As documented by Walter Isaacson.“‘You’re blowing it with Fox News,’ Jobs told [Rupert Murdoch] over dinner. ‘The axis today is not liberal and conservative, the axis is constructive-destructive, and you’ve cast your lot with the destructive people. Fox has become an incredibly destructive force in our society. You can be better, and this is going to be your legacy if you’re not careful.’” Setting...

Two hours of Slavoj Žižek (Princeton, 2005)
The complete playlist, 13 parts. “A man who believes himself to be a grain of seed is taken to a mental institution where the doctors do their best to finally convince him that he is not a grain but a man. When he is cured – convinced that he is not a grain of seed but a man – and allowed to leave the hospital, he immediately comes back trembling. There is a chicken outside the door that he is...

Our seeming democracy
Keep seeing this misunderstanding. The Occupy movement isn’t anti-corporation or anti-capitalism. It’s anti plutocracy. An attempt to wrestle the institution of government back from just the few with the means to buy it. It all comes down to campaign finance reform, seems to me – the only remedy I can think of to get politicians to (maybe) answer to the people they represent and not to whoever...

The #OWS movement isn’t anti Wall Street or anti...
The Occupy movement isn’t anti Wall Street or anti corporation. That’s a misconception. Corporations aren’t the problem exactly. Corporations are organized to further their own interests. It’s more or less all they can do. Capitalism works, to be sure. And people get rich. It’s fine. But our government should be organized to take a longer and broader view and further the common interests of...
