For decades, thinkers like Hannah Arendt, Karl Polanyi, and many others
have repeatedly warned us that fascism is the direct consequence of
subordinating human needs to the needs of the market. Having willfully
ignored the lessons of history, we have allowed corporate greed to
transform our media ecosystem into one that structurally favors
authoritarian populism.
I love how the search function on this site is absolute garbage. I can look up a post word for word and I will NEVER find it
Pro tip:
Wanna find a post?
Write out what you remember into a Google search.
After you write that out, end with site:tumblr.com
Google will search for your text on just tumblr
In my experience, it’s way more effective than searching through Tumblr
(you can use site:SITENAME.com to search any site btws)
This usually works but for some reason a lot of posts get indexed on google from a person’s URL based on the posts that were recently reblogged on page 1, meaning that this is only a tiny bit more reliable.
I HAVE a solution to this, you have to write down site:tumblr.com/post “ “
and then write a direct quote (could be a fraction of a sentence) into the quotations, I’ve been doing this for years, and it’s so useful, it works like 99% of the time
(the more popular a post is the more likely you’ll find it)
I wish there was a way to tell companies that I dislike an ad so much that I will actively avoid buying anything from them because of it
So slightly unrelated but still relevant, generally when I come across an ad that just really fuckin annoys me for whatever reason I’ll go into Google and just type different variations of “I hate ‘x’ product” like 5 times until googles algorithm picks it up an I never see an ad for that product again. It’s amazing.
Use that cooperate spyware to your advantage
Channel your incantations through Google to banish evil ads
