English for Compradors on the Eve of the Final Enclosure: A Journey into TED Talk Hell
Added 2025-06-06 06:36:19 +0000 UTCIt’s a pungent bouquet of TED Talks! A blast from the past! Some shots from the aughts! Put on your Pynchon goggles, your Mabeuf plague mask, and your Cuttlefish gloves, because we’re opening up this most dracular document of the moment before the long 2014.
P.S. The episode art is from the actual cover art of the book in question, and it’s tragic that I neglected to discuss it: You there, third-world comprador! Walk on with me, deeper, yes, deeper, into ever darker post-apocalyptic tunnels of the English language! Aren’t glad you survived the Cull?

Its like, finally, I feel *not alone* in my inner paranoid voice constantly clocking these ops that are so much clearer and easier to spot now from listening to guys like Fergal, Marcus, JimmyFalunGong, Recluse, FourthReichArchaeology, TheEmpireNeverEnded, and then voraciously reading the sources they so graciously provide each episode. Incredible and very mind-opening for someone like me who grew up in the SouthEast US and had to unlearn so much in order to clear the head space required to RElearn everything about the world. Thank you!

2025-06-07 03:41:29 +0000 UTCTwo hours of a sane man talking about our historical situation feels like a cold glass of water. Fergal may be wrong about some of his extrapolated guesswork but it is judicious and sensible.
