when you're so not mad you out page count the equivalent of a capitalism car manual, incoherent drivel from the least annoying ancap, and a series literally known for extremely meticulous and plentiful worldbuilding, for the equivalent of a shower argument against people who dislike you on twitter. holy shit. i'd feel bad if she deserved pity :what-the-hell:

I feel like I've scoured this image for hints. Who tf is Joanne and in what way is she related to this screenshot?

Yeah, the original post uses too many levels of indirection for me to glean any meaning from it. @WhyEssEff what's this post about? This isn't the right place to subtweet, uh, subbear... subear?

Figured out it. JK Rowling (Joanne), beloved author of the Harry Potter series and the world's least censored transphobe, has once again published some transphobia. This time it's a book, and the book is very very long. The book is longer than the other books pictured in the screenshot.

Shit, Capital is only 800 pages? I should really read that some time.

[-] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

Be warned, tho. It's 659 pages about coats and linen before Marx and Engels kiss for the first time.

Wtf dont spoil it

800 pages except Marx writes every single one of his sentences with the density of what would be 5 sentences from another author.

Unpacking his writing is work. You can re-read his paragaphs 5 times and still pull out new understanding from them. It is not a quick read.

Honestly, State and Revolution is incredibly dense itself despite being about 100 pages for similar reasons

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
