Linh Dinh on Hyperreal vs. Authentic

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE The brilliant Linh Dinh‘s latest, an interview with João Guimaraes, includes reflections on the hyperreal vs. authentic (i.e. mediated vs. reality). Synchronistically, my latest essay begins: “There are disasters, and there are media representations of disasters. But what if representations are the worst disasters of all?” Even more synchronistically: Last Monday night, after I had triumphantly finished that piece on the horrors of life on the internet, which includes a rant against cell phones and a modest amount of bragging about how I do everything on only one device—a laptop—I used “force shutdown” to turn off my laptop…

Linh Dinh on “Brave New Reset”

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE In “Brave New Reset” Linh Dinh says Cormac McCarthy’s The Road (2006) and Zhang Yingyu’s The Book of Swindles (1617) resonate with today’s civilizational meltdown and ever-escalating war: “Nothing flips over the nicely appointed table of civilization like war. That’s where we’re headed, on multiple fronts. The main reason for this is, again, scarcity. Grabbing your water, oil, food and women, your enemy won’t just snarl, but kill you. In too many places, that savage energy needs an urgent release.” Linh also mentions getting “Drugged, Robbed But Not Knifed.”

Maisoon Rice Questions Turkey-Syria “HAARPquake”; Linh Dinh on “A Distant Episode”

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE First half-hour: Maisoon Rice, a British-Palestinian-Pakistani blogger and activist, is no fan of Zionism or imperialism. She contacted me after last week’s devastating and tragic earthquake to suggest that it might not have been entirely natural. As one of tomorrow’s False Flag Weekly Newsstories puts it: “Turkey denounces ‘psychological war’ as Western consulates close—days later, huge earthquake hits.” Along with the possible HAARPquake, we’ll also discuss tomorrow’s 44th anniversary of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, Israel’s Haifa port project and the Belt and Road initiative, the new ultra-extremist Israeli government’s acceleration of the Palestinian genocide, and more. Maisoon writes: “They…

Linh Dinh on Globetrotting Through the Scamdemic

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE Expatriate American writer-photographer Linh Dinh fled Vietnam shortly before the first big lockdown and spent the rest of the scamdemic flitting from country to country, one step ahead of the brain police. Laos…Cairo…Alexandria…Aswan…Tirana…Cape Town…Klos….Swakopmund…Rehoboth…Windhoek…these are just some of the places Linh has immortalized in his “Postcards from the End of [the] America[n Empire]” (pictures here and articles here). Now that he’s back in a time zone compatible with my live radio show, it’s time for Linh to resume his duties as the Roving Global Correspondent for Truth Jihad Radio. In this interview we discuss some of the many…

LIVE RADIO! Thaddeus Kozinski: “Foucault Told the Truth”; Linh Dinh on Globetrotting Through the Scamdemic

Kevin Barrett

Listen live Fridays 8 to 10 Eastern on Revolution.Radio later archived at https://kevinbarrett.substack.com First hour: Prof. Thaddeus Kozinski says “Foucault Told the Truth.” Subhead: “About the Kingdom of Darkness.” The essay begins: “Michel Foucault was committed to the ‘truth’ that discourse is nothing but the surreptitiously coercive use of power, and the more hidden the power, the more effective the coercion. The power hiding behind claims to truth is so all-pervasive and effective that the very person who speaks and listens to discourse is itself its product and mouthpiece.” Kozinski argues that Foucault’s words apply in spades to the scamdemic era: “2020 was…

Linh Dinh’s latest piece, fact-checked and corrected

Kevin Barrett

A chakt fooker, I mean fact checker (thanks for correcting that!) recently interviewed me for what appears to be a forthcoming hit piece against Veterans Today. Melissa Goldin of NewsGuard asked me questions like: Is VT anti-Semitic? Is VT pro-Russian? Does VT vet its articles? Does it correct any misinformation they contain? And would I please supply an example of an article I had corrected? I decided that I’d better rush out and find some anti-Semitic pro-Russian articles to vet and correct. As if by magic, Linh Dinh’s new piece arrived in my inbox. After reading and fact-checking it, I…

Linh Dinh from South Africa: “Why I’m Leaving the Unz Review”

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE Notable writer, poet, and photo-essayist Linh Dinh, Truth Jihad Radio’s roving global correspondent, left America years ago. Now he says he is leaving the Unz Review and will henceforth publish only at linhdinhphotos.blogspot.com. In both cases, the stupidity and vulgarity of (some) Americans hastened his departure. During the first half of this interview Linh discusses his experiences in Cape Town, South Africa. Apparently he annoyed certain white racist commenters by blaspheming against their fervent conviction that all of post-apartheid South Africa is a crime-ridden hellhole experiencing “white genocide.” The fact that millions of white South Africans are living happy, privileged…
