  3. Literacy is Dead. Consumerism is Forever.

    A video essay about intelligence, but make it fashion. About camera glasses, and influencers, LLMs, and decreasing literacy rates. About reality, what is not reality, what looks like reality. And decreasing reality rates. While we live in the home of its killer.

  4. Ah, Stephanie Sterling, thank god for them and their video essay called, "Dead Island Deserves Its Due". They defend this game and explain the parallels found with Dying Light. Also, Stephanie is explaining their odd relationship with Dead Island. It brings me joy to listen to their opinion, as I often find myself aligning with their thoughts on most points, not all.

  5. I'm going to watch a multi-hour video essay on the movie The Witch, which is an interesting movie but wasn't really a movie I particularly loved.

    I mean, I didn't hate it but I felt like it was missing something.

    Anyway, I will watch.

  12. I Failed a Right-Wing Philosophy Class

    In a humorous yet incisive critique, the speaker, a former philosophy professor with a PhD, shares their bemusement and concern after failing an online quiz on Marxism, socialism, and communism at Hillsdale College. The course, they argue, is less about educating and more about indoctrinating students into a narrow right-wing ideology that ultimately champions a white Christian ethnostate. This piece of educational content, they suggest, is emblematic of a broader trend where educational platforms are used as tools of propaganda.

    The speaker points out numerous inaccuracies and misleading assertions within the course. They highlight the erroneous claim that Marxists invented being transgender, noting that the first transgender operation in 1930 Germany was later attacked by the Nazis—a fact conveniently omitted in the course narrative. The course, they argue, is riddled with contradictions and inconsistencies, offering a distorted view of socialism, which at its core is about human flourishing and not oppression.

    A central criticism is the course’s failure to define key terms like “human nature,” which it uses to critique Marx’s ideas. The speaker posits that the course likely assumes a libertarian notion of human nature, driven by self-interest, but fails to substantiate this with clear definitions. The course also dismisses Marx’s work as mere “vibes” rather than scientific truths, while elevating its own perspectives as facts and logic.

    The speaker deftly illustrates how the course misrepresents Marx’s ideas, particularly on freedom and individuality. Marx’s concept of communal freedom, they explain, is mischaracterised as a call for the abolition of individual liberty. In reality, Marx believed personal freedom was possible only within a community, a perspective rooted in his dialectical thinking—an approach the course overlooks.

    The course’s treatment of Marx’s critique of religion is similarly flawed. Marx’s view, the speaker clarifies, is not an attack on religion itself but on the oppressive conditions that necessitate it. The course, however, simplifies this into a misleading narrative that Marx sought to eradicate religion and family, ignoring the historical and social context of his ideas.

    As the speaker navigates through the course’s lessons, they note a pattern of guilt by association, where Marx’s ideas are discredited by linking them to historical figures like Lenin, Stalin, and Mao, without substantive critique. The final lesson, they observe, veers into a conspiratorial narrative, suggesting that modern educators and political figures are intent on destroying Western civilisation—a claim the speaker finds both absurd and unfounded.

    The course, they argue, ultimately advocates for a homogenous society, rooted in shared ancestry, language, and religion—an ideal that echoes the white Christian nationalism it seems to endorse. This vision, they contend, is at odds with the diverse and pluralistic reality of contemporary society.

    In conclusion, the speaker laments the misuse of educational content for ideological indoctrination, urging readers to engage critically with ideas and to value educational content that genuinely informs and enlightens. They leave readers with a call to reflect on the importance of diverse perspectives and the need for educational integrity in an increasingly polarised world.

  13. I love it when Stephanie Sterling is talking about the things they love, just as much when they are tearing into shitty executives! In today's video essay, they are discussing the genius of Sengoku Basara!

    Stephanie was disappointed by the po-faced Dynasty Warriors: Origins entry that Capcom is working on. The magic of this goofy and strange franchise was sucked out by Koei Tecmo Games Executives (as the devs probably wanted to have fun with it).

    So they decided to dig deep into Sengoku Basara and talk a lot about this gem of a game. A brilliance that Stephanie didn't see until much later in life. Thank God for Stephanie Sterling!
