Technocracy

[]
I've heard it said that the counterculture of the 1960s was a war on technocracy. My thinking is that the movement never made much headway in dismantling the technocracy and instead became integrated into it. It's the typical thing of rebellion getting absorbed into the mainstream culture. The technocracy merely changed from a mostly conservative one to a mostly liberal one.

This reminds me of something interesting I read on Foucalt here:
https://www.compactmag.com/article/the-bleak-genius-of-michel-foucault/

"Tuesday marks the 40th anniversary of the death of Michel Foucault. Four decades since complications from AIDS brought his career to a premature end, the French philosopher—a role he both embraced and pushed away—continues to top rankings of the most-cited scholars in the humanities. This is to the chagrin of conservative critics of higher education, for whom his influence is synonymous with the perversions, figurative as well as literal, of the academy and of modern life. His vast authority is equally lamented by many orthodox Marxists, who hold him responsible for the shift away from class as the central fact of social organization and the proper locus of radical activism—and toward boutique “identitarian” causes and the emancipation of the self from normative structures of all kinds.

To even mention Foucault these days is to get tangled in these crisscrossing lines of critique. Not only that, but it is increasingly difficult to assess his body of work on its own terms, independent of the institutional structures that bear the imprint of his ideas, albeit in bowdlerized form. From third-rate college courses in which students who can barely read a novel are taught to “problematize” and “interrogate” this or that classic; to dormitory sexual-safety workshops that reject “normativities” and welcome subaltern “sexualities” (always with the silly pluralizations); to sundry h.r. trainings and corporate Pride messages that present even more rudimentary versions of the same rhetoric and conceptual framework—our institutional landscape can often look like it was designed by the Frenchman.

But if so, then it is all the more reason to consider these discourses in the light of Foucault’s own insights into the workings of discursive power. There, in his writings and lectures, we find a philosopher of unquestionable genius. Michel Foucault was perhaps the closest figure the 20th century offered to the European ideal of the Thinker Who Had Read Everything. He philosophized with a healthy and daring disregard for disciplinary boundaries, drawing freely—and commandingly—from history, theology, classics, literature, jurisprudence, political economy, anthropology, medicine, and psychiatry, among other branches of study.

Unlike most of his academic imitators and putative heirs, moreover, Foucault was capable of crafting sparkling, highly ironic prose (“my aim is to examine the case of a society … which speaks verbosely of its own silence”). Roger Scruton, of all people, was a fan of his style. And it is right and just that Foucault should be posthumously crowned the citation king of the humanities: After all, he inaugurated a systematic and highly original science of modern power, one that was bound to catalyze new fields of inquiry, even if many of those who took them up weren’t up to the task. This new science benefited greatly from Foucault’s refusal to be confined to philosophical abstraction, from his limitless curiosity about power at the most concrete and granular levels.

His, however, was a bleak genius. The normative and metaphysical void at the heart of his science of power created the conditions for the bastardization of his thought. The result is that today, some of the most powerful institutions in our society deploy his concepts and vernacular to perpetuate themselves in a manner that is downright, well, Foucauldian. Or put another way, Foucault’s ingenious methods for analyzing power have now emerged as but one more strategy for the maintenance and expansion of existing institutional power. This, even as these institutions themselves remain susceptible to his critique of what he called the “devious and supple mechanisms of power.”

There wasn't a single counterculture in the 60s. There were lots of different movements with different aims and ideas with most being contradictory. But yeah, everything else you said is true. Stuff that's at the fringe slowly gets colonized by the mainstream. Its what makes the system so insidious is its capable of taking its most fanatic enemies (Che Guevara) and commercializing and neutralizing them (Che shirts) or turning them into entertainment (Saddam memes from like 20 years ago).

If you were to show Focuault today how his ideas have been institutionalized, he'd probably say he doesn't really have the right to tell people not to use his work that way and it wouldn't even matter if he did. He took the death of the author seriously. He saw his books and ideas as tools that anyone should be free to use for their own purposes instead of him imposing or dictating a bunch of ideas or having to refer back to what he said on any given issue the way communists do with Marx. Foucault was a Nieztschean. He didn't want to be an anchor holding us back but for people to go ahead and create their own movements and ideas with his work. Pretty much the opposite of the bleak nihilism morons accuse him of.

9/11 was a dynamic event in world history and so was the coming of Futaba Channel. Sadly one outshadowed the other. What is the significance of 9/11? It plunged the world into endless war which has lasted until today. In fact, war will never end. Metal Gear Solid 4 has become our reality. Endless war everywhere all the time. A global war economy where peace is the real enemy. Truth died in the social media hyperreality. Nihilistic bots populate the earth. Original content has also died and fun is non-existent, aside from simulated fun of course *wink* What an exciting time to be alive ヽ(´∇`)ノ Since Heyuri is a simulation of Futaba, I call upon Kaguya to stage a 9/11 reaction thread so we can pretend we're reacting to it live and play our role as reenactors on this imageboard equivalent of Disneyland.

I don't know about futaba, but 2channel has a bunch of threads on it.

I'm 19 years old and I just ejaculated for the first time

[]
I tried masturbating a couple of times but never managed to have an orgasm, so I always assumed I was sexually impotent. Today, however, I hid myself in one of the bathroom stalls of the shopping mall and waited there to hear and sniff other men shitting. One moment the guy next to me let out a big wet fart and I started masturbating and eventually ejaculated. A lot of liquid game gushing out and I nearly dirtied myself whole.
I am a bit disturbed. Does that mean I am gay? Of course not, because the only reason I chose the men's bathroom is because I don't have the balls to do this in the ladies' one, and since I can't see their faces it's easier for me to just ignore this aspect altogether. But even then, why couldn't I masturbate with hetero pornography?

I don't really consider it seriously. I have this belief that my body isn't really mine and its a gift from god belonging to this world and to destroy it in such a way would be a horrible betrayal to the body.
Also I hope things work out for the sad anons in the thread.

Used to be on the reg,standing at train tracks was so hard.not to jump! But there's a voice almost as loud that tells me it's selfish and cowardly, and of course, dontcha just wanna see where this timeline goes, even if it's only downhill from here?

However, I do not want to return to wearing diapers. The older I get the more open I am to dangerous risk taking behaviour (´・ω・`) because, life is a pretty big adventure if you chase after the right thrills and pains that come with

The breasts of the next generation will be even bigger stillヽ(´∇`)ノ

yes, because today's kids get a lot of unnecessary estrogen hormones from plants (soy, yam, etc.) and soy-fed animal's meat (such as chicken and cows). remember that estrogen is the female version of testosteron and is basically a steroid hormone, acting like a growth hormone inside human. too much of it causes too much growth.

that, and like >>2363 and >>2365 said, human estrogen is synthesized inside human fat cells during pre-puberty and early puberty (7-13 years) so basically being fatter makes you enter puberty earlier, kickstarting the growth of boobs earlier. and yes, it is estrogen that makes your boobs bigger. they also start menstruating earlier.

normal age for boob development starts between age 9-14 and usually starts around 9-10.

i hope future generations perfect this and feed their lolis estrogen to give them big boobs and their shotas testosterone so they can raep the lolis

I learned some more about game development/modding, 3d modeling and scripting but still haven't made anything yet. I could make a mediocre video game at this point but I think watching more anime and manga is a better use of that time. There are too many mediocre video games already.

Whatever happened to web-surfing?

I've noticed for a long time now that most people are perfectly content to pen themselves in to the same half dozen crappy websites.And they never leave, despite the websites only getting crappier and crappier.Occassionally a new website manages to join the fold if the devs come up with some new addictive mechanic that plays on people's vanity.Then the website proceeds to get crappier and crappier.My irl friends are always shocked about how little I use Instagram and how I don't have a Tiktok or any of those.They ask me "What do you do all the time then?" in this disbelieving tone, as if I admitted to locking myself in an empty room with zero stimulation as soon as I get home.Why do so many people enjoy the modern equivalent of only having 5 channels on TV???(;´Д`)
