The corporation itself has been captured by ideologues who are confused why they are failing, despite them assuming they would succeed according to their ideology, dialectic, or meta-narrative. As a result, they are incapable of understanding the failures in their system, so reality has to constantly hit them in the face with failure.
The Fabians themselves faced something like this in 2008. The insurance companies (Mega Insurance Companies) for the banks did a statistical analysis that suggested the chance of the market crashing when it did was a 64 standard deviation chance. That effectively means that they honestly believed you were more likely to spontaneously walk through a wall due to quantum alignment than the market crashing on the day it did. It should have told them that their statistical model was flawed beyond repair, instead they used it to claim that no earthly being could have predicted it... which doesn't explain why some funds were shorting the market over a year ahead of time.
The day they loose everything is sooner than you think. The system is unsustainable, and the collapse will be equivalent to the collapse of the Soviet Union and international communism.
I think they're killing off FTA deliberately as they have streaming alternatives. One of their shows recently recorded a ZERO in the ratings. They've destroyed Survivor. It was an absolute travesty that SBS didn't do the Taskmaster AU version as 10 have ruined it with their casting choices. There's literally only one good show still worth watching on 10 and that is Have you Been Paying Attention. The rest of the channel is a write off. My wife watched one show - The Living Room - they cancelled that. CBS have no idea how to compete in Australia - that or it's deliberate.
I've not had 10 on in years. It's just been insufferable, and their Perth morning show having actually 0 viewers is proof it's not just me and people like me. Nobody watches that shit.
I don't know how we got from 'rove live' and 'skithouse' to 'the project' but I suspect it's that lot pushing most of it, roving enterprises. Dave hughes, wes anderson, corine grant and peter hellier... its the same few people, and now that insufferable waleed person. Old abc political hack comedians (who were at least funny if biased when on the abc 15 years ago) who came to 10 and became more obnoxious and far less funny.
10 used to be massive with neighbours, simpsons and seinfeld. A shame.
Not entirely related, but I just discovered that someone I used to know quite well, who never expressed any signs of this in the time I knew him (was always a bit weird, but never this) has succumbed to the cult of trans…
This is the fourth (!!) person I’ve known well, but I knew this guy for the longest…
His parents are fucking weirdos, so I’m not surprised he’s ended up fucked up, but damn…
Amusingly enough, he gave me shit in high school, for not being “cool enough”, so I guess… What goes around, and all that.
True, but I thought I was too old for this to be something I would see in more than one former classmate… 😑
I thought that was a Zoomer thing, really.
There were a few in the year below me - I knew that already. But now it’s spread to people I know better…
It’s always the rich kids, though, in my experience…
One of them is casually on a trip to Antarctica right now.
When he was younger, his family used to take regular trips to Rwanda, to see the gorillas…
It was always going to be someone like that, who did this, I suppose… 🙄
Meanwhile, me, with barely enough savings to get by - I’m busy budgeting the next six months…
“Trip to Antarctica? Thousands of dollars in ‘gender affirming’ HRT and whatever else? Girlfriend is a dominatrix [sure looks that way]..? Hahahahaha…”
I’ve rarely ever seen a media company shoot itself in the foot this badly (yes, even Disney and DC)…
It’s like… They’ve blown the foot off, with a shotgun.
In fact it’s almost like something like “The Producers”, where they are deliberately trying to collapse the whole operation…
I dunno. It takes almost full ideological commitment “to the party”, at the very least, to be quite this insufferable…
I look forward to the day all of them are unemployed…
Not that it will happen, but we can dream, lol.

Still fucking bizarre though.
I hate this trend.
His attitude suggests a fundamental level of insecurity, and need for affirmation by a collective.
Guess what happened.
The Queer Theorists are predators, through and through.
Two. Two people (male) from my relatively small finishing class at school, I discover today are "transitioning"...
The fuck is going on here??
Social contagion much. It's been over a decade since we finish, and now this...
Eugh.
Are they vaxxed as well?
Almost certainly, judging by the mask selfies… 😑
But I honestly dare not ask. I would rather not be too “in touch” with these people, to be honest…
maybe the vax has fucked their testosterone production
