Yalda Night, the longest night of the year, symbolizes the triumph of light over darkness and reminds us that even the darkest times will pass. Families gather to share stories, read poetry, and enjoy fruits like pomegranates, symbolizing health and renewal
Happy Yalda 🍉❤️

Decriminalized narcotics, deregulated gambling, and abundant pornography create the conditions for new cults of radical self regulation.
Brazil has a beautiful culture, but people are still very dumb

Disillusionment with social justice movements is fueling interest in techno-optimist movements, as people seek solutions through innovation rather than ideology.
The social optimism of the 2010s is dead.
The techno-optimism of the 2020s will take its place.

The fastest rate hike cycle in history has put all of humanity on edge.
You can hear it in pop music. The comfort of Taylor Swift’s “Lover” has been replaced by the anxiety of Olivia Rodrigo’s “Vampire.”

GenX irony and GenZ brainrot are symptoms of something both generations share: disillusioned nihilism.
The two citypop songs seeing a resurgence of interest right now, “Stay with Me” from 1979 and “Plastic Love” from 1984, capture an interesting cultural shift.
“Stay with Me” glorifies love and begs for more, as many in the seventies did.
“Plastic Love” gives up on love and embraces hedonism, as many in the eighties did.

The pattern of Left-Right cultural dominance over recent decades plays out like this:
1940s-50s: The Right holds sway. WWII and the Cold War push conformity, patriotism, and anti-communism. Stability is key.
1960s-70s: The Left rises. Civil rights, anti-war, and feminist movements take over. Counterculture drives a focus on freedom, challenging tradition.
1980s: The Right returns. Reagan’s era is about traditional family values, economic conservatism, and anti-Soviet rhetoric. A response to the 60s and 70s excess.
1990s: The Left gains ground. With the Cold War over, there’s room for cultural liberalism—diversity, social freedoms, environmentalism.
2000s: The Right regains influence post-9/11. Security, patriotism, and conservative values intensify amid the “War on Terror.”
2010s: The Left takes the stage. Social media fuels movements like #MeToo, Black Lives Matter, and LGBTQ+ rights. Social justice is the cultural centerpiece.

If the eighties are coming back, then Patrick Bateman’s growing popularity makes a lot of sense.
The glorification of bratty behavior always marks a cyclical peak for the Left.
i’m not trying to be anything but an extension of my Algerian roots
Homogenous culture destroys free thinking, innovation and thus reduces chances of survival and growth.
