Current events have also been defined increasingly by fake images or fake videos that can be made increasingly realistic-looking. There doesn't seem to be any effective mechanism to stop these kinds of lies from spreading. Social media engagement farming incentivizes this kind of content and whatever fact checking or correction that comes after is too slow to reverse the effects of misinformation.

They successfully kept western leftists overpaid and spewing fashionable nonsense in the academy instead of acting in the world. The fact that left-wing intellectuals are so trash is engineered on purpose.
Jacques Lacan and his fake ass math equations in particular can only be explained this way as a literal psyop on academia.
Chomsky was in bed deep with Epstein and the left has turned themselves into a pretzel trying to explain it . Foucault, Sartre, De Beauvoir were defenders of pedophilia. Foucault might actually have been a pedophile! Arendt (a jew) was fornicating with a Nazi (Heidegger) and ties herself into a pretzel defending it (after also defending American segregation for some reason???), Deleuze killed himself. Althusser went crazy and killed his wife. Wilheilm Reich went just as loony related to the "orgone" machine (despite mass psychology of fascism being a decent-ish book).
Please just leave this decadent and degenerate misapplication of "philosophy" in the dust-bin where it belongs. Baudrillard is part of this.

i think a lot of art could be described as fashionable nonsense, and hyperreality is an artistic philosophy. its interesting to contemplate the root concept of a map overflowing its territory, however consuming long tracts of resulting thought is questionably useful. i didnt mind reading some of baudrillard's cool thoughts books, application of hyperreality was well translated via small vignettes of thinking. but i couldnt finish the book discussed here, it's still sitting somewhere bookmarked.
