It’s not that they didn’t have faith. They simply didn’t read or understand Marx, most of the time.

It really was “9/11 2!”

Fanny Kaplan. Socialist Revolutionary Party. Tried to kill Lenin.

A bit of a placeholder, tbh, but she’s pretty and opportunists always call me “ultra left,” so yeah.

Fixed it. Simone Weil.

We are definitionally in an ice age. There are polar ice caps. Of course we are not far from ending that.

Most people are not even aware of their need to conform. They live under the illusion that they follow their own ideas and inclinations, that they are individualists, that they have arrived at their opinions as the result of their own thinking—and that it just happens that their ideas are the same as those of the majority

Erich Fromm

Solidarity comrade

Fair enough. Makes sense why there’s so much emphasis on practice (besides that being where the revolution comes from) because you kind of have to live dialectical materialism to understand it fully.

Glad your confidence is boosted. Congrats on the hormones! Good luck :3.

It’s probably “normal.” Sounds familiar anyway.

Short answer: “man” “woman” and “nonbinary” aren’t real and there is no evidence to analyze to see which category you belong to. Over time you will figure out your vast and multifaceted preferences.

Longer, better answer: you should read this recent hexbear post (well, mostly the comments).

I just started concerta and it’s pretty nice. All it changed is that there’s less miserable time in between tasks where I’m trying to transition or stuck on my phone. Haters and losers say ADHD meds turn you into a mindless drone but that is not true. Most of my extra focus has gone towards “unproductive” hyperfixations (although I’ll try to get more work done, it just didn’t seem as important for a bit). There’s the expectation in this capitalist society that if you’re using drugs to focus better all that extra ability to do things belongs to the exploiters, but you can certainly use it only occasionally when you need it for work and otherwise to empower yourself to do what you like more in free time.

Generic gamer aesthetic I’m guessing? I agree it looks pretty cool and the average gamer’s room looks much worse.

Hamas supports it, so do I.

Whenever I pay attention to the world it seems to real and wonderful to be believed.

More!

Yes, co-opt us

I was a little annoyed with the general low quality of posts, but not you specifically.

Your reply is literally bad faith sarcasm

It’s not bad faith because I’m not debating you. Sarcasm isn’t bad.

You can create your own community where you not allow these kind of posts if you want then, but you have no right to impose what you want on a community that is not yours

No I can’t, there’s only one SRS. IMO the dunk tank is too heavy, but others here agree we should raise the standards a little.

It does matter! All Zionists must be exposed and it is your problem if you don’t agree. Please don’t mini mod/bully me about me that.

We’ve already exposed these exact talking points before. There is no need to do so again. Don’t take this as an insult, just comradely criticism.

You also mentioned that this was just some random person on the internet. They are not. They are very popular and their opinion influence a lot of people. Taking away their popularity by showing their bad takes it’s important for people not to fall for them

No one who might be listening to this person is going to see this and change their mind. Yes, some twitter idiot with 40k followers is a inconsequential nobody.

No, this take has been posted a ton of times on here. It doesn’t matter if it’s a new person. I’m not being toxic I’m promoting a higher standard of posting that other people also want.

Also, don’t be a hypocrite.

“You’ll have to be a miserable people one day so don’t get used to freedom.” That’s exactly why I don’t want to be on my phone.

What I mean is “reading and drawing and exploring outside and playing games are much more fun than whatever fake stimulation you get from a screen.”

I feel like it would be better to explain why too much time on tech is bad and encourage them to spend their time doing physical things or reading rather than acting like they “don’t deserve” it.
