Usually pretty cringe
But there’s some based moments every now and then

Our time is a cascade of cringe with specks of based glimmering every now and then, lucky if you catch a glimpse or air of one

>long united, the empire must divide

We're witnessing an age of decentralization. Nation states no longer adequately serve their purpose, neither do big media outlets and entertainers. The election of Trump has ruined an entire generation of comedians and artists. Think about how many times you have heard jokes about his orange skin and tiny hands. "oh so brave" they'd congratulate each other, as if they weren't regurgitating the same stale material. Not just comedians, media outlets themselves have decided to "take a stance". Remember Rachel Maddow? Remember CNN and Fox? The issue was that they learned that they were no longer the purveyors of mainstream opinion. They revealed themselves as practicing kayfabe, just like the wrestling show host they oh so despise, all the while having to pretend that ratings don't matter.

Where does this come from? Why, the innate human drive for individuality of course. Nationalists in the past few years have spoken to a section of the population that felt entirely un-personed by the "liberal" global hegemony. They have regained an identy with the logic that it is better to be seen as evil, than to not be seen at all. We are entering an age of do-it-yourself. Whether the next hilarious meme or 3D-printed guns, anyone with enough willpower can become national news in a few hours. The DIY era lacks any sort of proper curation, for who are (you) bastards to tell me what I can do and watch and think?

The king is dead, his corpse lies naked in the streets, and there's a million counterfeit crowns in circulation that are almost indistinguishable from the real thing. The only reason corona bears its name is because God is a jester.

Good. Kings are an artificial product of human fear. Serve yourself, serve the world, but don't serve some jackoff that's deified just because humans are afraid of not deifying someone

We bear witness to the last moments of privacy, independence and freedom, the continuous erosion of which has left us but a tiny speck of dust to hide behind while the ever present Eye watches. The artificial needs of imposed humanity force us to leave behind our organic destiny to fullfill that of the machine whose purpose is to be driven forever at the expense of those who service it. Behind our wealth of information lies a vast intellectual void that grows ever wider and swallows any thoroughgoing soul. The virus is but the final blow to severe us from all else for eternity
