    I always liked his observation that Disneyland was created in order to make the rest of America seem real.

      Fun fact: one of the lawyers who helped buy land for Disney was ex-CIA.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Paul_Helliwell" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Paul_Helliwell</a>

        Another fun fact, most of the success of critical theory, post modernissm, &quot;neo-marxism&quot;, left-wing intellectuals, etc is because of the three letters.<p>They successfully kept western leftists overpaid and spewing fashionable nonsense in the academy instead of acting in the world. The fact that left-wing intellectuals are so trash is engineered on purpose.<p>Jacques Lacan and his fake ass math equations in particular can only be explained this way as a literal psyop on academia.<p>Chomsky was in bed deep with Epstein and the left has turned themselves into a pretzel trying to explain it . Foucault, Sartre, De Beauvoir were defenders of pedophilia. Foucault might actually have been a pedophile! Arendt (a jew) was fornicating with a Nazi (Heidegger) and ties herself into a pretzel defending it (after also defending American segregation for some reason???), Deleuze killed himself. Althusser went crazy and killed his wife. Wilheilm Reich went just as loony related to the &quot;orgone&quot; machine (despite mass psychology of fascism being a decent-ish book).<p>Please just leave this decadent and degenerate misapplication of &quot;philosophy&quot; in the dust-bin where it belongs. Baudrillard is part of this.<p>:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;thephilosophicalsalon.com&#x2F;the-cia-reads-french-theory-on-the-intellectual-labor-of-dismantling-the-cultural-left&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;thephilosophicalsalon.com&#x2F;the-cia-reads-french-theor...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jacobin.com&#x2F;2018&#x2F;08&#x2F;fbi-infiltration-new-left-aoki-sds" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jacobin.com&#x2F;2018&#x2F;08&#x2F;fbi-infiltration-new-left-aoki-s...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2013&#x2F;09&#x2F;09&#x2F;us&#x2F;when-sartre-and-camus-met-hoovers-g-men.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2013&#x2F;09&#x2F;09&#x2F;us&#x2F;when-sartre-and-camus-...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;viewpointmag.com&#x2F;2021&#x2F;11&#x2F;08&#x2F;the-fbi-file-on-foucault&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;viewpointmag.com&#x2F;2021&#x2F;11&#x2F;08&#x2F;the-fbi-file-on-foucault...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;csuepress.columbusstate.edu&#x2F;cgi&#x2F;viewcontent.cgi?article=1331&amp;context=theses_dissertations" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;csuepress.columbusstate.edu&#x2F;cgi&#x2F;viewcontent.cgi?arti...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.radicalphilosophy.com&#x2F;article&#x2F;walking-through-walls" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.radicalphilosophy.com&#x2F;article&#x2F;walking-through-wa...</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;opiniojuris.org&#x2F;2009&#x2F;08&#x2F;04&#x2F;the-idf-is-deleuzian&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;opiniojuris.org&#x2F;2009&#x2F;08&#x2F;04&#x2F;the-idf-is-deleuzian&#x2F;</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;theopolisinstitute.com&#x2F;leithart_post&#x2F;deleuzian-war&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;theopolisinstitute.com&#x2F;leithart_post&#x2F;deleuzian-war&#x2F;</a>

    I always enjoy the moment in The Matrix where Neo flops a hollowed out copy of this book open, to fish out some illicit mini-disc he’s storing in it.
