The Butlerian Jihad is a concept from the Dune series. The exact nature of it is unknown, but it was some sort of conflict that resulted in the total abolishment of computers and other "thinking machines" and a religious and cultural taboo on creating any machine that thinks or emulates humans.

Judith Butler is named Butler.

What gets me is that that isn't even true. The Italian fascists were famously bad at day-to-day governing in Italy.

By like the mid 1930s the nazis had already turned the German economy into a fucked up ponzi scheme, and the Italian fascists had to create the second most publicly owned economy in the world because they had a government policy of buying every failing italian company and then mandating that nothing change about how the company was run.

Did you know that slaves imported to the 13 colonies used to be branded with the sigil of the duke of york (Later king of Scotland/England) because the royal african company was owned by the monarchy and they had a monopoly on the slave trade

I can never listen to QAA again after they did an episode on that time Kate Middleton disappeared off the face of the planet for a couple of weeks and went an hour without mentioning the literal fake photos the royals released to pretend everything was fine. Like they just straight up did not mention it by the time I gave up.
