Yonke le nto yaqala xa ndabona umfanekiso kaTrump efotwe ukuba ubekho uMlawuli onguThixo woMntu .
KwakungoDisemba ophelileyo, xa iphulo likaTrump lalitshintshela kwizixhobo eziphezulu. Ndandimncinci ndimsulwa oh kwiinyanga ezininzi ezidlulileyo, kodwa loo mfanekiso wandibangela. Kwakunjengokuzonwabisa I-Poker yamaxoki (endiyenzayo) kwaye emva koko ndafumanisa ukuba ezinye izinto ezirhubuluzayo eWall Street ziyisebenzisa njengesikhokelo (abazenzileyo). Kuyandicaphukisa xa abantu ndingabathandiyo babelana ngoxabiso ngento endiyithandayo, kodwa ndayikhupha.
Kodwa bendiqhubeka ndibona lo mfanekiso, kunye nemifanekiso efanayo, ivela kwi-intanethi. Kwaye emva kokuba ndibhale ngakumbi inqaku elahlukanisayo ye-TMS emva ngoJanuwari, ndiye ndaqala ukubhencwa kwizinto ezinobuhlobo ezingaphantsi IWarhammer 40k ’S fanbase kwaye yaqala ukubambeka kwingqondo yam. Ndaye ke ndakhumbula ukuba, emva xa iGamerGate yayiseyinto abantu abayithatha ngokungathí sina, indlela ababehlala besebenzisa ngayo imifanekiso ebuyiselweyo IWarhammer 40k njengepropaganda. Kwaye amanye amachaphaza aqala ukunxibelelana ngasemva kwengqondo yam.
Iyahlekisa loo nto, Ndazixelela. Ayikho kwaphela indlela abanokuthi bachonge ngokunyanisekileyo nge-Imperium of Man okanye amandla ayo e-fascist. Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, i-Imperium yoMntu yi lumo ye-fascism, kwaye ayisiyonto ifihlakeleyo kuloo nto, kuba umdlalo uhlala uthetha malunga nokuba bungakanani ubomi obusondayo kunye nendlela ubuzwilakhe obubangela iingxaki ngakumbi kunokuba usombulula. Kuya kufuneka bangaboni ukuba iWarhammer 40k… ngumntwana… ding.
Owu. Owu hayi .
Masime okomzuzwana kwaye sithethe nge-satire, kuba ndiyazithanda iishifti ezinzima ngoluhlobo. Ingxaki ngesatire (okanye, ngokuthe ngqo, ingxaki yokubhala isatire) kukuba ineenjongo, ngaphaya kokuhlekisa. I-Satire ikhonjisiwe, inenjongo, kukuthi, ukusebenzisa ibinzana endihlala ndingalithandi, ndithetha into. Ngokukodwa, isatire ithetha into ngokuthatha into enqwenela ukuyigxeka kwaye iyivuthele kwimilinganiselo engekho ngqiqweni.
Kwaye kule ngxaki: I-Satire ihlala ihamba ngencakuba. Ngokusebenzisa amagama kunye neekhonsepthi zale nto uyihluthisayo, uhlala unika ilizwi kulawo magama kunye neekhonsepthi, kwaye umntu othile phaya uza kuvuma nala magama, hayi eyona nto uyithandayo. Esi sisiseko soMthetho wePoe: Ngaphandle komboniso ocacileyo wokuhlekisa, akunakwenzeka ukuba wenze parody yokuzibaxa izinto okanye ubungqongqo ukuba umntu angaphazami ngento yokwenyani.
Lo ngumngxunya womvundla onokuchitha iiyure ngokuthetha ngawo, kodwa oko kuya kuba kukubi. UDan Olson unayo ividiyo entle kule (kwaye inxibelelana njani neeSimpsons, ngakumbi) kunye nenye ngendlela ukubanga into kukuthetha uye waba yimpendulo ezenzekelayo xa into oyenzayo okanye oyithethayo igxekwa, kodwa nokuba kukukrwela nje umphezulu wendlela isuti kunye nenkcubeko ezinxibelelana ngayo. Ndifuna nje ukuba ube nokuqonda okusebenzayo kokuthotywa.
Ke, oko kusibuyisela umva ukuya 40k . Abantu be IWarhammer 40k (abo bangakhange bawele kwiziphithiphithi zobuqhetseba) bahlala kwinkqubo yezopolitiko. Urhulumente unamandla angathintelwanga, abemi ecaleni kwamalungelo, inkonzo yasemkhosini ikufuphi-kwaye inyanzelekile, kwaye amasebe amaninzi karhulumente kunye nemikhosi akanalo uxanduva. Inkolo exhaswa ngurhulumente inyanzelekile kwaye iyacinezela, kwaye urhulumente wakhiwe malunga ne-xenophobia zombini ngokomfuziselo nangokoqobo (ukuzonda nawuphi na umntu ngaphandle kwemigaqo eyamkelweyo kubhaliwe kumgaqo-nkqubo welizwe, kunye nentiyo yabaphambukeli).
Kuyo nayiphi na inqanaba, ifayile ye- IWarhammer iphela ayilulo uhlobo lendawo ongathanda ukuhlala kuyo. Kumiselwe kaninzi ngaphakathi kwe-canon ukuba ubomi bommi ophakathi, ukuyibeka kakuhle, inkunkuma. Inkqubo ayisebenzi ngokufanelekileyo kwinqanaba elihlekisayo, ngendlala eyandileyo kunye neeplanethi ngamanye amaxesha zishiya zishiyiwe kwiziphelo zazo ezoyikisayo kuba akukho mntu wayeyazi ukuba basengxakini. Umkhosi ongathintelwayo uchitha ixesha elininzi exabana nezinye izinto zomkhosi, amaxesha amaninzi ukuya kugonyamelo. Isebenza ngcono njengendawo emnyama ye-fascism kunalo naluphi na uhlobo lokuxhaswa kwayo. Ocela umbuzo: Kutheni le nto ama-fascists okwenyani e / pol / uthambekele kuyo?
Okokuqala yingxaki yokuba yonke into ethandabuzekayo iya kuthi ekugqibeleni ibaleke-loo mthetho wePoe ukhuphe. Ukuze usondele ngokufanelekileyo kwi-satire, kuya kufuneka uqaphele kakhulu ukuba kudlala kangakanani, kwaye kulapho ke umba: Andiqondi ukuba uWarhammer 40k uyazi ukuba uWarhammer 40k udlala kangakanani. Ukusekwa akunangqondo ewe (ndiyathetha, i-Primarch yeRaven Guard ibizwa ngokoqobo ukuba yiCorvus Corax, yinto leyo, kwaye ewe, iseyenye yezahluko zam endizithandayo) kodwa ngamanye amaxesha kubonakala ngathi ithatha ingqalelo enkulu.
Useto lwalusetyenziselwa ukuhlekisa ngokugqithileyo, kunye nabalinganiswa abanjengo-Obiwan Sherlock Clousseau ebaleka ejikeleza (hayi nyani, ngumlingiswa wokwenyani), kodwa izinto ezihlekisayo ezicace gca ziye zadlalwa kule minyaka idlulileyo, eshiya nje izinto ezimnyama zazizolisa ukusebenzisa useto. Kukho isizathu sokuba i-grimdark, ixesha elamkelwa ngokubanzi le-intanethi ngento ethile ibe yinto engenangqondo (kwaye ngokungeyomfuneko), ithathe igama layo IWarhammer 40k Umgca wethegi. Ngaphandle kwento yokumnyama emnyama kwindalo iphela, konke okushiyekileyo bubumnyama obuMnyama bexesha elizayo.
Kodwa kufanele kubekho okungaphezulu kunoko. Ngaphandle kwemeko yokuhlekisa, useto lusenza intlekisa ngobuqhetseba ngokubonisa iziphumo zolawulo lobuzwilakhe njengokutshabalalisa. Abalinganiswa abanobuqhawe kunye namaqela ngokubanzi abo bathambekele ekubeni ngoozwilakhe bokucinezela, ukusuka kwiiNdawo zoLwandle lwaseManzini ezinje ngeeUltramarines kunye neSalamanders ukuya kumanani eThala leeNcwadi aMnyama anjengeCiaphias Cane, IQHAWE LOMPHAKATHI! Nabani na oboleka nelona xabiso lincinci lokucinga ngoku IWarhammer 40k Kuya kufuneka ukuba baqonde ukuba bayadlala.
Hayi. Ukucinga ngokugxekayo. Ingangumbandela lowo. Ke masithethe malunga nenye / ipol / uhlaselo oluhlala lusebenzisa imifanekiso evela eWarhammer 40k njengepropaganda: iGamerGate.
Zininzi izinto ezinegalelo kwiGamerGate, phantse zonke zijikeleza ukuzonda abantu basetyhini, abantu abanemibala, ukumkanikazi kunye nabantu abadlulayo, kunye nokubuyela umva ngokuchasene nokubonakala kwabo okwandileyo kwinkcubeko nakumajelo eendaba. Kodwa ngelixa imigaqo yokuziphatha kwimidlalo yobuntatheli yayihlala ikho umsi wokufihla indlela abaziphethe ngayo, kukho into enomdla malunga nendlela abakhethe ngayo ukunxibelelana nescreen. Eyona nto iqhelekileyo endiyibonileyo ijolise kubagxeki bomdlalo (ngaphandle kohlukumezo ngokubanzi) yayisisicelo esinqabileyo sokungazisi ezopolitiko kuvavanyo lwabo.
Ngoku eso sisicelo esingenangqondo ebusweni bayo; Onke amajelo osasazo akanakuthintelwa kwezopolitiko, ngenxa yokuba enziwe kwaye esetyenziswa kwimeko yezopolitiko, ke ukucela umntu ukuba aphonononge into ngokungazenzisiyo kunokubangela into efana nekaJim Sterling Ipesenti ye-100 yoVavanyo lweNjongo FF13 . Kwaye kutheni befuna loo nto?
Kuba emva koko akufuneki bacinge ngayo.
Oku kubonakala kuyingcambu yeempembelelo ezininzi zokuhlukumeza-mhlawumbi kungengenxa yokuba nenzondo yabasetyhini okanye abancinci, kodwa nangoku ngaphakathi ngaphakathi: umnqweno wokufaka iminwe yabo ezindlebeni zabo kwaye benze ngathi imiba yezopolitiko ayikho. Kungenxa yoko abanye abantu besiva isidingo sokuchitha iminyaka esi-7 edlulileyo behlukumeza uAnita Sarkeesian-hayi kuba ezama ukuthatha imidlalo yabo, kodwa kungenxa yokuba efuna ukuba bacinge ngokunzulu ngale midlalo. Sebenzisa umzekelo kolu feni, emva kukaJanuwari 40k Inqaku, bendinabantu abaphuma kwimithi yokundixelela malunga nezizathu zokuba abantu basetyhini bangabinayo i-Space Marines okanye bandibize nje ngokuba yi-mangina, ndingafuni kwaphela ukucinga nzulu malunga nomdlalo ekuthiwa siyawuthanda kwaye siyityeshele inqaku lam elibanzi (okanye inyani yokuba sele ndijongile amanqaku abo kwinqaku ngokwalo).
Xa uyilahla ngokupheleleyo indlela ocinga ngayo, kuya kuba lula ukuyamkela IWarhammer 40k Uyilo lwamaFascist. Ewe kunjalo i-fascism ilungile: abantu abaphakathi 40k Ngaba ngama-fascists, kwaye ngabafana abalungileyo kuba bangabantu-i-ergo, i-fascism yabo kufuneka ilungile. Ayikhe ithi qatha ezingqondweni zabo into yokuba abantu ayingobafana abalungileyo. (Ngokwenyani ndike ndaphikisa ukuba iCraftworld Eldar yeyona mizekelo icacileyo yamagorha kwi 40k Indalo iphela, kwaye uBukhosi baseTau bubonisa elona themba lilungileyo lokugcina le ndawo.) Kwaye xa sele ukholelwa izimvo ezikhoyo kwisicatshulwa, kuya kuba lula kakhulu ukungaziniki iingcinga zakho ezigxekayo, yiyo loo nto izixhobo ezibalulekileyo zibaluleke kangaka.
Kungenxa yoko le nto kubalulekile ukuba abadali bacinge ngomyalezo abawuthumelayo kunye nemisebenzi yabo. IWarhammer 40k luchasene ngokungagungqiyo noluntu (uninzi lweendaba zosasazo lwaphuma e-UK phakathi nasekupheleni kweminyaka yama-80s… kazi kunokwenzeka inxulumene noThatcher?), Kodwa iyangcungcutheka kakhulu kweso sigwebo ukuthwala nabuphi na ubunzima phakathi kwabantu abangafuni ukusiva. Andikukhuthazi ukuba batshintshe nantoni na ephambili- khumbula, ndiyawuthanda lo mdlalo- kodwa mhlawumbi ukuba nemiboniso embalwa egxininisa ukuba le nkqubo ingaluncedo kangakanani. Kwaye, kunokuba kuhle ukufumana abanye abalinganiswa abangabandakanyekanga kwiiLwandle zaseManzini.
Njengokuba ndibukele iziphumo zonyulo ezothusayo ngokuhlwa ngoLwesibini ebusuku, ndiye ndazibona ndibhadula kwezinye zeendawo ezinoburharha endikhe ndazihlola kuphando, ukubona ukuba bazithatha njani iindaba. Babenemincili ngokwendalo, kwaye ngaxa lithile ndaphinda ndabona lo mfanekiso kaTrump, ubuso bakhe babufotokelwe kumzimba kaThixo oqaqambileyo woMlawuli.
Ndithathe ilaptop yam ivaliwe ndicaphukile (njengoko bendisenza amatyeli aliqela ngorhatya) kwaye amehlo am atsaliwe kwi-Imperial Knight ebendiyipeyhile ngaloo ntsasa ukuze ndisuse ingqondo yam kunyulo, ndihleli edesikeni yam. Ndabanjwa ngokufutshane kunye nomnqweno wokuyiphosa kwigumbi. Ngethamsanqa umnqweno udlulile, ngokuyinxenye kuba yincinci yeedola ezili-140 (kwaye akukho nanye kula maphutha kaLady Kendra), kodwa nangenxa yokuba ndagqiba kudala ukuba ndingaze ndivumele amalungu amabi kakhulu e-fanbase andigxothe kuwo. Ke nokuba babi kangakanani abanye baba balandeli, sukubavumela bakukholise ukuba ungawuthandi umdlalo.
Kodwa ukuba uTrump nguMlawuli, ndiyabona ukuba kutheni abanye abantu befuna ukuwela kwiChaos.
Ngaba ufuna amanye amabali anje? Yiba ngumbhalisi kwaye uxhase indawo!
