthy elites are preparing for the end of the world even as they contribute to growing inequality, political instability and the climate crisis. Klein says that while billionaires dream of escaping to bunkered enclaves or even to space, President Donald Trump and other right-wing leaders are turning their countries into militarized fortress states to keep out immigrants from abroad and ramp up authoritarian control domestically.
“There’s always an apocalyptic quality to fascism, but fascism of the 1930s and ’40s had a horizon” for a utopian future, says Klein. Today, by contrast, “we’re up against people who are actively betting against the future — not just actively betting against it, but fueling the fires that are burning this world.”

This isn’t new, what Cambridge Analtyica and Putin / Russia / Kremlin tapped into in late 2012 and early 2013 is monomyth based alternate-reality… except avoiding compassion in love. What they have tapped into is Mecca Quran heaven is after death, burn the Earth now terrorism and mass dehumanization clergy patterns… in 5000 new creative digital meme forms. “Британские учёные из Cambridge Analytica предложили сделать из 5 тысяч существующих человеческих психотипов - “идеальный образ” возможного сторонника Трампа.

Russia-watcher Catherine Fitzpatrick, who documents Kremlin disinformation for InterpreterMag . com, says just as Moscow uses vague Internet laws to encourage self-censorship, trolls inhibit informed debate by using crude dialogue to change “the climate of discussion.” … “If you show up at The Washington Post or New Republic sites, where there’s an article that’s critical of Russia, and you see that there are 200 comments that sound like they were written by 12-year-olds, then you just don’t bother to comment,” she says. “You don’t participate. It’s a way of just driving discussion away completely,” she adds. “Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work.”

“For in the end, he was trying to tell us what afflicted the people in ‘Brave New World’ was not that they were laughing instead of thinking, but that they did not know what they were laughing about and why they had stopped thinking.” ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business, 1985. !BackTo1985@lemm.ee… are you a bot?

No, my name is clearly presented on my profile, Stephen Alfred Gutknecht. I live in the United States of America.
What’s your name?
dandelion@ lemmy.blahaj.zone : … are you a bot?
Do you make comments like this to “change the climate of discussion” compulsively when Russia and Cambridge Analytica are invoked on social machines? Or are you a “Fake AI Detector Believer / Snake Oil customer” that I document over on Lemmy community: !FakeDetectors@lemm.ee ?

“We are at the point where we have dumb people on Facebook taking everything at face value and not realising if a picture is AI or not, and dumb people on Reddit who refuse to believe that anything ever happens and believe that every picture on the internet is now AI” - May 5, 2025 - https://lemm.ee/post/63136571I read your profile, it doesn’t prove anything. Having a name doesn’t make you a human, and it’s the internet, I don’t give out my name 😆
I’m neither trying to change the climate of discussion, nor a “fake detector” as you say … I’m just not sure how to interpret your response to my comment about not confusing Naomi Klein with Naomi Wolf - it seems unrelated, and also very quick for the length of the comment, both of which make me think the response was automatically generated.

You self-dehumanize yourself while Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Bill Gates and such give out their real name on the Internet, because you cower at billionaires?

You can’t tell reality from anti-reality, which is the topic of this posting. You suffer from extreme “Context Blindness”.
it seems unrelated,
The community name is “Hybrid War Lost”, that’s a context issue.
NATO / USA lost the Hybrid War that was launched in March 2013 against the World Wide Web.
-
Kremlin brags that only 1% of the manipulation Hybrid War content has been discovered and removed. NATO has entirely been unable to defend, 99% flies under the defense radar of Five Eyes (FVEY).
-
Russian military was able to completely get past USA FBI, CIA, NSA, and whatever else the Pentagon has. Competely unable to defend the population against Russian Hybrid Warfare. “For years, AIVD had access to the infamous Russian hacker group Cozy Bear. That’s what de Volkskrant and Nieuwsuur have uncovered in their investigation.” “the Dutch intelligence agency AIVD penetrated the computer network of a university adjacent to Red Square back in 2014, only to later realize they had tapped into APT29, aka Cozy Bear, one of the Russian government-affiliated organizations that penetrated the DNC and targeted other US government departments”. “It was Dutch intelligence operatives that hacked into some of Russia’s own institutions – including their closed-circuit television cameras.”
-
Putin and Surkov’s “Operation Matthew 4:19” global manipulation of everyday people included turning social media consumers into Russian assets of the Hybrid Warfare who deliberately spread measles and COVID-19 virus during the pandemic. Johns Hopkins University and George Washington University validated evidence going back to year 2014.
-
Absolutely no defense has been found against this Hybrid Warfare since it was unleashed in March 2013. “At the NATO summit in Wales last week, General Philip Breedlove, the military alliance’s top commander, made a bold declaration. Russia, he said, is waging “the most amazing information warfare blitzkrieg we have ever seen in the history of information warfare.” It was something of an underestimation. The new Russia doesn’t just deal in the petty disinformation, forgeries, lies, leaks, and cyber-sabotage usually associated with information warfare. It reinvents reality, creating mass hallucinations”

Why? I’m not the one who can’t tell human people from robots and machines who thinks dehumanization is something to smile at. You are the one with context blindness, you should seek treatment. I recommend this book for you:

Emphasis on title saying “Understanding Media Ecology” - which means Lemmy, Reddit, Smartphones, Internet, Fox News HDTV, Bluesky, Mastodon, electric media.

“While we can all accept that bullying and abuse betray a lack or loss of respect for other human beings, there is a deeper issue: the devaluing of human life; and that in turn indicates a lack or loss of respect for the Giver of human life and dignity, God Himself. The message a bully sends is a mockery of God’s handiwork, a lie that slanders God’s nature and negates His love for us.” ― Frank E. Peretti, The Wounded Spirit
