• I don’t think people want this. Nobody sees an article like this and is like, “hell yeah, they killed a kid!”

• Is “jealous genocider who condones slavery and thinks women should shut the fuck up” a more accurate descriptor?

• I don’t think that comparison conveys just how bad this is. I’m not talking about their egos (which of course are massive) here.

  This is about fundamentally changing the way society is organized back to something that resembles feudalism.

  This is not paranoid conspiracy theory stuff, this is the explicit goal of many, by their own admissions (e.g. Curtis Yarvin, Peter Theil, etc)Then there are many more who are “proteges” of these people who maybe hide the “if you elect me I will do everything I can to kill your democracy” slightly better (e.g. JD Vance, Russ Vought, etc).

  The latter are able to get elected and/or appointed to powerful positions because the electorate doesn’t know what “feudalism” or “serfdom” actually mean anyway.

  Next thing you know, we’re all fucking serfs.

• I highly recommend watching The Corner if you’re a fan of The Wire.

  It’s heartbreaking, but very very good. And yeah the woman who plays Francine deserves awards for that shit, I mean wow.

  I never watched Homicide. I get the vibe that it didn’t hold up as well as his later stuff.

• Cool story.

  on The Wirule in c/onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 12 Sep 2026

• Side note, I watched The Corner for the first time a few weeks back. All of the episodes are on YouTube.

  It’s based on the book Simon wrote about Baltimore that would eventually lead to The Wire, but all it the stories are true which makes it a major bummer at times.

  The Wire DNA is there, but some of the dialogue and acting isn’t quite at that level (but is that even really fair to compare?), but once you get into it and remember it’s true stories, it’s incredibly engrossing. Proto-Wire. Barely any stuff from the cop side, not much from the dealing side, almost all from the side of the addicts living “the game” day to day.

  Some familiar actors too. But the woman who plays Fran was just outstanding. Honestly seems like she wasn’t even acting most of the time. I hope she was, because otherwise goddamn… She absolutely fucking kills it. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her in anything else.

  But yeah, brutal shit, be warned.

  Here’s the first episode. Stick with it, they drop the fake interview thing almost immediately before getting into unfiltered David Simon magic:

• If anyone needs to be monitored, it’s all of these fucking techno-feudalist freaks.

  If you know what feudalism is, and want it back so bad that you’re willing to bankroll it to the tune of billions of dollars, then you need to be monitored. At the very least. A real, functioning democracy would take those types of threats to its existence seriously.

  Instead we (e.g. any alleged form of government safe guard meant to protect us from devolving back into such barbaric forms of society like feudalism) just sit back and say “huh, I wonder if they’ll be able to completely destroy our government this time. Oh well, guess we’ll find out”. Or even worse, now that these psychopaths control the levers of government in the US, they are actually aiding it. They think they want feudalism back because they’re just temporarily embarrassed feudal lords.

  Edit:

  These people literally want to make us back into serfs. And we’ll answer to a fucking LLM. That will be the only interface between us and the Lords. You know that Amazon chatbot? That’s your boss now… Err no that’s not right. The word “boss,” is not sufficient to describe the relationship. That chat bot owns you now. Well, the person who owns the server it’s running on owns you, but why would they ever choose to interact with dirty serfs when AI can do it? If it’s important, they’ll relay it to them. They won’t even be aware of your medical complaints, let alone need to hear them, let alone need to address the working conditions that created them.

  This shit is not a joke and it is very much not funny. It’s genuinely insane that we are allowing this to happen.
