    Top of the mornin' to y'all. I'm newly registered. I got here by following my nose, starting with comments on an article about the capital B in Black (with lowercase w in white) then thru via popularfront.co to treeofliberty.com, tried registering there but got stumped by "What is Housewolf's profession" which led to googling the question and survivalmonkey.com was one of the top results. Like a typical fairweather human, I registered here instead, and now I'm posting this introduction. QED.

    >>>
    Capitalizing "B" in Black is an identarian dogwhistle disguised as zero-cost virtue signalling. Does it help any POC? No. Does its use or omission signify anti-black racism? Nope. Does it in fact cleverly amplify divisive wedge issues? Yep. In fact, these types of socially regulated purity 'tests' have always been a deliberate crypto-fascist strategy.

    "B" capitalized targets certain key demographics, to weaponize the obsessive-compulsive triggers of both POC-supporting and PC-haters (and others, too) so they're sucked into wasting time reacting, arguing, policing each other's bullshit transgressions. Divide and rule 101.

    "B" capitalized is also becoming a shorthand, speaking to busy agents of the powers-that-be (journalists, trolls, bloggers, teachers, content creators, Nomenklatura activists, etc). It marks an article or opinion piece as safe, conformist orthodoxy, i.e. "irrelevant storytelling" that's designed to look progressive but in reality serve the interests of cabal propaganda.

    Wedge issues are always anti-individual. "B" capitalized is one of a plethora of tactics designed to keep average people occupied, distracted, policing each other, but also atomized and harmless. Meanwhile, nothing changes in the power dynamics of society except the creeping poison of exclusive techno-authoritarianism.

    Welcome to the tree from The Old North State. You'll find a mighty helpful and friendly group here. Spirited discussion and intense debate are the specialty on some of the more twisted and thorny branches, while others are comfortably low-hanging and casual. Pull up a branch and join in the fun.
