As old media dies, gatekeepers of cultural sensibilities and etiquette have been overthrown, notions of popular taste maintained by a small creative class are now perpetually outpaced by viral online content from obscure sources, and culture industry consumers have been replaced by constantly online, instant content producers.

The left will need to be much more organized and prepared for the spread of Fascism in the west, but there’s no way the left will succeed by doing university debates with people like Milo or Jordan Peterson.As Nagle observes, if the left is to proceed, “it may be time to lay the very recent and very modern aesthetic values of counterculture to rest, and create something new.

Unwilling to stomach the liberal shibboleths that fail to adequately explain the emergence and significance of right-wing subculture, she's the only one willing to descend into the grimiest of Internet grottos and give us the benefit of her incisive and cool-headed analysis. e. 4chan vs Tumblr) that are also a feedback loop, making each other more ridiculous and vicious with their transgressive behaviour. Maybe the process of realizing one is trans is difficult, emotionally complex, and people express it in different ways? The Economist: Does the restrictive nature of political correctness inadvertently push people away from progressive politics?The right took the opportunity to talk directly to those who felt rightly or wrongly alienated by the debate.

I don't care if things are in perfect Chicago style, but I do care about being able to trace the transit of words and ideas across people, spaces, and contexts, and Nagle's loose and highly referential style makes it near impossible. Are trauma and disabilities often undiagnosed, with some people finding help in diagnosing their problems that are ignored? I'm not well versed in literary criticism, philosophy, or whatever you would describe this portion of the book as, so I can't say much more about it. Very early on, players found out that when a Horde player said “lol”, it would be read by the opposition as “kek”. Nagle sets the stage by comparing the Obama's 2008 presidential campaign with Clinton's 2016 campaign, wondering why Clinton's campaign was met with widespread internet mockery and memes - despite employing the same tricks as the Obama.A large part of my social timeline became obsessed with toilets, an amount of interest that is not proportional to the percentage of the population affected. Ruthless competitive individualism is being applied to the romantic and private realm and it's deeply anti-social. The major complaint is that, for an avowed materialist, there is very little materialism here - almost all the cultural phenomena are understood in terms of continuations of and/or reactions to other cultural phenomena. Since the author's publications elsewhere (for instance, Jacobin) lack this deficiency, I lay the blame on Zero Books. In “Kill All Normies,” Angela Nagle explores the deepest and darkest sub-cultures of the internet to find out how the far-right reignited the culture wars and help Trump triumph in the 2016 presidential election.
