Behind Steve Bannon, Robert Mercer and by extension Donald Trump, is a huge network of multi-billion dollar think-tanks and policy accelerators.

If anything is ”Deep State”, it’s them.

But it’s not the same when they do it. They can’t help themselves but project all their intentions on others though.

That is exactly what makes danmei so "subversive", says Dr Liang Ge, who teaches digital sociology at University College London. It allows women to "detach from gendered realities", which they often associate with marriage and motherhood.

"The Chinese government wants to promote traditional family values and liking danmei novels is seen as a factor in making women less willing to have children," Dr Ge explains.

I was feeding the dogs this morning. I realized that if I fed them less and they were hungry all the time, they would not be mad at me. In fact, they would grown even more dependant & on me, and view me as an even more powerful figure. I could keep feeding them less and less and this would continue to happen. They would probably become competitive and resentful of the other dog.

The definition of political #conservatism isn’t upholding ”traditional values”, that’s just another lie they told you.

It’s about conserving the relationships of power within society. About how the rich ”deserve” their privileges etcetera.

That’s how it was and has been from the french revolution onwards. Don’t believe the hype.
