"Trump's an Authoritarian!", screamed the Post-Modern Totalitarian. You must Enjoy on MY terms, or else feel "guilty"
Slavoj Žižek uses the contrast between the traditional authoritative father and the postmodern permissive father to illustrate how modern power and ideology control us not through open force, but through hidden psychological demands. [1, 2, 3]The Traditional Authoritarian Father
- The Command: He issues a direct, external order with no pretense about your feelings (e.g., "I don't care how you feel, you must go visit your grandmother").
- The Dynamic: It is an explicit external rule.
- The Space for Rebellion: Because the authority is clear, outward, and external, you can easily disobey, talk back, or rebel behind his back. Your inner life remains your own. [1, 2, 3]
The Postmodern Permissive ("Obscene"/ Totalitarian) Father
- The Command: He masks his demand as a gentle suggestion or free choice (e.g., "You know how much your grandmother loves you, but you should only visit her if you really want to").
- The Dynamic: It is an insidious psychological trap. He does not just order you to go; he commands you to want to go out of your own free will.
- The Loss of Inner Freedom: This creates what psychoanalysis calls an obscene superego injunction. If you refuse, you cannot just blame a tyrant; you have to feel guilty for being ungrateful or lacking genuine desire. There is nowhere left to rebel because the system has captured your internal motivations.
Cancel Culture Re-Ascendant?
In the above video, James Lindsay assumes that all regimes are built upon Positive Liberty. They are NOT. The genius of the American System is that it is built upon Negative Liberty (limited government). Americans can still, theoreticaly at least, walk away from Olemos w/o being sent to the gulag.

That's not a father.
That is how mothers... do it. Controlling fathers with it. Conditioning chikdren with it.
Yaaaaawn.
PS You... still dunno it???
Zzz...
Qtard hates women. It's all their fault. Well, that's no surprise.
)))))))))
Yeah.
And anthropology that is science that need to be banned... in your nazi society?
Yawn.
What's more? Ginecology too??? )))))
Because that is FORBIDEN... to know anything about women.))))))
That's your excuse? You were forbidden from knowing anything about women by your parents?
)))))))))))))
"Excuse"??? To "hates women"??? ))))
Continue-continue your cretinic babbling. )))))))
Cretinic words you producing is so stoooopid... that that is just fascinatung! )))))
//You were forbidden from knowing anything about women by your parents?
And this idea... something autobiographical? %^P
)))))
Anymouse, of the so called foreigner variety, is the babbling idiot in the room. Distract, redirect, and babble. Maybe a babbling bot?
Who knows... It's the internet, anything is possible. AI will make it much worse.
;p
Qtard: And this idea... something autobiographical?
For you? It could be.
btw, I never suggested banning anthropology or gynecology. They don't even have anything to do with your obvious hatred for women (a hate you share with Minus).
Minus: ;p [link to a clip from the movie "Psycho"].

Also... "Psychological and social science research generally shows a small, consistent statistical difference in measured prejudice, with studies finding that men score slightly higher on measures of racial and social prejudice than women". (via Gemini)
Conservative men are misogynists. Minus has been very clear in posts and comments on his blog in regards to how he feels about women. And Qtard (above) agreed. In their views we need to (as a society) be blaming women more and men less. That's in regards to the things men do. Like sexual assault and rape (for example). Minus has commented often about how sexual harassment is really just a "failed pass" and that rape is a consensual sexual encounter when women don't immediately go to the police (because "silence is consent").
He used to go by "Q" due to seeing himself as incredibly smart.
Via Gemini...
In the world of physics, mathematics, and high-IQ subcultures, "Q" is a heavily loaded letter that people with an intellectual ego love to use.
If he boasts about physics grades and being "smart," he is almost certainly drawing from these specific scientific and high-intellect concepts:
• Quantum Mechanics (Q): In physics, "Q" often represents Quantum, as in quantum mechanics or quantum computing. For a physics student, it carries a sense of advanced, complex science that the average person doesn't understand.
• The "Q-Factor" (Quality Factor): In physics and engineering, the Q-factor is a dimensionless parameter that describes how underdamped an oscillator or resonator is. Essentially, a higher Q means a lower rate of energy loss. People in STEM sometimes use it metaphorically to mean high quality or efficiency.
• The High-IQ "Quotient": As mentioned, it represents the "Q" in IQ. In hyper-specific online high-IQ societies (like the Prometheus Society or Mega Society), users frequently use "Q" as a shorthand username to signal their score or membership.
The Irony of His Interaction With You.
There is a funny irony here. Someone who boasts about being a brilliant physicist should logically know that making a definitive conclusion based on a single data point is terrible science.
By assuming you were a "trekkie" just because you asked a question, he fell into a classic cognitive trap—assuming his own lack of pop-culture knowledge meant your question was incredibly obscure. Truly smart people are usually comfortable saying, "I don't know that reference, why do you ask?" rather than guessing wildly to protect their ego.🛑
Qtard: "I studied Physics in school. With excellent grades. And... I'm smart". 5/25/2024.
