Rob Henderson: How luxury beliefs took over the elite

[@tim2muntu607]

Here's the thing about totalitarian systems. They don't require your agreement, they require your acquiescence. Every time you keep your mouth shut when you disagree, and just go along, you add one more brick to the totalitarian prison being built around you. If you don't know this, your feelings have already told you this, have they not?

[@mark4asp]

Woke isn't a totalitarian belief system. It's too unhinged and incoherrent. It's far more a set of broken ethics or a moral system.

[@robertmadison1205]

Yeah, but...what to do.

[@tim2muntu607]

Speak up! Say your piece. If that gets you booted out, you're better off out. It doesn't much matter if you walk off, or get booted off the Titanic, you're still better off outside it. "Go woke, go broke" is a cliche for a reason - totalitarian systems all fail because they're not in touch with reality. If you have to choose between reality and "acceptance", go with reality, it's a far better and more constant friend.(and a FAR more hostile enemy).

[@tim2muntu607]

Speak up, say your piece. If this has negative repercussions, you're probably on a sinking ship already. Whether you walk off or get kicked off, it's better being off. An institution that denies reality is one you don't want to be in. Reality is a better friend than social acceptance, and a FAR more dangerous enemy.

[@romeomateo3905]

Not really, no I lived in a totalitarian state for 15 years. In many ways I still live. People voice their disagrement in dictatorship, a lot. But they DO NOT DO much. For example in Russia you really can speak badly about Putin. I will not advise you to do it, but you could. But .... people in Russia do NOTHING. That is the key. They are not engaged. They do not care about politics. They do not care about power. They do not care about Russia. Russians are hyper-individualistic. They look after themselves and that is about it. The problem in USA is the overproduction of elites. There are just too many people with education and wealth and all feel they deserve to lead. And they DO too much. Too much identity politics, too many rallies, too many campains, waaay too much politics. January the 6th is such an example. All those people should have stayed home. In the same sense, all those people who do all kind of trans stuff & drag queen hours also should stay home. USA is medicating kids and this is wrong. As I said, too much education and too much wealth. In a related thing, talking about totalitarism is difficult. Here in Eastern Europe there are millions who regret the "good old days" in Communism. Those people did not understood their own experiences.

[@debbielondon1809]

This has been going on for decades. Only now has the monster grown so ludicrous and large that more people are seeing it.

[@nozrep]

i don’t disagree. However I also believe slightly differently that many of “us” on the other side, such as the American Christian conservative family I grew up in, many of us totally dropped the ball, as it were, for many decades, unfortunately, recognizing it as it happened and grew, talking and speaking and praying against it amongst ourselves, yet also somehow, simultaneously totally underestimating the enemies resolve to destroy our freedoms. And while it may not we too late, and while we must fight regardless, some of us just completely underestimated the enemy and haven’t done as much as we should to protect all peoples’ freedoms against, for one example, the tyranny of the plandemic.

In our society higher education has morphed into big business. The primary driver of this business is not education per se, but money; The students are the customers, the product is accreditation considered necessary to gain access to careers of the upper and upper middle classes. The student customers pay high prices for this product to ensure that they won't face the bleak futures of average people and ultimately, as in any business the customer is always right. Don't like the silly, petty demands of your affluent customers? You're in the wrong line of work. Find another business.

The elite of the woke era have made themselves so unenviable. No one has to explain the appeal of the Kardashians- essentially elevated middle class- but dynastic wealth and the media/tech elite have given themselves over to suffocating moral hauteur and performative self-flagellation, while deglamorizing both themselves and the cities they inhabit. Except for themselves, no one believes the Ivy League elite are even smart- for every rinky-dink contrivance that’s stupid on its face- gender ideology, Russia collusion, “the insurrection”, &c.- you can be sure its most fervent believers are clustered at the postgraduate level of education.

You people are so stupid the issue is when an historical oppressor group takes things from the oppressed group and strips away the meaning of it making it a caricature of the original culture. It can go even deeper like black artist in America having their music stolen in the early 20th century not getting any credit or money for the music they created. With many early jazz, blues and rock musicians dying broke while the white counterparts made millions and ultimately black people were erased from Rock and Roll. You are white people you no oppressor you can’t fathom this line of thinking. You will do everything mentally to justify this society and your belief system but facts hold up that this system is destroying the planet. It’s the worst thing humanity has ever created but since we’re in it and so much identity is wrapped up in it(yes conservative white identity politics) it will never be criticized in the mainstream.

Here's a ChatGPT summary: - Rob Henderson transitioned from the military to Yale University in 2015. - He was impressed by the students' ability to absorb and synthesize information. - Henderson struggled initially with academic demands and campus politics. - He observed a campus controversy over Halloween costumes and cultural appropriation. - Students protested against professors, calling them racist and demanding their firing. - Henderson was called "privileged" by a student when he asked why the email about costumes was offensive. - He chose not to use his identity as a counter-argument to learn more about students' beliefs. - Henderson noticed that students made assumptions about his identity and experiences. - He worked in a psychology lab and took many classes, leading to the development of his "luxury beliefs" concept. - Henderson believes that 10-20% of elite students cynically exploit social issues, while the majority have good intentions but lack self-reflection. - He discusses the concept of "luxury beliefs," which are status symbols among the elite that can have negative consequences for less fortunate people. - The elite may support fashionable movements to distinguish themselves from the masses. - Henderson criticizes the idea of "trickle-down meritocracy" or "trickle-down diversity," where equity is seen as having a demographically representative 1%. - He argues that real equity should focus on improving conditions for marginalized communities, not just representation in elite positions. - Henderson discusses the disconnect between the stable families of the affluent and the deteriorating family structures in lower-income communities. - He highlights the promotion of addictive technologies by tech executives who restrict screen time for their own children. - Henderson is open to financial assistance and welfare but emphasizes the importance of culture, habits, mindset, and families. - He identifies with his working-class roots despite his educational journey and feels moderate or centrist in his views. - Henderson finds campus politics in the UK less intense than in the US but still problematic. - Main message: Rob Henderson shares his experiences transitioning from the military to Yale, his observations of campus politics, the concept of "luxury beliefs," and the importance of stable families and mindful technology use. He also discusses his personal political stance and the state of campus politics in the UK.

Now they just seem to be dominated by moneymaking and the accumulation of the maximum amount of money in the shortest period of time."

It disappeared before long. Such lack of appreciation became evident in the way those elites treated the approved authorities- e.g. in science! Arrogance alone was not enough to win over the pandemic: established capacities like Dr Bhattacharya, Dr Sucharit Bhakdi, Dr Arne Burckhardt, Dr Martin Haditsch, Dr Angus Dalgleish... asf were NOT asked for advice!! Nearly pushed aside, if possible, the new star of the "I am the science!"-generation gave a lamentable example: such procedures will reveal the true quality of those se of future rulers, very soon-I'm convinced!!

There seems no difference between luxury beliefs and other luxury products. It's exactly the same. They very much do seem to be identity markers. Fashion brands like Jack (is it Wills or Willis? Failing badly there)...but luxury products begin as brands that are not advertised so that they spread by word of mouth within the tribe, One has to be in the tribe to know. By the time people outside the group begin to find out and 'chavs' start wearing Burberry to ape those they perceive to have high status, the high status group have already moved onto another fashion in order to protect their 'elite' status. It's so obviously cyclical; I cannot fathom why people copy them at all. Maybe we should just raise awareness of that fact.
