9. Part 10: Corruption, Soft and Hard Force, Upton Sinclair and Sinclair Lewis

I have never actually gotten past the first few chapters of Babbitt or the first page or so of “The Jungle”, but I can quote from the internet with the best! That is almost as good as reading a book right? No? Oh well..
These are educational, insightful, inspirational (a bridge too far?), aspirational little life lessons with no undertone of vicious spite that the (probably braindead if not a DUer - if you can get past MIRT and EarlG/elad okay..that is why this is a community that has TOS I support as a non-American who mostly comments on creeps not directly American politics) reader -quite possibly a corrupt shrink or scammy technologist or garbage ai..lol..-might pick up on.
What vicious spite? Paranoid much?

Just because I explicitly say the vicious spite is real doesn’t mean it is! I could be another one of these boneheads, I mean elite Machiavellian strategists, who try to sell the dumbest people anywhere on the notion that you can exploit truthiness (I came up with that word! All me! Oh wait! I am not a criminal, thieving piece of garbage ai built by a Google or Facebook parasite with no talent, but lots of ties with politicians and industrialists who cuts deals with corrupt universities and hospitals owned by Blackstone…artistic license! I snarl traffic because I am a sleazy attention whore without a life! And Google approving of my worthless “art” rather than getting on the phone with their lawyers to ask how to evade criminal liability is a sign that I am not crazy but authentic! Steven Colbert came up with that!
Hey I have an idea! Like my creepy phone service AirTel! Why don’t we repackage 20 year old rants by Steven Colbert/Christian Bale/random news articles and internet posts as some sort of sleazy meme and use it to champion “women entrepreneurs”!)

Where was I? Yeah..
So here is the deal..an authentic! Real! person who had some sort of respectable existence they were falling at on multiple fronts is not going to work with some creeps to make internet art and come to a table full of such disingenuous conversation that you would have to have a mental disorder to participate in. That may even be lawyer recommended for the Google and Facebook creeps.
I am sorry! I was influenced into scamming and robbing society and trying to take random women hostage while telling them it is for their own mental health and not at all suggesting that a marijuana (and Modafinil! From a small mom and pop pharmacy with no ties to any lf this but who cares! The all seeing (creepy) eye knows! This is benevolent!) user should be grateful.
And a Hindu Fascist like Ol’jfz9580m is obviously oppressing various salt of the earth communist friendly corrupt businesses like the ones that laid waste to the Western Ghats

I am better at balance than Fox News! I don’t bother with fairness. Fuck em all. Except for the people I alerted last week or ones with no connection to this bullshit at all, YOYO! Like I was! Poor oppressed, slandered, bullied, traumatized 🤭 Ol’jfz9580m. She has battered woman syndrome! From constant worries about

I am not slamming the left casually. I don’t pay attention to the right. Most of us have some pragmatic instincts and some instincts that determine our politics. I am not conservative. It is up to conservatives to figure out how to deradicalize and educate their side. The most I can do is strain EarlG’s patience by agreeing that TikTok should be banned and that “defund the police”, “open borders” are terrible slogans and that I do not agree that left cancel culture is imaginary, because I don’t buy that this shit is “left” that you see online.

The most left leaning people I met aside from Yasha/Ketcham and the usual suspects proudly displayed as proof that Ol’jfz9580m is not a total misanthrope were hard scientists and doctors. They are rarely right leaning since science has a reality based bias (I came up with that! I am ChatGPT! No Steven Colbert again..I attribute! I have ethics!)
Behold thd hypocrisy of the reproductive organ based slurs of the loathesome RetractionWatch (probably..I just remember them as this thing scientists grovel to in order to convince various bullies they are honest. The ORI is free to directly contact Ol’jfz9580m. RetractionWatch/the internet/that ass Kent Anderson/Russell Poldrack (full coverage! Fair and balanced in every dispute! Also the safest position! Safety!) are invited to go fuck themselves.
After all that bullshit about plagiarism (often targeting international students, pocketing whose tuition is a good idea, but simple mentoring to explain concepts unfamiliar to foreign students without a scammy internet shilling worldview as well..we are all way too connected..it is a disease at this point..DU is the only internet part I support and old school..plain text is fine by Ol’jfz9580m..
Yasha Levine had a very funny piece ..funny thing about Yasha ..without any scammy “Google telepathy!!!” I know exactly how he, Evgenia and Chris Ketcham, Ed Zitron etc think..why would one need anything but the most basic and utilitarian phone and net tech for that? I can find people by typing in topics of interest..yeah I guess you had to start out with a personality and some self other than…what is every other creep out there doing/thinking or shilling? With the smallest seeds you can find in the real world I can observe and see things.
Why do I need a pervert soup of information that is mostly..Weeeeeeeeee..weeeee are all scammy, stupid, egotistical etc?

But they are overworked …the scientists and doctors (they are all probably unemployed increasingly so it isn’t sycophantic anymore to extend real support)..and like any of who see these cancers not as an opportunity!
To (like Rush Limbaugh) bloviate into the void casting truckloads of asparagus in all directions, risking libel/slander and defamation without being clear that this is a precursor to a criminal lawsuit since I think that only that will wake these people up.
And after you lose your mom and find out that the hospital you always tried to convince yourself is not totally sleazy (competent and decent doctors..and too mild..why are all the nicest and most competent people so mild? I liked Tejas Thackeray. I used to look at Madhav Gadgil and think..yeah that might not work..my vegan lady friend rescued me and anyone who calls her a “female entrepreneur” is a prick. We need a new language. Crooked Timber got it and then something loathesome called Reid Hoffman Media Studies..the entire internet is a parasite now..this will be grabbed and defanged by ai so some person who writes on a thing called Shamblog can use it to spread bogus ai safety humblebrags for these pathetic shitware agents..and all sorts of idiots will say “ooooooo..ai is so dangerous”).
Where was I?

So this is hopefully something perceived as sane human written and a precursor to a criminal lawsuit here in India and medical malpractice and misconduct in human subject research allegations and harassment charges over the use of a private citizen’s residence in India coupled with constant intimidation, coercion, stalking and bribery attempts.

I wrote to my medical marijuana company and my vegan lady friend and expressed full support in case this all-sided scam tried to lure them or worse cut into their honest profits the way Substack etc do bogus white hatting/crypto etc and keep information from flowing so people cannot collaborate and cooperate seriously and honestly.

The Sinclair Lewis quote can be paraphrased to point out that when corruption with autocratic instincts becomes more current, it will shill worthless therapies, space grabs and finally harassment as care, community and probably art. Democritization!
What is so left about always failing in the face of overt corruption and thuggery?
How is it not distasteful to see what is clearly written by an angry and harassed woman who copes because some of us cannot be easily victimized..that too by a collection of mindnumbingly stupid people?
I am lucky this is such a stupid society. Otoh I would not be in this position else.

They are going to destroy the public sector in India and jobs like my parents’ and force thid trash labeling it “development” or “uplifting women” , a teaching moment!
No..i am pressing charges as a marijuana user.


I can go to the local police right away and explain to them about my marijuana use and how it helped me and the only racket is not coming from delivery boys/basic services/my
specific 2 ayurvedic doctors/my MJ company but something from inside trying to take society hostage to sell a surveillance state as the new form of existence.
WE!
“I sexually harassed lots of women and committed fraud and misconduct and knowingly participated in this trash! Ol’jfz9580m was kind of a slacker who used pot and inundated every available digital tool with confusing drivel for 15 years! We! We are all in this together!
