An examination of popular culture including tv/movies/pop music. A eulogy: "Spiritual Bankruptcy in the post-modern world" as briefly peeked-into by two men discussing the feminist breakthrough writer Susan Sontag. "Sontag embodies an age now lost. One where ideas matter. She understood the vital importance of culture, especially in a country (The USA) descending into banality and unbridled consumerism. And she fought, with unmatched ferocity, to protect it."--Benjamin Moser, Sontag biographer. (see video below) How I long to not be drugged/poisoned/under brainwave altering technocratic oppression in order to focus and concentrate on topics that truly interest me. I find myself in an utter state of inertia and exhaustion every day due to various modes of brain/physical attack. The emotional drain from the hateful parasites attacking me is also a negative that I can't overcome with all the other obstacles to focus and concentration. On this theme, how I would love to write and express myself in creative form without fearing that all will be stolen, that the keyboard won't be hacked, that what I write won't be altered to discredit me. That I were not blocked by hateful bigots who want a Nazi-only limited box of ideology and stereotypical imagery to be always put in front and everything I do either stolen or shunted off to be discarded with contempt and silencing and blocks to all functionality and publishing and potential and opportunity.

"Sontag embodies an age now lost. One where ideas matter. She understood the vital importance of culture, especially in a country (The USA) descending into banality and unbridled consumerism. And she fought, with unmatched ferocity, to protect it."--Benjamin Moser, Sontag biographer. (see video below)

"LIFE AND WORK OF SUSAN SONTAG". RT America. July 25, 2021.

I was required to read John Berger's book on art, Ways of Seeing, that shaped a different perspective in my analysis of art and function. This was for a Freshman (undergraduate) course basically in the realm of sociology.

Susan Sontag was a writer I also was required to read, and I have lapsed into forgetfulness of her writings and thus, this will be a good refresher if I can get past the three other 2-hour videos on politics by Chomsky and another one by a former Intelligence operative on how the Cold War has never ended.

The drugging keeps me very ill and unable to focus or concentrate (or is it the remote mind control attacks forcing this with/without the drugging?).

Very worthwhile listening to, spending time if only I was not so ill from drugging/poisoning (concentrate is diminished at least by 50% due to this factor).

One critical feminist perspective that I relied on when listening to the Harvard-trained RT interviewer and the male writer examining the legacy of feminist writer/lesbian/activist/scholar/scriptwriter Susan Sontag is their mutual veiled sexism when detailing how Sontag was a "sadomasochist" and their explanation for why Ms. Sontag was such an emotional wreck (veiled interpretation, words so cleverly concealed but containing the kernel of this essence of her emotional dysfunction and miserable state of living on a personal and sexual level) is that as a Lesbian (who lived with her partner, celebrity icon photographer Annie Leibovitz) for a number of years apparently as well as any pair has done for that length of time--but in a sense discredited as a woman for her emotional foibles, according to the two men creating this image of Sontag as being unable to emotionally intersect with any other human being on a real and tangible emotional level. Due to a few of Sontag's personal introspective analyses of her childhood and her mother's proclivity to abandon the young daughter once any suiter or male swept the mother into some other type of emotional bonding, leaving the young Susan Sontag to flit in isolation and thus, according to these two male commentators of the "intellectual" prowess savvy accepted media commentator status, left an uneradicated scar on Sontag's psyche to the point that only abandoning all lovers emotionally was all she could do in her brilliant intellectual career but, as the men felt relieved to state, emotionally she was essentially as "loser".

This kind of stereotype of women who are successful, when it comes to having a level of comparable or superior capability to males of the same rank in the same field of intellectual pursuit, who are competent as far as producing analytic content goes, but by elimination of their own failures, the fault of the female threat to their manhood must necessarily be somewhat not only a lesbian but even in that escapism from male domination, the domination of this cliche of the woman being emotionally bankrupt is one of the staples of the continuing discrediting of women who hold such a threat to women's independence from the shackles of the intellectual world dominated by males (and violence and threat are not exempt in that lofty world where concepts of using force, intimidation and lies and violence are supposed to be carefully analyzed away or buried into some innocuous pursuit like sports or career aspirations).

Sontag is honored but discredited as the dysfunctional sadomasochistic lesbian by men who are put into the pop culture world of information dissemination on how to analyze content and how to perceive those who are held in reverence but are blocked in this current "post modern" world which these men dominate (with a few "lesbian"/bisexual women trailing behind but put carefully into higher positions as long as they tow the line of male violence and domination. I write this as I have been teleported to more than one of these very famous American types and they are fully immersed in this type of male subordination of me, as long as it can't happen to them--so they assume.) I doubt my analysis of how these men put into the slots that could otherwise be occupied by conflicting narratives would have occurred to any of these "feminist" women who have participated in the torture and violence inflicted upon me by the most sexist, misogynist, rapist, woman-hating organization which has catapulted women who obey but appear ostensibly as "feminist" icons for their endless slew of media productions and political campaigning.
