This is bigger than stopping ICE/ CBP or passing a law. It's about how both parties have allowed law enforcement to run the country, determine every policy, spend profligately, and lobby endlessly all on the taxpayer's dime.

The last 4-8 hours of big money content in the finale is a big hit with me; the game is pointless-action heavy in the way that has been bioware‘s main problem since me2, and this weighs heavier at hour 55 than 15; inquisition is the worst one

So idk if it is fascist per se, but the og Fortnite, at least, is imo deeply misanthropic and cruel

This is also kind of the core operation of neoliberal labor markets…the winner take all dynamic is not unique to Fortnite obviously, but the symbiotic relationship with the suburban cultural fantasy is.

Fortnite feeds and reflects back into the core American fantasy of endless suburban adolescence, which it codes as a ruthless winner take all. A mania for discrete, immutable status evaluations, handed down by an absent system

what the cartoon aesthetic allows is for Fortnite to function as a social mirror to the adolescent player base. In other words, it codes the digital social space as an extension or inner reality of the social school space, which is to say, of the status competition that governs them both.

(we also *have* to talk about fast 5…) but anyway this is all to say the thing about Fortnite is you play it in middle school, and in middle school cartoons are more real than guns and depressed Soviet rurality. Fortnite is not more innocent because it is a cartoon

As always tho when *Operator Aesthetics* discourse is going around it feels a bit thin. I want a theory that begins by doing a lot more to coordinate the structural role special ops play in deployment of state power w/ the public understanding of it, before MW 2007

Truly infuriating lack of perspective on your part here

The moderate position here is that no current ICE agent should ever be allowed to work for the government again
