lol, those things are coming back stronger than ever.

No they're fragmenting, study the numbers. They're no longer coherent as state-myth, they're now individual claims to moral and ethical superiority.

And notice the idea that sloganeering propaganda is used to describe this: "coming back stronger than ever".

As if religion, myth etc is a brand of detergent, or a sports franchise, or a fast food enterprise.

I think we’re hitting a peak, I expect this to come raging back, maybe in a different form. People are super tired of post-modern meaninglessness.

You’re out of date/touch. We’re already looking at decentralized meaning, where meaning is both visualized and actualized and operable. Journalism and religion are part of ye olde ancient regime of cause and effect. Religion is just conspiracy theory. We need a new post truth form.
