Enlightenment as Mass Deception (4/7)

1
As dominion increases, the need for juridico-ethical processes in handling consumers’ needs is dispensed with through manipulating mechanisms of disciplinary and social forms of control. There is no limit, in theory, to how far this procedure might be carried out in application, though relating directly to the concept itself of amusement; even when intellectualized. Basically, one wishes to be entertained as an escape for the system producing these distractions: The defense of society, presumably. Willful consent gets assumed by the absence of vociferous (enough) refusal in a dehumanizing superstructure to which all work is equivocated in relation—a psychologizing pre-enforcement against humanish empathies. It becomes a selfish, central ‘need’ taking its own pleasure as requisite good for one all. (No longer needed to think of a ‘no’.) “Even when the public does—exceptionally—rebel against the pleasure industry, all it can muster is that feeble resistance which that very industry has inculcated in it.”

There’s even a cost-benefit feasability line for domination humans by keeping you ignorant. “Ideology conceals itself in the calculation of probabilities.” Schizophrenia’s formlessness and paranoia’s consciousness of ‘all ’s 1′ are the bi-polar mechanisms of corporate media’s hegemony. When they inter-react over time is how propaganda becomes defensible as necessary to balance out the other side’s. No one can escape from himself any more. The only ‘perfect similarity’ is identity; anything short of that leaves room to quibble. Over-categorization make the individual a throw-away. Goal-oriented success makes for quickest, a route to glass-ceilings; there’s always something subjective about a basis for judging (never the capacity form making them). When all’s thrown up to chance, means one need not even bother to try: Trying to rectify non-rational behaviors by subjecting us to logical analysis? That is objection to a non-sequitur.

Enlightenment ideology that we’re all equal turns out to a complacency of acting for one’s benefit by aiding the greater cause of concern. ‘Representative’ individuals (this is social, not politics) are promulgated as selection by mass ‘consent’ manufacturing normative images of what the individual’s freedom (in reality, lack of enforceable discipline) must strive for; more often than not, two-point-four children, a pair of Escalades, attractively non-subversive spouse and home loan equity (this is democraticapitalist “equality”—to me an equivocation of ‘hell’): “Industry is interested in people merely as customers and employees, and has in fact reduced mankind as a whole and each of its elements to this all-embracing formula.” It’s a subject-position of those who control the manufacture of images-to-be-disseminated in their need to be omni-present while remaining invisible (for then you know not whom to sue). ‘You: Buy what, like everybody else told (two!)’ on the employee end; for customers, “your choice is the freest in the world of what to buy as work and vote; want to hear my person(ally) prepared, an anecdote?” In either case you remain objects.

Once these promises come to be assumed contextually, then you’re talking about an even paler ideology un-needed to justify any decision. That concordant ‘brotherhood of man’ crap is nothing but a scavenger hunt; check all the items on the fetishized list, you win the wife with the fakest tits and bigger office to earn them in. Words with reference solely to perception of ‘(f)act’ lead one to the solipsism of total irrelevance compartmentalized as though the few that understand your speak are the only “gifted” ones on world. The ideologies that there be only one, by means of their ” very vagueness, its almost scientific aversion from committing itself to anything which cannot be verified, acts as an instrument of domination.” That science describes reality does not follow all reality must be made scientific. The loudest who’s most heard isn’t necessarily correct. The culture industry takes a few pegs from fact, fills the rest in with what seems close enough—turns this all into a slick package with celebrity sheen to get everyone on the same form of page—locks your ass out if it’s easiest and no one disagreed, then tells the rest the objections you secretly promote will be disproved beyond doubtable by the not-quite-as-yet-though-nonetheless-as-daily-progressing ‘investigation’ in progress being accomplished by the pocket expert it paid: These are the terrorists who go around slandering, spying-on to punish, raping, locking up—after the former failure and latter succeeds—killing innocent people so they can take their job or stuff, keep you from talking about Secret Shit they told you when drunk, and keep geting paid to sell doing drugs. I know, I have watched them do this for a very long time; they usually have law degrees &/or work to enforce ‘meant’.

Stasis in darkness and the substanceless groups ought not be sufficient condition for defending the continuance of social structures as constituted; for these depend on the people they’re based to. What the culture industry boils down to, at heart, is only reduplicative stereotype. That it takes its cues from actual life processes of business and communicating makes its manipulations all the more difficult to distinguish. “This serves to confirm the immutability of circumstances.” If subjectivity is your sole grounds for determining, then Adolf Hitler was the freest man in all the world. Nature, when co-opted as a means for reflecting social concerns, is not natural in the least; but then corporate culture even can start to seem normative after enough Friday! Crazy Hat or Shirt days. Nature and technology’s bureaucrats both oppose all opposition (guess which one wins out in end?), but nothing is more psychotic than the belief that your life’s simultaneity as shared by all, should be better than too and that one couldn’t have been wrong; ‘that thing being not right will do wrong until I myself attain enough power to force it into a being be’st’ is the root of all Satan in every level at all forms: Unless it’s a concept of subject yourself.
