Yes, for the more informed among them, you could call it that, or:
"Strategic ignorance (also called deliberate ignorance or wilful blindness) is the intentional avoidance of information because possessing it would impose costs, obligations, or constraints that reduce expected utility."
There is a word for it, but these people would never think of applying it to their peers because they themselves are the epitome of its meaning, which is in turn evidenced by their inability to recognize this fact: ignorance.
I never liked him with his canned laughter sitcom and his conformist suburban humor—a bit like a pop song that hasn't aged well, the kind that was successful in its day but is so unoriginal, boring, and unimaginative that no one wants to hear it anymore.
Zimmermann challenged these regulations in an imaginative way. In 1995, he published the entire source code of PGP in a hardback book, via MIT Press, which was distributed and sold widely. Anyone wishing to build their own copy of PGP could cut off the covers, separate the pages, and scan them using an OCR program (or conceivably enter it as a type-in program if OCR software was not available), creating a set of source code text files. One could then build the application using the freely available GNU Compiler Collection. PGP would thus be available anywhere in the world. The claimed principle was simple: export of munitions—guns, bombs, planes, and software—was (and remains) restricted; but the export of books is protected by the First Amendment. The question was never tested in court with respect to PGP. In cases addressing other encryption software, however, two federal appeals courts have established the rule that cryptographic software source code is speech protected by the First Amendment (the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in the Bernstein case and the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in the Junger case)...
Twitter isn't even an open platform anymore since Musk took over, which completely defeats the purpose of this application—if you need an account to see content, it's hard to say that it's still a platform for public statements, since the content simply isn't publicly available anymore.
That is exactly what Lizzy Magie, the inventor of Monopoly, wanted to achieve. However, she had assumed that people would realize how utterly wrong the rules of the game were once they had finished playing.
Unfortunately, this has never been the case, as evidenced by the fact that instead of Magie, an unscrupulous scumbag named Charles Darrow became the first multimillionaire in the board game industry because he bought the game idea from her for a ridiculously low amount and without any royalty rights, and then sold the publishing rights to the Parker brothers, who made even more money with it.
This explains why Monopoly, instead of being a game critical of capitalism as originally intended, became a propaganda tool for capitalism.
It couldn't be more absurd, but that's how our world is.
It's just a shame that even the party that has adopted the donkey as its symbol doesn't represent the workers at all – they don't seem to have any major objections to a fascist dictatorship under the rule of a rapist, which has even been confirmed by the dysfunctional legal system that the donkeys believe in so fervently. But hey, the donkey has to be paid, after all—even if it hasn't worked at all for decades.
Yes, that's true, of course, and it's the reason why no clear patterns can be found here. However, as is often the case with conspiracy theories, this could also be dismissed as a distraction from the conspiracy.
But you are absolutely right: we should stick to the facts—this idea is just a nightmare scenario for me because even in democratic systems it would make freedom, self-determination, and above all the hope for better times almost completely impossible.
That we may be living in a world where the super-rich and powerful from all countries have conspired to establish a kind of global absolutist monarchy of the utterly unscrupulous, in which fabricated conflicts between countries serve mostly to distract from the fact that those pulling the strings behind the scenes have already undermined every political system and are simply pitting people against each other in order to secure even more power for themselves through war, mass surveillance, propaganda, the rationing of essential goods, and blatant destruction.
Please note: This is a conspiracy theory with no solid evidence, not a fact, but a dystopia that unfortunately seems increasingly realistic these days.
In my home country (Germany), there is a cake called Frankfurter Kranz that definitely expresses this sentiment as well: maximum butter!
This cake was especially popular right after World War II because people wanted to show that they had enough again to not only survive, but also to lavish.
I would say that the classic version with beef fillet, prosciutto, and morels is more of an upper-class dish, as the ingredients are expensive and it is time-consuming to prepare.
"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back at you."
Unfortunately, this is still very relevant today, as the methods used by fascists remain largely the same...
