I'm curious: did he used to have a talent for humor too?
What was once used to create a laugh, the absurdness of tangents and conspiracies, is now serious because it's attributed to a virtualized antagonist, who is manipulating our lives and making fun of it, by exploiting collective behavior, pulling the strings.
It's us that do not see we are manipulated, and that we are propelled to invest towards what's not in our own interest, taking them for a ride to an unwanted future. They must feel their control over their own lives is being taken away.
Perhaps like the jews knowingly went to the slaughter, and they could not be convinced to revolt themselves and fight for their life?
- ajuc 2y agoIf you mean that he used the conspiracy theories to sound funny and edgy - maybe? Hard to tell what he believed when we were in middle school and what he just said for lolz. Now he does believe in all that shit. The latter part of your comment was hard to parse for me, I can only say that some Jews did revolt (for example in Warsaw Ghetto). But I'm not sure what was your point with this analogy.
