My author copy of the home of my recent chapter on far-right uses of pseudoarchaeology arrived today 🙌 Timely, given that a certain Netflix series with a season premiere date right around the corner makes an unfortunate appearance in here 👀

OK, and also, if ChatGPT could ACTUALLY do your job, I might agree. The things is, it can't, and the only people who think it can, are people who don't understand what you do and wouldn't be able to do it themselves if you put a gun to their heads and also think they know everything.
So, Altman.

Fortunately, history does not work as Hegseth seems to believe. It is never "settled" and the government cannot (at least for now!) impose its interpretation of events on the rest of us--especially an interpretation so at odds with the historical record. 6/

An assassin writes Bella Ciao in the same breath as a Notices Your Bulge meme on his bullets. One of the government responses is a practicing Hindu asserting that the fundamentalist Christian victim will join him in a Norse pagan afterlife. Welcome to the epistemic collapse.

This ep was part of a group of episodes where we dove into the background and origin story of a person or people who've had an outsized impact on shaping the way many people worldwide see themselves and their place in the world.
Here's an ep from the Wetwired classics archive.
This is the story of Esther Hicks, the woman behind the Law of Attraction and inspiration for the movie The Secret. Famous for channelling 100 spirits, running seminars, and there was even a themed cruise.

We get into the QAnon prophecy possibly fulfilled by Trump federalizing the Metro police in D.C. It gets really wild, really fast and ends up reaching to the City of London and Vatican City.
For a Sov Cit or a QAnon follower, Trump federalizing law enforcement in D.C. is nothing short of a killing blow struck at the Deep State.
It's pretty nuts.
It's a free ep!

In recent weeks, we've seen a wave of AI-generated images of white, blonde families presented by neo-fascist online accounts as models of a desirable future. As disgusting as this is, it seems no coincidence that AI is being used for reactionary propaganda

The past has always been a popular subject in far-right worldviews, and they've recognized that pseudohistory (incl. pseudoarchaeology) can be powerful a door-opener and have weaponized that. Hardy Lloyd has said similar to Cooper, in using pseudohist. claims to initiate ppl without scaring them.

Trump never had to campaign on the Epstein files but he can't help himself. He could have just let it go like he did when he promised to lock up Hillary. Everyone forgot about that. But he leaned into the Epstein files and now he can't shake it off.
New ep! As if the mass death flood tragedy in Texas isn’t enough, the crank caucus is pushing weather conspiracy. Grok transformed itself into a racist, abusive sex pest. And MAGA is falling out after Trump tells everyone to shut up about Epstein.
