Just want to go to a meeting of all the far left Nick Land wonks and sway to dark side jungle

@osmomysl_ I mean ‘multiethnic area ruled over by 1-2 German speaking emperors’ makes sense as a concept… really speaks to the failure of cislethanian state building that it filled the gap as a concept though

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

Romania is in mitteluropa because it had a German king. Really, everywhere in Europe apart from Sweden, Serbia, Iberia and France is mitteluropa

@HppeOsk I was thinking more of Catherine the great for Russia and ex-Russia but yes

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

Thinking further on this. My actual ethnic identity, White English, is never really on forms. Why? Because the state doesn’t care about it for the purposes of ordering the world. Doesn’t make me less English (or indeed white)

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

Census categories exist for the state to see and understand the people, they don’t have any objective basis. Witness how eg in hackney you can be Turkish in the eyes of the council but to the uk govt you’re either Middle Eastern or white other, depending on your own choice

@Arbeitologist The guy was fantastic at analysing his own subjectivity. Don’t bother with the rest

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

@Arbeitologist There’s a simple solution to Fisher Derangement Syndrome - if it isn’t Flatline Constructs or about British music, don’t read it. Pretend it doesn’t exist. If you’re going to read capitalist realism accept it is memoir

@Arbeitologist Tbf we had a guy who did this (fisher) and now we have to tolerate yankkk children telling us he was reactionary or whatever

In all seriousness, the best, most important, and really only ‘indie rock’ album that matters is Unknown Pleasures

@earlboykins @coreydu It must feel amazing to be this confidently wrong

Nothing “impressive” about the “connectedness of the medieval world” to me. They should have been much more connected and they were stupid for not being so

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

@SamuraiApology As someone who’s worked in a lot of large and diffuse organisations I will say this is not surprising to me at all. Better to have no button to press than a button that isn’t wired up

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

@TMChivers @SamuraiApology Yes my understanding esp at the more marketised bbc - lots of formerly internal units basically now functioning as Indy production companies - much less oversight and accountability

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

@SamuraiApology I mean that if your senior management the problem looks more like ‘how do I not get sacked’ than ‘how do I stop abuses’. So things have developed in a direction to prevent senior management from getting sacked

@SamuraiApology Do you think anyone senior at itv will get the chop for walliams’ actions on BGT set for example

[Nick Land's Pension Plan @onionfuture]

@SamuraiApology Well if you think about it it kind of has. By smashing up the remaining g chains of accountability since eg Pete Finchan getting sacked because of the editing of the Queen walking, it’s much harder for bosses to get in trouble
