In the US there is basically a binary consisting of two manufactured realities that ultimately work together to achieve common objectives (division, class warfare, surveillance, perpetual war etc.) They appear to be dramatically divergent, but actually have a lot of continuity. For example, they both shift blame to externalities (left: Russians right: immigrants) to deflect from internal anti-democratic forces and they both exploit manufactured fear to limit citizen power, line corporate pockets, and increase the security of the upper class. They work together cause chaos (Shock doctrine), and then give the masses two opposing and irreconcilable solutions to choose from. It ensures division and suppresses critical thought.
That binary division is inherent to the binary form of government of the US. Two housed. Effectively two partied. First past the post voting system- either/or. No real proportionality. Gerrymandering possible both within each state and by potentially arbitrary federal allocation re the electoral college. How any country can claim to be truly democratic if the electoral winner has mathematically less voters than the opposition party in that country? OK so the US is a Republic not actually a democracy. Yet the level of democracy has been the diplomatic yardstick for the evaluation of other countries by the US- supposedly.
@Holden Ru *_'Technically'..._* the BBC is a so-called _'non-profit'_ that is funded by UK TV viewers via the TV License. Of course, I used the word, _'technically',_ because the license is purely another form of taxation (in the same way the _'Road Fund License'_ is AKA *_Road Tax!_* Moreover, it is the unfairest form of taxation because it is flat rate per household, regardless of how many residents or televisions or incomes, which affect an individual's or family's ability to pay for it!... i.e.: A billionaire living in a mansion with a TV in every room only needs one TV license and pays the same for it as a pensioner living on his/her own, or a single-parent raising 2 or 3 kids on his/her own. Happily, I no longer need to buy a license because I no longer watch or record terrestrial, satellite or cable television as it is broadcast.
I am glad that someone has come to Foucault's defense fairly. It is strange how the Peterson effect has created a new scapegoat. At least it is merely dead Frenchmen rather than the living. I am a big reader of Jung's works as well. It would be nice to use Jung's ideas to retreat into a Harry Potter fantasy at this point in history. A pity that it is a bit of a luxury. Foucault's ideas helps me embrace the grit and work with what we got.
Things like fake news can become like a ritual where by it connects you to the other members of the group, suspicion can serve its purpose because you change the norms of the group. A control issue. He probably stops short from saying he doesn't want to be a product of his environment, he wants his environment to be a product of him, probably did just want to be useful.

What would Foucault say about the BBC? Biased, racist, sexist, social engineering, cultural marxism. Everything the BBC produces has an agenda: politics, science, weather, sport, comedy, entertainment.
The more I learn about Foucalt, the more I am convinced he was largely inconsistent. He questions everything, yet stil he wants to believe in something. He and his band of thinkers unleashed a post-modern mindset which, unfortunately, today has gone of its hinges.
I know exactly what he would think of the BBC.
I know exactly what he would think of people like you.

The question is: what would Foucault say TODAY, during the covid-19 "pandemics"...
very good and fair summary of Foucault's major arguments
BBC talking about fake news? Jesus Christ they've got some nerve lol

He was an outspoken pedophile
chris lesniewski has nothing to do with the validity of his philosophical observations.
what do you mean by the Peterson effect ?
Fake news talking about fake news.

Wow....just.....wow
BBC: "READ FOUCAULT. WATCH BBC. IT'S REAL NEWS" lol
One of the reliable channels BBC that accurately reports on aviation, unlike US media which says tarmac instead of runway
Roses are red violets are blue
