I do not think some people (anti-realists and nihilists) understand the concept of moralizing. Moralizing is cynically wielding moral terms and their associated emotional resonances applied to non-moral issues. It’s not texting “Genocide is morally wrong 💅”. That’s just true.
Where you fall on the division between those who lament the totalizing assimilation of cultural production to commodity consumption and those who cynically luxuriate in it will likely align with your reaction to this claim:
Ever wondered why the Frankfurt School gets both fascists and Marxists so riled up? Curious about @MidwesternMarx’s wild claims about their ties to the CIA? You’re in luck: Moral Minority podcast will be releasing a 3-part series on Dialectic of Enlightenment starting this week!
“Amusement always means putting things out of mind, forgetting suffering, even when it is on display. At its root is powerlessness. It is indeed escape, but not, as it claims, escape from bad reality but from the last thought of resisting that reality”(116).
Anyone that complains that attacks on Taylor Swift are elitist and misogynistic should be required to name 5 female composers on the spot and if not your opinion is automatically invalidated
Some of you will see a Hollywood blockbuster and immediately declaim, sans hyperbole or a drop of ironic self-reflection, that it is a transformative piece of art that belongs in the pantheon of cinematic classics. Stop doing this. Develop taste.
Imagine having such bad taste that you cannot even pull off a cliched synecdoche of the writing life. You make grandiloquence hackneyed and vacant.

What does the aesthetic apologetics of “it’s not for you” amount to? It denies the overriding value of universalizability of art and cordons off certain aesthetic experiences or appreciation thereof as epistemologically inaccessible to certain individuals or groups.
The most offensive aspect of Swift’s pop ubiquity is not only the annoyance of knowing her homogenous earworms, but that she has produced nothing of lasting aesthetic value; subtract her entire discography from existence and the net value of the world remains the same.

Lotta dumb ideologies in the world, but the dumbest has to be Christian Zionism. "Criticism of Israel is antisemitism! That's bad!" You're pro-Israel? "Yes, when the Israel ethnically cleanses Judea and Samaria, Christ will return to force all these wicked Jews to convert."

@SatireRedacted Right-wing nietzscheans are pretty uninspiring tbh. Can't bear to listen to their posturing. It's like they're trying so hard to look cool, strong and domineering, but they just end up coming across like spiteful, ressentiment fueled weirdos.
Unclear if this is a naive thought or not, but as dismayed as I am that academics, who style themselves as radical or critical, do not partake in actually existing possibilities, I often believe there must be something there beneath the cynical careerism waiting to be moved.

I saw a tweet days ago from an apparently leftist account criticizing the use of the word "genocide" by people who are against what's happening in Gaza and I can't stop thinking about it
Occupy was the first mass student protest movement to take place during the modern telecoms and social media era. it is understandable then that major unforced errors were made especially viz media and optics. very glad that the new gen has learned some lessons along these lines
I keep on thinking about that line in that Atlantic hit piece on the protests where the writer complained about how the protesters had a designated spokesperson and were able to keep random participants from talking to reporters. Very very promising.
People give a lot of shit to philosophers, for good reason, but a Chair of a philosophy department—an expert in feminism and psychoanalysis and critical theory—throwing herself on the gears and getting arrested for it is undeniably the good parts of philosophy.

@SatireRedacted Seeing people moralize all the time made me into a moral anti-realist. Yes, normative moralities exist, but most of the time they are rationalizations and pretentions rather than sound principles and reasons.
Morality, at its core, is a real and objective set of necessary truths. It’s a category mistake to suppose that morality might be an adaptation: that’s like saying logic and math might be adaptations; it confuses the set of facts with the mental faculty that perceives the facts.
If God does not exist, then I think Michael Ruse is right that morality is just a biological adaptation with survival benefit and "any deeper meaning is illusory." In that case, evil hasn't been explained; it's been explained away. There's still suffering, of course — but it…
