Krugman's (as well as Shaviro's) academic work (before he turned into a news media propagandist), was one of my sources in my 10-page rhetorical analysis of the evolution of zombie myth in pop culture required for 102. World war Z had just came out, and I provided a response to how zombie myth has evolved from being primarily about a critique of the vampiric nature of capitalism and it's zombificating effect on the working class proletariat; as detailed on "Night of the Living Dead" with the mall scenes; Then it evolved into a critique of colonial (western) racism's "colonial gaze"; as detailed by Lauro et all using foucaltian dialectic analysis relating to how zombie myth evolved from "Night of the living Dead" into a dehumanizing means justifying the oppression/destruction of "others", as detailed in more recent "kill em all" zombie films prevelant throughout the '90s, and early '00s, only to be ressurected in the early '10s (Walking Dead); Then i went on to explain how in most recent films/series such as World War Z, the metaphor was more about an fear of globalization, with zombie apocalypse being a worldwide phenomenon that originates within third-world countries starved into a sort of insatiable un-life, which then radiates out to the western world, and how this development is metaphorically relatable to a underlying fear of globalization that is simultaneously exacerbating environmental issues in addition to threatening the western world with "contracting" the disease of an acute scarcity of resources, and environmental catastrophism caused by global transport and distribution of resources in an attempt to placate the zombie's insatiably bottomless hunger. 100%'d it and included it in my Junior writing portfolio. Even though it ran counter to leftist ideology as it pertains to racism, and marxist critique of capitalism, they gobbled it up and pushed me to attempt getting it published, regardless. I did some psychological trickery to ally myself with them, but I didn't want to publish it because I knew a lot of it was giving my sources more credit than they deserved since, for the most part, their critiques were outdated and no longer resembling contemporary societal ills. This was earlier in Obama's term, just as he began reigniting the flames of racism within this country, (in conjuction with help from the DSA and their participation in the development of BLM (remember the mid-west fairground incident, where large gangs of blacks waited around out front of the fairgrounds to beat, and hospitalize white men in front of their families without provocation?) https://www.businessinsider.com/race...ace-war-2011-8 ; and a few years before this societal fear of globalization and backlash against anti-white racism manifested in the election of Donald Trump. https://fox6now.com/2016/11/10/distu...nt-vote-trump/ and then we had the rust belt incidences where black people rioted and blocked roadways so that they could drag white people out of their cars beat them without provocation. Some Babe Ruth level intuiting the future shit. If the left doesn't back away from the "global communism without borders" and promoting unprovoked violence on people for "implicitly being white" theme, they're going to lose everything, including their credibility, while destroying the environment in the process. Anti-Fascism is Fascism. Anti-Racism is racism. Do you have any idea how bad exponentially increasing the carbon footprint by attempting to equalize and import the third world into the western world is? We should be aiming to reduce the extravagancy of the first world while promoting a minimalist lifestyle; not looking to maximize our market exposure by pushing globalized distribution of carbon-footprint-heavy western materialism upon the rest of the still developing, underdeveloped, and undeveloped 2nd and 3rd world. Overindulgence and gluttony is antithesis to living a "minimalist" lifestyle both economically and environmentally. And that is just one element why, despite knowing that some things are "unfair" i believe the left is entirely wrong in their recent approaches toward remedying societal ills. Regards, Throndor | |||

By the way, Juris Dictum's point two is why I said, i'm not opposed to raising the estate tax on inheritences over 1million, but that there should not even be an estate tax on values below that.
1 million, in today's economy is 1 single-family home in one of the competitive major cities throughout the country. It's enough to possibly get through all the red tape regulating the starting of a modest business with the ability to hire an employee or 3. Daffy and Bugs then decided to go full retard, and this is what i mean by entirely lacking prudence/temperence. | ||

Slavery didn't affect white people, so why did they even bother abolishing it? You know how immature and retarded you sound? | |||

Actually like Shaviro's views in a lot of ways. Panpsychism and gnostic inter-wovenalities share a similar thread.
